- Hey everyone! Got my FPS sorted out for recording Ark, so hopefully this'll turn out a better quality!
This vid is an overview of some basic base building in ARK (ASA) but also highlights some of the new features & more advanced tricks you can use to create interesting architecture! I hope you enjoy & create some awesome things!

Whoa. Did I seriously just find excellent video game tutorials without the obnoxious "terrible radio morning show host" persona attached to it?? Fantastic work.
Yeah I don’t know. I’m confused too lol
Hahaha thank you! lol
I found it both informative, and enjoyable! I subscribed specifically because of this video, and I hope to see more Ark videos!
Earned a sub from me
I'm not a builder and find this really helpful. Well done!
Your voice is so relaxing. This is like ARK asmr. Very professional, very informative, incredible brevity, 10/10!!!!
Thanks very much! I'm glad it was helpful!
Omg thank you for this ❤ Now I can finally build my watchtower how I imagined it 🎉
I am so happy Ark changed the building machines. It has been needed for years.
_Sees foundations & expects boredom_ *_Nyght Busts out Octagons & exact measurements from foundations._* _Immediately Has My Attention_ I *love* the color coding!! 😍
I used to do color coding when I did pixel art & really.. making the octagons is basically big pixel art, so it seemed logical lol
Thank you for your dormer (sp??) tutorial. I was struggling with mine and didnt realise there was a 90 piece added. Thumbs up from me
No problem at all! The 90degree one is REALLY easy to miss. Glad the video was helpful! :D
Here I am struggling to build foundations and finally break down to watch a tutorial video and stumble upon this video.
Thank you for the excellent content
You're welcome, I hope it helped :D!
Great video, and great presentation! This has given me a lot of inspiration for my future builds.
Thank you! Pillars are how I can clean up the little gaps between my green house and wood walls.
They're SO useful for that now! The old mesh kinda looked a bit bland, but now that they have a new mesh & can be put on a horizontal? They're SO GOOD.
Picked up the game on launch, and absolutely love this building system. Thanks for the vid to help break things down!
Welcome to The Island Survivor! Thanks very much & hope you build lots of cool stuff!
Great video. I learned several new things. I sure hope you keep making more. Your voice and delivery are very well suited to videos.
Thank you!
actually I subbed based purely on that.
Great stuff and look forward to what you do next! 👍👊✌️
New to Ark and this is really helpful, hopefully more to come, will sub in anticipation
Wonderful video. Very helpful tips and tricks for building. Now I need to get logged in to try somethings out to update my current base.
I love all the build techniques you included. 😍 Duuuude, the roofing got a major overhaul. 😲😍 ERMRGRD the triangular roofing looks so good! Ohhh, Thank you for showing how you build your spiral stair plan. Split level is AWESOME. 🤣 "I have a problem." 🤣 It's a great problem. Need more split level.🤩 OHMRgrd, the hidden wall in nuts. NICE
I agree hahaha Thank you
very nice, I've been so tired of building bigger and bigger boxes xD
I love that they have the 90 degree slope wall. Can we also get a 90 degree triangle floor/ceiling too. Please. Haha.
This is an incredible video. Liked and subscribed, can't wait to see what else you have to show
Aww, thank you very much!
Oc-ta-gonal? You mean ɒkˈtaɡən(ə)l ? ah man that cracked my smile each time you said it. Well done. Very good video, informative and not too long winded.
Oh SHIT I had no idea. No one has ever corrected me on the pronunciation of that!? I wish someone had, I had no idea I've been saying it wrong since highschool FFS xD Well, thank you lmao
I'd love to see more videos on the building! This video really helped me out.
Thanks very much! I've been thinking/taking notes about what I could add to another building video next- if you have any ideas, please let me know! :D
I can't think of anything! I'm struggling to roof things I build but I think that's just a limitation of the available building pieces, nothing else haha
Super useful video! Thank you!
ive been looking for a video like this thanksies!!!
I’m constantly amazed at the stuff people are able to figure out in this game.
Thank you for the video. It helped a lot😊
You're quite welcome! Hope you build something AWESOME! :D
@@NyghtWolf quick follow up question, do you know how to turn off the structure limit for building on bronto platforms?
(Playing on Xbox)
Honestly, thank you. Every other video is for these great big unnecessary builds and I'm over here just wanting to know how to do a nice roof lol. Your hard work is appreciated 😁
Super glad to hear it :D Thank you so much!
Thanks for sharing!
Excellent job! Explained very well!
I'd love to see more build videos using the new system
Thanks very much! I was thinking about it. Seems there's quite the demand for it atm, I may have to spend some time & make more :) I'll have to figure out what to feature in it, haha
@NyghtWolf a few ideas
Tree houses (much more viable than in ASE now that we have proper snap points) I know you did one but I'd love to see an in depth walk through on it.
Beach side or 'ocean platform' style?
Something in the snow that fits the theme?
Thank you for this video ❤
Great vid! Subbed, keep it up
So the spiral stairs make a perfect 90° turn and fit into a square block perfectly. I find it's nice to use to save a little room for stairs. You can change which way it spirals too so you can have the top half spiral 1 way and the bottom half spiral a different way.
That really helped thank you 😊
Bit late to the party, but this video has helped me a lot. It certainly beats living in the usual box i always end up with
Try stacking the spiral staircase and then put a pillar on the inside curve of it. Did that in a few areas of my castle build and it worked fairly well, and it doesn't look to bad. Probably best to put it in a corner. Could also frame it with pilalrs if its out in the open.
Oohhh that's not a bad idea! It may look reasonably nice in in a corner or enclose stairwell!
Fabulous!
261st subscriber! Remember me when you’re famous! :3
One thing that messes with me is the new ramps and stairs can’t stack like they used to. You used to be able to get two triangle walls and put a ramp on them then put a staircase on top of the ramp to make a sealed staircase. Perfect for making hidden areas since whats behind the steps is blocked from vision instead of empty space. Also just looked great.
Well done.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
Stalking your channel for more builds 😂
Daily ASA uploads I like it
Ahaha, if only I had the stamina! I wish! xD
"Not cheaty....Idk.. *rubs Hands* cheeky" lol had me dying
One of the things I noticed is how notoriously bad fence foundations are, particularly when you're dealing with variable elevation in the terrain.
I strongly recommend the use of a pillar and walls instead if you're looking for a straight wall as it would keep the wall at the same height regardless of terrain
Ohh yea, 100%. The only thing I ever use those foundations for are literal fence areas where I don't care if the height is variable. They're a BIT better in ASA, but not a big enough improvement to use them for building anything nice..
Hence why they were not really mentioned at all here :)
tnx for the help ! :)
The roof pieces were giving me the shits. Thanks for your help
Under the stair case you can store your blood banks. No one wants to come in and find a bunch of blood banks in the middle of the living room.
Hahahaa! Perfect.
Love you from Cambodia sister 🇰🇭 🥰🦖
Very well done thanks for all the great tips!!!
Subscribed. Very good 👍
Great video! Very informative. Now I just need a computer that can run this game.
Thank you! And yea.. no doubt that this game requires a slightly beefier computer :( Hopefully future optimizing will help & allow it to run on more PCs
Not sure which building mod you used with the detonator, but if you had picked up the stairs at the bottom (being the only support at the time) the rest of that "should" return to your inventory. A really nifty new feature. Great job on the video. Very informative!
Ahh, not a building mod- that was part of Automated Ark. You might be right, I'm going to build that again & see if maybe it was b/c of how the mod 'picked' it up. Thank you!
Yea, if you pick up/demo a structure piece as normal then anything using that structure as an anchor point will recieve the same treatment. If you use the AA remote to do it only the selected piece is affected and anything using it as an anchor point is treated as it was in ASE. Found that out the hard way. XD
@@NyghtWolfAhh, I haven't messed with most of the mods, so I didn't recognize it. I've had Ark since it dropped, back before the Redwoods were a thing, and I've spent the majority of my time building and grinding to build. I am thoroughly enjoying the new system. I've been putting rails at the bottoms of the roof pieces to give them a little extra,(and on the back side of the roof panels as rafters) and thanks to you, I now know I can cross them at the tops! I don't usually put anything along the ridge line of roofs, but it will look great on the next thatch roof cottage I make. So thanks for that!
@@davidcarroll5683 I found that if you use the demo option on the support structure in vanilla, it will break everything instead of picking up the other items in the chain. Not nearly as useful as having all the pieces return to your pocket.
@@FyredrakkenYea, that's very good to know. Makes me wonder if Blitz knows that it's not working like it does in vanilla right now. I feel like it was when he first released it.
Thank you for the tips. Learned learned quite a few of them imma have to incorporate them. Okay but what mod is that pickup gun in. 😂 15:37
That one is Automated Ark :)
Great video
Medieval castles had really steep spiral staircases incase of seiges, knocking the foe from coming up
Ohh, I had no idea! That's really cool!
Need resource management tips like how to move and gather large amounts in order to build
Thanks for all the pointers do you have a background in building design or just a season ark player
Haha you're welcome! Just a seasoned ARK/Survival game builder :) I've been playing ARK since release & used various building mods over the past decade-ish! Also dedicated base builder friend in ton of other survival games I play with my friends like Valheim, No Man's Sky & Conan Exiles :)
So good tutorial wow
Thank you! :D
is there any way to put a foundation on top another foundation? i can seem to raise it up or place another on top cause the ground is lower. i might have to put a pillar and ceiling maybe.
Unfortunately in default Ark foundation stacking isn't possible- your best bet would be pillars & ceiling parts with walls around the pillars. Either that, or you could look into mods like QoL+, or Super Structures Ascended, which adds some functionality like old S+/SS for building
That's one change no ones mentioned... the ramps used to have a high incline. Higher than the roof even. I like this. I can make something cool happen with those I think. I have so many experiments to run tho before I know what I can really do on asa
Ie do spikes snap? Do they clip through still?
So I believe the spikes do snap now, but I'm not sure if they stick through, I haven't tried!
u dont need a mod to turn off the collision, its in your world/server settings
You used a mod at 15:35 to remove structure pieces. WHAT IS THAT MOD??????
Fantastic. I've been removing pieces one-by-one and it's a real pain when you get to the foundations of a really large build and you have to take down each foundation by itself. What a boring task.
I ust want a foundation cut in half into two triangles. theres no way to do buildings I want.
Yeah, they did the spiral staircase dirty, didnt they?
Yea, it seems so. They probably tried to fit a single mesh into the square footprint so it wouldn't throw builds off.. but the fact you can't put railings on them either just makes them very 'bleh' imo :(
Amazing video and adorable sona
Thanks very much! :)
@@NyghtWolf you are most welcome ^^
Pedantic point - After the initial Hexagon (6 sides), the next "ring" around it is actually a Dodecagon (12 sides) not an Octagon (8 sides)
We cant really do octagons without overlapping pieces, which can create ugly floor patterns and snap points
Captain Fatdog also reinvented the "perfect circle" which is actually a 24 sides polygon, but because its not a proper Platonic mathematical object it has no Greek name, but i would make a guess at Decatetragon, but its not a Platonic shape, and while it looks great around the 24 sides and can be walled perfectly, it cant be expanded upon, and will have ugly floor patterns and snaps etc
Someone else had a completely different method for the perfect circle, i forget their name
I heard one of these methods got patched, but i honestly cant think why Wild Card would remove a way to be creative
Its brought some great changes to ASA, Wild Card employing the guy who created the S+ Mod for ASE (G G Fizz), was a smart move, but they need to let him add in a lot more of it, because now he is busy working for them he doesnt have time to redo S+ for ASA
I liked the guide, you did it well, should be very helpful to those new, or new to creative building 👍
lmao Well then. Yea, I have dyslexia & dyscalculia so I can't remember what the shapes are called- I get all of them confused.
@@NyghtWolf My apologies if i caused any offence or embarrassment, that was not my desire at all i assure you
I simply meant to put the correct names/terms out there
I think such things are especially important, when dealing with YTers, who are in fact passing on information, or educating other people, perhaps you didnt consider yourself an educator, but younger people especially may be learning things for the first time from you, and thats something you should take pride in :)
Anyway as i say my desire was not to mock, demean or cause any discomfort whatsoever
There is never shame in not knowing something never taught or understood
I firmly believe in the adage _"A rising tide lifts all boats",_ if a YT knows stuff, they can pass this along to their viewers, and ultimately humanity just got a little better, even if in a very small way
And as i already said your guide is a good one, you explain things very well, very clear, the demonstrations are spot on, and it should help many people
The fact i knew most of this already is irrelevant, i will always watch such things in case i learn just one more thing
❤
PS sorry for long posts, im old, as well as old fashioned, i cant seem to convey all i need to convey in short snappy replies 😄
you just cant lock any boxes or tables lol
Ohh shit, that must be more of a feature of some mods I'm using. I know they had it for doors, but I honestly thought they had finally added it to boxes finally- Guess not! Sorry about that lol
@@NyghtWolf i think its more that asa is broken than anything
It’s not an octagon. It’s a septagon. Octagon has 8 sides.
