Detailed building

george1979k · Jan 13th 2016

Hello there.I have only one question.How do you build arch structures and also all kinds of shapes like cones and circles with block textures? I know about the command setconstructionrotation veryhigh etc but how do you place cobblestone blocks for example freely in the world and also rotate and change the size of them,just like planks and beams? I would love to build detailed stuff like that but cannot find any information yet.A reply from anyone who knows would be greatly appreciated.
The links below are just so I can show you what I mean.I do not own the pictures.

The trick is that you place woodbeams with e.g. cobblestone texture and scale it like a block. You can only get a woodbeam with a changed texture via console with

Code

item woodbeam [amount][ID]

Thanks a lot Galveston.I saw all those builds that people were creating and didnt know how to do the texture.I appreciate your response.You made somebody very happy.

You can also use "item window1-4 64 Id". Has the same effect or "item woodplank x ID" for smaler parts.
You can receive wonderful effects by changing textures while rotating.

Do you by chance know to lay the barrels down on floor? I saw some pictures on the media and presentation page.

This is not possible, I think. Maybe they've used posters.

make a blueprint from the barrel - than you can rotate it.

Lol I was reading barren (german), that means ingot in english and I was really trying to put them on a woodplank.

There really should be no difference. A wood beam just has a different texture then a block, technically what difference does it make if it looks like wood or stone. I do not think the wood beams are voxels but rather objects . Anyhow if you just retexture the wood beams they should be able to look like anything.

I agree with you Trillnar.
