I got my knight ring that way. Just not sure if I also didnt get my EXP from it

[pliant bay]

I love this. This game gave me the opportunity to play out one of my own characters lol.

[frigid hill]

Marksman's ring for me there. I probably missed the xp too.

[frigid hill]

Always awesome to make your characters in a game!

[pliant bay]

It is! I've been writing and building this world for a long time, and the fact that there's a game like this out there now? Oh! Bliss! Can't wait to really get into it.

[dense igloo]

im proud of the foundation of my town 😭

[oblique quarry]

i bet it Could be an awesome dnd character

[worthy crane]

I wanted to create a small town, with my mates. Bank, blacksmith, market, farm, harbor master's office, gallows, alchemist, houses, central square, quay that can accommodate more than 15 ships... And we still have so many buildings to build...

[pliant bay]

He could be lol. He's a priest turned pirate, I actually wrote a short story about him.

[oblique quarry]

knarly looking priest lmao

[frigid hill]

I had a pirate character for a Pathfinder campaign in the works, but sadly it didn't go anywhere so I don't have the connection you have to yours. But I might recreate that old sea dog.

[pliant bay]

I say go for it! One can inspire the other. Might rekindle your interest in the character.

[pliant bay]

All the best pirates are lol

[stray kiln]

LOVE THIS

cant wait to see more of it

[frigid hill]

Eh, I don't have anywhere to play him. He fitted the campaign I had made him for, but since then I've had others to fit in other places.

[tranquil flax]

Anyone know if there are any stone blocks or floors that look like the foundation piece? or any way to support the foundation?

[hard oak]

the island is basically a fortress

[manic igloo]

pool

[tender jay]

even more buildings!

[sacred aurora]

Behold, the ship name to top all others

[pliant bay]

We can name our ships??! 👀 (Have mercy I just got the game)

[sacred aurora]

Yep!

[fervent mist]

We sure can, i named my brig Notorious BRIG 😂

[sacred aurora]

Ok that slaps

[fervent mist]

I like "a boat" lol

When u get the frigate name it " a BIG boat" 🤪👍

And then sing your own sea shanty: i like big boats and i can not lie! 😅

Okay i will shut up now sorry got carried away 🫢

[pastel stream]

there is a shovel mod that expands the radius, tried it out yesterday and very nice, it's on cursed forge

[atomic aspen]

Can someone help me find way to fit this in perfectly?

It just wont fit at all in the hole perfectly, it always goes too far for one of the sides

[unkempt dome]

I’ve been wanting to do something like this too

[sacred aurora]

https://tenor.com/view/pickle-dill-with-it-gif-8229752

[tender jay]

i'd love to see it when you do get around to it

[pastel stream]

Q/P to turn snapping off

[pastel stream]

my pirate name is Nickle Pickle

[atomic aspen]

didnt help at all, but i figured it myself other way xd

[pastel stream]

okay yes well good you figured it out then

[atomic aspen]

Started building my port few hours ago, still need to collect much more materials tho. Is it looking good soo far?

[hazy sable]

It's amazing

[sharp walrus]

that's pretty cool, if only the game didn't put the ship in narnia everytime you summon it

[atomic aspen]

I can control where it spawn when I summon it myself with [K], other than that, yeah its pretty random and bad

[fluid pewter]

If you put the Bell at the end of the dock and ensure nothing is blocking the ship spawn, the Ship when fast traveling will always spawn facing precisely East

You can use this to make the ship always spawn along the dock perfectly when you fast travel aboard it

I use it in my base to make it always spawn in the same spot on the dock

[fluid pewter]

Is that a Windows Proot?

[hazy sable]

windows vista yeah :p

[fluid pewter]

I love it, lmao, heckin adorable

[frigid hill]

My brig name BTW.

And my ketch.

[hazy sable]

whenever anyone shares their ship names i am always enamoured by how beautiful the ship nameplates are in this game, and how the text isn't offcentered or wonky like in some other games

[tender jay]

with good lighting now

[frigid hill]

I know! Though the only other game I know that has nameplates on the ships is Sea of Thieves. Though finding the one that works there is a bit eh...

[atomic aspen]

looks like an official art lol

[tender jay]

thanks

[fluid pewter]

Only other furries would get my ship name.

[frigid hill]

I wouldn't be surprised to see that in the Steam page.

[atomic aspen]

someone got hacked lol

[flat crown]

Anybody with cool interiodeisgn to share 🙂 ? need inspiration

[frigid hill]

I may not be a furry myself but I have enough friends to know what that means... >.>

[hazy sable]

every time they add a new ship crest to their emporium the text is always either slightly wonky or the rotation on the text is far too much, i report it every time to Rare and they never fix it 😭 playing this game is such a breath of fresh air to sot

[fluid pewter]

Fantastic, lmao.
Yeens are the best

https://tenor.com/view/hyena-spin-spinning-insanity-gif-20244709

[frigid hill]

Yeah, I agree. Not to mention the building part, and the fact it's not full of sweaty players who just appear right in front of my ship when all I want is to relax after work with a couple of Merchant shipwreck missions... GAH!

[fluid pewter]

-# I was one of those heavy PvP sweats, lol.

[sharp walrus]

now time to think how can I build a stone tower so I can put the bonfire at the top of it far away of my sight and my fps

[fluid pewter]

Though I'd leave people alone that were obviously just questing or doing trade routes

[frigid hill]

I need to figure out a good house design...

[fluid pewter]

Can't go wrong with Tudor houses.

[stray kiln]

Working on my blacksmith building- need some inspiration for the "backyard" - the actual smelting area... if anyone can send me their builds or ideas @ me

[frigid hill]

Can you PM me some examples?

[hazy sable]

the game is in such a terrible state right now, thats why im so glad windrose exists because it goes to show what a pirate game could [and arguably should] be

[hazy sable]

I think to begin with there could be a nice little fence surrounding the backyard

[frigid hill]

I'll admit i haven't played for a while so I don't know how things are going there.

[fluid pewter]

I quit Sea of Thieves three years ago when Rare refused to correct the rampant cheating in Hourglass pvp, AND when the community didn't like them doing time-gated story content, so they just stopped releasing any story content and no new story tall tales.

Really glad I never went back, they just keep dropping the ball. I had played it since the beginning, have nearly all commendations and whatnot

[hazy sable]

It hasn't changed :(

[fluid pewter]

Yeah I've noticed, sadly.

[stray kiln]

id like to tear down that furnace wall thing i have and start from scratch but i might leave it up and just move+redesign it- idk yet

[hazy sable]

I'd hate to know what it's like on their backend because either they're winding things down or xbox game studios is screwing them over

[fluid pewter]

I think it's a wind down. It was only supposed to be supported for 10 years and it's been 10 years this year.

Which means Microsoft is likely coercing them to stop or work on a new project

[hazy sable]

even though im below min spec for this game and running everything on their lowest settings (at a surprisingly good FPS and i've not run into any graphical bugs) it still looks pretty as hell

[thorny fractal]

Triple Lighthouse!

[cloud lark]

I've just barely gotten my ship, but there are a lot of islands in this area. I've so many creative ideas, but I am curious.. When do y'all decide to start setting up your port/town/house? Do we get sent to our own personal little island at some point? I'm about to start setting up on one of these starting islands, but would hate to do that then find out I should have waited

[jovial girder]

just island you really like

[thorny fractal]

build a little starter thing, and save your rss for when you find the perfect island for you

[cloud lark]

Okay, so there's no "Base island" or anything we get sent to.. it's literally just pick your spot. That's all I'm really looking for. Several people were saying "My island looks similar to yours." so I just didn't want to put a bunch of time into a base only to find there's a "base island" at some point

[frigid hill]

Not ideal, but it works.

[hazy sable]

the world is your oyster

[hazy sable]

i like the look of this

[tender jay]

so the islands are randomly generated, but they follow certain set patterns. as an example, most worlds will have an island that is similar, but not the same, as this

sometimes the island in the middle is more connected to the landmass

[lofty nebula]

wait islands are random gen???

[frigid hill]

Thanks! The alcove is simple to make. 60 degrees single/small wall, two straight, another 60 degrees wall.

[agile turtle]

Port Aegis on High Council servers

[frigid hill]

Example for that:

[tender jay]

great example

[frigid hill]

I am there now anyway, so I thought I'd show it.

[tender jay]

haha that's perfect

[jovial girder]

or this, just slightly touching

[tender jay]

[tender jay]

thou shalt not leave a broski hanging

[dreamy forge]

The village market has stalls, banks, tax offices, inns, and wells

[jovial girder]

but it's amazing island, base in the middle, fort at the front and light house across on the mountain

[fluid pewter]

My version of this island has a swimming pool in the middle lol

[frigid hill]

Holy...

[fluid pewter]

That's impressive

[jovial girder]

swim tehre much ? 😄 i have a zoo

[tender jay]

stealing all of this, thanks 👀

seriously dank

[fluid pewter]

I didn't build on it because everyone does.

[tender jay]

yeah everyone does, but i like to think we all approach it slightly differently

[jovial girder]

confused HOW! ?

is there console command to let you build how ever

[fluid pewter]

A lot of placement tricks, I have a similar well funnily enough

Using no-snap mode and whatnot

Alternating between the two

[jovial girder]

i will give it a crack later

[fluid pewter]

All my Valheim building tricks are coming in to play on this game

[tender jay]

i do that for my boardwalks to make them less straight

[hazy sable]

i've never played valheim is it pretty similar

[hallow otter]

the building in this game is insane

[tender jay]

the building is almost 1-for-1

[frigid hill]

I'm sadly not the most imaginative person... But I decided I need mahogany stairs and such, which means I need rep... which means hunting.

[tender jay]

but way more blocks

[fluid pewter]

One of the best survival games on the market, highly recommend.

[hallow otter]

Valheim is also peak

[tender jay]

after i played this i can't go back to valheim building anymore

the hi-res models are too good

[fluid pewter]

I definitely still can as I love Valheim's art style.

But I also have 3k hours in it lol

[fluid pewter]

I used the same tricks to make a bar with what I have unlocked atm

[hazy sable]

I'll probably have 3000 hours in this in a few years time 😆

[fluid pewter]

Same, same. I can easily see myself putting that time in it

[hazy sable]

especialy when I get a better gaming rig hopefully at the end of this year for my birthday

[fluid pewter]

That would be dope. I built my own PC many years back and just keep upgrading it

[hazy sable]

I've been stuck on a 1050 for a while 😭

[fluid pewter]

My old card was a 1650 Super that I used for like 7 years

A PNY variant, thing was a beast

[old zinc]

I've built stables for lil captured friends but my sows and boars have despawned 🤣

[frigid hill]

Maybe we can breed them when the game comes out fully.

[strange flower]

moon big

[hazy sable]

what's your new card?

[fluid pewter]

3060Ti that I bought about 3 years ago now

Gonna last me probably another 4

[tender jay]

going for this, does it work?

[fluid pewter]

I specifically go for the best benchmark cards as they last well beyond other variants

[hazy sable]

hopefully if I'm lucky I can go for something as good as that too

[fluid pewter]

They're pretty cheap nowadays, can get a 3060Ti for like $250 iirc

I recommend the RTX one, though.

Best bench of the 3060s

I feel like that Captain person is about to post a wall of text

[Log 3 Day 8]

It was only yesterday that I made my last journal entry but something happened and I need to write it down just so that I can believe it. I actually saw another ship. It was late in the day, the sun barely above the horizon, and there it was. Sails black as night with a hull to match. I knew it was a long shot, I knew they would never see nor hear me but by the Gods did I scream as loud as I could. I waved my hands around like a madwoman and just when I thought all was lost, it turned in my direction. As a captain of a ship I would be the epitome of a sea dog if any of my crew had seen the tears streaming down my face as I felt relief wash over me, but just as it had appeared, it vanished before my very eyes. As though the sea itself opened and swallowed the ship. I swear to whoever is reading these logs that I am not insane. I am not crazy. I am not crazy… Am I? I need to stay focused if I am to continue to survive on this island but something just doesn’t feel right. At night I swear I can hear what sounds like scuttling of giant crabs and the moaning and gurgling of some creature but when I go to search for the source, there isn’t anything there. I am NOT crazy, damnit all…I miss my crew. Especially you, Thomas.

[fluid pewter]

There it is lol

[hazy sable]

I'll try and keep that in mind

[whole narwhal]

BEHOLD! MY WORK OF WONDER!

[solid hollow]

nice

[tender jay]

i hope we have ways to add ambient npcs in the future

what good is a pirate cove with no pirates?

[whole narwhal]

Workers walk around I think. and they're going to add ai crews to towns later I bet

[tender jay]

workers ain't enough for what i'm building tbh

we have like what, 4 workers?

i have an entire pirate bay to fill 🙁

[waxen magnet]

yall should be posting this on reddit or a windrose build sub
id love to save these builds

[whole narwhal]

should play enshrouded then. theres up to 20 npcs that just hang out now

[hallow otter]

yo lol its amazing you can build in Tortuga 😄

[whole narwhal]

I started a thread in media sharing! I try to stay away from reddit iykyk.

[tender jay]

i did post mine on reddit, i'm planning on updating daily

[waxen magnet]

preesh!!

wish someone makes a windrose build sub soon

[tender jay]

i don't mind seeing builds in the main sub, but then it'd get flooded lol

[whole narwhal]

oh hey! quick reminder! windrose.tools updated their database. we now have drop sources for ALL blueprints!

[zenith estuary]

[sick sage]

[Log 4 Day 10]

It's been a couple of days since I saw that ship vanish, I still can't tell if what I saw was real or not. I have been surviving off of bird meat and the occasional boar, but those beasts are dangerous and I've yet to create a strong enough weapon to kill them easily. (Note to self: Don't touch the plants that have the star shaped pistils, the blue ones. They cause a headache something fierce) I plan to venture further into the island to look for better resources, the beach has stones and sticks but I need something of higher quality if I want to make life easier, and Gods do I wish for life to get easier. I decided to stay close to shore in case of passing ships but besides the one I hope I didn't imagine, none have been seen. I will be leaving this journal in a hollowed out log in case I don't make it back, maybe someone will find this and come looking for me.

[whole narwhal]

sorry. what am I looking at?

is it the textures?

cus if it is. try rotating 180. theyre not mirrored for some reason...

[zenith estuary]

a crack in between two floors bigger than the Great California Earthquake of 1857. But somewhere I did exactly what you mentioned. I didn't know they werent mirrored. That explains alot of my builds actually

[whole narwhal]

yeah. its really annoying ESPECIALLY for walls

[analog tusk]

man this happens way 2 much for my liking...

[zenith estuary]

welp hopefully it'll be seen and rectified in the future and not just "fixed" by adding mirrored plans to future construction sets. I already really like what sets are in game

[whole narwhal]

they'd have to remap the textures. it wouldn't really be a "simple" fix...

that'd probably be like a 1.0 fix... they kinda have a lot more on their plate atm... like fixing combat and ship optimization

[zenith estuary]

oh yeah it would be pretty work intense I cant deny that. I think it would be worth it though sometime in the future

yeah youre absolutely right. There is a ton of other more important things to worry about. This is like worrying about a splinter when you have a knife wound lol

its annoying but not urgent

[shy hinge]

need this one 🙂

[old zinc]

friend

[whole narwhal]

you're my friend now. we're having crab tacos later!

[pseudo wadi]

Is there a way to get this stone foundation in a block version instead of the 2x2 foundation?

[whole narwhal]

I wish Q.Q

[dawn shell]

I move all of our Fast Travel bells into the water on a ghostly dock...

[Log 5 Day 10]

It's night now and I managed to escape the forest of this island, barely. My arm is covered in blood and I believe my wrist is broken. I can barely keep my eyes open to write this down but I have to make sure I keep my journal updated as much as possible. I found a cave deep into the island and venture inside, the crude torch I made was just bright enough to light a few feet in front of me. There was what looked like copper ore lining the walls, to my surprise, so now I must figure out how to make a sturdy pickaxe to mine enough of the stuff to possibly create some tools or cookware if I can remember how to make a forge. For now, I need to dress this wound and sleep off the terrible throbbing in my wrist. Hopefully I can keep it from getting infected, Gods forbid I get sick without any medicine. If only you were here Thomas, you always knew what to do in these situations. I'll just have to...

[rare nebula]

I have worked on an arrangement plan (ship plan) for the ketch for the past day, this is what i have at the moment:

[stray kiln]

scrolled up for 20 mins to find this

but you have inspired me to build a fort

still WIP

[nova horizon]

Littlebit more work and my base is done !!! 😄

[unkempt dome]

It’ll probably be a while I’m not really good at building

[zenith estuary]

thats a sick fort. I would not want to have to assault it

I'm at a loss for what to do with this giant hole. I find it to be pretty ugly and would love to fill it in but dont know how. What do you think ?

[whole narwhal]

stab a big ol' BEAM down there. and ring it with fencing

[tender jay]

[zenith estuary]

I'll give 'er a go thanks for the recommendation

[Log 6 Day 11]

I passed out by the fire before finishing my last journal entry, parts of the page were soaked in blood and I wasn't able to finish writing so I'm just going to continue here. I managed to stop the bleeding and I fashioned a splint to keep my wrist straight. Doing everything one handed is not as easy as one would think. I've decided to stay near my camp until I heal enough to start building the forge, maybe make a pickaxe and go back to that cave I found. The last time I broke something it took ages to heal so it seems I'll be stuck stoking a fire and eating the rations of bird meat I have stored. I did manage to find a new source of water nearby so no more having to mash and squeeze plants for water, which is a pain and even more so with only one hand. It's a small stream that flows fairly quickly, even still I was wary and made peace with everything I've gone through before taking a sip. Luckily for me I didn't get sick but I'm still going to have to use that copper to make pots to boil it, whenever I get around to making that forge. If I had my crew, or even just one more person, everything would be accomplished so much faster. I can't help but wonder every now and again about that strange ship I saw, or if anyone is struggling like me somewhere else...

[stray kiln]

yeah what the other guy said- id make the hole larger, add some beams and "fencing" with the skinny timber beams

[hazy sable]

my ship

[sick sage]

[Log 6 Cont. Day 11]

I realize I forgot to mention how I managed to break my wrist and acquire this damned wound on my arm. It may be that I was too embarrassed to say but I have to make sure I log everything I can in case someone comes across this if I happen upon misfortune. In the cave lined with copper the ground is uneven and slippery, make sure you have adequate light before venturing in else you may end up with more than broken bones. As for the wound, I ran across a particularly aggressive boar. It spun in circles and charged with a fierceness that even my first mate Thomas, who was (is?) a proud fighter, would have trouble taking down. I managed to distract it and get away but not before one of it's tusks found my shoulder. I swear by Poseidon, I will have that boars head next we cross. I decided to name them Savage Boars, creative I know, but they are distinctly different than the other boars on this island so I will categorize them as such.

[fluid pewter]

Hmm, you could try placing a central pillar that the staircase wraps around, and adjust the floor according to center the pole, then add support beams to each corner with trusses

Or put another one on the other side, and open up the floor

[zenith estuary]

I decided not to make the hole bigger but I did add some bannisters and that looks pretty nice. Added a central pillar like Dys said and I think it looks next except for the mismatching wood textures haha. Thanks everyone

[hazy sable]

i want to build a cool port town when i get more decorations but i dont know where I would start other than gathering materials and finding the perfect island

[sharp walrus]

scaffolding to build a tower is getting complicated

[stray kiln]

🫡

[hazy sable]

what hull scheme is that?? 👀

[heavy spear]

Love the build. I wanted to ask, for the right-side building with the blue windows, did you build that under/into an rock arch? I've been looking for a rocky indented cliff side to build something very similar, but haven't had any luck.

[stray kiln]

stock variant- had to buy the original paint scheme pack at tortuga for it i believe

not meta by any means but only way to use the hull color, which i prefer most- royal navy vibes

[hazy sable]

yeah that's why I was wanting it XD

I saw there's an EITC flag too, I might have to get that as well

[sharp walrus]

ok, abort the idea, apparently the bonfire radius is a sphere and not a cylinder, if I put it on top of a tower it doesn't cover my whole base

[hazy sable]

(hopefully one day we can get a full on british flag, even if it's torn to shreds because of blackbeard)

[waxen magnet]

hell yeah i think i know that spot, i've jus started building there

[hazy sable]

also may I ask what the quarters on the frigate looks like?

[keen cape]

fort wip

[lament dome]

Has anyone built in the swamp? I have yet to get in there. Might make in there tonight after Hands when I get back on.

[Log 7 Day 17]

It's been several long and boring days of resting at camp. Being unable to move my wrist is unbearably miserable and I have been spending the days staring at the ocean hoping to see anything but waves. The mysterious vanishing ship has not shown itself again and I'm still trying to figure out if it was real or just one of those things being stranded alone tends to do to someone. I've watched and learned the patterns of the birds and the boars, they are extremely predictable to the point I can set traps when I'm able and eliminate the need to chase them around. Gods what I wouldn't give for a hot bath and some rum. My wrist still has some time before I can remove the splint, though I keep testing my limits, the pain is a constant reminder of my time in the cave and the need for a better light source. I haven't written in a while because I have been doubting whether or not it's even worth keeping this journal, but I decided no matter what, I will keep track of everything until I am either rescued or Davy Jones claims my soul.

[deft compass]

hah exact spot as my base

not finished yet

[hollow matrix]

Nice great start!

[unkempt dome]

Looks amazing

[limber yew]

Anyone got any tips for building a round-ish floor/walls? Trying to build a lighthoose on the water bu I may not have all the parts I need. Cant see anything to make it round-ish. lol

[languid frost]

using walls at 15-30 degree shifts, then place floors along the base of those walls. what i've found that works quick and simple

[solid hollow]

Any tips for making perfect roofs? using all parts. Using pilars? Starting and aligning with what

[limber yew]

A, perfect! That works perfectly. Thanks!

[tender jay]

more verticality!

[solid hollow]

maybe using a little more highier in final part on top to no clip in final

[languid frost]

what I've managed to build so far

[daring mesa]

You can actually take the small boat to enemy ships and board them, but its bugged out and just spawns infinite enemies

[small jasper]

is that possible open a holes in mountain?

[tender jay]

impossible

[small jasper]

I'm trying to reach this level of creativity 🤣

[spiral lily]

Could just put wooden beams along the floor to enhance the width of the floor or you could use stone blocks/walls all the way around

[tall plover]

My base is on this exact island

[lament dome]

I was sailing near a cliff face today thinking I haven't seen anyone do it yet. thank you, this looks amazing.

[south ember]

The building video from their official youtube one?

[scarlet juniper]

Found this island in the Foothills, think i might make a city in the center island but i am not creative enough to know where to start.. 😅

[scarlet juniper]

Would be neat to expand it all the way around eventually

[lone folio]

just realized, is building high not possible?

I stacked foundations

on the right side

[hollow matrix]

ill have to check that out

[autumn moss]

Has anyone tried a rounded interior ceiling?

[south ember]

The X mark the spot island, found this one on my game too
I got an idea to build in the middlle island with wall circling on the outer one..
my lazy bum just content with thr starter island 🫡

[fluid pewter]

Yeah that island exists in every world with very slight differences

[scarlet juniper]

Same XD, was just thinking of how the center would make a nice port then the city around the outer ring. I played enshrouded with this gal and she would make some nice bases, i may have to buy her a copy of Windrose for some creative help XD

[humble lantern]

Still searchjing for a nice island

[south ember]

You should let her build and let us know the city build update later ☠️ yarr

[lapis lark]

First attempt coming from other games like valheim, return to moria, and enshrouded.

Today I learned one of the double doors can screw with your alignment by 1/2 of a block and it threw the symmetry of this off by that much lol

[lapis lark]

Doode, I have an island exactly like that one! Thats where im building. Sucks that there's no POIs on it and no iron vein

[shell turret]

Can I get rid of this island chest and skeleton? Id like to build my started base here and its killing the vibe

[fiery magnet]

Thoughts on my pirate tavern? Starting to get used to the building and having a blast!

[dawn shell]

Aligned my restaurant to face the sunrise. A little nod to the A E S T H E T I C

nope its point of interest required. Maybe build them into the basement if it will let you build over it

[marsh perch]

I have begun my second playthrough. New character. New little starter base is much cleaner now that I've learned

I found a smol island, deforested it and then reforested it with limes and bananas

well thats quite something 😂 waterproof torches

[marsh perch]

That the Conquistador armor set?

[shy briar]

Yes! the hyperarmor is fantastic

[marsh perch]

I found my build being better with the Pikeman set. I noticed that the Pikeman is of the Spanish variety too. I bet they'd look great side by side

[shy briar]

Once I get the ingots I'm upgrading my pikeman pants, the red suits the conquistador set better and no loss of bonus. Pikeman set looks really good, granted-- all of the sets are drippy

[marsh perch]

That they are. They really nailed that

Working on a tavern with my friend (not finished yet)

[lone folio]

current progress, I plan to add a lighthouse on the left side of the bridge and a square tower like castle on the right

[humble lantern]

Thats where I built my first base. free chest

[golden jasper]

Did my own version of a Chimney

[sand siren]

Work in progress british style fort

[zealous stag]

SQUINT. That is a tiny pic. :p

[sick sage]

Hey @silver pollen been writing "Journal" entries here for a captain stranded on an island, it's fine if no one reads them but it's getting lost with all the other stuff. Any suggestions? 😀

[sand siren]

i will try to post a bigger one

[pastel stream]

progress on the manse tonight

[potent nebula]

Taverns go hard!

[south swan]

I believe this is actually a spanish style fortress. But great work so far!

Stole my whole dang idea, location and everything lmfao

Castillo de San Marcos. @sand siren

[sand siren]

@south swan I actually plan to completely colonize the entire island and your right Spanish my bad been working on this with a friend of mine on our server

[pastel stream]

the Spanish built something like 1400 star forts in the islands

[sand siren]

When we found that island it was like we have to now lol

[south swan]

It was my exact though too, I was like ''damn a fortress would go so hard here.

Then make a big harbor.

[golden jasper]

Thats nice, I did mine a little different.

[golden jasper]

That is amazing!!!!!!!

[pastel stream]

ty lots of work left

[south swan]

Are you using the same door as your windows as well?

[pastel stream]

I'm actually using the windows as doors

[south swan]

I mustve not bought/found those yet. I currently have the smaller windows.

[shy briar]

need more npc's i want staff for this place 🙁

[pastel stream]

also this one

I think I bought these plans

[south swan]

Interesting look for sure, I like it. Way fancier than my current build, I'm working on a massive seaside fortress. I really wish we could get wrecked pirate ship prefabs.

[pastel stream]

I grew up in the islands so these remind me of home

[sick sage]

[Log 8 Day 18]

I didn't get any sleep last night. I don't think anyone would be able to sleep after seeing what I saw. The mysterious moaning and gurgling noises finally revealed themselves to me, and I wished it hadn't. They were grotesque, bloated, and very human-like creatures. If I had to guess, they are cursed sailors doomed by Davy Jones himself to wander the ocean. I don't know if they are dangerous but I wasn't going to get any closer to find out. I plan on studying them further tonight...

[pastel stream]

if they allow mods I will pull them from the files to make placeables, I agree

[south swan]

This would be awesome, I'd like to have some scattered by my seawall. I have a bay and I blocked one side and built a fortress wall with cannons facing the open ocean. I'd like to have a few wrecked ships around the outside waters of it.

maybe even have one pulled up by a crane and retrofitted into a bar as well or something.

🤔

[pastel stream]

yes and bigger cannons 🙂

[patent lintel]

daaaaamn! where on the map is this?!?!?!

[pastel stream]

so many ideas

[south swan]

Im building here currently actually. I have twin towers that twist down into a fortress at the base, lots of room here

[pastel stream]

Raysix is building there atm, he is not online atm but I will ping him for you @obtuse urchin

he has made a pretty cool channel into a harbor and some buildings up the cliff face

[worthy lagoon]

Loving the Buc-Seas

[golden jasper]

I need that spiral stair case!!! So many amazing builders!

[shy briar]

it's a stock staircase you can buy for gold coins from one of the factions, I am not capable of the fancy stairs

[astral bolt]

im not a good builder by any means but my take on a lil light house with wraparound dock

[marsh fractal]

got a little town started... still need to unlock some more cosmetics but the building in this game is pretty fun

[marsh fractal]

I gotta try this!

[twin bloom]

closer look

[honest saffron]

grinding for the LOOT someone has to pay for collage . got her on stage working .

[astral bolt]

how did u get to seabed?

[fluid wagon]

Hello, not really feeling inspired...

Just feeling creative. I need to progress further to unlock other styles 😰

The lighthouse is still under construction. I was short on resources and didn't have the energy to loot the island. 😅

Business to follow 🏗️

[twin bloom]

its not actually too far from shore, i just stretched out the pier foundation as far as it can go.

[astral bolt]

gotcha ty

[serene wyvern]

What a great game, just finished it yesterday. Everything done all possible upgrades done. Gj dev team and waiting for more from you 🙂 I hope for some big content delivers 🙂

[pine parcel]

I also see you are using the dueling greatsword. Good choice, love that weapon.

[astral bolt]

just found that sword lol

[marsh perch]

The Stalwart Greatsword is magnificent once you fully upgrade it and ascend it

S Tier Speed

But once I got the Soul Eater, the die was cast

[deft compass]

What are the tips on getting the ships to spawn aligned with the piers?
Is it best to spawn a ship in to see how close it spawns to shore then build the pier to align with it

Or can you just build a long pier out and hope the ship will spawn alongside it

[astral bolt]

yeah im looking for something with great crit wanna do a crit build

[astral bolt]

i think it just spawns where it wants to

[marsh perch]

Pikeman 😉

Add in the Stalwart Greatsword and Crit related jewerly

[astral bolt]

just got the razor my first weapon with crit

[marsh perch]

That's a good one

I think the Greatsword is best for Crit builds, at least in my opinion, because when you get into battle with many foes at once, you can possibly deal good crit damage to multiple at once

I combined the Greatsword and a Blunderbuss for ultimate sweeping crit damage to multiple enemies at once, if lucky

[astral bolt]

lol did u do the over pen or we

for the blunderbuss

[marsh perch]

Tbh I didn't get to use the Blunderbuss much until late game because I never discovered one until the Swamp Islands

But once I got Dragons Breath the combination was insane

[astral bolt]

dang was the first thing i got lol

[marsh perch]

Yeah this game can be pretty brutal with the loot

I technically beat the game and still didn't discover all weapons

[astral bolt]

yeah took me awhile to find a gun i could actually use early on

[marsh perch]

Luckily I was playing with a friend the entire time so we could share weapons we liked

Like he got the Rapier of a Thousand cuts right off the bat

I got a Mace from the same crate lol

[astral bolt]

oh i miss that sword lol was my fav in the demo

[marsh perch]

Just so happens I got it second island in my second playthrough here

But no firearms

I mostly used the Infantry Musket my first time through because I went Agility-Crit build

And the Infantry Musket is an Agility weapon

Feckin love the Blunderbuss though. I hope I get it sooner this time 😭

[astral bolt]

yeah i havent went into any weapon specs yet been reling on my food

[marsh perch]

Take your time with it obviously. Decide what weapons you like

Then build around it

[astral bolt]

yep

[marsh perch]

fixing to respec my tallents and try this razor out

[winged stratus]

That is really the neat part about Windrose. Endless respecs so you can try out every spec/gear combo until you get one that suits you.

[astral bolt]

yeah i like 1 handed for first boss fight but been runing gs sense

[fluid ivy]

Found a beautiful cove! Defintely time to build a pirate castle here!

[upper narwhal]

another day - another house 🙂

[flint sun]

What now? I'll tell ye what now: Guinea farming so I can buy the remaining build styles/customizations and build a proper Pirate town...

[rich bay]

build an big warehouse, realise you have way too many empty chests, start filling them. gg

[worn snow]

Im in the same boat brother.

[flint sun]

Already have a big warehouse. And a four story Inn... And a garden.

I might start gathering enough resources to have one fully kitted ship of each variant...

Or at least one of each Frigate variant.

Decided to do some fishing to restock my Seafood Platters. Ya'll should REALLY read the descriptions of each fish... HILARIOUS!

[modern chasm]

Does anyone know it there are decoration/building plans that are obtained through RNG or is it all guaranteed

[warm rapids]

Playing with coop we would always get the same recipes if they were in a chest, so I think they're guaranteed

[hasty pebble]

Same here so probably
Unless it’s a weapon or armour those are always different

[rich bay]

It all depends if new content updates make you start from scratch or are added on top

[violet dagger]

Work in progress, but I'm going for a castle on this island. Particularly proud of my 45deg turn in my wharf, and it only takes 5-10 tries recaling my ship before it fits nicely alongside!

[lost jewel]

just prepare before that happens maybe just get 1 main ship and 2 other ships that you can store with enouge rare resources🤪 you will bring all your loot with you wherever you go

[rich bay]

either way I dont mind to start survival games from scratch. I love conan exiles so I'm used to pain 😄

but our grp has their own servers for everything and we use them as save game files. so when ever we feel like playing again we start a new base and dont have to delete out old buildings

[lost jewel]

you i love it to to start over but i still have a side ship now stored with 10k plus silver armour weapons and rare supps ect so i will never lose that all whatever happens😛

i also have a servers from some 1 but still got a solo server where i only build. what never will be gone i hope😅

[old parrot]

Lovely 😮

[wheat pagoda]

THAT!...and 100% sailing the map to expose every island.

[tender jay]

why are my NPCs not appearing at my new base even after i settle them with my campfire? i go to check my old base and they're all there, and when i remove the campfire at my old base they're just gone

[violet dagger]

maybe try using the workshop you want to assign them to?

[tender jay]

i already did that

[shell turret]

my small but humble starting base

[elfin nymph]

photo dump of my base so far, its a work in progress but getting there slowly but surely

[plain arrow]

I think you can dig the sand with the shovel

[west folio]

You can

[wheat pagoda]

Will it not get covered by flooring anyway?

[winged stratus]

Can you flatten it?

or raise and then flatten

[acoustic wigeon]

The same button you use to dig also has the option to flatten it etc

[junior plover]

I think those we're for the pirates mate 😄

[kind lodge]

and still we are pirates after all, we always have to know what will happen to us. face it 😄

[quaint sorrel]

That's very thoughtful of him then

[wheat wave]

blackbeard pirates are still pirates

curious if i am the only one who goes through the ship after boarding to make sure you finish off everyone first. no quarter

he destroyed my ship and crew, i’ll return the favor to his whole fleet

[jovial girder]

I'm more of a Corsair 😄

[wheat wave]

kinda same. kinda privateerish. granted i haven’t seen any ships that weren’t other pirate ships yet. if we start seeing english and spanish ships and merchants that may change

[regal hemlock]

I don't have the chains yet 🙁
I saw another guy do something similar but with wooden stools (like blocks you kick out) but I used the ramps instead to try and do it trap door style

[marsh perch]

Pirates weren't really in the execution game. "Walk the plank" is a Hollywood myth.

[wheat wave]

we need gibbets

this is fantasy pirates, so i can see a fearsome pirate base having cages and gibbets outside

[regal hemlock]

I was so excited when I got "metal cage" and then it was a parrot cage xD

[wheat wave]

pirates also didn’t fight undead skeletons so historical realism already out lol

[quick void]

Uh I would love that

[marsh perch]

It's all fun and games until Rule, Brittania starts playing on the Bluetooth as that Man-o-War closes in

[jovial girder]

it's weird that there's no canons at the back 🤔 If they would introduce a bigger ships, would Man-o-War be withot a canons too? You could probably troll it from the back due to it's slow speed and low maneuverability

[marsh perch]

I'd love some stern chasers on the poop deck

[tropic cobalt]

His working with the spanish fleet.

[jovial girder]

I wish ship combat was more like in Sea Dogs series, with more indepth options how do you wanna destroy a ship

[unborn ermine]

my fate for raiding too many of Blackbeard's ships

[fading tendon]

Explain pirates of the Caribbean then huh

Point rejected

[violet dagger]

Don't suppose we could request that the devs include skeletons hanging from ropes as a buildable object?

[fresh kiln]

I introduce you The Rhumantique ❤️

[lone folio]

idk what I did but I think it's working, torches temporary

[jovial girder]

you're missing some canons

my first ship was called Terror, second was Leviathan and frigate Lilith

[upbeat fox]

design of a private room in my base

[lone folio]

looks like the inside of a ship, captain's quaters 🔥

[slim cape]

Can you terraform / manipulate water? As in, dig near the beach w a shovel and flood a small area?

[wheat wave]

no as the water is level everywhere. no waterfalls or rivers just flat ocean. if you dig down enough, you will just hit the same waterline as the ocean.

[thorny moss]

Still very much a work in progress. And yes I took a pic with my phone. It's what I do. 😂

[Log 9 Day 29]

I’m starting to feel unmotivated and not being able to do anything because of this damned injury has got me on edge. I haven’t felt this helpless since that time on Tortuga I…well, I’d rather not think about that. I’ve never been one to give up but being alone and having no one else to talk for this long is starting to get to me. I swear to the Gods if I ever get off this island I’ll give some gold to charity! Well, I’ll think about it, at least. Haven’t seen any more of those creatures at night. I believe they are being warded off by the bonfire I’ve been able to keep lit but it’s getting harder to do so by the day. I NEED the use of my other hand. It shouldn’t be long now, I hope…

[rich bay]

my best guess for this is actualy the Pirates of the Carribean films (bc the City of Port Royal had an Fort displayed on a mountain side in the films) or googling for images bc it was common back in the days to have some kind of fort on an higher position that was guarding the Ports

was thinking about smth like this

when you said Castle

[barren pulsar]

I admittedly use a number of the images from the old Pirates of the Caribbean Online game, the Pirates of the Caribbean video games like At World’s End or Dead Man’s Chest. AC Black Flag, and some other stuff.

Oh also sometimes Monkey Island.

[jovial girder]

if you wanna guard the port then fort has to be built at the entrance into the lagoon to block the entrance "at ehe sea level" and have better angle at the hulls

[barren pulsar]

We didn’t back in the day

[jovial girder]

moore angle 🤣 this is my WarThunder experience speaking, reflect damage

[barren pulsar]

Here’s some from my trip to South Carolina from a fort btw

[rich bay]

not exactly. the fort could also been build outside. some places just wanted to creat a safe point of retreat for the population so the pirates / attackers would have to enter the city and abandon their advantage of using their cannons

[barren pulsar]

While it is a more modern fort, I feel like you can give it a piratey motif

[rich bay]

Malta also has some sick places for this

[jovial girder]

i dont understand what you mean. You build a fort else where leaving the city open for raid?

[rich bay]

yes. external forts were designed to keep enemy heavy artillery at a distance, control surrounding infrastructure (like roads or ports), and provide a second line of defense.
forts on many islands were build after the city was already established. you dont tear down the whole city just to build the fort in front

[lofty nebula]

Basically like a massive bunker, except instead of it being under your house, it's a short jog down the road lmao

[jovial girder]

🤔 I'm confused what are you talking about.

[barren pulsar]

If they’re firing at a fort set away from the town, stray shots are less likely to hit the town

[dense crypt]

[astral bone]

Hi there, this is only begin, still lot to doo, main hall in my pirate residence

[sick sage]

[Log 10 Day 31]

I took the splint off my wrist today and I believe I can use my hand again but I have to be very careful. It probably needs more time but I don't have a choice because I've run out of food supplies and I need more wood for the fire. I'll make some traps so I don't have to hunt those birds and there are some smaller trees nearby that I have been saving. I noticed I've become a lot more lean and my clothes are starting to get loose. I suppose getting stranded here has become the ultimate diet plan, though I don't recommend it.

[jovial girder]

so where do you build it ? 😄

[rich bay]

@jovial girder

[jovial girder]

https://tenor.com/view/джона-хилл-jonah-hill-facepalm-рука-лицо-долоня-обличчя-gif-7167197686338732060

that's was exactly my point lol

but for the argument sake, this example is horrible. whole island is horrible

[rich bay]

tell that the govenour 400 years ago, not me. I didnt design that sh*** and neither did I decided it. I was probably just the poor soul who had to build the whole thing back in the days with some more other poor fellas

[jovial girder]

if you can place it at the chokepoint, that's a GG

[marsh perch]

Ironically, Fort Sumter was never actually completed. Wonder what the finished product would've looked like

[upbeat fox]

this is my garden with a staircase design

[hazy sable]

i like it

[calm tusk]

Seaside Workshop

[slim cape]

Any suggestions on how to separate this room? I built the house a little too big / too tall. So I put up 2 large walls but I still got miles to go until the roof. Do I just leave it as is - or does this look stupid?

Trying to make it a bit more lively but it looks a bit depressing up here.

Suggestions welcome..

Same applies for downstairs. Not sure if this looks good or stupid asf. 😅

[calm tusk]

You could make a loft coming from the room then fill in space with the loft over looking the space you have left

[slim cape]

I was going for a "mansion" type look but not sure if I succeeded or whiffed it. I'm not a crazy good builder / designer.

[winged stratus]

Same design as Fort Christiansværn on St Croix. Except your example might actually stand up against a battle. The other one was just a bluff according to every story I've read about it. The cannons were even just used to salute incoming ships 😄 http://www.starforts.com/christiansvaern.html

[hot path]

omg if you wall off the area with a bridge/pier you can park all the ships you want inside without chance of random enemy spawn ship attacking

[hard oak]

Cleeaaan

[hot path]

i am trying to do the same with making an inner sea in one of the starter are and is going to make that one of my main base for crafting and things

[hard oak]

Am I the only one that likes to build things we don’t have yet as a single decoration?
Show me your creations!

[tired inlet]

I like it Picasso

[winged stratus]

Pillars and beams for the roof would be a start.

[jovial girder]

Haiti fotress, any one wanna try? 😄

[slim cape]

Such as..? Just cross beams at the top of the wall across at an equal distance?

[zenith estuary]

I have something similar in my inn in progress. I put beams up there for "structural support". I left it open because I like to think the inn owner is a bit cheap and cutting costs where she can. Can't see each other sleeping? That's enough privacy for mere privateers

[slim cape]

I kinda like the high ceiling, but I don't want to build a wall of 4 large panels up to the roof as that's silly looking.

[winged stratus]

Agree with that. Keep it open. Maybe pillars in the middle as that seems to fit with the wall of the closed room and then yeah, cross beams connected to those.

[slim cape]

Working on that suggestion - that already makes it feel kinda cool. Bit church-like but I like it.

[scarlet surge]

My little work in progress, found some good inspirations online

[zenith estuary]

something like this perhaps?

[jovial girder]

tower looks sick

[scarlet surge]

Thanks man

[zenith estuary]

I really like the overhanging pieces of house. They've always tickled me quite quaint to me like some row of houses found in London in the 1500's

[scarlet surge]

Honestly I Google Fantasy Pirate Village and found a pic I liked and tried the best to recreate it. With a few tweaks of course

[zenith estuary]

of course haha 🙂

[scarlet surge]

My problem is I find another Island I like more and decide I have to build there now

[slim dirge]

a lil tavern build

[scarlet surge]

Then move everything

[zenith estuary]

I've been tempted. There are alot of great island designs I've found, but the thought of moving all of my chests just exhausts me lol. So starter island it is for me XD

[scarlet surge]

I just leave the fast travel points

Makes it manageable

Annoying still

[vagrant sparrow]

WIP

[pale whale]

nice base

[slender fjord]

[WIP] I cannot build "small"...just give me a shovel and some stone. 😄

aka "Damn, I dont know what to do with all the stone when mining copper/iron 😄

[finite falcon]

Does anyone know if there’s a way to upgrade the bonfire so the base zone is bigger? I know you can build outside the zone but I’d like to be able to have a larger zone so I don’t have to keep moving my bonfire to put down all my decorative aspects of my base

[long cypress]

Sheesh, someone building a temple I see 👀 can't wait to see the end result! :3

[jovial girder]

i wanna see what's coming

[scarlet pawn]

WIP ... Still not done with the dock but I needed storage room and crafting room

[astral bone]

Goddamn that nice base

[quasi finch]

not by default sadly, but there are some mods up that can extend the range of it

[jovial girder]

not sure it's the best surface. we have this in our old town, it's impossible to walk on 🤣

[jade fox]

Someone make the enterprise in Windrose please

[scarlet pawn]

the only option I have for now xD I know I hate them too

first phase of my base 😄 need more building plans to make it better

wow that's super nice! GJ!

i think i spend like the last 20h of playtime just building and gathering resources xD

looks like it! XD

[wispy kindle]

island also has 3 divi tree forests on it maybe a 4th even

i wanted to take some screenshots as well but its dark nightime rn and i have a bug where i am completely unable to sleep in beds

3 floors of cannons so gl invading and the anitre outside coast is high clifs so you cant get in from anywhere

[hard oak]

Should be that hard but we dont have metal sheets

Does it come with a semi automatic too?

[viscid kayak]

i cant build the same roof

what stairs do you guys use for lighthouses? feels like the standard ones are not steep enough

[graceful gorge]

id use the spiral stairs

or the 45 degree stairs if not wanting spiral

[silver crystal]

because we dont have that steep brick roofs yet

[nova oriole]

Not the best picture but I made a nice harbor

Encased the furnaces so they don't look old

How do you rotate a piece vertically? I want to fill this to the floor essentially

[mossy sierra]

You can't, it needs pillars

[quasi quail]

ah ok, wasnt sure cause the pillar didnt match the texture'

[ebon nymph]

How did you get the low angle tile roof, or is it unlockable?

[mossy sierra]

I see, you use semi-arch and made it wide

[mossy sierra]

yes but forget from where

is there a way to snap to the middle of a block?

Suggestions for Improving the Game

Hello developers,

I would like to share some suggestions that could improve the overall experience and immersion of the game:

---

🦜 Companion System (Pets)

It would be great to have a companion system with animals such as:

• Parrots
• Monkeys

Possible features:

• Stay with the player on the ship or on land
• Remain at the player’s base
• Simple interactions (perching on the shoulder, making sounds, etc.)
• Optional taming system

This would greatly enhance the pirate immersion.

---

🏝️ Islands with Cities

Adding more life to islands would make exploration much more engaging:

• Towns or villages
• Interactive NPCs
• Dynamic trading systems
• Local quests and activities

---

⚙️ Performance Optimization

Currently, the game feels quite heavy. Improvements could include:

• Better overall optimization
• More detailed graphics settings
• Improved performance on mid-range PCs

This would help expand the player base.

---

🚢 More Ship Variety

Adding more ship options would improve progression and gameplay:

• Different sizes and styles
• Specialized ships (combat, cargo, exploration)
• A clearer sense of progression between ships

---

🎨 Ship Customization

Expanding customization options would be a big plus:

• More paint styles and colors
• Custom flags and decals
• Visual modifications (sails, hull, details)

This would make players feel more connected to their ships.

---

💡 Additional Ideas

Some extra features that could further improve the game:

• Crew system (NPCs on board)
• Deeper naval combat mechanics
• Dynamic sea events (storms, ghost ships, random encounters)

---

Thank you for your work on the game, and I hope these suggestions can help make it even better.

[cosmic helm]

Making a spanish-style coastal fort town on the crescent isle with the bit of land in the center. Everyone loves this island lol

I think it makes one of the best and most defensible natural harbors on any of the islands in-game

[hazy sable]

I'm still yet to discover mine but I haven't sailed too far out yet

[cosmic helm]

It was off toward the top left corner of the map for me!

[hazy sable]

I'll take a look there

Can't wait to see how your fort turns out, it looks great so far

[cosmic helm]

Thanks! My plan is to only make the front facing wall thick and up-gunned, then build out the back with the fort's buildings, like a barracks, armory / storehouse, and a watchtower or two, then have a plastered wall separating it from the town proper with a gate. Behind the fort'll be the town proper with its own warehouse, a few homes, a tavern and whatever other buildings I come up with ^^

Unluckily for me, some damned boars have a home right in the middle of everything, so it's going to be interesting trying to build around that...

[hazy sable]

You might have to turn them into tomorrow's dinner 😆

[cosmic helm]

I already have, multiple times lmao

I've gone through like 1k stone just building the bastion wall already

[gusty pagoda]

How do you tilt the wall like that?

[sterile flame]

Base progress, still not finished but getting there ❤️ https://vimeo.com/1185963698?fl=pl&fe=sh

[gusty pagoda]

Anyone know if i can use stock variant visual on a blackbeard ship?

[cosmic helm]

Nope.

Ship hull cosmetics are locked to each specific variant of the ship.

Brethren hull colors for the Bretheren variant, stock hull colors for stock variant, etc.

[hard oak]

Made the Mine, mine.

[cosmic helm]

All mine, all the time!

[twin bloom]

there is different styles tho, and one with no purple colors in it.

[gusty pagoda]

I mean the design style, not the colours

I want 36 cannons but i also want the ship to look good.. 😅

[hard oak]

I want decorate ship

[gusty pagoda]

Defently will come, but i see there Are premade designs of the different types so was wondering if we were able to change to another of the presets

[cosmic helm]

Heard, I don't particularly like the way the Blackbeard ship variants look, particularly the figurehead. I'd love if hull decoration styles and variants were disconnected from one another.

[silver crystal]

best place to build a city https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1496866929200332923

[hard oak]

be able to choose the hull decor would be awesome,

[cosmic helm]

Damn that's amazing, I'll be using this for inspiration!

[tranquil coral]

My Second project

[sullen pilot]

I was not expecting to see you here

[hazy sable]

windrose is the only good pirate game nowadays, sot sucks 😭

[sullen pilot]

I mean, im not going to argue there. Like I said on one of your Twitter posts, I ditched SoTs event weekend for this game lmaoo

[silver crystal]

please do! And thank you

[vivid spruce]

I want your base 😍 😍

[jovial girder]

there's one wall like this that is already tilted

[acoustic flint]

starting a fortress city project just finished the first little section of the outter wall beside the watch tower any tips??

[civic tangle]

Add some decorative cannons

Maybe some smaller towers along the wall

[hazy sable]

You missed out on nothing btw

[acoustic flint]

cannons are definetly coming they will be placed by the stairs ill have a few of these and hopefully i can figure out some towers as well thanks for the advice!

[civic tangle]

Hope we can get more building styles one day

A Georgian or Louisiana style would go hard

[civic tangle]

Right now I’d be happy with the buccaneer set getting its own furniture set and having more rugs

[sullen pilot]

I'd love to see a paint brush to change the color of the plaster walls. Grind up the fauna for diffrent colors to apply to the plaster walls, get those bright reds, blues or yellows for the Spanish feel

[hazy sable]

I would love this, tortuga has some coloured plaster on the buildings so I would like that for our own buildings

[sullen pilot]

The building behind the Buccanners in Tortuga is actually where I got that idea from 🤣

[hazy sable]

we are on the same wavelength

[bright holly]

Anyone know a good way to create an 13 degree overhang on the tile set?

[sullen pilot]

Its refreshing to have devs that listen to community feedback and want our suggestions

[hazy sable]

true

[patent anchor]

Working on a tavern in a friend's server. So far it's only half a shell, but it's getting there.

[hazy sable]

looks amazing so far

[astral bolt]

looking for some ideas for a small loot room if anyones got one?

[silver crystal]

what building style you're looking for?

like spanish colonial or medieval maybe?

[astral bolt]

spanish colonial would fit my light house

[silver crystal]

this is my storage room

you can find more in https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1496866929200332923

[astral bolt]

oh nice that look great

[violet dagger]

Pub's open!

[mellow chasm]

Well.. 💩 I started building my town, but then I upgraded my ship and it doesn't fit in the harbor. 😭 Back to the drawing board!

[violet dagger]

Just need to hit the harbour at full speed and try and clear the sand banks

[sullen pilot]

This game is all I can think about while at work

[violet dagger]

Liking that framework

[sullen pilot]

Thank you! A dry dock was a must for the size of port i want 😅

[violet dagger]

Upgrade to full ship yard next 🙂

Not unlocked everything yet, are there many options for ramps apart from the default(?) one?

[sullen pilot]

Oh dont worry, this is just a starter!

[sullen pilot]

I think the wooden ones are really the only ones you get, besides the thatch ones

[astral bolt]

my light house still decorating it just my starter base wanna build a town when i find the right spot

[civic tangle]

Saaaame

Also want those domes we can see on some of the buildings too

[jovial girder]

omg, I've been doing the same thing. But I created a dry dock that looks like you can slide it down into the water after wards. I mean like with wall that goes undeer the angle

[tranquil coral]

Just a quarter of our discord island. You saw our Tavern but yeah

Working on stone paths around the island

I should jsut make a video. Our Tavern Im quite happy about probably the most. My base is still a work in progress

[acoustic flint]

I need your stone wall design for my fortress wall

[tight roost]

yeah how is ur stone slanted like that

[acoustic flint]

Spill the tea rn

[fluid pewter]

It's one of the base building pieces.

[tranquil coral]

LOL That center piece is like a chimney I built without realizing

[fluid pewter]

At the bottom of walls, it's one of the loose stone ones

[tranquil coral]

I can show How I did it

[acoustic flint]

Is it just the regular stone floor

[tranquil coral]

Also Im working on close to 100 hours in the game as well

[hazy sable]

I can't wait to see the more of this

[tranquil coral]

Yeah let me show you

[grim oyster]

Can you place a campfire, build a dock that goes out of campfire range then build another campfire on the dock to create a useable water harbor?

[sullen pilot]

I have log seating under the front of framework now, like they used them to roll it into the water

[acoustic flint]

Yeah add me and send me a dm that would make my build look epic

When I’m done decorating I’m already at 3k stone and not even a quarter done with the wall

[tranquil coral]

ALSO another angle of what ever I just built outside my base

[dry jacinth]

My first try of a windrose

[sullen pilot]

When the steam cloud issue gets resolved, ill do a walk through on my higher end PC

[echo wren]

hows this look?

[fluid pewter]

Sir that's a shuriken

[fiery roost]

You look like Edward Kenway🫡

[hexed widget]

tavern at the harbor

[tranquil coral]

Its a blueprint

[hazy sable]

i cant wait for that :)

[dry jacinth]

I hope it will be better with more blueprints

[frigid hill]

This doorway turned out better than expected.

[fluid pewter]

That is nice. I wish we had more wood wall variants, lol.

I refuse to use mahogany it just looks like a chess board

[frigid hill]

I agree. And different kinds of beams. I had to use clipping to make it like that...

[hexed widget]

The start of the fun of building an entire port

[hazy sable]

could add a chess board to your base 😆

[frigid hill]

And on the other side.

[hazy sable]

this looks like it will be part of a fancy house

[frigid hill]

😛

[frigid hill]

Someone yesterday told me to look up Tudor houses for styles and I found this floorplan I'm trying to repurpose.

[hazy sable]

the wall you're doing looks like a tudor manors internal wall so i think you're doing a great job

[hazy sable]

now to use your workers as chess pieces

[frigid hill]

Thank you. This is the front that I have so far. I'm repurposing the parlour as the crafting room.

[upper narwhal]

if my wife asks me what i have done today 😉 Added parts of an old city wall next to the 3rd building

[hazy sable]

I can't wait to see the finished result

[dry jacinth]

holy crap that´s nice🤩

[hazy sable]

this is beautiful 👀

[frigid hill]

You'll have to.

[frigid hill]

That's awesome!

[upper narwhal]

tnx

[tranquil coral]

Oh I really like that youre giving me more ideas

[upper narwhal]

^^

[jovial girder]

we will need more angles of that build 😄

[sullen pilot]

For the archway, did you free place arches to get the curve under the bridge?

[pastel stream]

when I'm done with those angles for sure 🙂

tavern next to it is what I'm working on atm

[upper narwhal]

yep

[pastel stream]

this is the plaza it the front that is also WIP and there will be a stable

[sullen pilot]

Thought so, want to do something similar for a gate. Thanks!

[upper narwhal]

np

[pastel stream]

this is other side of the plaza

[astral bone]

outstanding awesome work and look, you gave me some ideas too 😄

[upper narwhal]

thats how the community comes up with better and better looking builds over time. Watching this channel is pure gold for ideas 🙂

[quick blaze]

Some shots of my in progress foothills base

[upper narwhal]

maybe 1 more house after the wall is done - then i have to change location and do something else on an other island or reduce rendersize/quality further to keep at the current one until a new pc is done

[tight tinsel]

How many times have you crashed your ship into the dock in order to dock it like that?

[cosmic solstice]

WIP ... "The Wall" ...

[quick blaze]

Never - it's my ketch that i just leave there - I summoned it one last time to line up to the wharf, and then built the second pier alongside of it

[wild nebula]

i took the lighthouse from youtube and modified it a little

[steel ridge]

Hi! I have a "One Piece" server for now it's just me, i'm RP Jewelry Bonney from One Piece and i'm currently building her hometown church house she lived in. Any other One Piece fans in here?? 🙂

[quick blaze]

that looks awesome - right on!

[radiant hare]

how can i fill in those holes

[wild nebula]

triangles

[steel ridge]

triangle pieces

[steel ridge]

thank you! 🙂

[radiant hare]

so i cant do it so it aligns perfect?

[wild nebula]

ill link you the lighthouse video he does a round thing ill time stamp it hang on

[wild nebula]

https://youtu.be/bvVXipEMvkA?t=556

thats prob what your going to have to do and then build around it

[radiant hare]

thanks bro

[wild nebula]

mhhm3

[radiant hare]

okay ill just do it the simple way that is way too complicated for my keep to do 12 times

[wild nebula]

Now that the storm has past. here are better scrennshots

[jolly thunder]

Anyone know if this tile is available in any of the sets?

[quick blaze]

not sure but the marble floor from the sets you buy from people of tortuga has that kind of look

but its not exactly the same

[languid coyote]

barely enough Flax plants...

[gilded barn]

slowly but surely, New Tortuga is coming to life

[loud rune]

this my groups base so far

[leaden ferry]

I forget who was asking but i just found some styles of chest

random ship wreck on land

still only 28 slots tho

[muted flame]

i really need those stone handrails for the stairs... my ocd cant handle this... i need to finish this lighthouse XD

[rapid apex]

Where did you find the book for the wood roofs?

[pine compass]

The Beacons are lit! I made a tower for the beacon on our starting island for my group on our private server

[wild nebula]

They are wood ramps

[proper cedar]

Those are the ramps

[rapid apex]

Ahhh okay! Awesome thank you

[atomic hollow]

Just a port im working on, has 2 workshops, a hut for alchemy etc, campfire area and a tree house

[worldly ether]

My favorite part of this game is the building if im being honest , I love games that let me be creative and add my touch on things, I hope one day they allow dye to be incorporated into building so you can change color of things. Love checking yalls builds out too !!

[atomic hollow]

Got to love the dinner tables

I did this little trick for my treehouse

The tree goes up through the treehouse but it's mounted in a way that's environmentally friendly, protecting the tree in heavy storms 😉

[worthy lagoon]

My goodness you guys do an awesome job to highlight how freakin beautiful this game is!!! I can't wait to get home tonight to use my new building pieces I scraped some coins together to get :D :D

[echo wren]

how could i decorate this

[radiant hare]

Any ideas to make this look good

[fathom mortar]

mora details

[radiant hare]

is that a blueprint and if it is is it findable or purchase

[echo wren]

lmaoo

[worthy lagoon]

Torches on the corners going up, maybe one ever 2/3 stairs. Maybe some pillars here and there or manufactured 'ruins' off on the sides in the partial distance

[timber patrol]

<@&1354821664998817822>

[echo wren]

thats what i was thinking i want it to be like lived in ruins

[tough bluff]

Bots have been eviscerated

[worthy lagoon]

Looks real cool tho! Flags!

Needs cloth stuff at the top methinks

[echo wren]

thank you i think for the light i shoud use the table lights

[fathom mortar]

you cant make detail with a lot of thinks, detailing bildings is easy, you just have to keep adding thinks and decide if you like it

[echo wren]

it gives to the look

[radiant hare]

and a thinks is what?

[fathom mortar]

maybe split that staircase into to floors, add seme beams to them

[cold wraith]

Trading hall for my base. It's decent.

[echo wren]

LMAOO it when head hurt

[radiant hare]

Man that sh*t looks good

[bright holly]

no it's not available

[acoustic flint]

Market places around the outside

[cold wraith]

Appreciate that

[radiant hare]

looks a bit better

God I love the Frigate

[sick sage]

[Log 11 Day 32]

yesterday was rough, I barely caught anything in the traps I set up, just enough to get me by for today so I guess I’ll need to try and actually hunt. Gods I miss having other people to lean on, to talk and share ideas. Being a captain is great but with no ship and no crew, what am I? I’ve had a lot of time to think about what I’ve done and where I’ve been, the things I’ve seen and worse yet, the things I’ve done. I am a pirate after all but that doesn’t excuse me for the terrible deeds I committed and the situations I put my crew in. If I never make it off this island I just want to put it into writing that I’m sorry. I still think about…

[south swan]

Also what is everyones pirate drip

https://prnt.sc/2X2b8nDHc_Rk The Krakens Curse

[frigid hill]

Almost all the crafting stations are in this room.

Only missing the sawhorse, the cooking fire (and its upgrades), the shipwright (it's on the dock), the anvil, stove and pot, and the smelting stuff. None of those make sense to be indoors in the house.

[old zinc]

this just made my day

[frigid hill]

Fish?

[hazy sable]

bayonet? epic

[hazy sable]

damn your pirate is dripped out, what fit is that?? 👀

[frigid hill]

Yep. The Infantry Musket. It scales with agility, and the greatsword also does that so win-win IMO

[outer walrus]

may i join a server to get the crafting recipe?

[sick sage]

[Log 12 Day 35]

My wrist is fully healed, well, it's good enough to swing my makeshift spear around. I went out and hunted a few boars. I'm starting to get good at reading their movements and they're no match for me. I wonder how the population never seems to decrease, is there some kind of magic here? It's possible there are other forces at play that I couldn't imagine but the only thing I have to worry about is surviving. I plan on making a pickaxe and a better torch and going back to that cave tomorrow. Hopefully I can build a forge soon so I can utilize the copper ore I found. Let's try not to get hurt in the process. Again...

[south swan]

Trackers hat and jacket, privateer gloves, pants and boots

[dense vector]

Rate my fit?

[south swan]

conquistador actually looks really good with that hair. Good fit

[vernal willow]

10/10 i still only have the first clothing lol

[dense vector]

It''s the pikeman set mixed wiith filiibuster and the tracker hat. 🙂

[south swan]

A couple of unfinished buildings the homies and I are working on, but here's an update on my build.

[cold wraith]

The start of the new base

[fluid pewter]

I have that identical fit, 10/10.

[craggy gull]

What type of roofing should I use for the inside corner of the roof?

[fluid pewter]

I just use two more of those and phase them inside each other ngl

[cold wraith]

Have you trie this?

[fluid pewter]

That piece is a big roof piece

There's no small corner gabel

[cold wraith]

Correct, im not sure there's a better alternative*

[craggy gull]

It worked! Thanks 🙂

[cold wraith]

Anyone have any creative storage rooms that you've created? (Chest rooms) I'd like to see it, if so.

[fluid pewter]

This is mine

Storage room and kitchen

[cold wraith]

Looks great!

[rocky granite]

where is everyone building at im thinking of this place

[fluid pewter]

I chose not to build there because everyone does.

I'm building on a Foothills island, cliffside, instead

[rocky granite]

this was my main base not sure if i wanna move it lol

[jovial girder]

i copied it 😄

here's 360 of town i'm building

[rocky granite]

it goes right to a mine

[silk minnow]

storage area in progress

[torpid mason]

version 3

[south swan]

Dont be scared to add roundness to your buildings

everything here looks good, but is very square.

[torpid mason]

im not sure i know how to get round 🙁

[south swan]

super easy bro, Prses Q and set your rotation to 15 Degrees

Then place one wall straight, and then the next one set to 15. and repeat

https://prnt.sc/nnx89XZl311z

https://prnt.sc/3mnCzapkBFBg

This would make a big circle

you can play with it to make them smaller/larger

https://prnt.sc/1D9kiLDuSUFx

So you turn it like one time, and that slightly offsets the wall

keep doing that and it'll loop into a perfect circle.

[torpid mason]

that's awesome! thank you, really for the time explaining that. alright I'll be sure to add some super THICK circle towers for my guard gate 🙂

[south swan]

for sure, someone showed me so I'm just passing the info along. Happy building!

[south swan]

love the idea of the drawbridge here

[vale island]

It's still very empty right now—it's a work in progress. Thanks!

[remote lintel]

nice little central in room fireplace

[slim rose]

Everyone is so creative

[hard oak]

Open Hearth

[frigid hill]

The fact we can't put and display weapons in this is outright criminal.

There has been talks of mods, right? I'm 99% sure this will be among the first wave of them once the game comes out. XD

[devout ginkgo]

Thought about making a "fake wall" to hide furnaces behind (haven't sorted lighting yet)

[loud seal]

started construction today on our massive villa, hopefully it turns out great

[cosmic helm]

I'm slowly working out that I get the best results when I start a building focusing on one wall / facade at a time. Warehouse is coming together and looking nice as a result!

[gaunt blade]

Just finished my main base. Now I can finally play the game. Thanks to loads of other players for inspiration!

Hot damn!

[hazy sable]

i still havent found my one of this island yet

[gaunt blade]

Keep looking. Presumably atleast one of those island types should be in every seed.

I got lucky that such a straight mountain range faced directly south

[hazy sable]

i havent seen every island yet and im still not too far in the game so im sure i'll come across it soon

[gaunt blade]

I'm far along, but haven't yet beaten the 2nd boss. I found this place and immediately went building xD

[lament dome]

I hope they add palisade walls

[warm silo]

Little detailed interior work being done....

[frigid hill]

Progress:

[hazy sable]

awesome

[rocky granite]

is there a way to rotate less then 15

[quick blaze]

I've finished the main building of my foothills base

[silent ocean]

WIP

[quick blaze]

I maybe want to do something with that square tower on the right of the build

[quick blaze]

I really like the tower

[silent ocean]

Ty Tower had the top ripped off going to try and make it look like its still getting built with a crane ect

[quick blaze]

looking forwards to seeing how that works out!

[south swan]

I can't wait for like stable 12 person servers.

[lethal flare]

Pvp by factions is most likely the way they will go and you have to pick a faction, And stay w that faction. Until conquered by the other factions till 1 wins. They would have to bri g in brigs and a capture mechanism. As well as taking ships as a prize some how. We can only hope. . .

[bold hearth]

Is there a petition or suggestion box somewhere on this discord? We NEED an option to hide our UI for obvious reasons

[candid granite]

Starting to get the hang of building...

[zealous stag]

/ button (on US keyboards) can be changed in the settings menu somewhere, I think.

[leaden ferry]

Our local Tavern Inn about to serve the best Boar Meat Stew!

[cosmic helm]

Should the warehouse stay a two-floor building or should I cut it down to one? I feel like it doesn't really need the second floor, but Idunno.

[gaunt blade]

haha now you tell me xD

[fluid pewter]

I think it looks great like that tbch, even if it doesn't need it.

Also hello fellow fox. 🤝

[bold hearth]

wow, how did i miss that setting... thank you!

[zealous stag]

My second floor is all the crafting table extras, and one of each comfort item to get to 35 comfort. It's not really meant to be looked at, but it serves as a storage place for my spyglass and gilligan island furniture.

[pastel stream]

I like the two stories

[sullen pilot]

Leave the interior open and put a crane on the second floor and add some beams going out above the double doors. Then the second floor has access to storage and it add that little extra bit

[cosmic helm]

Kinda hard to see thanks to the lighting but the second floor does have a crane. You can see it poking out the top of the wooden overhang section.

[sullen pilot]

Oh, I see it now! Lol

[sullen pilot]

This is how I have my Shipwright set up with the "pulley system"

[sick shadow]

Working on a foundation for a star fort on an island i found a buried chest on by accident.

[gaunt blade]

Yeah that horse-shoe island shape is really the best.

[sick shadow]

once i saw it i knew it had to be my main base location

[gaunt blade]

I left the island alone, but built my pueblo into the cliffs north of the center island

https://discord.com/channels/1260209458924224542/1497038857143713945

if you're curious

[sick shadow]

that looks dope

[proven lotus]

My new house!

[gaunt blade]

Omg, I love the detail in this game. Post-storm rainbows!

[proven lotus]

also completed earlier in the week: a dockhouse/lighthouse

[leaden ferry]

Elegant tables was in fact the wood style i was looking for! The Tavern looks so good now

[pastel stream]

beautiful

[frigid hill]

I don't know what to add in the middle there, or in this large space I have on the second floor...

[leaden ferry]

From Left to right, Tavern Inn for Beds and food, Shipwright is the Concrete, brick is Jeweler and besides it is the voodoo potions shop.... i have started separating each crafting table into an RP style town lol

[sinful night]

you could do like a ball romm typ thing

like a fine dining or prom thing idk

[frigid hill]

Thing is, I already did a dining space on the first floor.

[sinful night]

i see well then ig i dont know

masters bedroom?

brawthel?

idk bruh there were pirates

tresaure room?

[frigid hill]

Hm. I'll write those down, sleep on it and see what I think tomorrow.

[wheat valve]

If there were bar/cage walls you could do a dungeon or a prison

That may not actually apply to this situation, lol. Nvm

[loud rune]

My group finished our basee today

last one 😄

[candid ruin]

I like the orchard idea!

[loud rune]

thank you it was hard to figure out what to do with the trees then it clicked

12000 stone 4000 wood 1500 hardwood and 250 iron ingots later its final done and our excess of resources is spent

[candid ruin]

Looks amazing

[graceful gorge]

Work in progress

[fluid pewter]

Not even a screenshot, that's live game at 0fps
jk lol great build!

[gaunt blade]

How many times did you have to go get more clay? 🤣

[dapper pilot]

How do you take the screenshots without the HUD showing up

[gaunt blade]

hit /

[graceful gorge]

we order our stuff from the traders but alot of coin was spent on clay xD

[gaunt blade]

Yeah I did too. Built my fort solo hehe

[dapper pilot]

Sweet thanks I'll do that tomorrow. Keep trying to get a good photo of my Gulf village

[zealous stag]

"f" when you're steering the boat to zoom out, then / to hide the UI, lets you have very wide shots of your base. (Yes, that's my old Demo base.)
