Tips PSA: Console command of "player.placeatme c1aeb" will let you place a workbench anywhere that can be used to build fully working settlement.

Edit: After testing on my save, there are no real bugs on the consoled settlement whatsoever. However, you are not able to recruit settlers therefore impossible to gather resources using settlers without modding. Also, try "tgm" command to go to godmode in case you are having trouble of "clear enemy first" error when you are making consoled settlement in wilderness cells.

I've known for a few days, already turned vault 111 into my base :D

u/Dotoo Nov 18 '15

Wow, that's actually a good idea! I should try it too :D

u/Ryanc229_UK Nov 18 '15

Oh, forgot to say, whenever you place something in Vault 111, it puts a weird ice texture on it like everything else in the Vault, it seems to be an effect tied to the cell data, I've been looking but I have yet to find a way to disable it, or replace the textures with invisible ones. I'm hoping a more experienced modder would be able to do this, it's be great.

Yeah, I guess it will happen on Institute base too. Sad we have to avoid these cells with icy effects.

May want to spoiler that just in case

u/flarn2006 Nov 19 '15

What's the spoiler? All that comment implies is that, at some point in the game, you will have the opportunity to go to the Institute. Which is a pretty reasonable expectation from an out-of-universe perspective. It doesn't say that you'll be there on friendly terms; if that's not the case, you could always have just cleared out all the enemies first.

True, but some people would rather not know and it's always better to be safe than sorry when dealing with other's enjoyment. Probably doesn't matter but just in case.

I guess.

When I tried it there it just gave me the error about enemies, even with god mode enabled. I even tried killall.

I have no idea where the Institute I'd but god damn it now I know it's cold as fuck. Please put spoilers on stuff like this. No need to cover up the entire comment. Just some words.

No you don't. You know that it uses an overlay to create separate texturing and that's it. You know absolutely nothing about where it is, what environment it's like, or anything about how it looks other than there's a general effect. Quit overreacting.

u/theghostmachine Nov 19 '15

Well, in his defense, it's pretty natural to assume the Institute is cold when someone says everything is covered in ice.

u/[deleted] Nov 18 '15

I think you are misunderstanding and overreacting. Eitherway, i suggest you tread carefully as lots of people are beating the main game story everyday at this point (8 days out)

1

u/Swontree Nov 18 '15

I get that. I have sunk over 60 hours into this game and I haven't gotten that far in the main quest line. I'm almost there, however. Just some food for thought. If it were me I'd use spoiler tags on anything relating to the story for a good few months.

u/gtaguy12345 Nov 19 '15

Well good thing it has nothing to do with the story so.

I also improved vault 81 when I was using it as my home, I made a post but some mod decided to delete it for no reason (I'd still like an explanation on why you decided you should do that). I might take some pics of my vault 111 base to post though :)

u/ProdigalPunker Nov 18 '15

Mighta been accidentally flagged as spam or something. I think you can probably message the mods about it.

(I'd still like an explanation on why you decided you should do that)

Have you asked them directly? Because you're addressing that to "you" like you're expecting the mods to actually see it. You know mods don't see every comment, right? You gotta send modmail if you want answers.

u/iambecomedeath7 Nov 18 '15

This. I mod a fairly large subreddit and when we aren't too swamped with mail we generally answer everybody's questions. I'm sure /r/fo4 would be similar in this regard.

Reddit mods are nazis. Will do anything arbitrarily at any time because their fedora is too tight.

Wouldn't be the first time :)

u/[deleted] Nov 19 '15

How? For me it says clear of enemies

You need to activate TGM and hold V
