Enshrouded: How To Build A Cozy Starter Cabin! [Beginner's Guide]

[@Chiselchip]

Early access changed the wood foundation pieces, so your best bet now is to use the ceiling pieces instead for the floor

[@lucagenovese7207]

Do you mean the "flat" ceiling pieces...why? Because they are just one block high?

[@Chiselchip]

Yah! or you can use the foundation pieces but it won't look the same @@lucagenovese7207

[@______Daniel]

Do you recommend using foundation in general? (Not just wood) 256 is pretty steep and I find myself using floors as the base. Is the only downside that the house is on the same “floor” as the grass? Long story short, is the foundation worth the 256 per?

[@Chiselchip]

Yah you could definitely just use the foundation blueprint if you're on flat ground@@______Daniel

[@lloydantonio4799]

@@ChiselchipI don’t have the foundation shape on early access. Anyone else having this issue?

[@jxpwn]

I built your house, but made it bigger proportionally. Thank you for the guide. As someone who doesn't have the patience or creativity naturally to build something as simple as this, this was extremely helpful in making a little enshrouded home I'm happy to come back to. :)

[@Chiselchip]

So glad it helped you!

[@robertgreenough8820]

I'd like to reiterate this comment @chiselchip I have 0 creativity or artistic ability. I used your guide and even though it took me several hours, I was able to get it done. The only issue I ran into is I had leveled my flame thing up to 80x80x80 but when I moved it as you instructed early in the video, it took away that upgrade. 😞

[@Chiselchip]

@@robertgreenough8820 yah the upgrades don’t refund or carry over, hope it’s not too hard to do again though

[@robertgreenough8820]

@@Chiselchip thanks... hope not too. I'll try to look up how to do it tomorrow. I'm exhausted from that build lol

[@thaynthegamer]

38:18 I like that you incorporated the Flame altar, that's the only thing in your house at this point but it already gives Level 5 comfort.

[@Chiselchip]

Yah! Figured it would be the easiest starter design... don't even need a fire right away

[@JohnPero-s6s]

I love that there's no structural integrity mechanic like Valheim, this game's far more forgiving, flexible, AND it looks fantastic. Great tutorial, great build.👍

[@alganhar1]

I both agree and disagree. As it currently stands Enshrouded gives more material options for building than Valheim, and those are just the ones I have seen so far with only about 20 hours in game. The lack of integrity is not so much an issue with me, its nice its not there, but I am used to dealing with building integrity, so really it does not bother me. I also like the single block option, which can be used for fine tuning especially in detailing a build. The single block roof tiles for example can be used to make some really nice wall, window, door and pillar detailing. However, there ARE some areas where Valheim in its current state is far superior building wise. Even unmodded you have better than 90 degree rotation for building blocks, which you do NOT have in Enshrouded. Furniture can be rotated in 10 degree increments, building blocks cannot. At least not currently. As such, no rounded structures, which is a shame as I LIKE rounded, more organic structures, and they are something you can do in Valheim especially if you are using the Gizmo mod, but even without it can be approximated. Another issue is snap points, snap points can be really, really finicky in Enshrouded, frustratingly so at times. Materials wise its less grindy though, another point in Enshrouded's favour, at least for the more common materials I am limited to at the moment. That being said Valheim had some of the same issues initially, especially when it came to finicky snap points! The really major downside with Enshrouded though is that very limited rotation option. That is ALMOST, not quite, but almost a game breaker for me personally....

[@TheREALDocRabbit]

structural integrity was a requirement due to the base attack mechanic in Valheim, same goes for 7 Days. This game is more exploration with no base defense requirement, so it doesn't need structural integrity. If you just page thru the various games that have/don't have it, you will find it coincides with base attacks.

[@JohnPero-s6s]

@@alganhar1 Don't get me wrong, I love Valheim, but for folks like me who don't have the design skills of the master builders, Enshrouded doesn't punish mistakes with total collapse. I too wish that there was better rotation on blocks, I'm a big fan of rounded structures like towers and turrets found in Victorian Gothic and Medieval architecture. I also prefer the terrain options in Enshrouded, the ability to create underground lairs and tunnels fulfills my fantasy of living in a home with secret passages, like Wayne Mannor with the Batcave. One other thing I wish for is a free floating camera or "godmode" for building, so I don't have to d!ck around with scaffolding. ...Ugh, what a pain in the A5S.

[@JohnPero-s6s]

@@TheREALDocRabbit I don't disagree with you one bit, but as a 56 year old gamer, my combat reflexes and patients are less than they used to be. That's why I turn off raids in Valheim. I like my home to be my sanctuary. Also, spiked walls and fences are less aesthetically pleasing, in my opinion.

Definitely one of, if not the best building systems in the genre. Especially for those of us who like to be a bit more creative with our builds. Although, I really hope for more building sets over time, or mod support so that I can also have some preset pieces and a much expanded list of furniture to fully flesh out my builds.

[@Bob.Jenkins]

This looks great!! It’s amazing how much stuff the devs automate for us that makes life easy. And I feel like by giving us 1x1 control they basically guarantee longevity for the game

[@timclifton9996]

Very cool build. Will definitely be using this for inspo on my first build. Just as a side note. If you build a half height wall on your top floor and then attach the roof to that; it makes the top floor a bit more spacious inside and allows you to have overhang on the roof (so they don't end at the wall). You can then go out with the roof on each side of the house by half and this will create a really nice 3D look for the cabin. I learnt this in Valheim.😎

[@SkoomaBoi.]

Great video! Its my first buildin the game and I lvoed it! I added a balcony on the second floor, always like those

[@jasenmorin4936]

Looks very nice. I loved this demo. The building is fun. I hope they add finer rotation the their pieces.

[@Chiselchip]

Thanks! They have super fine rotation to items like furniture and such, but the blocks won't be rotatable given that it's voxel based. It'll be like Minecraft

[@lejohn9281]

[@GothicElf68]

Love the little cabin! I am not crazy about the rough wood's look, but the way you surrounded it with the stone pillars really did a lot to improve the appearance. The roof looked very tricky with trying to place the pieces without snapping them. Would it be possible to do something similar with snapping pieces, then adding or trimming as needed to get the effect? As to the the walls in the rear of the house not naturally forming the arch, I am wondering if this is a bug the developer's need to be aware of. It seems rather odd that doing literally the same thing has a different result, which is what makes me wonder if this is something that is not intended. I'm really looking forward to extended release. I actually am hoping to pre-order, if I can. I can hardly wait to be able to try my hand at building in this game, and watching your two videos (this one and the Hobbit Hole) as well as other building videos is giving me ideas. In the meantime, I've started playing Portal Knights, which Enshrouded's voxel system is based off of.

[@johngallo7383]

Thanks for the Vid! The Roof is very easy in this game compared to Valheim. With Val you had to worry about the roof caving in on your due to the weight and having to shore it was a nightmare. This looks super simple especially that the roof snaps together and provides the beams once they snap. Not that way in Val. But the thing this game has is the combat which is so much better than Val and the Skill trees which Val did not have. Also the graphics are awesome compared to Val. I am very much looking forward to playing this for many hours.

Hey Chisel, love the build, just got the game today and wanted to make this for myself! This is probably a stupid question, but just thought I'd ask anyway, the wood foundation for me looks nothing like yours in terms of its structure. It's just a pure block of wood as opposed to a tile of wood with 4 pillars like it was for you, not sure if the devs changed the wood foundation to look how it does now vs what you had, or whether there's a feature I'm missing to make the foundation look like yours. Is there a way to change what the foundation looks like using the build menu? Am I missing something?

Yah I spoke to the devs about that! They are trying to find the reasoning for that, but yah it's weird that it only happens sometimes and not others depending on the direction

@@Chiselchip I actually found why! It depends on the placement of the foundation. If you move the pillars into either direction by 1 block it works as you'd want it. If you don't, and you put a foundation down without looking if it arcs where you'd want it to, every additionally snapped foundation will also not work. You can see it when putting a 2x2 Pillar down and putting blocks right around it. It seems to only smooth on every 2nd grid-block of the map in one direction.
