    I know this is super old and I don’t know if you’ll even see this but these videos are so cool. Great amount of time, and extremely informative. Very well done

    8:55 Just a heads up, the caves were not designed that way. Caves are slightly different because they have no side or front walls. That particular cave has 4 separate corners and 4 separate side walls. They are numbered accordingly, 1, 2, 3, 4. You need to place the pieces making sure they fit with the middle sections. Once you do, it will all fit perfectly. Not 100% if all caves work this way, I'm still learning myself. I would imagine they do though. Hope this helps. Great tutorials, by the way.

    Keep up the good work

    Sometimes I've found that replacing middle parts and/or rotating them gets rid of the seams, plus it adds a bit of ground variety, but nothing like covering them up with rocks, cliffs, pillars, etc. Nice tip.

  • @TheLordDaem

    I've already commented on one of your other videos, but thank you AGAIN!
    I've been wanting to bring Border Watch from Oblivion into Skyrim for ages, but haven't been able to think how. NOW it just makes sense to stick the small village in a cave system :)

  • @Xeranxies
    @Xeranxies 10 ปีที่แล้ว +6

    A slightly quicker way to build rooms is to hold CTRL and click on multiple objects/items then duplicate and rotate them.

    • @SamnissArandeen
      @SamnissArandeen 9 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      XerxiesLv426 THANK YOU FOR THIS TIP! :D I'm coming from the Source engine, duplication and rotation of halves is how I would quickly build symmetrical TF2 maps. It's nice to know Creation Kit lets me do, well, the same.

  • @BullDogBreed75
    @BullDogBreed75 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    Don't know if this has been said..but regarding seams in floor/ ceilings, the cave kits are directional just as ruins/ house kits are. If you use the correct walls and corners you won't get any seams. Naturally caves are very organic so it's not a big issue either way. Just duplicating and rotating walls is how you end up with seams.

    Thanks. I was having trouble with a cave yesterday. to the point where I scrapepd the whole thing. Nowwith is, I'm going to go back and add a proper cave.

  • @jimmysgameclips
    @jimmysgameclips 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    The way I check for seams and gaps is to turn off shadeless mode with 'A' and look for the very visible white holes. Although for gaps within an interior I gotta be a bit more meticulous

  • @jerzkid87

    Look in the "Door" tab of the creation kit for Auto Load door. For the rock static go to any exterior cave cell and copy the rock static there.

  • @TastyBega
    @TastyBega 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Nice work mate, I am whats commonly called a complete Muppet when it comes to figuring this stuff out, your Videos have got me well hooked now on building a dungeon. (an getting completely out of control) lol....I didn't realize till the cave video I watched today that I even needed roofs hehe, but I did figure out how to add light to my torches etc, purely by accident so that's something at least.

  • @Troublesome2008
    @Troublesome2008 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @ReinThe
    First you select WorldObjects in the Object Window, than you select Static, and than you click on Mapmarker. You drag it to the Render Window and move to where ever you want it. Double-click it in the Render Window and click on the extra tab. Change the settings to what ever you like.

  • @hairgelvic

    Nice man thanks for all your help and stuff. When do you think your next tutorial will be ready ?

  • @LawlFrank
    @LawlFrank 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    If your world is called 'Somethingworld01' and you named it 'Pirates Cove', then you just start op skyrim and press ~ for console-acces. Then type coc Somethingworld01 and that will take you straight to the Pirates Cove as a standard lvl1 character and you can run around freely. You can add the dungeon to the world of skyrim later.
    Just check out Bethesda's tutorials (they are all on youtube and they are very helpful).

  • @spamhonx56
    @spamhonx56 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    this is probably too late to be any use of you, but your comment is a top comment, so this is for people who have the same question
    if you set filter to 'door' you will get some at the top that say 'autoloaddoor' which will appear in your dungeon as a green circle with a red circle inside. the gree circle shows the are where you'll be shown the cave's name, and the red area transports you to the cave. then you set it up like a normal door, with the teleport and exitpoint and all that.

  • @GAZArts
    @GAZArts 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Fantastic videos my cave indeed is looking pretty! sorry if you've answered this question already but i covered up the gaps in the flooring using dirt mounds and rocks ect but one problem i noticed is when you plop down a mid floor peace it gets placed down automatically with a ceiling mirroring the floor, which means it too has the same tears and gaps. How did you fix this?

  • @NylePudding
    @NylePudding 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @ForAdventure It's not a bug, the views stop at around 300 because youtube is checking if the views are unique or not. Before, people could download programmes that woudl constantly refresh for hours giving them thousands of views. Just a random fact. =P

  • @skylordgaming6273
    @skylordgaming6273 11 ปีที่แล้ว

    yah. different cave walls fit to different cave corners and stuff. however, his way could make a more unique cave. but place a cavewalllarge or whatever they are called have designations at the end (01, 02, etc) 01 fits to 01 on one side an 02 on another. 02 fits to 02 on one side and 03 on another. 03 fits to 03 on one side and 04 on another 04 fits to 04 on one side and 01 on another. they go 1, 2, 3, 4 as you go around the room. Bethesda's tutorial covers this.

  • @tak1333
    @tak1333 12 ปีที่แล้ว

  • @YocaherSkyrim
    @YocaherSkyrim 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Suggestion for anyone: If you want to be able to see more when checking your environments. I recommend increasing your field of view, via the console, to 100. The console command is: "fov 100" without the quotation marks.

  • @Stitchnsmoke
    @Stitchnsmoke 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @iaMyla If you check the Bethesda Creation Kit website with all the tutorials, they tell you how to add a COC. There's also a video on youtube that shows you how to add your house/dungeon to the world, along with adding map markers so you can discover and Fast Travel to the location, as well as how to slip in load doors and COC locations so that you can gain entry to your new place from Skyrim :) Hope this helped :D

  • @Cheebahh
    @Cheebahh 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Hey dude thanks for all the help. Are you eventually going to get to outside/landscaping? And you explain how to get the gizmo movements to be shorter/more precise? When rotating sarcophagus lids and the like the have a tendency to sit awkwardly.

  • @willgameshd7821

    @ForAdventure Hey, I have made a little first time dungeon and I have been trying to find out how to set the player spawn point, so when you enter the dungeon, you'll spawn at the start. Can you tell me how or will it be in another video?
    Btw, great vids mate! Very Helpful!

    The cave system have 4 different walls, which needs to be placed on the rignt sides of the mid piece. If you do it right there won't be any gaps.

  • @bluesight_

    where are the cave exits, the tunnels with light at the end that are the "doors" to outside

  • @pyyrzi
    @pyyrzi 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    Thank you for previous help. Have u tried use cave secret doors? Because I have tried but when I go into game I cant open that door. Do I need to set some kind of switch somewhere? If you are going to make doors in further videos it would be great if u use secret door or if u can just tell how to get that door open :) Btw very nice videos!

  • @nomaddc00
    @nomaddc00 10 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    You're really doing it wrong. Caves like ruins have that weird "rule" about placing shell blocks - you want to use different corners for each corner (01, 02, 03, 04 for each corner, don't use the same one, you will get those seams!), and same goes for walls - you can't just duplicate them and rotate. If you do it properly - there will be absolutely no seams on the "ceiling" and floor.

  • @MiralGS
    @MiralGS 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    @ForAdventure tbh you should focus on things that the wiki doesn't have tutorials for, as Bethesda is covering the wiki tutorials in videos. More topics early on would be more beneficial to all than multiple vids on the same subject :D

  • @mikey29979

    Great tutorial mate, will use it when I get around to modding. Just a question and anyone can answer it, do these dungeons and caves make their way into Skyrim. For instance, I want to make a city or town and what it placed outside of whiterun, is this possible.? I know it will take time will making individual characters and quests but I plan on doing it. Cheers

  • @ripperz7924
    @ripperz7924 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    The Gaps int he cave floor are not how its supposed to be, you will have wall1, wall 2, wall 3 and wall 4 each are for the direction they are placed. Cave walls that are under the category hall/room you should not be rotating them, if the wall is facing east, its an east facing wall. The floor tile you place without rotation and 1 should be the north wall, 2 will be another side and so on, the corners there are 2 corners, corner 1 fits on top left and corner 2 fits top right and the same corners are used for the bottom left and right corners two, can't remember if they are inverted or not but doing this will leave no seam gaps what so ever with the cave building system. Caves are more crazy in design so yeah you really should be stepping out the box with the designs but if you have a 3x3 square cave room, and forced to cover loads of seams is bad practice. The floor debris meshes are supposed to be used to create unique clutter or shapes and shouldn't be used just to hide mistakes. Unless you are going well out of the basic cave shape design and need these to cover gaps when building advanced caves. But the basic cave system you made you wouldn't HAVE to use them, its just extra meshes for your system to load.

  • @NihongoWakannai
    @NihongoWakannai 12 ปีที่แล้ว

    the reason there are seams is because you have to use caveglroomwall01(02/03/04) you cant just rotate them because each one is made specifically for each side

  • @skylordgaming6273

There is a yellow thing outside of the exterior, when I click on it, it takes me to my dungeon in creation mode, but the dungeon doesn't have the yellow thing on it. In creation mode it does link back to the entrance from the exerior, but in the game I click the exterior entrance and I end up in an all black dungeon with no walls, etc.. Cant see a thing.

    Not at all how to make caves in Skyrim CK but whatever lol, using snap to grid makes it so much easier and most of the caves DO match up if you're using the right ones. You don't have to deal with seems and gaps. I say don't make a tutorial if you don't really know what you're doing. Other than that you did a great job on dungeon making.
