- In this No Mod No Glitch Step-by-step build tutorial, I will show you how to build the Starlight Apartments located at the Starlight Drive-in!
For this build, I used items from the Far Harbor, Wasteland Workshop and Contraptions Workshop DLCs.
This tutorial was made on the PC using the Fallout 4 Next Gen Update (Ver. 1.10.984.0).
For building, I use an Xbox controller.
I also have a No Mod No Glitch step-by-step renovation of Coastal Cottage
• Fallout 4 - Coastal Co...
and a No Mod No Glitch repair of the Castle walls
• Fallout 4 - The Castle...

bro I've always wanted to build apartments up against the drive in screen and I never thought to do it on the backside of it. This is so good!
I have tried many, many times to do something with the front side of the screen but was never able to do anything with it. The backside worked because it is fairly flat and doesn't cause collision issues. The existing structure below the apartments could be used for additional living space too. Thank you - glad you like it!
@@cryingcube2 I wanted a guard house there, with guards on top, and bunks in the room, but the guards all stand on the restrooms on the front of the pavement. I have a stupid set of npcs.
The NPCs are known to have pathing issues in this game and they might not be able to walk in the storage room by the street? However, I like your design idea for that area!
@@cryingcube2 Thank you. Yep, the apartments were next to the drivein, and faced the screen where I shot off fireworks.ha Pathing is an issue for sure.
yea - I was hoping the at the next gen update would fix some of the pathing issues!
I've been with this game since day one. Ive got thousands of hours in; and never really tooled around with the scaffolding. Thought i was finally done with this game and now i gotta boot it back up. I blame you. Great job.
LOL - Thank you! I take full responsibility ☺️
One of the best Starlight Drive-In builds I have seen very nice
Thank you! Glad you like it!
Nice build idea. Well done. I've built on the front of the screen on the past, never thought to build apartments on the back side. On the front, in a recent playthrough, I used scaffolding but instead of building up I used rows of train car pieces to make the apartments, all with those train car sliding doors, and walkways in between. Ended up looking like a cool junky "city" of multi-leveled train cars. Hard to build up on that side because of the curve and the wrecked bits sticking out.
In another playthrough from years back I actually built myself a player mansion right on top of the screen. Fun build, but in the end it would have probably gotten blown off in a high wind. lol
For the existing rooms on the back side I've often just stuck the generator into the long storage room. Now I think it would serve nicely to power the apartments as well.
Thank you and thanks for sharing your ideas - I love your ideas for the screen side! The train car idea is particularly relevant to Starlight because of the rail tracks that run nearby. I never thought about a player home on the top of the screen but that is a good idea - I don't know if the NPCs can path to the top of the screen so you would have the place all to yourself. I got frustrated with the screen side because of the curve and all of the bent metal that caused collision issues so that is why I tried the other side. With this character, I made the existing center room into a manager office/apartment and the side room into a bathroom, but I like the idea of using it for a mechanical room too.

@choochooelectric7381 Ahh thank you! I really appreciate your support!
@laurelkromer5756 Thank you so much - I really appreciate your support!

@purple_sim Thank you!
Well thought out and explained. Excellent use of the supplied parts and no mods or glitches. It has been years since I have played unmodded and though I am not sorry to have switched to mods I am nostalgic for building with just the basics. Great job. I look forward to watching more of your videos :)
Thank you! Until very recently, I only played the game modded. Over the years, I've been amazed at some of the settlements that I've seen that have been done without mods. So - I thought I'd give it a try. It's definitely challenging but I'm really enjoying it!
An extremely charming place, my settlement in Starlight is like the monsters of H.P. lovecraft, abstract and beyond human comprehension.
Thanks! I love that this game allows everyone the freedom to design their settlements however they want.
Very nice! I built this in my own Starlight Drive In settlement and i love it :)
Oh wow! Thank you - glad you like it!
@@cryingcube2 I really do, very creative use of what is otherwise wasted space. Well done.
Thanks again! I appreciate your comments!
Ahh CZcams once again reminding me I lack creativity 😅Nice build and great tutorial video.
Ahh - I'm sure you're not giving yourself enough credit! Thank you - glad you like it!
You've peaked my interest. Subbed. Id really like a few fully finished and decorated tours. Never built on the back. Didn't think there was enough room. Id be interested in your full use of the settlement. And commentary behind your reasoning. Keep it up.
Just checked out your full channel. Looks like you beat me too it. Great job on coastal cottage.
Thank you and welcome! I've had a few requests for decorated tours of Starlight. I'm currently finishing it with my no mods character and plan to do a decorated tour soon. Thanks for the suggestions on the tour too - it is helpful to gauge what viewers want to see.
Thank you! If you didn't see both - there is a build tutorial and tour for Costal Cottage.
Nicely done.
Bonus points for music that is not annoying too!.
Thank you! I also appreciate your feedback on the music - although the You Tube audio library has a lot of choices - it's difficult to find something for this type of video.
@@cryingcube2 the music was nice and not at all districting from the video. Definitely a direction to stay with.
Thanks again - I really appreciate your feedback - it's the only way I know what is working and where I can improve.
Thank you for this vid. Very well done and it educated me on the basics I was missing. This video is going to help me finally enjoy all of FO4....
Fantastic! Glad to hear that this helps you! Thank you!
Very nice and cosy build, good use of the space. Really fits the aesthetics of Fallout 4.
Thank you! Glad you like it!
Magic once again. Well done.
Thank you! I appreciate your comment!
(Sorry no deathclaw available for this video 😊)
Thanks! The tips on getting the stairs/rails etc. to snap in are gold. I might to this, but using Warehouse instead of Barn because I like all the window options. Great work!
Thank you! The build order to get everything to snap together is frustrating in this game - glad that tip helped. I agree with you on the window options with the warehouse set - as an alternative you could also use the 1/2 barn or warehouse wall on the bottom with the 1/2 greenhouse glass wall on the top.
Have just build a giant glass mega-structure on the other-side but was forced to build a wee alley way against the front. Was worried building so close to boundary but looks fantastic and has definitely inspired me to use more barn tiles in my builds.
Oh wow! Thank you, glad this worked for your settlement. To be honest, I don't like the red color of the barn tiles (a more neutral brown color would work better IMO) but they work well for some builds. This whole structure could be built with the warehouse instead of the barn tiles but it looks better with the barn tiles.
Nice video. I am v excited to see more from you !
Thank you! I appreciate your support. Definitely more to come!
An original use of an area that is awesome often overlooked, a building style that seems to mostly fit in with the setting... Very well done. The only suggestion that I would make, in order to better blend in with the Commonwealth, would be to try alternating different walls & fences
Thank you! Great suggestion too - it would be easy enough to swap out some of the solid barn walls with wall with holes or even add some warehouse walls. There is a variety of railings that could be used instead using the same railing. That would give it a scrappier Commonwealth look.
Sometimes I like to encase it in Scaffolding and make the inwards facing part a hotel and the outwards part the Armory/other general defenses
That is a good idea - it provides both housing and protection! Very cleaver - thanks!
Very good build please post more builds
Thank you and thanks for your encouragement!
Great build and easy to follow. Would you consider making a decoration tutorial? I love building but never know how to liven up my builds.
Thank you and thanks for your suggestion. I've thought about a decorating tutorial but wasn't sure if that would interest anyone. I will add it to my list!
Cute I dunno why I’ve never built on the back, the ground is nice and flat
Thanks! It was only out of frustration from not being able to build anything that I liked on the other side that made me look at the back. I also like that the street is along this side - it kinda makes it look like settlers might have actually used this as a stable structure to build against.
looks great dude
Thank you! Glad you like it!
Great idea & great build 😊 Thank you 😊
Thank you and your welcome! Glad you like it!
Awesome!!
Thank you!
The verticality in this one is really great. Do you have plans for the other side of the building too?
Thank you! I've tried numerous times to build something similar to what I built on the back, but the front side of the screen is curved and uneven which causes collision issues in a vanilla build. However - I have been studying the front side to see if there is something else that I can do with it. Not sure at this point what to do - but I would like to do something with that huge eyesore.
This is an excellent build. I tried to build apartments using both wood pieces on one set, and railway cars for another. In sanctuary, the npcs walk in the apts no problem. In Starlight, for some odd reason, the npcs refuse to walk through doors to get to their assigned beds/rooms. They get stuck on the side of the door or stand in the rain like drenched monkeys. I've had to remove walls for them to go inside, then put them back with the door. Odd. I made walking roofs so they can climb up and see fireworks. instead, they sit by the drive in.
Thank you! The use of railway cars is very interesting for an apartment build. Pathing has always been a problem in this game. I was really hoping that the next gen update would fix some of the pathing issues so that the settlers' movements would be more realistic.
@@cryingcube2 You're welcome. Thank you for the reply! I really enjoyed this vid. Yes the pathing is wonky. ha sometimes it works, sometimes not. I figured since the cars were there, to remove the cars and use railboxes. It worked when it worked After I removed a wall. ha
You're welcome! The railcars are definitely a great idea because the train tracks run right next to that settlement - so they make a lot of sense to use there.
Grrrrr....so angry that I have to reinstall to make this now. Also, not angry at all.
lol! Glad you like it!
Guuurl those are NOT apartments... those are jail cells... You got the Starlight Drive-In Sheriff's Office 😂😂
lol! I can see that - creative! 😂
Sensational
Thank you!
I did this build except I wrapped it along both sides of the theatre screen, this is literally the only thing I’ve built at this settlement and my settlement size meter is full. Super annoying 😂
I like the idea of wrapping it around the screen! That sounds very practical! For the size of Starlight it does have a very small build limit. I think the Skooled Zone has a good video on how to increase the build limit-but use with caution-if you extend it too much it can crash the game.
It will not allow me to place a floor there or anywhere along that roof
I found that if you try to push the floor too far forward (off the narrow edge of the roof) or try to place it above the blue part of the screen near the back edge of the roof, it is red and you can't place it. Other than that, I'm not sure why a floor can't be placed.
THE SALT! Where is the pinch of salt?!
Needs more flavor? What did you have in mind?
I hate wood...
Rent : $5
LOL! Wonder what the exchange rate for dollars to bottle caps is??
Ben there done that. What is the point of no modes? No glitch, so you made a regular construction good for you. Zero originality.
Others disagree.
