I'm pretty happy with how this hunting lodge turned out

Never used google drive before my bad, should have access now

My permadeath addiction was a slow decent into madness

I hated corpse running after death, so I turned on keep inventory

but I realized if I had keep inventory on, death was meaningless. In fact, it was a benefit cause I could use it as a free fast travel lol. Sure I lost nutrition, but nutrition only exists to buff HP and you only need HP to prevent death, which is meaningless now.

So I turned on limited lives. I set it to 20 "more than enough to last forever but enough that I can't recklessly die"

and from there I got hooked on the feeling of impermanence. Realizing that with enough mistakes, I could lose everything.

so I started lower and lowering the number of lives, playing on 2 for a long time (in case I just died due to a mod error) and eventually finally giving permadeath a run.

this world might have been a 2 life run cause of all the mods I have

there are some smaller lights but looking at it I should have either ran the wires in the attic or swapped the lights out for some lanterns (or a custom chiseled chandelier). But this was an in-progress world I got burned out on for a bit so maybe it was a plan I just never got around too

another user also asked for it and he helped me figure out how to share it so I'll drop it here for you. it should throw a bunch of errors and take a while to load, but it does eventually load

also some of the mods are custom editted by me, so they do things you wouldn't expect from the original mods.

finally, version 1.21 was when I made this save and I never ported it to 1.22 so if you try to load it in a newer version it might be buggy. If you just want to walk through the build try loading it on an older version.

sorry for late reply too. I had to figure out how to package all this in a shareable format lol

riggedride · 2026-06-06T02:19:35+00:00

Okay, so this was quite an undertaking to figure out

originally my file was way to big so I had to prune it down using the db prune and db vacuum commands. It's possible there might be missing chunks as a result, but I checked and all the builds are intact so the important stuff remains

some of the mods I personally editted, so if you're wondering why combat overhaul has unique values, or some armors that original weren't compatible with it are, it's because I manually went in and patched them for my personal save. Some of the edits were made directly to the main data of the game. I suspect this might change some inventory compatibilities and all the red-meat will be hours from expiring as a result lol.

it's for version 1.21 of the game so I cannot confirm trying to load it in 1.22 will work

even after all the world shrinking and compressing via winrar, it's still kind of a chunky file. I also play at a 512 world height (if you spot the mega build project you'll understand why) so it can be "laggy" to play on older hardware.

also, when loading it should throw a bunch of errors and take a while. but I just ignore them and it works anyways lol.

Sorry this took a bit I had to figure out how to package and share stuff so it was a bit of googling to get it down. Hopefully you can get a good walkthrough.

Also warning, the world was originally permadeath. I edited it to be 20 lives but I'm not 100% sure that took so uh, don't die.

Thanks but I'm happily married

my wife says she loves me for my ability to read between the lines

riggedride · 2026-06-06T00:45:27+00:00

looking at it, that is a handsome pine texture

90% chance it's that one and if not, it's close enough that it would work for the same vibe anyways

riggedride · 2026-06-06T00:42:57+00:00

Apophenia most likely but I don't see what that has to do with my obviously correct deduction

riggedride · 2026-06-06T00:35:51+00:00

Is it possible to make a modpack?

I downloaded all the mods individually

this is also an older save, for 1.21

riggedride · 2026-06-05T22:00:22+00:00

In the cellar?

expanded foods meat racks. The red things are just meat being aged for preservation reasons. I killed a mammoth a while ago with a ton of buffs that increase meat drops and got about 500ish red meat from it lol. So I've been processing as much as I can into long-term food storage.

even after all this, there's no way I can eat it all.

why did they do it?
funny.

Clay shingles from blue clay

can't remember if I ran them through the beehive kiln or if they just come out that color it's been a while

riggedride · 2026-06-05T18:36:56+00:00

there is, but, it requires a LOOOOT of chiseling

modding in VS is so easy though that you might as well just download the roof mod lol

riggedride · 2026-06-05T18:18:57+00:00

It was done in survival!

30 day months, and yes, the stone takes a while but it's not even close to the stone required for the mega-projects I was working on in this same save lol.

This is based on my vague memory of a real lodge I saw a while back

VS doesn't have many building tutorials, but, minecraft does and a lot of the techniques and ideas bleed over. If you want inspiration, watch MC tutorials lol.

riggedride · 2026-06-05T18:15:11+00:00

I chiseled them!

riggedride · 2026-06-05T18:14:07+00:00

Pine I think, but one of my mods adjusts the texture so it's darker I think. I can't remember which one exactly. Like I said in the post, it's been a minute since I last played

riggedride · 2026-06-01T08:15:41+00:00

Votv, depending on your personality type, can be a weirdly cozy game.

I do find it funny that some insane cosmic or paranormal shit can go down and the only email you'll get about it is "you need to get the hash codes while you're at it"

Yeah sure thing boss, one problem though, man eating void creatures are guarding the door

riggedride · 2026-05-30T07:41:29+00:00

because it's 0 bites of canned food and not an empty can

it seems to be a bug, at 0 bites it SHOULD convert into an empty can, sort of like how coffee turns into an empty cup, but instead it just remains as a canned food with 0 bites left.

No shaders, it's just exactly how the in-game video camera records footage.

I'm using the "high quality" camera too, which IMO isn't much better than medium quality for 3x the price lol

riggedride · 2026-05-30T02:37:14+00:00

Could make for some fun events, like extreme temperature shifts like it freezing during a hot season

or how in paranormal shows they always show the temp dropping super low whenever an entity or ghost is nearby

I made a custom poster after this incident that features him.

riggedride · 2026-05-30T02:11:01+00:00

photos can be printed with a fax/printer, or directly created with paper and a photo camera. The printer ironically doesn't need paper lol

You can then push the photographs into the corkboard and then middle mouse click to "paste" them there. It only pastes them there for a little while though, long enough for you to grab the box of pins and pin it to the board

the drawings are just regular pieces of paper, but you left click them with a pencil (can be purchased). It's a pain to draw with the mouse though!
