Minecraft - Minecraft Bi-Weekly Build Challenge #12: Queen of Heart's Castle


Minecraft Bi-Weekly Build Challenge #12: Queen of Heart's Castle

Posted: 05 Feb 2017 05:00 AM PST

LAST WEEK'S THEME: SPACE STATION

Gold

StarTux

Perfect Space build. The giant structure, coloured in a monotone grey looks great compared to the blue solar panels nearby. Neither colour is too much for the eye. The interior is also very well made, using 'gravity' with their build. Well done and you made me want to build one in my world now too!!!


Silver

Dshock336

Another great station which utilizes colour so well! The trick that this challenge had was that in space, only certain blocks could be used to make it look like it belonged in space. Both the first and second place builds used that colour so very very well making it seem realistic and beautiful as well. Gorgeous build and the only reason it didn't get first was that /u/SpaceTux's interior was very good as well as the exterior and the windows looking in on it added just that small bit of detail that won over.


Bronze

LordCommandeFang

Good exterior build that used some different sets of blocks which looked nice and stuck with the theme. The shape of the ships were also unique and looked pretty good. However the interior was quite bland and maybe some other details like tables, chairs, etc would have spiced it up a bit.

Introduction

Thanks to /u/ytae for this challenge!

Love is in the air!! This week we are going to be doing a valentine's day competition by building Queen's of hearts castle. Although this castle may be from Alice in Wonderland, we're not asking for you to recreate it. As long as it has the specific requirements and has a theme of love, it'll be fit for this challenge!

I was NOT expecting this.

Anyone else think builds are way more satisfying if you make them in Survival?

Posted: 05 Feb 2017 06:04 PM PST

It makes me feel like I worked for it.

I dunno, what about you guys?

Optifine, an outdated pack, and a busted connected texture that I can't seem to fix. Any experienced texture authors who may be able to lend a hand?

Posted: 05 Feb 2017 05:07 PM PST

Hi!

So I'm having a problem with Optifine and my favorite resource pack, Halcyon Days 3D (linked here: http://www.planetminecraft.com/texture_pack/162152-halcyon-days-resource-pack-32x/ )

The pack was last updated for Minecraft 1.8, and has continued to work just fine until around the time of 1.10.2. Up through 1.10.2 Optifine HD D4 Ultra, everything worked perfectly fine. However, beginning with 1.10.2 Optifine HD D6 Ultra and all versions onward, the connected textures for hardened clay on this pack were all broken.

Mind, it was -only- hardened clay that ceased to work with the CTM. All other textures in the pack that use the CTM still work perfectly.

To say I'm a novice at figuring out how these things are coded is a massive overstatement. I've tried toggling with the CTM properties files in the MCPatcher folder of the pack, to no avail. I've even tried re-doing all of the hardened clay CTM myself, by copying the CTM models of packs that work, but I'll be honest, I don't even know where to begin. I've had the damndest time finding a guide on the topic that doesn't totally overwhelm me.

I've tried contacting ikezou, the creator of the pack, but it seems that they've been inactive for a year. There's a link to the Japanese Minecraft forum that they've left on the page, but I can't make any sense of it -- I DID try snooping around there thanks to Google Chrome's page-translating option, but even then, it looks like the author has been inactive for a very long time.

So... Yeah, I guess that's it? This pack is my absolute favorite, and I've been keeping myself in older versions of the game because I don't want to play without it, and the hardened clay CTM is among the best parts of the pack, 3D models aside.

So, could anyone lend a hand?
