Missy I appreciate your video very much actually I'm going to recommend it to my friend because he needs all this kind of information....so thank y very much for your video
For your first blueprint, the place anywhere stair posts, you don't actually need a conduit. It can be any floor decor as well; I like to use the small shooting can.
@festivizednugget1288 yes, I used to use floor decor but for some reason I just found the conduit easier to place 😊 I've found that many things can be swapped out that way
@@Bustingmyashley Blueprints are very flexible; I prefer to keep my cost of blueprints low. Even though I own so much scrap, it is a lesson I learned in my early days of the game I just can't quite shake off.
Thank you very much vor this video - it helps me a lot, to understand how some buildings working and how i can do it by my own. Your English ist very nice and clear, thats also helpful for me as a german - i understand everything very well.
As a brand new player only a month in I am still learning how all this works. One thing I want to ask and hope you may clarify is the "why" or "how" of the blueprints. For instance, what is the purpose of the catwalk for the "place anywhere" wall? What were you doing exactly with the door and the rug and why? What problems were you "working around". Can you delete the conduit thing after placing the stair piece? Why is it called a stair piece? LOL...Having a better idea of why these blueprints would be necessary and how they go about doing what they do would help me, and I am sure others, come up with our own blueprint workarounds to solve our own distinct problems. Like just the other day I had to figure out how to merge a wood foundation into the front of my premade barn so I could add a set of stairs since they would not snap to the premade floor. I also wanted it off center. It took me almost two hours to learn what I needed to know in order to solve the problems I didn't even know I had.
Lol, those are valid questions! So most of the blueprints are kind of a way to "bypass" the building rules of the game. The game has rules where certain things will only place or snap in a certain way and these bluprints allow you to place them where you want. For example, the walls will only snap on to the edges of foundations, but with the blueprint you can freely place them where you want. The blueprints are really just a way of "tricking" the game into placing things as you want. In most cases, the catwalks/rugs/etc. in the blueprint allow things to be placed a certain way that the game wouldn't normally allow with standard building. Once you have placed the blueprints, you can delete the extra pieces (such as catwalks, power connector, rug, etc.). They are only needed to allow the blueprint to place where you want. The stair pieces are called that because they are really designed to snap to stairs. Unfortunately, the game has pretty strict rules for what it will allow with the standard building rules. In some cases there are other workarounds, but these are just some of the more common and easy to explain methods.
@@Bustingmyashley Little trick I did for the catwalk "stairs" I just snapped 2 onto a foundation. Tossed a suitcase down or something with that height and put a stein on the suitcase and Bp'd the catwalks and the stein. I also used the tin can Shooting practice instead of the suitcase to make a I guess half step lower stair. I just got back into 76 and been figuring out stuff. Your vids and many others have been a great help. I'm finally getting my "floating" base together. One thing I learned I hated.. Was foundations and stairs and not screwing something up after I removed the foundation to put in floor tiles. That was my bane in a Monorail I did. I got me some roof titles I can change and put in a ticket for the catwalks and the greenhouse kit. Catwalks make this so MUCH better. Now.. If they would just up the budget a bit, just a bit or lower the cost of lights a little. especially the neon ones.
@EastCoastGamingHFX OH yes, the catwalks are very easy to manipulate and make a blueprint to fit your needs. I have probably 5 different catwalk blueprints of different heights that I use regularly lol. I often use the cw as stairs! Glad you found it helpful, I wish you the best with your floating camp!
If you ever need help, don't fret to ask in a few discords. I know for a fact MrChurch's discord is pretty swell, but I mainly stay in Kiki B's discord, so if you ever need help with building I can always be in service.
I actually learned these tips from a number of different builders and could not pinpoint just one to reference 😊 I'm certainly not claiming these tricks as my own, I just wanted to do a simplified video on the ones that I found the most useful for new/upcoming builders ❤ Anyone who follows Mister Church knows that he is one of the best in the business!
Rule of thumb. If the originator of the trick requests or requires credit, and they can prove that they originated the technique, then credit can be added in the comments. Especially with older tricks like these. If it's a brand new trick that one person discovered, that's a bit different, but the process is similar. All that said, there are now literally hundreds of builders on YT doing tutorials. It's practically impossible to track down each trick's originator. And if a trick as been out for years, then what's the point? The entire purpose of videos like this is to help people. This culture of trick ownership and/or gatekeeping is archaic. I've done many tutorials with original tricks that no one has ever seen before. Never sought credit for any of it. If anyone wants ownership of a trick or building method, they should file for a patent.
@xxthursday09xx the conduit will just be deleted after its set in place. It's just the part of the blueprint that allows it to free-place (you can use a small floor decor item in place of the conduit for the blueprint). But the "pole" can be used for all kinds of things. It's more aesthetic than anything, but when you place it, the large floor stairpieces and catwalks will attach to it. So in that aspect, you could free place those stair sets. I've used them to fill gaps, to look like support beams, or even just give a wall a "cleaner" looking edge.
@@Bustingmyashley Before the Skyline Valley update, they accidentally gave us access to use the Fort Fortress Catwalks. This was amazing, but after the update they immediately removed them from everyone and sold it in the store.
@@Bustingmyashley I knew they would do it anyway; so I tried to tell as many people as I could about before they did so. I can only hope that people used it well before it was gone.
A magician shouldn't share their secrets... now I'm gonna have the best camps in the wasteland and tell people I did it without a bma tutorial 😂 great work here. The visual aspects really helps
@mehtarelingolien you can also try spacing the power connector a bit further way from the pole and blueprinting it that way to see if it helps. Or closer even. The power connector is the part of the blueprint that actually needs to be supported, not the poles themselves.
@@Bustingmyashley Trying to do an upper wall 'partition' thingy like Nuka Violet does. (IYKYK) Not a solid wall, but "slats". Attempting to do this on a lower (full) glass wall. There is also a glass half wall above the section I am trying to do.
@mehtarelingolien from my experience, the blueprint won't really attach to a wall piece, you would have to set it on something else if that makes sense
instead of all this convoluted shit i see in all those build videos they could make it to where we can build how we want in that circle they gave us they set the pieces to act that way they can fix it.
