Idk if anyone else does this, but when I play Minecraft and get pets I put them places and give them "jobs". I have all these buildings inhabited solely by animals. Watchtowers with watch-dogs. Docks with fisher-cats. Mines with donkey miners. Honestly my signature "finishing touch" to a build is to put an animal inside it hahahaha

Writing this down both for me and for other Minecraft AU (Or even ARG) creators!

Cool things you can base a fictional cult/religion in Minecraft over:

Jean the Ender Dragon, Her egg, The End Crystals or the end in general.

The Farlands. If they aren't in your universe they absolutely should be /hj

Any of the boss or more powerful mobs. The Warden, Wither, Elder Guardian etc.

The Nether. Like maybe a group sacrifices things into the portal and something on the other side throws things through.

Totems Of Undying. I feel like the fact they look like an Illager isn't talked about enough.

Enchantment Tables & Brewing Stands.

Some of the rarer mobs could also be good, especially for religions/cults of Villagers. Like Creakings, Camel Husks etc.

OR, if it's Nether Mobs, they can worship something from the overworld! Like a cow that wandered through a portal!

Was writing the bottom part when I thought of an honestly REALLY good one. One based around Golden Dandelions and the idea of eternal youth/life.

I was about to post this when I thought of another. Yk the removed Dreams Dimension? A religion/cult in a story or even ARG based around that would be fire

Would like to specify a bit that this was written with the ideas of it being used in my AU, where there are 2 species that are actually prone to religion, Piglins and Villagers. So I was mostly thinking about them and other mobs, not players.

Another good tip is think about what dimension their in. And if they have access to other ones. For example if a group in the nether with no access to the Overworld found a chicken (Which yes do spawn naturally there) which produced food in the form of eggs, they might worship it!

Hope these helped! Suggestions are welcome :]

Heyy :]

So im trying to make some minecraft angel statues but i have some trouble with making the wings

This is how the statue looks like itself, the wings are made with gray banners but I think they look a bit off, especially from the sides

Does anyone have an idea how else I could make them without using banners??

(Also the fence arms are gonna be replaced by pale oak fence)

Fun Fact: the Jungle wood texture is just the Oak texture but sideways and blurred slightly!

They've been lying to us for 15 years T_T

Pixel Circle / Oval Generator (Minecraft)

I would generally recommend starting from the center of the circle, then drawing four straight lines towards the points where you want the circle to be placed. Make sure the lines are of equal length to maintain symmetry.

Then go to https://minecraftcirclesgenerator.com/, enter the size needed and voilà:

It turned out as round as possible in Minecraft! :)

I used it to build my water fountain. (Tip: When building a spiral staircase, start with the smallest circle on the inner side to ensure it's connected, then work your way out, arranging the rest of the stairs around it.)

pro tip<3

When exploring caves, always put your torches on the left side of the wall to keep track of where you are.

Roxy's Top Minecraft Tips:

Hoard like a goblin, as long as you have a chest to put it in. Yes, you will probably need all that extra stone for something. Yes, you will probably want all that netherrack as a cheap temporary block. No, you will probably not want all that uncobbled deepslate (let's not get crazy here).

If you have emeralds, the wandering trader is actually a decent early-game source of nautilus shells, saplings you don't have, and blue ice (which is good for redstone machines). You can also pop off his leads from his llamas, without killing him, by putting down a boat and letting the llamas sit in it. Please stop murdering the little guy...

I am a major advocate of abiding by The Three Laws Of Big Ugly Holes In The Ground. Which is a law I just made up, but is a common problem in Minecraft worlds where people undertake megaprojects. The Three Laws Of Big Ugly Holes states:

If you spend hours and hours digging a big, ugly hole in the ground for a project, you will now have a big ugly hole in the ground.

If you don't want to look at a big ugly hole in the ground, you may have to spend a lot of time and energy to make it look nice again.

And lastly, if you don't have the time or energy to fix the big ugly hole in the ground, you will have to look at it every single time you're in the area. Make sure you REALLY need that big ugly hole in the ground.

Barrels are excellent for building spruce furniture in Minecraft. But other villager work stations are also really good for building furniture! Cartography tables are excellent for building dark oak furniture and decor, because they look like they're made of dark oak. Likewise, fletching tables look like they're made of birch, so they're good for birch furniture. Bee hives also look like cardboard boxes or oak drawers.

Never underestimate the power of armor stands. They can really liven up a space, and there are some cool mods out there for posing them now. Disabling gravity also makes them less laggy.

Teach yourself just a little bit of redstone. You'll find ways to use it to benefit yourself.

If you're not going to be fighting other players, the Smite enchantment is probably going to be more useful to you than Sharpness. There are more undead enemies in the game than any other type, and suiting your melee weaponry towards them is a good idea. Add Fire Aspect, and you have a sword that can take out most monsters very quickly!

Allays and other flying mobs have difficulties navigating blocks that are not full blocks, such as trapdoors, fences, amethyst, and slabs. If you want your pets to free-range in your house, you may want to remove these obstacles to prevent them from getting stuck.

A complicated storage system will not fix your organizational habits. It might help! But if the idea of making one exhausts you, aim for something simpler, and you may find that any organization at all will help you more.

Minecraft will still be there after you have a snack and take a drink of water. 🥪🥤
