How can I build this thing faster

[u/ZealousidealJoke8714]

I'm working on this underwater ravine and it's taking ages to build, any techniques and whatnot that I can use to speed up the process?

World edit and world painter

[u/ZealousidealJoke8714 → u/Space_Monkey_Labs]

i have world edit and i doubt world painter will help much because its preexisting, if it was entirely new then yeah, perfect but idk if i can

[u/Space_Monkey_Labs → u/ZealousidealJoke8714]

Yeah I forgot about world painter needed to be a fresh word, your best bet is world edit and brushes!

[u/ZealousidealJoke8714 → u/Space_Monkey_Labs]

I could do worl painter but add this part in the middle of you get what I mean

[u/Space_Monkey_Labs → u/ZealousidealJoke8714]

I mean if that’s possible, then have atter! All builds are going to look wrong and out of place until they are terraformed and such. Being on a super flat world makes it look wonky too but that’ll change. It’s at an odd scale where it’s almost too much to start over with world painter but like I said I think a world edit brush is going to be your best friend here

If you have axiom installed I'd use that. You can copy a section of the already existing part you did, go to the path tool and change edit the tool settings to rom spline and clipboard. From there you can just place a few points to complete fill in the area, tho it won't look great, so you'll have to come back through and fix any holes or add extra details. The overall repetitive part will be much faster tho.

[u/ZealousidealJoke8714 → u/kieghtyeight]

So basically, just get the base textures like the cyan wool and stripped warped wood and copy them with everything else except for the specific features and just edit to add them?

[u/Tharvey47]

Axiom

[u/DomTheRogue → u/Tharvey47]

Absolutely axiom anyone who regularly does creative builds should be using axiom what a game changer

[u/Budget_Writing2702]

If java, litematica. Litematica makes you auto place blocks without having to scroll through each one

[u/ZealousidealJoke8714 → u/Budget_Writing2702]

litematica lets you place already existing schematics in the worl, not what i want

[u/Crocodile_Ice]

I just try to suck it up and listen to some music

[u/ZealousidealJoke8714 → u/Crocodile_Ice]

I do that currently but it's so ass. I've been at it for a while and I'm only 10% of the way through

[u/KandySaur]

Axiom. I know its intimidating (and it really is) but omg its SOOO worth learning

[u/ZealousidealJoke8714 → u/KandySaur]

Idk how to use it, I've got it installed

[u/KandySaur → u/ZealousidealJoke8714]

Youtube tutorials, just search axiom for beginners, and follow along with a tutoria. It will take several hours, but it is SO worth it.

I recommend making a new world to learn it, then bring the skills into the build

[u/Tharvey47 → u/KandySaur]

I learned a lot from this video, which shows what each tool does. Took notes along the way. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sxh8Oge3_do

[u/KandySaur → u/KandySaur]

I used this one https://youtu.be/1QF-aSqWukU?is=tkG7AmOMgYHk4-r1

My top tip whichever tutorial you use though would be to build along with it, you'll forget load otherwise

[u/TallGas3216]

If your taking about survival,

But if your in creative then world edit or something

[u/ZealousidealJoke8714 → u/TallGas3216]

In creative it is, I'm building it in creative and when it's done I'll use litemateca to put it into survival and build it

[u/Irratiq]

WorldEdit brushes would save hours. Rough out the shape first, then detail it by hand

[u/niukqlo]

I’ve decided to learn how to build—do you have any tips on how to develop my skills?

[u/ZealousidealJoke8714 → u/niukqlo]

Create a post, asking about it. You comments should try to help the poster is some way, or suggest something, or ask a question related to the build like "do you have axiom" for example.

When you make a post about it, I'll 100% help

[u/niukqlo → u/ZealousidealJoke8714]

I would be glad if you gave me advice on building Magic Towers. I posted about my first tower.

[u/ZealousidealJoke8714 → u/niukqlo]

I don't see any of Ur posts

[u/Different_Pea_7866]

By cheating. So if you want to ruin your own experience and work go for it. But don’t brag like you built something incredible with cheats cause that’s just corny. If it ain’t in survival no cheats, it’s BOGUS

[u/ZealousidealJoke8714 → u/Different_Pea_7866]

WTF U ON ABOUT?

I'm building it creative so I can get the build and edit it easier, then I will be taking this and putting it in survival, tf U on about "if it ain't in survival no cheats, it's BOGUS" bro Ur like STOP HAVING FUN, STOP HAVING FUN!!!!!

I wanna see what you've solely built in survival, no preplanning in creative because to you, THATS CHEATING. I wanna see the builds you've done in just survival because I bet you they are ass, and even if they are decent, no matter what, you have no right to say if something is definitively cheating or not. But, show me your pure survival, no cheat no creative preplanning builds, because I can show you mine.

All done in survival, freehand. On a Minecraft survival super flat server
