In this Vaheim build guide, I'll show you a way to build and decorate an underwater structure, without needing to use any mods!
I've been working on this technique for quite some time and was super excited to share it with everyone when I built a tiny house on Gaming with Kristi's Happy Gamers Valheim server. It was a great experience, and my build was voted the most unique design! I am very grateful to the community over there.
Here's a link to Gaming with Kristi's channel!

Valheim is an early access, indie survival game that draws some inspiration from Viking culture. It's an open-world survival and crafting game with both single-player and co-op PvE (player vs environment) mechanics.
This is exactly how my grandfather used to build underwater sheds.
The physics in this game are truly amazing.
How does one even come up with this method. Incredible.
Totally by accident lol, I was tired of my boat moving around in my boat house so I locked it down with a beam - and that's how I noticed that it was able to go underwater.
@@MatsGamingChannel if you lock the boat down does it still take damage from server desyncs?
never mind the usefulness of it all, I just find the fact that you can take an elevator to the bottom already worth the video :D
Nice! Thank you for watching!
Seems like Kristie and jiroc communities rally for support. You're a top notch valheim engineer. Well deserved credit.
Thank you!! I’m very appreciative to be able to share space with so many supportive people in some really cool communities.
Here I was thinking you would just show us how to /devcommand + fly to build underwater but then you BLEW MY MIND
Haha thanks for watching! Glad to have been a surprise!
Theres been a lot of unique building methods ive seen since the game released, but this one is THE most unique and clever system I've ever seen.
I never had an interest in building underwater and I never will, but God damn do I respect how you managed to figure this out. Well done.
Wow thank you! Thank you for watching!
The entire thing is such a wild concept
My great grandfather used to be an attendant on those old Karve elevators. He would shine your shield for a couple of ore. He often says the times have never improved from that point on.
wow dude thats insane lol i remember seeing this house in that competition.. amazing but what a.. head *** to achieve it.. cheers for the vid. 👍
Thank you! Thank you for watching!
i have never seen anyone do this! this is so cool! i bet it could help me with my bridge :3
Thank you for watching! I hope it does help you with your bridge!
Awesome vid Mat! This is so cool. Probably one of the closest things to glitch building that I've seen in Valheim.
Thanks Kristi! It totally feels like glitch building! Lots of fun to do, but also super finicky.
So cool! Double thumbs up for no mods and doing this in vanilla!
Thank you! Thank you for watching!
This is an AWESOME video! I really wanted to know how you created that fantastic little house. Brilliant trick with the Karve. Thank you for sharing!
Thanks Josh! I've been so excited to make this video! Thank you for watching!
Saw your underwater house in one of Kristie's videos and instantly had to check if you had made a video detailing the strategy. Thank you!!!
Thank you for stopping by! :D
This is brilliant! and something i needed when building my bridge ... future bridge bases might just be easier. The roof trick and the cart trick were a pain 🤣
Thanks! and Thank you for watching! :D
Very cool trick to build underwater! Skål!
HI JIROC!! Thank you for watching and stopping by!!!
Have you tried setting a portal on the ocean floor and teleporting to it?
Haha yeah, it’s pretty anticlimactic though lol
@@MatsGamingChannel aw man
This is really cool! Man there are a lot of exploits to learn in this game. Now get some teleporters down there and you really got a stew goin!
Thanks! Thank you for watching! There's so much stuff we can do in this game lol!
Your videos are very well put together. Great demonstrations on how you create your builds. Underrated channel, I hope it grows!
Thank you! I really appreciate what you said!
crazy effort to do this, well done.
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
I wish this video was around 6 months ago! Thank you very much! Very informative and helpful.
Wow lol this is insane, I personally couldn't be bothered to do this but very fascinating to watch!
Thank you! Thank you for watching!
Insanity has no limits! my jaw is reaching the floor. 😅
Wow this is insane I am SWIPING this idea 😂😂😂🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻 Subbed! 😎
Man when this game ends up releasing officially, depending how world saves progress with updates I hope your underwater builds endure if not referenced if we ever do explore underwater proper because this was ingenious!
Wow, thank you so much! I really appreciate what you said! It would be really cool to get to explore underwater Thank you for watching!
If you use a firstperson view mod, you can suddenly have a lot clearer access to underwater construction. Sure, it's giving up the modless approach, but it's one heck of a fun project, if you like these unique challenges.
I've tried to bridge together two different islands with about a 40-50ingame meter long bridge. I used roof parts to dive underwater, and built multiple 1viking high scaffolding levels using wooden beams and 2x2 wooden flooring. This is basically the thing that will hold you underwater, allowing you to build in various heights, but you'll be swimming 100% of the time. This will require you to build sections where you can push your character down until it touches the surface underneath, basically refilling your stamina meter. Thankfully you cannot suffocate, so this way, it is possible to erect large iron beam supports all the way to surface level from the maximum depth of the ocean, this way you just need to build the bridge itself using the supports, and preferably make a section in it, which allows longboats to pass underneath.
My bridge got to a part where I had 4 supports fully built, but these were insufficient to hold a stone pavement fully, so I will have to add like 8 more supports to make it work out. Plus a firstperson mod, that works with mistlands. :D
Very nice! That’s a HUGE bridge you’re working on! With your strategy, Being able to walk on the bottom and see what you’re doing would be amazing!
@@MatsGamingChannel Probably the greatest turnoff is that it requires a lot of iron for the scaffolding, and descending takes a bit of time. The water has no textures unfortunately, so all you see if a sandy wasteland with fish floating around you.
Just make sure you don't fall upwards in the middle of the ocean, in case you try this. It's a drowning hazard.
If you're using mods, you might as well use build camera mods, which let you fly around using the camera and build anywhere u want
Another Great video! And I learned something new! Question: do you float to the top if you try using the ship's storage (since there is no character animation like rudder and ladder)?
Thank You! You can use the ship storage while underwater, it will not make you float away. I definitely recommend using ship storage!
@@MatsGamingChannel That's good to know because aside from creative mode it feels like that would be the only way to make it vaguely feasible lol. The core wood needed to push it down weighs a lot.
The inventory weight limit definitely slows things down a bit. You can also let some of your built items just float on the surface, as long as they’re out of your way and you remember to grab them before you go out of range. You can also build chests underwater at different stages through your projects as well.
That's incredible. Did you try placing a portal to give yourself a way to return to a marine structure?
Thanks! Underwater portals sound like an ultimate prank lol, I didn’t put one underwater - but I imagine that as soon as your character goes through it you’d just jet towards the surface lol
if you don't mind using mods, build camera would be useful. But doing it the hard way is praise worthy. Good job.
100%. Build camera is an awesome mod!
Does this also work with a Longship? Considering you would have more storage room and could therefore take more construction materials in one trip
You can do this with the longship (the raft as well). However, due to its size I found that the longship is often in the way, and it can also be a bit more difficult to place. Cumbersome is how I would describe it.
Same with the raft, the size is perfect - but the shape and how it interacts with the environment around it - makes it more difficult than the karve.
Closest thing I've seen to No Man's Sky glitch building in Valheim! Super awesome Matt, completely blown away at how you did this. Did you discover this by accident, or ?
Thanks Hubbz! I figured this out while I was trying to find a way to keep my boat from taking/causing damage to itself while it was parked in my dockhouse lol. I used the metal gates as boat locks to shove the boat below the waves so it wouldn't move.
So while i have zero interest in building a house underwater (unusable and thus no use to me) but this method would be great for those rare materials that fall to the depths. Thank you.
That’s a great idea!
i got motion sickness or sea sickness after trying to build a ship with mod... hope you still good after building that...
Oh no! That doesn't sound fun at all :( I tried to be nice to myself and take a break when my eyes started to bother me, but beyond that - nothing as bad as what you had :(
might use this just to make a properly long enough dock
Oooh nice! That’s a great idea!
Can you stick to the boat better by being emcumbered?
That’s a really good question! No, you float away just the same - just with less stamina!
Very clever, can you build a portal underwater this way. Wondering what happens if you portal in underwater lol
Thank you! If you portal in underwater your character immediately floats to the surface. If there’s a roof in the way, you can get stuck and run out of stamina 🪦
@@MatsGamingChannel haha makes sense. Thank you
What happens if you build a portal down there?
Lol nothing super exciting. Your character will float to the surface, unless you get stuck - then you can run out of stamina and 🪦
Really helpful video. Great stuff!
Thank you! Thank you for watching!
Jesus fn c man. I thought I was a genius by using thatch roofs all the way down so I can force my character against the sea floor, allowing my character to stand effectively tricking the game into believing I was on the surface. This would have made building the stone legs for my dock 1000x easier. As a matter of fact, I’m going to extend it to the distance I originally planned. Will update when I’m done
Update 1, don’t forget nails sink. If you’re not building too deep you can build up high and jump off to get deep enough to retrieve them
Hi DJR3M1XX! Thanks! That thatch roof method is pretty difficult lol! Hopefully this was able to help you on your project!
Oh man, I forget this all the time lol! Darn it!
@@MatsGamingChannel I forgot to update again, but yea after about 4 hours I managed to get somewhat decent at it. It’s still not easy, but easier than the roof method for most things
Genius.
Thank you! Thanks for watching!
Brilliant
But wait, what's the point of this if you can't use/access/live in it?
I think that’s a really good question. This project was partly for decoration, but also as a proof of concept.
In terms of usefulness, one example.
You can use this method to build docks and bridges over water that you would ordinarily need to use a mod to build in.
You have no Idea the giant monstrosity of a bridge I built using this trick.
Incredible!
This is absolutely preposterous
Bahahaha! Thanks tor watching!
Amazing
Thank you! Thank you for watching!
I can't wait to confuse my friends on our server
I can’t wait to hear about it! Thanks for watching!
🤯
What happens if you put a portal in that house xd?
You’ll go shooting up towards the surface before you’re loaded in. If there’s a roof over the portal, you’ll get stuck and run out of stamina. So, nothing good :p
@@MatsGamingChannel sad death ;c
🪦
@@igoodie6084 🪦
When a marine engineer plays Valheim 🤣
LOL! Thank you for watching!
So with enough persistence I can mage an ocean bridge. hmm.
Potentially, after about 20 meters down it becomes a really difficult experience, if your goal is to build across the ocean - I recommend trying a first person camera mod, if you want to try and keep the game as vanilla as possible.
Why? only why? Gab my head
555 likes, i guess don't push like button
Lol, Thanks for watching!
I disagree with your conjecture that this is fun to do.
100% fair! Make sure you give yourself lots of breaks when you start feeling frustrated!
Neat!
Now let do this at off edge of Valheim trying to get in there without being pushed away
That’s a great idea! I wonder what that would look like! Thank you for watching!
With this much effort you could just install the 2 necessary mods :/
Absolutely. I wouldn't recommend this process for anyone that can play with mods on their server.
Way to much effort, I just use no-clip to fly underwater, god mode and the First Person mod so I can see.
It's creative. But, what's the point? It's just useless.
Thanks for watching. The house itself serves as a decoration, and a proof of concept.
The technique that I used to build and decorate the house can be used on many other different applications, you aren’t limited to just building houses. :)
whats even the point
You can use this method for quite a few projects, decorations, foundations for water based platforms, buoys, etc. For example, I used this method to setup the platforms for all of the houses that are featured in this playlist.

broken in 2023? doesn't work
I’ve done a bit of testing here and there and it seems to still be working on both local and dedicated servers. Where are you having difficulties with this?
cool but absolutely pointless.
Thank you for watching!
this is ridiculous
I noticed that if I run to the side of boat to push it I get under it/the radius of boat pushes you against the underwater floor and you stop swimming and your stamina gets back up if you keep walking
Oooh that’s a really good observation! Well done! Thank you for sharing!
This is so useless tho
I appreciate you taking the time to watch and comment.
In terms of this build’s usefulness as a house it isn’t very usable. Lol, you’re right.
Not everything has to have an expressed purpose or use, or be used for that purpose only, for example - how many people put food on an item stand for decoration?
This house was my food, I’m just decorating the world.
I see it as a showcase of a technique you can use for underwater building in general, the underwater house is just a novel way of showcasing it. With this technique you could build underwater foundations for structures further out in deep water than you'd be able to otherwise.
