I like the idea of a generator room. All this time I've been leaving generators out in the open, and they have been breaking during raids.

+Samael76 You are very welcome my friend!

Not sure why this was so satisfying to watch but i cant wait to get home and try this out.

Only need two conduits for an entire house at Sanctuary. Well the ones that already exist. Also a single 3 Power Generator can power 2 houses at Sanctuary if you only worry about putting lights, and do not use a lot of conduits to power them. In turn this means you can use Wind Turbine generators for most of the "Lighting" at Sanctuary, quiet power in short. =D

Thanks. This was a big help!

Really helpful vid dude

Wow this video was great and helped alot

This was awesome

+CursingWithCurtis Where's that Advanced Guide man? 😄 Great stuff BTW man

Basic guide or not I needed this, for as long as I've been playing fallout 4, I still could never figure out how to properly power a settlement

This is a dope ass channel. Subscribed c:

Your character's motions made it look like he was actually talking.

Thank you for this. Im new to Fallout 4 lol and the electricity is confusing. Plus the limited amount of resources. Let there be light!!

You should get the longer powerlines mod. Its very simple and saves you a lot in reducing the amount of pylons you need

@DaDunge

Just get place Everywhere and then you place the pylon close at first but then you cn move into anywhere and have as long powerlines as you want.

Thank you so much!

Whatever happened to the video that you mentioned in this one where you were gonna show us how to use the other fancy power-connectors? :( (ex. ones with the delay, or the ones that only transmit powers at night, etc etc)

Thanks

How do you connect the wires???

I was about to click on your vid until I saw "connect wire" I have CREATED LIGHT!!!

Now I got to redo my settlements... :p

I'm a bit late but I did this with taffington boathouse

Have you been to Philippines, the wires on the post look like spiderwebs.

ya sorry about that but i am back to watching vids now lol :)

I made a small prefab shack and put a switch inside the back without openings, the wire went straight through the wall and I had a switch in my house.

If the developers put all these conduits in, why not add the option of conduit tube?

The one thing in this video that is really confusing me is that you put two switches when you were trying to make your makeshift light switch. A generator connected to one switch, and then that switch connects to the other..why do you need two switches again to do that, can you just have one?

Great video help, but your stock of items are INSANE! I'll still take your ideas with me to PS4. THANKS FOR THE HELP!

Great video, keep them coming :) Sadly I don't think you can do it this neatly with a bunch of settlements while not spawning in materials, just not enough resources to go around, really cool still though.

You can just put pylons on top of buildings and that extends the length of wires. So you don't need to spam conduits.

Get the generator mod. So you won't have to have a hundred generators to power your signs.

How did you get so much material lol

I started to watch your video and thought great, until I noticed you had the capability of making almost 3000 large generators. I assumed you are on a PC where you can cheat and have unlimited resources. On the PS4, I don't have that option so the video is really for those with unlimited supplies. I like the premise though. I plan to create some power rooms over time. Thanks.

Hey Curtis you should do a massive giveaway of fallout 4! (The main reason I'm saying this is because I can't get because it is an 18 and I realy want btw your vids make me want it even more!!!!)

+Christian Smith 34k Steel, Wood and Copper and Ceramic is very VERy easy to acquire, I believe I got nearly 20k'ish just from scrapping everything in my other settlements. Adhesive, and Nuclear materials on the other hand require a good bit of grinding. I am not lying nor do I need to lie when I even stated in my previous video, that I have 2x Save files, 1 which is my normal game and the other which is a save is my settlement building only save where I used console commands to acquire 100k+ of every material, thus allowing me to build crazy designs and decide if I like it or not so I don't waste materials in my normal game save. If I was lying or trying to hide something I would edit out things I didn't want you to see lol. 2-3 hours of farming and scrapping other settlements yields very big gains in materials except for nuclear and adhesive.

@Maholix

+CursingWithCurtis And even in this case, adhesive can be made from plants. Veggie starch can be made at any cooking station from a mix of tatos, corn, and some other plant. This starch when scrapped, counts for a whopping 5 adhesive each. Since a cook pot already exists in sanctuary, you can throw down a pretty basic farm and literally grow your own adhesive in bulk. Looking for circuits for those pesky turrets? Telephones and hotplates are both fairly cheap from vendors. So really, the only truly rare mats if you know where to look are nuke mats, fiber optics, and ballistic fibers.

How do you have so much copper ? 32k wtf

I feel a little bit sorry for people that don't give a shit about that stuff.

THE worst idea ever, you only have to add 1 power connection to the house and the whole house will have powered. You really should give good advise.

@jhonrock2386

Ай бұрын

Nope, thats not true. As it is with the houses you build yourself, the ones that already exists in the game are made with "square blocks" which are connected one to another. When you place a conduit on a house, it will power only the "block" where the conduit is placed plus all the "blocks" that are directly connected to it. So, the blocks after it will not have power. Because of that you have to do more or less like the author of this video did. As you cant see the blocks the house is made, you have to guess its positions and place the conduits accordingly so all the house gets effectively powered.
