I Built a FLINT FARM to earn MONEY FAST on Create Superflat Survival!

I was browsing the other day over on the Curseforge app for a modpack that pretty much just utilized the Create mod in the 1.20 update, all in a Superflat world environment on Minecraft.
Little to my knowledge no such thing actually existed…
So I took it upon myself to go ahead and Create(get it) my very own modpack for me to play around on.
Once again, I'm gonna tackle the Superflat world challenge!
Wish me luck
You can check out the pack here if you’re interested;

Dan using big cogs on small cogs for no reason then moving the whole machine back one block to make it fit got me rolling 😂 he just loves the grind .. amazing content 😆

[@DanRobzProbz]

"Grind" is my middle name... ok its not really.

[@fortunefable2717]

@DanRobzProbz 😂 perfect response there dan .. got me addicted to another modpack lol .. Still stuck on kabbalah block and now this absolute genius pack 🤣 I must say that the wife is not your biggest fan lol...keep it up mate ❤️

[@N0FoxGiven]

I saw the big cog bit and using a Redstone control block instead of a simple gear box... both hurt so bad to watch but the complete lack of thought to it is kinda endearing and makes me want to try this on my own time as a relax pack. Also he took so long to compact the cobble Gen and kept pulling all the gears and stuff off. Love the pack and concept but Jesus I hope ya pick it up over time and don't keep making the create version of good old fashion Dire Wire xD

Dan spending a bunch of money on sugar cane for a book instead of buying the book that's in the same shop page had me cackling.

[@froggychair7928]

I was screaming at my screen like DAN THE BOOK IS RIGHT THERE PLEASE

[@BenInBlack]

I noticed that ;-), FYI you can you the Mechanical press to squish 1 sugarcane into 1 paper

[@hatplayzroblox2273]

me too I was screaming at him through the screen

[@hatplayzroblox2273]

now that I think about it though, if he plants the sugar cane he can make multiple books.

[@bethisadude]

Probably for the best, he has sugarcane growing now.

[@elliejohnson2786]

-You can buy books directly -You can buy 9 iron nuggets and craft an ingot to save $100 -You can make a dedicated sappling tree so you don't need to buy sapplings after harvesting them (this would have helped get the ball rolling earlier) -You could probably set up an infinite water source without a bucket by using flowing water, water wheels or blocks to displace it, and kelp. Then you can extend these horizontally to get a large kelp farm without needing a bucket There's so many areas where you've claimed this modpack is grindy but the only grind you've added is through your own doing. Even skyfactory is more grindy than this and they have mods to replace bonemeal for free. This modpack is definitely not grindy (and that's a good thing)

[@iabsorburskill4424]

ok big boy, whats ur bench pr then?

[@WinstonWhitetail]

One optimisation tip for you if you want the drill to mine cobble at the same speed as it grinds it into gravel (to prevent backlog on the cobble side), set the drill to mine at half the speed of the millstone Since you have the millstone at 256 rpm, you can set your drill at 128 rpm and hopefully it should be good And to make the generator smaller (and prevent cobble from dropping into that water hole), use a waterlogged leaf block

[@baboosrandomvids5390]

a few tips! you can use stripped wood to get shafts, same crafting recipe. they can only be used as a shaft block, and not as a crafting ingredient but its still useful! also you can make a large waterwheel with just 8 planks and one of your current wheels. if you already find this out then sorry i havent finished the vid yet lol

[@sebastianmaxg9265]

Also using belts to transfer power, instead of a ton of shafts and gearboxes

[@JCaskey12]

Dan you are doing great. Was curious why you didnt just buy the book for 50 instead of the sugarcane even though its needed lol. I am really enjoying the series and im going to try and do it differently so you dont copyright strike me lmao. The backpacks on mobs is great. My mob farm is ready for ep. 3 and even drowned for copper. Thinking a copper sword might be nice Nice job getting the milk bucket. Maybe should have saved the milk incase a witch got you with a potion. GG

[@painedragon128]

Hiya Dan, another fun video you got here. I don't know if this makes a difference but, when I have seen and used water wheels before I had the water flowing over more of the wheel (from behind and above) so water flows over more of the wheel. I am also playing along and am planning a mob farm to help get more resources easier (alloy, iron ingots, leather armor, etc)

[@DanRobzProbz]

Hey! Cool that you’re playing along too, a mob farm is a great idea. (I need one!) As for the water wheels… Yes, that used to be the case. Not so much anymore, take a look with ponder “w” key & you’ll see. ;)

[@saadmansur7144]

One tip you don't need gearshifts to reverse the direction a gearbox would also do it

[@ButtKickington]

Even better would be just two gears next to each other. Make the belt longer if you need to, it's free anyways. Edit: He also could have just switched the direction of the water wheel for free.

[@viktorasbalnaitis6149]

Very true saad, i was so frustrated at him for that reason😂

[@N0FoxGiven]

Tip. That gearshift was horribly unnecessary, a gearbox would have done the same. You never needed that larger gear and could have just pushed the gearshift back one instead of that entire mechanism. There is a lot of unnecessary stuff going on here and it hurts. But i guess it makes sense.

[@thinkdunson]

43:08 if you extend the belt out by one, then the belt itself will connect to the gearbox instead of needing that extra cog to go around the corner. and you don't have to move the parts that are driving the drill either. just insert another shaft at that point in the belt. and you can extend a belt by r-clicking the end of it with another piece of belt. or you can shorten one by r-clicking with a wrench.

[@thinkdunson]

when you're this strapped for cash, you can use two large cogs in place of a gearbox. they can be placed at 90 degrees from each other and connect around a corner... if you're not sure how to place it correctly, hold a large cog and point at one already placed... when you get it right, you'll see the ghost image of it being placed perpendicularly. you can do this to go around corners horizontally, or to convert rotation from vertical to horizontal or vice versa. it's functionally identical to a gearbox, but it only requires the two cogs in exchange for needing more space in the world.

[@WinstonWhitetail]

A farmer's delight recipe that might be useful to know is for books, you can make paper with tree bark (using an axe on wood in a cutting board) and canvas with straw (using a knife on grass, wheat or rice)

[@dragonkight1106]

You should play this as a skyblock lol also you can use a fan to wash gravel into iron nuggets if you didn’t know

[@WinstonWhitetail]

Atm each iron ingot costs 1k per ingot or 900 per 9 nuggets to buy and you'd need at least 4k (or 13k if you havent gotten the press) to buy all the iron you need to start one But most definitely an iron farm is doable once you have it all

[@MrBaxter]

@@WinstonWhitetailall he needs is a fan to start washing and then craft it into ingots himself

[@WinstonWhitetail]

@@MrBaxter definitely a viable option, though once you get some villagers i think the vanilla iron farm might be a bit faster, so before then gravel washing is a good option

[@N0FoxGiven]

​@@WinstonWhitetail Vanilla iron farm can provide I think it's 1-5 iron every 5 minutes at its fastest? Washing gravel depends entirely on the input. And is fully scalable by the amount of cobble you produce. Fully capable of producing thousands of iron per hour under the same foot print.

[@WinstonWhitetail]

@@N0FoxGiven both are scalable depending on your needs and knowledge, so both ways of iron farms are a valid way of doing so Plus i do have to say, create iron farms can look cool

Hey Dan, you can use belts for vertical or horizontal momentum transmission, so you can make a vertical windmill

The windmill is unique and iconic, and I think it looks like a nice slope house thing, I like it!

[@DanRobzProbz]

Aww thanks

[@dwr1001]

4th or so Looking forward to a great video Also for the kelp, you could make the water flow in a canal and plant it there

[@DanRobzProbz]

It’s only a temporary solution for now but I plan on making a proper automatic kelp farm at some point

[@HikariMagic20]

At first, I was just thinking that this would be fun to just watch, but now I kinda want to play this pack. I can see ways to improve some things that you have set up, ws well as ways to possibly power through some sections. That kelp at the beginning makes it entirely possible to have all the water you could want. o.o Also, I wasn't aware of the possibility of getting the milk bucket from the wandering traders. That is quite nifty.

I'm subscribed 🎉

[@DanRobzProbz]

Yay! ;)

[@Spikeba11]

Gears: It is the gears with touching teeth that change the speed, the gears with touching shafts do not change the speed. So you don't need a small gear coming out if the water wheel and you don't need a large gear before the gearshift, both are just acting as a regular shaft.

[@stayb1essed50]

yessss another bangerrr

[@DanRobzProbz]

Boom!

[@jakajaka3064]

You can use flowing water on the top or bottom of the water wheel. Won't increase the gear but will up the speed by a bit

[@Justsammie90]

Yay!!! A house!!! 🎉🎉 also you could of bought a book I swore I seen it on the same page as sugar cane. Your filthy rich 💵💶💷💴

[@thesmartking5188]

Dan... 🤦‍♂ the reason the smaller water wheels you can only speed up the rotation 4 times compared to the larger one's 6 times is not because the larger one is faster, but the opposite actually. the larger one you need to speed up more to get to the same speed as the smaller one ( 2 times) but the larger one makes more stress units, which means you can hook it up to more machines also, the gearshift is only useful if you want to switch the rotation a lot, but if you want to change the rotation, just put two cogs next to each other and the one next to it is turning the opposite direction

[@KenN0tGood]

[@oPlazmaMC]

so with bigger water wheels, we can actually hook up 6 (1 is just speeding it up to the speed of the other)

[@BUY_YOUTUB_VIEWS.945]

This is the content I didn't know I was craving. So good!

[@DanRobzProbz]

I’m also hooked too!

[@Gearhead9415Gaming]

Few tips you dont need a gearshift to change a shafts rotation direction a gear box will do that also you can stack all your water wheels as long as they all have flowing water then will all produce also large wills spin slower but produce more power you can put and power a small well to get it all spinning faster with the upgraded power

[@Gearhead9415Gaming]

Also if you put andisite casing on your cogs the right way you can make your gear box much more compact

[@maxxi5180]

the vault coins from vault hunter modpack is an awesome replacement for this mods coins

So, i just started playing today. Im like money wise ahead of you( start of episode) but have no create stuff and am too scared ror moby. Any tips?

[@bow-tiedengineer4453]

You really don't need gearboxes, you can turn the corner with two large gears, and reverse rotation with three. It's a little less space efficient, but so much cheaper.

[@dakotaplays06]

If it has an inventory, a create mod funnel can put items in it

[@saviantarrant6493]

I believe that you can use belts vertically

[@glenncalkins6154]

With the gear shift you didnt have to move everything, the big cog next to it does nothing, just small cog directly into the gearshift....

[@Bahaa2044]

hey Dan, They might be an error in your pack(or an error in curseforge) because curseforge will not let me download it. It just gives me an error when it reaches above certain percentage.

[@Rapandreas]

I realize this episode is a month old, but you don't need a gearshift to reverse rotation. A gearbox does it automatically.

[@PuzzledLizard]

There is a spelling mistake in the modpack. Under pillagers in the "Welcome" quest lines under pillagers it syas "Creepers have a %50..."

[@abadgurl2010]

I just realized how much of an inefficient mess your cogs are. You’re not supposed to attach them to each other at the spot where the Shafts go, you're supposed to have the edges fo the cogs touching so the spin each other and thus have faster speed.

[@user-gh5vp6vh7j]

More water around a waterwheel makes more rotational power

[@DanRobzProbz]

No it doesn’t, it used to back in the days though…

[@martjoller1676]

You can't get faster using large waterwheels: small waterwheels generate 16 rpm of speed and 128 su of stress, but large waterwheels generate 8 rpm of speed and 512 su of stress and big cog to small cog speed ratio is 1:2, (so stress ratio is 2:1) so big waterwheel with 2 cogs (128 su, 16 rpm) = small waterwheel (128 su 16 rpm, also sorry for being a nerd. Edit: only thing that makes large waterwheel better is the look of it.

This is a pain to watch. Instead of using a expensive gearshift you could just have used 2 cogwheels to flip the direction. And also for vertical you could've just used 2 large cogwheels to flip the direction from horizontal to vertical. Ahhh such a pain to watch for someone that likes create as much as i do

[@Mr_Ioannis]

Dan its not that hard to watch a create beginner's guide or something

[@neetscholar4149]

Before adding any more Waterwheels, or making bigger ones, you should start by maximizing those small ones you already have. One good tip in Create, if you take a minute to stop and actually look at the thing you try to use, most of the tech stuff works just like IRL, and make total sense. Problem is most people don't take a minute to stop and look at it. Or they think stuff works IRL cuz magic or something. First of all, they are directional. If you pay close attention, you will notice the paddles are off-centered. Making them spin one way will give more power than making them spin the other. I THINK the one to the right of the waterfall was the right way, but feel free to test both just to make sure. The other way to squeeze more power out of your small Waterwheel is to have more flowing water pushing it. Imagine a vertical 3x3x1 hole carved in a wall, with a Waterwheel in the middle. Place a block (or a slab, or trapdoor, something to stop water) in the upper-right corner. Place water on top, it should flow to the left, giving the Waterwheel some oomph. To the left, water will go down, giving the Waterwheel some MORE oomph. At the bottom, it will flow to the right, giving same Waterwheel even MORE oomph. Now if you had access to some, you could place a block of Soulsand in the bottom-right corner, and a water source just above, to the right of the Waterwheel, and the bubbles going up would give that wheel the max oomph it could get. You can also get more power by stacking multiples Waterwheels on the same shaft right next to each other. You just need to be careful you make all of them spin the same direction at the same speed, or things will break. Also, you don't absolutely need Gearboxes to change axial direction, or Gearshifts to change rotational direction. ALL of that can be done with regular gears, those aren't just there for boosting speed. Every time you place 2 gears right next to each other, the rotational direction flips. So if at the end you are spinning the wrong way, you just need to add one small gear, and another small gear connecting to it, and your rotational direction will be flipped again. As for changing your shaft's axis, imagine you start with a shaft on the X axis, and want one on the Z axis. One block before that intersection, add a big gear at the end of the shaft on the X axis, And one big gear at the end of the shaft on the Z axis.
