Obi Wan Cannabi or make the hatch and hatch frame the same material as the floor, and then the walls and floor inside the box are metal or stone, still kills but it's more convincing
You've earned my subscribe. I kept almost going to look up how to do something then you teach me as I'm typing. Wasn't expecting to learn how to build on scorched I expected to just learn how insulation worked. Thanks a lot!
I've wanted these test results since Scorched came out. So glad you took the time and patience to do this for us. Thanks. If you have a Patreon, you should post a link in the description.
Makes sense a green house in the desert actually is suppose to keep heat out, that is the point in cold climates they are used to keep heat in, here in Arizona they are used to filter out some of the heat, but still allow sunlight.
Great video, I have learnt a lot from watching your stuff. Myself and friends also tested various buildings in scorched earth. It's worth noting that, pure metal buildings are so bad, that even if the outside temperature is below freezing, you will get cooked to death inside a metal building, or like that metal corridor of death on the outside of your middle metal wrapped adobe. Which we found to be a bit weird... So we have treated it kind of like a defensive feature, in that, if you can trap your attackers inside metal....
Oh we also literally filled that metal corridor of death with air conditioners to see if we could make it even remotely survivable for any time, and the best hyper insulation we could get was roughly -1000, including silly fortitude and desert gear.
+Ghost FacedNinja yea it's sometimes a bit weird how things work. Indeed specially weird of it's freezing outside and on the inside you will get cooked ;)

Nice! I started to play in the new DLC 3 days ago, I got raided twice... So I will build something like this. Do you have some tips for cementing paste?
I would say get some of those achatinas / giant snails for a cementing paste factory or use a good killer and go into the desert. There are tons of creatures that will give you chitin
Use metal if you want to have it warm..... well it burns you. I don't understand what you mean keeping you warm, because most of the time you want to stay cool. Hypoinsulation is for Cold and Hyperinsulation is for heat. Adobe is the best for SE
hahah maybe in the future sometimes I will use a webcam, but I don't have any now and not the room for it to record myself like that. But maybe more when I do streaming. For these videos it's not needed
Unless something has changed, the sloped roofs are purely aesthetic, the insulation value is calculated by the number of surrounding greenhouse surfaces, not affected by angle or anything else. ark.gamepedia.com/Greenhouse
yea it's hard, well at least for me XD But I know for a lot of other Dutch people it's also difficult to pronounce the "th". That's because we don't have that "th" in our language
Can you layer slope triangular roof pieces? I have made an type of piramid raft with stone on the outside and adobe on the inside. Not everything is flush. Have not headed to the hot zone yet. Still trying to combine materials.
Please show us how to work the wind turbine the way it should work. i put it on cables with a generator but when the wind turbine turns off my AC and stuff turn off. my generator does nothing
I love no collision build mod, but I've heard there are better mods now, don't know the names of that. but a good build mod lets you build where you want and doesn't say: can't place because it's obstructed
There's also a builder helmet mod, it allows to pick up structures back to your inventory and save a lot of resources steamcommunity.com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=756389708&searchtext=
Do the stats change if your not playing on scorched earth. I'm planning a egg hatching building and not sure what the overall best building options are.
what material would you say is the best for a mobile base needed for exploring the desert behind red obelisk ? there is some mountains in the distance but i usually get caught in a storm outthere.
it's hard to get housing effect with a behemoth gate in the build. with my castle build I only got house effect on the side where the rooms are smaller. high ceiling will also give trouble getting house effect
I can't tell: When you made the three layers of walls, was the inner adobe wall built on the top foundation or on the bottom foundation? I would think it would have been the top, like the other two, but it appeared to be slightly lower in height.
they are all on the top foundation, but the adobe is on fence foundation, when you snap a wall on a fence foundation it will be slightly lower than the wall on a normal foundation. that's why I could also place ceilings on top of eachother
Oh, okay...and that means that out of the three wall layers, two are on the fence foundation, but the outer one sits on the outer foundation piece (or, in the case of no outer foundation, it sort of hangs off the edge, if I remember correctly.) I see, thank you.
no, when you place 2 foundations next to each other, you can place a wall on the left foundation,but also on the right foundation, where the foundations touch each other. this works for metal. so if this _ would be a foundation, and this | a wall, you get: _||_ to get a wall on a fence foundation, first place the fence foundations on the foundation and then you can start placing walls if you place on both foundations a fence foundation where they meet each other, you can make 4 layers of walls
But I am planning on just a 1 by 2 with three layers. I know you can do this by placing an outer thatch foundatiin, placing the third wall of metal or stone, then removing the thatch foundation.
Awesome and informative video! All is ask is please stop with the "boing" and facebook notification in the middle of the episode. It's bad enough with google ads, lol.
+Wuerfelweltler I need to finish some things and soon, tomorrow or monday I will do the announcement. I will for sure keep you updated via private message
+Justin Harrison fortitude doesn't matter 8n the way of base readings. The thatch gives 191 insulation, if you would have had fortitude higher then 0 and armor with insulation and then for example have 100 insulation value. Then the 191 would just be added to that insulation value and the total inside would get to 291.
Second time one of my viewrs have referred me to your videos to learn more tips :P
haha handy those viewers :)
LOL
You should do some more ark videos
You should make an obvious point of weakness as a trap. A metal hatch frame with a wooden hatch would lure them in, then the heat kills em dead...
yeah... its a pro trap it will kill raiders soo fast....
Obi Wan Cannabi or make the hatch and hatch frame the same material as the floor, and then the walls and floor inside the box are metal or stone, still kills but it's more convincing
Obi Wan Cannabi Dude, genious idea.

+James Deal I got indeed patreon and link to that is in all my video descriptions ;) Currently also working on new perks for Patreon. News coming soon
I always triple layer my walls. Two metal, one Adobe on the inside. I do the same with doors, ceilings, and foundations. Super walls
yea that works perfect in pvp I can imagine
This is so insanely useful, even though this video was made in the old ark.❤
Its nice that some of these old video's can still help today 😃👍
man, I hit the jackpot, I just chose Adobe cause it looked neat!
Now I can make a good strong prison in PvP thanks!
Great video!! The way the developers made the stats for shelter is hilarious. Thanks!!

Oooh oke, I thought it would totally fry you inside a glass box in a desert
Je hebt echt iets te veel het accent van een nederlander dat kun je echt goed horen
inderdaad
Ik niet XD
Joost Willems ja echt he
Joost Willems hahaha klopt XD
JMontages lol
Great video Man 👍
Thanks, I hope its still relevant today as it was years ago :)

Thank you for this vid. Was wondering myself and was to lazy to test it! XD
:)
Love the mechanic testing videos man, your Ark stuff is great. Ever tried playing it on xbox?
+ChadaMonkey never tried because I don't own an Xbox ;)
Thanks for the video!!!
Very nicely done, Fresonis!
Perhaps change the walls and roof to see whether those structures effect it as well?
Nice! I started to play in the new DLC 3 days ago, I got raided twice... So I will build something like this.

I would say get some of those achatinas / giant snails for a cementing paste factory or use a good killer and go into the desert. There are tons of creatures that will give you chitin
Fresonis you dont know an easy way? like in the island with the beaver or killing Bugs with the frog.
I have a better way to made cementing :)
i lit on fire once when i was dehidrating to death
XD
2nd usefull video, Subbed :! thanks and well done sir
+dobra awesome and welcome!
Now that's what you call hot-boxing.
:P
I'm confused, which one is best for keeping you warm?
Use metal if you want to have it warm..... well it burns you. I don't understand what you mean keeping you warm, because most of the time you want to stay cool. Hypoinsulation is for Cold and Hyperinsulation is for heat. Adobe is the best for SE
Should try this but for snow biomes
good vid man. love the fact u dnt ruin viewing expiereince by putting ur face on the corner. +1 subbed.
hahah maybe in the future sometimes I will use a webcam, but I don't have any now and not the room for it to record myself like that. But maybe more when I do streaming. For these videos it's not needed
2 layers metal and 1 layer adobe is the compromise we had to adopt (metal outside ofc)
Can tents be placed inside bases for the thermal effect?
tents can only be placed on the ground, so if you have a base with a piece of foundation missing inside, then you can place it there
also once you place a tent the ground underneath it acts as a floor so you can place things like mortar and pester in it
in the greenhouse, you should have built sloped roof, that's what gives the greenhouses their heating effect.
Unless something has changed, the sloped roofs are purely aesthetic, the insulation value is calculated by the number of surrounding greenhouse surfaces, not affected by angle or anything else. ark.gamepedia.com/Greenhouse
Love your videos Fresonis keep up the good work.
thnx :)
this helped me out a lot thxs bro
rly cool!!
Love these videos keep it up
Thnx Tyler!
No problem
I didn't know that Dutch people can't pronounce the "th", but it's a useful video.
yea it's hard, well at least for me XD But I know for a lot of other Dutch people it's also difficult to pronounce the "th". That's because we don't have that "th" in our language
This guy was so surprised when he saw the - stats
Oh that's what double layering is. Thanks so much
+Matthew Fuerst ;)
hey buddy, love your vid, but this one takes it all, so funny, "ayoyooo" haha
hahah XD nice that you like it! :)
Can you layer slope triangular roof pieces? I have made an type of piramid raft with stone on the outside and adobe on the inside. Not everything is flush. Have not headed to the hot zone yet. Still trying to combine materials.
Love these videos keep it ip
dat hollands effect do haha nice video xd
Your laughter is so cute and calming
That's nice to read :)
haha een beetje Nederlands 😂😂
bijvoorbeeld : so you can make a house for JEZELF!
loll
Luka Nys ja mwoann
Another great vid
at 7:50 it says "wood" in the top left when it was adobe other than that great vid
yea that was a mistake ^^
very good test congrats...
nice work!
Problem with this test is the "base-heat" you have outside of the houses based on your location...
Please show us how to work the wind turbine the way it should work. i put it on cables with a generator but when the wind turbine turns off my AC and stuff turn off. my generator does nothing
+MATTSCRIBNER24 I have to look into that, haven't been testing things out with that yet
Great tutorial, thank you.
:) You're welcome
Thank you ! this vedio help me alot !
Awesome! :)
Always like your building tips vids, do you know any good mods for building in ark?

nice and handy :)
Do the stats change if your not playing on scorched earth. I'm planning a egg hatching building and not sure what the overall best building options are.
I don't think you have insulation in other maps than S.E.
ohh ok. doesnt matter then lol. thank you
what material would you say is the best for a mobile base needed for exploring the desert behind red obelisk ? there is some mountains in the distance but i usually get caught in a storm outthere.
Whats best for insulating from the cold???
Thx man!
can you tell me please how can build a house with the behemoth gate and the other gate to have house effect .If is possible...thx
it's hard to get housing effect with a behemoth gate in the build. with my castle build I only got house effect on the side where the rooms are smaller. high ceiling will also give trouble getting house effect
Well but in the duration problem, you can put double wall, outside metal, inside adobe, the game will only count the adobe and you won't cook
whats the best build in cold climates ?
Could you build a hatching house just out of metal with no fires/air conditioners to get the right heat?
don't know, maybe it works for wyverns, but you have to demolish it to get them out and just some standing torches would be cheaper
You don't have to demolish it if you use dinosaur gates.
Is would be a little bit expensive but you wouldn't need to fuel it...
I can't tell: When you made the three layers of walls, was the inner adobe wall built on the top foundation or on the bottom foundation? I would think it would have been the top, like the other two, but it appeared to be slightly lower in height.

yea that should work indeed
on wich Servers do you Play sorry but my English isn't the best
Which
+Maximillian Schoch My survival series is on JayEx23 his server. The link is in the description of those videos
ah OK thank you
are you German?
+Maximillian Schoch No I'm Dutch
Awesome and informative video! All is ask is please stop with the "boing" and facebook notification in the middle of the episode. It's bad enough with google ads, lol.
So the social media stuff at the start and on the end is oke?
Yea that would work fine. I just don't like it in the middle of your episodes because it distracts from your dialogue .
Hey buddy love the videos, can you test Rock Golems vs turrets?
so would a tent work for hatching eggs?
I didn't did any testing with egg hatching
I tested it out on a camelsaurus egg, put about 3 torches on and it incubates, cheap aircons
(in the tent)
handy :D thnx for the info
HeavensGates no
Does Tek protect from heat?
really really thank´s
:D
do windows do anything to reduce heat exposure?
in this test it didn't
@fresonis could you make an insulation test on the new map ?
+Mentally Beautiful you mean ragnarok? The desert is not yet finished there. So I can't test
true thanxs for the response keep it in mind tho aye ?
Lool haha dutch?! 😂💥
Ty so much
Been using metal for ages on scorched earth, never seen anything like this
Sir-Red where on scorched do you live, and do you have air conditioning?
Pyro Paragon been all over, put air conditioning in last every time, normally big builds so it takes a while before I do
Sir-Red maybe server settings, armour type, or high fortitude
But can you build a metal base around a tent and be safe?
Gregory John Sure you can
Can you make a metal base without Adobe? Say if I have 20 fortitude and ghille armour will I need adobe
issysito you wouldn't necessarily need adobe if u had desert armor and/or air conditioners u probably could survive
7:50 on Wood?!
Music from the beginning ?^^
check the video description ;)
Fresonis oh my mistake^^ thx
When r u gonna do the announcement?
+Wuerfelweltler I need to finish some things and soon, tomorrow or monday I will do the announcement. I will for sure keep you updated via private message
Fresonis
Ah, ok :)
I just thought it would be useful to announce it at least one week in advance...
+Wuerfelweltler yea totally true mate!
Why does your Argy look so beastly?
This is the old model. They changed the look of the argys
@@Fresonis that’s a shame. They looked so good!
@@abasiczombie. some love it and some hate it ;) they changed more models. Like the trike, the stego, rex, spino etc
And what if i place a tent inside a house? Can i place it?
can't place a tent on foundations
Are u from belgium or netherland
Ideally, then, you would build with stone or adobe on pve.
where are you from , I am from the Netherlands
you got a dutch accent
I'm Dutch indeed ;)
Metal trap would be amazing
What about the tek structures
should put scorched earth more in the front of the title so people don't think this test is for all maps
oke
you were in the first 5 to 10 seconds of the comercial
:O what commercial?
Cool!!!!
any difference hier?
Hey Fresonis! i heard you could use adobe foundations and ceilings to get the full hyper thermal effect the walls dont matter the material!
+SSJBotman ooh it wouldn't suprise me if it works also like that
je bent nederlands. youre are dutch
d8 ik ook
you are are dutch?
Did you know you can quadruple wall,roof,foundation, and door?
yea :)
Ты молодец))))
so if u would starting u would start at thatch house the Adobe house
I started with thatch and after that I make adobe and I didn't use wood in between
Fresonis do u have ark 4 xbox ?
heb een update gemist denk ik kan geen tets bouwen hiero
Ben jij nederlands?
or you could have greenhouse on the inside. it might be flush.
Fresonis are you dutch?
yea I am
Fresonis heard ik because i'm dutch too
:)
Jij bent sowieso Nederlands 😂😂
Omg those pre-update Argents be like 👁👄👁
Hahah old school stuff
@@Fresonis very nice video too and you have a lovely sense of humour. Thank you!
@@MegaAwesomeAnnie thanks! I'm glad you enjoyed the video! 😃👍
You forgot to take the caps lock off your voice. lol
Sometimes I forget to push that button XD
Does Fortitude Matter?
+Justin Harrison fortitude doesn't matter 8n the way of base readings. The thatch gives 191 insulation, if you would have had fortitude higher then 0 and armor with insulation and then for example have 100 insulation value. Then the 191 would just be added to that insulation value and the total inside would get to 291.
7:49 - Adobe, not wood ;)
oooppsss XD Copy paste and only changed the value :P
lol :) It's alright bud. Just lookin out for ya, I know you can be picky about your videos
yea sometimes a bit frustrated to be so picky :P
all good man, I always enjoy your vids. You put so much time and effort in them compared to many Tubers (even myself).
:D Thnx for the compliment and that you see the work that has to be done in the videos :)
