Fallout 4 Mod Sanctuary
Fallout 4 is the game that keeps on giving and if you add mods to the mix, you'll easily have fun running through the Commonwealth for dozens of playthroughs. There are some of the best Fallout 4. Feb 4, 2018 - Sanctuary Estates - Complete Sanctuary Hills overhaul XB1. 61 Mods Created. Add to Library. Report This Mod. Dec 16, 2018 - Somebody built an AT-AT Walker in Fallout 4, and that's quite a long way. Known as Sanctuary City, grod4L used a plethora of mods to create.
Since launched back in 2015, the community has been very busy indeed, and not just with surviving the apocalypse. No, the community has been busy creating some of the most impressive and best Fallout 4 settlements we've ever seen. Whole communities of builders have been taking to the various social media platforms to show off what they've made. Designs are growing ever more inspired and elaborate, and thanks to user-created mods, and Bethesda’s own extensive DLC releases, apocalypse architects have more options at their disposal than ever.We’ve picked out some of the very best Fallout 4 settlements around for you to admire.
Perhaps you’ll even want to recreate them in your own Commonwealth - though you’ll need to set aside more than a few evenings, we reckonLooking for help with Fallout 4?

The for Xbox One, PS4, and PC.Castle WallsLet's start simple, as lots of people have spent lots of time simply trying to turn back the nuclear clocks by recreating what once stood. The most obvious (and popular) candidate is the Castle, once known as Fort Independence.
As here demonstrates, using the concrete foundation blocks (found, improbably, in the wood section of the settlements menu) is the way forward, and fills the gaps rather nicely. In fact, concrete foundations are probably the most important settlement element going as they're one of the few objects that are allowed to clip into the ground, meaning you can use them to even out gaps caused by undulating terrain. The Castle ComplexAnd here's what happens when you fill in the rest of the Castle. Has made a fortress of the fort, reinstating the artillery, setting up enough turrets to cut through a Raider army and making the whole place self-sufficient.
Best of all, see that little balcony inside the tower built around the radio mast? That houses a fully-stocked bar (that no Settler will use because the boring denizens of the Wasteland never take time off). Speaking of radio masts, they usually signal how high you can build, meaning settlements with extra-large antennas can be built taller than others - it's worth looking out for before you start spending scrap on some doomed skyscraper. Outpost Zimonja is a good place to start for those with lofty ambitions. Spectacle Island PierSpectacle Island comes with the game's largest building area and, apparently, its highest built limit, meaning it's one of the most versatile locations going. Has gone outwards instead of upwards, building a seaside shanty town complete with a nostalgic, no doubt toxic, high-rad pier. Spectacle Island is one of the tougher settlements to unlock (and don't read on if you consider the explanation a spoiler).
You have to travel to a sunken ship, flip a switch, then either fight an onslaught of Mirelurks (including a Queen and, possibly, a Legendary Deep King) or run to the nearby radio tower and activate a pulse that scares them off. Worth it, though. Jamaica Plain MarketSometimes, you just want a bit of Old World charm, which is why turned Jamaica Plain into a lovely little urban town centre, hustling and bustling like you'd hope for.
It's a properly planned town, rather than a loose collection of shacks huddled around a big phallic symbol made of light panels like everyone else makes. For me, the triumph here are those strings of light bulbs, lending the whole place a Christmassy feel. The creator agrees - apparently getting the notoriously fickle placement right took about three hours per four wires worth of bulbs. I won't be doing that, then. Red Rocket Bar and GrillSome of my favourite builds are where players have just committed to an idea, rather than trying to make as much as possible. Where I saw a floating impossi-town, saw a homely restaurant, and made a genuinely inviting place of the early game gas station. It's the attention to detail I love here - al fresco and interior dining areas, the Mutfruit plants used to give it a garden feel, the statue on the stairs.
I would eat here, if I didn't know it was definitely selling Bloatfly tartare and staffed by people whose arm might fall off into my sandwich. Power Armour HangerAnother in the series I like to call, People Who Had My Idea But Way Better, also saw the Red Rocket roof as the perfect place to store power armour. Except I built a sort of pokey bunker, and they made an enormous, multi-level showroom with space for 58 separate suits. It's sort of disgusting how well thought-out this is, from the circular metal pieces giving each station an escape pod vibe, to the toolboxes next to each one letting you store broken parts.
Be right back, I'm just burning my settlement down. Comic Book Storewent to the trouble of finding every single stat-boosting comic book in the game, and it's only right that they honour the rags of yesteryear with an appropriate resting place.
In classic nerd fashion, the shop has every magazine stored by title, which I appreciate. It's also got a pop culture memorabilia section, with bobblehead storage, plus the Silver Shroud and Grognak costumes on display, making this the new prime destination for thieves and people with ponytails. Taffington BoathouseThe delightfully-named Taffington Boathouse by is just so idyllic, a slice of coastal charm in the wasteland. Half farm, half riverside boardwalk, it features a yacht and a huge, paddle steamer-inspired houseboat.
Threat of raider attacks aside, Taffington's adorable wooden cabins look like something you'd rent out for a peaceful summer holiday Flag WavingIt takes an unfathomably large amount of power to use the lightpads, not to mention some very specific resources, and even then you have to connect to terminals to get it to work as you want it to. What I'm saying is that making something like 's tribute to the land of the free takes an enormous amount of incredibly tedious work. So, you know, kudos. Nice treehouse in the background there, too.
In the Dog(meat) HouseHow selfish that we all think of how best to make settlements for our own gain? I know my Sole Survivor is committed to creating a better world for all of the Commonwealth's nicest people, so why haven't I followed 's lead?
I stuck Dogmeat out in the Sanctuary rain, while they went all in and made the little guy a home for his house (which looks better appointed than my actual bedroom, by the way). This is by far my favourite of the lot. Hidden Vault 2’s underground lair deters unwanted visitors with fake radioactive waste, deadly automated defences, and hidden doors. Inside, however, the spacious settlement within is a dream, fully kitted out and ready to cater to every need of its inhabitants. The attention to detail is incredible - with its armory, workshop, pantry, mess hall, bathrooms, living quarters, and even showers, it’s completely believable as the home of an entire wasteland army. Even if there are a few conspicuous Marvel movie references thrown in around the place Howl's (Un)Moving CastleThe hermit crab-esque movement of Howl's Moving Castle might not have quite made the move to Fallout 4, but there's no doubt that Imgur user has captured its essence.
Built from a variety of different pieces of Fallout gubbins, it still manages to have all the strange turrets, lighthouse and ship parts jutting out from its hull. Mire Port’s colourful city, built at the Spectacle Island settlement site, is absolutely huge, featuring a business district, main square, shops and bars, apartments, a power plant, and more, all bathed in pleasing neon glows. The scale is incredible - and the creator admits they only stopped expanding because their PS4 could no longer keep up. Framerate dips seem a small price to pay to get to explore this metropolis. Sanctuary CityIn an attempt to beat all other settlers, NexusMods user has casually built an entire city as his Fallout 4 settlement.
Known as Sanctuary City, grod4L used a plethora of mods to create the stunning settlement, and put them all together using the in-game editor. Take a little tour around Sanctuary City on and get ready to catch your dropped jaw. Scrap the magic DragonTowering above Downtown Boston, this Scrap Dragon is a seriously awesome work of scrap. Player created the metallic beast using rusty cars and motorbikes (check out his claws), scaffolding, pylons and other post-apocalyptic metal sources.
Just don't try and sleep in this settlement, it doesn't like it. Columbia from BioShock InfiniteWhen you can create, why not create an homage to one game inside of another? Well, that's exactly what Fallout gamer has done in Fallout 4, with the settlement based on BioShock Infinite's floating city of Columbia. And it's utterly perfect, from the statues to the lurid colour scheme. Plus, it's actually built above Boston's lighthouse, just kind of floating there.
Ummm there's an AT-AT behind youNot only is this a life-size AT-AT, it's also a hotel. Snuggle up to the walls of this Star Wars Imperial walking tank, made entirely by, which is actually filled with more home comforts than you'd expect. George Lucas would think it needs more lasers though.
Version 1.3 adds new, more wasteland-appropriate textures to repaired houses. It also fixes an issue where houses might not register as repairable.Sanctuary's settlers don't seem to be making much progress on fixing those houses.
If you want a job done right, do it yourself!This mod allows you to repair Sanctuary's houses using the workshop interface, restoring their roof and outer walls and cleaning the interior. You can also fix the bridge. These repairs can be performed on an existing settlement without trouble - collisions and navmeshes take the new structures into account.I highly recommend using debris-removal mods like, since skeletons and trash piles tend to bring down real estate values.Technical Details and Known IssuesPlease be aware that this mod's startup script deletes the original houses and spawns replacements. Uninstalling it will permanently remove them. This is an unfortunate necessity in order to prevent the infamous Cell Reset Bug.
Fallout 4 Mod Sanctuary Hot Springs
Until Bethesda patches this issue, this is the only way mods like this can work.Since pre-War interiors don't exist for the neighbors' houses, the models had to be cobbled together from multiple existing nifs. Inner walls will still have some holes, but at least they're clean now!
Fallout 4 Mod Sanctuary Room
Other consequences include a few un-removable loose or bent panels on exterior walls. One house in particular has an odd inconsistency in number of doors between pre- and post-War models.Even after the houses are fixed, some settlers might keep hammering. They're kind of stupid that way.You Might Also Enjoy.
