[nova cove]

it is a work in progress

[inner bronze]

Started a new save recently, and got to stonework, just starting the layout for a workshop connected to my small dock.

[jagged sapphire]

Mistlands looking suspiciously un-misted 🤔

[lament kelp]

i think you need more wood

[inner bronze]

There is no such thing as enough wood. I will destroy the forrest to get enough wood.

[next sierra]

Those Rainy Night Blues

[jagged sapphire]

Idk if I am supposed to tag anyone.

Did the 100 wood challenge Smiffe posted (never specified what kind of wood 😉 ) Trolls let you get Corewood with "all the tools you have before Eikthyr" 😏

Had extra so we get decorative torch, cooking station, and a sitting log to go with the windows. 4th shot is proving you can walk all the way up without getting smoked. (That's what the cross beam does, forces all smoke to go the one way)

[hallow epoch]

By a classical tradition, every city should start's from a church ( or a cathedral ) - so here a small update from how it goes so far. Small cath and a tree 🫠

[mossy cobalt]

oo oo can I play 100 wood 5 stone to

[jade lichen]

how do u make moats like this its too straight i dont see a any bump

[jagged sapphire]

When you go to an area, before you build anything, mine into the ground a couple times and it will make a square on the grid. If you just align your build to that NSEW orientation everything you dig/raise will be straight lines.

[jade lichen]

nsew?

[jagged sapphire]

Cardinal map directions?

⬆️ ⬇️ ➡️ ⬅️

[jade lichen]

ah im doing it but cant seem to do it perfectly like that guy did

[safe basin]

Best explanation i've found yet:

[barren canopy]

Finally done with my version of Cloud Ruler Temple in Valheim. 15-hour build.
I misjudged several times how big the build would end up being so I had to lengthen it twice, but the end result works and looks pretty ok. The final dimensions are 44x28. The highest point of the build is the central hall 26 stones higher than the bottom of the front towers.
Also - I've come to realize that Oblivion really cheats with dimension and all the halls of Cloud Ruler Temple in Oblivion are much bigger on the inside 😅
Finally as you can see on some of the screenshots I've fully embraced the Japaneese Hill Castle influence that Cloud Ruler Temple draws from and built a few more smaller gates and stairs in the front that need to be breached before one can reach the main gate 🏯

Better version of the front gate (damn photobombing snow 😅 ) - that's the price I pay for building in the Deep North 🌨️

[hushed hamlet]

Oh wow! That is beautifully done!

[barren canopy]

It took me a week and every time I look at it I see a lot of tiny faults that I want to correct or wish I'd done differently but in the end I'm pretty proud of the build and look forward to using it as my main base now 💜
(The lower courtyard area past the gate will soon be full of portals 😆 )

[gaunt bridge]

Trying to make an inn building for my charred fortress. Testing out some different wall textures for the main wall. Does the keg thing I've got going on look weird?

[cyan tapir]

Stunning results!!!

[fervent hornet]

Gotta love some good ol' Cloud Ruler Temple. 👌

[barren canopy]

I'd say it looks like a well-stacked brewery and it's making me thirsty for beer (especially with all the lava around I'd imagine all the guests are thirsty) so imho it works quite well 👍

[hallow epoch]

some small adjustments upcoming +2 houses at the city 🫠

[quiet oyster]

The stone cutters in Valheim drink too much mead.

[wet atlas]

Idk why but I have vibes of Anvil when I see this build. Looks great! I can't wait for final version

[hallow epoch]

Hehe 😉
You the 1st one who get's it 😏
Well - inspiration was from there ( i was watching my friends stream - and when i saw that Romanic style buildings at Anvil, it gives me that vibe - so i decide to build something close to it ) - but unfortunately this spot ( terrains lvl ) not let me get to the full scale of city - so i changed a little bit city walls curve. 🥴
And i actually expect that ppl will spot the vibes from it after i will make that small lake at north-east part of a city 🤭

[analog rampart]

The house I have with my friends.

[safe basin]

Early swamp tier survival base (first time i'm playing with fire hazards on so i went a little over the top protecting it from surtling raids)

[merry lotus]

is this mods? or how do you get the vines on the house?

[twilit ermine]

You can buy vines from the Bog Witch

[merry lotus]

oh!! omg amazing. thanks

[analog rampart]

Nope, everything is vanilla. You need to plant them just in front of the wall where you want them to grow, just like a normal plant, and after a while they attach to the wall and start growing

[haughty sage]

Build I just did 🙂

[hushed hamlet]

That looks so cozy and cute! ❤

[haughty sage]

Ty 😊💜🥰

[hasty sand]

very old version. WIP to add another harbor for the bigger ones now

[quiet oyster]

i Love Valheim but I hate the warped blocks with every ounce of my being.

[quiet oyster]

Budget storage solutions by Gork! 100 gold per each stack of 3 rings.

[quaint zinc]

How much did the rings cost you?

[wheat shale]

39 rings - 100 gold for 3 = 33 purchases

[quiet oyster]

1300 gold (right?) by budget I mean... NO IRON USED! 🙂

[wheat shale]

Yup 👍

[quiet oyster]

"Budget" storage solutions updated:

[wheat shale]

Budget…
Ehehehe…

Limited building space, or just expensive 😂

[quiet oyster]

I put budget in quotes.🤪

I have to install all of ValheimRAFT just to get this very useful ladder. Wondering (outloud) why its not a part of the game!

[idle wolf]

[ocean finch]

The Great Pyramid of the Plains (WIP). Does anyone know of a larger SINGLE building built in Valheim? (Please DM me if so, please). It covers more than 8 acres, enough for a modern convention center. Encloses over 1,000,000 m3 - big enough to accommodate over 8,000 average rooms. Perimeter is almost 1/2 mile around. I used over 10,000 iron beams, so was built in creative mode. Unfortunately it's dimensions exceed Valheim's graphics draw distance for structures so some view angles don't show everything!

[hallow epoch]

Plus 2 more houses and one of them just an ugly square 🥴 - hate squares 😭

[tropic idol]

this is looking amazing! i love it!

[quiet oyster]

I designed a new bed (they'll be on sale Memorial day!)

[light edge]

Also red ones from ashlands

[ashen girder]

anyone here use plan build ?

havin issues making the mod work tryna find some help

[jagged sapphire]

#mods-issues

[quiet oyster]

That is beautiful. Any chance you could show some interior shots? Also... are there any mods? I'm not familiar with the wall pieces on the top layer of your wall. I love how you used the stone vertical beams for the ramparts.

[safe basin]

That looks fantastic. Love all the details.

[quaint zinc]

Do you mean the outer wood walls?

Because I think those are corewood poles and beams

With a wood beam through the middle

[elder phoenix]

I can show you the castle courtyard, I won't show you the other rooms yet because they are not finished, but I intend to finish them tomorrow. When I finish I will show you the other chambers

[quaint zinc]

Have you ever tried using an unlit hot tub to simulate water in a well? Just cover up the exhaust with a corewood pillar

[wheat shale]

Finally finished the exterior for my ashlands base

[safe basin]

Basically the same way you did: build a frame over it.
You can also hang banners in front of it as curtains since you can walk through them.

[hallow epoch]

Alrighty - city almost done. Left only harbor part and some buildings near it. So we getting to final stage 🦦

[desert tendon]

#mods-screenshots

[hallow epoch]

it depends

[hallow epoch]

Some screenshots of the streets as well - even counting that this is still pretty raw pictures 🫠

[brittle marten]

🙂‍↕️

[stray pasture]

Absolutely phenomenal work

[dense bluff]

This outpost needs a name! Odin has been spotted many times in this area, almost as if he favours this region. There also are a lot more than average abandoned structures, as if many others had come before us through Odin's sign

Naturally, this outpost is also dedicated to him 😛

[haughty sage]

All that pops into my mind is Odin's Favour since you wrote that, and I can't think of anything else

[old minnow]

BEFORE I POST.
This will be a long series of pictures. Please do not take this as spam it’s just a lot I want to present. Along with these pictures I will tell my story of valheim. Any of you are welcome to DM me for info on the server. Anyways welcome to Bridgetown.

This started off as a dream of mine. I had firs loaded up valheim on a buddies server. I had played building survival games before but this game was different. I seen a bridge and I thought “ what if I built a house under there?” And one day I expanded on that idea. Why build a house when you can have a city.

So for anyone that’s not a citizen of Bridgetown this is the farthest you will ever go into Bridgetown. Past a secret entrance this is what you will see.

In the feast hall there’s carpet with a secret underneath. If you find it you’ll find Bridgetown dock.

Going back to this room. If you head right youll go straight to the feasting hall

[old minnow]

This project is one of few currently being done and ENTIRELY ON CONSOLE VANILLA VALHEIM. A proper city is in the works just beyond Bridgetown. I’ve learned a lot building this and my buddies that helped with the bridge itself are helping with the future project. This has been worked on since November of last year and considering I almost died two months ago it’s a miracle it ever got finished. Anyone that is wanting to join this server it’s on console all you have to do is msg me on here or Xbox. My GT is in my bio. Cheers!

[brittle marten]

Smooth landing 🫠

[next sierra]

Tea and Crumpets anyone?☕️

[old minnow]

Coming soon👀👀👀

Creating shipyard based on references ⚓

[frail axle]

Y'all make such cool things. Good work everyone.

I built my first black marble base. First time really working with it too, so I'm feeling pretty good about it. Left some open space to put the Mistland crafting stations once we find the pieces for them.

[tawdry marsh]

My very simple base design

[brave thunder]

Work in progress as I replace the old stone bridge/towers as my Drakkar was not up for mast reduction surgery.

[pure epoch]

Vanilla but you're using console commands to float around?

[wooden flower]

starting to come along nicely

[hallow epoch]

The one who knows - they knows 😉

[brittle marten]

İt looks great 🫠

[hallow epoch]

Meanwhile working on that castle on background - that thing is just boring 🫠 But no other choices we have 😅 What was started - have to be done 🥶

[quiet oyster]

LOVE THIS!

[tropic idol]

Looking so good! I’m watching this one closely.

[old minnow]

Yes? That’s vanilla.. running the base game with no mods is vanilla bud😂😂😂

That’s like saying just because your on creative in minecraft it’s no longer vanilla Minecraft 😂. I took advantage of being able to fly so I could take pictures.

[pulsar quail]

It's not.

[old minnow]

Not you again.😂😂😂 it is tho. Vanilla means base game no mods

[old minnow]

I used it to fly. Cope.😂😂😂

[pulsar quail]

I never said there was anything wrong with it.

[mellow osprey]

New addiction, asking chat GPT to make my Valheim screenshots realistic

[old minnow]

@pulsar quail he was posting his build

[mellow osprey]

I'm always getting debatable wrong channel emoji responses on these in here lol I prefer to live on that cutting edge 🦾

It brings me a morally questionable satisfaction to troll the type of people who would nitpick something like that, lol

[old minnow]

There’s certain people that just need to get real tbh

[elfin oar]

@mellow osprey @old minnow I don't think Building screenshot channel is for chatGPT content tho 🤔
not sure where it should go tho to be honest

[old minnow]

It’s a build and a ai realistic version of the valheim build it should definitely be with the build and the build should be in this channel

[elfin oar]

there is.. like lacking of a good channel for it 🤔

I like the picture, that's not the problem. but where it could be posted to be on topic 😄

[old minnow]

Idek unless u add an ai channel💀

Maybe just valheim art or build art

[elfin oar]

yeah. something like that

the thing is that alot of our developers are against AI art overall since AI usually steal content 😓

[mellow osprey]

Make no mistake, first image is my own creation. People who wanna focus on the semantics of channel cleansing, only look at the first photo.

People who are focused on the art of it, look at both photos. lol

[elfin oar]

I know 😄

hence I said I like it

[mellow osprey]

I mean in general don't worry @elfin oar ❤️

[pulsar quail]

That's not my focus. My focus is on helping people.

[mellow osprey]

I think we're splitting hairs a bit though, is the purpose of this specific channel not to show off the art of a valheim build? And to generate discussion around it, I suppose

If i had posted just the chat gpt generated image I could see the angle but its pretty clearly a directly related showcase involving a valheim build, and its realistic interpretation counterpart. I think if we start drawing lines in the sand about it we kind of pull back from the original intention in the first place, to create and discuss art

[pulsar quail]

It's to show off builds in the game. That's it.

[mellow osprey]

Why show off builds in the game, answer me that good sir

[old minnow]

It’s subjective tbh. Taking a screenshot and ai copying that isn’t stealing anyone’s art or job. It’s not something that you could do on your own. If u wanted a realistic image of your game ( I personally love the art style you guys chose. A lot of people are trying to be as realistic as possible and the retro is really nice) it’s impossible even if you paint it that’s not gonna be realistic enough for most. So ai is the only way to captivate certain needs

[mellow osprey]

What is its purpose at its core

[elfin oar]

yeah. but AI channel would open up for all kind of AI 🤔

and sadly, people don't read channel rules, pinned posts or channel topics 😄

[old minnow]

No your focus is on trying to micro manage a discord that’s not you. All I’m saying about it.

[mellow osprey]

Right. And when we divide and divide and divide into categories, we microanalyze it to the point where its a chore

[elfin oar]

I wouldn't mind a valheim AI-art of your builds. since it would be pretty cool

[old minnow]

I’ve been seeing it for months

[pulsar quail]

It really, really isn't.

[elfin oar]

whatever derek does or don't do. isn't something to bring up 🤔

so I would much apritiate if you two don't go into "what does derek do" conversation

[mellow osprey]

I wonder if its because chat GPT is controversial and a buzzword 🤔

[elfin oar]

the controversy is that all AI will steal art if you ask it to generate a picture

it never makes it's own

[mellow osprey]

Gotcha gotcha

I could get philosophical for hours on that but won't to spare people's ears lol. I think when we covet art in the first place, we're approaching it wrong from its very core. But I also believe artists should be paid. So its tough

[elfin oar]

you basicly ask a artist to do something, and don't pay for it 😦

it's another thing if you are the artist, and ask for AI to do something with your own art

[mellow osprey]

Which is what I did, yeah

[elfin oar]

indeed

but as for a channel, people wouldn't understand that's the point of it

[old minnow]

That’s true

[mellow osprey]

But then I wonder, why did I do it? I did it to marvel at it, which I think should be the purpose for any art in general. Not to idolize the creator of it. To enjoy the creation

[old minnow]

I seen that😂

[mellow osprey]

We are here to create and witness beauty, not to covet it and wrap it in hubris and ego

But artists should be respected appreciated and paid. Wonder where the middle ground in that lies

[elfin oar]

if artists uses AI on their on art I guess 🤔

the problem is that it derails so fast 😄

[mellow osprey]

Totally

And its back to like you said, its pretty subjective

[elfin oar]

as soon as you do "take this picture, but make it like this guys style". AI steals 😦

[mellow osprey]

That's true. But when you're an artist, I feel like once you release something to the world, its no longer yours. You have to let go of the creation. But that's subjective too so meh lol. Cause then copyright, etc

[elfin oar]

as long as the artist gets paid (if they want that of course)

[mellow osprey]

Credit where credit is due yeah

[old minnow]

Interesting reading this as an artist. Fair but unfair . Life’s unfair so it balances out

[mellow osprey]

True and its about balance and moderation in the end. BUT NOT DISCORD MODERATION! xD

[elfin oar]

it's hard enough to moderate #screenshots

and other media channels

[mellow osprey]

Totally yeah, I'll refrain from the taking my builds and having chat gpt make them realistic image stuff in here but I'm happy to have had the convo about it. I love debating about art

And seeing what it did with the image, how it changed some things around, has inspired me to go in and refine that build a bit to match that. So I got a lot out of it artistically personally

[elfin oar]

I would totally edit your ingame world after what the AI did 🤔

[mellow osprey]

I like that it emitted the 3 docks for the one big one, and made that little jutting out pathway-dock. It also made things better proportioned than I had designed them originally. AI is wild lol

[mellow osprey]

#build dump ❤️

[quaint zinc]

How did you get the banners to fly sideways in the 3rd picture?

[desert tendon]

mods...

That's why #mods-screenshots is a constant reminder...

[mellow osprey]

Oops, minor slip up there then. My bad. I think this is possibly too strict of an atmosphere/space for me to wanna showcase my builds now that I'm thinking about it. Will refrain in the future. Cheers 🍻

[hallow epoch]

Keep in mind. Sara Connor - watching you making friendship with Chat GPT 😅

[mellow osprey]

I apologize to it constantly, I don't want it marking me as an enemy when it rises up

[ocean saffron]

The beserkers Den

[old minnow]

Can I add u?

[viral nexus]

That will only make you more of a target, they don't want cats, they want dogs

[brittle marten]

Made it look more fancier

[jagged yoke]

Excited to fight within Ash ❎
Excited to access all build parts ✅
...
Anyways, I did some building :D
Intergrated build with Grausten, Ashwood, Tar and more

[iron parrot]

bro this is sick dude, seriously man. awesome and the chat gpt thing blew my mind

[tulip thistle]

a little cozy place on the slopes to the sea

[tropic idol]

After 2 weeks of work, I'm finally done with this 1 to 1 scale cathedral. Standing at 106x62x94 meters, this gargantuan church includes the main sanctuary, priest's pulpit, two confessionals, a choir alter, a full kitchen, priest's quarters, storage room and study rooms. Send me a DM and I'd be more than happy to come by and drop it in your world. Just know it will take about an hour to build fully.

[hallow epoch]

looking good - but "Advanced rotation"........ - you know where it should go right?

[old minnow]

I fully credit this build to @hybrid thorn it was his design

[old minnow]

@hybrid thorn this is a boar farm building that I will post more pictures of when I get home

[old minnow]

Looks good!

[gilded wraith]

Hello Everyone,
I would like to share my latest project i finally finished. Its base inside Sealed Tower.
Whole video will be posted in self-promotion.
Thank you for all your likes/dislikes and comments.

[minor inlet]

looks pretty good but how could u build inside the sealed tower is there any mode or command ?

[hallow epoch]

Should i pull this guy to #mods-screenshots or @desert tendon you will do it?

[wheat shale]

Pull to modded please

[hollow shard]

small but it houses a portal for my purposes, a flax and barley farm

[iron parrot]

Beautiful build man, can tell it took a lot of work. You put in a lot of details, good job!

[charred halo]

Male living space

[old minnow]

Current farm fortress being constructed within the city👀👀 reasons for such heavy reinforcements is because out of everything you have, crops are what you need to survive and thrive

[jade lichen]

Sealed tower is just a building i think, not a cave or dungeon

[wheat shale]

Modded - you cannot build in a sealed tower as it counts as a dungeon in vanilla
“A mystical force stops you” is the message you get

[jade lichen]

oh

[elfin oar]

Since the sealed tower is indistructable, we had to lock them somehow to prevent the player from abusing them into a super-safe base 😄

[lament kelp]

so the mystical force was you!

[elfin oar]

yes 🤔

me and a collegue + designers decided it

[desert tendon]

there's a command to build in dungeons so using a mod for that it's both unnecessary and redundant

[unreal portal]

this is my house i built it took me so long but i really like it. is there any tips on how i could make it better

[minor inlet]

Looks good maybe rotating the walls

[unreal portal]

is there a way to do that? instead of rebuidling the whole house?

[minor inlet]

Sry didnt see ur message in time . Ill just suggest deconstracting and rebuilding it 1 by 1 , so you dont need to remove the whole roof

[jade lichen]

What command

[minor inlet]

Setkey dungeonbuild

I use it sometimes if i cant find a flatten place to design or test a house so i just use chair glitch or burial chamber and got to the top

Or maybe fly faster to go through the walls

[lunar thorn]

Idea for a small fish selling stall for marketplaces. Frostners put under the ice (crystal) to give the breezing cold feeling.

[visual smelt]

Add either another inverted wall layer outside or decorate with wooden beams.

[agile obsidian]

I know it's overdone, but here's my attempt at a stave-church with an original and my blueprints. I think I got the proportions right, but the walls look kind of bare
Could anybody suggest, how I might improve it? One idea might be to use Xs instead of walls for a more open feeling

I also tried dragon heads, but they are too big, so I prefer the wooden X
Also, I reached the max height even with 4m log-poles in the middle
#building-discussion message

[gritty meteor]

you could try adding a bit of depth in the walls or overhangs on some roofs

[agile obsidian]

Thanks! Now I'm back at the drawing board trying to make overhangs and the resulting challenges work ^^

[old minnow]

But WHYYYYYY😂 I just want to have a tower base that can go higher then normal

[old minnow]

What command and does it work on console??

[desert tendon]

#building-screenshots message

i assume yes

[old minnow]

it doesnt. Why does the console edition blow so hard

[pulsar quail]

Huh? Console commands work on consoles, sure.

[raven wagon]

Having built five Stave churches, I commend your efforts. It's something that's taken time to get correct, and I don't have much for tips beyond to keep practicing. Unfortunately, this isn't pics from the corrected version, but it's based on Borgund, and I do recommend making the interior look as much the part as the exterior.

[minor inlet]

Looks so good

[royal thorn]

Big thanks!

[minor inlet]

I love building but im bad on it XD

[royal thorn]

Valheim is great for building

[minor inlet]

Yes i know

[royal thorn]

My type of game

[minor inlet]

Ye me too , i like survival games

[hybrid thorn]

I mean, sure, you can't build in the sealed tower, but you can build off it.

[hybrid thorn]

I'm so satisfied with how this little bit of circular roof worked out:

[hasty sand]

experimenting for sidePort for nbigger boat....

[hybrid thorn]

Wow. That build would make for a truly spectacular slideshow on my PC.

[hasty sand]

its only 34k instances

[hybrid thorn]

tis stunning. Fantastic work!

[hybrid thorn]

The time, effort and attention to detail put into these builds is off the scale, I tip my hat good sir/lady.

[hasty sand]

thank covid. these are all 2y old. just came back to test/try the new materials

[hybrid thorn]

Grausten is amazing, look forward to seeing what you make of it

[hasty sand]

graustein is for rebuilding the 2 towers of LOTR xD

[hybrid thorn]

Now that you mention it, Ashlands does have a very Mordor vibe..

[hasty sand]

graustein is trickier than i expected. has anyone made any statues out of graustein yet?

[hybrid thorn]

A lack of 1m height pieces make it awkward sometimes. I'm sure they have but none come to mind. I'm certainly no Botticelli thats for sure.

[twin flower]

(for any spectators) how to make alter of smiffe, create corewood log gazebo, hang a greydwarf shaman or trophy over a bonfire in a cage.

[tall trail]

How’d you get a bonfire with a roof over it?

[rustic night]

It had a weird roof pattern that a spot near the middle needed a floor peice

[halcyon lark]

I don't build very often but I need confidence is this a good starter house?

[nocturne gyro]

i think it looks pretty 😄 with a proper chimney system and all, so much better than my first home where i kept smoking myself to death

the beehive looks like a mailbox too, cute!

[hybrid thorn]

Integrated fireplace and chimney, pretty porch, pleasing variation of roof shapes, overhangs giving a sense of depth, nice use of lighting, windows to break up the dreaded brown box.... Hell yeah! I'd say you're off to a great start!

[steady solar]

Are you proud of what you built? If they answer is yes. Then yes its a good building.

[viral nexus]

Very cozy, and looks nice. Seems good to me

[fervent hornet]

Much better than my first building ever.

[wheat shale]

Less discussion - post more screenshots of builds

#mods-screenshots

[royal cargo]

So I have a bunch of hours in valheim. Haven’t played in a couple of years but when I played I never progressed super far.

I say that because I saw the screenshot and got excited they added books to place on a bookshelf. So they haven’t? That’s a mod?

I am thankful they added gameplay sliders. I wonder when they did that because I used to download mods to do things like take ores through portals and gather rates and such lol

[halcyon lark]

First time attempting a tree house for the swamp, it is so difficult to get it to not fall apart 😭 But this is how its gonna look for now (very cramped) How do I get a fireplace in it for the rested buff?

[fallow trench]

You can either use stone as a floor to set up a campfire on, or place a campfire directly on a branch.

[tropic idol]

Looks fantastic! Just place a campfire on the ground under the treehouse and you’ll be good to go. Cheers!

[broken elk]

Another progress update on my mining and entire mountain out build

[broken elk]

would this look better if I change the shape and height of the connected building on the left or should I do it symmetrical

[misty fractal]

I think asymmetry creates interest. When everything is a repeating pattern the eye stops looking

[hybrid thorn]

Love the theme, beautiful.

[misty fractal]

Thanks, based on visit or just the pics?

[hybrid thorn]

Oh, just the pics, I didnt realise it was available for viking holidays

[misty fractal]

Reception is pretty icy and the lodgings are non-existant but there are a lot of other builds on the Free Build World server (not allowed to post a link to their Discord)

[sturdy musk]

new south gate

[hallow epoch]

[hallow epoch]

some progress ( what to be frank - rly not that much ) 🫠

[visual smelt]

Hanging braziers is what I usually use on these kind of builds.

[limpid rivet]

i thought my house looked cool

holy smokes

but im lowkey happy with how my house came out

[grim turtle]

Missing my old build and contemplating to get back on Val to build more mountain top homes - Just really waiting for the North update to be released =/

[left urchin]

my small dock for my boat.

[hallow epoch]

small part of the right side of that dock. Left one thing to build there and gonna get to the final stage ( castle )

[hallow epoch]

Well i believe that is pretty much done. Castle done as well. This take like a 2 month to complete. This is all on hammer mod ( whatsoever ) - i just done with farming recourses after hit 8k hours. So that's basically it. Enjoy 🌻

[hallow epoch]

just for comparing how it was started and how it ends 😅

[raw jetty]

You should upload the save file

[hallow epoch]

what's for ?

[next sierra]

Just started building and it somehow came out like this😅

Roof time

[raw jetty]

So others can use it

[prisma linden]

First ever world! Here's my workshop

[high iris]

i have zero idea how this thing has enough stability to stay standing

[hallow epoch]

🤦‍♂️ 🤦 🤦‍♀️

[wet atlas]

God damn, it's gorgeous

[hallow epoch]

ty man - to be frank everything inside is empty ( i did that a lot before. But nobody cares about interior 😅 , so ). But anyways i build it that way that you can live there. And except 2 houses - in every single other one is a well placed chimney for fireplace. Also there is a properly builded staircase from a big tower - what leads to the city wall, and can walk around it with no problem ( everything is accessible ). Same for a Castle. There is also a seecret passage leading out of that mansion ( what you can buy at Oblivion ) outside the city walls. As well there is also a secret way out of the castle what leads to the karve behind the castle 😅

And also at current state it's something around 38-39k instances. So if adjust some interior to the houses ( to make look "Well done" ) it will be around 55k at least.

[wet atlas]

Yeah, it's insane when builds not just decorative but usable.

[hallow epoch]

well i have my full fledge castle at my 1st world. Not creative - all farmed - and there everything like that, but it takes not a 40 days like this time to build up everything - but a 11 month, from a 1st block to the last part. And there 64 or 65 k instances.......

[worldly crest]

Here's my construction, inspired by Viking longhouses and enhanced by the possibilities offered by the game. It was all done in the vanilla version of Valheim on a game in creative mode. Since I've only posted screenshots of the exterior in the new “build-of-the-month” channel, I'll take this opportunity to add the interior ones here. 🙂

[wary venture]

Built my first ever farm only to sadly realise that the treetops count as blocking the sky. At least this picture will immortalise the idea before I most the farm.

[minor inlet]

U can use it to breed boars

[wary venture]

Ooh that's a good idea, I can still have my nice looking tree farm then. Just for a different purpose. TY!

[buoyant haven]

Been working on my mountain spa resort, still some work to do, but overall happy with it!

I did fall to my death once trying to get a pic lol

[wary venture]

Are we thinking stone border, exposed stone floors or wood panelling? Or any even better suggestions I am all ears to. Stone and corewoord are my highest tier building materials.

[spark fog]

Well done. Love the design and the cozy vibe in the black Forest

[fierce badge]

Horrid flashbang for you all. I genuinely tried...

[hollow path]

I like big builds and I cannot lie

[cloud coral]

Good start!:)

[fathom peak]

I call it....... THE BLOCK

[mossy current]

Looks like modern architecture.

[fathom peak]

gonna build something weird around it probably, idk I just felt like making a box

[mossy current]

Honestly all of my builds are just boxes next to boxes on top of boxes. I honestly want to see a build challenge where rectangles and squares are not allowed.

[fathom peak]

I will never understand

[gloomy crag]

Any ideas on a house i can build here?

[winter barn]

once upon a time., machiculations...

[royal thorn]

Holy flip that terraforming,anyways build a vertical T shaped house with a spiral staircase

[halcyon lark]

I tried making another house, this time bigger, hows it turned out?

[ripe island]

About to take this down and build a new one, like the wooden thing before it. I have fond memories and I took screen shots but this time to move on and build a greater and more splendorous castle of Ratslanding! For the glory of Ratatoskr!

[ornate drift]

Built this 3 story castle while playing with my wife. I wanted to impress her so I build most of this over 3 days before we played again. She likes shooting at things off the balconies... What do you think?

[quiet halo]

Anyone want to play chess?

[long apex]

interior looks good but exterior could look a bit less blocky

[hallow epoch]

Congrats buddy 😉 🏆 🤝

[worldly crest]

Thank you ^^

[near seal]

i built a ufo cottage in the forest, not done but I'm not sure when i'll be satisfied that it's 'done'. I didn't use any floor or roof pieces

[ornate drift]

Thank you for the advice. I actually didn’t even think of that because of the castle look I was going for but I should make some spots more aesthetically pleasing

[long apex]

add some support beams under the balcony sections too

[hallow epoch]

Building up a new house on the road to the future city ( another one lol 😅 )

and the one what's go after - deeper at the forest 🌲

[light edge]

first tower of my base done

[rustic night]

a house the devs would approve of [joke]

[keen bay]

Before I start making the W A L L Should I add more detail to this or is it good enough, any building tips that the veteran builders can share thanks

[hollow trout]

idk the building was so intricate, here i am building shoeboxes and derelict structures from remnants of past Vikings

[digital goblet]

I like the amount of detail exactly where it is, you inspired me on what to do on a wall that extends off my new castle now actually.

[dense bluff]

the first floor interior of my main house is finished! 👀

[alpine ridge]

realized I posted in wrong channel earlier so here is the kitchen. #screenshots message
Rebuilt and modified one of the longhouses to serve as a bedroom/-house. It used to have a lot more spikes on the roof but I decided that architecture would look too hostile.

anyone else that likes to shift the roof pieces 1x1 meter diagonally to get just a little bit of overhang in all directions?

[viral nexus]

I just put 1x1 floor pieces out from the top edge of the wall, i like the way it looks better than getting it in the center of the roof panel

[alpine ridge]

I do something similar, I use the 1m horizontal wood beam pieces to “snap it to the grid”.
Different method similar result I guess

[tropic idol]

Footbridges

[royal thorn]

always do that unless im making the viking tip thingy

[hollow trout]

Shes nothing fancy, but shes mine.

armor buddy - armor

[opal wharf]

re-upload with vanilla

[hallow epoch]

but we know that armor still there 🤭

[opal wharf]

nope ;') vanilla armour now

[hallow epoch]

but we know 🤣

[opal wharf]

Is this not about the build instead of some armour wich was on display? Like what are you trying to say? 😛

[hallow epoch]

it's just silly reference to Family guy ( kid's don't get it - but we all know what is about 😏 🤭 )

[hallow epoch]

but the house itself looks neat

[grim turtle]

nothing special but all ways like building an enclosed wall aka raising ground then building a wall around from raids - eventually my nice house which will be connected to the wall will take place

[random pewter]

A stroll through Asgard, we start at the Nexus Portal from the Ashlands. First stop to the right is the mages tower. Let us gaze at the dock below from the top of the tower. Then the farm to the immediate left which leads to the forge. Then a quick peek into the forge and another outside glance on the other side. Finally we come to the long house and a quick look inside where we feast and room for rest. The final shots are from the docks main entrance to the island fortress. Enjoy 🙂

[cobalt heart]

Some building frame thing!
Not too happy with those 4 pieces on the underside of the roof, does anyone know how to make it more seamless?

[lean wind]

dude, its building

[sick hound]

I thikn they should add a 'second' channel right below #building-screenshots as in "building-modded-screenshots" at this point. The #mods-screenshots is often and mostly only things related to the mods/modding themselves, not buildings built by others who want to share.
I don't care how/if an awesome building is heavily modded. It should be a showcase of a building.

[pulsar quail]

We don't need another building channel. Just for people to use the ones we have correctly.

[sick hound]

I think many people miss the mods-screenshots' channel because, like past me, assumed that, based on the #mods-screenshots and #mods-issues , the images were only for people who are developing/helping with mods.

[pulsar quail]

Fortunately the channel topic here makes it clear.

[gaunt bridge]

My kitchen tunnel is shaping up!

[outer totem]

Very cool! Is the kitchen built yet?

[gaunt bridge]

I've made space for the room but haven't done anything to it first. This is all in an Ashlands fortress so I'm blocking out buildings before I'm doing detailwork

[hallow epoch]

Nah bro - it's whole different title XD

[wet atlas]

Rly? My fault then. But it looks like Oblivion castle for me

[hallow epoch]

Well it's not 😅 And it's a mage tower ( small one 🤭 )

@wet atlas I gonna give some intel - if you know who the Xardas is - it might help 😉

[wet atlas]

Oh sure. Now I see

[mossy current]

I know this is the screenshot thread, am I able to share videos as well?

[hallow epoch]

why i don't see "fachwerk" ? If you call it "gothic style" ? 🤔

[drowsy root]

That would not make sense bc the cabin was fully built with woods instead of bricks

[hallow epoch]

same as making no sense to calling it that way that you call it 😉

[drowsy root]

Well say as you like. It's not a real building it's a game. Not worth discussing.

[hallow epoch]

It's just a wooden house man ( and it's not about "building at this game" - it's just about give the right names to the right things 🤝 )

[drowsy root]

Are you a mad cat literally?

Bc that's how u name urself

[hallow epoch]

you finally get it 😉

[drowsy root]

And you missed the point

[hallow epoch]

lol - i'm not the one who call wooden house a "gothic house " 😅

[drowsy root]

It's hard to believe one got time to argue about the name of a building in a game. Well I don't so bye

[hallow epoch]

that's what i'm talking about 🤭

[pulsar quail]

Well, this was a stupid argument.

[elder blade]

I built giant fortifications around my base, but i fear they may be too giant. I'm getting 21fps and i have a decent system. if i want to play with others, should i just remove the walls entirely?

The mansion itself is not that much of a deal, but the fortifications around it made the fps cry out in help

It's more storage than basic chests, they're a bit taller but you can still do it stacked up

[vast peak]

Only 2tall though

[viral nexus]

As far as i know that's as good as it gets, if you're running out of space, either build a bigger storage facility or leave stuff behind

You'll probably need corewood beams or ironwood beams

[verbal cliff]

Just recently got the game and I've reached the Bronze Age as of yesterday.
Mostly just been grinding away at that (ugh) with an ugly set up in the Black Forest, but I wanted to take some sanity recovery time and build something functional yet pretty back home. Stumbled upon a fence design I quite like just be experimenting and just wanted to share :)

For the most part I was just working with normal fences and then outlining them with stone, but I think for some more importanr builds I'll start using that core wood fence.

I wanna make a bigger plot of farmland with the new fence design soon tbh...

[lavish cave]

the farmland looks really cool nice job

[verbal cliff]

Thank you!
I got the game, like, 4 days ago, but I've come to love the building way more than I thought I would.

I'm just wondering what sorts of new designs I can go for now that I have bronze.

[viral nexus]

I like using the corewood for cabins
You'll get lots of new materials to build with as you go along as well, to make bigger better builds

[keen bay]

At the moment you're only able to work with wood but after blackforest you'll be able to work with stone aswell

Also try to compress the crops as neatly and tightly as you can so you can farm more in that plot

[verbal cliff]

Yeah, my friend did tell me about the Stone Cutter.
I think that's when I'll repurpose my current house (in screenshot) and make something a bit bigger in the same area.

[verbal cliff]

Yeeeee, I just didn't have many seeds.
That was my first harvest.

[keen bay]

You're good for now, after blackforest you're gonna need more space than that

Especially for the portals and other work stations

[verbal cliff]

I've got space to work with.

got a dedicated server and me and a buddy are making a cenral communal outpost for players to all meet up for bosses and stuff, it started out as a very uneven island barely above sea level (wish i had a ss from before we started but i forgot), we teraformed it to raise it up and make it more rectangular, flattened it out, and we've finally started construction. been at it for 3-4 days now, most of the time has been making/remaking floors and walls to see what we like best.

[keen bay]

Man I need to up my building in my mistland base this is quite the view

I wish dvergr buildings like those black marbles with copper supports are buildable

[whole current]

you can with a mod named MoreVanillaBuildPrefabs, you can remove the mod and all the pieces will still work as they do in vanilla

[keen bay]

But I dont wanna make it modded

[whole current]

fair enough

[keen bay]

wish they were a vanilla thing you can build yourself

[whole current]

agreed i guess in time we will see

more shots of it so far, its a wip and far from done; i think i might have gone too big

this will eventually be a dvergr vault or an armory, i havent decided yet

[keen bay]

I like the perimeter wall design

[vague whale]

It's a bit too late to admit that now. But that's ballsy as F for someone to build one in mist-land.

enough workbenchs and most things will leave you be

[raven wagon]

Best I can offer you for player accessible build pieces is a combination of the Dvergr lights paired with the wood stool. A bit on the tricky side to set up, but is at least vanilla.

Quite the expensive detail but I'll take inspiration from this when I start making my perimeter wall

In that setting yeah not a problem but in a normal world it'll be annoying to refill

still good build looks cozy

[hallow epoch]

i afraid to ask - why do you need a roof under the roof ? 🤭

[keen bay]

It just looked nice to me so I kept it

[hallow epoch]

well that's valid 🤝 Not that part where you like it - but there where you keep it XD

[keen bay]

The reason for roof for the chest is so that they wouldn't decay since there were still no roof mid build

[hallow epoch]

i'm just joking buddy - don't take it seriously

[keen bay]

I know

plus its just a build nothing special

[hallow epoch]

that's the whole point 😉

[muted lagoon]

how many portals? 🤔

[winged wadi]

well over 80 portals- 12 for each biome. there’s about 7 floors and each floor has 12 portals, each floor separates the biomes

[winged wadi]

i used root07 in the spawn commands and created a ground block all around the tower at the base of each pillar ever 12 pillars up or so. very time consuming.

that is awesome 🤔

[verbal cliff]

Now I just have to do the interior!

[verbal cliff]

Still some work to go, but we're getting there!

Maybe I should put the ladder on the outside of the building...

[verbal cliff]

!!!

[keen bay]

WHY IS THERE A FISH HERE?

[whole current]

storms or high wind will usually do it

[keen bay]

Land fish really

[edgy falcon]

Don't jump!

[rapid jetty]

can someone post a storage room designs?

[viral nexus]

Just search "storage" in this channel, there's several people have already posted

[shell fable]

any sugestions?

[vague grotto]

You can fit three of the small chests on one 2x2 floor piece with walls around it. If you do that, you get way more storage.

[shell fable]

I wan thinking that but im no day 7😩

[hallow epoch]

just a small upgrade to a necromancer room 🕯️

[viral nexus]

Since you're on day 7, I'll say burn a piece of boar meat purposely and you'll get an item to help with organization of your chests

[shell fable]

will do

[raven wagon]

@shell fable You'll encounter more rugs as you play, so that'll help, as will additional build pieces. Once you get to the plains, making decorative floors REALLY opens up, but even with stone, once you have iron, there are things you can experiment with.

[verbal cliff]

Experimenting with a simple wall for my Plains Farm.
Not too high effort, but just enough to keep what's inside safe for long enough to give me time to react :D

[shell fable]

yea, I have played throught the game before and im excited for the long table and the chairs

[fiery bluff]

Ultimate base build

[keen bay]

The progression of my main base from first base > second base > my final base design/layout

[robust kettle]

pete, the polevaulting pike 🥸

[dull gorge]

me and @tribal forge built a manor today

[civic wren]

I ended up building my house too small, still better than the one I previously lived in.

[civic wren]

This looks ugly.

[vague grotto]

looks fine to me

[dire python]

Nah I getcha, the vertical repeating stone texture is the one gripe I have with this game

[hybrid thorn]

Use the grass option on the cultivator to get rid of that repeating pattern. Will look a lot better.

[hallow epoch]

just look at that - making me laugh so hard 🤣

[daring egret]

I like the bridge but overusing the shift key still feels odd after all these years. I still got hope for a small patch with new build pieces. We demand bigger stone arches!

[fiery bluff]

sides always look strange after terraforming but if you will put grass on it
it will get back to normal texture than just pavement on the middle of ramp and it should look better
agin if you put pavement on sides it will look strange so you need to aim to the middle
or even start from pavement and than take grass and make sides with it

[digital goblet]

Gonna stop being depressed and actually post something here lol

That's my goal today

I have stuff, I just gotta screen shot ;-;

[quartz wraith]

First build I’ve ever made! Any tips on what to work on?

[royal thorn]

Your roof trim is rotting,someone on this server already told me a fix to that - just make the bars and floors 2 meter so half of them are protected by the roof therefore not rotting

[quartz wraith]

I finished a small village, might expamd it later.

[quartz wraith]

how do you make curves like that? I just got a stonecutter so i might not have access to all of the stone things.

[daring egret]

creating snap points like this

[raven wagon]

I'd say "Don't remind me.", but...

[undone beacon]

hey any1 here that has some cool inspiration for Docks/Harbours? Not too much end-game builds as I only have wood and the stone starter pieces 😄

[viral nexus]

Just search for it, plenty in this channel I've seen before

[tropic idol]

Camping in the Plains is not for the faint of heart.

[jolly parcel]

My "secret" Chest room 😁

[digital goblet]

first base (I use some balance mods like Bronze Stonecutter but I post here because I don't use modded build items)

[tropic idol]

A simple version of a burial chamber minecart.

[steel marsh]

Anyone else like corewood? 😅
No?
Just me? Ok..
all vanilla btw

[vagrant raven]

That looks awesome!

[clever turret]

thats actually quite interesting.

[south sinew]

Love the pumpkin face on the tower!

[edgy falcon]

I love this!

[inner current]

Thanks!

[south sinew]

Did you build this organically or did you preplan this all?

[inner current]

The only plan was to make a large treehouse base.

[south sinew]

Sweet, still on the bucket list for me

I got to recreate those hanging parts with the potions.

[tribal forge]

amazing build ngl

[daring egret]

castle grayskull / carisbrooke castle inspired gatehouse

[fast heart]

love the appreciation

[jolly parcel]

I present you my both home : Mains base at meadow and the other in Ashland (needed big mud and marble wall for this biome 🤣 )
Vanilla, but raid off, i was lazy to build big def structure around my meadow camp and i wanted to keep the wood structure aesthetics 😊

[tropic idol]

I made a large light fixture inspired by the Yggdrasil trees in the Mistlands.

[pulsar quail]

@viral nexus You good?

[fervent pulsar]

wdym wrong channel

[royal thorn]

idk i guess modded?

not sure

looks ok to me

[pulsar quail]

It's not modded. I have no idea what either of them are on about.

[tall yarrow]

The chains hanging the lamps aren't vanilla.

[minor plume]

Those are the dvergr hanging lamp buildable from vanilla

[grim turtle]

Wow that looks amazing man!!

[jolly parcel]

yeah its modded, those lamp chain dont exist (not like dvergr lantern) and over than that the angle of certain short wood pole are not possible in vanilla

[fervent pulsar]

update of my little cabin

[wet juniper]

don't mind the pillar sticking out of the roof might fix that later

[winter barn]

still WIP...

[grim turtle]

was thinking the exact same thing - i do use mods but dont think i can achieve something like that in vanilla with the lanterns - especially on height distances. Correct me if I am wrong or a blueberry can say otherwise

[jolly parcel]

its 100% you can only build 26° and 45° in vanilla game, and more than that short pole dont have any version with an angle
And we can see many of his pole are build with an angle higher than 45°

[winter barn]

It's the 1m beams rotated with Gizmos..

[wet atlas]

The Viking village that I built in 10 hours for the challenge

[tropic idol]

Runebloom Botanical Gardens at the Mistlands

[tropic idol]

Also made kind of a twisted root scythe-lite.

[raven ether]

did you use mods?

[keen mauve]

stone hub in progress

[clever turret]

Another small outpost to mark my exploits

[languid ridge]

My extremely good build.

[merry stone]

So uh, there’s like 4 nodes hoarding a corner of my base. I’m about 6 blocks up from the top of it lol

Including the mined bits, it just keeps going…

[jolly parcel]

Hi ! I wanted to show the main base of my first playthrough ! Vanilla, nomods, nocost building, but fully usable for adventure 😁 Outside + interior !

including the sky chest room i showed before 😁 (no mods too, just a little tricks)

[wary haven]

The journey so far, we just got to iron so we're building a keep where im sitting next

[errant roost]

A complete restructuring of the main base - same theme, bigger rooms, stone floors, more to come 🙂

[tropic idol]

Managed to trap Yagluth in a cage that's being held by his own altar. #staymad

[jolly parcel]

Just a little portal for the spawn stone made this night 😁 (yeah i like black marble ! )

[south sinew]

Why do big bases feel so lonely?

[pulsar quail]

Because they're utterly unecessary.

[vocal crow]

Some people like building 🙂

[south sinew]

Thats one way to look at it

[tropic idol]

don’t mind him he’s a troll. i mean look at him lol

[woeful radish]

I need help bad

[south sinew]

What you need is corewood!

[woeful radish]

I have no clue what that is Ik new to the game

[south sinew]

You need to support your roof more

[woeful radish]

Idk how to do that Ik looking for someone to possibly join my server just for a little bit to help

[fervent hornet]

Corewood is gathered by cutting down pines, which are found in black forest. It offers better support than normal wood, although not as stable as iron wood.

[simple sky]

Oh... I'm stealing that bar idea literally right now 🤣

[simple sky]

Yeah, you may just need to advance more in the game to get what you want here. But just keep progressing, you'll be able to build cooler and cooler stuff as you go!

[subtle pelican]

I see a stonecutter and darkwood poles, so I assume if you're new than you are building in hammer/creative mode? If so, try out the Corewood or Wood Iron beams/poles - a forge is needed for the Wood Iron pieces. Hope you get it figured out! There are so many possibilities for fun builds!!

[tight plaza]

My base=) p1

my base p2

[south sinew]

Thats one neat looking base! Well done. Ashwood pieces are so good.

[tight plaza]

thanks)

[south sinew]

Very cool setup with the farming areas, harbor and portal area

Seems like a well defendable base, you got raids going on?

[tight plaza]

in valheim usually the player protects his base and not the other way around, however there is a fence and it consists of stone and iron bars)

[south sinew]

Well this base does seem a little protective 😉 Not a lot will get into it. Enjoy it now its finished!

[south sinew]

The whole thing?! xD

[simple sky]

well just the idea for now 😅 we're still in our bonemass era so I think you have access to components I don't yet

[south sinew]

The bar is completely doable around swamp!

Finewood, wood, corewood, iron and stone is all

[merry epoch]

The base for now

[merry epoch]

built from day 5 onwards

it started off with the central part (tallest thach one) and eventually we added in a chest room, portal room, mead room, kitchen and the crafting room as of today

even if it doesn't look the greatest I like it, functional as hell

[jolly parcel]

[WIP] I just finished my playthrough in Ashland so i decided to build a skybase 😁 !
First time i go that far around that concept in valheim.
Its no mods but obviously fly mode + free building modifier and need spawn something special for making the marble "fly"
Here is only the core of the base 😁

[upper quiver]

Cause most these people don’t know how to play chess 😆

[timber mango]

wip so far of a new house im making

[brittle totem]

Been bored lately and dont feel like finishing ashland so i have been building in my solo survival world, it isint finished yeat

[errant roost]

Reconfiguration complete - now to finish the outer walls

Kitchen on the right - crafting on the left, smelting clear in the back, bedrooms in each corner, stuff n things in the middle 🙂

[daring egret]

did u watch the movie 'The Shining'?

[merry epoch]

The amount of smoke holy

[south sinew]

No but im very interested to know what link youre making😋

[daring egret]

i wont spoil it. its a must watch

[errant roost]

No real semblance of a roof helps alleviate that 😆

[south sinew]

Only know the axe and the door part

[worldly sundial]

I apologize for th dark screenshots, started playing this today for more or less the first time ~on steam deck~ and it is an absolute blast the building seems super cool, I was having a smoke problem with my room and chimney so I two stepped it to release the smoke while maintaining the roof 😁 if anyone wants to play ever let me know id love to adventure

[merry epoch]

Looks nice, wayy better than my first build

[worldly sundial]

Thank you 😭 I scrolled up and saw everyone's castles lmao I have a long way to go

[merry epoch]

Sameeee, my build is up there asw but it has taken houuurs already, those castles and stuff are like impossible at least for me

[worldly sundial]

Should send a picture of your build real fast 👀

[merry epoch]

throne room :)

[jolly parcel]

[WIP] Skybase Step 2 : the core of the workshop is done, now have to build side room large enough for each bench at max rank 😁

[wet juniper]

used cheats to fly up to get a good view over the base. not the prettiest but gets the job done

[worldly sundial]

Little House I managed to build before beating the first boss now it's off to the black forest

[quartz hearth]

Now you will be known as just Dvde

[worldly sundial]

Oh shit you're right lol

[fervent hornet]

Or HomefulDvde.

[sweet loom]

Just started playing last night. Here's my first base build.

[worldly sundial]

Ooohhhh across the water goes crazy lol

[sweet loom]

Yeah, its a little island that's right on the coast about a minute jog from the Black Forest.

[sweet loom]

It was a little cramped so I redesigned the building for more room to move around.

[wet juniper]

Thats cozy asf

[visual smelt]

My swamp build in the evening, when I went out for another iron cruise.

[merry epoch]

Thats so sick

[visual smelt]

Thanks

[errant roost]

The Great Wall is coming along nicely 🙂

[silent valley]

weird plains house

[hallow epoch]

beauty in simplicity

[visual smelt]

Currently relighting my builds.
It's a shame how much of a darn hassle it is to relight all those fires.
It looks so much better than without.

[ornate totem]

My wish is for Drawbridges

[tropic idol]

I'm just gonna go. I shouldn't have barged in. How stupid of me.

[jolly parcel]

[WIP] Step 3, portal hub is finished 😁 ! Next the side room linked at the core of the base, Throne room, rest room and chest room
Still vanilla, cheat/fly mode on (obviously)

Underview

[plain token]

How do you make them float like that is that a mod or smt

[merry epoch]

either some creative fuckery or mods

[jolly parcel]

Its not a mod 😁 , i spawn a piece of rock in the sky so every building part that touch the rock is treated as the ground.
You can even do this without any cheating command using a Ward, because ward cant be destroyed by the gravity even if it dont touch the ground.
So with iron pole/beam you can build wood structure starting from the ward (only work for wood structure)
For stone/marble structure you need something treated as the ground, so the only option "vanilla" is to spawn a rock (in creative mode).
For this building i use Rock_destructible_test
This is a rock composed with multiple little stone that you can break if needed
On this floating base, i used ~15 Spawned rock

Other things, when you build wood structure starting from a ward, you have to take care about your height building, because even if you would build in the sky it still take care about the height.
So the limit is still the iron beam/pole max height and you have to build multiple structure point with a ward.
Like this : (this building have 6 structure point with a ward, 1 under, 1 in the center and 1 on each corner, each ward space each other by ~10-12m)

[visual smelt]

The ground of my new mountain build is laid.

[final karma]

made the building just after killing elder, after that ive just decorated the inside. Planning to ad a expansion where the farm currently is

[final karma]

expansion done. just need some big tables from the plains

[grim turtle]

Using a command or are you using dev commands? as that is still classified as a mod - (in order to use dev commands you need a mod to enable it..)

[pulsar quail]

Well that depends.

[grim turtle]

says the one before thats not a person using mods even though the person was....

[pulsar quail]

Eh?

[grim turtle]

Person with chain hanging lanterns - you called the person to others not using a mod. Clearly shows you have no idea what you are talking about even though the person was using mods.
If you can confirm some one is using mods okay, if not i suggest to keep your hands away from the keyboard

[pulsar quail]

You're the one accusing these people of using mods, not me.

[grim turtle]

I am asking a simple question not accusing get your facts straight

[jade lichen]

using devcommands does not classify as modding, there's no third party stuff involved in that

[grim turtle]

in order to enable it you need a mod no? If not please let me know otherwise

[pulsar quail]

No, which is why I said it depends.

[grim turtle]

All i am asking is do you need a mod to enable yes or no

[jade lichen]

you just rightclick it on steam, click properties and then type "-console" into the launch arguments field
you could say that's modifying the game, not exactly wrong, but i'd say that's being a bit too strict. devcommands in all other contexts/channels are excempt from the "no mods" rules so i don't see why they shouldn't be here

[grim turtle]

then defeats the purpose of players showing modded builds on here if someone is using dev commands... its not vanilla is it

[jade lichen]

well if they're showing modded builds, then there are mods to point out unrelated to the devcommands, not sure i understand what you mean

[grim turtle]

showing 2 aspects modded is a no no on here, some one who uses dev commands on here to showcase a build is okay?

[pulsar quail]

Yes, because devcommands aren't mods.

[grim turtle]

not vanilla though is it

[pulsar quail]

I fail to see why this is so confusing.

[jade lichen]

-# if i had a say in things, enforcement of the no mods rule would be leagues more lax, hate that 50% of the reactions in this channel are just "wrong channel" followed by long discussions about why

[grim turtle]

dev commands is similar to modding or alternating a scene

[pulsar quail]

Devcommands remain, and will continue to remain, not mods.

[grim turtle]

But then this channel hates people with a creative mind whilst using mods - its a build channel - share pics on creativity why the hate so much if some one uses a mod

[pulsar quail]

We have a modded screenshot channel. There's no hate, but modded screenshots will confuse new players who won't realise it's modded or not.

[grim turtle]

that channel is broken and labelled wrong - modded screenshots can mean anything - modded build << build is key to have to show case modded builds

[grim turtle]

i do you like your response on that 🙂

[jolly parcel]

Hi ! i use dev commands to fly, apply the "no cost" the only things that dont remain vanilla in term of game content is the spawn of a "rock" that already exist in game files even in your vanilla valheim version.
I didnt add any add-on to the game giving me any aditionnal content
And i clearly precise what i have used to build it 😁

[grim turtle]

No hate from me just respect and love it!

[jolly parcel]

No problem 😁 !

[sweet loom]

New base up and running!

[digital goblet]

I play with a few qol mods and post here because I don't use modded items lol NGL

The interior

[final karma]

tonight we feast

[dire bobcat]

@finite scarab

[errant roost]

I highly doubt I'm the first to do something like this; and I'm quite certain I won't be the last either 😉

[dim sierra]

My WIP house, also my very first big build that im quite proud of, still in the process of making the forge area and moving all my items, as well as making the storage room.

Plus decorating, but i will do that after completion

[errant roost]

That looks well constructed

[dim sierra]

It took me 3 irl days, where 1 day i spent the entire time trying to figure out the supports for the roof on the 2nd floor

The roof is so volatile and fragile, if i change even 1 support itll all break

[errant roost]

I've been working on this for well over a month

[errant roost]

And you'll get stronger stuff to shore up that roof situation

[dim sierra]

Looks really good!

[red hill]

Kingdom of the Crows, Sargoth city WIP

[red hill]

@hearty gull had some flare of my own style but still the same design layout

the interior

[fierce yacht]

maybe redo the pics during the day.. cant see shit lol

[red hill]

You're absolutely right, discord image compression doesn't help either lol

[fluid verge]

Ruined stairs

[red hill]

@fierce yacht

[errant roost]

That's pretty cool

[fierce yacht]

Hell yeah

[clever turret]

top pov of a base, what fits

[red hill]

Huscarl's Longhouse, sort of based on historical longhouses, comes with a fighting pit in the back

[fierce yacht]

I only wish that sea walls would actually hold back water. The waves of the black forest absolutely crash against and go over mine

[hallow epoch]

good time

[fierce yacht]

Holy shit. What do you even do in this game for 9000 hours

[errant roost]

Build.

[hallow epoch]

playing 😉

[quaint saffron]

9000 hours is insane. If only homie was getting paid 10$ an hour. But well done tho.

[vocal crow]

6 hours+ a day for 4 years thats insane

[vague grotto]

wow

[fierce yacht]

Plot twist, he sat afk 6 hours a day for 4 years

[errant roost]

The portal is behind the curtains

[pearl torrent]

At first glance I thought your surtling on the stand on the left looked like this..

[fiery bluff]

Dragon Tavern and new village

[red hill]

That looks dope, reminds me of those Japanese shinto gates

[red hill]

One of my early builds a few years back when I first started valheim

[quartz hearth]

Cantilever Drakkar dock

The water is really deep here so it would have been difficult to ground the dock in the normal way, hence the cantilever

[native torrent]

how you get the ground so flat and even? aahh it looks soo good

[fervent hornet]

Lots of stone, hoeing and pickaxeing.

[next needle]

Reclaiming a sunken Mistlands form the Deep North and Ashland divide. Wanted to make a nice mushroom farm but the land that I had, and was perfect was taken away. So I am going Moses mode and parting the waters and rising the land out of the water to make my farm.

New land starts at the fire.

What was lost and surived.

[gentle aspen]

been here a long time. have seen a lot of cool builds. i decided to try a build with less conventional build pieces. this fortress is a WIP but damn, i think it looks HAWT.

[lavish cave]

my village is getting bigger

[ornate galleon]

finally getting into some windows

[brisk gust]

my little kitchen

[gentle aspen]

breh i'm loving this building block

[indigo dust]

notice how you only placed grausten pillars xd, they look nice

[gentle aspen]

right? i just never thought to make a whole build out of them. i didnt give the structure enough metal support to take it to max height but i'm very happy witch how much space i've got

[fluid verge]

Ruined citadel (work in progress)
