Minecraft - Minecraft Bi-Weekly Challenge #42: Lumberjack Cabin


Minecraft Bi-Weekly Challenge #42: Lumberjack Cabin

Posted: 01 Apr 2018 06:02 AM PDT

LAST WEEK'S THEME: TEMPLE

Gold

ScoutBuilds

I'll be honest, I didn't really like this build when I first looked at it,however, the more I do, the more I find myself loving all of it. See, I think the first thing that threw me off was the really bare ground around the building in a couple of the first pictures but afterwards, when I saw some of those long shots with the incredible landscaping, it made it better. Loved the temple itself, very well built but another thing I really liked was the underwater area (under the water but not in water). The colour palette there was awesome, we had a nice water blue, the quartz, the yellow sand and some nice green leaves to give it a bit more flavour. Looked great! Very good build!

Silver

TFishMeister

A really neat build that I think fit with its god--Hephaestus. All the neat contraptions and the scattered machines around the base really made me think that yeah, I could see Hephaestus or a follower of that god being there. Liked the interior a lot and I really liked the waterways, even though they weren't too extraordinary. I just like when people include waterways with water flowing down different levels as I find it helps tie a build in with the landscape. However, I feel that area is where this build lacks a bit. Around the build, beside the waterway and the scrapyard, the terrain was barely modified or used at all. Still, we found the build made up for that with the interior and exterior so good job still!

Bronze

Swaqqmasta

Really liked the landscape around this build. It felt complete, everything about it unlike some builds which only do the building and nothing around it. Really liked the skull as well, especially the eyes with the lava in it. However, after looking at the skull for a bit, I found it did become a bit bland (even though I thought it was spectacular first look). Not sure what could have been done to avoid this as another judge also commented on that. Maybe another block mixed into it? Another thing is I liked the interior of the skull but I felt there could have more inside it. Something a bit grander, since you had all that space, but it was still a great build!

Honourable mentions

Introduction

So, we're going to be getting rid of these challenge since we all don't like any builds that any of you do.... haha just joking, april fools! But honestly, it was great seeing all of the great entries this past week, hopefully we can keep it up with even more builds coming in!

After a couple of big challenges, we're going to be taking a small breather and doing some small scale challenges. For this week, we chose to make a lumberjack's cabin. So let's put on our big boots and get our axe cause we'll be building some lumberjack houses!

New Textures

People have been asking about the new textures. As of now, the textures are only in the testing phase and will possibly change in the future. We have decided that we'll wait from allowing them in the build challenge as of now until there's a more official release of them. This may change next challenge as we, the judges, haven't had a full discussion on the matter but as of now, this is the ruling. Happy building!

Minecraft's April Fools recourse pack has animated water!

Posted: 01 Apr 2018 06:11 AM PDT

Downloadable version of April Fools texture pack?

Posted: 01 Apr 2018 06:42 AM PDT

I need an honest headcount on how many people relaunched their game multiple times to fix the textures before realizing it's an April fools joke.

Posted: 01 Apr 2018 07:20 AM PDT

I'm playing ftb revelation and i relaunched twice to fix it, but ended up seeing xisumas video on the textures and almost immediately called myself an idiot under my breath.

April Fools Grass Texture looks like Grass Texture from Minicraft

Posted: 01 Apr 2018 06:33 AM PDT

I actually genuienly like the April Fools textures...

Posted: 01 Apr 2018 08:13 AM PDT

Is it just me, though? I really love the retro esthetic it gives to the game and I won't be surprised to find out that the community turns this into an actual resource pack. I just find it to be really nice! It looks like it was made to be disgusting.. but it's actually unintentional greatness. :P
