most part of the ship was build by Satsaa, Great job man!
The ship is featured in a promo video / trailer for our server, with pirates on it shooting.

Thanks for this, although I figured it out myself it literally took hours of frustration to make it right. I found around 15 different ways to not build a ship. Probably one of the most difficult and frustrating ark building projects I've tried to do.

Where can i see the promo video for your server? I want to get a closer look at how that ship is.

See our website, it's on the frontpage of the website, link to website is in the description. (Strange you missed that, some people were already complaining we were promoting too much)

The information missing here in the description is, how actually to build so many fundaments wide and long. When trying it, I still cannot exceed to that amount. Any advise?

What I need to know is, how to build wider than 3 foundations on a raft. Please describe with text, I get Internet only through my mobile phone and they charge lots of money by the megabyte - cannot watch videos - too expensive. Thanks for your understanding and my apologies for the inconvenience.

Put celings on the outside of the raft and then you can place foundations under then till you reach the limit.

A ship for my RP server, ment to only be used against those breaking the rules and creating problems. Still has room for a catapuly, interior is pretty much hallow so lots of room for crafting ammo, fast repairs and attack dinos. S+ and this mod used, exterior still needs finishing touches like a couple of flags on the back. Battleship raft used.

It's nice to see other people's creations :D

It's quite a big raft but it covers everything I should need ingame for awhile, and being built with S+, easy to pull apart and reshape:)
Unfortunately, even thou I built the pen foundations up out of the water, the dinos are still being affected by water movement, thought for sure this would solve that, oh well.

Hey Paul,
same here, I actually took a few ideas from others rafts that I found on youtube and then added in my own crafting area design, with the wrap around balconies so I can easily shut the gates while trapping a dino to tame.
All I can think of, to stop the dinos moving around and clipping through walls, is maybe place railings on each side of the dino, other than that I'm lost as what to do....

Thought I'd share, Just completed my first tame on the above new raft, the goal was to find and tame an argentavis above level 100, found and successfully tamed a 270 Argentavis, came out as a level 344, so happy right now. Opens up the game alot.

Used the 3x3 doorframe Pen and lured it in with a Pteranodon. I replaced one back wall of doorframes with 2 pillars so I could fly my Ptera through and out of the pen.
