The BEST Valheim Build I've Ever Seen. Seriously.

[@AkoSimeowmeow]

I was so proud of my little village that I made on my own in survival mode, and then this monster of a build just drops my jaw. Kudos to everyone involved with this amazing build.

[@Kysen]

It's much harder doing it on your own though! 🙂

[@Bvitamine_]

I'm glad I was able to find the spot for the river town, and huge props to @Sad for having the vision of it! And everyone else making their marks. I'm super proud of all you guys!

[@marioluigi164]

its just awesome, cheers, lad

[@Sarmatae1]

Dude, thank YOU. I always start out trying to play organically, but ultimately resort to at least basic mods and cheats. Still...great architecture is great architecture. Perfect placement is a struggle in Creative Modes. The fact that you ground out the resources organically adds a layer of honour to your work that makes it twice as beautiful. I get a headache just looking at parts of it. And the thing is? There doesn't seem to be any contribution builds that stand out in stark contrast, or are noticeably shoddy. They're all unique, but balanced, and the whole thing just flows along in a very living way. It's seamless. Bravo. ♥

[@Bvitamine_]

@@Sarmatae1 Thank you very much! Although I would not want to take the credit, Sad is the one coordinating it all, he is a legend :) But thank you so much for all your kind words!

[@Sarmatae1]

@@Bvitamine_ No problem mate. I think a lot of people don't understand what actually goes into these builds, lol. I wanted to let you know that I do, and I am impressed. I don't think I've EVER built anything this grand without the use of at least a mod or two or a cheat spawn here and there. Building on a cliff is a lot of aggravating legwork. Tell me you guys at least used flying for some of that. ♥

[@Bvitamine_]

@@Sarmatae1 haha thanks! No we didn't, we only used the clutter mod and a little bit of planteverything and that's it, and even those only because we wanted to have even more little details here and there. Yes, the idea was to make it look very authentic, which includes close-to-zero terraforming. It was a great challenge and it took us a few months but we're happy with the results! Nice to see others are too! There are also hidden areas, such as secret basements in the Ruins, a fishing shack with a fishing buddy, or a massage chair in one of the grottos... lol. Or you can just read through the lore too if your legs feel tired which you can find in journal pages at a lost library. It was also written by us... just to mention a few things! 😊

[@zoom4897]

I wish devs could just generate villages like this and have stuff in them, have varities of villages that could be evil or good, and questlines to follow, go north and have huge fortresses, villages, etc in snowy biomes. Make the world more alive. The game has so much potential.

[@Jess-T]

That sounds like the Witcher 3

[@joet7136]

Probably one of the drawbacks of having an entirely procedurally generated world. It would be cool if they could put in one major structure like this per biome area.

[@ssaaddssaadd4682]

A three hour tour.

[@_BeautifullyScene_]

Thank you Kysen for the tour! I'm so honored to be working beside such talent! This server is so much fun!

[@Kysen]

Glad you're enjoying the server 🙂

[@luftwolf7405]

And everything done in survival mode? This is spectacular! Farming tons of wood, let alone tar and iron, must have taken dozens of hours alone. And the buildings are really amazing - looking forward to the detailed tour!!!

[@Toonoisy]

We started this project in early July and the amount of woodchopping and mining is ridiculous. We almost emptied the resources on an already well played server, so Kysen gave permission to reset the crypts, burial chambers, swamps and caves as well as repopulating the fuling villages. Admins Ninabobina and The Architect did super great! We learned A LOT about what creates lag, and the middle of the Riverbuild has a staggering 50 000+ instances. It's insane! I have never crashed so often! 😂

[@ssaaddssaadd4682]

Everything is better with friends 🖤

[@graywing521]

So true, ​ @TinyNorwegian and ​ @Ssaadd Ssaadd - and a shout-out to The Architect, who not only did Admin duty on the Riverbuild, but also built his own separate town, which will probably get its own video!

[@TheGolferguy71]

As someone who has also done a mega build, this is quite impressive. I know how much work and re-work it takes with these. Two thumbs up guys!

[@IronDadGames]

Holy crap! That's insane! We got some good builders on our server as well...can't wait to show them off!

and here i am, with my little block house with a wall around it i could never in a million years come up with this, amazing to say the least seriously awesome, the people behind valheim must be so proud they made this game

[@ssaaddssaadd4682]

Just to clear things up, three MODS were used. Clutter, Plant Anything and Item Stands All Items. All of which require resources to use. Everything was farmed by multiple people across several hours.

Its by far the most beautiful base I have ever seen in ANY game. I want to live there lol

[@Insider13]

,

[@Sarmatae1]

Yeah. This is phenomenal. Absolutely time-consumptive, meticulous-attention-to-detail phenomenal. You zoomed past it, and I had to back up and pause...but the medieval-esque tower portal room is gorgeous, to whoever constructed that. I consider myself a sandbox veteran and have won awards for builds. That's all I'm ever there for though, and Valheim has been no exception. I'm duly impressed by the "Community Build". I've not seen this anywhere else. Wish I could have gotten in on that. I mod, but to crunch the numbers; Conan Exiles = 41 mods. ARK = 14 mods. Valheim = 8 mods, and in my defense, those are all to do with carry weight, inventory limit, and unrestricted portals. I build in ghost, fight/hunt in normal, and do all the organic footwork. I play strictly single-player because I am NOT interested in PvP combat, raiding or being raided, or becoming a farm serf to a huge clan/guild/co-op that isn't going to let me build what I want anyway. I'm fairly new to Valheim, but with Valheim+, would it be possible to construct a custom public seed with a generator, and set the parameters to disable anything BUT building/exploring/interacting/trading? I feel like I'm not explaining this right, lol. ***I only have 178 hours. Less than 24 of that has been modded. When I say I'm new to Valheim, I mean I'm newb. I'd love to host a server where people can come to build, explore, interact, trade. Maybe PvP at a generational point. Valheim+ is a treasure trove of customisation. I'd love some advice before I waste hours of mind-numbing frustration trying to do something that can't be done. Anyone?

I am by far more impressed with builders that harvest their resources and don't use fly mode. Every time I see another pop up in my playlist about some build that a KZbinr did, I'm like "Ok, great, now try that in survival!" Example, a boat dock with 20+ hanging braziers... Go grind that bronze and chains buddy.

[@ssaaddssaadd4682]

This was all in survival, no flight. The only advantage was having others to help farm resources. We spent mornings doing trees and rocks and days doing iron, serpents, wraiths etc.

The bronze grind is crazy... item transport needs some revision in vanilla Valheim! I don't think the cart is all that useful. I've never played on a multiplayer server, I don't have the money to subscribe/join a paid one and don't know anyone that really wants to play Valheim along with me.

[@game_critic]

@@TianarTruegard I made the cart useful. I scouted the nearby Black Forest and marked out all the copper deposits I could find. I lived on a hill back in the meadows, so I made a nice, extended, gradual sloping road connecting all points using the hoe and clearing all brush using the axe. A few hours later, I was hauling in cartloads of copper and all that wood and core wood, back to base with the help of Eikthyr.

Err no body know about general dupe glitches? Get a buddy get him to fill his pockets, he saves his game and puts the items back in your chests. He then dashboards,it closes the game without saving on his end. When he reloads back in as his character he still has a full inventory and you still have the original items in your chest. Enjoy.

We had instances (loadable changes, see F2 in game for egs) above 50k in a number of places, not to mention frozen birds in the sky and invisible deathsquitoes attacking us! One of the biggest challenges was the random spawn or event trolls and lox attacks that would fracture the ground and cause thousands more instances.

[@lilpain1997]
