100 Days in Vintage Story: Desert Challenge (Hardcore Edition)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 22 ноя 2024
- After conquering the Arctic in Vintage Story, I set on a sweaty adventure in the Desert. There are 99 problems: including crop failures, desert predators, nasty drifters, massive cave-ins and many other obstacles to overcome. Will I survive in the desert heat or succumb to this harsh environment. If this interests you. Join me, we have a desert to conquer.

Great video! Cant wait for the 200 days video!
That's up next! I got big plans for that video.
Yesssssssssssssss
One tip for next challenges, saltpeter only works for crops that use potasium (K), you can use bonemeal for phosphorus (P) or compost for nitrogen (N).
Saltpeter has 13% Nitrogen as well. It's a small amount but it was still something. Worth applying to sunflowers which is what I did!
I imagine a hot temperatuure and heavy precipitation with dense foilage generation would make an interesting and near impossible to traverse tropical vibe.
Dunno if it'd be playable or good for a player's sanity though
Yes that's exactly what happens if you do that! The world becomes a huge jungle/rainforest. It's the type of world I want to do one of my 100 Days in the future. It's very neat.
When you get around to that one, I sincerely wish you good fortune.
I can't imagine the rainforest being forgiving in terms of terrain and wildlife
@@briannaherrington949 can't be harder than the Arctic 🥶

@@blazingsummit AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
By breaking the top part of the cactus you also broke a reusable saguaro fruit spawn...
Yep, someone pointed it out. I had no idea. Regardless they served their purpose.
It triggered me so much i had to stop the video lol
That was a fun adventure! I enjoy your dedication to getting an aesthetic build done AND getting to steel, all in under 100 days. I think the QPTech Chisel Tools mod would help facilitate your detailing phase, though, and might let you fit in a lot of the details that you said you wished you could have gotten to! :)
I have my eye on the QPTech chisel mod. I will start using it, when I design my next build on creative. Thanks for watching! It's a little surreal to see you here, since you were the first Vintage Story creator I watched myself.
@@Oscillascape :D I like to see what everyone else is up to, too! I highly recommend Chisel Tools. It literally makes chiseling like 20x faster, when you're doing projects with large amounts of similarly-shaped blocks.
@@Kurazarrh Yes, vanilla way of doing chiseling is a bit tedious. It's OK for one off creative piece, but if you need a lot of repeating patterns it gets a bit much. Not sure what mod adds but having a pattern selector like when you are doing clay and custom voxel brushes would be dope, along with an ability to replicate simple designs faster.
@@Oscillascape ChiselTools and Workbench Extended both offer methods of replicating designs. ChiselTools is much more flexible but requires you to get to the iron age first, while Workbench Extended is available as soon as you get copper.
@@OscillascapeThe pantograph tool with the chisel tools mod is great for that, allowing you to copy and paste shapes with a single click. :)
killed the hyena parents in front of the child and left it on it's own to starve and unable to protect itself:"i'm not a monster"
XD
Sometimes you have to set an example for the wild life. They pick on innocent seraphs that are minding their own business all the time.
Your initial trader shelter is exactly what I did on my first 1.18 game. Though I quickly learned bears could climb right over the 3 block high wall. Eventually it expanded to 4 high and the area got larger but I left the enclosure after building a house nearby, replacing the dirt with real fences since bears couldnt climb that and it provided a better view of the lake and forest for my best friend and survival goods provider.
No bears in the desert, thank God! The merchant trick is very nifty tech, too bad sometimes they spawn with no storage in the cart.
@@Oscillascape Check the back side of the cart, sometimes there is a full chest there, and sometimes the music player is there too.
15:41 kind of cool to see the mini map change so much from this
Agreed, it's fun to see minimap grow with new additions. VS minimap is very good at translating shapes and layers from in-game.
Should decreased forestation and shrubs? That was easy actually, there should have been an alternative to freezing like dehydration which requires eating of watery fruits or something. I am suprised there isn't a mod for that.
I think there needs to be a penalty to hot temperature just like cold. Some way to cool off. Maybe by swimming in the water and becoming wet and a thirst mechanic. If VS wants to be a gritty survival game, that all makes sense.
I saw how much work it took to create this video. I praise your dedication and passion, my man. Amazing!
Yessir!
Maaan, I remember the grind to get to steel. What a fantastic game.
Steel grind is a big task in Vintage Story, that's for sure.
Honey, oscillascape just dropped another banger, come get some popcorn.
Thank you for the effort man, very appreciated. I love these.
Haha. Get the popcorn ready 👍 glad you liked it.
Two things with chickens, they should be located somewhere far enough away from your main place of activity so that you aren't constantly spooking them (which you mentioned in video), and put the feed troughs right up against the nest boxes so that they never have to leave them when brooding. I've always had great success with them this way!
Good tips thanks! I tend to default to the easiest things, so never bother with higher demand farms. But I should def give chickens a better try.
I like the idea of a 100 days on a small island
It's one of the challenge runs I had in mind. Hopefully sometimes this year!
@@Oscillascape Awesome
Been loving these videos, making me want to try out VS too. Before your channel, I had only ever seen people play it for the first time, it’s refreshing to see someone play who knows the mechanics! :)
Thanks. I have put a lot of hours into this game. Hopefully, I can be a guide and inspiration for people to play this game differently!
What a great build location. I never would have thought of that.
Granted, this is a bad idea for a standard world spawn. It would be far too cold in most worlds. In the desert though, it works perfectly!
I'm still in the first few minutes of the video, but I had to post an "oh no" when I saw you cut off the tops of those saguaro cactuses... they don't grow back! You need to just hold right-click down on the fruit part that's on the very top of the cactus. Though please do correct me if I'm wrong and they do grow back...
You might be right about them not growing back. I didn't know about being able to collect them by hand. Also it's a real shame you can't uproot Saguaros to plant elsewhere. Should be a feature!!
@@Oscillascape It would be neat to be able to replant saguaro, but it wouldn't be realistic. They are apparently EXTREMELY slow-growing. So maybe planting & growing them like they're trees, with growth times on the order of redwoods, might be appropriate.
It would be great if VS had prickly pear cactus in addition to saguaro. In the right environment, prickly pear will grow quickly and create a ton of fruit. Had it in front of my house in California and we had some neighbors stop by every time it fruited asking if they could harvest the fruit. We got cactus jelly each time as a thank you gift. Good stuff!
I really like how Egyptian the base ended up looking
I was going for an Egyptian/Aztec vibe on this one. Hence the use of sandstone and being a pyramid shape!
Termites have really good food sat and the mounds offer quite a lot. You can essentially live off them for years in your area.
I haven't used the termites at all, but I do know they can be food. Honestly hunting in the Desert was so effective that food was never a problem for long.
Very neat so far! In the future could you post a mod list? I was pretty surprised when you started making plugs out of nowhere XD
I normally do. It's been pretty similar for all my videos. If you go look at the Plains and Valleys description, it will be the same. I haven't added any new mods. I'll post a list for this one in the description today again at some point. Stone Quarry for me is a core mod. I will most likely always run it until stone can be acquired reasonably in vanilla.
Amazing adventure well played! Thanks!
Thanks for watching!
I love watching your videos! Have watched em all twice now (third time for this one). I really like how dedicated you are, inspires me to keep working hard at the stuff i enjoy too. Your videos make doing beadwork, homework, etc so much more enjoyable. I sincerely hope you get some more subscribers soon, have already hooked two of my pals on your videos and they love them too.
I hope you have a great day/night, and thank you for creating :)
Wow thanks! Really sweet comment. I think I always had a weird tendency of being able to do repetitive work. Some of my friends called me autistic based on my videos. I don't like downplaying the word at all, just reporting some of the commentary. I like seeing things come together over time!
@@Oscillascape pfft, checks out. I used to get told i was too, so i got tested. Found out i do in fact have autism- thats unfortunately paired with adhd so i cant focus on things very well. Your videos definitely help occupy my mind, especially with my really, really boring college courses.
Repetitive tasks are the best, probably why i rewatch your videos so much (and videos in general). Always nice returning to a great video over and over again.
Would love to see you play other games too (aside from minecraft) if that ever strikes your fancy! Try not to overwork yourself, do what makes you happy, yno?
Thank you again for creating! Looking forward to more ^^
@@sweetdewn6694 haha I play Vintage Story now mostly, but dully noted! I do want to do other games and have some projects slated for the next year. It's hard to say no to success when your channel is suddenly pumping and everyone wants Vintage Story videos.
@@Oscillascape oh god yeah, vintage story is really starting to pick up. Your videos are really high quality too, so im sure that helps with the algorithm lol.
I hope you continue to enjoy playing vintage story, i know in the plains and valleys 2 video you said it wasnt super fun building up the foundation for the mega build. I just hope you do what you enjoy doing, rather than what everyone else likes. Important to take care of yourself, people can be bruuutal. Youve got this though, youre smart.
Excited to see what you have planned next >:)
You probably know this mod but: The Foundry mod: it allows you to make 2 new molds, one that can cast 12 ingots at a time, and larger version that allows 24 at a time. Not too expensive, but saves on having ingot molds everywhere. If you are interested .
@@grannyswatchingu7060 I'll check it out. I am always looking for new quality of life mods. Thanks for the idea!
Hey man, really love putting your videos on in the background to have something interesting I can always glance at while I do something else. So wanted to tell you thanks and I appreciate the amount of work you put into your videos! good luck on your journey man
Thanks! I am glad you find my videos entertaining enough to do that. It means a lot when people say stuff like this. Gives me the drive to keep making more!
Nice work dude love the Series
Glad you like it. There will be more!
Cant wait
That was a great play through and a beautiful base.
Thank you! It turned out better than I anticipated, since for these challenges I don't develop anything in advance in creative.
There are 2 thirst mods now, may I request you redo this challenge with one of them. If anything it's a new video you can put out for us to enjoy.
They came out about 2 months after my attempt. I will definitely consider redoing it!
I just binge watching this game playthrough this night, damn...
want more :)
Another one is coming tomorrow!
@@Oscillascape alright, spent some on coffee earlier this night, orepared for anything, lel
Actually a Dune: Surviving Arrakis mod would be sick for this game.
You a big fan of big worms?
Nice job! It surely took a lot of time and efforts to make the video.
Yes, these 100 days take a lot of time and effort, but it's worth it in the end when people watch!
Great content as always
Great comment as always!
Ayyyeee did my man get a new mic or what? Sounds much clearer than your other 100 days vids for VS. I'm a fan of your videos, you fill a niche for me. There isn't really a whole lot of edited content for this game at the moment, it's mostly just long-plays and livestreams which are nice and all but VS is a slooooooow game, so its not exactly the most engaging watch when unedited IMO. Keep it up my guy and take care of yourself
Haha. Actually yes. I bought a new mic. Surprised someone noticed though. Yes VS has a surprising lack of edited stuff. I was really surprised to see only a single 100 Days video originally. I am happy to fill the niche, but I am sure more competition is coming soon. VS is a fantastic game that deserves a ton of creators!
If it’s not patched you can use a slab floor in places you don’t want to fully light up to stop anything from spawning
I have to test whether that still works! That would be a great hack for indoors.
@@Oscillascape I used it one of my old worlds I slabbed my basement and my first floor and never had spawn issues could have always been a fluke but I feel like at some point I would have gotten a spawn otherwise
Man i really love these series, keep the good work 👍
I will keep up the good work. Pinky promise. Many more ideas:)
@@Oscillascape :D
You should mark all ore on the surface as it is indicates ore below
I use auto map markers which does that automatically when you touch the ore.
I enjoy this series very much, I'd love to see a let's play series with similar editing from you as well :)
Let's Play would be a hard format for me to pull off with how chaotic my life is. Maybe I can do post-commentary, but I'm not sure. It's certainly something that is on my radar.
Cant wait for the 200 days!!
Me too. I am excited to work on a permanent world long term to see what it looks like in a few years.
Fun fact, a flat mountain is called a Mesa
Cool. Wonder why Minecraft's mesa has such tall mountains then. 🤔
Idea for a new one in like, a year or so, rainforest with you having to build in the trees
The rainforest was my next challenge video idea. But never considered building in the trees, that's an interesting take.
great vid once again really loved the non hardcore world run as well as you could do some janky stuff without ending that run
I think my next video after 200 days will be a wilderness survival non hardcore run!
@@Oscillascape oh nice thanks for the effort take your time mate
the more i watch you the more i realize you sound just like in game main character xD
Hey, that's what mom gave me 😂
Here we goooooo brah!
Here we go indeed! Hope you like it.
good news, thirst mods (2 even) have come out recently
I know, I saw them. Too bad they didn't have them at the time. Well, it gives me a reason to revisit the concept one day.
GGs Gamer After watching you i also wanna play this game 🎉
You should, it's really good and will only get better with time. Awesome investment.
Again very relaxing video :D
I hope that's a good thing!
урааааа новое видео, спасибо, жду пока яндекс переведет мне видео и посмотрю)))
Yandex can translate? I speak fluent Russian. I wish I could record in both languages:) maybe one day I can provide double audio tracks. RUclips needs that feature.
@@OscillascapeRUclips indeed has this feature! Large channels frequently use it to gain more reach. You can do the same thing with titles, translating them into different languages. However you'd have to make 2 voiceovers for an already very long Video. Nonetheless great work, keep it up! 👍
@@Nath-xu9qn I know. The voiceovers are a lot of work.
было бы здорово, если бы так получилось)))@@Oscillascape
im binging watching your videos omg
I am happy to hear that! Pleas enjoy.
who else was screaming at him to plug up the holes under the cart in the beginning
I know. It took me way too long to get around to doing that. Both the hyenas and drifters were a surprise initially. I did not expect them to freely fit under the cart. Everything after that was my own laziness and hubris.
You're really good
Thank you! That's very kind of you to say. Hopefully I will only get better.
Great video, love your content 🎉
So happy to hear. I will be making more!
Thx m8! Thx for another niiice movie! hope u doin great! ;))
I am doing just fine, thanks! Glad you liked it.
Great video honestly, but could you tell me the film at 0:53 I was trying to find this film for YEARS but I literally forgot the name of it. Thanks in advance ❤
The two movie clips I am using are Three Amigos and Sahara, but the one from 1995 with James Belushi not the 2005 one.
@@Oscillascape Thank you so much man. You have no idea for how long Ive been trying to remember the name of the movie 🤣
Mistake was, that I was searching it under the name of Tobruk for some reason even tho the movies are totally different.
Thank you so much again!
Nice video bro continue doing videos
That's the plan! I wish I was a teenager with infinite time, that's the only thing stopping me from cranking them out:)
It's fine bro don't rush @@Oscillascape
You finally made it! And also good video. May I ask what comes next?
200 Days Plains and Valleys world, then Jungle wilderness survival challenge.
Your house looks like a dessert template from minecraft lol
I often look at Minecraft creations to get inspired. So yes this was inspired by the desert temple, you are correct!
You wrote "dessert" as in something you eat after dinner rather than "desert." It's in the title of the video.. and what's a desert template?
Sorry to be that type of person, but may I ask, is something wrong with my reproductors, or is your microphone set to have a "high note" to your voice? You have nice and calming voice, but it sometimes spikes very high.
Btw. Amazing video. Just discovered you and I can say, I'm already looking forward to watching all of your videos. Keep up the great and amazing work.
No worries. I think that my mic placement is not the greatest. My recording conditions have been pretty bad ever since I started the channel. Also my voice acting is just inconsistent. The audio track is a compilation of best takes and the total recording time is like 4 hours. My voice gets tired, I have to do retakes. Hopefully I can improve my voice and I am about to move to a house so I can have a dedicated recording space. Glad you liked the vid! 😁
@@Oscillascape sorry, if I said something mean. Didn't meant to. I hope you'll continue recording and will enjoy your new home. And btw. Rest is very important. If you dont feel like continuing the video, just dont do it. Nothing will hapoen if you release video one or two days later than you anticipated or wanted.
Remember: Your comfort and health is always number one. Anything else can wait. But your mood and rest can't... It's really better to rest for few hours, than later feel exhausted, angry and "disgusted" because you're recording and you don't enjoy it.
Maintain yourself. Cause it would be shame. Once again, great vid and I really enjoyed it.
That's barotrauma damage.
Haha, we got a diver in the comments 🤕
i wonder if overheating will be a mechanic in the future it seems like it might
It needs to be if freezing is going to be a thing.
Once they implement overheating mechanics these worlds are going to be just as bad as the arctic.
Luckily for you , you didn't do what I did once and lower the tree count. While realistic it was horrible having to go from tiny tree patch to the next widley spaced tiny tree patch, while starving.
I was surprised by the amount of trees available that is for sure. Certainly this wasn't that challenging.
Very cool!
Could you write down your mods?
So your saying you want a thirst mod. and I am interested in learning VS modding...
Two thirst mods actually come out since then!
@@Oscillascape ha fairs
great video :)
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed it.
For meat preservation, I though you've found salt actually.
I didn't find any. In fact I have yet to ever find salt naturally. I could have bought it from traders, but honestly little point. There isn't a huge reason to preserve meat when it's so easily avalible in the desert.
@@Oscillascapeeven more when you consider that Gazelles have more meat than Moose and Sheep combined. While also dropping fat.
Balanced Thirst mod exists now, it has pee mechanics
Yes, I preceded the mod by about 2 months. There are two mods actually that came out recently, which warrants another exploration of a hot climate!
What is the name of the mod that allows you to make plugs and chisel the tons of smooth stone?
Stone quarry!
There's now two thirst mods
I saw! What a shame they came out a few months too late, maybe I'll try another dry adventure with the new thirst mods at some point.
the G in "saguaro" is silent.
Really? That's good to know. Learn something new everyday!
@@Oscillascape Yeah! I live in Arizona and we have tons of those things around here lol Basically just sounds like "suwaroh"
This game reminds me of the minecraft terrafirmacraft mod , you could check it out if you want to and maybe do a video ?
Yes! I think the game is inspired by the mod. I think I only have time to record and play one game. Vintage Story scratches the itch. Thank you for the suggestion though.
What version of VS is this?
1.19.3 with a few mods. I'll post a list of mods in the description later today, but it's the same as my Plains and Valleys video as far as mods go.
Why did you spend your precious early game time on panning boney soil, it doesn't drop clay/nuggets lol
It drops many valuables which you can sell. You see me sell quite a few gems and such, and then buy vessels to help me with clay and reeds for rope.
how do I play this
You can buy the game from their website
You buy it from their website, just type Vintage Story on Google.
I don't really like the new hand models for the game, I think they take too much space in the screen
I didn't like them at first and was wondering why you couldn't turn them off. But apparently it's because they will design combat around the new animation. I don't mind them now though.
there's at least three different thirst and heat mods. all have been out for awhile, even before this video. so you must not have looked very hard for them.
@@spicydeath82The earliest came out 2 month after this playthrough. No need to be snarky🙃
Vintage Story better than Minecraft
They are different and Minecraft is still great, but I do prefer Vintage Story now!
the newscaster voice can get a little draining
Fair enough. I am still experimenting with my voice and style that works. My narration can be a bit grating.
Fun Fact: Bones give you 9.0 N when applied twice to the soil. You have to grind it first into bonemeal
Says it only has 3 N per application on wiki. It's something, but almost not worth it.
@@Oscillascape That is true, but when applied twice you get 9 N. With the primitive survival mod, worms are also a good source of passive fertilizer. They also produce their own passively. Meat when 6 or 9 can be tied int trussized meat and smoked for extra days. Fish meat also counts. Bushmeat can be cut into jerky which is automatically cured for extra days. Quick source of food for long day travels. Normal meats aquired from pigs work too
Больше испытаний по этой игре. У тебя хорошо получается.
Spasibo bratan! Prihodi potom, budet eshe!
@@Oscillascape An idea for the next challenge. Try to live in a world where 80-90% of the territory is occupied by the ocean. At the same time, the height of the world should be higher than 256 blocks.
