Onyx Nightshade's Settlements - Spectacle Island build WIP
[size=3][u][b][color=#ffff00]Spectacle Island:[/color][/b][/u]
This is by far the largest build I've ever attempted. I decided to challenge myself and build *gasp* REAL HOUSES in Fallout 4! I caught myself wondering why I never built an actual house in FO4. Then I tried it. It's not as easy as you might think. I spent almost 6 hours just figuring out how to make a basement. Then getting the layout of an actual house to work with the workshop pieces provided in game took about the same amount of time. That's just ONE house! Things started going faster once I had an idea of how to make things work, but I didn't stop with just one house! This build has several houses (one even has an indoor pool), a greenhouse, a warehouse on the docks, a warehouse/marketplace with a boathouse in the lower level, a lighthouse, a concession stand, a community recreational center, and even an underground cavern/military style bunker.
Everything in this video was built using nothing but the vanilla game and DLC workshop items.
NOTE: Spectacle Island is still a work in progress, with large areas still not filled in with what I have in mind. Unfortunately I think I am getting close to what the game and my computer can manage. As it is, when one of my settlements is under attack, I have to swim to Warwick Homestead or some other settlement, save, and then try to fast travel or I instantly CTD. As long as I save in a settlement away from Spectacle Island I can usually then fast travel to the settlement under attack. Worst case if I get the CTD while in a settlement other than Spectacle Island I can then reload my save and fast travel with no problem. I've spent about 4 weeks on this so far, and I am no where near finished yet (unless my computer or the game engine finally gives up on me). As you can see in the video, I'm starting to get some weird graphic anomalies, like rainbow textures, x-ray vision, and texture tearing. If anyone knows a sure-fire way to get rid of the rainbow textures, let me know.
