My Secret to Building in Video Games || Seaside Castle Valheim 

Thank you my dude

Hey there! Don't give up, you will definitely get better. Try to look at videos that give more general building and decoration advice and try to apply that stuff to your build. It also helped me in the passed to basically just copy a build from youtube, and then living in it for a bit, and then start adapting things to my own liking (like add a balcony, remove some walls, or add a room, whatever, you know?). Just keep experimenting a lot with building, and you'll notice you WILL improve. Just soak up tips of thought processes of builders as well as the actual tricks they use to create certain things. And don't be affraid to try different things. Even looking up real life buildings and using that as inspiration can be very helpfull. Good luck builder! May your hammer build epic halls and mighty castles!

Great work broseph

much appreciated@@Advo42069

Great work can’t wait to see another work of art 🤙🏽

Scripting tends to add more natural flow while getting the points you want to discuss taken care of. As you've shown, it's possible to write in natural speech patterns and entertainment that doesn't rely on spur of the moment. I find that separating a script into segments to record in one day helps a lot with redoing things. You can do many takes for each part and choose which to do. Tip: a granny smith apple and a glass of fresh water can help you balance and remove mouth noises during recording. The pH of the apple's juices helps with the stickiness in your mouth most of the time. I struggle with a cheap mic, so I use this whenever I need to. Also, your production, while simple in style, must take ages. I commend you for taking the time. What programs do you use? I'm at a loss for where to even start to make my own designs for inclusion during editing. No idea what to search or look for on the internet to learn.

Well said! @@Immanis_Vir Yeah I cant do a script without a glass of water. I feel that. I have a condition that effects my throat so it would be nice to have something besides water to help which only goes so far. I'll have to try the apple thing. I use final cut pro for my editing. I would recommend this or adobe premiere once you've tried out a cheaper program and have gotten used to the basics(trimming, default transitions, basic text, etc.) and have decided that editing is something you want to get into. For me I use a large library that ive built up over the years of music, pngs, gifs, sound effects etc. I also use music licensing websites, graphics licensing websites and I take notes on editing whenever I can. From successful youtubers or even movies or tv. After awhile you see things everyday that you want to try yourself and that's when editing really gets fun. Hope this helps!

Too kind! Thank you! Couldn't agree more. Its takes a long time to even learn how to use these building mods.. not to mention like you said, the time it saves is insane. And then there's is the fact that you are not just copying something and using it again.. you are created a unified body of work that uses the same visual design language throughout.

Thank you

Much appreciated Dhakhar!

LOL Thanksss

I've been working on this style of video for awhile so thank you!

Oh gosh. I hope I didn't make you not want to build. 😅Thank you though! will do!

I really want a first person walking tour of the build bet it looks awesome inisde

Thanks wiggs!

Using real world concepts has always been helpful for me so I thought I'd share a bit about that this time. Glad you like it. Thank you for the kind words!!

🙏🙏

Much appreciated.

No problem! Thanks for checking it out!

oh thats super cool. Didnt know that. Thanks! :)

Thank you!

much appreciated. The verticality of this one was really only possible because I chose a spot on a hill(because of the raise/lower limitations). So I would recommend that if you are trying something similar. 👍

Thank you wolf!

I also would like to note that your transparent explanations of how you felt, highlighting burnout and fear/reluctance due to the project scope is really effective at appealing to the emotions of the viewer. All builders understand that feeling - some have quit, and some stand to make masterful works of art like you did in this video.

Thank you friend. @@Ragalya The quality of my vids is just as important to me as the quality of the builds in them. Its nice to hear the effort in the past few months is noticed. As for the burnout. I used to skip those sections in the video but now I really try to tell the whole story. I was super nervous to throw it in but now I feel like its all part of it so why not? Thanks again

@@9byte There is a realness and empathy that comes along with sharing those sentiments. It adds character and story elements to the video, and I appreciate them!

Thank you for he input! @@Ragalya

lol Thank you Leeza!

Thankssss

Thank you my dude!

Thank you

Yeah I was definitely getting some fantasy adventure vibes from this one so I could totally see that.

Lol That thing took me forever. I could have added a whole other layer to the story about the stresses of that thing😂

Thank you Cherry!

Thanks Ulrich!

😂😂🤙🤙

The more recent builds that I've done do not have any structural supports. They are built with infinite health pieces. Until the game is finished and better optimized its important that I can get every available piece for building and not for supporting. At least for these giant builds anyway.

Ayye thanks for sticking around Jonathan. This is also my fav. Hey dont give me any good megabuild ideas right now I need a break from building for a few days😂(especially lord of the rings builds)

@@9byte no worries, your builds inspire me! Hahah I will try.. but there are so many cool builds that you can do. I'm a builder myself but I like to play the game without mods. I actually tried to build Helms deep with but the game is very restrictive when it comes to digging and raising the ground and not being able to build tunnels so I gave up.. But if you build some lord of the rings stuff, you know atleast one who will be clicking on your video instantly!! Hoping your hands stay healthy and wishing you a great evening 😄

I feel that man. @@jonathankullner596 Had to raise terrain to the max at the back and lower to the max all the way around to get the look I wanted for this one. (Hmm.. what about one mod? You could always just try out height map mod for removing the terrain limitations. The only downside is that you obviously have to have it installed to even see the world) I have some ideas in mind for some LOTR stuff already so dont you worry! Thank you friend. They are better than they were, so I count that as a win! Slow and steady wins the race! and right back at you!

@@9byte well maybe.. If they haven't fixed it when the game is finished I will consider using mods. That sounds great! Really looking forward to that! Pleased to hear that you are getting better! See ya! 👋

Yeah thats fair. It would be cool to see a terrain update at some point.@@jonathankullner596 Later friend!

nvm, just sad about the gates not being crenelated my bad XD.

I guess I just meant that their weren't a lot of different pieces used. Just stone. 😅 It was done with Infinity hammer mod and lots of practice.

Thanks for stopping by from Asmons channel. I guess I try to put as much effort into the builds as I put into my videos. So wow thank you. Very kind of you.

Lots of practice, Freefly cam, ffsmooth command for camera, and use of buildings mods, camera points and backups. Thank you :)

I'm pretty sure Ninebyte used the Infinity Hammer mod for this (as it's also listed in the description) which allows you to copy any object you see in the world with a modded hammer (which means he copied the mossy stones from a ruin in the Black Forest biome), and if you look at the Nexus page for that mod, there's a tutorial that explains how it's possible to rotate on different axis other than Z, so that's probably what he did. :)

Thank you!

Me and another creator have been wondering if this was possible for some time now. Taking a piece of a build and locking it down into one instance that cant be edited instead of every individual piece. At the moment we have not found a fix but some day I hope for this to be possible.

That would solve so many performance issues down the line for the bigger builds that do end up lagging games.

Its part of my channel memberships. Currently it's in the ultimate membership, eventually it will be moved down into the advanced.

Yeah I could work on something for that for sure.

You just use the join button on my channel. Advanced gets you all old worlds and ultimate gets you the new ones when they come out! Thank you for the kind words!

Thanks for the info.... I should have researched before asking. Turns out that the current iso on my iphone - the join button doesn't actually show up on the youtube app apparently. So good to know. Been following your work for a bit and very impressed! Happy to be a member :) Keep up the fantastic work my friend! @@9byte

all builds are offered as part of my memberships. This build and some of the others come with a portal leading to the test area for the build.

Lol I wish

Step 1 left click step 2 repeat

Thanks. No gizmo. All vanilla angles and vanilla build pieces.

@@9byte Thanks for letting me know.

no problem @@FuChingLan

Infinity hammer mod. Help in my discord on mods and the mods that you should be using with this.

Thanks. Infinity hammer mod. Help in my discord if you need it

Thanks

off the edge of the world. Need mods to do it. Join my discord for help if you need it.

The whole build is built with infinite health pieces that will last forever with or without mods. 👍

That's sick! Dont know much about the modding scene yet @@9byte I was looking for inspiration or vanilla survival but this might be too challenging for me! haha

I see. My village build tutorial series might help you then. @@TheSoCanadian Feel free to join the discord and ask any Valheim questions you want and I also have resources for learning and getting started there.

YES mod list in description.

if you decide to try out mods we can answer any questions you have in my discord

off the edge of the world

@@9byte I thought you died when you went off the world's edge. Going to have to try this today.

@@silbakor629 Infinity hammer mod feature

@@9byte Ah, I don't have that one. Will have to look it up

@@silbakor629 If you need more info or help with mods feel free to join the discord and ask any questions you want

It’s a game architecture video to teach how to make stuff and so. It aint so difficult to do on survival tho, its not like its the big deal its just farming like crazy and doing platforms to buil. Also there is nothing wrong on using creative for architecture purposes if you are not planning on passing the game or you already did.

Why don't you try to build something that comes even close to as epic as this in creative, before throwing statements like that out there. You clearly haven't the foggiest idea how much effort goes into builds like these. Farming is just an extra step that has nothing to do with making a build like this.

@@xSTONYTARKx I do.

​@@Didoblero19Wait it is possible to build like this in normal game? I mean you don't need no mods for structual strengh? I tried building tower like those in dark forrest and I can't say I was very succesfull 😅 This castle looks magnificent but I thought it's not possible to build like this in normal game or I lack structual strengh knowledge?
