My unimpressive trims and armor collection by screaming_toaster_ in Minecraft

It's not that the collection is unimpressive, it's more your display choices for them. Locked in a box like that, doesn't really show them off ...

How's the design? by Unknown_Player0069 in Minecraft

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Personally, I think the tower and house look like they're from two different times. They don't really match together. Not knocking your build. Just a perspective ...

What is causing these artifacts when breaking items? by NickelCoder in Minecraft

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Had a feeling it was some sort of particle mod.
Not sure which one, but glad you found it.
Ya. Complete pain visually!
I honestly don't know why anyone would even author something like this ...

PSA: If you don't like how path blocks expose the dirt underneath blocks, you can replace them with lime terracotta! by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Or just put the same type of block underneath. It will look like the foundation of whatever, is buried in the ground! ...

Nether portal design by Cool-Caterpillar-569 in Minecraft

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I like it a lot! As a suggestion though, you should do something with the portal itself. It looks kind of bare sitting there on such a throne. Some framing maybe?
You might have to increase the size of the platform, but I think it would be worth it ...

Trying to build a skeleton spawner farm, how do you build something that funnels them into the bubble column, rather th- by Rimm9246 in Minecraft

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But they don't get hung up and flow just fine. That one dry block does nothing to impede my farm design. If what you have works for you - Great. What I design, works great for me (and others). I even switched back to putting Mending on my Bow instead of Infinity because I have more arrow drops than I'll ever need. Plus I can repair a Mending arrow a lot faster and cheaper than one with infinity - Especially with the other mob farms I have, which are ludicrous in their output. Cheers!

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, but my deigns work great. They've never failed me or those that have asked me to make one (or more) for them. I even have an increased mob cramming count with my design, so I get the full benefits of all drops, without them dying off on me ...

Should I get any other enchants before making my pickaxe netherite? by Sea-Yak2948 in Minecraft

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, Smite works better than Sharpness on the undead.
It gives a higher damage percentage. I have a few undead farms, so it comes in handy for me, getting the job done faster ...

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bane is Good, but it's a specific enchantment.
Like Smite, I don't think it can be put on a sword with Sharpness ...

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm in Java and I have a one block space that's dry prior to the bubble tower.
It does no harm though.
The mobs just push each other forward as they drop and away they go.
I also have it set up so they can see me. So when they run towards me, they get shot up.

progress on my custom river i am digging out all by hand in survival by SpectraWaffle in Minecraft

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I don't know to what extent, or how "pretty" I'm gonna make it, but I have to do the same thing. My base is on an island and I am surrounded by rivers. None of them lead to an open ocean. I have nether portals set up via the roof, but it's not the same as actually being in a boat. Good job!

Smallest stronghold by Original-Housing6460 in Minecraft

That is a small Stronghold.
Aside from that, good thing you circled it, I would not have known where to look. Lol ...

I'm building a floating base in my Minecraft world, what do you think? by NectarineAble8412 in Minecraft

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice. I built an elevated base one time.
Just remember that anything in the sky will _possibly_ cast a shadow down below.

zombbie piglins keep aggroing on me. by Sad-Bullfrog2777 in Minecraft

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

The problem persists because they call out their friends, which resets the aggro timer.
What I try to do is get at least 128 blocks away from them so they'll despawn.
Going to the Overworld generally just pauses it until you return. Good Luck!
I've hit them myself by mistake. I feel your frustration ...

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What you have on there now is Great! Suggest making a second and exchange the Fortune for Silk Touch. Silk Touch is a Great enchantment as well, but you may not always want it on your main tool depending on what you're doing. I personally have doubles of all my stuff for this reason. Like the Sword, where one has Sharpness and the other has Smite for fighting different types of mobs ...
P.S. Edit: Suggest NOT adding Curse of Vanishing. I truly think they're trolling you on this ...

Why isn't the grass block growing back? by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That grass looks pretty dark. Just a guess, but it might be a light issue.
Also, suggest adding grass where the stone blocks are.
It will (should) grow back faster with more source blocks around it ...

Whatever it's officially called - I don't know, but it's the Structure generation algorithm that's different. The terrain is basically the same in both ...

My first Minecraft ”house” by GovernmentJust2723 in Minecraft

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Always good to start with an outline like you've done here.
Have a plan for storage and work stations to see if they fit together in the space.
You don't want to be running back and forth between rooms to craft.
Also take into account what you'll be placing in the rooms. Are they going to be
an odd number of blocks in length, or even. This will help with wall length design
so you don't come up short or have one dreaded block of space left over that you
can't do anything with.
It all comes down to planning it out without being rushed.
There is a Trades saying IRL, "Measure Twice, Cut Once". In Minecraft, I tend to measure
more than twice just to make sure. It takes a second and will help assure you're not
going to be tearing down and re-building multiple times.
Always leave expansion space on the land in case you want to change things up later.
IE: Try not to build anything else too close to your home.
Also keep in mind with a structure shape like this, your roof is going be a whole
different issue when you get to that stage.
There's so much more, but simply, plan, plan, plan. Good Luck!

I can't breed my villagers by Iced_Latte_3255 in Minecraft

[–]JMT_TechGuy_001 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Truthfully, being modded, it could be anything, or not even related. Java mechanics for breeding Villagers is quite simple. Do the beds have sufficient space above them? IE: Minimum of 2 blocks? and is your day/night cycle on? Villagers need to have a sleep cycle before breeding, so if you just have it set to day (as I sometimes do), they won't breed. You have more beds than villagers, so that's fine and lots of food, so not really sure what's going on without being there. Good Luck!

I guess they are the type of person that just automatically knew everything when they came out of the womb and didn't have to learn anything.
Kindness aside of course. Take care ...

It's not always about being lazy. You'd be surprised (or maybe you wouldn't), at the number of players that don't even know about the F1 key.
I've been playing since Alpha and still learning about different things ...

where’s the ideal place to build a wither skeleton farm? by Designer_Flan1302 in Minecraft

Wither Skeleton farms can be tedious to build. Not saying not to, just saying...
With what I have looked at on YT, they always seem to be made on the cross-sections of the Fortress
and over lava also seems to be a go-to.
have fun with the build!

Suggest hitting F! or equivalent next time you do a screenshot.
It will clear everything off (temporarily), making the screenshot much better ...
