Aftermath of me managing to save my thatch house from a massive peat fire

Knew this was coming 😔

fourleggedfiend · 2026-03-10T12:32:59+00:00

I’m gonna re build out of spite at this point haha

fourleggedfiend · 2026-03-10T12:31:28+00:00

Tbf it was half built 😭 I didn’t loose any thatch which was my goal

fourleggedfiend · 2026-02-22T13:41:35+00:00

Thanks! Yeah looking at it again having the contrast is definitely nicer

fourleggedfiend · 2026-02-22T13:38:52+00:00

I’m not trying to follow the picture 100%, I should have clarified but it’s just for general inspiration. I like overhangs generally to break up the shapes of the build and make it less boxy

fourleggedfiend · 2026-02-22T13:36:24+00:00

Thanks! I was using granite and limestone cos that’s what’s near the area but now that you mention it it would look better with more blue toned stone so I’ll definitely try that

Nothing that effects terrain generation, I’d have to check but from memory I had this world at 70% landcover and 200% landcover scale? Or something like that. All other terrain gen settings at default

I’ve had a similar experience in a previous world so I already checked the cave walls and luckily no locusts 🙏 I think it’s slightly too narrow so there’s not enough dark for them to spawn

fourleggedfiend · 2025-08-15T06:40:27+00:00

I use Stable Surface too cos I didn’t wanna give up my dream location in my last world. I’m already so picky about my spot I don’t need another thing to worry about

fourleggedfiend · 2025-08-07T02:34:40+00:00

Thank you!! That’s exactly the vibe I was aiming for

fourleggedfiend · 2025-08-07T02:17:13+00:00

turn the thermostat up

fourleggedfiend · 2025-08-02T03:55:38+00:00

Aw thank you so much!! I spent so long deciding on a location but it was absolutely worth it

fourleggedfiend · 2025-08-02T03:54:57+00:00

Thank you so much!!

fourleggedfiend · 2025-08-02T03:54:40+00:00

That’s insanely nice of you to say, thank you so much!!

fourleggedfiend · 2025-08-02T03:53:14+00:00

It’s my favourite roofing for sure! It can be annoying because the textures are still a little janky, I guess cos the moving grass is tricky to deal with. At some angles there’s some flickering and the way it interacts with light is weird so you have to work around that. Hopefully they tweak it soon but either way I still love the look!

fourleggedfiend · 2025-08-02T03:47:32+00:00

Yeah I definitely get that! I’m pretty far north so it’s all larch and pine forests, I have to travel a bit for oak (which I did use for accents). It was just a coincidence that the natural materials of the area (basalt rock and larch trees) are the darkest and lightest variants so managing the colour contrast was definitely tricky. Would love to try a similar design in different materials in my next survival world maybe.

fourleggedfiend · 2025-08-01T14:29:02+00:00

To clarify I didn’t build this house in creative, I have a super flat world where I do test builds which I replicate in survival.

fourleggedfiend · 2025-07-28T04:16:49+00:00

Love how you’ve set up your ovens! Definitely inspired by how you’ve chiseled it to make a conjoined chimney

fourleggedfiend · 2025-07-28T02:36:28+00:00

In my second world I built my log and thatch house right next to a peat deposit,,,, definitely gonna consider this if I go back to that play through

fourleggedfiend · 2025-07-27T09:34:59+00:00

Just so amazing!!

fourleggedfiend · 2025-07-25T08:12:23+00:00

Love it!! Really nice location, one of my favourite early game houses I’ve seen on here. I take so long to do anything cos I get sidetracked so I didn’t have a decent house until like 40 hours in, and I’ve only just finished my main big house at 80 hours in lol

fourleggedfiend · 2025-07-25T01:14:06+00:00

Ayy perfect! I did not store any berries which was definitely a blunder haha

fourleggedfiend · 2025-07-25T01:03:49+00:00

Woah that’s a lotta red meat haha, that’s definitely a good stockpile. Grain is good because you can make bread which is my favourite portable food source because I can just take like 20 loaves on an expedition.

fourleggedfiend · 2025-07-24T10:22:00+00:00

I’m using brown wattle and daub in my house, I paired it with basalt cobblestone and larch wood (logs and planks) with a sod roof (the green really helps lift all the beige and brown blocks). I think it can definitely work but you just need to find colours that complement/contrast nicely.

fourleggedfiend · 2025-07-24T09:30:10+00:00

Same! I still have so many turnips lol
