Fallout 76 Tips & Tricks: Put Items on Shelves 

love how they made useless shelves good job Bethesda

The fact that there’s a 30 minute tutorial on putting items on shelves is very Bethesda

I wish we could just put stuff on shelves without all the work a rounds, after all that is what shelves are for. ! I would also like to put items on tables especially the Garden patio table with the big umbrella on top ,

To make things a little easier for peeps. You can hide the conduit completely underneath the shelf by using a flamethrower trap to destroy the shelf, turning it invisible. Then place your stacked items inside the “ghosted shelf”. Go to your CAMP bench and repair all items.

Good video, thanks, but honestly, Bethesda, why do you have to make stuff like decorating a shelf so damn complicated?!

Idk why we can’t just grab and place like fallout 4 i had a whole table with all the balls lol

Love it, but I need more CAMP budget.

I actually like the rugs showing on the shelves, it doubles as a shelf liner. I just wish I could use junk items for this, like the bird decoration and lighthouse souvenir. I know I can put them in display cases, but I would like to know if there's any way to get them on shelves instead.

I’ve got some bare shelves and I’ve only used this once before, had forgot how to do it tbh so the timing was perfect! Great tips...

Woah that's awesome! Building settlements in FO 4 has always been my favorite activity, besides exploring the world. I often thought that my shelves look so empty in my camp! This is a great idea and tutorial! I just wish my camp budget wasn't maxed already LOL

This video was very helpful. I didn't have the power connectors but I was able to use the little octopus and welcome mats to get good results on the open shelves.

Game is so bugged that you can place two rugs on a conduit but cant place walls in line with the floor 😅

It's amazing you can put the radio on any bench, shelf, table, anywhere... all we want is that for items 😆🥴

This is perfect! I finally have a method for getting objects onto the shelves, I just wish Bethesda didn't decide that wall shelves wouldn't be in the game except for a 300 atom purchase that I can't find on the shop or through opening a ticket on their site. Bethesda, please put in the wall shelves from fallout 4 as a schematic, even if it's something nutty where you can only get the schematic at a gold bullion vendor at least make it possible to acquire.

Thanks for the excellent tip! I will definitely need to start using this. I have a shelf in one of my rooms that is crying out for some decorations.

In the seventies, it was common for people to put decorative shelf paper in the kitchen. I think that it had a powder that killed roaches or some kind of chemical that didn't get on your dishes.

This was a good video. Sometiems I need the step by step that other guides skip over. Thanks for that. Keep up the fo76 vids!

Glove this video. Just found it channel through youtube algorithm and I must say u have a new fan. Can't wait to watch all ur backlog. Keep it up. And ty

I’ve been using the pressure plate method but I saw TNG do this and he pointed me this way. So, thank you! Amazing 🤩

2 years later and I'm just now finding this video but it has been so helpful. Unfortunately I don't have a lot of items but it's still fun to practice doing it. I just wish I could hide the conduit afterwards. Thanks for the informative video!

Thanks for this video, I was wondering how to do just this. I do need more Camp budget and I don’t feel like I have a huge camp.

Thanks, this will really help me with future camp designs

Very helpful and complete tutorial. Excellent video! Thank you!

Great video, will be trying this out tonight 👍

I hate how i have to even look up how to place things onto a shelf in the first place, but amazing video either way, very helpful

Thanks for the video! Very well explained. Totally wanna do this.

Thank you for showing this!!! Can’t wait for the return of Let’s Play Fallout 76 also! U guys are great 👍🏼

Great video! That's much easier than drop merging, and less time consuming. A note for build budget, build small and decorate heavy. The reason I say this is because even though things like floors, walls, and roofs seem to take less budget than a lamp, trying to fill a large area and make it look like someone actually lives there is very budget consuming. So, for my camp, I have the flying fortress prefab, which is essentially 1x4, and its perfect. Then right beside it I have my guest house, which is a 1x4 building with a front porch, and the house has everything, all work benches (including a power armor station), cooking, sink, bedroom. I always try to think, "If this was my real wasteland house, how would it look?" I feel like that line of thinking always gets me the best results. Wow, that went off on a whole other tangient didn't it? My bad😅

This helped so much!

Thanks for the tutorial! Super helpful and informative. :D

Thanks W.D., I bookmarked this.

Great tips and tricks breakdown. You can also use the sink method. It is less budget heavy but probably just as finicky when placing items on shelves. Almost every time when you place your camp there will be a sink spot. If you try to place an item there it will sink down but still be green. After you build it the item will pop up out of the ground. Sometimes you might have to move things around in the sink hole until you find the green zone. Basically you place items on the top of your shelf that you want on the bottom portion of your shelf. Move the shelf into the sink spot and the items will pop down. It takes a bit of planning and getting the right increment of depth is the finicky part. Rotomon Gaming has a couple of videos going over this on his channel. To me this is 76's rug glitch and it is amazing. 😁

Wow! thank you so much! I hope I have enough patience to do this but those shelves look amazing haha ^^

Thank u lady been looking for hundreds of hours to put things in my shelf 😃

Thank you for your video!! It's very useful

Thabk you so much for this! I managed to do this with a regular conduit and one mat! Also if you pick up the item you want on the shelf and wiggle it around a little bit you should be able to place it back down on the shelf, then you can pick up the conduit and mat seperatley and leave the item on the shelf with zero mat 😊

Thnx for another GREAT tips & tricks WD 🙂👍

Great explanation! Thanks!

Just a few hours decorating? *laughs in fallout 3 and 4mm tables.*

Thanks for the tips. I have always wanted to fill those empty shelves.

I always wondered how to do this. Thank you so much 😀

Thanks for the tips! Really usefull

Awesome video, I do not know why Bethesda cannot make it so we do not have to do tricks to put stuff on shelves.

Love the tutorial, thanks 😊

Looks like collecting all those clean items is finally gonna come in handy, thanks!

Awesome! loved ur tips! thx a lot

Super helpful . Thanks

This. Is. Awesome! Thank you for sharing.

very cool ive only used the shop shelves and can get top bottom and some small items on the mid shelve this is very great show and tell

You sound like such a genuinely nice person, wishing you the best =)

thank you, made it so easy

That was all news to me - thank you!

didn't know about this and I have been playing since the B.E.T.A. thank you :D

I love it thanks for the help

I bounce objects from the top down into the shelves. Yes some camps dont have a bounce area but this is a much more complicated way of doing things.

Great video! I didn't know we could do that! Thx! Keep on posting more Fo76 videos plz ;-)

VERY meticulous. I really like the attention to detail.

A friend of mine showed me how to do this with a manikin and a pressure plate/ You can move items from the top, down to the bottom of the shelf.

This is very cool , i appreciate that

You make me want to rebuild my camp with this trick

thank You love. This also works fine on the PC version.XD You got my SUB also:)

thank you good job

Excellent

Nice tips for beginner like me. Btw where did you get the metal shelves plan? Im looking for 2 weeks now and no luck

Many Thanks!

Bethesda see ppl doing this and doesn’t add it in as a feature is what pisses me off

I think it's amazing to see things like this and all of the items and space being used. I made a tiny structure with 3 vending machines and I've been at my build limit for a while now. If I did a video of my camp I'd have a quarter of what is in this bit I cant add anything else to it. Does your build limit change when you get to a higher level?

Great video 👍🏻

Also thank you, now i know how to put stuff on shelfs. Problem today for me is my budget is almost used up completely.

Instead of the game creators making it easy for the users, the users create an own way to outsmart the game creators lack of love for detail. Crazy

Love this ! thank you, gonna spend a few hours now making home decorations in game :D

Mean while at Bethesda: shelves will be a great way to decorate peoples homes let them have several different types oh yeah that’s great Mr Howard they can’t put items on the shelves unless they go for a really long and overly complicated way . Todd : so it just works ?

Thank you

Can conducts be connected like in a square and embedded underground the same way in Fallout 4 with a pillar.

You're a genius!

now that I think about ur camp is amazing 😮 & mine is missing too much of that 🤔

For people moving camp a lot, can we make plans of these ?

Thanks

I dont get it that this isnt a option in the game and that it takes so much space. We need unlimited space and dont tell me bethesda, it doesnt work, cause it just works

Nice job, but can you blue print each decorated shelf?

Nice video and helped answer 1 of questions 🙂. My other question is ow do people put things like there teddy bear collection on these shelves since you collect them and not build them?

Thx

Very nice camp. But my big question is how do you make wallpaper apply to window tiles?

You would of thought they would just letting you loot stuff and place it on a shelf without all this messing about. We are in 2020, lol maybe the next gen consoles will have this. 🤣🤣🤣

It's ridcoulous you can't just put stuff on the shelf 😂

Damn it I thought this was a work around for storage space. I have had to sell probably 8 thousand in caps of bulk steel by now.

This was a method used in FO4 to overpass the blocking of wires trow walls. Goin to try the TVs inside walls and much more. Plz just reply if you still have your account :) Ty and hf out there!

Question: Is there a way to put items such as Jangles the Monkey & Giddyup Buttercup on shelves using this trick or are you only limited to just putting items from the Atomic Shop?

Is there a way to put the bears and mr fuzzy around the camp, not in a display case?

anyway to stack a display case on top of another display case ?

Where did you get all the nicknacks from? Were they all on the Atom store at some point or other? That's one thing I really miss from FO4, being able to place absolutely anything I pick up. My hubs and I stopped playing for two years or so, so I feel like I'm missing a whole lot of camp craftables. =/

So kool thanks. I love your voice.

It just looks better than a boring 4 item display case. Can it been done with world items like the bears and mr. Fuzzy and the sloth toy?

Is there a reason you can delete the rugs or conduit after you place the items on the shelf?

I don't get how shelves can't count as display cases. Think of it like this.....certain things can be put on certain display cases because of the size of the item. Small shelves get small stuff, large ones for large & so on.

Thanks for the advice! I just bought this game this weekend... can’t wait to stream it for the first time... ha 🤣

So cool

Thank you!! This will make my kitchen cute!

I subbed:)

Yeah, lights take up a lot of camp budget.
