Shad Facts: (Shad's home is his castle) Shad has has finally completed the moat but apparently due to some archaic law in Australia he needs 3 different building permits for a draw bridge.
Jabun The Wanderer yes the bridge itself requires one, the draw mechanism requires one, and like any good castle, the 6 foot elevated landing pad needs one.
I always kinda thought that one could use a heavy-duty garage door setup to make a drawbridge. Always wanted to try to make it work TBH. Would this be a functional workaround?
Crazy thing is, I'm sitting here thinking 'wow, that's huge! Must be done soon', I look down, and I'm about halfway through the video... Shad, you have far outdone yourself!
Yes perfect balance, proportion, shape, form, and function. It has grit and robustness. Beautiful peice of art it is. Only if i could build something that scale in official pvp without it getting destroyed by a god.
I now officially hate you Shad! Just got the game last week, and homeless people sneer at my building attempts! Seriously, though, beautiful work man, love your channel!
Really nice design , I'm currently trying to do this is singleplayer (no cheats and with iron tools) , I'm at 3:10 so far EDIT 1 : Got to 6:00 in first day (half a day) material is sandstone by the way
I do hope we'll get to see vids about you and the clan going around, building and chilling and having a good fun and creative time. I can just imagine the brainstorming and such on castles or temples or fortresses and how they decorate their rooms and such.
@Srithor a universe with an undesirable percentage of folks who must needs deconstruct a joke about a joke about a video about a channel about pop- culture.
Love this channel! Love castles! I'm doing a European tour with my college jazzband next year, hopefully will get to see some of these historic masterpieces!
Sweet baby Jesus... The company should pay you for starring your castles as main actors in future promo videos. This video definitely check-marks the "awesome stuff seen this month" for sure.
I remember building a cube in this game a while back. It had a door and half the inside area had a second floor. I feel like I need to install it again and restore my honor now.
I've been trying to figure out how to make a nice transition to a thing that is sticking out of a wall, really good use of roof pieces I'm going to use that idea right away.
Great stuff. Pretty much everyone else on my server builds nasty block houses, but you inspired me to try something a bit more aesthetic, appropriate and ambitious (even though it is a PVP server and might all get torn down). I also try to build asymmetrically to keep it more interesting, the drawback being it can be hard to ensure everything joins up properly.
Never new you did videos like this, just spent close to 8 hours making a castle thanks for the inspiration, my first attempt at building i had just uninstalled this game, but after a few square buildings and a pretty broke tower i have something that resembles a castle, my onle issue is i wish i would of switched up the block types i used to add some more detail.
Very very versatile castle build/layout. It is expandable as well. You can start with a larger core and towers with smaller towers. The towers do not have to be round but the same across from each other.
Looks awesome. Yet doesn't it snow up north? And wouldn't that prove problematic with all those flat roofs? Also: waiting for the day they introduce machicolations in conan.
Thank you very much for that awesome design. Rebuild it on official server and it looks amazing. Thank you very much. That video helps me to understand how complex the building system really is. Thank you.
So, fifth I suppose? Also *insert last time I was this this early joke, obligatory pommel joke, obligatory dragon joke, and obligatory machiculation joke*
Ok, 2 things here. First of all, I have not yet watched your analysis of the castle so you might address it there. Secondly, I have not played the game (but I tempted now). With that being said; what about MACHICOLATIONS?????
Hey Shad I watched your other video and you said something about making the upper part of the keeps wall thicker but would sacrifice the windows.Maybe you could make the triangle foundation to go up the entirety of the wall but the square or cube part a window wall.
Maybe you could have the makers of the game sponsor your videos, but instead of them giving you money, they promise that they'll add... MACHICOLATIOOOOOONS!!! to the game?
When i first saw this: OOH Shad building a castle! Then the war horns sounded as he was building what i assume is the main keep (Haven't finished watching it) : Oh sod off mate... You know what i love! If i was a lady i would give ye thy hand.
Why do I get the feeling that even if you were playing Subnautica, you'd still find a way to build an awesome multi-story castle complete with outer wall defenses using nothing but underwater base components?
After getting this on ps4 I tinkered around with castle building. I built a keep for 2 using similar methods shad shows off. It's not as large, but there's a natural bridge to tbe place and it's in a bandit infested territory (black hand??? Cant remember). I call it Twins Peak. Anyway just wanna say that this video inspired me to build in Conan. But I dont think I can top your designs.
Shad, on 8:19 you couldn't place 2 wedges and you placed pillars under to fix that problem, but on the next floor at 10:13 you placed them without pillars. How? Looks like you edited video? Did you place pillar under or?
@13:26 expecting mostly left handed attackers? & are you sure those upper walls are 1m thick? :P outside the gatehouse would that not be a good place to move the stairs farther out & add a drawbridge? it is after all one of those things you said about some of the castles you reviewed all these connan video's are starting to make me want to buy the game to build castles.... :/ but its $50 & i know castles take a while to build, & my Internets shit so the download would take forever... hmm..... :/
Dude, what the actual hell? This might just be the coolest anything I have seen someone build inside a video game, second only to that guy who made Pokemon in Minecraft.
I'm currently playing Fallout 4 and I can't stop to think about how nice it would be to have a building system like this in Fallout 4, however I don't know wether it would fit stylisticly. I was inspired by your video on Fallout 4 to build my own base. I chose the light house as a location to build a fortress/castle that is functional and self sufficent. My idea is to connect the walls wit the light house itself and use it as a watchtower. What do you think about the location? Do you have any tips? (I'm using the vanilla version of the game but I have all DLCs)
Shad, you should look up the TH-camr by the name of J0hnbane, he makes some massive and quite impressive builds and he does it all without spawning in anything. His latest build is in the swamp/jungle area and it's huge and looks pretty much raid proof as well.
It would be really helpful if you put a materials list in the description you know like x amount of wedge foundations used, that way it can help people ( specifically me) figure out how many mats need to be farmed up to attempt this build please and thanks :)
Does someone know what you need to build this castle ( I mean the exact numbers of foundations etc. ) please if you know answer because I want to recreate this castle in game 😊

Shad Facts really?
Jabun The Wanderer yes the bridge itself requires one, the draw mechanism requires one, and like any good castle, the 6 foot elevated landing pad needs one.
I would like to subscribe to Shad Facts, Another! *smashes mug*
I always kinda thought that one could use a heavy-duty garage door setup to make a drawbridge. Always wanted to try to make it work TBH. Would this be a functional workaround?
How many crocodiles are currently in the moat?
Love how you're able to make functional stuff, but still keep it cool on a fantasy level
Crazy thing is, I'm sitting here thinking 'wow, that's huge! Must be done soon', I look down, and I'm about halfway through the video... Shad, you have far outdone yourself!

I wa always the kind of person to design and build stuff, seeing this video makes me happy.
I now officially hate you Shad! Just got the game last week, and homeless people sneer at my building attempts! Seriously, though, beautiful work man, love your channel!
I have a square.....with a door.....
DaiReith i have a door with a square
I just have a square!
Really nice design , I'm currently trying to do this is singleplayer (no cheats and with iron tools) , I'm at 3:10 so far

I would get sick of those floaty hands in two minutes. The things Shad endures to get a castle...
2 videos in 1 day this is great. Keep up the good work good sir.
last time i was this early shad had a dragon of his own
Am I the only one who died when he leaned out from behind the chair in the intro?
How's heaven treating you, bud?
😄
@Srithor there's no internet in hell, so he must be in heaven.
@Srithor yeah, where I'm stuck with wooshy washy wishful wannabe intellectuals like you.

@Srithor oh mommy, I'm crushed! It's because I'm brown, isn't it?

A pocket castle, now that is something to behold.
Btw ever since the Vanberg saga has began, I'm in love with this channel.
I've been trying to figure out how to make a nice transition to a thing that is sticking out of a wall, really good use of roof pieces I'm going to use that idea right away.

Great build! A friend and I just completed this build with a few modifications! Absolutely in love with the castle vibe.
Very very versatile castle build/layout. It is expandable as well. You can start with a larger core and towers with smaller towers. The towers do not have to be round but the same across from each other.
that is really impressive . really nice job shad.
I don't see how anyone can click that dislike button other than just to do it this build is awesome just like all your other videos
this only proves if shad builds your castle, he make's your castle grand and great
Fantastic! one of the best things I have seen you build in a game!
cool work shad.. it looks friging awesomeeee
Man, this is amazing! Just picked up this game, and the possibilities for building are astounding.
You bastard. I had to buy the game because of this. I love castle designing.
Looks awesome.
Yet doesn't it snow up north?
And wouldn't that prove problematic with all those flat roofs?
Also: waiting for the day they introduce machicolations in conan.
im planning to switch to sp soon so i can start building grand defensible castles im even planning tour videos on my main channel.
very cool I like it. I was thinking about getting this game. have a good one.
Wait for Steam summer sale.
It will be in 2 weeks max.
Thank you very much for that awesome design. Rebuild it on official server and it looks amazing. Thank you very much. That video helps me to understand how complex the building system really is. Thank you.
Love it dude. It inspired me to build my own castle. Not quite as elaborate but I'm happy with it.
I feel inspired by this, real great design, looking forward to the tour.
Love it. Would love to have the plans and hear your thoughts on bench placements, etc...
Here is the usual full support for your videos.
So, fifth I suppose?
Also
*insert last time I was this this early joke, obligatory pommel joke, obligatory dragon joke, and obligatory machiculation joke*
Last time I was early The dragons were defeated by pommel wielding machicolations.
Ok, 2 things here. First of all, I have not yet watched your analysis of the castle so you might address it there. Secondly, I have not played the game (but I tempted now).
With that being said; what about MACHICOLATIONS?????
My thoughts exactly.
I hope we'll get to see some more Conan Exiles videos from you, and seeing you make more buildings.
Hey Shad I watched your other video and you said something about making the upper part of the keeps wall thicker but would sacrifice the windows.Maybe you could make the triangle foundation to go up the entirety of the wall but the square or cube part a window wall.
And here I was, happy about making a 2 story square. Well done!
Maybe you could have the makers of the game sponsor your videos, but instead of them giving you money, they promise that they'll add...
MACHICOLATIOOOOOONS!!!
to the game?
Tobias Hagström you are one of the few comments he didn’t like you are worthless
@@lewistranmer2399 u just need to chill
Thanks Shad. Now I'll be able to build something that isn't just a tower with a fence around it.
I'm just loving the Conan exiles theme. I'm really considering getting the game.
please tell me where this location is nearby? i have been trying to find this exact spot for 4 hours now.
8 G
I rebuilt this with the nemidian build set just the other day so awesome
i'd like to see more of your Conan castle designs
Where’d you find the music, It’s epic
Hello at 10:16 how do you get the last two insulated Wooden Wedge's in with out adding a 2 pillars?
When i first saw this: OOH Shad building a castle!
Then the war horns sounded as he was building what i assume is the main keep (Haven't finished watching it) : Oh sod off mate... You know what i love! If i was a lady i would give ye thy hand.
Love your builds shad
Nicely done Shad! I might have preferred a slightly slower speed build, but still cool to watch it go up so quickly.
You're a HaCkEr MAN!!! Awesome build man
Why do I get the feeling that even if you were playing Subnautica, you'd still find a way to build an awesome multi-story castle complete with outer wall defenses using nothing but underwater base components?
That would be amazing!
Because he would.
After getting this on ps4 I tinkered around with castle building. I built a keep for 2 using similar methods shad shows off.

Anyway just wanna say that this video inspired me to build in Conan. But I dont think I can top your designs.
this must of taken hours and even a few days to complete. im very impressed 8)
Thanks for the video and for the build ideas! Built this on my server with the aquilonian dlc and love it! 🤗
Awesome! And the building engine isnt bad either on this by the looks of it!
10:16 couldn’t fit the two wedges into position there on the floor?
A 26 minute speed build? Hell fucking yeah!
love the channel..
love the game C E..
love the builds you do..
i like building ancient civs..
athens, alexandria, teotihuacan...
Impressive castle.
Shad, on 8:19 you couldn't place 2 wedges and you placed pillars under to fix that problem, but on the next floor at 10:13 you placed them without pillars. How? Looks like you edited video? Did you place pillar under or?
Hexagon is the bestagon,congrats sir this is the Best castle
Shad, how do you get around the 'Building here would block your spawnpoint' thing? That has been my single biggest restriction to building so far.
The building of Conan is so damn cool. Wish the game itself was too so I could keep playing.
I would love to see a video of you defending it, to see how it holds up
@13:26 expecting mostly left handed attackers?
& are you sure those upper walls are 1m thick? :P
outside the gatehouse would that not be a good place to move the stairs farther out & add a drawbridge? it is after all one of those things you said about some of the castles you reviewed
all these connan video's are starting to make me want to buy the game to build castles.... :/ but its $50 & i know castles take a while to build, & my Internets shit so the download would take forever... hmm..... :/
Is there a way I can get a copy of the plans for this I love the look and would love to try and build it myself.
i LOVE LOVE LOVE THIS BUILD!
This is good work! 👍
Just made it
Thanks Love it 👍
Why do you built it without machicolations?
Awesome job👍🏻👍🏻
is the music in this video the game soundtrack?
Dude, what the actual hell? This might just be the coolest anything I have seen someone build inside a video game, second only to that guy who made Pokemon in Minecraft.
Love this castle nice job
Damn that edit at 10:16 didnt get to see how you fixed the stability issue wit hthe 2 wedge floor pieces
I'm currently playing Fallout 4 and I can't stop to think about how nice it would be to have a building system like this in Fallout 4, however I don't know wether it would fit stylisticly.

Do you have any tips? (I'm using the vanilla version of the game but I have all DLCs)
how did you fix the central ring, pillar doesn't seem to work on the later rings
Do you use the rooms under the balconies or are they wasted space?
absolutely amazing!
Would be fun building an fortified Stygian ziggurat/pyramid, hope they add more setite/stygian fashion, theres some nice snake 🐍 statues at least
Shad, you should look up the TH-camr by the name of J0hnbane, he makes some massive and quite impressive builds and he does it all without spawning in anything. His latest build is in the swamp/jungle area and it's huge and looks pretty much raid proof as well.
Going to try and build this castle 🤘😁🤘
I would love to get the actual plans you used for this would like to try and recreate it on my server
How much Matt’s am I gonna need
I am really curious, how much buildings pieces did it took to build the whole thing?
Could you maybe build a pyramid fortress/castle of some kind? In Sketchup, Conan exiles, it does not matter. I find pyramidal buildings very exciting.
Curious how many build pieces go into this.
I love how the speed build is longer than the explanation
Love your work. Do you have lets build video's? Ik love to learn this kind of stuff.
Shad wath mod are you using to oberlap walls and foundations?
I like to fit my castles to the geography if they're near cliffs, or make fancy patterns if they're on open land.
I like how you didn't have a set idea, and instead you showed how you changed things as you went.
It would be really helpful if you put a materials list in the description you know like x amount of wedge foundations used, that way it can help people ( specifically me) figure out how many mats need to be farmed up to attempt this build please and thanks :)
name of the soundtrack at the start?
Wow!!! That castle is awesome and now I have to try and make it... where on the map did you build this??
Does someone know what you need to build this castle ( I mean the exact numbers of foundations etc. ) please if you know answer because I want to recreate this castle in game 😊
