Etho's Modded Minecraft S2 #2: Create Japanese Home

[@halex9075]

This is honestly the most hyped I have been for a new minecraft series in years, anyone else feel the same? Thank you Etho!

[@balance2599]

I really love the direction the series is going rn, Etho also seems to be having a lot of fun

[@josephcorsi8883]

Agreed! I have been refreshing youtube every couple hours hoping a new one has come out

[@JimHaderon]

Yeah, as much as I love Minecraft, I haven't felt this kind of excitement for a series since ~2014. These mods all seem so fleshed out and work together well, very vanilla but still giving a lot more variety and making incredible ambience. I love that there's no minimap, it's nice not getting distracted by it. Etho really thought it through and you can tell.

Heyo! o/ a developer from darker depths here! i love the usage that you gave to the limestone block, it's absolutely one of my favorites 😁, a cool functionality about the glowshroom cap is that (other than giving haste) it provides a dynamic light so it illuminates around you, alas for some reason it appears to not be working with the shaders..

The reverb in the caves is such a nice addition. They should have that in vanilla, really adds to the atmosphere.

[@alexjustalexyt1144]

In the very early days of Minecraft they tried that but was too hard to implement because they would always need to calculate where blocks are and how it affects sound and how the sound bounces off of it and they also had trouble of what was considered as a cave.

[@anastasiaolson3791]

@@DaCreepyCreeper You should go back and see some of his old builds if you haven’t- a lot of cobblestone/sandstone cubes. Don’t get me wrong, love the builds for the nostalgia factor but his newer builds are on a whole different level :)

[@TNTspaz]

@@DaCreepyCreeper It seems like it even as an older viewer but trust me in the grand scheme of thing this is a fairly recent development. I'd say he didn't really start fully committing to improving his builds until 2019 and then it really starts to show in the Hermitcraft season 7 videos, which carried over to the let's play and everything else. He was an ok builder before that but kind of in that awkward period that everyone goes through until they full commit or give up For the most part he basically was always building around redstone. So, the buildings made themselves. He's always been a pretty decent interior designer, due to always kind of relying on caves and other things for his builds. Which is the whole idea of the mancave. Many older builds that were good were either more based on his experience with pixel art stuff or repeatable patterns like snowflakes and other designs he would use for farms

[@xAwesomeGameplay]

I love the way he builds because it looks so good, but anyone could do it. Not like someone like Bdubs where you need to be an artist to even imitate some of his stuff.

[@greennova8696]

So Etho, I've been lurking on your video's sense S1 of your single player, and I just wanted to say thank you for providing so much fun and inspiration for me over the years. your the person that got me into Redstone at a young age and probably ended up helping me down the path I am now. I'm studying AMO physics at the moment. Ill remember all of the fun times I've experienced along side you for years to come, and I'm excited for all the new ones ahead, just wanted to say hi and let you know you've made an impact on someone's life. -From, a long time fan

[@erstereihe5272]

That very cool, be pround Etho :)

[@exoplanetarydev]

Hey, developer of the mushroom mod here! Really stoked to see you using the mod in your house - it's definitely one of the best builds I've seen with the red mushroom wood. With regards to the auto-farming with Create, I'm pretty sure Create doesn't chop the red mushroom blocks since it doesn't consider them to be leaves. It's something I might add in the future, but it's a bit janky to implement. I suppose you could probably set something up with drills though if you want to automatically chop the full mushroom down.

[@EthosLab]

I think it is probably fine as is. It adds more challenge to the game if trees and mushrooms can't be harvested in exactly the same way. Thanks, it's a cool mod.

To speed up the gears you need to connect gears to gears alternating big and small. But don’t over do it. Stress is a big part of create. The best early create power is the create water wheel 2 of them can take up to 512 total kenetic stress. Which is enough to power the crushing wheels

FACTS

[@Tasorius]

I'm also excited about Building with Bdouble0 returning.

[@jadekaiser7840]

Just a bit of advice when doing stuff with Create: the easiest earlygame source of power for your stuff is actually a water wheel, which is not only much cheaper but also produces a lot more power at higher speeds than using an encased fan for it, and is very easy to set up. Using an encased fan for power is pretty much just a novelty that was added because people asked for it, since it's one of the most expensive methods to make and produces almost nothing. There's a few isolated cases where it's useful for space reasons, but that's about it. Encased fans have more than enough actually good uses that it's not really a problem. Of course, if you want to make a giant encased fan power plant for your things just because you can, that's entirely valid. It's just going to be really, *really* expensive. :P

@Double Tatertot it's great because you can fully edit the shader. Even down to the light level at specific time of day and even background light at night. My favourite thing is boosting cave lighting so I can actually see or changing the galaxy image for something else. Asianhalfsquat has a great video on the shader

I was really happy to see this series return and thoroughly enjoyed episode 1! I'm happy Etho seems to be enjoying himself enough to put out episode 2 this quick! :D Edit: I'm also enjoying the minimap/waypoint mods not being included a LOT - I feel like it's really good for immersion and makes everything feel a lot less game-y :)

Long time fan from the ancient days here, and this new series is by far my favourite. The moment he pointed out there wasn’t any extra GUI like the Minimap, that was the selling point for me. I’m a firm believer of no gui = better immersion. Thank you Etho, please keep this adventure going~

This was so peaceful to watch, I really enjoyed it, Etho! Seeing you roam and explore the beautiful world and listening to your voice paired with birdsong, it's such a pleasurable experience :> The build is simply gorgeous! I love how organic and natural it is, its colours are lovely and complement those of its surroundings! I know a little bit about Japanese architecture and I think you did a good job of keeping the theme with the Japanese elements, while also having your unique style show; overall it's such a beautiful build! The organic shape, leaves, and earthy wood colours have a strong element of nature, and as you said, the blue roof does look great with the cherry blossoms in the background! I love the lanterns, they quite literally let the shaders shine, and those shaders beautify your build even further by drawing out its colours, and having soft touches of shadow with bright areas of light! Something else I love about the colour palette of your base is the contrast; the deep blue of the roof and warm orange of the details, the white and dark brown in the paper walls, as well as the tones of the varying structure blocks; the pale walls against the dark roof, the different saturations, how it's darker toward the bottom of the build and gets brighter as it goes up, but is balanced by the deep colour of the roof; and how it isn't too strong in contrast or saturation keeps it soft and pleasant to look at! The structure itself is magnificent; I love the depth you added with the paper walls, fences, hanging lanterns, pathways, height, structure support, slabs, stairs, and such! Yet again, it's kind of hard for me to figure out where you did the terraforming, haha, you did such a good job! :) Fun fact: Tatami mats are used in the floors of traditional Japanese homes, and shoes and slippers aren't worn while standing on them. Another reason to take off your shoes before entering your home! ^-^ I have a question if you don't mind answering, though you totally don't have to; How did you learn colour theory? Your colour palettes are truly beautiful, and I'd love to learn more about it so I can appreciate them even more. But thank you so much for this episode!

[@Kurt_Winner]

You’re my favorite Minecraft KZbinr. The only og one I still watch. You’ve adapted very well keep up the great work! I always get my snacks to watch your vids

Etho, for more rotational power try using a water wheel or windmill, those are the 2 best early game sources of create power. In the late game the furnace generator is your friend (there is a trick where if you pull the item you are smelting in and out of the furnace with a chute and a fan you will never use up the item meaning all you need is furnace fuel. Automating charcoal works for this). To make things spin faster either use a rotational speed controller or chain big and small cogs together. Additionally, I would recommend looking into setting up a tree farm with a minecart contraption or a gantry carriage (this option is likely better for early game when iron is tight). These are easier to set up on scale compared to mechanical pistons.

I honestly don’t mind watching you collect ores 🤷🏽‍♀️ I don’t think it’s a waste of time. I enjoy watching cave exploring and material collecting and you could even do a Q&A during that time or talk about future builds you have in mind etc. Thank you for this new series! ❤️

Never knew I'd be into modded Minecraft like that, but your videos are just so enjoyable and comfy, I love every second of them

[@isometricspace4348]

I just wanted to say how much I love the editing style on these videos. The occasional quick cuts and sped up sections mean there’s no points in the video that feel drawn out or dull, while also not making it seem like stuff has been cut out. Really great to see :D

That backpack is sweet...I so wish it were in vanilla. Also, I hear a lot of players talk about getting lost in caves...if you make a habit of placing all torches going into a cave or mine to the left then as you head back to the exit all torches will be to the right...and you'll know it's alright to get out that way.

[@cartermiller920]

I absolutely love the new base. So cool looking, excited to see where it goes

[@crowsoup9953]

AHH, the house is looking so beautiful! I'm so hyped for all this - and the colour palette is so beautiful.

[@pudgy_buns]

I remember at some point Etho you spoke about actively trying to avoid a phrase you were saying really often, and like a week later you started saying "Uh huh" instead of whatever it was. I thought it was really funny that you switched one phrase out for another and you may not have known it. I didn't mind either, but now that you've brought my attention to it I just repeat "Uh huh" every time you say "Uh huh" now and it makes me smile.

This series is amazing so far! Etho playing create is like a dream come true

[@foofooss]

Etho is heading into the new year strong with this series!!

[@Neon-ws8er]

I love how the first power source you use for create is the most obscure, unused feature in the entire mod. It really shows how much you read into things.

[@NerdyStarProductions]

Wow what a crazy cool base. Easily one of his best builds imo

[@ahangoel]

To be honest my favorite part of season 1 was the rail roads and the trains, but I am loving the new season so far.

[@caseys1606]

TBH the Custom npcs were pretty dope

[@suetyhercules7717]

Do I have some amazing news for you. Trains are a part of create and they're awesome

[@williamdardenne3093]

Trains and immersive engineering will just just make it awesome

[@pism0549]

Etho has grown so much as a builder. That house looks fantastic! I love modded Minecraft and I love Etho so I'm very excited for this series!

[@Shadow-us4oq]

Yesss, I wasn't expecting another so soon!

[@Nooticus]

SAME!

[@drewbuckley8139]

I love this base, it feels like Etho's Von Sway has been leading up to this

[@RoyalGraham]

As I get older, the comfort that Etho’s videos bring me are as they were when I was younger. Thank you for your hard work and friendly spirit. I wish you continuous well being for you and the people close to you.

[@saccers]

So pumped for this series. I've been watching a long time and I really think the shaders give it a fresh new feel but with the same ole' etho. Keep it up!

[@emeryzimet2495]

I really like seeing the sped-up full walk you take when you go exploring, when you cut that in other series I always wonder about where you go and how long it takes and what you see

[@nyanezt9636]

i really love the feeling the house gives off - i especially liked the scene when you stood more in the shade of trees, that deck looks fits so good! thank you for the video!

[@DaJodad]

I think this series is one of the best Christmas gifts I've gotten this year!

[@Pengux1]

I love how the house is looking so far! I reckon adding a koi/fish pond at the front will look really nice as well when you get to landscaping.

[@justicebinder6544]

As someone who’s an avid gardener and interested in botany and stuff I love Minecraft mods that add plant life like this. So fun.

[@Madison-zt4oo]

The thumbnail looks SO pretty I'm so excited!
