I'm so happy! I've been hoarding certain junk items just to use as camp deco. I totally suck at merging but this technique seems easy enough for me to figure out, lol. I'm going to be doing a new camp build tonight on my live stream,so I'll be sure to try this out when it's time to decorate. Thank you!
if you want to be even slicker, merge a few chessboards together overlapping eatch other for putting stuff closer together. this is gonna be fun as heck!
Thank you very much for this video! I have seen some other merging videos before but they always seemed so complicated to do that I didn't want to try them ( and get thoroughly frustrated with them when they wouldn't place correctly. ) but this is a very easy and simple way to do this. 🎉❤
That's awesome! Don't forget to merge the functional cooking stove into your kitchen countertop sections (I did the one with a round window in it so it looks like a functional oven). You can then snap the rest of your kitchen counters around it and make a fully functional kitchen. My next attempt will be an enclave icebox merge with a fridge...
It was really neat seeing you in game. Never thought I’d cross paths with a UA-camr I watch in the same server let alone join my casual lol. Thanks for posing with me.
Ive been doing this since I Unlocked it, BUT here is Helpful Hint, a Maniquin will hold plate down you dont have to stand on it OR even easier, Place the plate down then Pick it up and move it and the plate will lower, IF anyone steps on it it will unset and you will have to store it and repeat moving it. Ive noticed just dropping the boards in with 2 drops on Pressure plate they the boards want to drop to low and part of the item displayed will sink in as well, as you saw with your pool balls ... I used my Camp Module and Placing the Item tyhe boards on Causes it to FLOAT (Basically Opposite of the Pressure Plate) so the chess boards raised TWICE, then used Pressure plate to sink and they were Much flushed then.
Fantastic, thank you! 🙏 It’s a shame we don’t have a proper way to do this in the game already, but this works perfectly The only downside being that it double the amount of workshop space needed
So there’s actually a neat little trick with the pressure plate. If you place it down, pick it up and slightly move it and place it back down the plate will stay in the downward position. Then you don’t have to worry about standing on it and you can stand directly in front of the item to figure out if the merging is going how you want it. The only reason the plate would go back up into the opposition is because somebody walked over it. I hope this helps❤
Pressure plate is also great for putting stuff in rivers, lakes, and water in general. I put nuka cola fish on them so it looks like they are under the water.
You don't need to stand on the Pressure Plate! Several methods can include having a mannequin on the plate (not necessary for the most part). Just placing it down the first time, grabbing and placing it down will auto press it, as long as no one walks over it. and you can have the item you're grabbing on the plate itself.
is there something you can use to display power armor pieces? aside from probably helmets. iv always wanted to have them all over my workshop to show my love of powerarmor and working on it.
Tip for the pressure plate use a manikin on the pressure plate place it on the pressure plate take it off and put it back on and it registers that someone is standing on it so you don’t have to stand on it and mess around with it
Great vid, thank you! I have a question though. If camp budget bug with wall and connectors and wires is still in the game? And if not is there something similar? I’ve dropped game around broken steel update and now developed great itch I need to scratch and wanted to maybe restyle my house a bit
you don't need to jump onto the pressure plate to do the trick, wich is not convenient. you just need to place it on the floor the first time, then pick it up and place it again, then you'll see the pressure plate will go down, at this moment the merge thing will work. note that, if somebody walk on the pressure plate, this one will trigger and get back to up position. if this occur : store the pressure plate and replace it the same way.
This is an older video, but one of my complaints about the CAMP is that the region is round when everything is square. Can lead to a lot of wasted space especially if you want to put a fence or wall all the way around.
How do we get the chessboard display? The ones we find around Appalachia seem to be junk and the only reference i see to the CAMP item is a seasonal reward from some years ago.
Just sucks that one pressure plate drop is not enough to hide the chessboard, and 2 drops is a bit much. Might not be real noticeable for most junk items, but is a problem when I tried to put a newspaper on my coffee table. 1 drop: still see chessboard. 2 drops: newspaper isn't visible. I guess I'll have to use a dirt hill (if that even still works) and hope I can get it just right.
If you have a small bit of uneven ground in your camp you can use that instead of a pressure plate for finer tuning. I've found a few spots in my camps that let me get about 1.5 pressure plates of drop, which is perfect for everything so far. Takes a bit of practice to get right though. You just need a spot where the bottom corner of whatever you are trying to merge the chessboard into clips into the ground while you move it, but it pops to the surface when you actually place it.
@@zvideoedits Yeah, not a bad idea. Though, I hate using extra budget if I can find a way to do it the hard way. Thanks for the tip though, I'll pass that along to my friend who prefers the easy way. 😂
@@TheMalmut Gotcha. I'm relatively new to working with merges, so I've never heard the term drill hill. Everyone I talk to just sticks with pressure plates since they are reliable I guess. Can confirm that it still works though. Edit: Why did my addled mind read "dirt hill" as "drill hill" each time. Makes sense in context tho.
This is a cool video and I appreciate it but I'm so done with merging lol its too damn time consuming for my liking. I'm still able to make cool camps placing non junk items on things tho. Placing junk on the dresser display case works for me.
Great video, but, how do you get the junk that is in your bag out and be able to place it on the chessboard? when you place the board down, how do you select the junk in your bag, and place it on board, the only thing i can do is drop, and it drops in bag, how do you put the junk on the board? No one shows the step of placing it on the board, exactly how you get from bag to board.
Rip to my camp stash for all the junk I’m about to horde to display. There are some stuff like the eyebot helmet you cannot display on this which is soooo sad id love to put one of those near my workbench to make it look like I’m fixing it
That plan for sale in crater or foundation? Got the robot didnt have enough points for that. Season ended when I was trying to get the points. Enter the season bit late.
You can merge two chessboard together and combine junk items or fit them ymtogether more snugly before mergingvthem into a table too it'll youbwant super cluttered tables
the problem?... that displays counts or adds up to the 30 limit... I normally use the helvetia display as it holds 6 items and counts as 1 as far as I know
There's an easier way to use the pressure plate. Place it then pick it up, then place it down again. The plate should be in the pressed position and all you need to do is put what you want merged on top without having to stand on it or using the mannequin.
Please does anyone know how to get the pack, bundle, plans, etc.. That clean looking kitchen set up is. The one he snapped back into place near the end?
Oh hey, I remember asking for something like this in the Discord Official Suggestions channel. I wonder if one of the devs saw that, or is was just serendipity...
Fasnacht masks look so good on tables, but mine disappeared after a little while. Tried it again and they disappeared again :/ (used the same one you did). Same thing happened to me with a captured frog

How much budget space do the chessboards take? i hvaent gotten it myself but will soon so cant check
