Building the bed is no problem, as it only takes a Workbench and some wood. You also need a shelter but that can once again be accomplished with some wood and a Hammer.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The problem lies with the message you receive when trying to sleep in your newly acquired bed. The game will tell you that you need a fire nearby in order to sleep. However, if you&rsquo;ve placed some wood floors down, a campfire cannot be placed. Luckily, there are some ways to navigate around this tricky dilemma.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h2 dir=\"ltr\">Building a campfire indoors in Valheim&nbsp;<\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/IM-5M7IblicBApebhhJD9nA2PIallJ1oBSyr6W8YlJ8\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzL05ld0ZvbGRlcl8xL1ZhbGhlaW1fR3VpZGVfZm9yX0JlZ2lubmVycy9jYW1wZmlyZV9pbmRvb3JzX2luX1ZhbGhlaW1fLlBORw\" alt=\"campfire indoors in Valheim\" width=\"626\" height=\"375\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">If you&rsquo;ve just built a base for the first time, you more than likely have the most basic of structures constructed. A roof, some walls and floor panels are what most players will have constructed with the minimal supplies Valheim offers early on.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">However, after you&rsquo;ve built all of this plus a bed, the game will then tell you that fire is needed. There are a couple of ways to circumvent this issue, both being fairly practical.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/video-games\/valheim-beginners-guide-best-tips-and-tricks-for-getting-started\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Valheim Beginners&#8217; Guide: Best tips and tricks for getting started<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">The first is to simply place your bed directly next to a wall and then place a campfire on the opposite side of the wall and outside of your base. Valheim will count this as a fire being nearby and your problem is solved. However, maybe your base is in a confined space and fire isn&rsquo;t possible outside.&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn-cf.ginx.tv\/imgcdn\/cB715k48cxPdRHksTxKQ7TA5uI_HociKwpFzqalgqBE\/rs:fill:0:0:1\/g:ce\/aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ2lueC50di91cGxvYWRzL05ld0ZvbGRlcl8xL1ZhbGhlaW1fR3VpZGVfZm9yX0JlZ2lubmVycy9WYWxoZWltX2NhbXBmaXJlX2hvdXNlLlBORw\" alt=\"Valheim campfire house\" width=\"625\" height=\"382\" loading=\"lazy\"><\/p>\n<p dir=\"ltr\">To build one indoors, you simply need to remove a floor panel and then place the campfire on the ground. If you&rsquo;ve built a hoe, you can use it to remove any grass from the barren patch of ground to make the design more aesthetically pleasing.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li dir=\"ltr\"><strong>Read more: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ginx.tv\/en\/video-games\/valheim-crafting-guide-all-recipes-upgrades-items-weapons-and-armour\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Valheim Crafting Guide: All recipes, upgrades, items, weapons, and armour<\/a><\/strong><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This trick also allows you to place a cooking station over the campfire so you can cook while staying inside. Although, you might want to remove a part of your roof if you&rsquo;re doing this, as the smoke from the fire will build up inside and kill you if you don&rsquo;t properly ventilate.<\/p>\n<p>And that&#8217;s it, you now have a campfire inside your first house!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>One of the first issues Valheim players face when first trying to progress is going to sleep.
