A gamer on Valheim has constructed a remarkable clone of  Elden Ring's Raya Lucaria Academy. Players have constructed numerous amazing bases since Valheim was introduced, but this one could be the best. 

Players could construct with hundreds of resources when Valheim was first released, and subsequent patches have added many more. In April 2024, Iron Gate Studio released an update for Valheim Ashlands that featured a new biome, additional resources, equipment, and building materials, as well as changes to opponent spawn locations. Many players were scrambling to finish all of the bosses and biomes before new ones were added before the Ashlands release. Instead, one player decided to use a few workarounds to recreate Elden Ring's enormous Raya Lucaria Academy.

A video that shows their meticulous replication of Elden Ring's Raya Lucaria Academy in Valheim was recently released by YouTuber Jcberenklauw. The Raya Lucaria Academy's bridge and one of its smaller buildings are the first things the camera focuses on in the clip. Next, the player pans to three enormous towers that push the boundaries of the game's build capabilities after displaying the building from a variety of angles. The multiple instances operating in the area at once causes some frame rate drops in the video. While one section of the film displays one of the finished interiors, another pans up the towers to highlight things pop in. Although one building appears to be fully furnished, the YouTuber verified that several interior spaces are vacant.

How Was the Elden Ring Site Chosen?

The player made advantage of mods like Heightmaps, debug mode, and Valheim console commands. They can increase the game's ceiling higher than it otherwise would be by using heightmaps, which allow them to raise or decrease terrain without any restrictions. The majority of console instructions were used to spawn rocks, which avoided the requirement to make sure every construction was firmly anchored to the earth in accordance with the game's physics. The YouTuber claims that the constructing procedure took over 250 hours and that the local frame rate has dropped as low as 6 frames per second. This Elden Ring area was constructed using a variety of materials, including stone, wood, iron, bronze, and wood of various kinds.

Despite the amazing construction of this Raya Lucaria Academy duplicate, the film emphasizes Valheim's technological shortcomings. This player might have to restart games in order to keep dedicating themselves to Elden Ring in the survival game in order to avoid crashes. Frame problems such as these could be fixed in a later patch as Iron Gate Studio keeps updating the game.
