Chunk corruption causes?
Hey guys, I'm hoping some of you with the technical knowledge on mc game saves can help me out. I just had an interesting problem. After traveling to my village via nether I discovered two chunks in the middle of the village had been corrupted. One chunk was reset completely, and the other appeared ...

Yeah lighting in the floors and light projected through the ceiling. I always think of lighting as an afterthought and spam torches everywhere rather than making it part of the building. Neat stuff!

Re: New Release! (BTW V4.A4 Kiloblock Boon) - NO SPOILERS
Very excited to discover whatever it is that I should not worry about!
Thank you for the jungle spider fix. After lighting everything, burning the jungle down, and doubling my jungle spider farm spawn area I was out of ideas. This should take care of it!

I love the way you do lighting. It makes the default textures look really good that way.

Re: Form vs function in early-mid-late game
This is the most frustrating struggle for me. I want to develop the tech tree first as quickly as possible using resources as efficiently as possible until I have all the aesthetic design blocks I could possibly want. But I get tired of looking at dirt and cobblestone so usually whenever a farm or s...

Re: Mushroom farming questions, early game.
I just make a blacked out two high room pre mycelium. I keep each level small enough so that when I unblock the entrance all the mobs agro on me and come to the door. Easy to take them out that way. A little risk but it makes harvesting very fast since I don't have to strip out any blocks or chase m...

Wow! I found this post today as I was searching the forums trying to remember how to spawn the wither. I had the skulls and just needed the star to level my priest.

Best Death Sequence So Far
I've been jumping into BTW again after not having played for a while. I forgot how unforgiving hc spawn is! Anyway on one of my many noob hc spawns, I found myself in the water of a swamp as night was falling. A hat grabbed me, tossed me into the air, and while I hit the apex of his throw, a spider ...

Re: Secondary bases
Original spawn is my secondary base actually. As soon as I have power and sustainable food going I get out of Dodge and find an intersection of a swamp, normal, and jungle biome within reasonable proximity to a desert. I then construct a mob farm encompassing all three biomes and build my main base ...

Re: What happened to automation?
Personally I like having access to end stuff as soon as possible. So everything I do until I have sfs, is temporary buildings and hacked together half automated stuff. After sfs, I make full automation a goal with aesthetic buildings with a lot of white stone. Sfs armor also makes getting lots of wi...

Re: Separating cows and sheep
Your pen is decently large. When the cow is on one side with at least two sheep on the other extreme, wall off the two sheep as fast as you can and take the loss of the other sheep. Kill your cow and then let your remaining sheep back out into the larger pen area.

Hey guys I'm looking for good mobile survival game suggestions. Y'all are the folks who would pick good ones based on being btw fans. Got an android phone and iPad so either ecosystem is fine.

Re: What to do next
There actually is a benefit to paving over the nether with cement. I paved over an area so I could build a vine based gold farm and it works very well. The surface I have of course abandoned to the ghasts and I travel via tunnels. Cement can be a quick way to limit pigman spawns to where you want th...

Re: Nether piston pigman trap
Downside of this is you lose spawn spots at the corners since you have to have a place for the latch end point.DiamondArms wrote:

Mushrooms are one of the early farmer villager trades, good for building up emeralds. Other than that I have no use for them either.

Pre groth though it is the most time efficient way of at least controlling pigmen spawns. Good for an early gold farm.Niyu wrote:Cement over the nether? Be careful, ghasts can spawn on any material, includig stone. Nether groth is more useful to remove nether spawn.
