Just follow this general rule. Plan out your rooms ahead of time, lay down all the walls first. Then plan your room layouts by putting down carpet or whatever paths you want. Then create "zones" where you want specific things to be. For example, zone East of the house should be all related to crafting rooms. Or you can do like floor 1 will be for decoration purposes or split up. Also follow the motto "Less is best". Don't overcrowd on decorations and only place down things that make sense.

There are building plans at the end of this video. You can use them. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/rreGrJlyqrfGnas.html&ab_channel=OnFirePF

just make a top down layout in Autocad. lmao in all seriousness idk, Ive never played this game but if I was going to try and plan a layout of a building thats exactly what I would do, just srart with a top down general layout of the building in CAD, pretty sure you can get a one month trial for free. Maybe look around online for building layouts to get some ideas or creativity from existing or modern designs or something, or even designs from back in like the 1600-1800s

Used to be easier before the multiple floors update, you could just map the terrain you wanted to buy in square tiles and plan from there. The only thing I also like to fathom is to not try building a castle before you got most tier-2 decoration pieces. Trying to build something with only basic tier-1 pieces is a lot harder.

YEAAH!!

Btw, where did you find the pink tree seeds?

@@ArmandMeredith Whoa, thank you! the pink tree seeds can be found in dunley; mosswick, monastery and the cotton field north west of iron mine. There's also a white version you can farm at maja's tower in dunley, but I didn't know about those

@@HarpyEnjoyer Thanks. I'm off to farm them seeds!

ikr c':

I have too many windows, you cannot find them all

Thank you, unfortunately I did not keep track of the time. I have no idea how long it took

Same problem as you, i really wonders how it is possible to have the floating foundation 🤔

I think I just figured it out! You use "invisible foundations" to create interior balconies. Hope this helps someone.

@@Gavael Ohh! I totally went on a different approach but wow! thank you for that!

In castle foundation, there is a red border you can place to remove roofs

@@HarpyEnjoyer Okey i am definitely blind, thank you so much :)

@@HarpyEnjoyer Thanks a lot ! i searched a lot for this one 🙂

Clean and neat

If you do post it, I'd love to see it! I understand though, we're also not playing the game anymore. Once we reached endgame, we built our pve castles and then quit the game as there was nothing left to do.

Those are lightweavers, you can find them patrolling in silverlight city and the church area always has a guaranteed patrol of 2 lightweavers

@@HarpyEnjoyer Nice, I appreciate it.

It is a part of the new DLC

If you go into foundations, there is a red border and if you place it, it will remove roofs

@@HarpyEnjoyer Thank you very much

south west silverlight, but this was in the previous update

It was not modded, it was on official server, but this was in the previous update

Something like this would take a lot of hours lol

@@Natsuxc74 I was kidding. Scroll down 😉

I don't mind wipes. Gives me a reason to go to a different territory and build a new castle

They are locked away deep in our fortress and haven't seen the light of day since may 18th They are also extremely annoying to place in a castle

We are not on a PVE server so we are letting our shards in the PVP castle to have proper defense against raiders

@@HarpyEnjoyer you can place them in a castle but there cannot be afloor above them sadly

This require lot of time. That's why i dont like huge castles. I am more fan of smaller, like half castle half house type of "castle". I tried to build big one on my 3rd character, but gave up eventually.

Yes, this was on an official server and it was wiped, but there is an option when creating your own server to disable this (or set the timer to 1 year)

@@HarpyEnjoyer thanks for letting me know

kk getting married rn as we speak

only losers get married

It has everything except vermin nests and only a small garden. Everything is easily accessible and closely connected to the main storage. It's a PvE castle and has everything it needs. No need to vomit 50 stairs and erect 400 walls and honeycombs

"not functional" Clearly has made a huge ass and gorgeous castle with a none functional castle. Someone please make it make sense.
