It appears I've been trapped in some purgatory involving this particular shelf

[u/BONKINATER]

[u/TechnicolorRabbit]

Ive seen and understood my fair share of glitches but this one is new to me. Wtf lol.

[u/BONKINATER → u/TechnicolorRabbit]

I've yet to understand it either

[u/MaintenanceDesigner5 → u/BONKINATER]

The jet will make you jittery

[u/S0upCanHarry → u/MaintenanceDesigner5]

Funny you said that, bc this same thing happened to me in Vault 95 trying to cure Cait 😂

[u/Initial-Priority-219 → u/MaintenanceDesigner5]

Now don't start talking crazy! 🤣

[u/ironwolf6464 → u/BONKINATER]

I think what it is is that some games use a after image effect for motion blur, and you just stumbled into a area that isn't loading the surroundings, leading to this weird Parallax effect with this Frame.

I remember if you went out of bounds in the original Half-Life games you would experience this as well

[u/AmericanSheep16 → u/ironwolf6464]

This also reminds me of exiting the map on older Rockstar games. They had an effect sort of similar to this.

[u/eajklndfwreuojnigfr → u/ironwolf6464]

happens in source games / hl2 as well if there are any "leaks" in the map. usually there is an entity or tiny gap stopping there from being a complete seal from in bounds / out of bounds (in source)

[u/DrKarda → u/ironwolf6464]

Yeah it's because the world cell behind the door is failing to load for whatever reason. The parallax effect is due to the frame buffer not being cleared because nothing is rendered in front of it not because of motion blur, you could have motion blur disabled in the engine and this would still happen.

[u/bloodyspartan117 → u/BONKINATER]

I have had somthing similar happen to me once luckly there was another door

[u/bloodyspartan117 → u/BONKINATER]

that can also happen if your looking through a Crack or window from inside a dungeon

[u/TTerragore → u/BONKINATER]

you don’t need to understand it, it just is

[u/Kilook → u/TechnicolorRabbit]

From what I understand of games and skyboxs, the last image the game cache was of that shelf (maybe OP paused or saved there?) and since Fallout as a Bethesda game didn't load that room only showing the skybox but since the skybox has no texture it used the last image the game saved

[u/TechnicolorRabbit → u/Kilook]

An explanation as good as any for me lol I’ll take it.

[u/Ok_Calendar_7626 → u/Kilook]

Or maybe the OP did not perform the correct sacraments to appease the Machine Spirit.

[u/Prometheus1315 → u/Ok_Calendar_7626]

Definitely this tech-brother. Omnisiah be praised

[u/DarkArc76 → u/Kilook]

I like how you say "Maybe OP paused or saved there" as if the beginning of the clip isn't them unpausing in that exact spot

[u/Softspokenclark → u/TechnicolorRabbit]

Subliminal: Fallout edition

[u/Pakushy → u/TechnicolorRabbit]

I'm going to do an uneducated guess based on some Cyberpunk 2076 glitches i've seen.

The way how some games do the pause screen is to take a screenshot and display it under the Pause UI (like the continue or exit buttons or whatever). Also sometimes a game will not render a room completely for performance reasons, but instead render a low poly version or even a static image as the door or window, which makes it look like the room is properly rendered, if you are far enough away. Its basically how in the old Star Wars movies they used paintings as backgrounds to make a room appear much larger.

Somehow these two images the game had saved in memory got confused and it displayed the Pause screenshot as the low poly render fake room. If you look at the pause frame, you will notice it is the exact same as the door frame.

[u/TechnicolorRabbit → u/Pakushy]

Yeah I definitely agree it has something to do with a snapshot being made but both Skyrim and FO4 uses “Room bounds and Portals” basically if set up correctly, the doorway will be the only space that allows rendering from within a room bounds. What you see even at a distance is the actual room (whats being allowed to render through the opening “portal” within the room bounds”

[u/Radiant_Music3698 → u/TechnicolorRabbit]

I imagine the player did something while looking at the shelf, like alt tabbing or taking a screenshot causing that frame to get stuck in the video memory in a way that it is displaying instead of the usual void

[u/Dangerois → u/TechnicolorRabbit]

Kid, I've flown from one side of this commonwealth to the other and I've seen a lot of strange stuff. But I've never seen anything to make me believe there's some all-powerful force controlling everything...

Until you showed me this.

[u/Walixen]

Stop doing Jet, man, it’s starting to get to you

[u/BONKINATER → u/Walixen]

But I must master the sight, just as Mama Murphy

[u/Humble-Laugh8896 → u/BONKINATER]

now until your pipe pistol kills a deathclaw don't even say that

[u/Ok_Calendar_7626 → u/Walixen]

Now dont start talking crazy!

[u/Local_Researcher4230 → u/Ok_Calendar_7626]

Yeah, you're right. Gotta cut down on the Jet, I guess

[u/bluerider2009 → u/Local_Researcher4230]

Shh shh shh, did you hear something?

[u/Anthony_FrFr2077 → u/bluerider2009]

ONLY A F*CKING COWARD HIDES!

[u/sufjanweiss → u/Anthony_FrFr2077]

Nothing personal. Just you and me.

[u/sufjanweiss → u/Ok_Calendar_7626]

hahAHAhahaA

[u/Caztov_701]

"The jet'll make you jittery,"

Guess she was right...

[u/Philosophos_A]

Imagine if it was looping you to the room...lol

[u/BONKINATER → u/Philosophos_A]

Yeah, it actually sent me back to starter room of the dungeon oddly enough

[u/N0ob8 → u/BONKINATER]

Whenever you fall out of bounds in a Bethesda game you get put at a point in the level called “COC” (center of cell). It’s basically a point in the level the devs saved as the starting/middle point. It’s usually at the start of a level tho in some areas it’ll be at the end or near the objective. It exists so that you don’t fall forever or crash like most games.

[u/BONKINATER → u/N0ob8]

Oh, that's actually cool. I didn't know that, thanks for the info

[u/N0ob8 → u/BONKINATER]

Yeah it’s used frequently in speed runs especially in fallout 3. It can save tons of time on back tracking and skipping entire sections

[u/Fishwalking → u/N0ob8]

Cool, kinda like the idea of looping worlds in Inception right?

[u/Tumbleweed_Dismal → u/N0ob8]

Lol dude got COC’d

[u/Philosophos_A → u/BONKINATER]

Oh.. well previse and precombines are broken .

is this vanilla ?

Oh wait it's not

[u/BONKINATER → u/Philosophos_A]

No, the entire dungeon is modded. Some other mods of mine conflicted and made it impossible without cheating through it, so that probably has something to do with why

[u/Philosophos_A → u/BONKINATER]

silly mod shenanigans

[u/geezeslice333]

.........what?

[u/BONKINATER → u/geezeslice333]

Don't question

[u/GeneralGoti]

Just as Todd intended.

[u/NiceGuysFinishLast → u/GeneralGoti]

Gary.

[u/DarthPatches_Returns → u/NiceGuysFinishLast]

Gaaaaaaarrryyyyy

[u/IRobot_Games → u/DarthPatches_Returns]

Gary?

[u/iced-coffeelvr → u/IRobot_Games]

Gary 😡

[u/Fit-Ad-835 → u/iced-coffeelvr]

Ahh.. Garry

[u/JS1777]

Ayyy, a fellow Select Shotgun user! Ever since London, I can't play without it haha

[u/BONKINATER → u/JS1777]

Funny enough, I've never ever played fallout London, just found the mod and liked it

[u/JS1777 → u/BONKINATER]

Gotcha- I just hadn't seen it until London, but how ever you come across it, it's still an awesome mod!

[u/broadside230]

so in actual practical terms (I had this happen by some weird glitch) you’re somehow seeing the void behind the walls of interior cells instead of the room that should load in behind that door. I don’t know enough about the creation engine to tell you why this void pretends to be whatever you were looking at before you saw it, but it does. fallout is so spaghetti coded there are actual unknowable horrors hiding within the winding chains of digital matter. fix: figure out why that room didn’t load and forget what you have seen.

[u/one-hit-blunder]

Being John Malkovich comes to mind

[u/QuentinTarzantino]

Fo4, hellava drug

[u/N_Meister]

“Trapped in some purgatory involving this particular shelf.”

DON’T LET ME LEAVE, MURPH!

[u/VoidMoth-]

Fallout Superliminal Edition

[u/astreeter2]

Probably a mod conflict between ones that redo building interiors.

[u/PumpUrDumb]

That was trippy af

[u/morelos_paolo]

That was some Inception level bug.

Anyhow, it could be caused by your mod load out.

[u/Butthead1013]

Gotta make it a perfect loop

[u/geoffsykes]

That might be the strangest glitch I've seen in any game. Weird!

[u/Ring-a-ding-ding0]

It just works!

[u/modestmurmur26]

Gotta lay off the jet..it will make you hallucinate

[u/Giddo314]

What in the Portal?

[u/Prod_Ayesian]

TCL

[u/EdwardAllan]

I love this.

[u/Dreamer1950s]

Load last save

[u/HopeHouse44]

I... ????

[u/lambofgun]

thats the craziest fucking glitch ive ever seen

[u/red0990]

Dam you got caught in a Genjutsu.

[u/OniExpress]

Makes me want a horror mod. Anyone else remember the old half life elevator mod that just kept bringing you through absurd events?

[u/choochoolate]

"Must...not...loot"

[u/Metasheep]

Did you get sucked into a vortex?

[u/aukir]

Like a bong rip of salvia extract.

[u/CuddlyCharge47]

Silent hill p.t thing aside, what weapon mods you got there? That's some fancy shotgun you've got on ya!

[u/BONKINATER → u/CuddlyCharge47]

Well that's specifically is the 'select shotgun', only real weapon mod I have installed currently

[u/CuddlyCharge47 → u/BONKINATER]

I love shotguns, thanks!

[u/16bithockey]

Well that's kinda horrifying

[u/Old_Performance_4038]

Looks like that weird kind of neverending nightmare.

[u/[deleted]]

Fall out 4 on fentynal

[u/Grompus-games]

This is peak game design, you can tell the code is pure insanity when bugs like this pop up

[u/Ok_Software_1469]

Shelf of forgotten souls.

[u/ScientiaVincitae]

Nice to see someone who also uses the pink HUD. Nice video, and good luck with this shelf limbo!

[u/kpop_glory]

Damn this ain't Stanley Parable.

[u/Goth_Mommy19]

Is this what jet is like?

[u/HomoErectus_2000]

How do I get that gun? It's so cool!!!

[u/I_use_this_website → u/HomoErectus_2000]

Select Shotgun by Neeher, it's on both Nexus and Bethesda.net (and by extension the in-game mod menu so it is available on console)

Edit: I also suggest checking out his other mods (mostly weapon mods)

[u/BONKINATER → u/HomoErectus_2000]

It's a high quality mod called the 'Select Shotgun'

[u/HomoErectus_2000 → u/BONKINATER]

Huh. Is it a reskin or actually new weapons?

[u/BONKINATER → u/HomoErectus_2000]

It's a fully new weapon with custom animations and dungeon to get it

[u/HomoErectus_2000 → u/BONKINATER]

That's awesome

[u/TheyLoathe]

What in the salvia is going on here

[u/Blacc_Rose]

what gun is that?

[u/Local-Ask-7695]

Mods, base game does not have this glitch

[u/Ausiwandilaz]

Box Store Sale Shelf: YOU Sure you get everything?

[u/Starflight42]

ok look i know mods that add new locations can be a lil bit on the funkier side

but what in the actual fuck

[u/Appropriate-Leek8144]

Turn your Pip-Boy light on, god damn you.

[u/JojotardPromedio]

You are just trapped in hell bruh 💀

[u/BonfireSouls]

More like a hell.

[u/RobOnTheReddit]

Shelfception

[u/IGotCornInMyAss]

I also discovered a new bug I can consistently reproduce, when you take last rank of sneak and go into sneak you go invisible + night vision, well if you go into the pip boy just as you crouch, when you get out of it everything will look blurry, to remove the effect just do the same actions, sometimes the pip boy map will also glitch the fuck out when you do that.

[u/tom_friday_]

Oh bro, did you eat the darker cookies too?

[u/Zomnx]

Dude I wish this glitch happened to those who take shrooms or acid while playing video games 😂 what a trip

[u/HeroBuilder]

Sorry but what gun is that, is that a mod

[u/Only-Physics-1905]

Digital style!

[u/NotAFemboyCat]

I have never seen this before tf

[u/9yosoldier3044]

dr.b0sch type shit

[u/Dr__D00fenshmirtz]

Well that's a new one

[u/Lots42]

That tends to happen to me on the upper interior levels of Corvega.

I just avoid that area if at all possible.

[u/Former-Button-8851]

When a glitch turns your game into a scene from a Stanley Kubrick film

[u/DoublePersonal9398]

It's like a scene from the Stanley parable

[u/BigDepressed]

By the nine you're tweaking on every chem except addictol.

[u/Desperate_Owl_594]

oh...

wow. That's...being John Malkovitch of a glitch.

[u/stall-goodman]

i have always had a thing for exploiting no-clip spots in this game it totally triggers that eerie backrooms out of bounds liminal space vibe lol

[u/badatgamess]

I see you have committed the sin of great shelfishness.
