@@captainfatdog Dunno how it was accomplished..I can only guess it was 2 stills, one without the pillar and the other just the pillar as a layer then an after effect?
Haha, it would seem so. But it's worth noting that hinteregions (and partly myself) came up with the system of units and fractions. Behind the scenes they are using unreal engine units. 1 unreal unit is 10mm. So it's really just 26.5 unreal units. There will be a bit more of a breakdown of where these numbers come from in part 3 of this series I think.
@James David FISHER Hey, I missed this comment somehow so sorry I'm so late replying. 1/4 was actually hinteregions original theory, it wasn't until I did 4 of them that I realised it wasn't quite adding up to a full unit. These numbers have been double checked in the dev kit and can confirm they are all accurate.
He really is and this was a masterpiece of teaching, and thank you for making a point of saying so because for both of us that is the most important thing. You might want to have a look at my channel as I too have some things to teach you
you have outdone yourself with this video. easy to learn. visually interesting. i also love the ambient guitar track in the background. thanks for your contribution to the Ark community. much appreciated.
this is top notch editing and instructional material. I feel like the game itself needs to step up to meet the quality of your work lol. Very well done thanks! Looking forward to many more to come
Thank you very much for this, especially that word 'instructional.' We really worked hard for that. LOL yes but what are the chances! Thanks again TD x
¡Bravissimo! Well done codifying these myriad building techniques, and as always, the production quality is superlative. I am very much looking forward to subsequent installments
Wow, I just stumbled upon you today after falling down a rabbit hole through tgt then raasclark. I have to say your presentation on this is stunning, congrats! I'm going to play the building fundamentals playlist before I loop back but I had to let you know how impressive this was, the music, editing and simplistic descriptions were perfect. overall 10/10 bud, thank you.
one of the best ark building tutorials, i've ever seen! and I mean the content, the editing, traceability, easy to follow and very understandable! l'm already curious about part 2!!!!!! ;)
Man I love your videos! Editing is amazing and I really appreciate how much time you put into making great tutorials! Especially the 3rd crap trap with the music and the catapult!😂
This is so useful, especially for making painfully layered bases, thanks a ton. I know what I'm building on my 5x cluster now. Vaults. Layers. Buffer chambers with bred creatures on auto swing. Yeah, it's all coming together
EXCELLENT work dude. The only thing I would add in would be a full foundation up or down. Using the pillar -> roof roof pillar -> foundation down trick.
Ty, I've been waiting years to know your secrets, lol. That helped a lot with the increments and why my builds do not come together sometimes. Keep it coming.
No problem. Hinteregions has had some of this stuff on his channel for a good while but there are a few new tricks in here with the homestead structures.
This is fantastic! Thank you so much for sharing this. I’m still relatively new to building and explaining the height differences achieved by different methods is really useful.
@@captainfatdog im actually trying to build something like The Pilgrimz Project's Quetzal Hangar on my mobile server..I know.. I knoooow.. impossible. no triangles and what not.. but I was hoping for close.. but apparently my metal walls dont go nearly as high as his (mod?) and they cant even agree on the same height limit ahaha some at 10 a few at 11 walls high...it may be a lost cause to build big like that on mobile..
@@captainfatdog No problem at all :). I tried the ceiling raising at my base (the one that's one ceiling out, pillar poking through and then a ceiling on top of that). I was struggling to get to be supported without the structures used to make it in the first place. I'd love to get that elevation without having a cluster of ceilings and pillars. Is there something I'm missing when it comes to supporting that raised ceiling?
Hello Captain Fatdog, I just wanted to let you know, that your videography skills are fantastic. I think you could truly use them outside of Ark (maybe you already do) Also I feel like you could do some different content whether it's with Ark but non building related, and it would be great. Keep up the great work!
Thank you! I have made a couple of other videos besides the ark ones but not many. It's something I am interested in doing more of. I've been considering trying a solo pvp series, I just always have such a big list of building videos that I never really get chance to do anything else.
Love your tips mate, saved me so often. Just one question, apologies for my ignorance. I've searched everywhere for part two with no luck, even your playlist appears to repeat part one twice. Am I missing something? Would love to try and find it if you ever got round to it. Thanks in advance and for everything to date!
Excellent! I'm always learning something new from you and Hint! I came looking for a way to flush a triangle ceiling to a square one in the air (still looking btw) but I always enjoy your vids. THANKS for all you do!

I put a 'difference' blending mode on them to make a masked layer where only the wooden structures are visible and applied a particle effect. This is in after effects btw. What editing software do you use? And what's your channel, do you do ark?

@@captainfatdog No apologies necessary, been having quite a bit going on myself; yea let's re-connect soon! I'm almost done with a new video I think you might like
Luis, 1) I presented the first original work on fractions - raising, lowering, turning, flush ceilings etc - beginning November 2016, and he and I became firm friends, and he and I are responsible for all of this fundamental technology pretty much without exception, and a very great deal else besides. You can can easily prove it to yourself, just go and look at the dates on our works; 2) To say Captain Fatdog 'has no content' is an absurd statement. To say he 'has no rivals' is closer to the truth; 3) You appear foolish in my eyes.
@@Luis-ou9fn This was discovered 4 years ago even though I'm using some homestead structures that got released a little over a year ago? How does that work?
Thank you! Initially I worked off hinteregions system of units and fractions, some were accurate, others were very close. After a series of rather lengthy tests and experiments, I came up with an improved, perfected system of units and fractions based on a scheme of 30ths. Later on, I installed the devkit and checked my numbers. I found that 1 of our units is 15 unreal engine units and that 1 unreal unit is 1cm. So 1 unit (not unreal unit) is 150mm and ¹⁄₃₀ is 5mm.
@@captainfatdog Lengthy my arse! As I recall it, CF said, 'Wait here, back in a moment,' and came back in a few hours with the mindblowing revelation that was and is 30ths. I was on a quest and I had gone down the wrong path, you see. He looked at it all with fresh eyes and saw ... you will see!
Part of this video's purpose is to prepare you, as best we can, for what comes next. The next one will focus on application, the main practical uses of this thinking. The third one is something a bit special, and I think you will like it. You do know, if you ever want building help you can just join our Discords? In our About sections
What a high production vid hope it got more subs man to thank you, one question maybe I'm late to the party but I can't find a way to make the pillars poke out of the ceiling anymore. I was wondering if this method is still valid, I'm trying to follow the tutorial to raise my foundation. I'm' using SS small pillar to achieve that. I'm doing something wrong? or I need to press a certain key for it to snap and poke out.
You and hinteregions are literally an ark building mechanics dream team! I already knew this would be a quality video before I clicked. 👌 Maybe you could do a cleaned up video on Hinteregions's underfloor for his builds xD
I wonder what he's talking about. CF, do you know what he's talking about? Oh, right, no, of course, you just asked me what he's talking about. Martin, what do you mean?
@@hinteregions Captain Fatdog's format is very nice, I wish we had a video on your underfloor that you use for builds such as the achatina/titanboa farm except with CF's video format style. I love your brilliant mind but your build videos can get a bit messy sometimes, that's all 😂 after splitting and then turning and then raising foundations to get the underfloor laid with structures everywhere, my head hurts
Thanks Martin, that's kind of you :) I know you didn't mean any harm but it's a bit rude to say you prefer one persons video format to another. It would have been nicer to give constructive criticism directly to hinter on how you think he can improve his videos, rather than asking me to make the videos for him.
It's all right Martin, I understand and I thank you for what really is a genuinely kind comment. You probably saw the veritable essay I wrote, and then took down because it was a bit of an eyeful. But, yeah, I mean, I am right here. I am the originator of all these ideas and I have made about 150 videos about them, and maybe I could be included rather than just criticised right here. And, as I said in that ridiculously long response - he and I have quite different philosophies about the way we present. The thing you mention, the underfloors, that was a complex build and I decided to show you the full deal and I don't do that anymore precisely because usually all I get is complaints. If you want the real deal you do have to be prepared to work and think just a tiny bit. You think that thing gave YOU a headache, it damn near killed me. Underfloors: you can't do it that way as the devs nerfed foundation stacking, and, we have now far better ways that I hope to show you at some point. I will revisit the intersecting walls just for you because they can do a lot more than just snakes and snails, and I am going to present Radial Taming Pen 2 just as soon as our other brilliant Arker and friend E is free from his work commitments as that second work was, like all this, a collaboration. It traps every animal that walks on land from compy up to titanosaur yip yip!
How do you raise foundations when a triangle foundation is involved? I have a cliff platform build where I am trying to raise a square foundation attached to a triangle foundation near the center.
You would just raise the square one and stick the new triangle to it. But I am guessing your square one won't go any higher because of the terrain, yes? Need more detail. Join our Discords and show us screenshots
Great videos. I have a quick question. Sometimes when raising and lowering foundations to make a larger structure I can do longer place ceiling tiles above those foundations. Do you know how to fix this?
Your editing skills combined with your ark knowledge is unparalleled

Thank you Bruce!
the fact that you can raise something by 1 and 23/30 units is the most ark thing ever
Haha, it would seem so. But it's worth noting that hinteregions (and partly myself) came up with the system of units and fractions. Behind the scenes they are using unreal engine units. 1 unreal unit is 10mm. So it's really just 26.5 unreal units.

Underfloors: you can't do it that way as the devs nerfed foundation stacking, and, we have now far better ways that I hope to show you at some point. I will revisit the intersecting walls just for you because they can do a lot more than just snakes and snails, and I am going to present Radial Taming Pen 2 just as soon as our other brilliant Arker and friend E is free from his work commitments as that second work was, like all this, a collaboration. It traps every animal that walks on land from compy up to titanosaur yip yip!
How do you raise foundations when a triangle foundation is involved? I have a cliff platform build where I am trying to raise a square foundation attached to a triangle foundation near the center.
You would just raise the square one and stick the new triangle to it. But I am guessing your square one won't go any higher because of the terrain, yes? Need more detail. Join our Discords and show us screenshots
WOW
thank you pro
Cool 👍👍👍
Great videos. I have a quick question. Sometimes when raising and lowering foundations to make a larger structure I can do longer place ceiling tiles above those foundations. Do you know how to fix this?
Yes, that's a great question, I'm planning on making a little video about that
just WOW !
Is there a key for lowering pillars? Mine function based on where I’m looking meaning they flip back and fourth between what I want and don’t want?
