Ark: Genesis - Epic Viking Longhouse - How to build Tutorial (No Mods)

New Ark Genesis Arctic Epic Viking Longhouse how to build tutorial, no mods.
NITRADO hosts Excellent Ark Servers for Console and PC, take a look click my link nitra.do/ThePilgrimzProject
This Is my first build on the Ark Genesis Arctic Biome, it should have been just a Viking Longhouse but I added the Epic after I totally miscalculated the finished size of the base :)
I wanted the Longhouse to have curved walls at the corners with a large thatch roof that overhung the wall and a thinner interior with Feasting Tables and a throne.
What I have ended up with is a base large enough for a full crafting area a Hatchery and space for Dinosaur Gateways in the roof to bring flyers in.
I am still really happy with the outcome the roof looks great and now you have a functioning base :)
This is a full how-to build tutorial. In this tutorial, there are a lot of Ark building ideas and building tips that can be used on your base designs. This Base was built on official settings and No Mods so it can be built on Ark Survival Evolved Xbox One, PS4 and PC servers and single player.
Ark Survival Evolved has amazing building mechanics, there are endless ways to design and build your base.
Hope you enjoy the build :)

Thanks Ryo👍, I am really happy with the pictures I took. It was a pleasure to build.

[@twigsclark220]

Love the build! This is the 2nd one ive built of yours and both have been epic to use appre appreciate the vids, made each of the two out of metal just due to being a single dad who doesn't always have time every day to jump on to restart decay timer. I was able to change a minor thing when it came to the very last section of the roof running long wise where the flyer access "garages" are. At the sections you put two double door frames next to each other stacked 2 high in the middle of the 3 separate ceilings running width wise (for visual reference time stamp in your video 1:01:43 - 1:01:49), I added the sloped wall right and left to the tops of the double door frames which gave support to the roof sections in the middle running long wise. allowing one to connect the attics on each side of large Dino door bays without having to run the sloped roof pieces the entire way through cutting the two off and creating a barrier. This gave me an extra 3 sections (4×2) to store stuff related to the flyer tames accessing those "garages" or extra sleeping areas or whateverthe imagination uses it for instead of it being used by overlapping sloped roof pieces. Food for thought. I'm on official NA pve server 891 on the island and my coords lat52 lon15-16

haha thanks so much m8😁. This was just the ideal spot and as I said, it was supposed to be a lot smaller :) I think the final base is a lot more practical for playing the game though.

[@mizzlethegreat7915]

@@ThePilgrimzProject when your playing the "long game", practicality is a must m8! That's why I built your bronto base design. It didn't just look aestheticaly pleasing, but it actually had some practical function to it!

@@mizzlethegreat7915 Nice :) I like building the big dino bases but not a lot of people get the opportunity to play like that because of server settings. A lot of people like the idea of having a nomadic tribe though.

Amazing build pilgrim, i really like the design and the rounded edges add a lot more detail, i think you should try a bog or ocean nomad platform base next, like on a megachelon or paracer

[@ThePilgrimzProject]

Thanks again Aj, always happy to see the regular people posting :) I have been asked by a Patron to build on Centre that will be a Village series, but Before that, I have had this Tower design in my head for a few weeks and I really want to give it a try with the Castle, Keeps, and Forts Remastered Mod. I do have a few ideas for more Ocean Platforms and a good underwater base using the Vacum compartments, 100s of ideas, not enough time m8 lol

Dude, seriously, I’ve followed quiet a few of your video’s this one tops them all, you seriously need to continue creating these videos... how on earth you think these ideas up and actually get them to work. I can only assume lots of graph paper and time

[@ThePilgrimzProject]

Thanks Neil :) sorry for the late reply I missed a bunch of notifications. Mostly I think of a theme or the function of the base like a dino pen or production base and just start building. I have played so long I can pretty much just build them in my head, putting it together and then stand back from the build see the next section and build it :)

[@rillsleather]

After watching this awesome build all I can say is..thank goodness for S+ I admire your patience on sorting out the foundation supports, but my blood pressure would skyrocket if I didn't have my floating ceilings 🤣

[@arleedstanto]

When you're speechless and just want to comment something so YT algorithms will bump this video.. Well done! PS: I'm wondering if you could make a modular type of base where we can build and progress accordingly to our levels, like starter; to mid and eventually end game.. I see some of us (me included) are making your builds as a "goal", if that makes sense? No creative mode, and actually grinding the mats for your builds which is (imo) an appreciation towards your work in itself and which you well deserve. Lastly, thank you. In these time of social distancing, you've managed to keep us entertained with your projects.. Looking forward to your next video. Stay safe.. and did I say looking forward to your next video?

[@ThePilgrimzProject]

wow thanks a lot 😁 I really appreciate messages like this. When I played on a large cluster I would find people just wandering around my bases looking at them and saying how good they were. That's what I try and recreate for the channel so you guys can build things on your servers and show them off :) and have a cool place to live. It is always good to know people are building these things and enjoy the videos. The modular base is a great idea, I could start with wood and thatch and work through the progression. I have some ideas already I am going to start a new series of builds working from a small fishing villages through a town to a fort so I could incorporate this idea into that build. Like start with rustic looking wood and thatch builds through to stone. I am glad I can keep some of us gamers occupied lol my family are all at home and it is driving them mad not working or going to school. I am fine I spend all my time on the computer building and editing videos anyway :) You stay safe as well

Hey bud, can you help me figure out why my ceiling won't line up with the front catwalk correctly, it lays just a touch lower then yours? If I roll with it, will it mess me up later on?

@ The Pilgrimz Project can you tell me how wide and long it is fully build? i tried to meassure myself based on your video but because of the round pillar edges its hard to tell. i guessed 16 on 24 foundations. ty

[@kaylenwatt4882]

Like the long house. But can you be more descriptive? I have no idea what you’re doing.

[@shhhyourtoloud5558]

So ive done everything thats been shown and i figured out how to fix the middle part of the wooden ceilings but i cant figure out the catwalks, one side was fine but the other side wont go out the extra catwalk

[@alexandraborg1365]

Im trying to build it but gets missing foundation support for the middle section when im putting up the wooden ceilings... why

[@Eric-yj7fs]

I've made it all the way to the walls, but for some reason it won't let me flip the walls on the outer edge. Anywhere else it'll let me flip, but along the outer wall where they are supposed to be flipped it will only let me place them rough side out.

[@Imperator-Invictus]

wonder how this will look made full out of tek :)

[@niklasjurgens4300]

Hey I just tried to rebuilt it in my world but I have huge troubles with building the roof. The ceilings can't be placed in the air so far as yours do. And the catwalks have the same issue. Can somebody explain what I'm doing wrong?

[@ccrhuarc42]

I’m in the same boat as you.

[@naravyn2248]

My husband and I were looking for a new base design. This was perfect. I'm going to make a few changes to fit the look of the area we are going to be building, but it really fits our play style and what we like our base to look like. Do you have the dimensions or maybe a blueprint image? That would help immensely.

[@naravyn2248]

I feel dumb. I asked that before I watched the whole video. I had only watched the walk through. LOL

[@jakemurphy8134]

Amazing build in fact building it right now but I have a problem, the wooden ceiling floor all have foundation support but for some reason right in the middle they don’t do you know any way to fix that?

[@ThePilgrimzProject]

No support down the middle of the base? I am not to sure everything was supported but Ark can be funny :) Try attaching some walls from the foundations to the ceilings above some times it just needs to be connected

[@666darkhellboy]

hi i love this build i've tried it with my friend it's reckless and epic but we stumbled on a construction we can't complete it keeps saying foundation required in the middle for about 3 x 8 ceilings and on the 4 corners we are not able to complete the corner cause we need foundations close by is there a way we can do this ?? ps we don't play on creative but single player maybe there lies a difference ?

[@MrAmeerga]

The ceiling part, i had the same problem (single player offline). But i managed to get it done. At the part where you can't build any ceilings no more, place a stone fence foundation at the edge of the last ceiling. Then make a cross with another fence foundation, with half of the foundation now sticking out. This made me eligible to place the rest of the ceilings. Looks a bit weird but i didnt care lol.

[@shhhyourtoloud5558]

the ceiling in the middle is my problem as well, i followed everything the way he did it, save for one of the circles with the fence foundation i actually filled them all in the same then noticed later on that he didn't do that but im almost certain thats not the problem, i guess i can try what the other person said but i dont want it to look messed up. sad the creator couldn't answer like he did others

[@naravyn2248]

Just dropping in to let you know something I noticed while building my foundation. While placing the ceilings, I lost foundation support for a strip 3 wide down the center of the build. I play Win10 version on a nitrado server. So this could be an issue on Xbox as well. The way I fixed it, was by adding a line of a single foundation snapped to the front that went down the center of the build all the way to the back. This might not work on official servers however without some tinkering, as my server has clipping enabled, so I just placed them right through the ones that were already in place. I'm unsure what could have caused this, as I had all the foundations and pillars placed as in the video.

[@Eric-yj7fs]

I ended up with the same issue. My way of fixing it was to demolish the original 18x6 base foundation and fill in the empty space snapping the foundations to the outside foundations. The end effect was the small gap in-between the foundations all became filled in and there was just one giant solid foundation underneath. After that the rest of the ceilings feel right into place.

What is the location for this base

[@voidlocke6518]

cant place ceiling down the middle because foundation support is required.

fixed the issue by attaching a wall connecting the foundation under the area to the ceiling that you cant build passed, i guess the wall will serve as a support beam lol.

The building looks great but there is way to much free space which makes the inside look bad! If this was a tutorial you missed the mark. You sped through important parts. Like the fence foundation part in the beginning

[@ThePilgrimzProject]

Yeah I did underestimate the overall width of the base when I built the rounded corners I admit, but I thought it worked out well for the roof design and flyer storage I try to map things out on the still pics it's a little hard to judge how much info people want. Glad you liked the build though and thanks for the feedback :)

[@nathanbeaudoin4437]

Hi Pilgrims Project, I wanted to share some findings I have learned about building past the limitations of the ocean platform. Do note that I was using creative mode and no clip to figure these things out. We all know that we cant normally build outside the boundaries of an ocean platform. The ocean platform can't, however, override the rights to build in the surrounding area if a structure is pre-present before placement. Furthermore, once the pre-placed structure is connected to the ocean platform all of the structures within a set range do become overwritten as structures placed as part of the ocean platform and can not have any more built on them. I so far have learned that the range down-under seems to be about 30 to 36 blocks depending on the place you build at. the interesting news is that this limited area does allow you to separate the ocean floor foundations from the build and still have it hold integrity. So if you build a 22x22 foundation floor under where the ocean platform will go and build a structure no lower than about 30 blocks under the water surface, you can then connect that structure to an ocean platform to then disconnect the structure from the foundations and it should float. I don't yet know if you can pass that limit yet or what the limit of the structures to the sides of the structure is. I hope this info can help since you are a master builder in ARK, I look forward to seeing your next ARK mansion/castle.

[@ThePilgrimzProject]

Hey nahtan just read your message sorry for the late reply. That is really interesting I was wondering if the depth of the ground below the platform would make a difference but didn't think of building up towards the platform, I will defiantly have a go at this idea. Just need to experiment some times :) I have just started a new platform base using vacuum compartments as a wall for the water pen and built it over a shallow shelf below the water that is only about 10 to 12 walls deep. I have built the compartments around the rocks and built a base inside them below the water
