Adding to what Stoop said, I recommend not depending on the in-development features of the pack while building in general, since things that look good with it may not look good without it. Take the pack off when doing building, put it on while exploring. All the terrainset-based overlay CTMs...

Hi Sapp, Great work, this is probably your best house so far! :) With a few tweaks, I think it could be an acceptable house in Duskendale. If you can keep up the improving quality for two (tentatively) more complex town styles, I think I'd be ready to promote you to builder. Even so, please...

Looks much better to me now :) Post-approved!

Approved! I think you can get started with plotting now. I'd probably start with the central hamlet and laying out rough shapes for the fields. Please let me know progress periodically so we can make adjustments as things start to come together.

Hi Sapp, Very nice work, much better this time. This is the level of improvement I want to see :) If you keep improving consistently like this for a couple more town houses, I'd say we're nearing the end. One thing I want you to pay particular attention to in your next few houses: the yard...

Hi sapp, I've already talked with you in-game about this house a bit, so I think you know what I'm gonna say. Overall, you're getting the general layout, palettes, and interiors down for each of the challenge builds I give, but you're missing a lot of the important details. The style is a bit...

Hey sapp, Great work on this, you're coming along! :) The interiors and exteriors seem mostly up to par this time, I don't have as much feedback to give other than picky stuff. The yard and surrounding details still need a bit of work, though. Make sure not to neglect those, it's important for...

Sorry, haven't forgotten about this, just really busy with research fellowship deadlines. Will reply by tomorrow night.

For 3-5, I recommend using a lower frequency, maybe higher octaves perlin for the sandy grass and pebbles. It looks too splotchy currently.

Welcome! Glad to see your interest in the server and willingness to share your knowledge with us :) I'd add that we also have need of (if you ever have time, of course) specialized guides on the forums for terraforming various features, such as this comprehensive thread on terraforming coasts...

Hi leopard, just wanted to check in, since I haven't heard from you in a little bit. How's it going? It looks like you're probation month is passed, so next time I get a chance I'd like to go through any recent houses and bump you up if everything seems good.

Okay, I took a look! Very beautiful terraforming work in the project Ant, I love following all the little goat paths, finding the children of the forest ruins, exploring the mines and caves, etc. My main feedback is a bit general. The settlements of Parren have a lot of small houses and...

The biome used at Ashwood is Extreme Hills; you should be able to spawn in an Extreme Hills biome by setting the seed for the world. See if any of these work: https://www.digminecraft.com/seeds/pc_mac/biome_extreme_hills.php

Hey sapp, Thanks for your patience. Busy time for me right now. Nice work on the house, the yard is definitely an improvement this time. Though you're overall picking up on most of the stylistic elements now, there's still a number of minor issues with execution I'm noticing. When studying a...

Hey Contra, Overall I think your plans and everything look good. The only thing is there needs to be a commons and meadow area where the farmsteads can take their animals to graze. Two options for this: to the west of the central hamlet area (replacing the leftmost fields in the map), or that...

I've actually used small versions of these ceramic tile furnaces in the Wickenden castle, though in red rather than green: I was bored, so I tried re-creating the first image that you linked: Probably not suitable to use in-game, but maybe a smaller version with the green marble could...

No, sorry, I still need to give it a look. Will try to do that this weekend.

It is, if you imagine an update/redo/etc. as a highly centralized process where we throw all/most of our resources towards it for a year or two, then let it sit idle for a few years, then repeat, etc. Arguably, most of the costs of this process, and the reasons it takes so long, come from the...

Hey ChrisHiss, Very nicely done! :) As before, love the effort you put into making this maximally immersive. The only major feedback I have here is that the close-studded timber block doesn't really look great here; it makes the pattern look too messy, and also isn't how close-studded timber...

Hey, sorry again about the delay! Overall this seems like steady progress - I like the backstory you created for the house, it's great to put that sort of thought into your work and helps with immersion. Here's some of the feedback I have this time: - The jungle wood and birch wood in the...
