5 Ways to Fill Roof Gaps | The Forest
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 11 сен 2024
- In this video of The Forest, I show you 5 ways to fill roof gaps. Depending on the look you want for your roof and depending on how much you want to spend can matter a lot. Custom roofs don't fill the gaps at the end, unless you build more than 4 corners.
I make videos, guides, tutorials, and let's plays primarily for The Forest. My focus is giving the information you need as quick as possible so you can get back to playing. Make sure you like and subscribe, cheers.

I just started playing The Forest and while it's a great game and lots of fun, the building is really frustrating. The lack of necessary features makes building a huge pain in the ass. Building a roof is a perfect example. Like, why the f**k does it leave a gap that I then have to dick around trying to line things up, only to have it look mediocre? Trying to build stairs, with no snapping but have it line up perfectly, at the desired height and angle, is also far too tedious, unless there's some trick? I've tried to build a platform out from a cliff and then stairs leading down but it's almost impossible to line it up and have it look good... I seriously hope the sequel fixes these issues and makes building not so painstakingly annoying.
welcome to the forest! LOL
Save before hand job, words to live by 😂
Yeah LOL, should of read as "beforehand" I think Farket is been Farket again :)
I was hoping I wasn't the only one that caught that lol.
We love you Farket!
This is the comment I came here for.
Why cant they make an update for a "roof filler" that automatically fill this part that i actually looks great.
BlueCrax because they don’t care about the game anymore AHEM the FPS sons of the forest
@@DOPE_SMOKE it's not going to be a FPS.
@@thewickedone2676 well technically speaking it is but I dont consider it one because an fps game is first person shooter and it will be a game with shooting and it's a first person game but like I said I personly wont and dont consider it one but I see both points of view
@@DOPE_SMOKE well technically The Forest is a FPS since it has a gun and is first person?
@@lorcanzo2498 ever heard of the term "survival game"?
I'm surprised that the game doesn't do this automatically.
I dont understand how you manage to get a custom roof to go upwards like this, it can only go horizontally for me
Now how to fill the gigantic hole is the top center of the roof
I spammed leaf traps and it looked alright until i went inside and realised it is invisible from bottom side
well if endnight wasn't bitching that much we would have customisable custom wall hights, you could place a single log all over the roof.
I gave up on filling that at this point, in v0.7something I tried it with deer skin which worked a bit, though.
Use a custom floor
If you place loads of weapon display logs in a line it fills it up perfectly that's how I did it looks like its actually supposed to be like that
You could just put a rock wall on the top of it
ive always just made two roofs going opposite directions. yeah its spendy but It looks the best imo, and absolutly no gaps
how do u get it to Cross it keeps linking to the other roof
I just use a custom floor instead.
I also like this video. keep it up :)
12:35 You're right, that DOES look really nice.
Already seen these from the livestream but I’ll click on to like and comment anyway, gotta show love and support to ma boy ❣
I absolutely love your content your vids have helped me build some amazing things I'm so grateful you've decided to share your knowledge on the game and the wiki looks amazing and so much info and it's all helpful ❤️❤️❤️❤️
The last method that you did looks really clean and nice
this is very convenient, i was having doubts about how i should fill up the roof gap and then you uploaded a video showing how to do it
All we do is do a roof one way, then do a custom roof the opposite way. You can get them to sit at the same height and you get a really cool lattice effect roof. Plus a small hole directly in the middle like a chimney. However depending on your house size will depend on the cost of that. It can be quite expensive. I prefer it though as it looks so much cleaner.
what do you mean by roof one way and a custom roof the opposite way?
@@mateoftw5425 apologies,I should have been clearer. I do a custom roof starting on one side, i.e the shortest side if doing a rectangle shaped house, then once that is placed how I want it I then do another custom roof blueprint on the longest side of the house. Then I set that at the same height as the other one and once you have made it the logs are going opposite ways from each other so creates a cool lattice effect.
@@hppottiness thank you so much, ive been pulling my hair out trying to figure out how to fill the roof gap. ill try this out next time i play, thanks!
@@mateoftw5425 you're welcome! hope it helps. :)
Why the devs can't just put a triangle shape wall? Like, you know, every other survival game.
I'm suprised you didn't do the double roof. You auto place a roof then custom place one so the logs go the other way and you just have to even up the heights. It's by far the easiest and the best looking in my opinion
I really like the first method, it looks the best, and it doesn't matter it's not cheapest, there are plenty of trees and there are growing new ones.
Well here's a crazy idea... I know it's going to be shocking, but how about the developer actually add the function to quickly fill in the gap of a roof? I know crazy talk right.
I'm on PS4 and I practically lost my mind trying to fill that Gap in! its like they did it on purpose, if the cannibals don't kill you the freaking building will.............
I know right, they actually did have the gap filled, but the lead decided he didn’t like it
Farket I have watched most of your videos on the forest m8 your are the ultimate source for knowledge on this game thank you for your time and energy please could you make a video disclosing the best places to build if you want to be attacked alot I am planning to build a collisium for me and my friends to stage some gladiatorial cannible combat sessions feel free to use this idea as well it would be interesting to see your take on it :)
around the landbridge (next to the sinkhole), next to any of the villages or on that spot next to the fertile lands - in the shallow water which farket always calls "one of the most patrolled areas in the game"
btw to attract enemies, just get the artifact; you can summon and shoo them at any time if shit goes down
Use the artifact ball
I got a great tip. Just use the custon floor on the roof you can do the arch before hand and then put the cust floor on the roof
For the first one it only lets me build horizontal! Please help. I’m on PS4.
I have the same problem
just put a rock wall in the gap.. might stick out a bit but looks better than 90% of these. and it's not expensive
the last one is epic tho
did that up until now, I don't really like it, rocks on top of logs kinda just isn't my look (not really realistic either)... also, there are always some sticking through and some holes still left
okay the ones with all the different 2-wide-roofs look extremely wonky and just not really good; the one with just the roof looks quite good but is fucking expensive; I think I'll now switch to the last method, not expensive and looks very nice and also realistic imo.
Adding a rock wall to the foundation gives the rock wall in the gap more symmetry too.
I just wanna point out that I love this tutorial because I was so confused on how to fill the gaps and I'm so happy I found this
Im trying to replicate the last one but i cant. nothing works like it did in your video. i dont even know what im doing wrong
I kind of fancy you as the edgier Bob Ross of RUclips Forest videos. Nice job.
FINALLY! Thank you Farket
Last one is lit daddy. You can use the lil triangular hole as a triangular window or even not make the walls underneath and have an open house like you did last season
Love watching your videos! I learn something here, and then we try it out in the game with my brother :)
2:23
Best part of the video
You forgot the most basic way, auto-build on roof, manually-build another roof in the other orientation. Looks good on houses that is symmetrical but is really expensive.
I like your new way, think I will try it out sometime.
Thank You for all your videos very helpful
The first one doesn't work. Ive been trying it just won't work
Evelyn Quinones me too
You can also place 2 points on 2 corners on one side of a building and then go to the opposite side of the building and place a 3rd point right in the middle. Do this on all four sides and it makes a pretty clean roof with a cool looking design on the inside for you to see. Worth trying out farket if what I said makes any sense lol. It's super simple once you see what I mean
ruclips.net/video/YkJX22S9CHM/видео.html
I think that dude did what you meant, right?
thank you, i have been struggling with this.
Great video, really helped me!
When trying the first method my custom roof filler piece only fills horizontally like a flat roof/second floor instead of filling vertically to fill the gap
I got the same problem
Oh I’ve figured it out if you’re still having trouble lol
@@TakeHisDosh im having that issue, what is the solution?
@@amaansharif5911 yo bro I’ve forgotten now sorry man but I do remember I just kept playing around with it til I got it
that first option makes no sense i cannot get it too go up it just wants to fill across still
Yeah idk if it's different on console or what, but i can't get it to work right either, but I'm on ps5 so maybe that's why 🤷🏻
Kinda late but thanks for making these videos, Keep making them! There are alot of us who are just starting out still and awaiting the sequel.
First method doesn't work anymore. It only builds horizontally, won't go vertically.
Tried some of the other guys ideas and they didnt work on the ps4. Tried your way of doing the first one and it worked the first time. Always reliable tips from you my friend, keep it up. Cant wait to see what you do with forest 2.
Cheers
@@Dr.Ticklebum69 try makimg sure that when you place the starting and ending points, they are placed on the beams on each side. If you place them on the beam in front of you, under the gap, then you'll get the horizontal issue.
@@Dr.Ticklebum69 np. Thx for the idea of going right to left instead. Looks better.
The 'btcobra' method is the cleanest looking one, however only with a few small adjustments that I made from his original method. The finished product will be a perfectly clean and natural looking gable wall without a double-thick overhang look to it, however my method is a bit more expensive in lumber. If it doesn't work for you, then you're doing something different from what I'm trying to convey here, as I can successfully do this build every time I try it. I hope I can explain my process sufficiently.
If you're outside the structure facing one of the empty gable ends of the roof, *start your first snap point on the left side from that perspective*. It helps to build scaffolding of some sort along the outside of your structure's gable walls (I use cheats for scaffolding only for this specific build, because it's crazy to me that the devs were fine with giant triangular holes in buildings where a gable wall should be). After selecting custom roof and pressing C, set the first snap point only when the two little green ghost discs are both the same depth (don't have one of them be a full sized 'puck' and the other be flat).
Then make the second snap on the very center of your wall. It helps if the length of your wall has a break directly in the center, if your wall has two or four segments. You can get this very precise by aligning the little white sphere directly to that segment break, don't go by the amount of blueprint discs.
Then for your final snap point, take it over to the other end of the wall and you'll notice that as you move it around slightly, at one snap point there will be flat circles along the length of the 'ghost blueprint', and at some points some of those circles will disappear or flip 90 degrees. Bring this final snap point *just a hair to the left* (towards inside of building) of those 'flat circle' snap points, along the wall that is perpendicular to your gable wall.
After all snap points are set, draw up the blueprint to see a flat gable wall that will be almost completely flush to the outside of the building. On the inside, you'll see the other half of the gable wall overhanging into the structure. So, on the inside of your structure, make a secondary rectangular wall under that doubled-up gable wall. And there you have it.
As an additional note, if you've drawn out custom walls (press C) instead of using the auto-blueprint method, the first wall that you draw out will not be a gable wall, it'll be one of the walls that the 'rafter logs' of the roof are attached to.
Mine doesn't "go up" like in the beginning of the video. It just goes horiztonallt,.
Nice vid, but actually forgot brt cobras rockwall method. I like the looks of it best.
5 looks really good
for the roof, if u place all 3 placements from outside the roof goes 2 the inside ;)
Would a bird house fit over the door to cover that hole?
Why would making a roof be so stupidly difficult? Is the gaps considered a successful shelter?
Is this possible on ps4? Cant find the option to raise roof angle
I love the way the last creation comes out! I will try it. But I'd like to place it on a A-Frame house. Like a 'Finnhütte', if you know, what I mean. Do you think, that it is possible?
As always perfect explained. Thanks.
So I was messing around and sometimes I get automatic roof covers which are diagonal log fillers across the gap but only on one side lol. Depending on the size of my roof, I've had like only three diagonal logs which still leave gaps and I'vr had ones that completely fill the gap. But again, never on both sides.
So do any of these roof's work as roof's? I am always cold and wet in my house
Always a great job keep it up
Looking forward to next live steam
I can’t figure out how to place a custom roof
I miss this game. Haven't played it in a while
I just built the wall, built the roof, then added a custom wall on top of the wall, automatic mode. It looks great from the inside. It pokes out of the roof on the outside a bit, but I think it looks better than other options. I know that would bother some people. (PS4)
so good!
Why is the background of the thumbnail stranded deep! Wow sneak 100
Question: Is living by the spawn and three cannibal camps good? (On hard mode) it was my first game and I think I messsed up, but I already built a giant compound around the plane.
I am unable to "Place Roof as Normal" I cant get the Ghost Roof to un stick from the Floor, as I try to bring up Apex. It stays attached to Floor. Your Tutorial zips past that section ???
Press C to take it out of auto mode?
Is the first option a pc only thing because no matter what angle I went at it wouldn't work. I'm on ps4 btw
FIRST (hell yeah boi)
I really liked this video Farket. Those houses look amazing.
Cheers Cigarette
@@Farket *Cigarette*
In my opinion the first one looks the best
Why is my fire damage so high? I got hit one time with a fire stick and 4 of my mutant armor got destroyed, i also get oneshot if i have no armor, all my friends im playing with get only 1 armor destroyed
i cant get it to work as soon as i make windows and doors connected to the custom walls, it always fucks up then:(
Love you, son.
Thx.
That first tip does not look the best, but it's better than having these ugly gaps in the roof. Thanks my dude. Just wish the devs would add in a feature that auto fills in the space
all these work with small houses. How do we do this with big houses?
This game is so cool, but it makes me sad to play it because of all the stuff they just didn’t take the time to put into it. It feels like someone lost their passion halfway through. I hope Sons is better polished and maintained... Currently cold and wet with a roof over my head.
Tbh I just add a custom wall going all the way around then delete the walls on the sides with roof it always fills is the holes is cheap, has no limitations. Works good for me
This should be somthing the devs fix to be honest. I know they have alot on but that gap in the roof is terrible. What's the point in the roof at all if it's exposed?
Apparently they did fixed it but it was never released to the public, looked too organic apparently
Love ur vids tho 😂
Not adding a simple way to fill in the gable ends of a roof is the worst thing the devs could have left out. It should cost no more and be no harder to build than a wall of the same size. I've built some pretty elaborate buildings and trying to fill in the ends of the roof is more frustrating than working all the way to the bottom of the sink hole for the first time to find out the weapon there is no better than the Katana which I usually get in the first 10 minutes of the game.
THX for the Video... you did forget the Long Gap in the middle of the Roof were it Rains in... How to fill that one?
I dunno. Never thought of that one
Use weapon holders
Does the custom roof still snap to the custom foundation? I seem to not be able to do it, also same for custom ceiling? Thanks in advance
FUCK YOU
I thought you were going to fill the unsightly gap at the peak of the roof. Why this even exists in the game is beyond me.
There is only one way to fill that, with the no limits mod.
I just made a bunch of custom roofs stacked to made it look filled from the top middle and the sides lol
At 1:03, That actually looks really bad! lol
Save before what job
"Save before hand job." -Farket
I love you
0 dislikes? Damn straight
There should be a future we can fix this kind of bug because I’m really getting annoyed
I Love you farket (No Homo)
I have a question. Does poison and fire effects stack?
Yeah, but not on arrows
@@Farket oh ok
@@dedededed_ you can craft poison and fire arrows and switch between them though, so you get both effects on them
@@oyblech8671 ok
I hate games that let you spend hours of time doing something before you find out the mechanics dont let you do what it implies you can do and that is this game
Like most survival craft games.
@@alvin4422 then don't play it. Duh.
@Alvin Agreed its annoying. I just started playing last night, but really looking forward to SoTF.
Now we need a sons of the forest version
The first method wont work for me. It doesnt extend upwards. Wtf!
For me it just does them all the same height and looks weird
Mine won't go up either only horizontal
Ideas for console
I always save before hand jobs 😅
I can’t place the custom roof on the floor, so I can’t do some of these :(
Damn nuts dragged me away on my first day FFS. Now I have a small shelter that wont take a roof its raining and im starving. LMFAO
Yeehaw
But like why does cost matter when log hack cheat exists? LOL
just say ur gay
I used the rock wall
I always save before hand jobs. Kids, Never forget to save before hand jobs. Practice safe hand jobs by saving. Don’t want to mess up and ruin anything.
It should not be this hard...
Great video how work around a terribad flaw in the game. Fuckin amateur home project bad. They should come out with a simple patch long ago, but I guess they won’t because they already moved on to making the sequel.
The whole time I'm watching this video I have a face like I just smelt the worst fart. Why the hell dont they make a roof tool that works
I just stuck a wall in the gap and called it a day.
“Save before hand job”
save before ....
