Minecraft: Illegal Building Ideas

Minecraft building idea videos usually involve vanilla Minecraft build hacks and Minecraft building techniques. On the contrary, I whipped up a mod to add illegal building ideas to Minecraft, similar to illegal Lego building ideas. This is the sequel to my video, Minecraft: Illegal Building Techniques. These are build hacks you should never build in Minecraft - they're cursed! The thumbnail is from an actual in-game screenshot with some edits.

Drawing on blocks is also useful in survival: Imagine being in a huge cave system and you mark your path so that you find out. (due to that there should be a durability)

I love how they actually added this via commands

[@mantacid1221]

Three things: 1. How hard would it be to add collision to the transformed blocks? 2. You might be having light issues with the crayons because most textures that use two layers use the second file for glowing eyes (think enderman, spider, and phantom.) borrowing code from the player’s hair layer may work a bit better. 3. Does this mod have compatibility with Chisels and bits (or other mods like it)? If not, you’re missing out on the chance to make possibly the most groundbreaking mod in history.

[@xaneanian]

nah I tried chisels and bits with it and it crashes the game when I use both items on one block

[@oi_kirb]

Technically it's impossible to add collisions to the transformed blocks cause minecraft is coded in such a way that to optimise performances the game only calculate collisions in a grid... so it's impossible to make a slope with collisions or anything like that... bruh mojang thought about performance issues back then to only limit modders even more 🗿🗿🗿

I could imagine using this for actual building! Also the village sphere reminds me of the mirror dimension from Dr Stange, I have no idea why

[@jacobwilks9204]

These tools, if used correctly, could be a game changer in building stuff. If Eight made this mod a plugin, that could really impact Minecraft server making. Triangular rock-like structures could be built with the wrench, and custom ores/blocks/crafting tables could be made with crayons. And you could make mobs with both too. Also, when coding it, you wouldn't need someone like SystemZee to code new mobs or anything, and instead it would be within the reach of someone like Fundy to code something simple like an edited block that moves and looks like a mob. The animations might look worse, nonetheless hard to code to make it look easier, but to some, it may be worth it.
