🛠️ Enshrouded Showcase - 30+ hours of building 🛠️

[TheOrigin]

Hey everyone - i hope you enjoy Enshrouded as much as i do, so here is my first building project. Took me 30+ hours to farm and create the whole project, after the initial 40 hours to reach max level.

I had a vision in mind but adapted on the way due to problems with the building system or missing features. Turned out really nice anyway and i hope you like it as much as i do!

This isn't my first rodeo with a voxel based building system, ~10 years ago i already created tutorials for "Landmark", a pre alpha version of Everquest Next.

I will also create a tutorial video on the tips and trick i found along the way of this journey, but it depends on your feedback =)

Have fun!

(If someone wants to see it ingame- text me and i will host a game so you can have a look for yourself)

update:

Thank you for all your kind feedback here and on YT, Reddit, Discord etc. I got ALOT of friend request and asked like 20 times to join a specific server to build there.

Sadly i cant join every server and i am already on a dedicated server with some friends. But thanks for asking Also there will be a new video in a couple of minutes and a tutorial (as promised) within the next 48 hours.

Stay tuned!

Wow! really great stuff.

I remember EQ Next/ Landmark, pity about that game.

[Privatelvl25]

That is pretty impressive. I couldn't manage building that in 1000 years let alone 30 hours.

Yeah that was a nice little game! I have 2 tutorial videos on my channel

Nice build. Impressive.

I always have a lot of ideas for these kind of games but usually lack the patience to actually execute it.

Did you farm all these resources or did u you use something like wemod?

I actually farmed all that - took me about 10 hours... I tried to use stone as main material and wood. But the libary with all the books .. took me a while. Good thing is - that castle is between two biomes and there are plenty of mines around it.

Awesome. Nice job

The access tunnels were a great idea, i really liked.

Thanks =) Glad you like it! I really had fun developing the plans and all the secret ways around the castle

Wow this is incredible! So awesome to see you make this so early into release, can't wait to see what you can build once you have even more time <3

This is impressive, would be cool if we could add NPCs that actually move around (not only static dools). But i doubt it, because pathing is a dark misstress, unless keen gives us the possibility to set/edit our own path nodes. ;-P

Yeah i wish they were more then lifeless "crafting stations". One option would be to make ALL recipes available at the actual workbench when you have the pre-requirements met, aka- placed down all crafting tables and objects they need. So they could remain in another build area.

In case you are wondering what building blocks i used - here is a quick overview:

Wow, that is truly amazing and very nice indeed. How do you unlock all those building materials and decorations? I have only unlocked a very few so far.

Good questions - i found them ALL along the way. Most of the times you find a note, a quest or something in the world (red glow) and it leads to a questchain or directly to a chest. Sometimes the quest reward is even visible in the questlog that you unlock a new material.

Others can be found around high difficulty areas, i.e. in suntemples!

If you explore every corner of the world you will find them all. I created a reference page with all materials i found already: https://theorigin.de/enshrouded-all-building-blocks/

There are many video guides out there how and where to find them, so i wont cover that topic additionally.
