THE HARBOR IS DONE! Modded Valheim EP12

[@elliot9854]

vein mining the stone is justified because it allows you to build awesome things!!

[@N1ck00]

TBH it seems like a skill you should eventually get in the base game. Like an ability you'd get from high mining skill. "You can now shatter boulders with a single swing of your mighty pick."

[@possumpossum3313]

@@N1ck00 yeah

[@possumpossum3313]

@@N1ck00 but pretty late game

[@thprofessional5070]

Exactly. I don't even mind him using console commands for stone. I love the builds. Don't need the man to waste his whole life mining. He's already beat the game legit. No worries here.

[@JoshuaKA02]

Without it I would either use console or not play. There is the second mode you could use in VeinMining that is skill based, but I've always just used it straight up; all the stone, all the time, plus a bit of lag.

[@manganvbg90]

You make this game looks so Beautiful. Leave the floors unpaved, normal canals has clay bottom

[@oab]

Yeah that's the plan! Looks better and cheaper 🙂

[@luketheduke3810]

I would have to agree! i like the floor of the conal how it is without the stone pavement

[@luisfilipe1972]

try to see if you can make the canal floor with the street pavement, because it's free

[@47bne]

or see if that guy who made the mod for you can add a sand option to the cultivator, like how it can do grass

[@jaypeeters]

Personally I prefer the look of the canal without the bottom being in stone 🤷‍♂️. Could save you allot of stone. Anyway keep it up! Looks good.

[@wfwlan7654]

Personally I would leave the stonefloor out of the canal. In my opinion it even looks better. A little more natural actually. Also in that way the floor is much more unnoticable. But I also like the current vibe of the island and would hope that you don't flatten everything out. But I'm sure, however you're going to build the rest, it'll look awesome!

[@BentoGambin]

I'd suggest using "no rain damage" so that you can build out in the open without worrying about roofs.

[@ChainsawXIV]

There's a setting in Valheim+ to turn that off. Honestly, there are a ton of settings in there that he hasn't explored yet that can really make nice QOL improvements.

[@kirkanos3968]

@@ChainsawXIV also pretty sure it has a setting so you can change angle it rotates when building think that what broadbent was looking for

[@BentoGambin]

@@kirkanos3968 but to be fair, the standalone gizmo mod is way better

[@JustinJamesJeep]

Loving the harbour! I think it should be more rounded out to give just that little bit more space maybe? And for the stone on the bottom of the canal I'd remove it, a lot less work for you and a more realistic outcome! I can't wait to see the island come to life in future episodes!

[@Brambo117]

Completely agree, the dirt bottum looks better and more natural.

[@allenwand2818]

yea l like the dirt too and can plant water plants in some of the corners if you want

[@corvusaflame713]

Harbors are super hard with all the fiddly bits. I'm impressed, you have more than earned your +1 Like

[@gmylonas]

The harbour is coming along very nicely. The stone in the enteance could stay or go, I'm not bothered. I think that some farms along side the canal would look nice in the sense that you said about the clear edged water. I wouldn't want the farms to take up too much of the forest land but it would also make sense in real world for irrigation and stuff. There are many lighting options now for you to use. Excellent series.

[@funinvegas1]

I've been playing with your mod set, if you hold sprint when you harvest a plant, it harvests the whole field at once.

[@fatalstoner09]

You could plant thistle and berries along edges instead of just grass. BTW vein mine was the best mod ever for me. I only get to play for about an hour here and there so not having to spend days mining is amazing.

[@barchangel7715]

2 mods that made our canals in valheim a 100 times easier to build was valheim diving (making deeper canals) and the build camera. The build camera allowed us to build a corewood pole grid under the ground, which we the pick axed our way down to with diving. Sweet project you made

[@Orwrath2010]

Instead of grass next to the stone you should do a nice gravel path next to it then grass and then maybe have a fence but gravel path then grass would look better next to the stone

[@Orwrath2010]

dirt would be cheaper on the stone plus you can re-use that stone for the wall and base that you will build plus you wouldn't really notice the stone within the channel

[@frankthedsigner558]

Haven’t played Valheim in quite some time. This build really inspired me to get back into the game and build large harbours with canals! Love this series, keep it up!

[@andreashallin8330]

Really enjoying this series. I have tried some off the mods u showcase and started a new playthrue. Keep it up. Keep the canal with dirt. Looks better in my opinion.

[@marebbpc]

you know what, i realy appreciate you doing this without developer mode, it really shows your dedication to the channel, the game, and your fans. That being said you could use the cultivator and use the "grass mode" and make the bottom not dirt but something more like a sandy beach type of bottom.

[@azofshadowmore]

I would like to add to the make the channel bottom dirt as well, but add to that a pass with the cultivator "grass" setting to give it back some of the waters ground look, possible reeds, etc.

[@caseystewart4241]

Keep the dirt for the canal, you can also till it into soil and possibly get some lily pads and reeds to grow in any shallower areas.

[@Danbotics]

I was going to jump onto the comments all through the video just to say I think a dirt base on the harbour would look the best - then you came to that conclusion anyway hehe. It also saves you heaps of farming & building work! Loving the harbour so far mate - I can’t wait to see the finished product!

[@aribavel2757]

I agree with you - the canal should have a natural floor. Save that stone for the build.

[@jujuUK68]

I lile the the canal footpaths. They'd look better if they were edged by bushes and or fences - to make the pavements "stand out", and perhaps with core wood seating logs every few yards, perhaps with torches illuminating the way. - And perhaps the inner top edge of the canal with wood beams? A few banners along the route in - and closer to the base, piles of stone and wood to make it loom more a "working" canal basin. And warehouses, definately some warehouses. And the far entrance - some big entry pillars with burning bonfires - or possibly just torches, but make sure you have red for port and green torches for starboard (port is left, as you sail out). The stone floor was a good sounding idea but in practice, it doesn't quite work, does it?

[@overlordshiina]

You should look more into Valheim+ config because that mods adds a lot of QoL things in the game.

[@lonelydayz]

when it comes to tiling the bottom, id suggest tile until the drawbridge and put a draw bridge at the mouth of each canal so you still get the nice look on them but not the silly look in the harbor

[@Anlax]

Really love this series!

[@oab]

Happy to hear it!

[@Verm1da]

You are making me hyped again to play Valheim, but now with mods. Keep it up it is always great to watch your videos :).

[@flyingvish]

dont know if it will look good but you could try to use a path to blend the stone with the grass for the edges of the canals.

[@bu22k1ll]

I would use stone stairs to to get rid of the drawbridge gap. Moving the drawbridge a block higher will allow the girth of the ship to still be five blocks and you won't have weather damage. I'm sure you were already thinking of something else. Love the series. Wish the mods were available in the workshop. 😨

[@jamescurran9630]

I highly recommend the mod crafty carts, it lets you make a workbench and stonecutter that are on carts so you can just move them around instead of constantly building and breaking them. They are wonderful for large scale builds.

[@iSa_Ach]

Its great seeing you play the game AND having fun. Its like your old The Forest playthroughs.

[@andymarci2954]

I would keep the canal with dirt an i would try to use the cultivator to grow back the „grass“. Love the series! Keep it up!

[@juraj696]

dirt bottom for sure, also with the drawbridges and portcullis available it might be nice to do like a watchtower gated entrance into every canal, just a thought

[@TheGribbleNator]

Wow, I'm half tempted to download this again. Such a masterpiece of a game.

[@joshuac4961]

I thought I would like the stone bottom better but after seeing the rest of the canal I actually kind of like the dirt look better! Either way, I’m loving the series, thanks for sharing with us!

[@alterdphsycosis]

Thank you very much for keeping this game series going. I have wanted to play this ever since it came out but no PC and watching your series is fantastic!

[@TheAleksor]

Maybe, since you can use tools in the water, use the cultivator on the canal floor to bring back the grass or use the hoe to add the rock bottom, which will hopefully keep the stone floor vibe and your sanity intact

[@Carthanify]

For the canal floor you should try to take a look at a single line of stone floor right at the walls. This would also work with the big open water space without looking silly in my opinion. So something like |_ . . . _| Ah heck, might even make those floor parts stairs to have a sloped edge.

[@woodlanditguy2951]

I use Troll Hide pants and top throughout all my playthroughs. I do upgrade my helms to padded as they have 0 effect on movement speed. I just upgrade my troll hide armor to max and roll with it.

[@tonyh8166]

If the angle of the west fork of the harbor is a problem try the Gizmo mod- that lets you set the angle of pieces as you place them.

[@miguelangelvelascoflores2896]

i love the painting to explin the base, great video, i love this game more and more with the time

[@trollson66]

Will be interesting to see how much of a mountain you can move with vein mining. How would a paved road (hoe) look as a canal floor? If even possible.

[@fedsmoker7940]

Looking so sick!! I agree that the canal bottom being dirt will be nicer. The stone looks good but not good enough for how expensive it is

[@troyboi7662]

That looks great! Personally I like how “clean” the canals look with stone BUT the dirt looks fine too, saves you stone and time for better things. I think you should stick with dirt for now, and in the future when you don’t have other things to do/have the time, you could fill it in with stone.

[@streetdoggsi7259]

Dang that looks fantastic, i also like the dirt bottom. Great work my dude

[@DirtSquirty]

I think the harbor looks sweet without a stone bottom.. makes it look deeper.. and save the stone

@@oab I believe if you were to get a windows emulator for your normal Pc (basically like another PC account but emulated within your account) you could run steam on another account and then run valheim through that? It's essentially the same way people used to multitask in WoW with multiple accounts to troll around haha. You could do it but just idle the other account with recording on it :)

[@ChainsawXIV]

Really enjoying this series. :) For farming next time, do yourself a favor and add the Mass Farming mod that's on your list. I'm not sure if it's compatible with he replanting mod, but it makes farming convenient enough that I haven't felt the need for auto-replanting since I started using it, and the mass-picking feature is the best - every time you showed yourself harvesting in this series I'm like: man, you're in for a treat when you get this mod. It's simple but makes a huge difference: hold shift with the cultivator to plant a 5 x 5 grid of things in one go (this bit only works with regular farmables not the stuff added by Plant Everything), and - even better - hold shift while you press E to pick a thing and it will pick all the instances of that thing in an area around you (which works with everything).

[@mcspacecash6807]

The copyrighted paint drawing was epic haha. The harbor looks great! I agree, the dirt looks better, especially now that we have a better idea of the scale. It looks amazing so far.

[@reneheber6435]

Love the series. Wish there were more episodes wish I found this later than sooner so I could binge :,)

[@ruiferreira9759]

I recently discovered the mods : Epic valheim additions, forgotten biomes/doordie monsters and biomes (which all add new monsters and materials to mistlands, ashlands and deepnorth + regular biomes), a mod for extra raids which is called something raids (i c ant remember) , OdinsArchictecture ( for lots of buildings, with trap doors, elevators , etc) , hugh’s armory or hugo’s armory (for new weapons like greatswords which are dope) and dual wielding (which allows 2 of same 1 hand weapon to be equipped while using double stamina and gaining double exp) You should check them out and see if they are to your liking I was quite sceptical about magic overhaul and epicloot but, with creature level control mod (which adds extra stars, effects and elemental inffusions to creatures and bosses), these mods are also incredibly fun!

[@Ragor005]

Stone floor looks nice, but I think it won't for the harbor itself. I'd add stone floor for the entry points only.

[@SerPounce23]

Looks great, I can appreciate the work you've put into it so far.

[@Herdika_Praga]

I haven’t watched it but i know i’ll love it..

Planting in the water also looks pretty good in Valheim, might be an idea for the open area.

[@RikkerdHZ]

Can’t wait to see the final result!

[@robotword]

No to stone bottom. If you were to, it should be done last. And you concern with it looking bland in the central section, I think thats where you would use different colours to make a underwater mosaic. But I'm not sure of the logistics of it. The canal will still look great dirt bottom.

[@goblinslayers_gaming9110]

You should look at Valheim Plus, advanced building controls. It will surely help out with getting smaller rotations, then being able to rotate on more than one axis.

Absolutely loving this series youve made. It's brilliant!! def makng me wana play again LOL and those mods u chose also are just so good! i hope you take ur time with this series jus because i like it so much XD

[@TianarTruegard]

Use the "pathed" cobblestone terrain on the canal bottom and see how that looks instead of stone foundations.

[@Tuevon14257]

As clean as the stone harbor floor looks, harbors are just simply not clean. There will always be that layer of muddy sediment that covers anything up in little time. Also, I know it's already inland so it defeats the purpose, but (entertain me for a bit) a bonfire-lit lighthouse, or a garden framed by stone columns and arches (mostly greco-roman feels there) standing at the central intersection of the harbor could be really cool.

[@goistoist]

Hey man! I am loving this series. Your attention to detail and care for world crafting is definitely one of the reasons I have been subscribed to you for so long. I was wondering, though, if you knew how these mods operate in multi-player? Also, I have had problems in the past with the inventory mods and lost gear when I die. Have you experienced any kind of issues like that with these? I am really interested in throwing up a dedicated server for my friends and family to play on, and we all would like to try using mods again. Thanks, Broadbent! Keep up the great work!

[@damonpreble6943]

Enjoying the Content. Looking forward to seeing your EPIC Island build. Dirt for the canal is fine. Stone bottom looks a little overdone. Keep'em coming!

[@wel0ud996]

1 mod that will save you so much trouble with projects like this and wont feel like cheating to much would be rune magic. It gives you a flatten ground spell at some point.

[@purplevf2676]

You could make a giant kingdom on the island around the canale for boats. That would be insane! Btw keep up the good work, you're the King of Valheim siries! :)

[@benjaminhoughton1545]

This makes me want to try making a base inside a canal type area. Using only the drawbridges as access points into the base. Would make it rather raid proof.

[@shadeslayertd2964]

When I made a harbor I used the stone pathways all along the bottom. Looks really clean.

[@diogo.nfreis]

The canal with no stones is waaaayyy better. BTW, try using the cultivator to add some grass or dirt at the bottom of the canal.

[@Navek213]

You could go farther up the "V" with the single drawbridge and put one on either side somewhere its 8m apart

[@Birdiechik]

I would do the black dirt that you use for planting on the bottom of the canal just for a different look

[@LordKaplann]

What is your map seed?

[@sksaddrakk5183]

two thoughts: Yes I would prefer muddy ground as well compared to stoneflagged. 2nd thought: Do you plan to put a lighthouse at each mouth of the canals? I mean I am fully aware that you do not need them, but it would be cool from an immersion point of view so that traders/visitors will find it in fog/heavy weather.

I wish the buildings etc wouldn't weather and degrade so quickly. I have built a boat dock completely covered. I built very high walls beams etc and covered the whole thing with a roof just so it wouldn't have to be repaired.

I break it down into segments

[@JoshuaKA02]

Not that you have to use it, but ValheimPlus offers config options around boats and the damage terrain does to them. I don't remember if it's just 'on/off' but it could be something to look at.

[@JoshuaKA02]

Just looked. It is an 'on/off' setting. One for 'Water Damage' to boats, and one for all damage to boats. I think the first is terrain. They're both under the 'StructuralIntegrity' header.

[@owenscull2531]

Dirt floor defenetly better. I've been doing canal in my Game try sailing the large long boat through it for first time today. Got to deepen it more so it can sail through it correctly. The boat.got destroy by the time I got to open sea. But I did go through it full sail and you can so see the difference of speed of small boat and larger boat great fun though.
