My new battleship on Fjordur is finished! Xbox/PC (no mods! Just raft limits at x10).
I used 2 layers of foundations, offset at half-height from each other, and built up from each one to get those 'half-walls'.
It has all the modern-tier crafting stations on the bottom floor for easy management.
There's a pickup-truck style loading bay in the rear for dinos with a raised platform for birds. And is equipped with all of the turrets that can go on boats. Perfect for survival, combat, and general fun 🙂

Anyone know how to get the snap point to overlap the right ceiling?
This is what I have now lol
Anybody got some ideas as to how I can place a sloped wall in here ?
@snow garden you have to destroy the sloping roof, place what you need to place and put the sloping roof back
Pretty happy with my enclosed y trap tower in my castle
Fort Crystalline :D. Sadly I can't add more details as it's pretty expensive and we're on a challenge to beat this map to unlock extinction
This turned out better then i expected
A little WIP
made some extremely efficient work with my limited space
what mod are these arches from ?
@snow garden Castles. Keeps and forts Remastered
just need to teleport all my other dinos now
Fun tip: Floating sign text.
Place a wall sign, and type <br> to do a manual line break.
For floating text below the sign, type in: " <br><br><br><br><br><br><br>the text you<br>want displayed. "
For floating text above, type in: " the text you<br>want displayed.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>
Add more " <br> " to extend further.
Here I have my floating text signs hidden under the canvases
when you have 0 clue how to use pipes 🙂
One of my Bases with large pens
this stable type building i built for my sabers and smildons
@pseudo canyon
With an elevator shaft.
Challenge Solved (cheat way):
Admin-cheat hacked together. But a functional airlock and elevator. So you can get into an underwater base without getting wet.
Xbox/Win10 no mods.
I attempted a small room in my castle
the wiki says you can build on tall walls but I cant seem to get it to work, is the wiki wrong or is there a way to fix it?
@feral gyro
hmmm with thatch ceilings on the ground it looks more like a realistic stable hmmmm
Finally finished my first Tek base(not my original design) in crystal isles with primal fear mod
What does everyone think? (S+ Structures mod) It will have a total of 240 large crop plots. Biggest build yet!
Beginner breeding pen based on aaron longstaff's small barn tutorial (without the double wall BS) feat. ugly maewing
Only 72 more snow owls to go
I can probably fit two or three breeding pods on the left, what should I put in that lays eggs and isn't the same as raptors or tek raptors?
rate the base 1-10, the metal walls are death walls
is there a way i can sink a pillar flush this close to the ground, or a way I can raise the foundation snap point just that tiny bit so they are even?
A little Fjordur Float. Full walk through on my channel. Much luv 💙 
Cozy 👀
Really took some inspiration from from this fortress like base build 😁 - this is what I ended up doing on official, wanted to do more but console structure cap is a nightmare
thought to make a circle platform for indi forge
just a simple mid game base on lost island
🕯️
pixel dodoo
No clue where im going with this.
so i need to put a industrial grill a ss dyearia down and the generator needsa better location any ideas?
Im not good at building but i came up with this its unfinished(clearly) and i think its not even unique at all but oh well just gonna let things happen and see how it turns out
could someone help me out with this gap, its the only part till im done
What do I put here?
My Fjordur warship port is under construction. Got some Cranes and a Forklift for all the Shipping Containers at the docks.
@severe oracle, my kitchen is just around the corner.
Ye old Black dye is buggy again... Official PVE... I wish there was actual dye to remove the rust on metal.
Ooo! shiny!
Getting all creative with this castle rebuild
made a quick little boss/artifact display for The Island now that my friends and I have (re)-beaten the guardians. Three down, one to go
A little fallback zone on Fjordur, with an Ambulance, and Military Pickup Truck. Xbox/Win10 Unofficial.
@severe oracle , I did a little of all of the above. I added stairs, tucked a wall of cryos under them (someone gave me that amazing idea, dunno who), and tucked in a bathroom behind the glass.

Trying to put the triangle wall upside down to get it flush- I forgor the setup to do so.
Wildcard your game is shit

Converted my base over to Tek over the event

cant wait to decorate it all tomorrow
Foolin' around with some half-height offsets in my base on an xbox/win10 unofficial server (so no mods!)
Got a stocked up Storage Rack using Catwalks for the shelves, and a Single Vertical-Double-Door where the top and bottom open separately.
This is the only vanilla way, with mods yes u can close it
finally got a proper breeding area
turret tower modeling... XD
Not sure if I can ask here. But what structure is this wall made from? :)
A cpl little builds from today. ARKitects ftw.
After many tries trying to claim this land, going threw many raptors and Rex’s. I have finally claimed the whole area and now building a base called the pillar! (Extinction Project)
Use 1 door for 2 different levels👍🏼

Could you guys give me some advice on tek behemoth gate frames are they moveable with the exo-mek? I placed it on an ocean platform and now I want to build the gate but it is giving me this error... Can't place Behemoth Gate: No Snap point
I tried building pillars on the ocean floor up to that platform but the pillars also dont' reach
my greenhouse has become pretty popular on the server Im playing on, so I decided to post it here
Another little viking longhouse! ARKitects!
Not sure where I’m going with this, original wanted a taming tower and ended up with this🤦♂️
New skiff airplane, built on an Xbox/Win10 Unofficial server. No mods. No floor platform extension tricks.

WIP - tower over water
my skyscraper base
ARKitects Xbox triathlon event finish line.
I'd like to welcome you all to The Screaming Monkey. A little bar i just built.
This is why we put down foundations under the WHOLE teleporter instead of JUST ONE DAMN FOUNDATION.
Death from above… Quetz I use for hunting
My beaver CLAIMS to have built this himself, but IDK, I think he watched a video.
@feral gyro is my little builder hero!
No mods, Vanilla Ark, living server.
Real rooms, corridors and stairs inside (but still no interior).
xD
The Hatchery
The Steel Mill (tek parasaur farm)
cool little overhang window i made in official
A Gazebo I built in Vanaheim 🥰
Almost finished the farm upgrade🥵
A little gate i just finished.
Empty breeding pen i did for argents i will tame
Anyone know how i could raid this withought tek
@ember steeple I think this was my favorite kibble utility building, the 'Yuty toilet.' Eggs would drop in at a pretty regular rate (up to 6 or so at a time, so all these yuty's aren't really needed, but it just helps keep it full) and you could make tons of fertilizer with all the large feces they also make. Just add beehives, water and an indy cooker and you can make tons of extraordinary kibble.
Eventually, I incorporated it into the main building. The basic shape can also be adapted to Gachas and a few other animals (owls at the top to drop pellets on a gacha collector will fill it up fairly quickly)
Basic floorplan for anyone who wants to build one.
(Starting point. Use a leash on minimum to determine the radius and keep the eventual beetles in.)
A little respawn hut.
Moving into our new home on a PvPvE server
Is this illegal build? Are you allowed to stack crop plots like that and place turrets on it?
Need some building help. Any idea how i could finish this roof? I dont want the tip to be pointed.
Managed to juryrig a solution. Those two are the only things holding the roof up 😂
keeping myself busy with an endgame base
Finally my Cryofridges storage is ready 😄

Dont you hate when that happens...
Moved it and will decorate it tomorrow
Thanksgiving Island! Coming to and ARKitects event server near you.
Base on Xbox Official PVE 1373
1st attempt at an X Plant protected mini base🤔
I used to love these walls of x plants with a wall to hold back everything while it got shot at. (You only really need this many to stop the gigas...)
@hollow talon
some angles on my endgame base for lost island, mixing up some of syntac's open design and schwalbe's interior/interesting shapes for walls and ceiling's designs, farming has never been so worth it
PC - Official
my nice tower where i get aimbottet / and attackt by duped meks since 12h, but the devs will soon help me 🙂
Little X plant outpost is kinda ready🤔
Aberration Community Center on my cluster.
Extinction Mansion
Why can't I place this triangle here?
Army Truck Convoy (no mods. Theyre stationary builds).
A Troop Jeep, an APC, and two different Tanks!
They all have engines and autoguns, the tanks are using the cannons. And I used Jump Pads for the wheels.
I used @tidal coyote trick to turn foundations upside down to get those slope walls flipped for the tanks, and got them all perfectly aligned so they even stay snapped to upright pieces.
Fjordur Castle build. (Showcase on YT) 
A floor plan for my next little build.
I mightily resisted the urge to make Sta Avenger's Tower, but I love how it fits in the landscape.

@hollow talon this is my bridge to and from herby island
the poor man base transferring server :]
ive been stuck in this position of my base for the longest time and dont know what to do from here, I wa think going in a different shap but I dont know what to do im not an exterior builder
Another build 🙂
im tryna get a Viking look for the base
finally settling down on fjordur, just lazy as hell to farm stone
Incubator limit set at 3 but Im greedy and want more. 6 total, all powered and work. Using some floaty magic on a boat and meshed into my base. How many rules am I breaking? LUL
Hex Hall, a design experiment I am not entirely happy with. Current mood - to paint all that mud, slate, and brown to blend in better? Feedback, pls!
@silent aspen
I built (the front) of my base. That roof was hell to make, and im not even sure if im going to keep it...
Fjordur Helms Deep castle build
(showcase on YT)
Built a cute little pen for my Pachyrhinos and raptors/terror birds. Design is by Yutay on YouTube and influenced by GG Fizz
My take on Aaron Longstaff’s Catamaran boat build. ✌️
making my biggest base so far, I just have no clue what to fill it with...
Painting made all the difference! I like it enough to bother finishing the interior now.
so because the corner here isn't a direct square, if I place a sloped wall here so I can build the roof further down, I get this sideways roof that ruins everything and I can't find a way to fix this issue
new base took me 9hrs
welcome to the botany module. population: something above 1 idk
I just finished my first ever big build, any tips/suggestions for improving it?

@silent aspen is that what you were tipping to @urban swan do out their base?
@chilly crater
A little work in progress
Hex Hall- the barracks. I stole the 'use mannequins to simulate NPCs' from @wind umbra
question in #building-discussions
Someone teach me how to build please
so I want to put a roof on this circular building, issue is, how? I cant place sloped walls and then place a roof on it, so how else can I do this?
is the only method to do this to build a ceiling layer inwards, then a wall up and then attach sloped roofs to those walls and then repeat?
got it
Vannahiem
My first build
The Master's rooms are super lux in Hex Hall, because he's a huge simp for his wife.
so this well is the source of my water network, the well is not dry but yet none of the plants are irrigated, weird thing is that I could swear that in the past it did irrigate the plants for a while but now it suddenly doesn't anymore, though this might have been the rain, I still doubt that was the case
Player creations from my server.
I love building, but watching others build too is actually kinda fun 😂
bed for a king
converted my breeding building to tek earlier
shame corner for his family who stole my ascendant rifle.
any one with big brain know a fix to fence foundation. not snaping to floors trying to double wall everything out side
two of my most recent builds
One of my favorite builds so far, but alas i have to removed her.. servers opened so she’s getting a overhaul. And twice her size..
work in progress
Anyone have any tips on how to connect the semi dome to a two tek wall? I want a roof attached to it but I'm stuck. Pm if you have a solution!
Added a little more
after a long time of starting on fjordur mid-endgame on lost island, i got a roof
sadly i probably won't be able to appreciate it for long, for i'm gonna try to speedrun everything boss related, since i'll probably get an ssd card for the pc soon, which i believe to a fact that will erase any of my game data when transferred from the original hd drive
I mean look at all those pretty angles and symmetry and geometry. UGH, so smexy.
My base is finally taking shape, going for a viking build with a modern twist. Making the wall was a nightmare.
My starter base
Anyone able to identify the spot off the picture? (Center)
my house
Another little shack.
Why????
ARKitects Official Cluster
Official PVE, pretty well finished now
How can I fix that?
I made a Greenhouse. And a Birdcage. And they were the same thing.
I hope upside down sloped walls would be possible. The "V" looks funny. 
The "Belly O' Tea"!
Created for the Arkitects Official Cluster projects! Xbox/PC no mods. Half-Walls finagled in place by having 2 layers of floor foundations.
The Supreme Palace
wish i can use the zaw and cut off the pole 😭😭
how big is the no spawn zone distance? will i need to build something inbetween if i want to claim this big area? (also wiki says walls on fence foundation generate the radius, does wall with window count too? to be sure 🙂
How to stop pillars sticking up when the ground is low?
Making my first base, help would be appreciated on how I could continue to make it look nicer, I got the main platform done but i don’t really know what to do from here (it’s sorta a lake house)
is their a reason why i cant build in some parts of this area
Extremely simple, but the taming pen-turned garage for my skiff, and the similar one i built for the ATV, which is currently trying to escape
and the humble little base to show I can't just build boxes. i can also build boxes with pointy tops
My humble beginnings
A little zen place!

simple? yes
will yall find it ugly? probably
do i still like it? yup
definitely needs some decor on the outside but havent thought of anything the brontos wont get stuck on yet, and i may move the layout around too
volcano base on the island
how do I fill this up with sloped roofs, they won't let me place it as is? the only method I figured out is placing a ceiling with a wall and sloped walls to it (pic2) and then placing the sloped roof on it, but isn't there a better method out there?
Fortnite builds?
any tips for shadowmane breeding setups? I tried this and it was miserable and quickly broke it down #building-discussions
and because I play on singleplayer this setup only reaches a single female for breeding...

A sneak preview of the new armada I've been working on for the last few weeks for a special project.

It's Halloween, so here's my Halloween-colored base, built on Flat Ark's Valguero Halloween event server.
(first timer here !)
someona has any clue why i get this msg? i build a lot of things here, now i can't put anything on ceillings/floor on my ocean plataform.. any fix?
Edit: the only odd thing i did in those plataforms are that method to "connect" the gap between them.. using a buried pilar on a very edge of one plataform. Now i test disconnecting them from the actual plataform floor and seems to work again. Notice this if u are using this no gap method!
so I got a problem here, I built my base so high I eventually realised that I straightup cannot reach my base if I die for example and dont have the zipline pants, so is there any other method I could (build) to reach my base? metal elevators are too expensive, wooden ones are going to be insanity as well, it's way too high for rope ladders and if I want to use multiple the way up is too irregular to build a chain of them... so I am really at a loss for ideas here
what yall think about my vent wall
im new to building so im wondering if i should make these walls out of wood and if so how tall??

Any ideas why i can't place this?
things getting bigger and bigger
My old base on my ps4. The buildings weren't my original design but putting it together and the coloration were. Also some slight modifications to the buildings as well were done by me.
is there any way I can make the overhang extend further?
@tardy raptor Those pillars on the far right aren't actually needed, just the connection to foundations or ceilings/pillars from the left. It really just depends on how much overhang you want/need if you think cliff platforms would work better.

is there any possible way to prevent this rock and these bushes from spawning inside my house?
aside from those resources spawning inside and the fact that i haven't furnished it yet, i think it looks good. i am by no means a great builder in this game, but this is about the best i could do with my current skill

Update: New PvP base under water death wall build
This my new Refinery Design. Using a Stryder as a conveyor and a hopper. hopper which does indeed function. taking the metal dropped from the furnaces on the top floor and funnel it into the collectors on the 2nd floor. where it can moved to the stryder or to a Tek Transmitter to take it to another servers. not shore but the system should net about a 150k ingots every time you smelt metal this can very depending how many ingots get trapped or lost in the system.
Personal Note: I know this is a Impractical and there is likely better ways to do this I just like making things harder on my self and trying to build machines. this was built on a Test map it created using a procedural Ark.
Outpost
Suggestion for the Dev's if there is no Tek in Ark 2 can we get some primitive cars 😜
getting the base slowly started
Limousine on a Skiff!! It's a bit short but Im working with the vanilla Ark limits. It has storage compartments, a minifridge, reliable seating you dont get stuck in, and the generator there is placed like its a steering wheel - and its still activatable and inventory-accessible! Video on my YouTube channel: "Ark - Flying Limousine Skiff - No Mods"
it was a long build lol

Saved some foundation lag I think, was all S+ stacked foundies
Behemoth gate w/ double doors at the bottom for us hoomans (no mods, just S+) @rotund coral This is built within a base but you could just replace the foundations with fence foundations to build walls up where you need to block off up and around
I made a tek base, 3 rooms, one for construction, one for resting and one for managing the base's power supply.
More shiz i made
Current base on fjordur
Tell me I'm not hot for this trap (friends pov)
Playing with a vaguely southwest theme in the high desert on Ragnarok
@hardy compass That's a behemoth gate (S+ only, no other mods) on Fjordur. I used door frames as slots for us to swim between for luring/taming water babies. I kept a basilisaurs, dunky, like 7 megs in this space ezpz. Second pic is just on the inside of the gate

New Crystal Isles build. Not finished yet, but I am proud of this one!
This room is probably my favorite thing I've ever built. It's nothing outrageous, but it does actually look like something someone would live in.
Sibling-design Pirate Ships built on Motorboats. The Flying Dutchman and Queen Anne's Revenge!! Built for the ARKitects Official Cluster events! Over 30 cannons each, with Ballista and Catapults. Designed for some epic PvP battles!! Yarr!!

That's years of playing ARK + being reeeeeally patient. Putting those pillars to sustain my LI base was a nightmare with all the piranhas and leeches.
There are many YouTube channels with simple tips on how to make even the simplest building look a bit more stylish.
This is my Fjordur viking inspired base.
Hi guys, im a newbie to ark and im trying to build a specific room in my house but im having trouble placing the walls in the foundation at the midway point (like in the middle of the foundation, freely)... Is it possibile by any chance or with a mod idk

My last of the great galleons on the ARKitects Official Event Map, the HMS Tempest. With the largest pirate boat hull I've made to date. It's filled with so many interior details that I ended up structure maxxing the Motorboat before I was able to make tall sails lol! 66 Cannon on 4 decks, with a prow designed to look like the maw of a giant sea monster. I'm excited for the upcoming PvP battle games this will be used in! Xbox/Win10 No Mods.
@fathom charm You can post that in #fanart-and-screenshots

For anyone that wanted a simple Dung beetle farm, this is how I did mine and I have another pen opposite side with 4-5 Phlomia (Nelly’s)
@candid marsh More like this, with the Fence Foundation on the inside - oriented right so that the Track snaps to it on an end, facing outwards.
Here I have my FF placed a little higher than 1 Wall height down from the top. The whole Track is 4 Walls high and it stops flush with the top and bottom floors.
New generation, TOWER GACHA BASE...soon finished...36 gacha , and a big base inside... (pve official)
Just released a couple videos on my YT channel of one of my most epic builds ever. The SDA Legend of Odin!

Proud of this
Finally starting to build a pen for water dinos, not sure where I'm gonna take it from here
getting an odd behavior, i can place a pillar with this method on the other side of the platform, but it will not do it here
This is my tree house so far on the island, i am mostly done except for an inbuild greenhouse and a nice roof. Any suggestions ?
@loud night Building screenshots only please. You can DM images to someone if they need them.
i tried placing pillars here before and i couldnt now i tried with ladders and i just cant place it there
it stops here and i cant place it any further down
Multi-day project. And one piece won't place because "requires nearby foundation" ARGH!!! Any suggestions?
No where near finished 😅
🥝
finnaly done with my base on fjordur [PVE]
Old picture from my first days playing ark (Private modded server)
Part of my Military Vehicle collection, built for the ARKitects Official Events! Xbox/Win10 (No Mods!) (Admin-Spawned Tent though).
Humvee/Pickup Hybrid, Crashed Pickup Truck, Old Army Jeep, and a Transport Truck.
Is it possible to seal this off in a way I could still get through to farm crystals? Bats keep coming through it and killing my tames (Cave in helms deep)
I fixed your screenshot.
You should be able to add a dino gate or behemoth gate there.
L build
What do y’all think of this wall/ entrance design for my swamp fort? Any design tips?
upgrade...
the pipe is irrigated but the barrel is never irrigated tried the 2 available snap points, does anyone know why? please tag me in #building-discussions if u answer
The work continues...
We ride at dawn.
just started on this server, and found this amazing spot to build a base (its pve) (my graphics card is from 2012)=The reason of quality
My rex breeding farm 20 females could go larger if i wanted
Just making some sandwiches with ceilings and walls
Rate my solo base 14 fps on top
New Sp new base (its no where near done)
Gen 2 Tek base, S+ used
A new racing circuit is under construction (pve)... New competitions will take place on Ragnarock 81.
Why is this not connecting to the Fabricator?
AC-130 built on a Skiff!
Single Player build on Win10. There's a cannon, autoturret, and deployed minigun on each side to shoot at stuff. Spacious interior, with a tilted rear cargo door using the metal hatchframe, and an access ramp.
The construction site is progressing, soon I will open the first registration for the big tek Raptor racing competition... prepare your mounts or I can provide you with them, contact me to get my discord 😉to prepare for his championships, I am offering a full color tek raptor egg, in the color of your choice.
built this contraption in a valley and I 100% made it too big for just me to use
working on my base, do you think i should connect the 2 sides with a flat bridge? or a bridge that goes upwards a bit? (i say bridge but it will be a building like the other half (also without a front but also without a back so you can fly right through))
soon operational " the raptor race "
Made this in my server, still a wip tho
Rate my solo base 1-10
With the EVO event for V-Day, I took the opportunity to make some expansions to my base I posted here a few days ago. All done in Official PvE, over one year standing.
Night time makes it shine.
I felt that a Behemoth gate didn't fit with the rest of the place, way too big. So I made a biological gate using a Paracer, lol.
A couple different angles.
The aviary, with a whole bunch of Sinos. Colors mixed from regular ones, multiple events and even mutations.
And last but not least, my hatchery/nursery now has a sublevel for breeding frogs.
im trying to make a cryo floor but i dont know why its looking wierd if im not standing on the cryofridges
a few more paint touches and the races will be able to start 🙂 (pve- Ragnarock 81)
@dim surge use the pillar and ceilings like this to snap foundations to support the structure above.
i'm talking about this
Work in Progress still
Still working on the Trophy room 🏆
bad pic but it’s a base i’m preparing to raid all heavies what would be the best way to go about raiding this thing?
she gone
how would i build a bridge over this
miss this old base 🙂
how would i fill this thing up
This extension of the racing circuit is open for training... "The Death Spiral"...
mapped out around where we cant build and im just at a loss for words lol time to deep dive some research all i know is from what i did look up this is gonna be one big pain in the ass man 😔 if anyone know how to help me and or knows of a list out theres that plainly tells you how much each structure equals to the limit would be great and btw to those who dont know. no each structure is not one!
@eager thunder You might want to try that in #fanart-and-screenshots ; this channel is for the building related screenshots.
Tamed an alpha PT and got a primal fear starter base built
@sturdy rivet you can use #fanart-and-screenshots for non building content.
Building a new base on valguero. Coming along nicely.
My pve entrance
dk what im doing but im doing it.
progress
I present, the BSS Schlappywag. Long ranging ship able to land wyverns on and trap door to fly smaller flyers into a hanger bay
shared my base here last May. It's went through a lot of renovations and expansions since then. I got a little bit carried away
Almost done with my main base (official PVE) but structure limit is preventing me from building the other half of my base. If anyone got some legit info on structure limits and also tips/tricks/suggestions please ping/message me 🥹
Official PVE - GEN2
Reference for my question in building-discussions
Anyone know how to fix the god damn light? It is hurting my eyes
Use Floors instead of Pillars. Just use the Pillars temporarily to help you align your Floors. You can fill everything in after with ceilings and walls
How do I build 2 ramps down from the ceiling at where the pilar indicator is. It works for the left side but not right 😦
how do i put foundations in this spot?
Just tried to build something good for that, just doesn't look that good, maybe i'll figure something out to build something that looks a bit like his arena 😄
If you place it like this, you can raise it up one step and place it with the base connected.
Much better 😄
Sad that we can't change the Tentacle's pose :/
House built. We’ve started filling it with the essentials (and non essentials lol)
My little seaport village makes me feel cozy
Home sweet home ❤️
bridge for people to cross aint bad 😄
Experimenting with actual circles.
My new Tek Base // Tuto on my Youtube Channel : YuTay
Detective Pikachu base I made on our PvE server.
@autumn wharf this is the teleporter and transmitter I was talking about
why does the ramp look like this
W or L house,
it’s coming together but not quite how I wanted
Shame the Sunken Forest is so laggy… it’s so beautiful. Built a Cathedral to the Ark Gods, and I have to rebuild somewhere less laggy. 
@frigid knoll use #bobs-with-probs or #unofficial-setup-help for help, this channel is for building specifically, not graphics help.
A little work in progress I got going on.
any idea why i cant build ceilings on these lowered spots? it shows as a green placement but wont place
SDA DooMscension, built on the Ascension Cluster, Lost Island.
My starter ship for this server! @autumn magnet streamed a couple of our island tours on his Twitch channel.
what is used in this building
broodmother forgot to pay me rent
@sour kestrel #unofficial-setup-help for help, copy and paste the error code there. This channel is for building only.
Really happy with how this little Lakeside Cottage I built for the #ark-survival-ascendeditects Builder’s Challenge on Fjordur turned out. ☺️🎣
yes
Any idea on how this is "obstructed"?
Offi collision

So far im Loving it! Had to try this Base hehe Credits goes to YT CodyKish 💪🏼 👊🏼 👏🏻
this floating ceiling

my new big base, based on the Command Center from Starcraft (kinda mixing bits from the 1 and 2 versions)
building barad-dûr (following a tutorial, except that i made the base be.. 3x the size of the original)
Nightmare nightmare nightmare nightmare
What is Happening
Building over the edge of an ocean platform :p
Powering turrets without a generator
Or raft designs like these on official… great game hahaha
yes
could anyone tell me how i would be able to place wooden foundations here? currently its not clipping onto anything
Osprey V.2023.3
Now has a bit of a nose, more armored looking. Added windows on top of cockpit for more of a view.
The Floors have been raised so now all of the Chairs and Benches are fully safe to sit on - you won't get stuck inside the floor when you stand up.
I adjusted the height of the manual Minigun Ports so the Player is no longer ejected outside of the helicopter when releasing control of the weapon. (Needed 1.5 wall high clearance).
Finagled two Double Doors on the rear to keep everyone inside.
Power Generator is under the Floor, with the top sticking up so you can still turn it On/Off from near the drivers seat, access to refuel it by the lower rear doors.
Most reliable design so far! Xbox/Win10 Unofficial servers, no mods!
Derpy face pika chu!
yeah i am too lazy to build a real base so i did this
This is related to #building-discussions . The red pieces are ceilings, the next layer are roofs. I need them to point down to continue the roof structure but it wouldn't let me.
Not a base, just a place for my Allos to breed. I hope I won't need large amounts of crystal anytime soon. The Island is pretty much picked clean at this point.
whichever dev made sure this metal thing on extinction lined up with foundations, i like you alot
originally meant to post this screenshot in here instead of #fanart-and-screenshots
I don’t see what’s obstructing it lol
i got creative with the ceiling a bit (barad-dûr from lotr, following a tutorial on yt, except that i made the base 3x the size)
Salzport, a lil sample of my projects
