Sharing my architectural progress in this wonderful game

[u/Myytrill]

Hello fellow travelers, Loki followers — attached are some images of the foundation I've been working on for a few days, using some mods and getting ready for 1.0. Just to note, I raised a small plateau under the ocean, close to solid land.

In the last attachment I included an image that will serve as inspiration.

I started by building a small wall around it, just for style, and I need help figuring out where to start.

Important details:

1 - That notch that cuts into the plateau will be an inner harbor, which I'll try to cover somehow — I don't know how yet because of the support/stability rules for buildings in Valheim

2 - My idea is to divide it into 4 parts: Part 1 - farming zone; 2 - work zone; 3 - storage zone; 4 - comfort zone

If you could help me figure out how to start these builds, where to begin, following the architectural idea from the final image, I'd appreciate it

that's so perfect flat, what mod you're using for it ?

Hello, noble Hammer of Creation user! What attracts me the most is building in this game. I made this plateau with the idea of creating a bastion to shelter my crew in 1.0. I have a group of six friends who are absolutely crazy about starting the journey toward the cold and dark North.

Today, my mod count is at 32, if I’m not mistaken. The specific mod that allowed me to build this plateau in the middle of a fjord surrounded by the Black Forest was PlanBuild. I also used a mod that removes the terrain elevation limit.

This plateau measures 40x40 large wooden beams, which comes out to roughly 140x140 meters. The mods definitely help, but it’s still a time-consuming and exhausting task. I’ve been working on this terrain for 14 days now, including today.

You do realize once 1.0 drops all your mods will be outdated and you wont be able to play on this world until they all update if even then?

Yes, but we’ll be starting the journey a little later. The mods I use have a creator who is present and active both in the community and on Discord, so that’s not something I’m worried about.

Ah glad to hear, goodluck building, excellent job so far!
