Great Job! A few Addendums: 1. Cattails do not have to be planted in water. 2. Torches can also be lit by another torch or with a firestarter. 3. Torches and Pit Kilns can be extinguished by rain, you should put some kind of block somewhere above them to block rain
One thing you forgot is the step between the Hand basket and Backpack, the Linen sack. It's easier in the beginning to get a big Flax field then everything to make enough leather for backpacks. Also you need a lot of Linen for the sails, so the more flax the better.
i was thinking of getting the game since some time and finally bought it a few days ago. i felt kinda lost and overwhelmed and especially didn't understand the prospecting part at all.... but thanks to your video i finally know how it works. and of course so many other great tips! thank you for making such a great video! ^_^
Yup, and if your crucible cools peat gets hot enough to make copper pourable again once it's already in there. But babysitting the firepit is boring lol
I started playing Vintage Story about a week ago. I've watch other guides, which were very helpful. However, your guide by far is the best and taught me things about the game I didn't know. I didn't know about pack/rammed dirt or using the F key to make clay sculpting quicker. Plus all of your knowledge on late game mechanics will be helpful in my playthrough. Thank you.
Hell yeah, I started playing for the first time the other day, on a server with like 8 friends, and missed a chunk of early game progress due to going to bed early, so this is helping me figure out what I missed, although we have not bothered to go for Bronze yet, as we are taking things pretty slow.
The prospecting pick section was ESPECIALLY helpful, my partner and I are down to our last two copper picks and we've been going mad trying to find copper!
Also, craft some dry grass into hay blocks and make a hay bed to get through the first night faster. It only skips 7 hours, but it's enough so you don't have to sit in the dark waiting for sun to rise.
Fun lil factoid- 1 charcoal is enough in a forge to heat ingots to about 900C, which is more than enough to work most metals. 2 Charcoal gets it to a pretty significantly higher temperature than even that, so I'd be surprised if you need more than that to work any metal.
Not only was this super informative and well put together, it also made me want to play vintage story! I've been playing TFC for a while now and I keep hearing about this mod too!
A note on prospecting: the ore density is in "per mil" (‰), not "per cent" (%). Functionaly you are right about the numbers being less important than the adjective attached to it.
Would love to see more from you! I subbed and checked the channel to see what else there was and was stunned to see only this so far considering how well it was put together. The sub count didn't even register to me until afterwards, fingers crossed for a great beginning!
Thank you so much! I'm flattered!! I've got things in the works, but I'm more quality than quantity minded haha; I'll be dropping more videos in due time.
Nice! One suggestion is to use "squat" instead of "shift". I know that's a carry-over from a lot of Minecraft players. Some of us are old enough to remember when the Control key was for squatting. So, we rebind our layout for that, with Shift used to run.
You don’t need to use fertilizer to restore the nutrient levels. You can restore the nutrient levels by planting something else that doesn’t consume the missing nutrients or by leaving it with a plant that doesn’t consume the missing nutrients. The nutrients will automatically replenish themselves.
Crop rotation was also used in RL before fertilization. It takes a lot of time, almost 4 years. You would take the first year one plant, second another, third again another and the forth year nothing, then start over. I don't know if it takes the same amount in VS, but here fertilization would be better, because it also lets plants grow faster.
@@Jan12700 Yes, but you can just build three or six rows of fields. Every every time you harvest, you just plant the crops in the next row. I use six rows that are two block wide and 10 to 15 block long with water in between. This way, I get more food than I ever need without having to worry about fertilizer.
what i noticed is when you searched for ore that you made holes horizontaly which isnt that good of a way since ore spawns in a pancake shape, meaning is flatter and easier to find if you make holes straight down every 5 to 8 blocks when you are in the right area. also animals dont just stand near you when you build up they now sprint away which makes hunting harder. you need only 2 charcoal to heat up copper in a forge it will stay hot long enough so that you can smith all 4 ingots whithout wasting charcoal
oh god, this reminds me of my 200 hour survival world and just only by the 120 hour mark i got iron, steel, i cannot tell you how hard i was trying to search for the materials(had to teleport into a bauxite desert 20000 blocks south, made steel in the 170-180 hour mark), i literally defeated the current 1.18 boss before i got iron
@@AwaPinku Also, although wood and firewood won't get (most) metals to temperature to be melted, they can be used to raise up temperature before you switch to a different fuel, possibly saving you on coal or charcoal. Ingots can be worked at a lower temperature than one might expect. Around 850 celcius you can already hammer an ingot enough for all your purposes. Two units of charcoal is probably enough (maybe even more than enough) to get four ingots to temperature and allow you to work all of them if you can pull one out as soon as it is workable temperature and you're relatively fast with it. A saw is an extremely good early tool, but something that is also a very good early tool is a shear, which allows you to collect large amount of sticks and many seeds so you can grow more wood. Nails and strips can be made with pretty much any material, so the best material to make them out of is copper, since it is so abundant. Ladders have an alternate recipe that replaces most of the sticks with planks, saving your sticks for other crafts. An early cellar can be made by enclosing a storage vessel in a two-block space, one block for the vessel, and one block of air either besides or above the vessel. To access the vessel you will need to break blocks, which you will need to replace every time, so it is quite... Annoying. But, it will keep your mushrooms fresh. Leaving fields to fallow will cause it to grow grass and horsetail. Horsetail, beyond being used for healing, is also a flower that can be used for beekeeping. The Helve Hammer is a funky little tool. When making plates, it will teleport voxels to its rightful place with each hit. When dealing with iron blooms and blister steel, however, whenever it needs to fill a voxel spot it will CREATE a voxel out of nothing! If you somehow mess up a bloom or a blister and it does not have enough voxels to finish the job, just put it under the helve hammer and it will fix your mistake for you. You usually don't need a lot of wood in the oven to bake a single pie or less than five bread. Three is certainly enough. You may want to fully load it for multiple operations, furthermore, you can put more wood in it and light it up.
Oh, also, consider using fruit presses. You can drink the juice with a bowl and for cranberries and cherries, instead of losing some saturation in the process of becoming juice, it GAINS saturation. You get to have some dry pruit pulp that you can feed animals or just let rot.
So on default settings, you're fine, using a gear to set your spawn is permanent. But depending on your world's settings (and a lot of servers do this), temporal gears give you a certain number of "lives" that are spent each time you respawn, and if you run out then you'll end up back at world spawn. The game will helpfully tell you in your chat how many respawns are remaining, at least.
Not by default, but it doesn't use too many keys so you could map it yourself. Here's a couple sources to help you if you want to do that. wiki.vintagestory.at/Controller_Compatibility www.vintagestory.at/forums/topic/10732-controller-support-in-vintage-story-using-steam-desktop-thing-for-plug-in-controllers/

Great Job!
A few Addendums:
1. Cattails do not have to be planted in water.
2. Torches can also be lit by another torch or with a firestarter.
3. Torches and Pit Kilns can be extinguished by rain, you should put some kind of block somewhere above them to block rain
You have done an amazing job, I hope the algorithm shows this to all the new players
i found it
We can only hope. 🙏🏼
It found its way to me at the very least
One thing you forgot is the step between the Hand basket and Backpack, the Linen sack. It's easier in the beginning to get a big Flax field then everything to make enough leather for backpacks. Also you need a lot of Linen for the sails, so the more flax the better.
i was thinking of getting the game since some time and finally bought it a few days ago. i felt kinda lost and overwhelmed and especially didn't understand the prospecting part at all.... but thanks to your video i finally know how it works. and of course so many other great tips! thank you for making such a great video! ^_^
This is exactly the sort of thing I was hoping to hear, I'm happy to know it helped!
I hope you enjoy the game a lot! My friend just got it so we got an official server to play on together and it’s been a blast :)) !
14:30 just a quick tip, preheating your crucibles with peat can save you on some charcoal, not a whole ton but it adds up after a while.
Yup, and if your crucible cools peat gets hot enough to make copper pourable again once it's already in there. But babysitting the firepit is boring lol
thank you for making one guide, its so hard finding guides that are up to date.
I am going to fall asleep watching this for the next two weeks. It’s how I drill new things into my head
Thanks for the perfect teaching tool for this

Thank you for making this. If (when) I dig into Vintage Story, this will be unbelievably helpful
I watched all of M.o.M videos when i started playing . And i still learned a few things here ( combining chests )(steel making) . Well done video .
I tends to mark any Surface Ore that i run into as its a good indication that there is that mineral below. gives a good idea of where to prospect.
Very good and in depth tutorial, after 60 hours i did not know you can craft fireclay... amazing ;)
6:38 You can just hold right click on the fire with the torch in your hand and you I think you can light a torch with a lit torch.
The prospecting pick section was ESPECIALLY helpful, my partner and I are down to our last two copper picks and we've been going mad trying to find copper!
Just a straight up goated vintage story tutorial.
This is such a good video! Recommended watching for anyone new to the game or unsure of how something works.
Let this comment please the algorithm gods to aid this new vintage story creator
I hope this game can gain more recognition.
Also, craft some dry grass into hay blocks and make a hay bed to get through the first night faster. It only skips 7 hours, but it's enough so you don't have to sit in the dark waiting for sun to rise.
ive been finding vintage story hard to start but this video is just what i needed to see ! thanks for the informative vid man
This guide is a god send! Thanks so much
Great job covering a LOT of info quickly and concisely. 🎉
Thank you for all the changes! I haven’t had a time to look thru them all, but man has Tyron added some QoL changes that I wasn’t expecting!

33:15 You can also use glacier ice.
Very well done! I’m not gonna lie though. The temporal stability had me screaming internally during the whole video!
You're the first one to mention it. I did it on purpose.

We're all still living in LeBron's Age 37:34
Food gives satiation, not saturation; ladders can be spaced apart (check out rope ladders, they’re easy to deploy and pickup)
oops

This is really well done. Good job.
Great video omg, perfectly concise - was feeling overwhelmed when I picked up VS but this is making me feel like I can actually play the game
Congrats on 100! Also, Love the video!
Nice video, when you go mining you can use half of the ladder if you place them 1 every 2 blocks and you still are gonna be able to get back up
Guess I'm buying this game now. Thanks!
THANK YOU BRO
Incredible work!
you are underratedd keep making videos please
This was a great video man.
Fantastic vid, keep up the good work
Bro how do you only have like 40 subs your production value is at 40k sub level
This is a massive help!
Ive watched so many video abput this game and no one ever made a pie, wtf, is the best food out there
Praise Dave. Awesome Video
Awesome stuff, thanks
Helped me out a lot, might even make my friends less nervous to try it :D
this is so useful! thanks so much!!
Nice!

Fair enough call, will keep in mind to say "crouch" etc in the future. Worst case the game actually shows the controls on screen by default.
You can keep putting the rammed earth threw the crafting menu to change the texture 4 other styles i think
Damn I think I just got convinced to buy this game. Great vid
I hope u make a series of vintage story

Leaving farmland fallow (nothing planted) allows it to regenerate nutrients the fastest, if I'm not mistaken.
This is some real efforts, thank you🎉

17:40 one thing, its actually permille, not percent, so 1/1000 instead of 1/100
Thats one thing i always scream at, no tutorial video i saw had that right.
Having somewhat like 42% copper would be crazy xD
50 hours and I had no idea about rammed earth.
loved this video!
instructions unclear i made it to iron age and now have 16 iron spears
oh god, this reminds me of my 200 hour survival world and just only by the 120 hour mark i got iron, steel, i cannot tell you how hard i was trying to search for the materials(had to teleport into a bauxite desert 20000 blocks south, made steel in the 170-180 hour mark), i literally defeated the current 1.18 boss before i got iron
This was a much needed video for Vintage Story. I struggle to find any recent video's to help with stuff i am not clued up on! Sub + Like + Comment :)
Praise Dave !
Flashbanged by the pfp and then the voice
Thank you(?)
Cartails don't need to be planted in water, they can also be planted on dry soil, sand or gravel.
@@krasudreal3948 Oh neat, I actually didn't know that one.

WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU CAN MAKE FIRE CLAY
And here's steel, it's the best gear in the game... Oh yeah you can cook too I guess
I'm running around with meteor gear and still tossing redmeat in a fire on my current game. There's a reason it was an afterthought lmao
Algorithm comment bc this is actually really really well made
I saw so.where that the temporal gear thing was temporary, is that true?
So on default settings, you're fine, using a gear to set your spawn is permanent.

yay
Something he forgot to mention is that 9 + 10 is indeed 21.
Do you have to craft the fire clay now? can you still find it?
It only generates beneath coal veins now, but not beneath brown coal, and not a lot of it. You'll definitely have to craft a good bit of it.
@AwaPinku good to know. I would have spent ages looking
is there controller support?
Not by default, but it doesn't use too many keys so you could map it yourself.
