Made a new map, its called sanctuary! check it out. It will put ur red rocket right out side of louisville and offer an area fit for settlement building.

Beautiful.
Thunderator Feb 21, 2022 @ 5:22pm 
ohh, I see

Red rocket (and custom buildings) are made separate from the map, they are made then saved as a file to be uploaded to tilezed and worlded. With that being said, if you had the file for red rocket the building, you could probably get the map files from a mod, upload it into worlded and tilezed, place the building file in, save it and put it in the game. I could try it out and see if it works cause I’ve never done it.

to be more specific, what if you wanted to put your Red Rocket in a place that there's a city map mod, can you just "cut out" just the build and put wherever you want or it has to overwrite the entire cell?
Thunderator Feb 20, 2022 @ 9:34pm 
Can one make a simple change and not mess up an entire cell? like if I just want to change 1 specific thing and want compatibility with other map mods that change that city/location, is that possible or I have to make a 300x300?
6IX  [author] Feb 20, 2022 @ 6:00pm 
its basically you download the files from the forum they give you, it will be like a tile pack and then another link for worled and tiled or tilezed, you draw/paint the map corresponding to your cell size, so my maps one cell, which is 300x300 pixels, also you draw the zombie spawn and vegetation spawn, after that you convert some data, put it in a certain folder structure, and into the pz mod folder, I could always help if you wannna get more in depth with it, this is just the general basic steps of it. its not complicated at all just really specific.

at first it was very hard, it seemed every time I had to troubleshoot an issue, I would fix it only to have another issues lurking around the corner, now that I did this map I understand a lot more of why my mistakes were happenin. Also the tutorials and how tos werent all that great, they were either a word splurg or the videos had people clicking through tons of files, the forums helped with most issues but i had to go through them for a pretty long while to find my issues. So at the start yes it was hard but now its kinda easy. also tutorials are dry, theres very few videos out there. And I think sanctuary would be cool especially cause NPCs are coming and I remember having sanctuary be home base settlement but who knows maybe ill expand and that would be an interesting location.
Thunderator Feb 20, 2022 @ 1:40pm 
Also, how do one make a pz map? Is it hard?
Thunderator Feb 20, 2022 @ 1:36pm 
wooow, that will be hard. You could try to make Covenant because it's a gated community and a lot smaller than sanctuary, or maybe bunker hill, but it's bigger. You could try something easier and do one of the Starlight Drive-In Cinemas, because the game already have a Drive-in south of Rosewood, my god so many possibilities
6IX  [author] Feb 20, 2022 @ 11:24am 
might full send and try to make sanctuary
Kazeel_Amataka Feb 17, 2022 @ 5:11pm 
I can fill up a car at the pump just fine, but I can't fill a gas can. Not sure if I can't find the interaction spot or if there isn't one.
6IX  [author] Feb 17, 2022 @ 9:47am 
Also gonna look into item spawn within RR cause thats another issue.
6IX  [author] Feb 17, 2022 @ 9:46am 
would it work if you took the half walls off the roof with a sledge? I dont have the ladders mod so I dont know too much about it. I LOVED DOG MEAT LOL, they need dogs in this game for like extra carry weight but yes I put that dog house with dogmeat in my mind I was hoping some would notice lol. Yes the road is unfortunately 1 tile bigger, ill add it to the list of additions for the next update to fix, thank you thunder :steamthumbsup:
Thunderator Feb 17, 2022 @ 6:34am 
Oh, and I noticed something that I think may be because of your mod.

The road up to the already existing one is currently larger than it should, one of the lanes is 1 tile more to the side for the hole chunk the red rocket is in, not a game breaking thing, just so you know about =)

Again, loving it, will be keeping up with your creations
Thunderator Feb 17, 2022 @ 6:30am 
I like how you put a dog house on the back as a "easter egg"/reference to our hated-beloved doggo friendo Dogmeat
Thunderator Feb 17, 2022 @ 6:30am 
@MI$T6 thanks for the explaining things and future updates my dude, currently reforming my red rocket and loving it. About the second floor, only "bad thing" is that the second floor has a full wall, so I can't use my ladder mod to go up there withouth building a stair and breaking a wall/add another ladder, but all fine.
6IX  [author] Feb 16, 2022 @ 8:46pm 
as far as that toaster goes I was able to pick it up and move it to the kitchen in game. Placing it got a little specific cause it seems to wanna be in the middle of a tile and thats hard with counters and sinks being half a tile, almost looks like its falling off in some cases.
6IX  [author] Feb 16, 2022 @ 8:43pm 
I didnt realize so many people loved Red Rocket as much as I do.
You guys gave me some great suggestions, heres what im thinking for next update if you guys agree/wanna add more.

Possibly add a more red rockets to the map.
Add a parking lot to expand the area of Red Rocket for more room.
Add terminal computer in office area.
Add hot dog machine cause why not.
Try to fix thumbnail image.
6IX  [author] Feb 16, 2022 @ 8:30pm 
Thunder, walked on the roof and built a bit including some walls an escape rope, dirt/seed planting, all seems well, did not fall through.
IBMental Feb 16, 2022 @ 6:20pm 
@Kazeel_Amataka
Yeah, I run into the same problem with a couple other mods. Nothing seems to be wrong with the mods themselves, just the mod images. Still weird, anyway.
Kazeel_Amataka Feb 16, 2022 @ 4:37pm 
One thing to point out, not sure if it's just me, but the image for the mod fails to load in the mod list, causes frame rate lag and throws up endless errors until I close the mod list.
Kazeel_Amataka Feb 16, 2022 @ 4:27pm 
What a cool little place to fortify and call home!
Thunderator Feb 15, 2022 @ 6:23am 
Oh, and maybe move the toaster to the kitchen area instead of the tables and put a hotdog machine somewhere? (it has no use and I don't remember seem it on FO, but it kinda feets a diner).

I know I'm asking A LOT, but if you could make the map appear on the world-map it would be awesome
Thunderator Feb 15, 2022 @ 6:16am 
Hey, been on my second run spawning in the map (my first character died in the first day to the zeds due to exhaustion, hunger, thirst and cigarette-need). I'm really liking the map, the barrel at the back for Fuel API will be really good, too bad most of my windows and doors ar broken because of erosion xD. I have a question about the roof: Will I fall if I go upthere or is it safe to walk/build? And a suggestion would be the Terminal (computer in PZ) that on the first Red Rocket on Fallout 4, in the little room. Again, Really liking your first map, keep the good work =)

Wish we had Power Armor to use and store in the garage section heh.

Managed to fit the 70 mustang in there.
lalelunatic Feb 13, 2022 @ 8:21pm 
we need more of these in the outskirts of louisville with small parking lots and space to put containers in, gives a perfect backyard storage =P

although i wished it would be more northwest in the bending of the road near the bridge, and the pond would be "fed" by the river, that would look cool =)
6IX  [author] Feb 13, 2022 @ 10:53am 
thanks fellas I really appreciate it :steamthumbsup:
IBMental Feb 12, 2022 @ 10:37pm 
[IBMental Loved That]

Beautiful :D Very nice indeed.
Elex Blue Feb 12, 2022 @ 12:55am 
Good work MI$T6
Its seriously a great mod.
We thank you
6IX  [author] Feb 11, 2022 @ 10:09pm 
updated it just now, construction items can now be moved, also added water and foraging zones. Thank you very much, and yeah when I was looking at some photos the windows were hard to replicate. I wasnt planning on doing custom work for the windows/rocket on top of the building, though that would be so cool. once again thank you very much.:steamthumbsup:
Elex Blue Feb 11, 2022 @ 8:35pm 
You should be proud you did well.
I wish PZ had shutter windows like FO4 does.

So yes you did well.
6IX  [author] Feb 11, 2022 @ 8:33pm 
youre right about the construction objects, messed something up tthere, gonna fix it asap.
6IX  [author] Feb 11, 2022 @ 8:26pm 
its def gonna have issues its my first map, any feed back is great so thank you for commenting, ill look into this.
Elex Blue Feb 11, 2022 @ 8:03pm 
Just to be clear I did not put a metal sheet on the door I was trying to use.. just the other doors and windows
Elex Blue Feb 11, 2022 @ 8:02pm 
The door near the garage door. It was opening but then said blocked. I did put a metal sheet on the left door in the front of the store..maybe there was a collision issue. Similar to how the biockades wouldn't disassemble even with the proper tools and skills.
Might be something on my end not sure.

I just wasn't sure if there was a key or not.

Still great work. Loved the red rocket from FO4
6IX  [author] Feb 11, 2022 @ 7:54pm 
I checked through, I was able to open and close doors fine, the garage door I had to right click on to unlock, which door?
Elex Blue Feb 11, 2022 @ 7:34pm 
Oddly the doors won't open...says blocked.
