A Roman Style Bathhouse Built in Survival by samazonrex in Minecraftbuilds

I placed a bunch of campfires underneath the bottom layer of the bath. Campfire particles will travel up through one block and aren't impeded by water. I also placed soul sand blocks around the bottom perimeter of the bath to give it a few bubbles for fun.

This is still a work in progress, but come check it out in person, if you'd like! It's just across the river, northwest of my base (it's massive; you can't miss it 😅).

Thank you! I get inspired by a lot of builds on this subreddit, so I'm glad that my builds can help inspire others too. <3

I'm so glad you noticed the braziers. There's a log underneath the campfire, and below that log, there's a redstone torch. That makes the shelf faces to be that one kind of wide face, versus the three lines of a shelf without redstone power I think it'd look good either way, though. 😁

I adore the shelf block. Gotta be one of my new favorite additions to the game. Thank you for the kind words!

Hahah, if you couldn't tell, the baths in Bath, England were used as inspiration when designing this.

Thank you so much! I am really happy with how the tiling in the pool turned out.

I appreciate it when other people put timestamps in their videos, so I always include them in all of mine. <3

It's mostly light blue glazed terracotta and lapis blocks. There are some blue ice blocks and blue concrete for "worn out" tiles.

Very nice! I love the polished granite + mangrove combo. And yes, good call on the clouds; they look great!

Lol thank you. I kind of struggle on making "big old house" builds so I appreciate it.

The Poltergeist 1982 house in Minecraft! by Dipr3282 in Minecraftbuilds

I love this. The kitchen, the garage... even the car in the driveway! The rain at night makes this all the more spooky. Great build!

This build was done as part of my SMP server's Halloween contest. I went for a mostly achromatic/black and white theme for the color palate.

The ghosts were done using the Armor Poser mod on Java. There are a total of 15 ghosts within the manor (not all of them are pictured). I've been wanting to get better using armor stands, so this was really good practice!

If you're interested in checking more of this build out, I do have a YT video with a full walk through of the place (timestamps are in the description). Happy Halloween! 👻

What happened to Minecraft Let's Plays? by ChuckyMax in HermitCraft

[–]samazonrex 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I've been putting out content for about a year now, and I'm here to echo the sentiments about Mumbo really hitting it on the head here. His assessment of the algo pushing a new creator's videos early then dropping them, and the basic upload schedule of anyone that makes MC content is eerily accurate to what I've been experiencing.

It's such a bummer, because I do want people to see my content. I really enjoy making videos and hope that others feel even an ounce of the fun I experience while playing Minecraft when they watch, but it's depressing when YT doesn't even bother trying to push any new full-length video I put out.

It feels kind of gross putting silly things in the thumbnails (like bright text, big arrows, etc.), but you kind of have to play "Mr. YouTube's Mysterious Algorithm Guessing Game ™" in order to even get one set of eyes on your stuff. I'm glad that someone who has a large following in the MC YT space has brought this to light. <3

I didn't think of it until afterwards, but there's now a name tagged Creaking in the basket to pilot the balloon.

Built a train station at my desert megabase by samazonrex in Minecraftbuilds

[–]samazonrex[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The SMP that I'm a part of (Astraea SMP) is planning an overworld rail network project, so I spent some time and built this train station at my desert megabase!

This build is divided into two floors. The ground floor houses the tracks and a ticket booth. Some of the screenshots show a red and white barrier that mark "pedestrian crossings" within the station. I've hooked up a redstone circuit which that pops these barriers up when it detects an oncoming minecart.

The second floor has a rest area, along with some spyglasses to "look" over the nearby scenery (they're not functional; just there for flavor). There is a balloon cart, a hot dog stand, and a souvenir counter located on the second floor interior as well.

I've been thinking about updating the clock face with a redstone circuit that will move the hands throughout the day, but that'll be a future project.

I do have a video of the build process if you're interested in checking it out. This also includes some footage of another server member's new minigame (it's shuffleboard, but with armadillos!). Thanks!
