building a stone brick wall to separate the open area and the dark oak forest
>not borderless window modeI cant believe so many of you imbeciles play like this
>>719438409go on anon
>>719438838borderless window mode does not exist in 1.12.2
You should look at medieval castle walls for reference.
>>719438409DO IT
>>719439126Good idea thanks
Gotta keep the darkies out, OP?
>>719439341Just want to keep the mobs out
Good luck with your build, anon!
>>719441089Thanks
Comfy thread. Good luck building, OP!
>>719438409we wanna see more dude
The wall is looking more complete
i'm mentally fuckin' retarded
walls are raycists
>>719438409try using stairs for crenellations, and towers at corners
>>719443461is that a pun or did you misspell racists
>>719443517Good idea i'll use that
anon tear down this wall
BUILD THAT WALL
>>719443563I misspelled it on purpose like nigs do with ebonics and call it "culture".
>>719444174Ok just wanted to know
>>719438409The wall being built at the bottom of a hill bothers me but I'm sure the finish product will still be jump proof. I always define my home borders along ridges.
does anyone have tips on how to get a lot of cobblestone
>>719444502You should probably enchant some pickaxes and put on a podcast or something, and get busy.
>>719444931ok i'll mine for some diamonds and lapis
>>719438838How do you find out if someone is a Borderless Window user?Don't worry, they'll tell you.
>>719438409finally a good thread, keep us updated op
>>719438409>stone brickPatrician.
>>719445089good luck finding the diamonds and lapis bro
I now have the stone i needed so lesson learned go mining for diamonds i have more than 3 stacks of stone
>>719444502>>719447029You can make a cobblestone generator with the iron you probably found.Just get two buckets, go snag some lava and some water, and arrange them like this. The middlemost block will always become cobblestone when the lava and water touch.
>>719447085Yeah, do this, and use tape to hold mouse 1 down while you go eat dinner or whatever.
I am about to be done with this wall
>>719448660Post pics!! Please !!!
After 2 or 3 hours its done
>>719448938Now are you going to spice it up a bit?
>>719448938are there slabs in this version? you could put a row of them across the top so spiders cant climb over. >>719449052whats that wood in the middle supposed to be?
>>719449218Walls aren't just made of stone. They'd have wooden logs to hold them up.Here's a simpler one. The walls I made around my villagers used to look like this.
>>719449052yes
>>719449218yes there are slabs and the wood in the middle is a door
>>719449390I don't think that's necessarily true? That wood, over time, would rot and become a weak point in the wall. Meaning not only would it require maintenance in the future, assuming it doesn't collapse suddenly, but the rain/water would get into and ruin the masonry. Do you have a source for that?Not knocking you or anything, I think the walls look good. If it wasn't so time consuming, I'd probably make a wall in my own world.
The wall is decorated with slabs at the top and complete
>>719450086>decoratedYeah, but it's still not fully defensible. Spiders can climb walls, so the top needs a kind of lip to stop them from coming up. If you look at these >>719449052 >>719449390 you'll see how they use upside-down stair blocks to stop it. The stair blocks jut out a bit, then you build on top of that stair block and it widens the top of the wall a bit.And once that's all done, you can get to work on a nice house within the boundaries of your new wall. Maybe later convert the treehouse into a watchtower.
>>719450334ok i'll put slabs on the outside first tho i am going to take a break
It needs depth, an overhang with some arches.
Sovl
>>719450086grrrr! you are building it wrong, please follow the guide of my favorite youtuber!
>>719450086it looks great op, thank you for sharing your progress with us. what is next for your minecraft adventure?
>>719438838I absolutely detest borderless window modeor fullscreen modegive me maximized windows I can resize at willand I swear, if window sizes are limited to a small set of resolution presets, you're going straight to the deepest layers of hell
based minecraftlover saving /v/ one thread at a time
minecraftlover what is your favorite block?
>>719454147Concrete, any color of it
>>719452216building a storage room
>>719454620what's your least favorite block?
>>719438409shields are so fucking gaythey take up 1/6 of the screen and make the controls confusing
>>719455317Stone cause i get a lot of it when mining for ores then i put it in my chest then it sits there cause i dont have any ideas
>>719455396So you're dumb and blind
>>719455396i use them cause the help when fighting creepers, skeletons, and anything that has a ranged attack
Alright anon time to answer:>you have a home in a relatively flat plains biome>you want to make a road from your house to nearby ocean >there is a hill in your way what do you do to the hill?>remove it to match the rest of the landscape?>go over it ?>make a tunnel and go through?>make the path go around the hill
>>719455479based i'm the samefuck jeb (or was it still notch) who made these "cosmetic" stone block veins pop up and just take inventory space while being fuckugly for decoration
>>719443786that's slander
>>719455590Make the path go around to save on tool durability, chest space, and inventory space
>>719455590How big is the hill? Is there a flat surface on top? If so, how wide is the platform?
>>719454710I don't know why but I always build my storage underground.
ayup
>>719455696its your hill you decide
>>719455590If it's a high enough hill I'll try to make a serpentine road with safety fencesBut who am I kidding I'll just burrow through it and it'll look like your usual 2009 my_first_metro_station
>>719450086>dat treehouse-watchtower hybridkino
>>719455590I build the path over it.
>>719455479thanks, best of luck in your minecraft adventures. great thread btw
>>719438409my digga'texturing' is a spook
>>719455590man bends nature to its whims i build through that shit and never let anything generated stand in my way
>>719455791Thanks
>>719455590I will NEVER remove the terrain, I'll always build with it in mind. Building underneath is ugly, and depending on the size, I'll either build around it or build the road over it.
>>719455590if the slope is gentled enough to make the path have slabs so you can walk up and over, make path over. otherwise a tunnel or a cut
>>719455590A tastefully decorated tunnel. If the hill isn't too tall, I install a pond with a glass bottom above the tunnel.
Whats the best way to turn concrete powder into concrete, i just place a bunch of the concrete powder into a body of water, then mine the concrete, then repeat but is there a more efficient way to do they
>>719456141if there's no overhang, you just place the powder where you want it, and then use a water bucket to place water on it. if you're quick enough you can pick the water back up before it floods anything
>>719455824texturing just looks ugly, once again normies prove they have shit taste
>>719456193Thanks i will do that cause i am building a simple one room storage building
>>719439448the why don't you make cobblestone wall and then gradually remove it day to day?
>>719456550Cause it saves on durability on pickaxes yes i do have a lot of iron like 39 or 40 blocks of ore but i am saving the iron to do some redstone later
Storage finished
Now i will get diamonds whats the best y level to mine diamonds
Who’s gonna pay for that wall
>>719457794No one got the stone for it myself and i found an emerald
I found diamonds i dont have an image cause i need to make another iron pickaxe
Federal court here. We're issuing a preliminary injunction on the construction of your wall. Stop being racist and allow the zombies in please, thank you :)
>>719458540and i have the wall to stop most passive mobs from getting in the way of me building so i wont be removing the wall
and here's a photo of the diamonds there's 9 in total and an emerald
>>719458859wtf where are they?
>>719458894sorry for got the image here's the image
Expanded my farm to have chickens
>>719459452Where's your chicken coop bro.
>>719459868its the fence off to the left of the image
Made paths to my farm, the chickens and storage
>>719455590Tunnel through the hill if it's a wide hill, path around if it's not
I have a stack and 1 of sugarcane what do i do with it except for books cows are not that in the forest i am in
>>719461150Cows are not that common
>>719438409>2 block high wallyour ancestors are crying
I like making a chicken coop with a trapdoor as a window because the chickens love to look out the window and they stay inside most of the time, so I can put a hopper in there and collect all the eggs.
>>719461659The wall is taller than 2 blocks now that its finished
>>719438838it depends on what OS im using and whether i like the UI or not.
>medievalName a more normalfag theme than this. 90% of builds in minecraft are medieval themed. Be original for once. Why don't you make an aztec or andalusian styled wall? retard.
>>719462239I can't make child sacrifices in minecraft, Anon.
>>719462392you LITERALLY can
>>719462239cause i dont like to make builds like that i preferer simple builds like the wall i built
>>719462239kill yourself nigger
>>719462424(((merchants))) dont have souls tho
>>719462239If it aint broke
>>719462239I prefer late medieval/renaissance era with early steam power which is canon to minecraft anywayThere's almost nothing "medieval" in this game
>>719462679Everything is medieval, AnonAll you have is fucking stone to build.Redstone is for autists
>>719462865I didn't know steam powered carts were a thing in a medieval eraAnd redstone is a substitute to both oil and electricity
>>719462990Yeah, redstone is a substitute to oil and electricity so in real life, minecraft is around the late 1700s and early to mid1800s cause the light bulb was discovered in 1879 and the redstone lamp is the most advanced thing in the game so the game is around 1879, i say around cause who knows how advanced Steve or the ancient builders could be, in short minecraft in terms of advancements minecraft is around 1879
>>719455860>>719455967The duality of Steve
Made a hopper system and it works, happy it works cause stuff i make with redstone is a gamble if it works first or second try
Unrelated to the thread, but I wish Vintage story had more content in general instead of mind numbingly boring homesteading
>>719439185kek
>>719464392Me too havent played it yet but it seems fun for one playthrough
>>719464392yeah, i think there's about 20 hours worth of content. With Better Ruins it adds quite a bit more because it's fun to go off and explore, see all the cool builds. the combat is hit or miss for some people, and for me, food becomes an annoyance. So Vintage Story and Minecraft end up being the same for me which is just building random shit.
>>719462392>>719462424>nu Fallout doesn't let you kill kids>Minecraft doeswdtmbt
>>719453484>if window sizes are limited to a small set of resolution presets, you're going straight to the deepest layers of hellDeltarune and undertale do this and it makes me wish someone would brutally murder toby fox
Found 6 diamonds
>>719462239The Aztecs were Medieval. They lived on a lake. What wall?
>>719465260fuckin sweet dudewhat are you going to do with them
>>719465260you convinced me to start a new world.
>>719465987Made a diamond helmet to go with my diamond boots, and look at all these chickens not knowing that when the pen gets overcrowded half or most f them are going to be turned into fried chicken
>>719466271me in the top left
Fishing idk if i can get anything other than fish in 1.12.2 but i am happy to have another food source that doesnt have me breaking grass to breed
>>719466810just answered my question about being able to catch other things that arent fish in 1.12.2, i can
>>719466810>>719466937I think fishing might be cracked in 12.2if I'm not mistaken you can get all sorts of loot including enchanted booksI can't remember if it's a version before they fixed the automatic fishing farm too
>>719467141yeah i think fishing is cracked too in 1.12.2 cause i got an enchanted book with looting 2 and knockback 2
This my diamond sword now
>>719467249if you want to break your game set up an afk fisher https://youtu.be/DRqPAFZ_uN8otherwise pretend you were never cursed with knowledge
>>719467935i am going to go mining for iron and follow a tutorial to build one for the version of the game i am playing on
>>719468185VERY cool
Posting in /v/'s greatest thread right now. Based minecraftlover keep us updated
>>719468251I will keep you updated and i also found an emerald not by mining but i saw it
which biome are horses most common in cause i just looted my first dungeon and i have a name tag and diamond horse armor
>>719469178Plains biomes I think, just search in grassy biomes out in the open for easy spotting
>>719469620Thanks
sticking to normal fishing cause trying an auto fisher caused my fishing rod to get down to like a quarter of the bar of durability
>>719457375>0 torchesyou live dangerously
>>719472053Yes i do
>>719466271I still have ptsd from my first ever chicken farm. I used them for exp. It was like a 1x2 full of chickens. when I got close, I would pick up eggs, I would throw them in the enclosure. I remember seeing the chicks break free from the egg and falling into the chicken abyss, into the poutine concentration camp. Sometimes, they wouldnt fall, they would somehow get stuck in the wall and suffocate. i remember thinking those were the lucky ones.minecraft if fucked up man
