How to Increase Settlement Size in Fallout 4 (No Mods Required)

Okay, here's a simple trick on how to increase your settlement size in Fallout 4 without using any mods.

Note: This trick requires you to enter a console command and yes, it works on PC only.

Increase Settlement Size via Console

1. Enter workshop mode.
2. Open console with the ~ key, click on the workbench, type:
3. getav 348 - Gets the current number of triangles used by player.
4. getav 34A - Gets the current number of draw calls used by player.
5. setav 349 # - Set the maximum triangle budget for the settlement.
6. setav 34B # - Set the maximum draw budget for the settlement.

Video Evidence that it works:

Optimization - Optional

Let's try and minimize the damage to our hardware:

1. getav 348 - check CURRENT triangles
2. getav 34a - check CURRENT draws
3. getav 349 - check MAX triangles
4. getav 34b - check MAX draws

Now, the trick is to only change the MAX draws or triangles if the CURRENT ones are almost reaching the limit.

• Only increase MAX triangles when needed.
• It is usually the MAX draws that needs to be increased only.

Do not over do the MAX triangles/draws to avoid any crashes or anything...

• Try increasing the MAX draws by 1000 each time
• Try increasing the MAX triangles by 100,000 each time.
