Lighting The Way..

In the underground home in ye old world#1, the waterfall corridor is progressing slowly, but surely. I've had to make some changes though on the North corridor.

(Water is default because of new patch):




In the last picture, on the right side, I've actually had to take the wall back a couple of blocks to keep the aesthetic. It's coming along, slowly. I've updated the painterly pack as you can see, but cobblestone (last picture in the ceiling) is now a parkor style, but I still don't like it, it looks to busy. Stone-brick on the other hand looks quite nice now:

Comparison: Stone-brick Vs Cobblestone.

So I may change any cobblestone to stone-brick instead as it looks much nicer. This column is just for an example though, and won't be staying put.


New Patch
There's also been the new patch that I mentioned with greater high added and Redstone lams among other things. You don't have to use Redstone for ceiling lamps though as you can place buttons and switches on the sides of the lamps and they will light up, naturally.


Simple cube house created in creative.

The added height is much welcome, not only for building higher, but to stop stumpy trees because of the previous restriction. In my World#2 for example, I have a mountain next to my home embedded in a mountain, and the trees at the very top  have always cut-off because of the previous height restriction, not growing to their full potential. I am currently chopping them all down and replanting!

That's about all I have, I just wanted to make a post as they have been lacking as you may have noticed. I haven't had the enthusiasm lately, and get much more out of multiplayer and this great server I'm on. So I've been mostly doing that. It has led however to having to make decisions about what I want to keep doing in single player and which worlds I'll continue to work on and which ones will be on hold.

World#1 - Posts will be sporadic, but I will continue to redevelop my underground home.
World#2 - Very sporadic posts. Will continue to redecorate the Art Gallery but it will be an occasional thing.
World#3 (Beta home) - Redevelopment is on permanent hold.
StrongHolm - Stronghold redevelopment is on permanent hold.
Allbases World - As soon as the roof is done, that's it, I'm done with it. Stick a fork in it, it's done!
Mountain Home In a Mountain (1.9.5) - Will continue to work on it.
World#1 v 1.1+ Will continue to work on it as I've really enjoyed doing this new version of an old house on an old world.
Creative Ravine mall/Homes - Very occasional. Posts, sporadic.


The Future - I do want to create a new world, one of the things I want to do for the longest time is create homes in the tree-tops of a jungle biome. proper Ewok style. It's something different , it's not a normal home or yet another home embedded in a mountain, and after seeing jungle biomes when introduced, makes me wanna do it because it's different.

Until next time..
