So I shall pay forward the help you've given me, and give a little nugget to the other people here. For those playing on keyboard and mouse, you can actually get a strong horizontal boost from your boost pack, but the option is tucked away in the settings. If you go to your keybinds, you'll see that you have two columns for your actions. One of the columns says "Alt Key." If you go down to jump, you'll see that space bar is in the left column, where as the right one is blank, assign a different key here (or even make it space bar) and when you use that key you'll get a strong horizontal boost with your jumps which is even better if you sprint before you jump. Sadly, this doesn't work on controller, it seems that if the game detects and analog stick movement then trying to press the key on your keyboard while moving with your controller stuck, it just uses the standard boost pack movement. This means you can't use something like REWASD to bind the keyboard press to a button on your controller. Maybe someone could put together a steam controller layout for it?
I have a feeling that the "Book" was an accidental oversight from Bethesda and wasn't supposed to be in the final version of the game. It was probably them testing the book user interface, making sure every letter and number shows up correctly. The chapter 1 was likely the same but to test if the heading worked.
It probably is the "base" for the other books, but consider the "lore". This is a sci-fi setting. These are not expensive leather parchment or paper pages like in an Elder Scroll or Fallout for that matter. This is cheap, mass-produced hardware. Someone in universe could have been just testing it and never came around to actually use it.
Got another tip for ya; One day on Bessel 3-B takes 57 Earth days. This means if you place resource miners on the planet (it's possible to make an outpost with access to Aluminum, Iron, Cobalt, AND Nickel), then sleep for an hour, you'll get around 57 times the "normal" amount of each resource. Enjoy!
@@NaveSutlefhe definitely thinks that's what it is, but it's more fun if it's a mystery. Maybe it's part of a cypher and a is a hidden clue to a secret Easter egg? I can't think of how it would work as a code, but these days people are very clever about hiding secret messages when they want to be.
An Easter egg I found was on a random planet. On one of the small colonies, a colenest said, spoiler: I used to be an explorer like you, then I took... never mind, it's a long story.
@@xxxsimpai No problem, any time friend. I'd work on choosing your words more carefully next time so you don't give off the vibe of being clueless. See that's a vibe, something you feels true but may not be. This is an actual direct reference. 😉
Delvin Mallory is in the game, when you’re doing the crimson fleet quest line and are on suvurov you can see his name mentioned as being a prisoner on the computer in the guard tower
The nirnroot "code" is definitely a texture mismatch; looks like a decal sheet used on the surrounding environment. You can see the diamond tread pattern and the slatted vents that are right beside the plant on that sheet.
Don’t sell survey data at any vendor. At least if you want max credit sell them to Valdmir at the eye. He’s buy the data for higher price then any other vendor. You just have to talk to him and pick the last option and he talks about scanning planets then you’ll be able to turn your data to him for max credits
As a mug collector myself I can tell you, You can get DOZENS of NASA mugs from following the main story. It may be a rare misc. item at the beginning. But when you get to a certain point you’ll be trying to offload NASA stuff like it’s a stockpile of Aurora
Yeah, I was slightly disappointed when I saw other ones out and about after I first discovered the one under the bridge. I'm the guy that searches out every nook and cranny and takes 2 hours to clear a 20 min "dungeon', so I was hoping these mugs were a hidden-type collection thing.
@XxSpeedxxDemonxX have you gotten all the snow globes yet? They look pretty good, they're hard to find, and really good decoration so I would recommend.
@residentpotato3091 I have not been searching too much right now. Kinda been doing the NG+'s right now, just trying out different stuff while gathering power. This NG+ gameplay model has me putting off the hard-core collecting of all things until I settle on a final run. Due to the loss of all items and such. It is still hard to put my tendencies in check and hurry (normal play) thru quests even knowing why I'm playing thru differently than I normally would - and will eventually. I have seen the globes out and about, tho, and there is a universe where they will be mine. Lol
@@Safetytrousers Right, but it's certainly not a bad idea to use shielded cargo and jammers. It could be that you forget you have some contraband in storage and then jump to a system that scans your ship and you get caught with it. The best way to deal with it though is to go to a star system that doesn't scan ships or dock with a star station that has a Trade Authority vendor in it as soon as you get the contraband.
The best way where you don't get caught is easy. 1. Go to any non settlement planet where you won't be scanned. 2. Drop the contraband on the ship's ground. 3. Walk out of.the ship onto the planet. 4. Fast travel to a settlement. 5. Go back to the ship and pick the contraband up. 6. Sell it.
In the Lodge behind the Weapons Modification station there are three ammo boxes that also have infinite storage. I've been using them to store resources in a more convenient location. Just so I don't have to run to the room then back to the basement. Just head straight on down and get to the upgrading.
@Autissm420 exactly why I haven't put a single thing in there , if they come out and say it's intentional sure il use it but I'm not tying to log on one day to my hoarded stockpile of permanent markers and tissue boxes being gone 😂
That cutter one is great. E: Even better than the safe is the little innocuous storage box downstairs near all the workstations. From the research one, 180 and go through the doorway. To the left of the doorway on the right is a storage box on the table. Unlimited space. Near the work stations. Big win. E2: Bugged texture?
The first or second rank of ship piloting gives you access to a thruster mode. [RB on console] With this mode on you can spin your ship super fast while keeping the same momentum. Great in combat when someone is behind you. Boost away then enter thruster mode and spin 180 and take them out while still speeding away from them.
@wheresmymuffins Very true! I assume it is in the help menus but who ever reads those. One would think that there would be a tutorial pop-up like there is at other points in the game.
You know it's a good bethesda game when within one week of release the internet has alredy cross tested every toilet paper of the milky way in the name of science.
Nirnroot texture is a mistakenly applied User Interface Texture. (your Hud, for example. in this case it could even be a UI for ingame computer systems all the way down to a small screen for a soda machine, who knows.) I would assume it missed QA due to its size and exceeding rarity as an object in the game.
Toilet role should face different ways depending on if you have pets or kids that might play with. One way just gives the best access but it makes it more inviting for pets to play with it.
It is *literally* just aiming the cutter... look at the reticle. It is focusing. A focused laser is always more destructive than an unfocused one. My mind is boggled that people didn't notice this tbh. It is, still, Fallout in space... and a ranged "weapon". Who *only* hipfires by default? SMDH
With rank 4 in lasers, I don't give a hoot about the base damage of the weapon, but having it on the target longer from using less charge is helpful in getting the fire effect to stack as many times as possible, completely melting away enemies
Outstanding video. Honestly, I haven't seen any Starfield content that has me more interested to see more than this video right here. I cannot wait to see what you and the viewers uncover about the Book and the Nirnroot mysteries. A+ content right here.
I was able to sell the illegal contraband to the party ship. People in space just having a grand time. If you do get them to pop up then join them if possible. You can also pull all of your items from your ship or people on your ship. Mainly because they ask if you want the party in 0G. Which allows you to move freely. Once inside you may need to speak to someone for that interaction. After that they tell you that the person down stairs is the one handing out drinks. Mind you there are a few items on the ship listed as "Owned" but most all drinks aren't. Anyways. Go down a floor and to the end with what looks like a DJ? The only person behind the table. They will purchase Illegal Contraband as well as stolen goods.
The plant does indeed look like a UV map. Almost looks like a UV map for a weapons magazine. It even has a 00 / 00 counter on it and then dots for ammo placement.
Weapons and gear have prefixes that denote base damage/protection. With the dame mods, a higher tier weapon will always have higher damage than a lower one. I have found: None-calibrated-advanced-refined-superior This is in addition to prefixes like "commander's or "assassin's", which tells you what preinstalled mods it has, and on colored nameplate weapons things like "berserker" which tells you about a trait that the weapon has as an extra bonus irrespective of mods
So regarding the nirnroot texture, @38:20 theres a part of it that is definitely an audio waveform thats been split into multiple parts. I was thinking it was just a mismatched texture until i saw that. UNLESS the mismatched texture is one from a computer terminal\data readout screen in the game that has a waveform on it. Which would explain the simple repeating patterns and shapes. But i still think the waveform is sus
The root appears to be a map outlining a specific star system based on the number of circles around a larger circle and the number of gas giants. Further more it seems to indicate a specific planet in that system and icons which represent terra map markers you typically find. Has to be a treasure map.
Finally getting into the Starfield content here on youtube after sinking in my first 100 hours. I've loved your Skyrim content for years now, and I'm so happy to see this level of content on Starfield now, I'll definitely be keeping up with your Starfield content from here on out, keep up the great work.
Man, that Lodge Safe bit is gonna be so useful to me. I didn't know about that, and had started selling all resources I get over 100 so my ship would stop running out of space. Now I can throw it all in there instead. Thanks!
The Book book looks like a test object to me, testing the font or the text format used by books but not using the quick brown fox line, just every letter and number. Then since it was made may as well use it in the game. Books and notes in Bethesda games are not a different texture for each page but an html overlay with the paper texture as the background so it takes very little to make them but important to get the font and format right.
I found 2 more books called book at the clinic. So a total of 3 so far. Immediately after boarding the clinic take an immediate right ( basically behind the trade authority kiosk) and in the center locker should be 2 more of the exact same, chapter 1 ,A-Z, 1-0, book called book!
The "book'" item screams placeholder to me, like someone missed it unintentionally. I don't know whether or not that makes any sense; maybe someone got lazy, and went "oh Hell, whatever," and just slapped down a generic "Book" in this spot in particular, perhaps at the end of a 12-hour crunch-time shift?
RE Toilet paper. Having the paper away from the wall is the obvious way to place it... until you're a cat owner. If you have a cat put it towards the wall, or you won't be happy ever again. The cat otherways will figure out how to roll out all the paper. And it will do it over and over again. If the toilet paper is at the wall, your cat will only turn the toilet paper roll over and over again but the paper will stay on the roll. This is a survival tip for cat owners.
If you like the room storage, in Constellation’s crafting area in the basement, right behind the research station, there is also an infinite box. Much better for materials.
I was shooting some asteroids last night and made the mistake of accidentally shooting the loot and it just kept going and going further away from me so I gave up chasing it lol
14:06 supervisor Lin explains this after the elevator ride when you first start up a new game. She berates one of the miners for using it incorrectly and says it’s a laser not a chainsaw, it’s very easy to miss but it’s technically in the tutorial.
The cutter is actually insane against most enemies if you have lasers leveled all the way up. If you rush lasers the cutter can be super useful early game bc it doesn’t require ammo
textures for the nirnroot can be found in textures06 archive, under hydroroot01 name edit: nifscope doesn't support starfield nif files, so no way to go in and check what texture is applied to the stem the easy way some could probably extract all of the decals in the game and look through manually, but it would take some time edit2: holy shit I found it xD textures05\textures\common\decal\decalmetalboltstrimsdetails01_* files just a random trimsheet edit3: looking at the footage it seems to me some of the objects are using the same map for their details, so probably just a dev missclicking and not noticing it :P
I'm near 100 hours on my character, and hadn't heard a single person ever mention the cutter efficiency trick in tip #5, absolutely game changing, commenting in hopes it helps others find this vid, keep up the amazing work, thank you so much!
The crazy thing is the game literally tells you that it does that. However, it's a blink in the missus of the instructions that most of us are skipping past.
for the root you were close with the texture-uv. it is a decals uv map, starfield uses a lot of decals for detail, its like stickers placed on top of meshes, like vent slits, screws, information on wall, logos, etc. the stem of the root just has the wrong material applied which is this decals uv texture. crazy catch tho
I agree with your assertion, but I couldn't find the texture in the BAs to confirm. Someone with more conviction will surely find them. It definitely does not seem like a literal map.
@@Bread_n_Roses they probably use decalmachin3, so the decal textures must be placed in a specific folder. idk how deep you can go into the files but each asset should have a seperate corresponding decal mesh which has the decal texture applied
One little Easter egg I had heard when I was at The Clinic from the Freestar quests, I had heard one person mention "did you ever hear the one about the platypus and the orphan?" I didn't catch what else he said, but that's for sure a Phineas and Ferb reference
The "UV Texture" on the Nirnroot might be something akin to a map, perhaps an intergalactic scavenger hunt. Bethesda is historically very good with housing Easter eggs, some very well hidden or fleshed out, and the know full well just how eager their fans are of ES6, despite very little being revealed or spoken of. It would be so cool to go do a scavenger hunt that leads to places that may or may not have callbacks or hints sprinkled in about their previous/ upcoming Elder Scrolls title. One can dream.
The storage crates in the basement of the Lodge also appear infinite and non-resetting. I've been using the one on the table between the research station and workbenches to store all my resources for quick upgrades.
Found more Nirnroot! There are a couple samples at an abandoned farm I found on Polvo in the Valo system, south west of Hopetown. Not sure if it's a random generation structure that's just rare and this is the first time I've found one, or if it's a curated location, but it's in the map that generates when you land at Hopetown, so it may be curated. Edit: Definitely curated, there were three voiced logs and a named body
Cool hope camel sees this and mentions it in a later video on easter eggs also the sweet rolls.Found some in I think it was called off world eats in the underbelly of neon don't know if that's random though since they said the menu changes often.
So, if Nirnroot canonically exists in Starfield, and Starfield is set in our universe, then Nirn must be somewhere in this universe. Meaning Bethesda officially took the stance of polytheism 😂
All i keep hearing is "but in no man's sky you cam just fly wherever you want." I try to explain to them that the planet jemison is likely a bigger data pack than the entirety of no man's sky.
i found a little skyrim easter egg. in the prison when you’re looking for the “legacy” that’s attached to the crimson fleet story line, a computer while in the last control room has a list of all the inmates and their names. at the very bottom of the list it has Delvin Malory. I loved the thieves guild quest line and i thought this was perfect little easter egg.
If you have a particularly annoying cat there is only one choice for the toilet paper, down at the back, Hanging down the front creates an irrresetable toy for a cat . Cat stands on back legs and claw at the roll with front paws, the roll spins forward and unwinds. If a cat tries it with the paper down the back it doesn't unwind you just get claw marks in the tp. Should be able to extract the Nirnroot model from the datafiles to check what the default textures are, bethesda archive extractor has been updated for starfield. Its possible the ingame plants have a material override though so untill the creation kit comes out it may be impossible to know if the extracted files reveal nothing. I'm going to guess it is a bug.
you can also sell contraband at the den in the wolf system. There are no scans to get you busted and the trade authority vendor usually has around 11000 credits
You have just helped me massively with my storage just by talking about the infinite storage at The Lodge. And for that you are a massive Chad. Thank you.
I'm very well acquainted with the creation kit and it's creation kits. That's not just a weird texture bug and if it is, it's the first time i've ever seen it.
I can explain your nirnroot mystery quite easily. The the nirnroot mesh is pointing at a decal texture by mistake. This of course as you know has gone unnoticed because it takes a magnifying glass to identify it.
Whenever you find contraband, just go straight to "the den" no scans, trade it all in for ammo etc or wait on the seat next to the vendor between restocks
I've been playing Starfield for over 50 hours and it always bugged me how I couldn't mine things faster, I even got the special orange cutter back from the starting planet and still nothing, this tip blew my mind! Thank you so much, it made my life oh so much easier!
That blue book is a just a placeholder. It's basic placeholder for when they haven't decided what to place there yet. It was either used in decoration and world filling without knowing that that one was a placeholder, or it was known that it was a placeholder, and forgotten about, and never replaced.
I am also collecting the coffee cups. I went to School in Idaho and lived there for 8 years. My favorite Potato dish is "Spicy Bake" . You slice the taters about a 1/8th of an inch then make a mix of Olive oil with salt, pepper, garlic, chopped inions, chopped peppers and cayenne with a dash of cumin. Mix the sliced taters in it and bake it.
The "Book" is simply the data structure that was used for all instantiations of books in the game. The name of 'Book' and the alphabet & numbers were dummy data the programmer entered to test the data structure. The intent was for that dummy data to be overwritten by 'actual' data by those in charge of 'writing' books. However in this one case, an installation of a book was made without any data being entered, so the programmer's test date got shown in game.
one of the outpost paintings has a picture of a snowy mountainous area with some kinds of structures in the middle (could just be trees that look that way, there's treelines to the left of the "structure") and some kind of large flying thing in the air that looks like a dragon. the area looks like a more snowy whiterun and a dragon looming over it.
Contraband is why I have an outpost on the same planet as Akilla. When you load in and they're doing the scan you can open the map and fast travel to your outpost (temporarily bypassing the scan) and I drop off my Contraband, and fly back up into orbit so I can go through the scan. If you don't you can't fast travel to Akilla. Once you do that you can land and FT to you OP get the stuff FT back and sell it at the trade authority.
I am betting the Nirnroot stem is a bugged texture. That looks like a bugged texture… and if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and talks like a duck…
I love astroid mining. It gets more bonkers if you build for it. Here's what you do: Make it buy the smallest lightest A class ship you can manage, then cram a B class reactor, shields, and the largest particle beam weapons you can manage into it. You will pop each asteroid instantly, and you will be ridiculously fast and maneuverable.
The "Book" book looks to be a test item for the in game font for the books and slates. It has the same format as True Type Font files (think Aerial or New Times Roman) with just one font point size instead of the multiple point sizes for use in word processor's or image editing software.
The mine isn't the only location you can get a NASA mug, you can find one next to a coffee machine in one of the rooms on the generational colony ship orbiting paradiso.
now, this is fun, the cutter tips, i did not need it ... since right of the bat, having and "iron sight" reflex in game ... i automatically press right mouse/trigger ... thus i noticed the laser focusing on the first mining attempt X)
Thats so funny, ive been doing business with trade authority like “Hello good sir! I would like to offload my goods!!,” no idea they were dodgy folks 😂😂😂
Dr Olase from Vanguard quest is voiced by the same guy who voiced Father in Fallout 4. Also from Fallout 4, in the crimson fleet quest Dumbrowsky is Nick Valentine voice actor. In that same quest Evgeny Rokov is voiced by the same person as Ulfric Stormcloak... thats all the voices I've recognized so far
Book: Seems like a test object left in accidentally. Mug: Obviously some space explorer or miner from the Starfield age brought it there and forgot it, but it would be so much cooler if, somehow, in universe, some NASA astronaut made it out that far. Toilet Paper: I put mine on the CORRECT WAY, thank you. Po Tay Toes: Oven roasted, obviously, tossed with some olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, maybe some onion powder and paprika. I'm living for this Nirnroot mystery now, by the way. It's all I'll be thinking about until the Pokémon DLC drops on Wednesday.
I actually found a little easter egg as i was watching this video on my second screen. The Red Mile leaderboard has an enterant 'Arnie Richardson', Arnold schwarzenegger's character in the movie The Running Man, was Ben Richards.
The storage box downstairs by the research table is also unlimited. I keep all my extra resources there. Empty it before starting to research/craft, dump back in once down
I'm pretty sure i remember seeing a flippy toilet roll in the mantis secret outpost. As to the Nirn Root, it looks to be either an atlas texture, a decal sheet, or a sprite sheet. A UV map isnt something you can see, it's part of the object data, it's basically a series of UVW (yes 2D textures do have 3 coordinates, the third is always 0) coordinates that tells a texture where each pixel sits on the model and cannot be rendered by a game engine. Fun Fact: UVW doesn't actually mean anything, when deciding what to name 2D coordinates theythoguht they could just go with XYZ, but it was already in use and caused confusion, so they just decided to go three letters back in the alphabet and called it job done. The Book "book" is probably the template used to create all the other books, and it was just left in the asset list by mistake and put in without realising.
I have found rather than paying the "fee" and then stealing the items back once on planet I can just choose my destination and pick "land". This way you end up on the planet in the city no matter where you were and you didn't have to fly past the DUI checkpoint. Edit: they patched it.
One thing you might want to consider about the ECS Constant is that it references Fallout as well. More particularly the vaults in Fallout as well as the 200 years trip. Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't vaults start opening 200 years after the bombs dropped?
What details have you found in Starfield? What's with the book Book? How did the Nasa mug get there? Which way does toilet paper go? How do you like your potatoes? What is the secret hiding in the Nirnroot?

So I shall pay forward the help you've given me, and give a little nugget to the other people here.
For those playing on keyboard and mouse, you can actually get a strong horizontal boost from your boost pack, but the option is tucked away in the settings. If you go to your keybinds, you'll see that you have two columns for your actions. One of the columns says "Alt Key." If you go down to jump, you'll see that space bar is in the left column, where as the right one is blank, assign a different key here (or even make it space bar) and when you use that key you'll get a strong horizontal boost with your jumps which is even better if you sprint before you jump.
Sadly, this doesn't work on controller, it seems that if the game detects and analog stick movement then trying to press the key on your keyboard while moving with your controller stuck, it just uses the standard boost pack movement. This means you can't use something like REWASD to bind the keyboard press to a button on your controller. Maybe someone could put together a steam controller layout for it?

I have a feeling that the "Book" was an accidental oversight from Bethesda and wasn't supposed to be in the final version of the game. It was probably them testing the book user interface, making sure every letter and number shows up correctly. The chapter 1 was likely the same but to test if the heading worked.
thats what i get from it, a default state of being for books
A dev probably needed a book for book decoration, and just picked the book that said book. Not knowing book was basic book with no book innards. Book.
It probably is the "base" for the other books, but consider the "lore". This is a sci-fi setting. These are not expensive leather parchment or paper pages like in an Elder Scroll or Fallout for that matter. This is cheap, mass-produced hardware. Someone in universe could have been just testing it and never came around to actually use it.
This is correct. The same book can be found in the Skyrim Dev Room. Its either what you said or its a resource for other books to pull from.
But it could also be an Easter egg, since there's only one... Maybe lol.
Got another tip for ya; One day on Bessel 3-B takes 57 Earth days. This means if you place resource miners on the planet (it's possible to make an outpost with access to Aluminum, Iron, Cobalt, AND Nickel), then sleep for an hour, you'll get around 57 times the "normal" amount of each resource.

Venus also has a 1:100 time:universal_time ratio. It's pretty useful to reset some things that take longer.
That book seems like it's a placeholder that accidentally got into the final game. Probably forgot to replace the text.
For real, no idea why he'd think otherwise.
Impossible.Todd said the game is done,and PERFECT.Theres now way there is a single bug,or leftover assets in the game.todd said it was perfectly done.
@@NaveSutlefhe definitely thinks that's what it is, but it's more fun if it's a mystery. Maybe it's part of a cypher and a is a hidden clue to a secret Easter egg?

As a mug collector myself I can tell you, You can get DOZENS of NASA mugs from following the main story. It may be a rare misc. item at the beginning. But when you get to a certain point you’ll be trying to offload NASA stuff like it’s a stockpile of Aurora
Yeah, I was slightly disappointed when I saw other ones out and about after I first discovered the one under the bridge. I'm the guy that searches out every nook and cranny and takes 2 hours to clear a 20 min "dungeon', so I was hoping these mugs were a hidden-type collection thing.
@XxSpeedxxDemonxX have you gotten all the snow globes yet? They look pretty good, they're hard to find, and really good decoration so I would recommend.
I asume nasa on earth has a ton of them
@residentpotato3091 I have not been searching too much right now. Kinda been doing the NG+'s right now, just trying out different stuff while gathering power. This NG+ gameplay model has me putting off the hard-core collecting of all things until I settle on a final run. Due to the loss of all items and such. It is still hard to put my tendencies in check and hurry (normal play) thru quests even knowing why I'm playing thru differently than I normally would - and will eventually. I have seen the globes out and about, tho, and there is a universe where they will be mine. Lol
@@justapotato4231 I like to put a snow-globe on the dashboard of my ship so you can see it while you’re flying
How to deal with contraband scans: USE SHIELDED CARGO HOLDS, also a jammer once those become available.
And go to wolf or somewhere outside the settled systems
The best chance at not being detected is 90%. So there is always a chance it will be detected.
@@Safetytrousers Right, but it's certainly not a bad idea to use shielded cargo and jammers. It could be that you forget you have some contraband in storage and then jump to a system that scans your ship and you get caught with it. The best way to deal with it though is to go to a star system that doesn't scan ships or dock with a star station that has a Trade Authority vendor in it as soon as you get the contraband.
The best way where you don't get caught is easy.
1. Go to any non settlement planet where you won't be scanned.
2. Drop the contraband on the ship's ground.
3. Walk out of.the ship onto the planet.
4. Fast travel to a settlement.
5. Go back to the ship and pick the contraband up.
6. Sell it.
I just only go to the Den or Red Mile
In the Lodge behind the Weapons Modification station there are three ammo boxes that also have infinite storage. I've been using them to store resources in a more convenient location. Just so I don't have to run to the room then back to the basement. Just head straight on down and get to the upgrading.
If true you’re a hero, that felt like the longest set of stairs with 3000IBs on me
you better pray they dont patch that
Oh good! This was brought up here! I hope to God they don't patch this because I lost track of the thousands of pounds this is being used for.
Apparently has a 138 hr flag for reset
@Autissm420 exactly why I haven't put a single thing in there , if they come out and say it's intentional sure il use it but I'm not tying to log on one day to my hoarded stockpile of permanent markers and tissue boxes being gone 😂
Love that you hammering out new content. So excited for your TES6 videos in 20 years ❤
I'll be retired by then so I'll have plenty of time to play.
We still have 6 more consoles for Skyrim to release on first
@@MrScrawnjuandon’t forget your toilet paper dispenser and windows. Not the operating system, your actual windows.
i bet we get it in 2028, which may as well be 20 years.
@@chadwolf3840 I'd honestly be surprised if we got it that soon.
Loving the regular Camelworks content. We’re eating good.
That cutter one is great.
E: Even better than the safe is the little innocuous storage box downstairs near all the workstations. From the research one, 180 and go through the doorway. To the left of the doorway on the right is a storage box on the table.
Unlimited space. Near the work stations. Big win.
E2: Bugged texture?
The first or second rank of ship piloting gives you access to a thruster mode. [RB on console] With this mode on you can spin your ship super fast while keeping the same momentum. Great in combat when someone is behind you. Boost away then enter thruster mode and spin 180 and take them out while still speeding away from them.
THAT'S WHAT THAT MEANS
@wheresmymuffins yes, that is what that means. Unfortunately almost all the content creators on UA-cam gets it wrong...
@@sporksabre to their credit, it's not like the game is doing very much to correct them, so...
@wheresmymuffins Very true! I assume it is in the help menus but who ever reads those.
One would think that there would be a tutorial pop-up like there is at other points in the game.
Oh, you need a level of piloting, okay. That's why it wasn't working.
Thank you!
You know it's a good bethesda game when within one week of release the internet has alredy cross tested every toilet paper of the milky way in the name of science.
Nirnroot texture is a mistakenly applied User Interface Texture. (your Hud, for example. in this case it could even be a UI for ingame computer systems all the way down to a small screen for a soda machine, who knows.) I would assume it missed QA due to its size and exceeding rarity as an object in the game.
Toilet role should face different ways depending on if you have pets or kids that might play with.
One way just gives the best access but it makes it more inviting for pets to play with it.
That Charged Cutter feature deserves a mod that outright removes weak mode, because there is no reason to not to use the full power.
Yeah I agree, that would be lovely.
It is *literally* just aiming the cutter... look at the reticle. It is focusing. A focused laser is always more destructive than an unfocused one.
My mind is boggled that people didn't notice this tbh. It is, still, Fallout in space... and a ranged "weapon". Who *only* hipfires by default? SMDH
With rank 4 in lasers, I don't give a hoot about the base damage of the weapon, but having it on the target longer from using less charge is helpful in getting the fire effect to stack as many times as possible, completely melting away enemies
The Elder Scrolls mystery is pretty interesting. I look forward to updates!
But the book looks like a dev placeholder problem to me.
Outstanding video. Honestly, I haven't seen any Starfield content that has me more interested to see more than this video right here. I cannot wait to see what you and the viewers uncover about the Book and the Nirnroot mysteries. A+ content right here.
Regarding "The Book" I guess that it contains everything you need for a book, just remix what you find inside and create any story you want!
Fun fact, the book the 5min mark is actually the same book Todd Howard uses to answer questions in inteviews
Seems like a weird strategy but somehow it just works
16x the lies
I was able to sell the illegal contraband to the party ship. People in space just having a grand time. If you do get them to pop up then join them if possible. You can also pull all of your items from your ship or people on your ship. Mainly because they ask if you want the party in 0G. Which allows you to move freely. Once inside you may need to speak to someone for that interaction. After that they tell you that the person down stairs is the one handing out drinks. Mind you there are a few items on the ship listed as "Owned" but most all drinks aren't. Anyways. Go down a floor and to the end with what looks like a DJ? The only person behind the table. They will purchase Illegal Contraband as well as stolen goods.
The plant does indeed look like a UV map. Almost looks like a UV map for a weapons magazine. It even has a 00 / 00 counter on it and then dots for ammo placement.
Weapons and gear have prefixes that denote base damage/protection. With the dame mods, a higher tier weapon will always have higher damage than a lower one. I have found:
None-calibrated-advanced-refined-superior
This is in addition to prefixes like "commander's or "assassin's", which tells you what preinstalled mods it has, and on colored nameplate weapons things like "berserker" which tells you about a trait that the weapon has as an extra bonus irrespective of mods
So regarding the nirnroot texture, @38:20 theres a part of it that is definitely an audio waveform thats been split into multiple parts. I was thinking it was just a mismatched texture until i saw that. UNLESS the mismatched texture is one from a computer terminal\data readout screen in the game that has a waveform on it. Which would explain the simple repeating patterns and shapes. But i still think the waveform is sus
Knowing very little about the subject: is there anyway to play this?
@@Preston241 likely not until creation kit access, and can rip the texture at high quality.
@@Preston241 but if the texture is high enough resolution, it should be able to give back audio by reading the waveform
The root appears to be a map outlining a specific star system based on the number of circles around a larger circle and the number of gas giants. Further more it seems to indicate a specific planet in that system and icons which represent terra map markers you typically find. Has to be a treasure map.
Imagine House Va'ruun hid a to thier homeworld in a Nirnrot. That be something.
I would bust if this lead to nirn in starfield
I was going to say the same thing... maybe it's a map to the planet where elder scrolls is
It's a map to Raxxla.
One of the icons looks a bit like a Stargate from SG-1
Finally getting into the Starfield content here on youtube after sinking in my first 100 hours. I've loved your Skyrim content for years now, and I'm so happy to see this level of content on Starfield now, I'll definitely be keeping up with your Starfield content from here on out, keep up the great work.
Thanks mate, plenty more to come!
The Nirnroot texture kinda reminds me of the Voyager gold record
Camel: All these plants that don't matter to anyone.
Botanists:.......
Man, that Lodge Safe bit is gonna be so useful to me. I didn't know about that, and had started selling all resources I get over 100 so my ship would stop running out of space. Now I can throw it all in there instead. Thanks!
The Book book looks like a test object to me, testing the font or the text format used by books but not using the quick brown fox line, just every letter and number. Then since it was made may as well use it in the game. Books and notes in Bethesda games are not a different texture for each page but an html overlay with the paper texture as the background so it takes very little to make them but important to get the font and format right.
That's what I was thinking too. Testing object that made it into base game
@@BKDenied Intentionally made it into the game one should say.
I found 2 more books called book at the clinic. So a total of 3 so far. Immediately after boarding the clinic take an immediate right ( basically behind the trade authority kiosk) and in the center locker should be 2 more of the exact same, chapter 1 ,A-Z, 1-0, book called book!
S. Wheeler patent number 459,516 patented 15/9/1891 "wrapping or toilet paper roll" the inventor of the thing has the answer everyone needs
The "book'" item screams placeholder to me, like someone missed it unintentionally. I don't know whether or not that makes any sense; maybe someone got lazy, and went "oh Hell, whatever," and just slapped down a generic "Book" in this spot in particular, perhaps at the end of a 12-hour crunch-time shift?
RE Toilet paper. Having the paper away from the wall is the obvious way to place it... until you're a cat owner. If you have a cat put it towards the wall, or you won't be happy ever again. The cat otherways will figure out how to roll out all the paper. And it will do it over and over again. If the toilet paper is at the wall, your cat will only turn the toilet paper roll over and over again but the paper will stay on the roll.
This is a survival tip for cat owners.
If you like the room storage, in Constellation’s crafting area in the basement, right behind the research station, there is also an infinite box. Much better for materials.
I have found at least one other unlimited storage container, at the end of one of the faction quest lines. Don't want to spoil it more than that
I was shooting some asteroids last night and made the mistake of accidentally shooting the loot and it just kept going and going further away from me so I gave up chasing it lol
Ye I do that every now and then. Just worth letting it go
14:06 supervisor Lin explains this after the elevator ride when you first start up a new game. She berates one of the miners for using it incorrectly and says it’s a laser not a chainsaw, it’s very easy to miss but it’s technically in the tutorial.
As far as using the cutter in combat, it's the best weapon in the game.
Fr tho that stagger when charging it is nutty 👌🏽
The cutter is actually insane against most enemies if you have lasers leveled all the way up. If you rush lasers the cutter can be super useful early game bc it doesn’t require ammo
textures for the nirnroot can be found in textures06 archive, under hydroroot01 name
edit: nifscope doesn't support starfield nif files, so no way to go in and check what texture is applied to the stem the easy way
some could probably extract all of the decals in the game and look through manually, but it would take some time
edit2: holy shit I found it xD textures05\textures\common\decal\decalmetalboltstrimsdetails01_* files
just a random trimsheet
edit3: looking at the footage it seems to me some of the objects are using the same map for their details, so probably just a dev missclicking and not noticing it :P
I'm near 100 hours on my character, and hadn't heard a single person ever mention the cutter efficiency trick in tip #5, absolutely game changing, commenting in hopes it helps others find this vid, keep up the amazing work, thank you so much!
The crazy thing is the game literally tells you that it does that. However, it's a blink in the missus of the instructions that most of us are skipping past.
for the root you were close with the texture-uv. it is a decals uv map, starfield uses a lot of decals for detail, its like stickers placed on top of meshes, like vent slits, screws, information on wall, logos, etc. the stem of the root just has the wrong material applied which is this decals uv texture. crazy catch tho
I agree with your assertion, but I couldn't find the texture in the BAs to confirm. Someone with more conviction will surely find them. It definitely does not seem like a literal map.
@@Bread_n_Roses they probably use decalmachin3, so the decal textures must be placed in a specific folder. idk how deep you can go into the files but each asset should have a seperate corresponding decal mesh which has the decal texture applied
@@Bread_n_Roses it's in the textures05 ba2, decalmetalboltstrimsdetails01
One little Easter egg I had heard when I was at The Clinic from the Freestar quests, I had heard one person mention "did you ever hear the one about the platypus and the orphan?" I didn't catch what else he said, but that's for sure a Phineas and Ferb reference
The Nirnroot thing reminds me of a DNA sequence similar to what was on the Voyager craft.
The Nirnroot mystery deserves its own video!
The "UV Texture" on the Nirnroot might be something akin to a map, perhaps an intergalactic scavenger hunt. Bethesda is historically very good with housing Easter eggs, some very well hidden or fleshed out, and the know full well just how eager their fans are of ES6, despite very little being revealed or spoken of. It would be so cool to go do a scavenger hunt that leads to places that may or may not have callbacks or hints sprinkled in about their previous/ upcoming Elder Scrolls title. One can dream.
The storage crates in the basement of the Lodge also appear infinite and non-resetting. I've been using the one on the table between the research station and workbenches to store all my resources for quick upgrades.
Found more Nirnroot! There are a couple samples at an abandoned farm I found on Polvo in the Valo system, south west of Hopetown. Not sure if it's a random generation structure that's just rare and this is the first time I've found one, or if it's a curated location, but it's in the map that generates when you land at Hopetown, so it may be curated.
Edit: Definitely curated, there were three voiced logs and a named body
Cool hope camel sees this and mentions it in a later video on easter eggs also the sweet rolls.Found some in I think it was called off world eats in the underbelly of neon don't know if that's random though since they said the menu changes often.
Bro...did u check the texture???
You can meet the hunter at the start of the game and have conversation with him. He is located in the viewport in
New Atlantis.
there is absolutely a code in the stem, or something, they would not put that much effort into a "missing texture" texture. great video!
Oh my god I had NO idea that you could power up the Cutter. That’s HUGE. Thank you so much!!
So, if Nirnroot canonically exists in Starfield, and Starfield is set in our universe, then Nirn must be somewhere in this universe.
Meaning Bethesda officially took the stance of polytheism 😂
Maybe someone will make a mod for Nirn, the whole planet will be in the game somewhere maybe? Maybe we can play skyrim in starfield?
Camel be like "Let's see Paul Allen's Mug"
All i keep hearing is "but in no man's sky you cam just fly wherever you want."
I try to explain to them that the planet jemison is likely a bigger data pack than the entirety of no man's sky.
Theres another "book" book hidden inside a locker in the Clinic next to the entrance/exit. Gotta open those lockers
i found a little skyrim easter egg. in the prison when you’re looking for the “legacy” that’s attached to the crimson fleet story line, a computer while in the last control room has a list of all the inmates and their names. at the very bottom of the list it has Delvin Malory. I loved the thieves guild quest line and i thought this was perfect little easter egg.
The nirnroot is a map of a star-system. If you go to the specific planet you get the release date for TES VI.
If you have a particularly annoying cat there is only one choice for the toilet paper, down at the back, Hanging down the front creates an irrresetable toy for a cat . Cat stands on back legs and claw at the roll with front paws, the roll spins forward and unwinds. If a cat tries it with the paper down the back it doesn't unwind you just get claw marks in the tp. Should be able to extract the Nirnroot model from the datafiles to check what the default textures are, bethesda archive extractor has been updated for starfield. Its possible the ingame plants have a material override though so untill the creation kit comes out it may be impossible to know if the extracted files reveal nothing. I'm going to guess it is a bug.
Bruh. The cutter being charged up just fixed my life 80 hours in
you can also sell contraband at the den in the wolf system. There are no scans to get you busted and the trade authority vendor usually has around 11000 credits
You have just helped me massively with my storage
just by talking about the infinite storage at The Lodge. And for that you are a massive Chad. Thank you.
So happy I have a new game to listen to Camelworks break down
I'm very well acquainted with the creation kit and it's creation kits. That's not just a weird texture bug and if it is, it's the first time i've ever seen it.
I can explain your nirnroot mystery quite easily. The the nirnroot mesh is pointing at a decal texture by mistake. This of course as you know has gone unnoticed because it takes a magnifying glass to identify it.
This is the Starfield content ive been waiting for
Whenever you find contraband, just go straight to "the den" no scans, trade it all in for ammo etc or wait on the seat next to the vendor between restocks
thank you for these guides, this game is a whole vibe and I love it
The Nirnroot is the ES6 topographical map-- because they already have the landscape topography mapped out
It would be nice if they linked the basement crafting stations to your Lodge safe in your room.
I've been playing Starfield for over 50 hours and it always bugged me how I couldn't mine things faster, I even got the special orange cutter back from the starting planet and still nothing, this tip blew my mind! Thank you so much, it made my life oh so much easier!
You simultaneously need a Cypher to play and yet none of it feels like it matters.
That blue book is a just a placeholder. It's basic placeholder for when they haven't decided what to place there yet. It was either used in decoration and world filling without knowing that that one was a placeholder, or it was known that it was a placeholder, and forgotten about, and never replaced.
The legendary camelworks has returned making the most GOATED Bethesda content imaginable
Bro the storage in the room, absolutely helped me. That was my main problem was finding storage for all my crap. Love your video. Lol.
I am also collecting the coffee cups. I went to School in Idaho and lived there for 8 years. My favorite Potato dish is "Spicy Bake" . You slice the taters about a 1/8th of an inch then make a mix of Olive oil with salt, pepper, garlic, chopped inions, chopped peppers and cayenne with a dash of cumin. Mix the sliced taters in it and bake it.
The "Book" is simply the data structure that was used for all instantiations of books in the game. The name of 'Book' and the alphabet & numbers were dummy data the programmer entered to test the data structure. The intent was for that dummy data to be overwritten by 'actual' data by those in charge of 'writing' books. However in this one case, an installation of a book was made without any data being entered, so the programmer's test date got shown in game.
Possible that the nirn root was a last minute placement as often times Easter eggs are place quickly so that the sneak past quality oversigh.
imagine you touch the nirnroot, and you get teleported to nirn and have a space battle against alduin or something funny
one of the outpost paintings has a picture of a snowy mountainous area with some kinds of structures in the middle (could just be trees that look that way, there's treelines to the left of the "structure") and some kind of large flying thing in the air that looks like a dragon. the area looks like a more snowy whiterun and a dragon looming over it.
Thanks!
Contraband is why I have an outpost on the same planet as Akilla. When you load in and they're doing the scan you can open the map and fast travel to your outpost (temporarily bypassing the scan) and I drop off my Contraband, and fly back up into orbit so I can go through the scan. If you don't you can't fast travel to Akilla. Once you do that you can land and FT to you OP get the stuff FT back and sell it at the trade authority.
I am betting the Nirnroot stem is a bugged texture. That looks like a bugged texture… and if it looks like a duck, walks like a duck, and talks like a duck…
Doing what you do best. I’m glad there’s a new world of content for stuff like this.😊
I love astroid mining. It gets more bonkers if you build for it. Here's what you do:
Make it buy the smallest lightest A class ship you can manage, then cram a B class reactor, shields, and the largest particle beam weapons you can manage into it. You will pop each asteroid instantly, and you will be ridiculously fast and maneuverable.
In the south, in America, they might also refer to potatoes as "taters", though that's usually more of a humourous thing.
Thanks! Too send so many
The "Book" book looks to be a test item for the in game font for the books and slates. It has the same format as True Type Font files (think Aerial or New Times Roman) with just one font point size instead of the multiple point sizes for use in word processor's or image editing software.
The mine isn't the only location you can get a NASA mug, you can find one next to a coffee machine in one of the rooms on the generational colony ship orbiting paradiso.
There are at least two, limitless storages in the basement aswell. One is directly behind the research station on the table.
now, this is fun, the cutter tips, i did not need it ... since right of the bat, having and "iron sight" reflex in game ... i automatically press right mouse/trigger ... thus i noticed the laser focusing on the first mining attempt X)
Thats so funny, ive been doing business with trade authority like “Hello good sir! I would like to offload my goods!!,” no idea they were dodgy folks 😂😂😂
Dr Olase from Vanguard quest is voiced by the same guy who voiced Father in Fallout 4. Also from Fallout 4, in the crimson fleet quest Dumbrowsky is Nick Valentine voice actor.

Book: Seems like a test object left in accidentally.
Mug: Obviously some space explorer or miner from the Starfield age brought it there and forgot it, but it would be so much cooler if, somehow, in universe, some NASA astronaut made it out that far.
Toilet Paper: I put mine on the CORRECT WAY, thank you.
Po Tay Toes: Oven roasted, obviously, tossed with some olive oil, salt, pepper, garlic, maybe some onion powder and paprika.
I'm living for this Nirnroot mystery now, by the way. It's all I'll be thinking about until the Pokémon DLC drops on Wednesday.
I actually found a little easter egg as i was watching this video on my second screen. The Red Mile leaderboard has an enterant 'Arnie Richardson', Arnold schwarzenegger's character in the movie The Running Man, was Ben Richards.
The storage box downstairs by the research table is also unlimited. I keep all my extra resources there. Empty it before starting to research/craft, dump back in once down
I'm pretty sure i remember seeing a flippy toilet roll in the mantis secret outpost.
As to the Nirn Root, it looks to be either an atlas texture, a decal sheet, or a sprite sheet. A UV map isnt something you can see, it's part of the object data, it's basically a series of UVW (yes 2D textures do have 3 coordinates, the third is always 0) coordinates that tells a texture where each pixel sits on the model and cannot be rendered by a game engine.
Fun Fact: UVW doesn't actually mean anything, when deciding what to name 2D coordinates theythoguht they could just go with XYZ, but it was already in use and caused confusion, so they just decided to go three letters back in the alphabet and called it job done.
The Book "book" is probably the template used to create all the other books, and it was just left in the asset list by mistake and put in without realising.
Great movie m8 xD The way you raised the tension of final mistery was smthg as the best suspense-like. Gratz!😊
I have found rather than paying the "fee" and then stealing the items back once on planet I can just choose my destination and pick "land". This way you end up on the planet in the city no matter where you were and you didn't have to fly past the DUI checkpoint.
Edit: they patched it.
One thing you might want to consider about the ECS Constant is that it references Fallout as well. More particularly the vaults in Fallout as well as the 200 years trip. Correct me if I'm wrong but didn't vaults start opening 200 years after the bombs dropped?
