About this mod
A modular bridge you can build in game anywhere using Clipboard Resurrection and Place Everywhere (they don't snap) (no navmesh).
- Requirements
- Permissions and credits
Introduction:
Not sure where I got this idea, but it's always been floating around. So thought I'd throw something together. Used Place Everywhere to highlight pieces of the double decker highway near Starlight by tapping the 'Insert' key to enable more objects to be highlighted. Then used Clipboard Resurrection to copy them into a pattern.ini. Then went to Greygarden and picked up the down facing end piece. Then pasted them between Spectacle and Warwick and positioned them with Place Everywhere as proof of concept. Total time was 30-45 minutes.
Recommended Mods:(highly recommended)
Workshop Plus (allows flying while in workshop mode among other options and makes moving around in a build much easier and really can add to your creativity) (just don't forget to shut off the workshop 5 second timer (F5) (from Place Everywhere))
Build High - Expanded Settlements 5.0 (doesn't work with Workshop Anywhere but offers 200+ floors and expanded boundaries in vanilla settlements) (great for any arial builds like skyscrapers/aircraft/spacecraft etc...)
The Pieces:
The bridge I built uses two different pieces, a curved piece (2) and a down facing piece (3). There are four curved pieces that make up the bulk of the bridge with a down facing piece on each end. I've also added a few more straight pieces to create more flexibility.
The folders contain:
1. The whole bridge from Spectacle Island to Warwick.
2. Curved piece with supports.
3. Down facing piece.
4. Short straight piece with supports.
5. Short straight piece.
6. Long straight piece with supports.
Special Note: Remember, these are very large pieces, so you'll need Place Everywhere for precise placement. After placing an object, lock it in by pressing 'F7', then move with the keypad. These can be placed and positioned with Clipboard Resurrection, but it's much more cumbersome. Also remember that these pieces are just a starting point and there are more in the game that can be used. And if these are too large for your game you can always resize them with Place Everywhere. One last thing is NPC's won't use these (no navmesh), but they could make whatever you build more interesting.
Using the Clipboard Resurrection pattern files:
After extracting the files from your download, copy/paste the Clipboard patterns (pattern.ini) to folders located at C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Fallout 4\Data\F4SE\Plugins\Clipboard.
I've numbered them for ease of use, but you can put them anywhere.
Then while in game:
* Build the clipboard tool:
* If you just want the bridge as I've placed it, choose "Move To Pattern Source Location" in the action menu first.
If you want it somewhere else just skip this step. Remember you can still move/rotate it after placement.
* Then choose "Paste From Clipboard".
Also remember that this bridge is long, and you'll probably not see the other end till you walk out to it. Most people's LOD (level of detail) just doesn't go that far. I took these pictures by walking out halfway till both ends were in view. Then used the console command 'TFC' (toggle fixed camera) to zoom out.
Special Note: If you enjoy building in Fallout 4 and are on Facebook, the best building groups I've found are the Fallout 4 Settlement Building and Fallout 4: Commonwealth Creators groups. They include some of the best builders in the Fallout community. They also include builders of all skill levels and can answer any questions you might have about mods, materials, or techniques used for building in Fallout 4.
