Re: Monpazier, Guyenne, 13th Century
You can see which mods are used by viewing the mts file in a text editor (read-only - you don't want to change anything!) or a Hex editor if you have one. The Nodes used are plain text in the file. I have since changed the Middle Class house to use Moreblocks "Stone Bricks" (moreblocks:gre...

Re: Monpazier, Guyenne, 13th Century
Re:TwoElk Thanks for the post. Yes, I realize that the "ideal" view of Medieval urban architecture was never true in real life. Looking at modern Mompazier though shows how close it could be implemented. I plan to try and "re-build" some of the houses as happened over time but ad...

Monpazier, Guyenne, 13th Century
This is a new project (one of two) I'm working on for my private (family) server. Monpazier was a Bastide (Plannned, Geometric Town) founded by Edward the First (of England) to protect his territory in Gascony in 1284. You can read more about it in Lecture Notes of the Faculty of Architecture at the...

Re: compatibility nodes for MC schematics [mccompat]
OK, I give up. I'll just have to remember to replace all upside_down sandstone stairs when importing MC schematics by replacing with not-otherwise-used blocks in the MC schematic and then replacing them with something crafted. Annoying.

Still looking to fix the "upside_down" sandstone stair not registering. I did fix the normal one. Anybody know the MineCraft ID? Or is it a SELECT sub-number? Very annoying.

Re: compatibility nodes for MC schematics [mccompat]
Even stranger: When I throw the spruce fence and look at it in debug[F5] it registers as mccompat:planks_spruce instead of mccompat:spruce_fence as all the other fences do. Therein somewhere lies the error in the code though if it's in mccompat or in whatever creates fences I don't know.
