Honestly, I will never get tired of a beautiful wizard tower! Maybe a really tall circular tower with 3 smaller side-turret towers? If you were able to build something like that with these design techniques.... it would be mindblowing!

[@Phinesse-Gaming]

I woulda never thought of using the door to create snapping points. I'm most definitely going to be utilizing this trick in my future builds I post. You are without a doubt one of the best builders in the community!

[@nedfest]

I definitely have trouble with roofs lining up since I dont measure out the base of the building first. I guess it would be nice to understand how you go about determining the size of your building so you dont have a crazy roof to deal with.

[@thomasr7129]

I see people recommend creating an outline of the building using 1m wooden beams, to help with that. Another tip is to vary the ground floor with odd an even lengths, like 4x5 or 7x8 to help roof connect and doors etc being in middle. Of course using odd numbers everywhere is also an option. My rudimentary base in new areas is often 5x7.

@@Versaugh Great tip will improve my build 100 times. I use the controller to much and didn't know their was easier way to manually float pieces to make the design perfect. Been fighting lots of snap points for 4 to 10 minutes.

[@lockekappa500]

So impressive, especially since this is obviously not even his first language. Better explained than I could do in my first language.

[@DanielSluchanko]

Wood door does not give 0.25 and 0.5m offsets (they are a little bit bigger actually). It can be good enough but if you need exact offsets, you'd better use different pieces: A spiral staircase gives you exactly 0.25m (there is 1.75m between the center and the lower side snapping points). Grausten pillars have 0.5m between the center and the side snapping points. Also, now with grausten tapered pillars we have 0.25m vertical offset (check out the snapping points)

[@Michael-bw7tz]

Thank you for saying this! I also have noticed in game and even in the video that the door doesn't actually do those exact numbers

[@NbKXStorm]

I would love to see a dock, and a lighthouse, particularly something that can fit the new, huge ship.

been playing from the jump... ever annoyed they never had a way to center a 2m pole/beam working on a build today I run into this problem again then at random, while watching a wow vid in the background, it ends and this video pops up in my feed All those years being annoyed at the weird door snapping and never thinking about how to take advantage of it.... Liked and Subbed Thank you

[@empymind]

BROTHER U MADE ME FINALLY UNDERSTAND THAT DOOR THING, THANKS, UR A GOD.

[@mand0rk]

I think the Grausten pieces would lend themselves perfectly to either a cathedral build, or something Greek/roman inspired. Personally I would love to see a grand cathedral

[@Gskillz-]

Your builds are incredible keep putting them on KZbin and you will grow

[@Versaugh]

I appreciate that!

[@crazlady8648]

So much to learn!! Thank you this will truly help my builds as i learn an grow in game

[@kristian1545]

The door isnt the only 0.25 meter snap point anymore. The grausten tapered pillars have a "center snapping point 1-4". it might look like its at 1m above the ground but its actually at 0.75 and 1.25 for the inverted. this has been incredibly useful for me

[@nikolai1231234]

Would love to see a Magetower / Portal hub build

[@joaquinrodriguezcarelli1420]

Valheim should make us a 0.25 meter wooden beam and one that is half as narrow. Great video!

[@nicoyad]

Finally, some actually useful building tips Most youtubers just repeat the same tricks

[@zipp01987]

For anyone who didn't lnow already: the dverger spiral stair also has 3 snapping points. Drove me crazy

[@cam_bone]

this trick is the best trick in the building book. ive got no other tactic to learn besides this

[@richard2616]

This dude is the "Potato McWhiskey" of Valheim.

[@n4whhdb]

The only thing I worry about with overlapping pieces is that sometimes they've made tweaks to the z depth buffer which make previous pieces pop and jitter. They could conceivably change things again and all of your buildings would need to be rebuilt if that makes sense. Hopefully though they have thoroughly finished the rendering tweaks.

[@percollen46]

Nice! ❤ I really hope they change the cost of ashwood beams. Right now the 1m beam cost 2 wood and the 2m beam costs 4 wood, which is twice the cost of normal wood beams but also twice the costs of ashwood 26 and 45 beams which is wierd?

[@tyraelpl]

I think that new graustone pillars also have 0,25m snappng points making the door not the only piece. Also the 26 deg cross is a neat elemant to use and it doest require you to carry core wood. it has the center exactly between the 'legs" so it's easy to get the corewood result with normal wood.

[@tyraelpl]

My bad. It's just 0,5 m not 0,25 m. Door rules still but even 0,5 m (half the short wood beam) is most often fine imo

[@zacharywilder1774]

Id like to see a shipyard that has wrecked ships, some in dirt, some in water, as decoration for a pier to park your boat. I don't know if its possible to do that but it sounds cool to me.

[@sunplatedfish8255]

great tips! they're gona really help me with my current longhouse base, but one question, i noticed you kept casually doing some voodoo by getting the block piece you were looking at in your current building piece selection, what shortcut is that? it would be super useful not having to navigate the growing building menu but instead quickly swap to what piece I'm looking at!

hold shift look at the piece you want to copy and press middle mouse wheel🙂

I stuggle with making the flametal doors look decent in my entry way. Using the graustien wall arches leaves a small gap at the top of the door. Using the arches to patch that up looks to messy

[@Levelity]

I'm not a visual artist in the least. I just stumble through build process and destroy and rebuild constantly. I'm not sure if I just never developed "vision" or if that's what artists innately possess.

[@satamiko]

@@Levelity a lot of artists do that, dw. Visualisation is one thing, but it is never the same as you put it down on paper. This is why sketching and figuring things out exist.

[@idahahs]

Dude, you should create a Valheim architecture book. One part one part gallery portfolio. One part building fundamentals and techniques. it would make for a great coffee table book.

[@theharbringer3900]

I want to see what you can do with a cathederal build because they are architectural works of art.

[@tyraelpl]

I do have a question. How do i measure 0,25m in the vertical axis. For horizontal we generally have the door but how do i do it for top-bottom. The closest i got is corewood (or 26 deg cross) but i need a point measured between those 2.

[@Versaugh]

I haven't found any pieces that do that so far, and no one has mentioned any either.

[@tyraelpl]

@@Versaugh thank you for a reply though and for the vid. Cheers 🤘

[@DanielSluchanko]

Grausten tapered pillars. The distance between the side snapping points and those closer to the middle (vertically) where the tapered part begins is 0.75m

[@DanielSluchanko]

@@Versaugh i mentioned it in my comment to this video a month ago: grausten tapered pillars. Also wood doors do not give you exactly 0.25 and 0.5m, there are better options

[@tyraelpl]

@@DanielSluchanko id like to know those better options for exactly 0,25 m please :) I mean my ocd demands it kinda 😆I mean as an alternative to doors. Edit. i think i got it with tapered pillars.

[@itranscendencei7964]

I just wanna know how to make O-Corner pieces with the new Grausten roof tiles. Supposedly, you are able to make them with the triangles. I have yet to figure out how though. Really don't understand why the devs didn't add the rest of the Grausten pieces that were already there. Guess they're saving them for the Deep North update.

[@Bobasketches]

I listened to a podcast with the devs and I believe they said some of the build pieces (they specified the o and I corner roof pieces) just weren’t working correctly, but are still working on them so I suspect they will come in the deep north or hopefully in between like hearth and home or hildir updates🤞

[@itranscendencei7964]

I really hope so. Would really like to be able to use a roof tile other than the thatch roof when playing in survival mode.

Are you absolutely sure about the width of the door piece is exact 0.5 meters? Because my test of placing two doors one behind the other showed total width of this "assembly" slightly thicker then 1 meter, as the 1m beam piece placed underneath is shorter then two doors.

[@Versaugh]

I am 100% sure, I have used it and tested it long enough but you are correct that placing the doors side by side will go over 1m, they don't add up because of how they snap beside each other.

[@DanielSluchanko]

The door does not give you exactly 0.25 and 0.5 m. See my other comment to this video. Even if you don't snap the doors to each other, adding 0.25m or 0.5m intervals one by one instead, it will go over 1 meter, cause those snap points are not 0.25 and 0.5

[@EscapeKit]

@@DanielSluchanko I might check this once again. Luckely, the ashlands update gave us those grausten pillars shapping points of which are exactly 0.5m between center and corner

So, how i can build a lot without any troubles with FPS?

The unnecessary complexity of building/placing parts is probably the biggest downfall of this game for my friends and I. Coming from survival games like 7D2D, building was so much easier and you can change snapping options and have every rotation option at a push of a couple buttons.

I have had 10 players in a 15k + instance area and was still playable it was 30+ fps but it depends on if you max out your graphics settings and if you have a animal autofarm near it would kill your fps . but i understands I wish for a huge optimization so we can build cities with no problem and alot of peeps in the area with zero lag.....
