You neglected to mention the important detail that you don't need to use sail blocks for windmills- Regular wool works too, if you have a surplus of wool and want to save on andesite alloy.

[@N0FoxGiven]

This is something new with the previous update (steam and trains) you could not cover gears before that. And I love the new gear box set up. It looks so cool. Like an actual engine. Still prefer Rot. Speed Controllers just due to size and shape. But the gear box in a decorative case (or 2 side by side) is one of my favorite central pieces or under floor showings. The gears getting faster as you step over them and run into the main power line.

[@blast.507]

@@N0FoxGivenWell, rot controllers are more later game and gearshifting is for early, so it's better to gearshift with casings before you get the rot controller

[@emeryduhgamer]

For some reason I find Dejojo’s create tutorials relaxing, I don’t know why and I already know all this stuff it’s just fun to learn about them

[@tadkins3204]

Worthy note about bulk smelting. (Unless I'm wrong since I haven't gotten to play the newest version of Create in survival that much yet.) It is the only one of the bulk operations that will destroy the resulting items if they aren't picked up after they are smelted due to bulk smelting destroying any items that don't have anything to smelt into. Related fun fact: Smelting cobblestone into stone is the exception since it can be further smelted into smooth stone, which while not great at least returns something, assuming you don't wait longer, allowing the smooth stone to be destroyed since that can be burned.

[@ravivandersalm4586]

[@BlueJayBaby]

I love this! I never knew how to even generate power at all in create so in my builds I just used the creative motor. The only thing I figured out how to automate was elevators and making a mechanical arm endlessly transport items on a belt that just loops around lol

[@moviebad109]

For anyone struggling to get slime in early create saves, I would strongly recommend you look up the slime ball recipes in JEI before doing a slime chunk farm or finding a swamp. With Lime dye (green dye + white dye), and Dough (milled wheat flour and water in a mixer) you can make your own slime balls. This recipe absolutely saved my sanity after I tried for HOURS to get slimes to spawn in a slime chunk I hollowed out. This is a vanilla create recipe, so no additional create mods necessary. Green dye is as easy as finding a desert or any biome that produces Ferns and tossing them in the millstone.

[@aggrocd1985]

Dough is not a vanilla recipe...

[@moviebad109]

@@aggrocd1985 It's a create recipe though, which is what the video is about. Grind down wheat into flour, add the flour and a bucket of water to basin below a mixer, and you get dough, which can then be dyed to make slime. Definitely not vanilla, I agree, but the whole mod is not vanilla. People use "vanilla create" to refer to JUST the Create Mod with no submods (of which there are hundreds)

[@daneleventsixti]

Create mod by itself really is a mod that you almost never need a wiki (than JEI mod to help with recipes) and would definitely help playing with one of the modpack as it has built-in quest system to help with progression. Everything is wonderfully explained and the easy to put down then rip off with a wrench if one wants to mess around with contraptions to learn. The internet is where we teach some tricks to optimize or improve but the basic is so simple someone can play and learn as they go. I picked up Create a week ago and ever since I can just learn things without needing to go on wiki or youtube at all.

[@blackhawkcz1895]

Great video! i thought almost 30 mins is gonna be a long waist of time but you made every second count! thank you for the education, im excited for create even more now. i am about to start a modpack that makes the create progress a little bit slower so wish me luck guys!

Excellent video. I didn't know about right-clicking in the JEI menu for the recipes! VERY handy

[@moridin0014]

Unsure if its a new version of this, but you can also create half large and small cogwheels. You use an andesite alloy to make the wheel, instead of the shaft. This will make it so that the shaft is only on one side of the wheel, negating the need to make an andesite casing

[@igorarmellini1041]

For someone who is brand new to this mod and is looking in tutorials before trying it out. one of the important things that is missing from the beginning is how to make the andesite alloy. I googled it and know now that it's made with andesite and zinc. And the zinc ore is part of the create mod world generation (I think after a quick search but I could be mistaken) I believe it would be best if this is explained or at least mentioned at the start.

[@cleonumber1]

as far as i am aware you can use iron nuggets too

Use iron nuggets instead of zinc becouse zinc is used for brass

[@Z0R0T3S3T]

In older versions, (something that I had to find out on my own, through JEI actually) You have to craft andesite casing with two rows (one on top, one on the bottom) of planks, a stripped log or regular log in the middle, and two andesite casings at the side. I struggled with this for a minute, since I was running a 1.16.5 server lol
