there is absolutely nothing wrong with commie blocks
they look like ass
and not the good kind of ass
the disgusting cottage cheese kind of ass you see on obese people
i can't recognise half of the blocks used
Steal from good looking houses and recreate them until you get the drift.
Start with small comfy houses.
Use different wallpapers in one room to make it less boring.
Walls should be thicker than 1 block once the buildings get bigger otherwise it looks to fickle.
if only someone would dump nice looking houses in this thread
Don't use symmetry, it makes it look boring
>tfw I tried make my base look like actual commie blocks once
Wish I still had that map.
>tfw innate urge to make everything symmetric because autism
The terraria general has some nice houses.
drive.google.com
Take a look at the collection.
I'm gonna dump some nice small one.
That house is basically a block with a neat roof and leveling.
Note that it doesn't have to be too crowded to be beautiful.
Fuck nice houses. Commie blocks are the most efficient and therefore best.
You're not gonna build nicely decorated intricate rooms for every fucking NPC. No. You build a square, put in a table, chair and candle and you move on to the next one. And then you get back to exploran.
Commie blocks look like shite tho.
...
That may be so, but function over form user.
whats going on with terraria otherworld?
not even mentioned this whole year I think
>he doesn't have seperate worlds for comfy building and exploring
>can't even get gud enough at making stairs
Terraria's shitty NPCs gimmick encourages players to build commie blocks for those waste-of-code soulless robots.
How do you encourage players to build good looking houses using game mechanics?
>Function
>Over form
>In a videogame
Why though.
To each his own I guess.
I did spent most of my time with building stuff.
I'm a sucker for treehouses.
...
Well, I must admit I'm jelly of all those nice houses, but when I'm playing myself I can't bring myself to invest the effort.
Get a good repertoire of blocks and paints going, in that example he is using marble blocks painted brown as the diagonal beams and what seems to be copper or some other metal as the roof tiles and foundation bricks.
The lower part is also unnacessible due to the 'beams' under the stair.
It's all about giving the illusion of authenticity. Emulate stuff around you and you can get some neat results. Once you have the techniques and knowledge down you can get stuff going that most people wouldn't think possible.
>mfw I finally made the Ankh shield
Making the Ankh Shield is the biggest pain in the ass because of all the random drop parts needed.
most of these are commieblocks tho
COMFY
In my fortress every NPC room has the same basic design, but I give each room a different theme.
Maybe have the NPCs ask for certain pieces of furniture in their house but that still wouldn't stop you from making a shitty rectangle with nothing on the outside.
don't fall for the square meme
squares look ugly
don't ever put more than 3 blocks in a row unless it's already inside something that isn't square
Cell phone's worse
>tfw still haven't beaten or even gotten up to the moonlord because I am bad
It seems like such a difficult game to get into. I've owned it for a very long time and could never play it for more than 10min at a time.
I see you, faggot
Anyone that's a complete noob want to play together?
The pirated version works with legit users btw.
I downloaded it but it seems very overwhelming. I would like to play with someone that is as lost as me.
Welp, just in case anyone wants to join
98.203.80.120
port 7777
Again, I don't know much about the game but willing to go in blind.
Oh yeah, password is v
sorry to spoonfeed but the normal password for things set up for Sup Forums is rage and if you dont everyone will call you a newfag
you fucking newfag
>few casts on a fresh map
>golden crate
There was also platinum all over spawn.
I have tried to host several times before and it never works
>made sure the port was correct
>made sure port forwarding was enabled in my router settings
>let the server port forward automatically
>made sure my global ip was correct
and my friend says that he gets stuck on connecting
what could be going wrong?
should I try port forwarding manually in my router settings?
top comfy
Yeah I had to manually port forward to 7777 or it would just try connecting forever.
I am going to try and redo the server so whoever joins HAS to start off with a fresh character.
>Stone walls
>Not Stone bricks
Enjoy your corruption
>NPCs [...] encourages players to build commie blocks
If you don't care about building a nice base, you can do that - but I wouldn't say it's encouraged, building something nice looking works fine as well.
Isn't it better to have the option of how you want to build instead of forcing a design that will limit creativity (or the lack thereof)?
76.119.157.119
7777
no password
tell me if this works please
>mfw no other game that wants to be Terraria-like will never be as good as Terraria
Maybe Planet Centuari will be fun... one day... Right?
Whoops, that double negative.
1. Stop making 90 degree angles everywhere
2. Stop making things symmetrical
Your building will improve if you follow these simple steps.
thanks swoocie
Ok I figured out how to make server side characters so OP motherfuckers don't join and overwhelm and stress me out.
Let's try this again:
98.203.80.120
port 7777
password: rage
BTW when you join you have to type in /register and put a password you want then type /login as I turned on server side characters
At least you're not stuck on Skelly P. Also rate my sort of ugly house.
Hey fucker that "borrowed" my pickaxe and left, I'm screwed.
"e sti cazzi"
What amazing map..i hate you btw
that is repulsive
Cant wait to pick this up later
can you drive any vehicles at all?
Theres always the apache
You can't fucking swim in this game?
What the fuck.
you can.
need diving gear though.
>type in password
>incorrect password player kicked
wtf user?
New password is rage
to not upset some autists
THERE ARE NO APACHES IN TERRARIA
>How the fuck do people make nice looking houses like this?
Find a location
Decide on a theme
Make a basic skeletal structure
Decide who/what you want where
Build accordingly
Also, make roofs, ceilings, and exterior walls more than one block thick
How do I make walls more than one block thick?
I'm a noob and I need aesthetics.
There are a number of ways.
Hold on, I'll boot up and take a screenshot for reference.
Here are some examples. Notice how adding a second material to the wall on the left can be used to create a pleasing visual effect. Also notice how placing a foundation material under the floor helps to define the structure and make it appear a bit more distinct and constructed. Compare that to the areas without a foundation material.
Any means of encouraging it would probably be obstructive and annoying. However, the current system discourages unique home design for each NPC, since you'll waste a lot of time traveling from one to another if you don't clump them all together. Building large and complicated houses can cause trouble in other ways as well. The game could probably be changed so that relocating NPCs is less of a hassle, that'd be a good start. Specialized storage for blocks and items would also help, since rearranging rooms is an unbearably slow process if you have chests full of stuff in them.
>tfw trying to build a roof that doesn't look like shit
Expert mode is nothing, this is the real challenge.
The only really bad parts of Expert Mode are the first few nights, Brain of Cthulhu, Skeletron, and Moonman. Brain is probably the worst one since it has an attack you can't dodge.
Yeah, you're right. I'd add the Solar Pillar to the list too, because I found this shit unbearable until I got a few banners.
>wanted to play a crimson world for once
>decide to do expert mode on mediumcore because why not
>read this
how fucked am I
ugly/10
destroy it and start over
Here we have a basic frame. At this point, you'll want to decide on which materials you'll be using. In this instance, I'll be replacing the walls and foundations.
I'll be getting to that.
Except the basic frame is still shit if you fill it,you have to do something to break the symmetry,like a fancy roof
It's just the start user
I've finished hardcore with a friend
its both a pain and a blessing
is it alright?
I based it on Yrimir's version of angler's house
here's a castle I made 6 months ago the last time I played terraria
can monsters break down your houses?
they can't break them but I'd advise against putting your NPCs on the ground at night after you kill the wall of flesh. They're almost guaranteed to die every single night unless you're not there or they're all off the ground
The glasse wall makes it look weird. Maybe, try to make it look more natural by using dirt and rock?
It's too empty to be anything else than boring
Oh shit hang on.
I think I may have done something passable here.
There are no monsters that destroy blocks as far as I know
Zombies can open doors during blood moons however
My unfinished house. Not very good looking but practical.
weren't clowns able to destroy blocks at one point?
That was patched, it was so fucking annoying
Pretty fucking cool.
Very. The Brain can hit you with repeated high-damage attacks that are more or less impossible to dodge.
Almost forgot about that. Yeah, the Solar Pillar would be worse than the Brain if it wasn't so late in the game. At least you can prepare for it.
I had an entire castle town built with giant walls and indivdual houses or buildings for every character, had the Dryad live in a cave in a forest near the town and actually terraformed the entire map to not look like shit
>tfw had my HD fried by a storm and lost it forever
I actually posted a screen here one time, but probably no one saved it.
ahhhh okay, I haven't played in a long ass time so I'd only read about that
motherfucking treehouses nigga, these were the shit in minecraft
Crimson is a curse. The expert mode brain of Cthulu is hard and it gives you a shitty item. EOW gives you one of the best accesories and it is easy as fuck. But still I always go for crimson worlds cause I love the Golden Shower spell.
Thanks man.
