I'm still having editing software problems, but I'm glad I got a video out. I know the audio quality is not like it was before, I have to fix it all, but I don't have time anymore to work on it today.
So, it looks like if I want two stacked layers, my building needs to be a minimum of 3 wall units high, correct? Also, I just wanted to mention: It was recently pointed out to me that using mortar-and-pestles for storage is probably the most space-saving, low-cost method of storage. Of course, you can't pin-code them or label them. But it's a pretty good tip, anyways.
I do the same thing but ontop of catwalks instead of ceilings so you can still get right to the edge of your building and still reach the upper boxes. I typically use the space below for crafting stations though
Thanks for that tip. I was wondering how one could use this double-stacking along with crafting station positioning. It's too bad that the ceiling sticks out so much on the back side of each row. I had thought maybe I'd just make the room larger and put the crafting stations on the back side. (Of course, I'd have to use more pillars in order to keep the second level of storage boxes up.) Another thing I'm going over in my mind is maybe there's a way to raise both the left and right rows (or lower the center aisle)... and then put the crafting stations on a floor ABOVE that central aisle. And then I'm also running through my mind...the video shows a building designed for a human to walk the materials in. It'd be nice to see some designs where you can bring something like ankylo-sized or a beaver... at the bottom....and perhaps an upper level where you can bring in smaller flyers and unload. So many possibilities! I'm glad we have "local mode" to play around. But when I have time to play, I'm anxious to play in the game, not in "local mode".
David Raasch Both the ceilings and catwalks can run unsupported after theyve connected to walls overtop of foundations or lower level ceilings (much like some bridge-building hacks). Maybe I should make a video or something. Also you can build a minumum 3-wall-high complete structure shell then drop wall or door frame sections from the ceiling in any span you intend to cover then hang the catwalks from that so you don't block any floor space either for small/medium dinos or your tribemates from walking through freely or also for placing crafting stations and such underneath their corresponding storage box/bookshelf for each type of station.
I couldn't get it to work right. I assume building it with metal is the same as stone, yes? I tried a few times but I couldn't access the top bins. I gave up and went farming for more metal lol. I'll keep trying. Could you try it with metal and let me know? Thanks, Fresonis! You da man!
yea it works also with metal: SPP shows it in this video ua-cam.com/video/EgKFoWFHhVg/v-deo.html You have to be sure the boxes are sticking a bit out of the ceiling/foundation, otherwise the ceiling where the top boxes are standing on, will block the access
Maybe if you have no foundations where the boxes go you could reach all 3 boxes by having a row of foundations in the middle? Or some sort of similar design.
Heh...it's too bad we can't figure out some glitch that would allow you to pull a dino up along the outside of the building, unload into stacked storage boxes, and then have them be accessible on the inside too, right next to crafting stations. (I have an interest lately in efficient base designs...in terms of common workflows. In kitchens, in real life, they talk about the "work triangle"... the distance between the fridge, the sink, and the stove. Seems like we can apply similar concepts to Ark.) I suppose I could use windows to unload through, but in my experience, you can't seem to reach much through a window.
Hey man, awesome video thanks. I just want to know, how do you do the 3rd row of boxes? I can't seem to get the ceiling to snap to the right height for the third row. My plan is to make a massive stack right next to and in line with an elevator platform which I can use to access the top boxes.
I checked the video and what I think I did was to place it like the first part, after you have a ceiling on first wall high, then pillar and then another ceiling for the second row of large boxes.... you theb snap another pillar onto that first pillar and maybe you need another one or maybe first you place a ceiling, connect pillar to that ceiling so this pillar is a bit higher than the ceiling an connect a ceiling again. If this is not high enough, continue doing this until you get to the height you need for the 3rd row of boxes
I cant get this to work the ceiling keeps being obstructed so I turn off collisions but I cant seem to get the pillar to snap with part of it showing through the top of the ceiling. Any help would be great :)
yea, I built on pillars and using Adobe ceilings for the floor. and with Adobe pillars I never could get the ceilings high enough to place the second set of boxes.. ended up using stone pillars with stone ceilings on them and it worked.
Ok I know I'm late to the party but it seem you can make a floor after the second level of storage boxes, then stack another two storage boxes rinse and reapeat!
Rats, I am trying to do this with double-wall thickness. But the ceiling won't snap into the large storage boxes. I know I have them placed correctly, as I have done this before successfully.
hehe :P yea I'm Dutch, but I'm not gonna make Dutch videos, because my channel is English so I can reach people worldwide and I don't wanna make a second channel for Dutch videos, too much work
Hi Fresonis, when I saw this video it inspired me to see if there was a way to do it with small storage boxes too. Here's the result: ua-cam.com/video/BGHYpNqxYmE/v-deo.html I put a link to your video on the endscreen if that's ok ;)
HELLO FRESONIS can you do an a fasth vidio about comands for build a house with ceilings and foundations? or , can you do this , in a final of vidio , i will wach ;) saludos desde españa
Heayy frensonis, lang niet gesproken. Ik heb nieuws: mijn laptop krijgt een SSD kaart! 😄. Nog een weekje en dan heb ik heb terug... En de eerste game die ik erop zet is natuurlijk ark😎 Dus als je je verveelt kun je me altijd roepen 😊 ik commenteer weer wanneer ik de laptop terug heb byeeee ☺️ -Lisanns
Nice that you get it early, I will not game much, I'm every now and then on the patreon server doing stuff and I also at the SE server of JayEx23 with the survival series
fre, i have even more bad news :"( my grand-mother is going into spine surgery and has occasional spazms and may never be able to walk again, my life sucks
Sorry to hear you have more bad stuff happening in your life now :( It's hard and the battles are tough, but always try to see the bright side of things and get your strength out of those. I know it's easy to say, because I don't look much to the bright side of things when I feel bad etc. I wish you, your family the best!
Hello Fresonis ! Sorry for asking such political questions but I'm really interested in your Opinion about Trump as the 45. president of The United States! Did you even vote and if yes , did you vote Hillery Clinton or Trump ? Perhaps you ask yourself why I'm interested in such stuff but actually It's a really big theme here in Germany , and almost all of us are shocked because of Trump's triumph. Of Course my question does'nt make sense if you're British or sth. different . So if you're not an American just write or tell ne your opinion about this theme ! 😀
Sein Akzent ist sehr stark und sein Englisch ist auch ziemlich einfach. Mit Englisch kann man halt viel mehr Leute erreichen, also wird er wohl nur Englisch reden. Aber mir gefällts sein Humor ist super und sein Englisch dadurch das er kein Muttersprachler ist auch schön verständlich. ;)
Hoe moest ik weten dat jij geen engels kon praten en ik zag de video en ik dacht mischien kan dat van pas komen. Dus leer engels of maak een nederlands kanaal........
I'm still having editing software problems, but I'm glad I got a video out. I know the audio quality is not like it was before, I have to fix it all, but I don't have time anymore to work on it today.
THX FIR THIS AGAIN MAN IT HELPS ALOT BUT I DONT HAVE THE GAME :( SADLY BUT ITS COOOOOLLLLL
i like the way you are speaking :D from where are you? Nice video
GamerLP159 :) I'm from The Netherlands
Fresonis oh nice im from Germany :)
Fresonis like this if you really understand 'als je dit leest ben je een ezel' XD
To perfectly align yourself while building, place a ladder down in the direction you want to look. It will snap you to the angle it faces.
thnx for the tip!
Very nice comment
I love you!

idk if anyone mentioned this, but the catwalk might work if you place a ceiling first, then replace it with the catwalk. great vid man, keep it up!
So, it looks like if I want two stacked layers, my building needs to be a minimum of 3 wall units high, correct?
Also, I just wanted to mention: It was recently pointed out to me that using mortar-and-pestles for storage is probably the most space-saving, low-cost method of storage. Of course, you can't pin-code them or label them. But it's a pretty good tip, anyways.
David Raasch smithy are good if you have space and need lots of storage to and yes 3 high I think
Yeah, I already use those first, but they take up a ton of space.
David Raasch away
yea mortar and pestles are a good choice also and indeed you can place a lot in a small space
Excellent vid Fresonis, thanks for your efforts
I do the same thing but ontop of catwalks instead of ceilings so you can still get right to the edge of your building and still reach the upper boxes. I typically use the space below for crafting stations though
+Clone Incorporated yea thats also nice to do

Nice!!! The Flying Dutchman strikes again!
XD
I couldn't get it to work right. I assume building it with metal is the same as stone, yes? I tried a few times but I couldn't access the top bins. I gave up and went farming for more metal lol. I'll keep trying. Could you try it with metal and let me know? Thanks, Fresonis! You da man!
yea it works also with metal: SPP shows it in this video ua-cam.com/video/EgKFoWFHhVg/v-deo.html
You have to be sure the boxes are sticking a bit out of the ceiling/foundation, otherwise the ceiling where the top boxes are standing on, will block the access
Yep, I didn't have the boxes sticking out far enough. Got it figured out, thank you.
I wonder if it works with vaults......
I think it will work with vaults also, but they are higher to reach
is it working with Safes too?
I always come back to your builds please make updated build videos again
I would be very interested in some tree platform base designs, or if you have any cool designs for bases that don't require flat land to build on. :)
I will have to see what I can do for that, people have asked me in the past also about it
very handy and working on a storage building right now so saved me some space
Maybe if you have no foundations where the boxes go you could reach all 3 boxes by having a row of foundations in the middle? Or some sort of similar design.
Thanks for this video really handy to know :)
:)
To be perpendicular to the wall you can just keep running into it until you don't slide left or right.
If the Piller want snap use the technic to rise Fondation.
always with great information. Thanks Fresonis.
:D
Does this technique work anymore? I am trying to do this but the second ceiling is still slightly shorter than the box.
Maybe you can reach third row by placing small boxes or smithies on the floor?
Nog veel succes met je videos hé man.
Thnx! :)
Heh...it's too bad we can't figure out some glitch that would allow you to pull a dino up along the outside of the building, unload into stacked storage boxes, and then have them be accessible on the inside too, right next to crafting stations.

I suppose I could use windows to unload through, but in my experience, you can't seem to reach much through a window.
yea always good to have a nice workflow, windows are a option, but you only can access what is in front of the window
Just put a window in the walk
nice video :) and very useful tip ! tnx
Hey man, awesome video thanks. I just want to know, how do you do the 3rd row of boxes? I can't seem to get the ceiling to snap to the right height for the third row. My plan is to make a massive stack right next to and in line with an elevator platform which I can use to access the top boxes.
Euhm I can't remember how I did that years ago. Sorry. I like your idea though!
I checked the video and what I think I did was to place it like the first part, after you have a ceiling on first wall high, then pillar and then another ceiling for the second row of large boxes.... you theb snap another pillar onto that first pillar and maybe you need another one or maybe first you place a ceiling, connect pillar to that ceiling so this pillar is a bit higher than the ceiling an connect a ceiling again. If this is not high enough, continue doing this until you get to the height you need for the 3rd row of boxes
does this work with refrigerators?
Keep up the hard work. You never fail to make me smile :D
+REDSTONE WORKS Woooohooo!!! :D
How do you select the different snap points?
The world may never know.
press Q and Z
Press △ for PS4.
Q or back buttton ( left of home button )
R1 in PS4 to cycle between snap points. Triangle to place walls inside-out
You are my top 5 favorite youtuber, you deserve alot more subs!!!
Thnx! :D I hope the channel will grow bigger
I cant get this to work the ceiling keeps being obstructed so I turn off collisions but I cant seem to get the pillar to snap with part of it showing through the top of the ceiling. Any help would be great :)
try using the cycle snappoint button and see if you can get that snappoint you need
Love this. Great tip
:)
Are you netherlands
You can't demolish the ceilings?
Can you tell, or show how to stack 3 high? I've been studying your video trying to figure it out, but not having any luck. Thanks :)
I haven't tested it, because if I stacked it higher, I couldn't reach if from the ground floor.
Hey Fresonis, I was wondering if you could explain how to get third level of storage boxes? Thx
I did the same technique, just higher ;)
Fresonis thanks for the fast reply, I must be doing something wrong on my game, as the pillars don't seem to stack higher then the second row.
this doesn't work on ceiling floors? trying this with Adobe and the second ceiling is still too low.
You mean ceiling as ground floor instead of foundation? I assume it should just work the same
Fresonis yea , either the pillar just wouldn't get In the spot or Adobe one is a bit shorter. ended up using stone and it worked
weird that adobe didn't work, maybe indeed a bit shorter than stone
yea, I built on pillars and using Adobe ceilings for the floor. and with Adobe pillars I never could get the ceilings high enough to place the second set of boxes.. ended up using stone pillars with stone ceilings on them and it worked.
Can you use This to stack preserving bins?
sure, maybe the height works different, so you need to see what works for that, but it should work
Awesome idea.
Ok I know I'm late to the party but it seem you can make a floor after the second level of storage boxes, then stack another two storage boxes rinse and reapeat!
hehe a whole tower of storageboxes :P
Does this this work?
that would be really cool if you made a series on primitive plus I know some things are broken but it's a really cool mod
I've seen some stuff for the next patch that will fix a lot for P+, so I wait until that comes out before I gonna start with P+
Rats, I am trying to do this with double-wall thickness. But the ceiling won't snap into the large storage boxes. I know I have them placed correctly, as I have done this before successfully.
Hmmm... it seems that being in a corner is the problem. I can move one square to the right and it works.
Goat at 1:56 lol
Nice ik kom er nu pas achter dat je NL bent echt Nice! Zou je lets plays kunnen doen in het Nederlands?
hehe :P yea I'm Dutch, but I'm not gonna make Dutch videos, because my channel is English so I can reach people worldwide and I don't wanna make a second channel for Dutch videos, too much work
how do you select snap points? :)
Q and E
btw love your videos!
nice thx finally done!!!
nice video ps are you dutch xD
can you put music behind ur vids?
Hallo fresonis ik vroeg me af op welke server jij speelt? kun je alsjeblieft antwoorden. Dank je.
Evan
I play on my patreon only server
Hi Fresonis, when I saw this video it inspired me to see if there was a way to do it with small storage boxes too. Here's the result: ua-cam.com/video/BGHYpNqxYmE/v-deo.html
I put a link to your video on the endscreen if that's ok ;)
nice trick and good video! That link is fine :)
Thank you!
Ah nice thanks :D
Wooden catwalks also do the job
Does this still work? I can't do it
I haven't done this trick in the last 2 years. So I don't know if it still works. Maybe they changed something
WAS this patched?
next video about stacking behamut gates please!!!
stacking behemoth gates?? woooow, why would you do that?
Once you get a fabricator, just make vaults
I like your accent soo much :)
thats nice! :)
HELLO FRESONIS can you do an a fasth vidio about comands for build a house with ceilings and foundations? or , can you do this , in a final of vidio , i will wach ;) saludos desde españa
you want me to show you how to use console commands to spawn stuff in and to build something?
yes , but , like in a typical server , no in one player , only , the comands of the keyboard , sorry if you didnt understand ;P
but the commands of the keyboard you can find in the options menu ;)
Google can sometimes also help if it's not in the options menu
okay , a lot of thanks , you are a good person ;D
You can easily just slide them to the edge, they don't have to be perfect in the middle at least the 2nd row??????????
Yay i can have more storage and space now!!!!
:D
Wow, so smart xD
Heayy frensonis, lang niet gesproken. Ik heb nieuws: mijn laptop krijgt een SSD kaart! 😄. Nog een weekje en dan heb ik heb terug... En de eerste game die ik erop zet is natuurlijk ark😎
Dus als je je verveelt kun je me altijd roepen 😊 ik commenteer weer wanneer ik de laptop terug heb byeeee ☺️

Hey,
Nice that your laptop gets a SSD, it will be smooth running :)
So a few more days waiting and then you can enjoy Ark again!
Yup, im looking forward
OMG lijkt erop dat ik hem OF morgen OF maandag krijg... Jeeeej! Zullen we dan ARK'en? Lijkt me geweldig! Bwt: felicitaties voor de 18K subs'
Nice that you get it early, I will not game much, I'm every now and then on the patreon server doing stuff and I also at the SE server of JayEx23 with the survival series
Dussssss zullen wij dan ARK'en?
Als je me wilt bellen: skype is: lisannevdmeer

Nice info but you could use OCD storage stacking mod hahahah
if your on a server that has that mod, yea you can use that :P
Malafor745 yeah not everyone is a dedi bob
why not just build a vault?
fre, i have even more bad news :"(
my grand-mother is going into spine surgery and has occasional spazms and may never be able to walk again, my life sucks
but thanks for always being here to support me :")
you have kept me happy in the darkest of times, never quit this channel by trumps order!
Sorry to hear you have more bad stuff happening in your life now :(
It's hard and the battles are tough, but always try to see the bright side of things and get your strength out of those.
I know it's easy to say, because I don't look much to the bright side of things when I feel bad etc.

Ich muss dich wohl enttäuschen aber er ist aus den Niederlanden. Steht auf jeden Fall so in der Kanalinfo. :)
Also redet er nur Englisch um von allen verstanden zu werden oder wohnt er in Amerika ?
Sein Akzent ist sehr stark und sein Englisch ist auch ziemlich einfach. Mit Englisch kann man halt viel mehr Leute erreichen, also wird er wohl nur Englisch reden. Aber mir gefällts sein Humor ist super und sein Englisch dadurch das er kein Muttersprachler ist auch schön verständlich. ;)
Ich finde auch dass er sehr unterhaltend ist und solange man ihn versteht passt alles ! Mir persönlich ist der Akzent nur selten aufgefallen .
