LadyWYT Posted June 3, 2024 Report Posted June 3, 2024 I had to stare at it for a few minutes to figure out what was going on--it trips up my tired brain, lol. 2 hours ago, ifoz said: This image is absolutely insane, is this a Vintage Story texture pack for Minecraft? It certainly appears that way! I think it could be even harder to tell which game it is if the trees were rebuilt and the bed model tweaked.
Niko 5927 Posted June 3, 2024 Author Report Posted June 3, 2024 i love making this exact house in any game that allows it, here's the same exact house made using roblox studio 2

I don't recognize a single block anywhere. The maple log looks close, but it's not. Unless it's maybe a graphics setting I don't use. 1

Unless it's maybe a graphics setting I don't use. You can see the Minecraft wooden planks texture on the inside of the windows on closer inspection. Also the door and bed are Minecraft, and the whole screenshot has no shaders, like Minecraft. The photo of outside the house also resembles a Minecraft landscape.
Thorfinn Posted June 4, 2024 Report Posted June 4, 2024 OK, thanks. Never played MC, or even looked at it. I did inspect the grass outside the window pretty closely to rule out it being a texture from an open source game (now game engine) called MineTest that I used to use to teach an after-school program on scripting (Lua). Yeah, the windows were also a giveaway it was not the one I was thinking of. So this is just MC? Or a variant texture pack? While pretty much everything else is obviously not VS, I've gotta admit the maple log is really close... 1

As @ifoz already noted, there aren't any shaders like there typically are in VS, the bed and door are the wrong models for VS as well as the outdoors being styled like Minecraft. Particularly the trees. Vintage Story trees and Minecraft trees are both blocky, but Vintage Story shapes them in a more realistic fashion. Minecraft trees kinda look more like lollipops. The terrain generation differences I don't quite know how to describe, other than Vintage Story's generation feels both more realistic and more how beta Minecraft generation used to be(a lot more variation and cool landmarks to find). 2

If you mean the maple log looks like it's in VS, I agree. Though without the VS shaders (since Minecraft doesn't have shaders) does it seem to anyone else like it's a little.. compressed? I think there might be a little more .jpeg-ification on it's pixels, if you know what I mean. It looks flatter almost. Like it's painted on, maybe that's just me though. I think it's definitely a custom texture pack for Minecraft using textures ripped from Vintage Story. The landscape outside the house and through the windows is a giveaway, as they feature only Minecraft textures and Minecraft-like generation. While it could be argued that may just be Minecraft textures applied to VS, the lack of shaders and distinctly Minecraft-esq generation makes me think this is not the case and that this a texture pack inside of Minecraft. The shingles on the roof of the house though.. That's not a Minecraft or Vintage Story texture. I don't know where that has come from. Edited June 4, 2024 by ifoz 1

Sasha Densikoff Posted November 12, 2024 Report Posted November 12, 2024 Lol, this is Minecraft with a texture. We're not stupid! Also, your build could be better. It's very basic. You can add more interest to your builds by extending the roofing over the edge, for starters. Adding any sort of texture on the walls is good too, often aiming for framing the outside windows in something. Fencing can add a lattice-like texture, and is one of my favourite things to add. Don't forget trap doors too. You can make them into outer shutters for your windows. Showing some 3 dimensional texture really lifts it. You can also spice it up by building more than a box with a door. That sort of build is what little kids do, lol! Give your house a porch, or go two storey and add a balcony, so you have a view to watch the sunset with. Add a wing or two to it if you like. How about a basement? It's good for extra storage. You can absolutely do better than a box with a door. Play around with it. See what you can come up with. And please, next time make it a build from the actual Vintage Story game. It's nice to keep it relevant. We aren't so easily tricked. 2 2 1
