This should be helpful

[stiff lava]

My hive mind has lost track of the hive a long time ago, now I am just buzzing along to my own tune🤣

[olive bluff]

love the pic. I'd suggest a bit more pillars for suport

[idle timber]

the garden is slowly coming along

[stiff lava]

This is very helpful, thank you so much!

[silent heron]

there is already too much pillars 😄

[stiff lava]

Never enough pillars😂

[idle timber]

Still got here and then i Need to redo the entire farmers market area.. and more detailing to the Manor. to match the lighthouse.

[spark bloom]

Set Filters to Most Relevant and Photos

[idle timber]

The lighthouse atm

[stiff lava]

That is good advice😋 thank you so much for the help, will try to plan it out better next time I get a chance to play

[stiff lava]

That lighthouse means business

[idle timber]

The forge house I finished decoring finally

[stiff lava]

I definitely think I do not have all the decor plans for the game

[idle timber]

even hanging swords from chains from ceiling

[stiff lava]

Looks like a proper blacksmithing building!

[hard oak]

Nobody does

[idle timber]

and they have No smoke without the need of a mod bc the way we built them and added the chimneys on top and it works great

[stiff lava]

Think you might be right😂

[olive bluff]

my lil shanty town

🦾

[stiff lava]

Those stairs are going up to heaven it looks like😂 love the shanty town though, looks cozy

[silent heron]

This is gorgeus... I Am struggling with roofing. You have some amazing houses cus roofs line up pefect. I dont really understand roofing in WR

[spark bloom]

God I hate interior decorating

[stiff lava]

Even got a little pottery section😍

[deft shadow]

Ive built 90% of my structures leaving the interior entirely empty xD

[hard oak]

Na u don’t. U just haven’t learned yet.

[deft shadow]

need to find the motivation to do it

[olive bluff]

you have to get creatiive™ and sometimes use free placement quite a bit. (not tryna sound smug or anything here btw)

[idle timber]

Finished the Grand Staircase as well

[spark bloom]

Like, I just made a tavern and am driving myself insane decorating it

[olive bluff]

luckily piece overlapping restrictions are near non existent which helps

[stiff lava]

Yeah the snapping function can be a little wonky at times, I have to use free placement like 95% of the time

[silent heron]

Ill try to replicate this, i love the design:

[stiff lava]

How did you get that pattern? What did you use for it?

[blazing marlin]

seems like nothing changed

[idle timber]

The fine Dining area is done as well and the bar and grill.

[silent heron]

Criss crossed mahogany railings

[spark bloom]

The trick to good roofs is unironically, the floor

[stiff lava]

Damn, your interior design is crazy good

[silent heron]

??

[hard oak]

Thank you for the response 🙏

[stiff lava]

Ooooh, thank you!😋

[idle timber]

Bar and grill

[olive bluff]

Be advised that furnaces and kilns for some mistifisical reason hate roofs

[stiff lava]

Alright, I need to be an adult for today, thank you all for the advice and ideas! Have an awesome day!

[silent heron]

they have to be open air yeah

[hard oak]

Whats that for

[spark bloom]

Basically, the floor plan measurements need to line up so that when you build your walls, and inevitably get you the roof... It lines up

[idle timber]

also bc of you @hard oak I changed my kitchen up and my sink

[hard oak]

What have I done now 😆
Love the shelves

[olive bluff]

I hate that. you could just have a way to divert the smoke if that is a concern

[silent heron]

So roofing is antagonistic to freefrom floors 🙁

[sweet breach]

Villa with side towers on small mountains incomming 🛖

[idle timber]

u pointed out where was my shelfs last time i posted the kitchen / sink so i fixed that lol

[spark bloom]

Basically, if the proportions are wrong... You'll get off angle roofs or everything won't line up

[hard oak]

Is looking good 🙂

[spark bloom]

L-Shaped Buildings are really easy to make look good

[idle timber]

this is coming out the bar/ grill

need more crab shells...

god they a pain to get

New storage Idea i was toying with.. IDK if i like it or not yet..

[tropic quartz]

Im still kinda newish to the game building wise but it’s a start! I thought I was smooth having the pier lead to a copper mine but i rarely need copper anymore it seems like lool. Prolly gonna have to pack up and move again.

I can’t wait to see what other awesome building stuff comes out later on.

[idle timber]

u dont have to move u can use teleports around the map

[tropic quartz]

Yea true. I haven’t been building for long. I have literally everything in just this one spot.

[fervent mist]

Nice, whats up the rock tho? 👀

I'm looking for the structure of a Mill in "Creative" but I can't find it anymore

[fervent mist]

Duh question, did u search for "mill" in the channel?

[thorn karma]

yes

[warped sandal]

Hope we get more smoke type things in smaller size, making a chimney using the kitchen is kinda meh

[fervent mist]

U can use the fireplace top

[frail latch]

Could use a bit more light, though.

[fervent mist]

And cover it with whatever siding u want

[idle timber]

yeah new area i was designing

[warped sandal]

Ohh i havent unlocked that yet
Heres what it looks like

[fervent mist]

Yeah seen it above, nice build

[scenic frost]

has anyone figured out a good way to make cages? i want to add a dungeon to my coastal fort

[hard oak]

lots of beams

[hard oak]

lovely, can I use as example on the building discord?

[strange thunder]

Do you think it's better like this or is the first option without light better?

[hard oak]

I am pretty traditionalist, so i would go without

[hard oak]

Id use a standing lantern instead.. perhaps by the well

That also works well

[tropic quartz]

Hey that's tiiiiight! 💯

[strange thunder]

This is my personal bedroom

[tropic quartz]

dam that's awesome. u can't ask for much more coziness in the 1700s tbh loool.

[scenic portal]

Cages (particularly freestanding ones) are a bit tricky right now, though I find stone railings a decent substitute for bars; (see picture 1). The difficulty is in topping them off, they stack well but floors sit oddly on top of them; I suggest working them into existing structures to create cells rather than a cage. If you do make free standing, the small stone foundations give the tightest fit for the roof. In the second picture, you'll notice that I've worked them into the wall add other objects to give the impression of them being bars rather than railings; the same in figure three, but note that I had to turn off snapping in order to make the railings 'behave' themselves and get into the positions I wanted.

For a dungeon, I would make three walls of traditional stone building pieces, with stone foundations for the ceiling, and the fourth wall being made up of the railings and a door of your choosing; hope this helps. Hopefully they'll add proper metal bars in the future, but we'll have to make do for now.

[strange thunder]

Your option is very interesting and beautiful!! How about this one? It's just an idea, maybe it will be useful for you. Wooden beams might also be a good option here.

Sorry if what I write is a little unclear, I'm using a translator.

[strange thunder]

or here's another option

[tropic quartz]

I didn't even think about building jails and cages.

I skipped taking prisoners and going straight to the end of the line for mutineers ✌️ 😭

[fast junco]

how is this lookking so far for a structure?

[tropic quartz]

That's awesome! Is that the limestone for the exterior? I haven't used it on anything yet.

[fast junco]

first floor is limestone second floor is plaster

[tropic quartz]

This is a simple but clean trade house I built by my pier. I have it looking kind of intentionally messy on the side close to the pier like it's an actual loading bay with work going on.

Building a bridge big enough for a Frig to cross under

-# My ship is next to the first tower, it is a Ketch.

[fervent mist]

Thats gonna be a BIG bridge haha

[gray radish]

I'v been on this game 2 weeks lmao, I don't know how big a Frig is, I've not seen one

[formal pasture]

I've got 5 spare bedrooms in the mansion! Come on down to the Carribean! lol

[fervent mist]

Oh its a beefy boy 🫢🫢

[formal pasture]

Look at the second picture I just posted, on the left side you can see the difference in all three ship sizes

[gray radish]

This is what I have done so far

[gray radish]

Alright...It isn't as bad as I was visioning, I thought it was going to be as tall as 2 Ketchs stacked. Thats maybe one and a half Ketchs

[gray radish]

I am guessing the front one is the Frig?

[formal pasture]

theres a better picture, look for the Jolly rodgers flag on each one, thats the highest of each

but yeah its about a half

[gray radish]

-# This is going to be a big bridge.

I am going to have to level a whole island to build this

[formal pasture]

You may run into a height restriction unless you raise the ground up as high as you can go underneath where youre structures are

[gray radish]

As you can see, it is also my biggest project

[formal pasture]

then build ontop of that

[formal pasture]

definitely a project thats for sure

[gray radish]

Is the height from sea level?

[formal pasture]

not from what I've seen. and dont quote me on anything I haven't actually encountered a height restriction myself I've just seen people talk about it

I've seen people build really high up in the air in the fotthills but they start building at like the highest point of the mountaints

[gray radish]

Hopefully it is very high up

[formal pasture]

I think it has more to do with supports. You can only build something so high straight up before it can't support itself anymore. you may have to do a big base and get smaller the higher you go? Idk I need to mess around with it more

[gray radish]

Okay so it isnt a strict height limit ceiling, its based on support.

Yeah lol I was typing that, I just searched it

[formal pasture]

oh okay cool well theres our answer!

at least you know you'll be able to do it as long as you do it right

[shell turret]

please dont laugh at me but I had to come up with something for a bigger crane for the big docks thats supposed to be for bigger than brigg ships

I might adjust the hook height tho because I am not quite happy with it yet

[shell turret]

I prolly will either put it higher or lower I have to mess around with it

[olive bluff]

that looks great. though afaik ships used to pull their cargo aboard themselves by attaching a boom to the mast

[shell turret]

I didnt know this

[olive bluff]

cranes only became a thing due to ISO containers if my knowledge is correct

[shell turret]

I will keep it anyways cause it helps to make the docks feel more alive

otherwise it would be too empty

this crane can prove perhaps still useful

[olive bluff]

i get you and its not a dig. i really do like it it was just a fun tidbit of information i wanted to pass on

[shell turret]

nah I get that and respect that cause you teached me something new today

[olive fulcrum]

Laugh? That looks great!

[shell turret]

I appreciate that fr

[olive fulcrum]

Cranes and cargo hoists were used. A ship would use it's yard arms as cranes with a block and tackle / pulley system rigged to them to lower cargo in and out of the hold. Makes sense that there would be dock side cranes for the same thing, too.

[olive bluff]

interesting. though i'd've thought that a crane would be more inconvenienced by the rigging than using a diagonal pole to lower things over the side that would anchor to the mast

[shell turret]

yall teached me so much today, I appreciate that actually

[olive bluff]

id've showed you how I done my harbour but im on the other side of the map rn building a regional fort for when i ned to be out of base for extended periods of time

generally piles of craters strewn about is a good go to for harbour deco

[native kite]

This is mine 😅

[strange python]

Here's the current situation. I put a bed in my workshop so I can take a nap without going up the hill to the tavern. I positioned the bed behind one of the main beams so the torches aren't shining directly in my eyes. So here I am, trying to take a nap while Rosalinda is over there sharpening wooden stakes for hunting vampires or something. If that wasn't bad enough, Doctor Galen and that weirdo John are just standing there watching me. You just can't get good help these days!!

thats a really cool one and far more realistic than mine. I did some research as I was looking for old cranes and even stumbled across this sort of crane. What you got there is some sort of rheincrane very popular for rivers too

[hard oak]

I adjusted the hook height. I am happy with this for now. Time to add some barrels and so around it

[blazing marlin]

I could bet someone posted here a screenshot of a crane built using a decorative chain instead of wooden logs, but I can’t find it now. It would be great if we could really use one, but it seems we can’t, or am I missing something?

[sacred mortar]

Right now all you really can do is build one as decoration. Working cranes are yet to be determined (or modded)

[blazing marlin]

Oh, I know it’s only a decor. It would look so much better if we could use a chain though.

[sacred mortar]

Yep.. and yes, there are some who use the chain for the linkage part, but if you're going with the platform, most people build up with the branches to imitate rope.

[formal pasture]

I mean fire in the drapes or fire in the sheets, its gonna be one or the other!

let me check it out

oh nah, way too bright

[hot kettle]

hey guys do you think it would be possible for the devs to implament custom rope ? theres some games out there where you can deploy flexable cables and you can manipulate the way they lie i thought it might be cool for decoration reasons if we could do the same with rope

[frosty kraken]

You can submit a suggestion in the support page

[simple lagoon]

https://windrose.support/ideas - I'd love to see what you're describing, if for no reason other than decoration

[hot kettle]

ill see if i can find videos of other games to show on that thanks for the link

Yesss finally finished furnishing the first floor. Which was the biggest part of the project. furnishing the second floor is mostly just bedrooms. and those are decently easy. Although there is a secret room up there I'm not sure what to do with

[sinful socket]

From what I can tell maybe an hour?

Same amount of time it takes for a death barrel to despawn

[hard oak]

Lmao welp

[raw tangle]

Hmm I’ve had my treasury building with items all day and still there?

How do I get a dev to answer this question haha, need answers

[merry herald]

Okay, this is AWESOME.

[next depot]

thank you @merry herald much appreciated.

[safe swan]

Hi
Enter this in Google:
windrose do items despawn?
Sorry was eating and i dont wanna clog up the chat with that info 😉

[hazy oyster]

any tips on how to improve the building? i think the roof is bad bt i dont see any 45degree roof besides the green leaf one.

[fair copper]

I would say it looks very good 🤔 personally I would add beams on the sides of the windows as well as if they are supported by beams

[hazy oyster]

do you think so? i kinda dislike the pointy thing but had no other fix lol

[hazy oyster]

beam side of window where exactly :D?!

[ruby tree]

If you make your whole roof out of wooden beams, you can fill it all in pretty clean like that

[hazy oyster]

hmmm

[ruby tree]

Like I did on my roof here: #🎨│creative message

You can even angle them to fill in that part sticking out

a little more resource-expensive on wood, but itll look good

[hazy oyster]

ahh interesting nice idea, i do like the straw one so this is not for me. but great idea!

maybe a mix of it

[ruby tree]

Oh you can use the straw style beams

they look great too

I did a rooftop with them too, but I dont have any pics of it

[hazy oyster]

im trying this now, 2 angles!

maybe itll look nice 🙂

added the beams :)!

[hazy field]

use ramps in the stairs section, they have 45 degree.

[hazy oyster]

ye that Bish ugly LOL

[fair copper]

less sharp angles I would say and maybe start with the sharp ones early..and give the roof a overhang on the front as well

[wraith hamlet]

looks like a witch hut

[hazy oyster]

https://giphy.com/gifs/film-disney-once-upon-a-time-uElxuHGtIuK0o

a bit better with ovrhang indeed, changed the wood too (left old right new)

[hazy oyster]

what did you mean by start with sharp early btw? 🙂

[fair copper]

you got 3 small angle ones and then 2 sharp angle roofs, maybe switch it around, 1 - 2 small angle roofs followed by sharp angle

[hazy oyster]

lol im still not underrstanding 🙁 sorry. (im not english also)...you mean start with this instead of the 64* roof?

[fair copper]

more like that, and maybe a less sharp angle for the top part of the roof

[hazy oyster]

ahh like this

oh not like this XD

[hazy oyster]

okay so like 26*(overhang part) > 60*(middle-steep) > 24* (top)

[fair copper]

that would also be a possiblitiy yes

[cloud notch]

finally finished with the skull base. now what do i build inside of it?

[hazy oyster]

still went with it and I kinda do like it 😄

[hazy oyster]

duh: more skulls! :p

[cloud notch]

skullception

[dreamy forge]

The build of Old Town with the shipwreck is almost over.
Now we're building Old Castle and the walls

[real orbit]

Some skull WIP from us as well :3

in daylight

[coral mist]

Are there actual shipwreck pieces you can build with or are you using wrecks from the map? These look awesome!

Oh wait I now see you made them by hand with individual pieces :o

Does anyone know how to make rope bridges? Or at least something that looks similar?

[next depot]

Well done, really nice, you got the atmosphere down to a T

[next depot]

Extraordinary, really well done.

[real orbit]

Thank you!

[gilded frost]

IDK howtf y'all do this sht it absolutely amazes me! ❤️

[hot path]

tall tower in the making

full height, seems like this is the best way to go high without mods

maybe i should cover the outside up with deco idk yet

[hard oak]

Yes

[mystic grove]

Village complete. Market, crafting area, manor, church, watch tower

[hard oak]

Do not have the video on how to make the bridge done yet.. but with enough ppl interested i could

My bridge /\

[olive fulcrum]

You need cross beams. This isn't bad though

[olive fulcrum]

@hazy oyster Add some horizontal cross beams and it will improve your build. What I do is I make the frame first and plan out my load bearing timbers. Then add walls and build rooms.

[hard oak]

I love that we can add beams after

[soft lily]

Ah... if only this still worked (((

[olive fulcrum]

Agreed. The timber building system is excellent

[umbral juniper]

hope they gonna do that 😄

[olive fulcrum]

I love the Church

[olive fulcrum]

This is my fav build i've seen so far

[hard oak]

until u see the other one (their)

and until u walk on them

xD

[olive fulcrum]

I do enjoy seeing what people make

[brazen canyon]

moved to another island n take a break of my fps murdering build

this the outer wall to it so far

[proper crow]

Tavern with this style... Rosalinda is a regular 🍺

[hard oak]

that witch drinks?

[proper crow]

All me stock!

[blazing marlin]

Kitchen remodeling - new cooking fireplace 🙂

[hard oak]

🌿

[zealous stag]

Can do 45 degree leaf roof, then slap wood plank ramps over it, I guess.

[hard oak]

where?

[zealous stag]

"Stairs and Fences" oddly enough. called Ramp (Planks)
But they let light through them, so you'll want a base roof under them.

[upper narwhal]

or a 2nd row of ramps

2 more houses to fill the island ... and still so much space 🙂

[formal pasture]

That is gorgeous! I applaud your process

[olive fulcrum]

Thanks, the Tavern is done. Just needs furnishing. I need better beds. have everything else I need

[olive fulcrum]

Love it! I'd book a room there

[olive fulcrum]

Governors mansion?

[brazen canyon]

aye my interpretation of it at least

its build on the well loved donut island

[olive fulcrum]

Nailed it

[olive fulcrum]

Awesome!

[formal pasture]

Is this working? I like it but I dont like it

[upper narwhal]

tnx

[brazen canyon]

is the start of the inside of it

[upper narwhal]

my system would die with so many lights

[brazen canyon]

does it work? yes

would my pc love it HEEEELLL no

how many fps next to that beacon of light XD

[olive fulcrum]

Looks great but what's with the light box?

[upper narwhal]

i waited 1+ years for a case (msi meg 900r) and again it was postphoned... now i am done with waiting for msi and finally ordered all components yesterday

[formal pasture]

hahaha funnily enough If im right next to it not looking at it. Im at like 25 fps lol but if i stare into the fire soul it goes up to 40 lmao

[upper narwhal]

so in 3-4 days i should finally be able to play with ok frames 🙂

[brazen canyon]

whut HOW

XD

[formal pasture]

I guess cuase im looking straight down and the game isnt trying to load things inside the house

[formal pasture]

I want something like a fire pit on the back patio. this seems excessive tho lol

[olive fulcrum]

Put a beacon in there?

Note to devs. Purely cosmetic bonfires please

[formal pasture]

The BEACON!

[formal pasture]

https://tenor.com/view/theoden-muster-the-rohirrim-lotr-bernard-hill-gif-9881400

It might burn the house down, I'll have to see if it isnt so wild when there isnt a storm raging

[olive fulcrum]

Looks great though

[upper narwhal]

tried to dig in 2 -4 large furnaces?

[olive fulcrum]

Another idea for you

[formal pasture]

That's the one

[upper narwhal]

they are walkable ... cant find the pic i did a while ago with 6+ of them in a row

[olive fulcrum]

removed the front wall for you to see what I made it out of

Need to do some snap-off part merging but it makes a nice fire pit

[formal pasture]

soons as i saw the logs I knew. I forgot you can place the fireplaces as individual segments

[olive fulcrum]

🫡

Glad I could help.

[formal pasture]

Always appreciated!

[olive fulcrum]

Far too much smoke for a fire pit

[formal pasture]

that was my problem with the beacon

this.. this is something else

I wont go there tho

[olive fulcrum]

Did you get something nice sorted with the fireplace?

[olive fulcrum]

at least he tried to help

[formal pasture]

oh yeah i didn't mean it like that. I was making a poor taste joke at first and decided to let it go. not at his expense tho

[olive fulcrum]

Aye, I wasn''t implying anything. I was just giving credit where credit is due.

Appreciate you @upper narwhal

[upper narwhal]

i am 56 .. playing since pong and online since ultima online ... seen worse. I hate it that no critique can be done on anything without a meltdown of a handful of snow

[chilly dune]

😁😁😁

[formal pasture]

That I did! Thanks for the help my friend!

[olive fulcrum]

Agree with you but no one had a melt down.

[olive fulcrum]

Looks great and you're very welcome

[upper narwhal]

nope .. just a global trend 🙂

[olive fulcrum]

Aye, we're in agreement on that

[upper narwhal]

maybe add some logs/beams or try the firewood rack sunk in ?

hobbit hole try 2 .. a bit larger this time

[olive fulcrum]

This is awesome

[sturdy dawn]

Hello ! i have build my own Castle !!

[ruby tree]

"In a hole in the ground there lived a hobbit. Not a nasty, dirty, wet hole, filled with the end of worms and an oozy smell, nor yet a dry, bare, sandy hole with nothing to sit down on or eat: it was a hobbit-hole, and that means comfort."

[upper narwhal]

upper area wip 😉

[hard oak]

wheres roof

[upper narwhal]

is still growing and no rooftiles to cover the soil

they go up there

not the question is .. build with them or cover them 🙂

[hard oak]

not what I awnted to see 😛

[formal pasture]

that skylight is cool!

[upper narwhal]

last time i did those first .. this time i cover the roof after i i mess arround with the inside

[hard oak]

maybe only bushes?

[brazen canyon]

Build with them

[formal pasture]

I dont know if this matters to you like it does me, but you can get rid of the unsightly plaster in between the wood parts of those singular wood walls by placing a mahagony beam in them horizontal and vertical in the corners, like this

[upper narwhal]

thats the first one .. still exists and i moved the street arround it

[hard oak]

Yeah I forgot about the dumb design choice where we get seedbeds where certain "plantables" can't be placed

[upper narwhal]

yep that works fine - and not only on them on the wall planks too

with other beams also

[hard oak]

otherwise bushes would probably do

[upper narwhal]

bushes are a problem 🙂 arround ok .. up there no

trees plant - put roof over them - let them stick out .. works

[hard oak]

ye, dumb design choice

[upper narwhal]

and plant after does not work 🙂

[upper narwhal]

there is my waggon 🙂

looks nice

[hard oak]

his wagon

xd

[shrewd glen]

my wagon

[upper narwhal]

all fine 🙂

i think mine does still exist .. just did not finish as i discovered i would need another buildup to make it look like it could change direction

its sitting on one log at the front between the frontwheels

[shrewd glen]

yeah I have a small wooden pillar hidden behind the storage sack.

I used a bench, and it actually works so you can sit on the wagon like you're driving it.

[upper narwhal]

actually was thinking about doing this one i made in the demo with propper material now

very limited options in the demo

[upper narwhal]

sitable is a nice idea .. now we need horses ^^

[hard oak]

the amount of swearing 😂

but it looks so good

[upper narwhal]

have 15 of those on my castle .. i know your pain

not those .. that whas the horse/mule try with my wife

[hard oak]

much swearing

[upper narwhal]

placed some stones down at the floor?

[hard oak]

most of whatever I am doing

is layout

[upper narwhal]

^^

[hard oak]

brain is not really braining

too burned out

[upper narwhal]

i did 4 videos how to do those damaged walls .. and all went totally sheite ..

as you said swearing 🙂

[olive fulcrum]

Impressive effect

[upper narwhal]

my trywall for mix and match and blends

and some of them "live"

still wanted to mess arround with the large one a bit more "later"

[hard oak]

I got a diff one going on, at the witch hut

same concept

[misty kestrel]

The Kraken tile floor

[hard oak]

i see ???????

xd

[hard oak]

i really llike this one

[upper narwhal]

fastest way i found was remove a large tile - place 2 inclined up that pinch in and 2 down .. then freestyle cover up the edge

yep that cool

[upper narwhal]

yep .. this one on the testwall i try things on

fun!

[hard oak]

if do stuff like this aint proof of resilience, idk what is

[upper narwhal]

would call it playing and having fun 🙂

but i grew up when there was not "grinding" - all was called playing no matter how "tedious" it was

[tough hull]

ooo I've been doin this too

[hard oak]

i call it suffering

silently

[upper narwhal]

^^

[formal pasture]

aye porch all done! hella good early morning vibes out here

[upper narwhal]

if i dont use the wall i end up with "things" all over the island

[tough hull]

I think i've got a few pictures somewhere of my "sea wall" though I love the idea of putting these in on higher facades

[formal pasture]

nothing to hang up but I got a Coat closet nonetheless

[torn spade]

hang a trophy in there! 😉

[hard oak]

but have u tried to make it into a toilett

has the perfect size from what i see

[upper narwhal]

^^

[formal pasture]

Oh I got toilets

[upper narwhal]

i have tried to throw armorpieses into cupboards etc. and they never land ... rarely a bandana or glove - but nothing else

[formal pasture]

that just end up looking sloppy to me, I cant stand the sparkles that come off stuff that you can pick up

[devout lagoon]

what yall think about this garden and set up?

not the greatest pic but

[formal pasture]

Heck yeah! I gotta get my garden setup. all the pretty colors

[devout lagoon]

thank you i like to garden irl too just wish i had that lol. I wanted to do a cool garden so looking for inspiration

[upper narwhal]

at least the items stay there .. no clue about online - but solo offline the armor and weapons seem not to vanish

[formal pasture]

I like the way you made it work. it doesn't look sloppy at all. you mustve gotten the perfect toss on that helmet lol

[upper narwhal]

i made like 500 tosses 🙂

[formal pasture]

the ones that annoy me the most are when they fly out behind you and your like what the hell whered it go!

[upper narwhal]

10 items .. throw all .. collect all that did not hit ... and sometimes pick one up that was perfectly placed by accident 🙂

or behind the cupboard if there is room like in my chamber there

[formal pasture]

i bought 10 cases of feathers once and didnt realize my inventory was full. sat there at the merchant opening them all and every single one of them went behind all the decorative storage containers i set up around the merchant. had to tear em all down just to get to them

[upper narwhal]

^^

[ruby tree]

awww haha this is great I like it

[hard oak]

gnight 😄

[ruby tree]

Its like a higher end Flintstones car 🙂

I just whipped up a crane and water wheel for Rivertown

[coarse jackal]

Tried to make my lighthouse look decent

[pine wadi]

lil residential area wip 🙂

[silent heron]

Brilliant as always

[pine wadi]

thank youuu 🙂 still got a lot i wanna add over here just still figurin it out haha

[olive fulcrum]

This is awesome

[olive fulcrum]

Very cool, not seen a water wheel yet

[olive fulcrum]

Nice, reminds me of the sea of thieves islands that have multiple levels and walk ways

[olive fulcrum]

Succeeded

[pine wadi]

ive not played that but ima need to if it has inspo !

[olive fulcrum]

Rich bugger. My tavern just has chamber pots

[olive fulcrum]

Look up sea of thieves outposts on google images. You'll see what I mean

[ruby tree]

Thanks! Ive seen a few. @worthy wigeon built a pretty epic one and posted here: #1503379894824861806 message

[olive fulcrum]

Awesome, thanks for the link

[remote verge]

canadian style house !!!

[coral sinew]

I see no moose

[arctic epoch]

round lighthouse

different view

[cold delta]

Update to my villa ! Added a shipyard for my retired ship ⚓

[brazen canyon]

Beautiful build ya got there again

[pine wadi]

thank youuu ^-^ still a long way to go xD

[brazen canyon]

As always well never be done building haha but in any case ill be studying that to see if theres any interesting build techniques i can use on my mega project castle town xD

[pine wadi]

haha true! since its a new district getting the layout to work took me a bit of trial and error, still trialing and erroring now tbh xD

[brazen canyon]

One thing your builds have thought me so far is not to gentrify planters with a single plant type

[pine wadi]

oooh glad somethign helped! ya the only ones i do like solid of 1 type is the place i have my main gardens for mats, the rest i dont think too hard and just plant lol

[brazen canyon]

It looks fabulous tht for sure

[pine wadi]

thank yewww 😄

[dusk basin]

My little build so far (WIP)

[sage stirrup]

It's a work in progress

[olive fulcrum]

Beautiful

[valid cypress]

I'm planning to build a sailboat in Wind Rose just like the one I built in Minecraft, but there are too few available parts and colors.

[zealous stag]

Yeah, color is rough enough, but you'll also hit structural limitations at those heights / distance away from the central support masts.

[neon shale]

How are people building such extravagant and massive bases with the fire pit range being so small? Move it around?

[ruby tree]

yes

Also, most building structures dont need to be in a bonfire range, mostly just deco stuff and the advanced crafting stuff

[zealous stag]

Some people're also using mods. There's a bonfire mod to make the radius three times bigger, and a structural mod to remove or lessen the need for support.
I haven't seen anyone using stuff that isn't in the vanilla game yet, but I assume there's probably one or two things from the ashlands files that could be built right now.
Edit: A few people in Valheim get REAL SNIPPY when people use modded items to make their homes look more homely. Or to rotate standard items.

[ruby tree]

The mods and devs asked people not to post content that hasnt been officially released yet, and they delete it if any is shared.

lol yeah I understand the snippiness. XD
Its hard to make your own vanilla creations look good when people use mods to outshine things. I like the game to stay vanilla too - I hope mods dont become big for WR like they did for Ark

[olive fulcrum]

Small timber beams make your docks look nicer

For comparison.

Not sure if anyone discovered this before me. I just did ingame and wanted to share.

[olive fulcrum]

I'd suggest a seperate channel for modded builds and one for vanilla.

[round wagon]

Had to get rid of my magical flower bed because it was not functional but dang it it was cute

[olive fulcrum]

Saying people can't mod the game to their liking and share their creations is a bit harsh. People should be able to do what they want and enjoy the game their way. Though seperating the channel gives vanilla builders a bit more distinction as they're working with what they have.

[olive fulcrum]

A great loss 🙁

[zealous stag]

Yeah, but the Valheim ones were getting silly on Reddit.
Look what I did! (217 mods) faithful one to one recreation of Hogwarts, including spatial folds.
Or building/blueprint mods where they'd do the whole thing outside of the game for atomic level precision, and laying down thousands of offset things to make giant towers, then just hitting 'print' in the game... It got really silly.

[olive fulcrum]

"faithful one to one recreation of Hogwarts, including spatial folds." That is actually bad A though. If they state they used mods, what is the issue?

As for the building outside the game and hitting "print". Again, if they state their process, what's wrong with that?

It still takes a level of intellect, time and planning to make a good build, no matter the process.

[ruby tree]

I have my docks lined up with the seams on the outside of the "road" parts, with all of the ends lined up at the corners 🙂

[zealous stag]

The people that just play the game vanilla style don't like all those new fangled fancy mod things, and texture packs, and blueprints, and pre-rendered outside of the game builds that are slapped into the game, and rotating things in three dimensions. :p

[olive fulcrum]

That looks really nice, awesome job. you can put planks in the center to hide the rough edges of the planks that don't sit flush, though.

[olive fulcrum]

Ok, they don't have to use them.

[brazen canyon]

Move it around and if u work above the height limit of a fire just add another ontop

[olive fulcrum]

It's only an issue if the modders lie about their process or claim to be better than vanilla builders. That's toxic and F that.

Otherwise it's cool, let people enjoy things.

[brazen canyon]

Vanilla game allows alot tbh

Just gotta be creative

[ruby tree]

any unevenness leftover in my planks is only because the pirate who clobbered it together was more hammered than the nails bashed into the beams XD

[zealous stag]

Windrose and Valheim both don't have Rotate Object. Which is something that is very handy when trying to make things.

[olive fulcrum]

That would be SO NICE if it was built in. Different angled roofs all day long

[zealous stag]

RIFT had it for every object back in 2011. On the Gamebryo engine, even. Enshrouded has it for decorative pieces, but not the voxel pieces they use for roofing, walls, and floors.

Valheim has it as a mod, and a fair chunk of people wanting it in the base game.

[tawdry dock]

one of the nicest things about whisper of the swallows. not a whole lot of content or building pieces atm but i'm normally not very creative and I had a lot of fun with being about to rotate stuff on that game and actually got into building

[blazing marlin]

Omg, is that RIFT???

[pine scroll]

I love Micro-building in this game! 😊

[formal pasture]

I have an elevator in my house. It's out of order atm tho

[ruby tree]

Now that's what that guy should have built on top of that lore skeleton he couldnt remove from his base

[ruby tree]

Rivertown is comin along, just missing 2 more spaces along the river to finish, then a few more things on the ends.

[formal pasture]

Is the river actually deep enough to sail the small little boat through? I changed my Oasis up a little bit to have kinda of a river walk, thinking that the boat would be able to go in it but it wont let me dig down deep enough for it to make it through. its deep enough that its still an aesthetically pleasing riverwalk at least

[ruby tree]

fully functional river with the small little boat, it even fits under the bridges without touching them! 🙂

I didn't have to dredge the river, it was formed naturally as one small island spawned right against the main starter island

[formal pasture]

ahhh okay that makes sense

[tacit thistle]

Just finished my lighthouse, it's not the best but I'm happy with it

[hard oak]

Nice

[left estuary]

Nice small church!

[olive bluff]

Progress is quite slow but we'll get there

[olive fulcrum]

Another warehouse done

[valid cypress]

Guys, I've discovered a new way to make windows.

[shell turret]

bro I am about to crash out 😂

[hard oak]

Love it

[shell turret]

yeah man I might have to add a roof

like how is that not a roof?

might be an issue of the top roofs being placed without snap so I try to add a fake layer in between but if that doesnt do the fix idk man

[olive fulcrum]

Warehouse 1 in the main camp

Not as far along as a lot of the builds on here but i'll get there

[shell turret]

good news I could fix at least the exterior smoke ... thats something and reduced the lag by alot lol

would be actually nice now to be able to use the melting furnace

[fluid wagon]

Saw a lot of windmill but have you ever seen the Watermill ? 👀

[shell turret]

omg I am trolling. Apparently it is not allowed to be placed under a roof ...ggs

omfg how am I supposed to solve this now

well problem solved I guess lol

[formal pasture]

Cozy little bathroom with a tub in the Junior Master Bedroom upstairs

[formal pasture]

That is gorgeous

[hot kettle]

i am making a new mouse mat for my pc whats everyones thoughts ? yes AI was involved

[formal pasture]

thats sick af!

[ruby tree]

Looks great! But it needs some fire in the skye I think 🙂

[frosty kraken]

I'd fade out the compass and make fireskye in a wooden texture with a different color

And maybe make it look more weathered

[hot kettle]

giving it a try now

@ruby tree

[frosty kraken]

I think it looks better idk about the others

Maybe prompt a layer of low fog it might look cool

[frosty kraken]

Looks cool maybe add some plank floors to the path? Not much use for random beams on the ground imo

[gray stream]

naughty pirate😉

[frosty kraken]

[fluid spade]

am I the only one annoyed by the shadows this lamp produces, I wanna use it but every time I see the shadows I have to delete it

[gray radish]

You could utilise the shadow, put a border around it and make it floor art, it looks like a pirate wheel to me

[fluid spade]

that's only in case where it's not standing next to something and ruining everything with the shadows

[gray radish]

What does the shadow look like if you place it up in the corner on shelf of some kind?

[fluid spade]

i'll have to try it out later

[shell turret]

I am also very annoyed of this

but what annoys me the most is that I am not allowed to be under a roof for a furnace to work

I mean yes it makes sense but if I build a chimney, why not?

I dont like those smoke makers to be in the bare outside

its so hard to make em suit into ur environment

especially if u stack buildings

[gray stream]

Brethren of the Holy Goat 🐐 🤣

[tiny comet]

Still working on few minor details more photos to follow soon [No Mods Used]

[shell turret]

nice

[gray radish]

My friend had a great idea for this...make a stone chimney looking tower on the side of the building, then put your furnace/kiln up there and it gives it the chimney vibe without it looking weird

[shell turret]

well I did something like that

[tiny comet]

yeah I didnt want cover the whole fireplace, Hopefully we get more fireplaces in future though

[shell turret]

like please tell me, how is that not legit?

I moved it to the right side at the walls because I wasnt quite happy with stacking smokes

its basically there but u dont even see the working one in the pic

the one you see is just for aesthetics but sadly doesnt work

[astral ermine]

i was wondering if i should add a fire to the top of this build close to where the lightning is

[frosty kraken]

I would add torches or other types of lighting to the path and the side of the house but wouldn't put a bonfire or signal fire on the top

For instance I'd use the short version of the blazers a person disliked a little above this conversation and spread it out to make full use of the shadowy lighting

I use them for my own pier

It adds a really cool atmosphere at night

[tall gorge]

The Addams Family

[frosty kraken]

I like the pathing more than anything it really fits the vibe of the place

[ruby tree]

I recognized it before even reading the caption! haha
Great job!!!

For better screenshots, hide your UI with the /? button beside right-shift, and hide your character by placing their backs against a (temporary) wall

[astral ermine]

@frosty kraken Let there Be light be aware i also added light on most of the stairs and around the base of the house but its not showing up i probably need to up the draw distance

[frosty kraken]

Maybe spread them out a little?

[next depot]

No good, scrap it, has'nt got a dodo lol. It's really good Fireskye

[frosty kraken]

Just far enough for there to be a unlit line between them to make it more of a pocket than a fully lit path

[simple lagoon]

I suggested this here before, but if you're looking for a new building to throw in, consider "The Inn" from Black Sails - I posted a Google Earth "snapshot" of the whole town set here: #🎨│creative message

[ruby tree]

ohh thats a cool design, im running out of room soon though and have some inns. Maybe Ill keep that for the next project I build 🙂

[simple lagoon]

its more a location of ill repute that a true inn 😅

[honest tree]

Here is my current attempt of a small outpost town. Still need to do some more decorating and placing clutter.

[astral ermine]

there we go hows that look

[frosty kraken]

I like it personally

[astral ermine]

same thanks for the pointers i like the contrast

[coral mist]

I'll send pictures later but I'm moving my base to a work-in-progress outpost in the swamp

[shell turret]

Has a cozy vibe to it. Good job

[coral mist]

My next build is going to be recreating one of the old Spanish forts that are in my country

It's gonna be pretty fun

To my knowledge there aren't any jail bars to place down in builder mode. Some of these forts were prisons and the theme of pirates taking over a prison fort to repurpose it into their headquarters sounds dope

[barren violet]

After roughly one week of gathering and building, and demolishing and building again... I am proud to give you: Hachinosu Island! ZE-HAHAHAHAHAHA!

*** The lower-city is still a work in progress

[bronze spruce]

WHOAAAAA!!!!!!!!! Thats so cool!!!!!!

[frosty kraken]

[rich grove]

That looks INCREDIBLE! 😍😍😍

Covenant Cove (wip) - small update tour.

[frosty kraken]

The close shots feel like a completely different game for some reason I can't even explain why

[ruby tree]

Sailing through Rivertown under the moonlight

[simple lagoon]

they need to add a rowboat, simply for you to be able to slowly paddle your way through town

[ruby tree]

I was just thinking the same thing the other night lol

[hot kettle]

i agree

pause all development and give us a row boat:) oh hey then we can add the song row row your boat gently down the stream

[ruby tree]

lol but you gotta sing it in pirate voice

[hot kettle]

ah super i will add you and send you a voice msg just to make your day

[coral mist]

Beautiful

[fading flume]

The old lore. Wow

[mental sierra]

hello there. After seeing everything that you build so far just want to say this to every and each one of you. You ppl are an incredible and insane in best posible way and i really enjoy watching what you have made. Stay this insane. allways ❤️

[ruby tree]

hey thank you Daca!! 🙂
Some of the other builders here have ser a pretty high bar already, and the game is still fresh! Im excited to see more cool builds from everyone

Even the little builds can be inspiring with the unique details people come up with

[next depot]

Amazing.....reminds me of POTC's Singapore (https://youtu.be/YWo3YVEXLy0), though your base is a lot more aesthetic and clean I must say lol. truly well done.

[ruby tree]

ohh yeah thats a cool scene, actually I just got an idea from it...
What if we use the chimneys underwater to make the smoke look like fog on the water?

[coral mist]

You're a genius oh my god

I saw that some people made hot springs. Maybe that's how they got the steam going

[ruby tree]

lol just a test:

might work, but would need some deeper water and good planning

also, a lot of them in one spot is not nice to the FPS

here we go, got it like mist for my water wheel

[next depot]

dude you're crative af....truly do keep going, your base looks great.

[ruby tree]

thanks dude!!! 🙂

I plan on sharing the world file when its ready

[olive fulcrum]

Ship looks dogshit bad

[quaint sedge]

I finally maxed out my ship gear and weapons…took so much grinding. Now I can rest, relax, and focus on building in peace

[coral mist]

Yesterday I finally upgraded my armor to level 15

[ruby tree]

haha nice, I still have some story left to finish and gear/ships to max out. Keeping stuff to look forward to after building the town Ive been meaning to operate out of this whole time

[coral mist]

Now for my weapons, then the ship gear

Grind and a half

But it will be worth it

[quaint sedge]

I’ve leaped frogged. Focused on story until I got to Foothills. Then built my Foothills base. When I got creatively exhausted, I pushed on to Swamplands and discovering all the decor items. Now I’m ready to build again at the donut island and face the final boss

[hot kettle]

donut island?

[ruby tree]

🍩 🏝️

[hot kettle]

here i am making swamp pies when i could have been living off donuts!!!

[ruby tree]

hahaa

[quaint sedge]

It’s a C/donut shaped island that’s pretty ideal for a main base. Every world has one and it’s pretty much the go to island in the community for a base

[ruby tree]

there's an island thats almost a full circle with a lake in the middle, but the lake has an island.
The island is usually still attached to the donut ring.
Its makes for a perfect base harbor - except its usually also in enemy waters, so theres a high chance their patrols will end up attacking you at your base

[hot kettle]

someone send me a pic dont think ive found it

not this?

[quaint sedge]

Yes, that one

[ruby tree]

so similar

[hot kettle]

ah okey

[ruby tree]

mine has an extra mini lake 🙂

[hot kettle]

i picked this one in the end

i spent days dredging out the bay so ships could use it

[ruby tree]

oh wow lol
Does the map topography change depending on areas dug up?

[hot kettle]

nope

city is getting big

[ruby tree]

oh wow youre building over the entire island eh

[hot kettle]

yep

i spent three days building the great wall of china around it

[ruby tree]

that is an ambitious scale

[dim turret]

Hella i need a rum... ^^🤙

[zealous stag]

The map doesn't change if you dredge or add land, but the islands have minor variances between seeds. So sometimes there's a land bridge, sometimes there isn't.
Sometimes the giant rock arch is completely in the water, sometimes it's completely in a sand bank.

[hot kettle]

what i would love is the ability to remove the hard ground

anyone know what am talking about ?

basicly if you dig down so much you reach a point where you cant dig anymore

if you dig on low level you can normal get pretty deep into water

[ruby tree]

so just deeper bedrock for us

[hot kettle]

but higher the terrain then you reach hard ground its annoying

[ruby tree]

that would be cool, but Im also happy to have what we do and I understand the voxel style terrain deformation mechanics

[zealous stag]

Long Ben won't sell us alcohol at the only bar in Tortuga... because we lost our old ID on our last ship. And if he doesn't check our ID before serving, he could lose his liquor license. >.>

[dim turret]

🤣

sounds soooo british

[ruby tree]

check out how I kept the coconut palms in place for my fruits and veggies garden:

[ruby tree]

I like the scaffolding style stairs there, looks legit

like bamboo scaffolding

[turbid coral]

Thanks. That was the plan.

The tower is old and needs repairs.

[ruby tree]

Out with the old bricks, and in with the new

[next depot]

really well done

[hazy oyster]

opinions/tips on what path i should follow/have lead and maybe tips how to smooth it out a bit :)?

[ruby tree]

hey yes this is possible, I was just point it out a few hours ago: #🎨│creative message

You need to use beams and pillars to help the corners line up

[hazy oyster]

ah yeah smart i forgot, did use that idea....working

[ruby tree]

with 3 or 4 horizontal beams as an arm, you can use the angle offsets to get the end point in really precise places

[stiff adder]

how are people taking cinematic pics devoid of their character? just cropping?

[ruby tree]

#🎨│creative message

[shell turret]

thats a smart usage of smokes

[ruby tree]

haha yah eh!
I had another idea too, maybe someone else will try it out before me:
Make like a portal looking doorway, with smoke all comin out of it, and the fast travel bell hidden in the portal by the smoke.
So it looks like you're walking into some foggy interdimensional portal when fast travelling 😁

pirate stargate

[hot crystal]

Almost done redoing my perimeter wall

Then adding some cannon towers

That'll be expensive

[fluid shoal]

first base

second base

second one is wip

mightbve got a little too ambitious with it tho lol

so much stone

but quite the upgrade

[hot crystal]

I've been ordering like 8 stone orders a day

[fluid shoal]

yea im just spamming that

and while waiting for that I go and mine some stone

im done with the front now tho so i think im gonna take a break and progress through the story a bit

[verbal yarrow]

is there a way to make the step in the roof smother im out of ideas ? (i hope its the right channel to ask that)

[ruby tree]

Like this?

[verbal yarrow]

yes

is that the 13° corner peaces?

[ruby tree]

26 degree, first the roof corner, then the reverse roof corner.

[verbal yarrow]

will try thx

[ruby tree]

but yeah 13 has them too if thats what angle youre using

[verbal yarrow]

y have the problem of to large but i changed some things then that and should fit now didnt think of the inverted corner thx again

[vocal skiff]

Me and my friend have make new base. Does anyone recognize this view?

[verbal yarrow]

dont forgett to switch the mug every 15 seconds

[vocal skiff]

Beacon on the top.

How to get so many teleport? We can only make 10 of them. 😮

[chilly dune]

Moding

CurseForge

[shell turret]

can somebody make a mod to make furnace a thing for under roofs?

that would be dope ngl

so tired of this smog party

I am already using tricks to hide it by building chimney but it doesnt work still

[sacred mortar]

https://tenor.com/view/a-pirate-i-was-meant-to-be-monkey-island-3-monkey-island-3-gif-5950603833269973464

When you can -hear- the gif.

[simple lagoon]

already exists I believe

theres also mods to just remove the smoke effects

[lost sonnet]

bc some of them are from missions or cities like turtle or smld

[next depot]

thats a good shot, (press '/' to take away the ui)
