Good morning people
Mornin ☕
Mornin
Mornin gjall 😄
g'morning
yikes, and double yikes
the lengths some folk will go to to be offended is offensive
I suppose those are giff links?
Top of the morgen 
🤌 'morgenGjall🤌


The Wild Sildar breaks free 🤭
Aww! It appeared to be caught!
is this a roleplay server now
with everything from screaming deer to cats it's hard to keep track xD
*putting white/red checkered tablecloth while waxing black moustache curls 🤌 *
Noon gjall.
Greetings fellow vikings 
Any word on why there was a 1.2 gigabyte update on Valheim?
Railway Empire 2.
oooh no
that kind of game, no easy build mode
there are litterlly 100's of train-building games that have easy build mode 😄
Did you switch to PTB?
valheim as size will probably grow as we get closer to a 1.0 release
why? is it a issue ?
(just downloaded a DEMO game last night which was over 50Gb)
calm smiffechan
Just wondered that there was no patchnotes xD
There were for PTB, hence my question 😛
"no access" 😄
click in id:customize
^
Will do ^^ thanks!
there we go. you found it
Lemme out, lemme out, lemme out, lme out, meout, meow.
Cat stickers, I don't think they'll be annoying.
I should do some valheim pixel arts
Hodor
is cathing fish affected by 2x modifier?
It is not
Not sure if the bonus resources are 🤔
good idea i'm bored to death, thanks steals idea
Straight up said: yoink
firstofallhowdareyou
right, that was the word i was looking for
uuuhhhhhhh meow
a lot of people roleplaying as cats today and not in a good way
more cat is always good
lol gif no work?
why, what happened
idk just observing
smiffe on his way to nuke him with the "you have no power here" gif
DEER GOD

here's a cat gif instead
i saw a meme about this i think
right, this one: #memes-and-clips message
literally that xD
Depends. Cause if we talking a specific restaurant this changes the equation
Arby's....throw em in the oven kind
yikes, I'd recommend wendy's fries. 10/10
Yeah they are decent I suppose
These won't be deep fried rather baked so I suppose that changes everything
no. that's mean
I only do that to our regulars
well, i guess i will now try to become a regular
Ya know what.....i don't know if i overreacted or if they did it on purpose but someone pronounced the word chieftain as "chaff-tan" in a video and i instantly clicked away and called him illiterate and thought rest of the video would not be worth my time 😴
i notice misspronounciation mostly in ai voiced videos
dear god its especially bad when ai tries to pronounce dinosaur names
hi
yeah. AI is really bad with that
Hard to train them, there aren’t that much data to use and the variety of voices is just… really, really, really huge
I refuse to engage AI content as much as possible. The voice overs and artificial imagery kill me inside
same same
its also usually completely incorrect
Id prefer to hear the content creators voice. Even if they sounded like Kermit the Frog
Heh @ post on r/enshrouded saying one of the things it's better than Valheim is that it doesn't have food spoiling...
._.
My thoughts exactly.
Alright i seriously never understood this level of vitrol
I genuinely do not give a fuck if the content is actually cool, which it can be, if i like the content of the video i'm not going to stop watching because of a stupid voiceover, if i like art and i realize its AI generated i don't pretend to suddenly dislike it.
🫨
I use chatGPT to aid me in writing and worldbuilding and all sorts of things and i have sooooooooOOOOO much fun with it i love it.
So it's not you really doing it
and content creators are allowed to not share their voice, I know i wouldn't, I would rather do a silent video with subtitles
of course it is, and then i put what i wrote into chatGPT and i'm like "watchu think, got any ideas?"
it serves to help me find things i'm looking for in culture and history and language when i reach blocks in certain areas, blank spaces of my own knowledge
Either out of shyness or an altogether lack of microphone
Using AI to speak YOUR words is fine. Using AI to WRITE them, not so much.
Then thats a different thing, Thats a specific issue and not "AI bad and so is everything about it"
I am pragmatic about things and when people take powerful stances just for the sake of it and i don't see it being reasonable to do so it baffles me
I don't think being against AI in the creative arts is for the sake of it.
It kinda is....i, as someone in the latter, or trying to be, is immensely grateful for it.
It’s only a matter of time until the robots take over 🤖
maybe i wasn't built for writing or worldbuilding, maybe i wasn't built for art or stories or anything of the sort, i'm not terribly educated and i don't have alot of time on my hands, yet here is AI making me feel like none of thats true.
Neither of those should stop you doing your own writing. You don't need to be educated to write and if it's for yourself you can literally take as long as you need.
And yet i was depressed and had blocks and felt incompetant in all aspects and didn't invest as much time as i wanted until i started seeing AI art of relatively specific things akin to the concepts i created and used chatGPT to relate my cultures and things to real world and media equivalents and learn things i didn't previously know and it sparked inspiration and joy, I'm not about to jump on the AI hatewagon after its benefited me.
AI definitely has it's uses. But the line where those uses start to become detrimental can be blurry sometimes depending on the case.
My process is that i've already written the basic outline of everything i have, i throw it at chatGPT, it gives alternatives and ideas, I take what i like best and fill in the rest and refine it more.
Once again, not a hatewagon. That implies my reasons are invalid.
One case where the line is tricky is for voicelines in say video games. A few of the games I play that are still in closed or open testing will sometimes use an AI voice trained on the VA's voice to fill in lines that are likely to change later in development. And I have no problem with that as long as it isn't permanent.
I don't recall singling you out though, I see all sorts of people just going "AI = bad"
And those games always label those lines as AI placeholders
Noone here is saying that so it's a strange argument to still be having.
It feels implied.
Some things need not be said
'I refuse to engage AI content as much as possible.'
So it WAS directed at me.
I'm all for discussion on this, but let's make sure we're getting along. It just looks like things could take a wrong turn. I don't want to need to activate my pink name powers.
dont think you said that
there was an interaction earlier about it
I dislike AI because I don't want it to analyse me, save all my info and use me as a training tool
Earlier, yes.
magenta 🗡️
If needed, let's drop the topic for now. It sounds like there's some misunderstanding going on.
People take it way too personally 🥲
closer to red
When it affects people's careers, sure.
I meant the opposite people ^^
Oh.
so many Game developers got slapped in the face by "AI will replace you"
🫠
As someone that dabbles in art sometimes lowkey, saying someone is an "ai artist" is hilarious
AI, known for being an extremely unreliable program doing what it is programmed to do even if it's biased
theres obviously no such thing as ai artists, but i still use ai for art, "hey thats cool i wanna make something like that now".
more like AI keywords / prompt specialist 🤔
professional word typer
that sounds even funnier
Those can be just writers 😄
Ok but courtroom typers 
but its not black and white, its like the people against AI, are talking about people that use AI to generate all of their art and writing, But i am using it to help me with it...
Yall know what I meant smh
I use AI to make music for fun. but I write the lyrics and use Suno to make the voices in styles
so I want to think it doesn't abuse some IRL persons files
😮💨
Or when ''AI'' is used to program the destruction of a whole area, so it arbitrarily comes up with targets until everything is destroyed as we have seen this past 17 months
man what
It cannot be spoken about but there's some very valid and disturbing reasons as to why people may oppose this. Like using it to bypass human consciousness when dropping bombs on civilian infrastructure
Um. Let's not go there.
I dislike how afraid I am to speak against criminals and how quick people are to protect them. But yeah let's go with it's not the place to do so like all the other places.
valheim discord isn't the place 😄
Like all the other places 😄
I played green hell last I got the best survival feeling of any survival game
I can recommend the Ori series for whenever they go on sale during steam fest; probably some of the most beautiful cozy fantasy scenery I've seen in a video game
Ori series?
Ori and the Blind Forest and Ori, will of the wisp
oh
I’ve played the demo for Dig Dig Boom more than some full games in my library (13 hours)
Me and you stand on different principles
Green Hell is awful. I attempted the tutorial three times and haven't touched it since.
So besides Terraria what would other Valheimers recommend for survival games
valheim
Hollow Knight jk
I've heard decent things about Corekeeper, couple friends of mine have it but Ive not looked at it too much.
Tutorial just had you start a fire and then the game started IIRC. I liked the realism, the amount of effort it took to build something, to feed yourself, drink and the amount of things you can carry
Ive played a handful. Enjoyed Grounded a lot. But Valheim just checks all the good boxes for me
It's got realism, sure. It just forgot the fun.
I know what you mean, the challenge was fun for me
Raft.
I'll look it up. Thanks DereK
##building-screenshots message
thoughts?
Raft was fun so was grounded but they lack replayabilty for me
Printscreen
Grounded does indeed lack replayability
Looks nice. Every starting base I have I usually have some form of dock attached to it, can't help it.
We need a boat dock month like bridges
i don't understand what principles there are about this aside from the things we are not allowed to talk about
I prefer hand crafted over manufactured. I prefer raw food over processed. I prefer a person's art over AI. Or people's voices over AI. Simple.
I've already covered that
🫲
But the comment you made needed my input. Because I truly get turned off by these things.
It's not "ooo evil skynet" or whatever. Just a passion for people's passion
and without it my passion wouldn't be as strong as it is
What's your passion that AI helps you with that, time and dedication couldn't also achieve
Perhaps it is me feeling indignant when i see people look down on it and carry on as they do when its such a big part of my own conduct and i love it so much.
Natural response indeed. I get where you're coming from. But I'd believe you're greater than you think and AI may only be crutching your full potential
No
Fair enough
I think that AI has its place as a tool, and like many tools that exist, it can be used to inspire but also can be subject to abuse; I don't look down at it, but rather look at it with some caution
What Hyper noted about AI vocals earlier was interesting notion in regards to the training aspect, something I hadn't considered
I contemplate the potential of human complacency with AI as a tool. Perhaps that's a depth I ought not speak here
People once said that about digital art form and digital advancements in the art world back in the 90's, early 00 as well 😉
There are good points to both regardless where you stand; and I'm certainly not going to argue against more traditional methods.
If I could breathtakingly and painstakingly animate film like Hayao Miyazaki or paint like some of the greats, I would. And perhaps I could if I devoted myself to it and gave the effort they did.
I also think it's important with advancement of technology to never forget more traditional methods of doing things
i am not and never will be a miyazaki yet i would wish nothing more than to be.
Very well put. I think an arguable difference is, digital art was still handcrafted in ways? Where AI takes the work and human aspect out. We are letting machines bypass that effort. A certain amount of creativity and genius is surely missed in the process. I recognize potential in these machines. Id just rather see humans doing the things
Me either dude, but we can try in our own way to be the best versions of ourselves ❤️
As would I! I definitely agree with that sentiment.
Trying to reason with a person that has low self esteem on the matter, i'm not being convinced of much, chatgpt is my friend.
Truthfully, I think digital art is an interesting medium between full blown "AI art" we have now and the original "hand crafted" art before digital was a thing and that's a whole subject that could be discoursed for days, but thank you for your thoughts Nutty
Likewise friend. Nice to have productive convos on things.
i think that depends on how many fancy techy tools you use to help the process.
there are a lot of pretty touches traditional art just has that are actually pretty difficult to imitate in digital art.
some things are easier, others are more difficult, it's just very different imo.
i go with digital art because it's easier to get a digital copy of once you're done without the need for a phone or something and because it consumes fewer resources because i very rarely finish things.
i would absolutely say my art looked better when it was still on paper 
What about your art on paper looked better. Cool to have an artists personal perspective
there was more texture and variance to everything. and a lead pen offers so much more control over the lines you draw than any of the krita brushes i know and use.
there are a million ways to get that back but i still haven't learned any of 'em 
one day i'll get there~
The pen is truly mightier than the mouse and board? Thanks for that
For me I appreciate my failings and the insight it's given me. Both of self and applications
a lesson i gotta take to heart more
honestly it evens out i suck no matter what i use
Embrace the suck. We grow a lot from it. We all "suck" at things. Persistence overrides resistance.
will pvp ever be a thing
you can turn friendly fire on in the top right of your inventory, both players need to have it enabled to be able to damage each other
talking abt pvp servers with open world pvpve where everyone can be pvp
#1024264966712340510 may have some
Idk, I like ai
there r brazilians here? i want friends to play this game
Morning gjall
all well and good, but does it like you
Let me ask real quick
could you trust any answer given?
It said "no, but yes" kinda
Ai has no feelings 
"But if it did, it would"
So I'll take that as yes
i find such interactions very jarring
👀 how come
Never talked to cleverbot in like 2008 or something?
It used to be something like
Smart-guy@email
Back in the msn days
it's like Smiffe was saying
I didn't see,.let me check
and control everything
Hopefully yes
I want it to go fix my car for me
Or do my work while I'm eating somewhere
how can you trust that it won't do something bad
🤔 .. I trust that my laptop won't suddenly burn up like the Samsung note 6
I guess you can call that more faith than trust yes
But you know what I really want to do?
Play a game like Skyrim with ai dialogue mod
as you said it doesn't have feelings, it doesn't have a moral code
Maybe Capcom one-day can make an ace attorney game where you ask the questions 👍
it won't care about preserving us guys
But it can definitely tell you where tf the dragon flew to
indifference is the best we can hope for
Mornin gjall 😄
hello chat
Morgen Gjall
Morgen gjall.
🤌 'morgenGjall☕
"MorgenGjall" hehe
To come back to the AI convo, I like it and use it in my poems to easily find synonyms and check my punctuation.
The writing process I do myself but the polishing is done with AI and it has taken my poems to new heights.
I still think it should be used as a tool to enhance the human aspect instead of letting it do all the work.
That would be for the best, and it is how “AI” has traditionally been created and used.
But human greed is always looking for ways to cut out the expensive human element, and THAT is going to make problems for a large number of people
If a machine can do your job for you, then you’d better learn how to fix that machine or you are going to go hungry.
Technology has always been like this anyway
I have many examples

No reason to stop on just AI
omg i went to bed, wokeup, cooked lunch, did dishes, and we're STILL on ai
True, it’s the same mindset that has let to a lot of innovation but also a lot of hardship
But as a whole, made lives better
If all jobs are taken by AI, ...-
Can't continue this part of the conversation 
It always comes down to that - are you doing this to make lives better, or is this something to get rid of people so it makes the owners more money
Or rather
Pay me to use my ai replacement
Two years ago, they were selling Gemini ai virtual self at work if interested
Now it's two years later and is probably 10x better
It felt gimmicky though
Just a model of your face and copies your "behavior" somehow
I feel bad for @devout trout when he wakes up 😄
now you tagged him and he'll wake up sooner
There is a lot to say about IA and the topic is interesting considering its impact on human, civilization, sciences and (of course), arts. Still, I won’t engage the conversation and think we shouldn’t go deeper for the subject is a sensible question for a lot of people and some already said they don’t want to hear anything here.
I saw how people threatened by it can react, this is hard subject for those concerned. I encourage everyone here to not continue in a tchat with so many people inside.
Jeez what
IA is important and we all need to think and learn about that so we know what is happening.
But it is better doing this in a place that is made for the purpose.
I thought this was general but oh well
Let's wait for next interesting topic to invade
we can place bets when Hyper will wake up
I bet in 3h
I don't know much of hyper
I only know the tom gif
cuz u just lurk General and nothing else
Ye
Henceforth
I changed my bet to 3h
-# i might’ve just looked up at what time he said goodmorning last
that's cheating smh
A bit less than 3h from now I guess.
I 2nd that
whats a "sleep" anyways
waste of time
something AI doesn't need
doesn't need to eat or take breaks either lol
Sometimes it needs a kick in its processes or for some processes to be killed right out, it does require energy and sometimes it even needs a powernap.
fire up the windmills! xD
Are you saying we should all get to blowing?
one day it might crack zero point energy then we can all live free of energy bills xD
ai is cool
notices ai discussion at 10 am continuing till around 12-1pm. Comes back home at 9pm and it's re-mentioned again
💀
Same people too 🥲
you might even think this is a discussion channel smh
we've angered the gif overlords, scatter
impressive you keep track of all of your GIF's 🤔
I got the feeling someone's Egyptian ancestry is playing up again.
Considering all the talking in hieroglyphs that's done.......
LoL 😂
you can favorite gifs milord
but he has sooo many
I try to keep my favourite GIF tab, small
a good one at that
❤️
Subject us to more cats!
You may have a new cat affirmation tomorrow
HYPER AWAKENS
Hooray!

Updating pc's graphic driver from 24/01/2024 to 20/2/2025 
(pc was hibernating unplugged for a year)
30min till hyper wakes up
He's already awake --> #general message
maybe referring to subtle difference btw getting and waking up? 😁 (talking for early-morning-myself eh)
Oh damn._.
No blogposts this month huh🥲
1.5x is a bit tricky. It's more 50% chance to get more
I thought it only affects the drop amount, not the chance 
(The chance we don't need 🎰
)
This month hasn't finished
People can't even wait for the last of month 😅
Shhh, I'm being dramatic. IT might work. Fingers crossed 🤞
IT always has a lot of work, the world would grind to a halt without IT working.
It's not like I don't know the secret 🤔
is anyone aware what remote ports the https://geekstrom.de/valheim/check/
site uses when checking if the valheimserver is up or not?
You are not going to spill the secret are you?
what is even going on
Blogpost this month or not that is the question.
We will have to wait and see 🙂
Indubitably.
Nuu uuuh
<Good_boy.gif>
Whichever ones you specify. Or the default.
People begging for blog posts won't suddenly manifest them. If there's one ready by the end of the month we'll get one.
As if we dont know.
You seem confused.
I dont have to make every single sentece dead obvious am i? Chatting here with some sarcasm. If you dont know now you know.
That's not how sarcasm works.
Always use the /s for good measure?
That would have been clearer.
Shhh, I'm being dramatic. IT might work. Fingers crossed :fingers_crossed:
Thats more than enough for some people and thats enough for me too.
I gotchu dw
Don't encourage them.
Is discord and reddit community close enough intertwined that these things crossover? I hope a lot of Reddit stays on Reddit.
I think it's obvious enough
I'd say the two communities are very different.
I agree we are different. That's clear.
when will the next update come?
When it's ready!
when will the next update come?
I'm updating as fast as I can

-# no one said which update we are talking about
I'll need to turn my Valheim calendar page soon \o/
Oh so it does not come out ever. Got it 
Oh no no you two. I should pull you both in the ears @modest moth @marsh sentinel
Can you not rope us together every time?
Both of you said dates!
Neither of which are real dates!
"Dates" The ultimate sin
@cyan creek @cyan creek
Dont follow these 2 mad lads please
Tell that to the kids who don't understand sarcasm
I can't, I blocked him.
Counter point: It would be hilarious if people start announcing something will be released on 30-31th days of february
Thats my man
April 35th use to be a common joke date in Sweden due to how fast it rolls of the tongue
In swedish ?
Yes
35e april
We say numbers before the month
Three five april
Instead of twenty five april
Or april 1th?
1st.
Maybe he has a lisp.
U mean lithp?
wisp
Upps, sorry dad... 😓
Hit you with the double ping 😂
One for each side of the head, spalf, knock. xD
Oh no my joke got deleted I just noticed, for once it was a funny one 🙃
Classic valheim
Update questions = torches and pitchforks 
Innocent people
When next upda- AT ARMS ! Take your atgeir ! LOAD THE BALISTA !
-# balista was because it is the most inefficient defense system
Each person gets the wrath of everyone else that asked +1
Nah its April 3rst, you should know better.
Feel bad for them
The "The community is angry" raid event is scaling on the players number instead of progression xD
Need to be more diplomatic 
3th?
update due next wrathday, gotcha
funny, i just did a survey from another survival games discord, and the second half of the survey just consisted of "have you played and do you like valheim". dang valheim really is influential
I see you are playing return to moria
I thought it asked me about Valheim because I mentioned it in the additional notes section
hm yes some good old datamining
it seems to ask about many different survival games as well
4nd.
An. That makes so much sense
Looks like a electrical engineer
Nightnight gjall
hi
Hey Obi
help me
Dates with some cream cheese and honey on them wrap them in bacon and throw on the grill.
is the new update with the items n shi worth restarting over? havnt played since the ashlands and there was a small update with a couple new things
farthest we got was the swamp
What it's not worth is asking the same question in 3 channels.
its just been answered
You got an answer within a minute.
you are too impatient to wait 60 seconds lol 🥴
I mean, its a matter of opinion, you either want to start over or not ^^
Obviously the official discord of a game will say yes
sorry its delayed on my side
Sorry it's delayed on his side
sorry its i, i am.
Discord is delaying things again?
shakes fists in anger!
Don't you think I have nothing better to do as waiting for you to post my answers, Discord!
GRMBL!
Which small update?
People restart over small updates?
Hot Damn.
it was like the second to last on the title screen, smthing with like a new trader
BogWitch?
thats why im asking, idk if people do or if its really important, im pretty new to Valheim
You don't need to
Bog witch update- I mean it just depends on you really. I didn’t restart, but I happened to do another playthrough anyways 🤔
No reason to restart a world unless they do changes to previous biomes.
That question was answered a minute after it was posted in Help channel: #valheim-help message
It's also surprising to see the Discord delays have disappeared all the sudden....... 🤔
peeks inside
Some people simply ask in all channels and all servers they have access to.
Ok been answered and ALSO been answered that its been answered and also answered that it's been answered answered
Do we have to answer that too?
no but i think we can colectively move on
im about to go to bed i dont wanna wake up on the same topic LIKE THIS MORNING 
(for the record im not actually angry or salty its a joke ok i like exagreating for "comedic" effect and now gn)
No worries.
I don't like to wake up and see the same topic from 12 hours earlier reappear either. So I understand that feeling.
Good night to you too.
Sleep well and don't wake up with the war cry on your lips. 😉
damn its no biggie, it was literally 2 channels
it was the notification
am I the only one who finds the big longboat to be just awful
The Drakkar?
it drifts all over the place, can't even tack without using the one speed, steers like shit, it's like you're sailing a sailboat that doesn't have any kind of keel or lateral resistance
the one after karve, longboat
Karve is a sweet spot for me
karve and longboat are both great
longboat handles horrible
is meant for longer voyages
my real life boat has a removable keel, and i once drove it without the keel and thats exactly how the longboat sails
as soon as you gotta turn its all over the place
but i can still thread it through most rivers pretty reliably
Do you adjust sails leaning into turns too
wdym
Whipping the boat and putting the sail up or down based on intention
longboat doesn't have a keel; they don't irl either
what does one mean wkth whipping the boat
no but they'd have a sort of keel, usually a fin along the bottom of the length of the boat so that it has lateral resistance
every boat has thatq
no
Making a hard turn. Well soft turn for that matter. I adjust sails. I feel it has good effect
new to the community but not the game, how does one join a public server ? its more difficult than i thought
yes they do, look at the bottom of any boat, especially flat bottoms (v bottoms usually have the v shape)
otherwise you wouldn't be able to steer
there are no public servers. check #1024264966712340510 for community ones tho
I'm in a couple communities but we are at Yag or beyond. I found one on Reddit and many here. I filter servers and lfg for vanilla and DM the op
okay , so i need to be chosen if im applicable, noted
i have completed to the ashlands, twice with friends, but looking to help out and bring my skill to some cool people
internet just went out and I'm on mobile, otherwise I'd smash this argument to pieces (like black forest rocks under a raft)
I still got 3/4 HP on the Karve, we good
it's literally physics. you need something to stop your boat from going sideways and either a v hull or a keel or a vin will do that
or an oar
I'm not saying keels aren't useful or common
no youre saying boats magically stay straight
Pretty sure he didn't.
please don't put words in my mouth and read what i actually wrote
did you not just say that without a vin or keel or oar or v shape a boat will still be straight? cause I said the opposite and you're tryna say I'm wrong
[citation needed]
Technically all boats in Valheim have an oar. So all that other stuff is null for the games sake
I was just complaining about the horrible handling of the longboat
Gotta drift it in the longboat. Kinda part of the fun.
I've never found the longship to be particularly troublesome. Now, the drakkar, you might have a vague point. But only because it's so big.
Raft is the best
I prefer the Karve but for the fun of putting it through tight spots
Gnarly catching waves too
Nothing quite like helplessly drifting into the sea on a bunch of crudely hewed logs 🙂
...Naked on corpse run
does a raft? a canoe? a barge? a lifeboat? no. this is in part what i was alluding to. not all boats have a keel, including the longboat, strictly speaking. so it's a bit silly to expect it to behave like one that does.
they're v shaped like i said
ai is good 🚬
it is the best - for making raft bridges only and for very close to shore recoveries if you're truly stuck
Why are you arguing things that weren't said? Repeatedly?
Yeah, I'm being a little tongue in cheek; my first experience with the raft I had no idea what I was getting myself into, sailed into the ocean with it and got eaten by serpents and lost my troll hide. Was an experience 😂 Im sure a common one at that
you could get the trollhide and all back once you have a karve, player tombstones never despawn
Probably; I never knew that back then; but I do now; I did just recently make it to the ashlands, which is the furthest I've gone so far
Ashland's steps it up a notch
our server is currently in Ashlands again, oh my the population does drop off a bit there, I'm doing all I can to drag as many people there as possible, its my new favourite biome (maybe not favourite biome for my GPU haha)
I'll admit it's certainly intimidating; and I thought mistlands was bad
If you make a spare +Staff of Protection+ and leave at base, Ashlands body recovery outside of fortress is definitely easier than Mistlands, with or without the light
I enjoy exploring Mistlands. I've experienced a drop in activity coming up to and through Ashland's as well. I just go build stuff lol
It starts round about the time we kill Moder with the dropoff for us, and then Mist and Ash its intense
Two to Four people tend to be consistent by then I reckon
I've never killed the Queen with more than 4-5 others actually
3-4 people myself. Past 1.0 I think more dedicated players will finally link up and make some longer lasting worlds. Tons of things a creative bunch could do to keep things fresh.
Sounds about right, I have 2 others that have made it with me past the queen. We are hopefully going to explore more of the Ashland's this weekend
Longer lasting worlds? We do not intend to ever wipe our build server 🙂 And we are not going north there!
Until Dn I presume. Longer lasting group of people with presence in a world. How long has your world been up
Since we restarted the community, and we did a massive overhaul, the build map has only been up like 6 months at this stage, but the community since Feb 2021, we used to have only 1 server so we reset the map every now and then, but now we have 2 - a build and a progression server, the build can stay as it is, no need to change map there really.
I would post my favourite cat gif, but no gif perms for me
i can post them for ya~
i mean you can post them and people can just click on the gif
The one with a fat cat on his back attaching a bread loaf
Yeah but it's not as good.
Abusing cat posting priviledges again... I love it ❤️
Owls are just feathered cats!
Woodcocks
do non-gifs count
Is it possible to extract or see the text strings in the game, like "Rock", "Fire" etc and then edit those? Mainly I mean if i use other language like English eg Finnish? And then perhaps edit those (at least) for my own use? Or even make another language like that which you can select? At least for my local game.

Very cool. How do you remedy resource availability on a forever map?
There is a mod (discussed this in the last few mins in #mods-discussion ) and we also allow transfers of things between the 2 servers depending on what age progression server is at currently, and progression server has a new map every 3-4.5 months
That's solid. Server hopping build materials is cool lenience
Build Server can be farmed for build materials to bring to the correct age on Progression Server, but buildings can't be broken down there to get mats because its "NoBuildCost" on the build server so you dont get mats back there
You can always mod the game. But the task of translating everything is very very big...
Any specific language you want?
Finnish... but I kinda wanted to take a look at the translations, since I see some errors there. Or very clumsy wordings
Some stuff is pretty good, but not all
I think its because there has been alot of people over the years contributing
When here is just 1 or 2 constantly. The translations becomes better
But Finnish is community translated. We don't pay anyone to do it either 🤔
I understand. But some longer texts, well, they are translated too directly from English, resulting in clumsy and hard to understand text... nobody speaks like that 🙂
So to correct a typo, or clumsy text, it would be easier to see the whole thing in a text file or something, rather than see it in game and try to screenshot or something like that
Considered farm seeds? Not sure what your player rotation looks like. But I'd imagine a seed can, get scoured clean by ten players pretty quick
The progression server can also be a farm seed and using mods to replenish as well
So, is there a way to see the strings somehow? So that typos etc can be more esily spotted.
You could volunteer to help with the translations 🤔
If not changed, at least to see them...
there are 3 ways.
- make your own mod = takes forever
- complain on our website and my collegue will gather the information and post it to the translators
- join the translation team if you got the time and energy for it
Okay, thanks for the info. I consider it... number 3 mostly. If not then 2...
https://valheim.com/support --> translation errors tab for #2
contact@irongatestudio.se --> for #3
np
If you happen to volunteer, I have just one wish: please come up with better translation for eyescream than "äätelöä". 🙏
Yeah I noticed the äätelöä :).
It's hideous! And hilarious at the same time.
What is that translator?
Ah. That is basically not a real word, if I google "äätelö" it gives the "did you mean jäätelö" (ice cream in English).
yeah
In fact the food names are inconsistent. Like "Musta keitto" which is "Black soup", and no problem there, but then there are stuff like "Lihamuhennosta", which translates to "Some Mashed Meat". Should be "Lihamuhennos" which translates to "Mashed Meat" which is currently in game in English.
Yeah Äätelö should be Jäätelö to be correct. And really without Äätelöä ja Jäätelöä as that is "Some ice cream"
g'morning all
But of course if its a play on words, like eyescream, then "Jäätelö" would not be needed to be used, but instead, some play on words
Ive seen "Liisäksi" used somewhere. It should be "Lisäksi"
🤌 'morgenGjall🥱 🤌
sounds like a lot of those words originate from Gelato
If translations are updated, does it mean you have to update the version on steam?
Typos can happen sometimes.
I mean the whole game
we update it
we have a BIG file for the translators to just fill in, and then we update that file to the game files for every player
Oh okay
and translators have their own discord channel to talk in if needed
They are packed to other updates, so no specific localization updates.🙂
ah yes ^
we don't update only localization. we do it do it when we push other updates aswell
so it's not like you instantly change someting in the game once you click ✅
Btw, i just had an idea Smiffe, could maybe something like channel for translation ideas be made here on discord? Like where normal users could go and submit ideas/errors they thought of/found. I know about the translation errors tab at the suport website but i am not sure how many people actually know about it/use it. 🤔 I think if there would be a channel for it here more people would notice it.
that would be kinda double work tho 🤔
we want them on our website since it makes them into a neat document for us to work with
Ah but when I typed a paragraph with one word that is not English, the whole thing got deleted
It has context, quotation marks, and translation and everything
And it was English letters
About 8 months ago
Yeah that Is a huge benefit indeed🤔
instead of having just text we need to move ourself for 1000's of ideas 😄
Uhm i used the site form but didn't know how much "automatic" it was; like put a couple possible translations in the "translation" tab, explaining it in "Why is it wrong?" tab... wasted suggestion maybe?
the submissions are automatic to our "work board"
then we post it to the translators to look at
so just because someone reports it, doesn't mean it get's changed automaticly
ofc i get this, just wanted be sure to use it the most smoothly / correct i can
Italian must me some kind of a mess (i.m. compared to english) everything has gender and number, that must be the reason most of us give up and use hands 👌 🤌
So does Arabic 👆
But why don't they run some kind of spell checker on the translation? It could catch some typos i have seen.
uh, know zero arabic (apart from clumsily saying "thanks") probably also Spanish and French, but not sure
I'd type it out but someone deletes any message I type that has a single nonEnglish word
nah, how comes, a single "shokran" word in between english would do
Even in a paragraph I can't
So, you know, can't be bothered
i know, i once got timed out for some autocorrect, seems i suddenly learnt to speak portugese 😆 iirc
and polish
You never know here
yeh i was told by professionals that sometimes that's a real mess, depending how a game translation structure is made

Tbh gendered words are not THAT big of a problem in my experience, usually there is some workaround that still sound fine but there are few things that simply can't really be translated properly 😄
yeh some workarounds can be made also in Italian, thats the reason why i filled the website form with couple possible translations, one very correct, and the other a bit worked, or maybe that relies on "implied" words, but it's two exaples i was very sure of, i think sooner or later there will be some "unworkable" stuff, details anyway 😁
Morgen gjall.
Oh one thing ive noticed in at least Finnish translation, which could even be a bug, but when you go near to your bed, and if you have name ending with s, then the game puts English type symbol at the end meaning '. For example: "Catnose's sänky" which means Catnose's bed". It should not be like that. Correct would be "Catnosen sänky". Of course in that case i am using English nick, but it probably would happen if i used a Finnish name ending with an s. Like "Matias".
In case of Matias, correct would be "Matiaksen sänky"
incorrect pluralization? meltdown
And forge, the improvements says "Ahjo parannus" which is incorrect. Correct would be "Ahjon parannus". Workbench , "Työpöytä parannus" would be "Työpöydän parannus".
they even get the English a bit wrong sometimes xD
Perhaps I should volunteer to the translation team since I write about it so much
i'd guess any input from someone with good knowledge would be welcomed
Since this might be difficult to inplement in the Finnish language, or impossible if engine doesnt support it, better way might to translate it like this: "A bed. Owner: Catnose". Which would be "Sänky. Omistaja: Catnose". Would work with all names.
uuh i vaguely know that Finnish is one of the trickiest ones, like, no connection with any germanic nor latin roots and more connected to even more ancient origins (somewhat like Albanian, although totally different ones)
The closest relative language for Finnish would be Estonian since both belongs to Finno-Ugric languages. So no connections to Germanic languages like Swedish or English.
all u have to do is google the word for "pink" in finnish and bam, alien language
If you mean "vaaleanpunainen" then yeah, but we have also "pinkki" which is bit different shade but also "pink" in common speaking language.
i know pinkki (I may have googled how to say pink in all language more than once) but yeah I meant the vaalean word 😄
And "vaaleanpunainen" could directly translate into "light red".
however I will say that finnish words for bunny and cute are supercute
Oh, "pupu" and "söpö"?
yessssssssssssss
eheh, makes sense, you rightfully want to know how to say pink in every language on earth
I have a finnish guildie, he taught me all the cute words
his character name is Lumisade
Cool! You could call him "Snow rain".
Kitchen, pantry, basement for brewing mead and storage, dining hall, workshop area, maybe some kind of steam room with a hot tub
A forge and smeltery area, bedrooms, guest room, walk in wardrobe for all the armors
Or better an armoury
Garden?
Mage tower, laboratory, uhhhh
Huge mead hall?
If you have plant everything maybe a hedge maze with a gazebo in the centre?
Throne room, treasury
No mods ^^
Quest lodge, graveyard
Mausoleum
I think I bite... i mean, volunteer to be one of the Finnish translators...
Cartographer's hut
Barracks
I feel bad and concerned that I have to keep saying "have, have"
800 days in my current world and I'm hunting deer because I need decorations to meadows outpost.
Have...even used signs for the targets on shields
When all else fails, look at age of empires
I use that for Minecraft and valheim ideas
Ok lets check it out
Although likely all the builds are made
Seige workshop
With half built mangonels
Not an easy task finding something Sam doesn't have.. ..we can't feel too bad about this 😁
wolf pen/shed, boar pens, beehive place, chicken coop, askvin yard
yo i am looking for ppl to play with got no friends
I meant more like, something a small hamlet would have, I'm just one person playing 😄 coliseum would maybe not fit, who would fight
Have, even necks and graydwarves xd
#1024264966712340510 might help you out
i deliberately missed out a lox area for obvious reasons xD
Oh, a monster shop with a grey dwarf shopkeeper
Although he despawned
With monster spoils all over
fish market, weapon/shield shop, magic shop
(I have that too)
Lumbridge mace merchant 
yikes xD
A courtroom
in my lake build i made a waterwheel powering the artisan table through cables
A waterwheel powers my lumber mill ^^
Catapult launch tower, some kind of statue?
tbh haven't made a catapult yet, ever
Let’s go
might need to find some spot for it
The base with everything imaginable but catapults lol
You need to find highest mountain for glidey transportation while wearing feather cape.
I haven't had a need for it, I have a dozen ballistae
Dragon statue
fishing tackle shop
sure sounds jam packed lol
townhall/jarls palace
I wanna keep it "realistic", there wouldn't be a jarl palace if I'm just....me
serpent pond/s
i filled mine with armor stand subjects
doesn't have to be super grand, just a prominent base of operations
(i have armor stand npcs around my base yes)
I'm trying to find a catapult place so I'll stick to that for now ty 😄
glad there was something you didn't already have a version of xD
sounding more like a full on town than a small hamlet
How many days did you have on that world Sam?
Uhh I'll let you know next time I sleep 😄
Ima guess at least 2000
I just reached 800 days and it is the longest in one world lol.
3160
I'm like 79 days in my world
Few days back I started building and furnishing some different outposts in all biomes in my survival world. I've now mostly built meadows, mountain, plains, mistlands and ashlands ones but still WIP. Furnishing them with all biome related foods, feasts, gear etc.
the bees are happy
Now need to plan outposts for swamp and black forest still.
You must know the map well by now.
I try not to overly explore for future patches
Afaiks you only need to avoid the Deep north area for future patches
Phucking hell
Well not really if they add more things to older biomes too
👀
I did "ph"uck up my north biome a bit but eh
New things which change the landscape? I doubt it... it hasnt really happened previously... and takes a lot of work
Won't change the landscape but won't generate
Not sure what that means in practice 🙂
For example a Sealed Tower won't spawn if you've explored all your plains
Does it change the world creation for those location? Meaning same seed now would create different world on those old locations?
means no POI's will generate
I definitely want to do a whole new playthrough and make a new ‘main world’ once 1.0 releases 😁
Yeah I probably do that too
cant wait man. ive had like 4 worlds. every major update a new one. completely fresh. only with this ashland i continued an old one. for 1.0 def gonna start a new one
Really exited to see if they manage to sprinkle anything in throughout the game for 1.0 🤔
https://valheim.com/news/development-blog:-lighting-the-way
we’re hoping to make it a proper 1.0 package with new things to discover in early biomes as well.
old seeds completly change with each world generation
yeah in a like for like situation you'd get roughly the same amount of POI's per generation, but if a substantial amount of land was explored and unable to generate POI's, the shuffle might result in 1 or 2 less than otherwise
that land would still change to the new generation textures and still get mobs spawning however
the game was already awesome with just the first 6 biomes and every biome that gets added just makes it cooler. cant wait for deep north and to see what changes they make in earlier biomes. i hope there will be more tames added. so maybe each biome has 1. swamp, black forest and mislands are missing one atm so i hope those get 1.
technically Mistlands has 2 with the dead raiser and chickens but they don't require to be tamed
ig you could say chickens was plains too
If we’re going with technicalities, technically chickens aren’t tames 
Or wait, maybe I’m wrong on that 😅
loopholes a plenty xD but i don't think we'll get anything extra for Mistlands at least
That’s fair, Mistlands is pretty darned polished
true. black forest could get some kinda goat or sheep wich can unlock a few extra recipes with wool or something.
not sure you all get the "Iron Gate will add more content to previous biomes" from
goats or sheep would be utterly slaughtered in the black forrest
It needs no extra goodies 🥰
you would see them for like 0.1 second before a graydwarf slaps them to death
Swamp doesnt really have anything that you could tame
This isn’t Midgard - no sheep here
Put a leech trophy in your neck pond, now it’s a pet leech ❤️
#general message from here i believe
Doesnt fit into such a dead place
deer manage just fine xD
unless they are not agreesive towards them. like trolls arent agressive toward greydwarfs
ah
lord. people really take things to far in their hopium 😦
they would
but ye maybe it a stupid idea
lol
nothing would be left alive
Well cant change that 😄 i personally am more than happy with how biomes are now, but IF you guys decide to add stuff to them... I will not complain 😁
its not like 1.0 means the end of all updtaes right? or does it? im guessing thats just the full game release with new content that can be added later?
content yes. bugfixes no
nothing in the part of biomes or game changes will come after 1.0 🤔
stop draining my hopium smiffe wtf
but but
Would be bad since we plan to add Achivements for 1.0
and it's suppose not change after 1.0 since if you did it, it should become harder or easier to do
aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
We have this common saying:
"The pessimist won't get disappointed".
dang.... we getting close to the end of the new stuff than
. yall did a great job on the game! hope yall will make another in the future! for now ima enjoy the ashlands and future deep north tho 😜
Ask for suggestions to achievements from players before you implement them...
What if each heard would get a few males that could head but ? Those things can also be dangerous 🤔
we got like a billion achivement suggestions
the best one so far is "killed by tree"
Heh okay
that is funny xD
it's called "right of passage"
find all traders. unlock all recipes. defeating off each boss could be one
rite* of passage
That would be called "The rite of passage".
right of passage. Right down the rabbithole
Smiffe did you a deathless run or ever tried it
Tried but..
died xD
ye
Defeating all boss mean finishing the game
mountains
not bad going 4th biome
U broke Ur legs? Or what?
Same but at modder
Pack of wolves?
wolfs
of course
I forgot they could climb shit since we fixed the unity pathfinding issue
Smiffemeat dropped
"dumb ways to die" fall damage, drowning, tree falling on head, death by own fire.
"the end of the world" sail a ship of the edge
Building xD
sorry ill stop xD
"smoking kills": died to smoke damage
realizing you don't have a feather cape after already having used the catapult to launch yourself
My most memorable causes of death in my all deathless runs have been 1. pack of wolves (with two 1 star and stamina was drained after sprinting), 2. frost cave with multiple Cultists (forgot I was wearing Root Harnesk) and 3. accidentally angering Dvergr camp with 2 ice mages.
ima add death by own spikes to this
dying to yr own ballista
death by accidentally alerting all 31 ulvs by throwing a spear (yes the number is real)
it was like my first time after not playing valheim for 1 week, and i forgot that spears alert things
"master of giants" collect the trophy off troll, lox, berserker, abomination, golem, gyall, morgen and fallen valkyrie
"Headhunter" collect all trophys
Morgen and Fallen Valkyrie.
are you doing achievement ideas?
thx
alright sorry smiffe 😉
or if you want to brainstorm achievement ideas with other people maybe #suggestion-discussion idk
Mornin ☕🍩🌞
Yes please that channel needs more spice I have nothing to read
i put a list in there xD. just a quick list of the top of my head
I believe I was promised more cat affirmations this morning, and now am dissapointed not to see them
I don't have gif perms yet, so please accept my humble emjoi cat.

I 100% acquired it the same way
Happy Thundercats Thursday o7

!!!!!!!!! OH MY GOD
!!!
New dev blog!!!!!
OHHHHHHH MY GOD the HYPE I just felt 😮
If we cant tame the new creature i will commit warcrimes
Kinda guessing the one on the right is a starred version
Mmh
1 star only teeth
2 star +horns
Maybe
I like that we're getting back to starred variants that are different in more ways than just colors, if this is true
Yes you have my sword
And my axe
And you have my bow
I'm actually crying
and bears were not outlandish or fantasy enough but seals with horns are okay 😠
i will remember this wronging
seals>bears anyday
Wait. ||Why they so cute though||
New art WHEN
bears are among my favoritest animals and excluding them from a viking game of all things is a felony
Finally another cuty-pet
My dog needs a friend
Some time today I'm sure 😉
did my wish for more tames just come true? i hope so
Give me your mace or smth
I already have sword axe and bow 
a tamed seal doesnt sound very useful
It would be if you could get it to catch fish for you.
I am on the team asking for "a creature looking/inspired from bears". One point stand : if devs are doing that kind of creature, they won't show us before the release because that would be a dangerous enemy (example : I don't remember a post showing a morgen nor a gjall)
Seal meat
I need more excuses to not fish too
omg please !
OMG SEALLLSS!!!
yeah i still hold hope that they do the right thing 🚬
They are sea puppers, so if they were not able to play fetch with the fishes, I would be disappointed.
A still picture of Morgen was shown in one walk & talk videos and while Gjall wasn't shown directly, it was shown how one can die to its fire attacks.
dang they look so good
Also, I hate to be the one to say this, but my fellow Canadians... let's not get too hasty, boys.
You really wont eat it ?
yum yum
🎶 oh we're never gonna surviiiiiive, unless, we get a little sealy🎶
Hmm, interesting that Hervor has lox cape now. Why change it from feather cape? Maybe just fashion.
ill give you my um. MY HAMMER. thor be with us on this mission 
maybe no more frost resistance to feather cape (would sound logical btw)
Hi
We got seals let's gooo
you will make certain developer sad if you kill them
I'm saving fish now. Seals gone eat good on my seeds
Anyone running private valheim server
Meh, doesent matter much, but why would it not be logical that it has it? Feathers can be very good insulator.
seal pen inc xD
For sure someone in #1024264966712340510 🙂
Thanks man
and you will have to do it for QA just in case there is a bug on the animation 😢
Just make the meat absolutely useless in the new biome
Who? YOU?
Nature will smite you for hurting the new baby 😭
had to do it
Would be a first if a creature didn't have a needed material. Hope it's not critical.
Snowstorms 24/7
See I wonder if there fur gonna be useful also can't wait for a wall of head to appear
Wtf that was incredibly fast
Look I know people gonna do it
Nice work Samara. Faster than expected
really? i thought it was lox also in first vid
Gonna be added to the hunting lodge
New critter plushie! Needs to be a thing. 
Probably in that very biome cuz it looks great there
ah heck should I have done a spoiler tag
As a living pet right?
so stoked for DN now
Probably would have been a good idea.
For my fishing lodge yes but I know my mates they gonna hunt them to near extinction if they have any use
Always was
Won't let me edit it :C
Did the same to dear and boars found a pound of necks soon they didn't exist but any where except on are walls
Hmm, will look again but i do think it was feather
Yeah you are probably correct
Delete and repost if possible or ask smiffe to do it.
Already asked him!
You know what would be cool whales
You can force spoiler on someone elses message?
Just swimming and vibing with the seals
wasg
We got seals
Probably a moderator role can do it. Or just my assume if not.
Smiffe has moderator role.
Im mod on another server and never ever heard of such a perm
I wonder do the seals do damage or they fully peaceful
I mainly wonder how they would even fight
Well face slap
I assume ||headbutts||.
And they have horns
Magical charm look attack if i had to guess
Cant wait to get oneshoted by these small horns doing more damage than a troll smacking a whole aaahhh log in your face
See me, it's gonna be can one survive a flaming troll
no. worse
All of them
How long have they been trying to add them I wonder
add?
I would assume they were created for the deep north 🤔
um. we plan ahead what we want to add 🤔
wassg
very correct
Wait I'm in the game right? Hopefully nothing truly devious is ever gonna...
(everyone is grabbing the clubs)
@opaque sapphire ik man hard as hell
So we gonna get a color variety to them
they heim on my val til i corpse run
Make them cuter
Nah cute animals then cool monsters
there goes my message 




vision
