I Transformed the WORST BIOME in Hardcore Minecraft 1.20 Survival

[@fWhip]

I hope you enjoy today's episode transforming the Mesa biome into this!! I am so happy with how it turned out.. Any ideas of things to add in?

[@snelly_19]

Red sand

[@Lexzim9098]

I'm about halfway through the video and it's great, however it may be nice to add in the Azalea or Cherry Blossom leaves to give out the green/pink particle effects! Fantastic transformation nonetheless.

I think that "Lush Delta" sounds like a good name for the biome. It looks a lot like deltas I've seen in real life, so I think it works. Also, Happy Birthday, fWhip!

[@gothfoxgirlAO3]

oooo! I like that! Stemming from that, the more lush parts could be considered Delta Oasis.

[@whyareyoulookingatthis11]

Lush lagoon

[@Jakku_13]

bruh I was gonna say that

​@@whyareyoulookingatthis11love that

[@DurrtyDru]

I was going to suggest Mesa delta. Until I seen Lush delta here. Go wit the lush!

[@thomasyun423]

You should call the biome a floodplain like how the land around the Nile is called the Nile floodplain. It sorta implies that the river floods every once and a while depositing water and nutrients in the soil allowing things to grow there

[@honeybeetmr4563]

I was thinking the biome could be called the Oasis, and the river biome specifically could be called the floodplain

[@SlyJCool]

The callbacks to Papyrus and the first building with fwhip series are really nice to see. I remember being pretty sad at first when you decided you wouldn't continue working on it, but after the past year and a half of progress on this world, that sadness is long gone. I still feel nostalgia for it sometimes, like during the roads episode when you build the ruined fort (it reminded me of Eagleview Castle in the old world) and over the last few episodes with the desert-themed builds. But this world is coming along so well, and it's really amazing to see everything done on it. I can't wait to see where it goes next!

[@fWhip]

I love playing minecraft to build entire worlds so "building with fWhip" has turned into how I play the game in general.. Loved working on that series but also really really love where I'm at now with these new worlds!

[@ThatKingNoob]

@@fWhipHey Fwhip, When are the Empires series coming back?

[@Zordlistair]

Pinging in a reply comment isn't the best way to get that answer. Season 2 just ended and they have new life and pirates smps happening right now so it will be at least till those series are over. Be patient and enjoy this content for now

[@kennakrone4613]

Me: *Gives up on my desert city because I can't make it look mediterranean enough* fWhip: I'm starting a new desert city (like the one that inspired you to build one in the first place)!

[@PixLna]

Thank you for the time you spend on your videos, thank you for the quality and quantity, thank you for these fantastic durations that are neither too long nor too short, thank you for your projects that seem crazy, but come to life as you believe in them, thank you for the energy and good humor you put into your work, thank you for these fantastic edits to each episode, thank you for this dose of dopamine you give to each new video. Thank you for your fantastic work and HAPPY late BIRTHDAY fWhip!

[@fWhip]

Glad you like them! Thanks you for the kind comment!

[@ketilbro]

Hey Fwhip, I would suggest putting the pink coral in the flower pots on top for the cactuses. I could make some variation to the design and also give a pop of color ;)

[@westbrook6179]

wish there was like a mini series of Fwhip and Bdubs. just to watch the absolute bonkers of a world they would create!

[@miscellaneouswav]

That would be so cool, I’d love to see that

[@Hai9402]

Ditto:D

[@TussockyBongo57]

And Sausage, Scar and Pearl

[@Stettafire]

I can imagine how that would go lol. Bdubs: So, this is the GRAND cathederal. It is stupendous, I say. The best and the BIGGEST without a doubt. The bestest on the server. Fhwip: *Builds a palace that's one block taller* Bdubs: So you have chosen WAR! (I adore bdubs BTW, watch them both. Just the idea of a "build war" is immensely funny to me 😂,)

[@ion0057]

@@TussockyBongo57 probably skip pearl, she'd have customized an entire biome before scar's fifth death

[@fufie_32]

Honestly as a lover of the mesa, this looks gorgeous and I'm taken aback by how beautiful you made it despite the crispy leaf colour. Truly, you're one of the best, and I can't wait to see what you do next!

[@Summer12_Studios]

Happy late birthday fWhip! Best wishes to you!👍🏼

[@caseymarie34]

this is absolutely GORGEOUS, but I feel like it's more that you replaced the biome than transformed it. I'd love to see if you could do a transformation that still included the red sand, though obviously on a MUCH smaller scale than this one 😅

[@MazzyGG]

I do wish that this biome existed in vanilla without any players doing anything, I want to live there! ❤

[@gameplaynation4280]

Honestly these custom biome creations are some of my favorite videos of yours fWhip! There’s so many people building houses in yt but much fewer are transforming entire biomes at the level you are. Lovely work :)

[@ryanmunro4438]

It would be so cool to turn the decimated desert into a Petra-like city where it looks like all the buildings were carved out of the sandstone.

[@Faerandur]

Another reason for Mojang to add Terracotta slabs, stairs and walls, huh

[@thedarkduchess7556]

Since you've started putting axolotl in the river already, I think it would be awesome if the future desert village was built around a massive temple dedicated to axolotl and you added more to the river since axolotl are native to desert enviroments! It'd be awesome! Either way though the Mesa is looking amazing, i love the lush river banks so much! Great job Fwhip!

[@Scherzo-gvo]

It’s always a good day for me when a hardcore episode is uploaded. And happy late birthday!

[@lizwalton3666]

you might want to add a little curve to the palm trees so they're hanging over the river and so that they are not all perfectly straight

[@jennapothier7310]

FWhip calling the diffeent areas "New World" and "Old World" Beware the Pilgrims, fWhip! And man, your mesa looks amazing And your persistence for these projects never fails to amaze me

[@rosalia_luma]

these custom biome transformations are always so cool to watch! as for a name, i think Badlands River Delta could be a good name for it, as the delta is where all the sediment and nutrients settle at the foot of a river into the sea. keep up the good work, but don't push yourself too hard for our sakes (or even for your own) 💚💚

[@Emperor_Offset]

I think your name suggestion is really good. You got good reasoning and it makes sense.

[@angrycarrot2861]

Great video as usual! I would love to see you eventually build in even more biomes, it is so interesting! I also like how you showed more of the grind, very satisfying to watch. I hope you will have a lot of fun with this desert project!

[@Stettafire]

I'd love to see a snowy area. Normally I'm not a big desert build person but OMG fhwip has done a beautiful job so far. The "deserts are boring" person right here may be converted! ❤

[@GaySatanicClowns]

Happy trees

[@GaySatanicClowns]

I mean the memberships, and the Bob Ross reference, but also fWhip makes very nice trees.

[@Stettafire]

I know you said in stream you were going for a more relaxed and less choppy format. I loved your videos before, don't get me wrong. But I love this. I hope it works out because I feel like I can follow the narrative and really enjoy it so much more. Plus it feels like I can see more of the time abd energy that goes into the bigger builds. For bigger builds especially I'm liking this newer style immensely. Also happy birthday ❤

[@MazzyGG]

This biome transformation makes the mesa a relaxation paradise, where can I get a passport to go on a plane ride to live there?! It’s beautiful..❤

[@matthiasshadowblood7111]

I think the biome color effecting the plants adds a nice touch even if it doesnt add the best of colors. It's like even though the river shore is lush, some of the plants don't get all of the water they need, or they aren't able to handle the heat as well as some of the other plants growing It's turns it into a lush environment that is thriving as much as it is struggling, and I love the contrast in that and the colors

[@Mageston1]

I’m used to the idea of rivers running through desert-y areas making a system of floodplains (like the Nile river), so that would be my first instinct on what to name it. Oases, I think, are normally not in river systems, so Floodplains feels more “correct” to me. I am not an expert and this is a creative video game, so being “correct” is really more dependent on what sounds best to you, though 😂

[@oojamaflip7192]

I really enjoy the almost chocolate looking leaves, they feel like they're just recovering from a drought and the river water has just rushed back in and the trees take longer go all green (possibly bc they lose more water that way)

[@Lexzim9098]

Wowee I guess this is the new "meTa" of transforming the "Mesa" biome, which on the **fWhip** side looks absolutely amazing and lively to what it originally looked like! Love ur content as always and hope you'll reach 2mil subs soon too! Also, 🎉🎉🎉***HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY TOO!!***🎉🎉🎉

[@22emeralds32]

This looks amazing! The river now reminds me of the river near the campground where my family goes each summer, lots of good memories kayaking there. If the mesa was mountains it would look exactly like it!

[@Stranger2921]

you should try using jungle leaves for the palm trees, they should remain green in desert biomes

[@valentinomunoz9687]

Fwip I recommend using pointed dripstone for the trucks of the trees in this biome. I tend to use them for my straight warm biome trees.

[@becca3051]

I love watching you build live on stream because it is so satisfying watching all the work super fast in the videos xD you've really accomplished SO MUCH!! super excited for the next stage of the hardcore world

[@MazzyGG]

Same

[@rhewlif_dewdrop6296]

Happy birthday, fWhip! Your custom biome reminded me a lot of the Nile River. Supposedly the Nile is in a biome called “flooded savanna”. If you want to keep it in line with Minecraft’s naming convention, you could this biome the Savanna Wetland like the Savana Plateau.

[@myrandamiller91]

LOVE that mesa transformation! Can't wait to see what builds you add to it!

[@chubbyghost]

I don't know if anyone has ever mentioned this, but I LOVE your metal background music when you use it :) Super unique and fun to listen to in the video

[@samayahone3497]

why not use the azalea or birch leaves for the trees to get rid of the biome tint as theyre both unaffected? even spruce would wok better than the brown, surely? i mean i know its too late now but was using oak despite the tint a purposeful choice or just an oversight? im confused lol

[@thehighground4920]

Exactly. I was really confused at how he didn’t like the brown leaves when he could’ve just used leaves that you know, aren’t brown???

[@Khanvondog]

Happy birthday fWhip. I really like what you've done to remodel the river emerging from a mesa canyon onto a floodplain, it feels very natural. I've been to several places which look a lot like that. IMO, the palm (?) trees need to be greener; Since they were able to tap into enough water to grow and thrive, I'd expect their foliage to also be more lush. Maybe use mostly 'browner' leaves for the low bushes (especially further back from the river banks), and rely on sugar cane for green highlights in the riverside ground cover? That would free up Azalea for the trees, though again, you could transition to more biome specific colours for stunted trees (not necessarily palms) which are struggling to thrive, further back from the river? Just my thoughts. Love your work.

[@Brickify-1222]

Happy birthday fwip! I’ve tally enjoyed the progress you’ve made and the effort you’ve put into this hardcore world, hope to see more videos in the future!!!

[@erinjoyner3739]

I love your build videos, but honestly this terraforming one is one of my all time favs. Would LOVE to see some more terraforming of other biomes in the future!

[@tanel20]

New episode! Can't wait to watch it. Also happy birthday again

[@syrens_voice6946]

This biome reminds me so much of Ponce Inlet and the Inlet Shores in Florida. I used to go there every year as a kid with my family. Thank you so much Fwhip for giving me a piece of my childhood joy. Happy late Birthday!

[@Potatoarmy12]

Almost 2 years? How did the time go by so fast I remember the start as if it was yesterday. Love the progress so far.

[@ominouscherub]

you have a real talent for world building there’s so much detail in all your builds and makes me want to attempt these on my xbox it’s super cool imo thanks for the video!

[@kaihunter4815]

The amount of work you put into these series' and world's is honestly so inspiring and a little scary. Its always such a pleasure to watch you build and learn from it. Also happy birthday !

[@nonbinarymermaid]

this is a small thing but im very happy that you planted the sugar cane field the way you did. it's the most efficient way to plant! none of this silly grid pattern nonsense. and a very happy birthday to you fwhip! i hope everyone and the doggos are doing great :D

[@awesomehugo6001]

excited to see the transformation in all its glory! Have tried to watch the streams but haven't been able to see them all

[@SongbirdOwl]

Desertification is a natural process, so if you want to get 'tragic' with it, as opposed to 'lush desert', it could be a Desertifying Jungle/tropic/mesa/etc. So the river and lush parts are actually shrinking and slowly going away over time.

[@blazehb9373]

Happy Late Birthday Fwhip!Hope you had a great day👍

[@alittlerose1928]

All during the segment of After After I can hear sirens! Lol! XD Literally that is my life. Every day, all the time, police sirens, ambulances and fire trucks, zooming past my house!

[@Chaosgremlin69420]

You should make an Adobe city with all that orange terracotta. It would look really cool.

[@AldithIcewound]

I love the idea of a 'Lush River Valley' for the biome? Wonderful work, fWhip! I am always so inspired after watching your videos.

[@cheesy_roblox190]

wow, very impressive building skills!

[@naxosy]

Hi ! Loved the episode. Here's an idea : on the two hills of the mesa that are on each side of the river you could build two huge statues facing each other to greet people entering the valley by the river. Probably a big project but that usually doesnt stop you :D

[@Kur0Engel]

@fWhip 4:27 you put another sand in the row because u didn’t have red sand at the time and didn’t want to go looking for it, because it was “a future fwhip problem” 🤣

[@zenodotus-xxiv785]

The pitcher pod flowers really just MADE this delta come together. They look so good!!!

[@mot7372]

Little detailing thing for cacti i use is sometimes small amethist buds as the flowers. Witz a bit of scattering it can be a good little touch

[@jacobyboyer3681]

Biome name ideas: "Silt River", "Desert Delta", "Lush Basin", "Flooded Grassland". The Nile River was known for having a large quantity of Silt which was used for Agriculture, Pottery, and Mud brick production for construction. This could be the basis of buildings or features to bring into your biome!

[@ismailangekommen6785]

fWhip, you absolute madlad! This is such a tedious project and you compressed it in 38 minutes like its not much. I never really comment, but your landscaping is insane and it shows.

[@jennthehuman1491]

Along the river, where the sand has created hills and cliffs, you could have some layers of coloured terra cotta peaking out. It would help connect the two areas.

[@57daysproductions]

Your terraforming insoired me to try it, and I ended up loving it. Now, having seen you do a few biome transformations, I wanna give those a try, too! Just gotta figure out how to do custom trees haha

[@umbrify]

Wow! Seeing that beautiful lush shoreline, compared to what the biome looked like before, it’s almost hard to tell that it’s the same place at all! Incredible stuff!

[@tomhiscock9990]

The mud flats along the river are literally the perfect spot for mangroves that’s what they grow in, would look so nice with some custom ones along the bank

[@patrickwest5516]

1. Happy Birthday 2. That biome would be called a flood plain, as it is very similar to the Nile River

[@sleepingfloral]

HAPPY BIRTHDAY FWHIP!! the biome looks very nice as always :D

[@cedl752]

I love this new area! And I think the Name of the river should be Theti River , which is inspired by the name of a character in the French comics Papyrus (Théti-Cheri is the full name of the princess in the comic)

[@Runovaris]

For cactus flowers, I'd recommend using unlit candles. Can be green or brown if you want it to be a still-growing cactus flower, or pink if you want it to be like "flowering".

[@AMGitsKriss]

I've been terraforming a Mesa in an SMP with my friends since 1.18. It's so much work, but holy heck it's satisfying!

[@lagerlof_4089]

Super cool to see the whole transformation just come together at the end. There is just one tip, to put the sporeblossoms in between the leaves so that they dont pop out as much while still keeping the effect :))

[@daniellebrissing9485]

Happy Belated Birthday! The pots on the cactus with the plants look really cool. Can you also use sea pickles as well? I wonder if it would look like succulents on the ground? Put in clusters around the cactus? I might try it myself today and come back to let you know how it looks. But it might add some additional...texture? Green pops on the white sand or even the course dirt? Tucked up next to the walls of terracotta like its the cracks of the rocks? EDIT: the pots on cscrus did not work for me on my bedrock phone version...but the sea pickles did look kinda cool in clusters with some cactus.

[@amazingshorts9433]

Happy birthday dude , i think it would be cool if you built little houses on the side that lead up to a big custom tree in the jungle with tree houses

[@Blonde95Girl]

Cool transformation! I was initially sad to see the red rum go, but the lush desert looks cool. Happy birthday!

[@Logan0503]

I love the mesa build! Biome transformations are one of my favorite things to watch, and I’m excited to see you use more Red Sand (and Red Sandstone), as it’s one of my favorite blocks. Also happy late birthday!

Ive been catching up on all the episodes, and i love it. I think you should do a megacut of all your videos in this world, and make it like one of those ”i survived xx amount of days in minecraft”, and destroy all of the other creators who think 100 days is some kind of achivement.

[@dioliksniper5618]

If the Dwarves don’t have any spore blossoms... you could put a few that look hung up from the cave ceiling in an appealing and not painful looking way, and say some Elves gifted the spire blossoms to the Dwarves. Could hint at a possible other civilization in the long future for you to build. Maybe even another hint being a nearby elven village of farmers and foresters

[@collicou]

I think "Mesa Coolee" or something like that would be a good name for the biome. Which looks amazing by the way :)

[@iwan417]

Transformation looks great! River looks rather slow, so plants underneath the water should be growing bigger than in rivers with stronger stream. Just in case Future fWhip would take care of riverbed.

[@prestonbrandt1412]

Happy birthday to my fav empires member. Also, just so you know, i was in the live stream about building a tower/windmill, as i mentioned the grey carpet change. Again happy birthday and keep up the amazing work.

[@TiagoMonteiroArt]

You could replace the oak leaves in the mesa biome with spruce leaves. Those are always green (evergreens, get it?) (at least I'm pretty sure), and a little darker than the azalea leaves. Absolutely astonishing "Oasis River" you built! :D That's also my name suggestion for it, btw.

[@AlexisTwoLastNames]

this showed me that the lush green of moss and azalea will go well with the arid grass block. i wanna build some lush deserts around a few villages i found but was feeling discouraged by the idea of having to use all moss and azalea leaves solely.

[@buuzilla]

lush river in a desert invokes feelings of the Egyptian Nile, small fertile zone in an arid environment. "Fertile valley"?
