    Tip for superflat cities: if you can, try and find a pre 1.18 flat world file, that way the ground is at 0 instead of -60

    Tip: If you have CurseForge, you can make it look even more realistic with mods such as FramedBlocks and Paladin's Furnite. If you want to, you can even use real logos without maps with the Immersive Paintings mod. Chipped and Rechiseled also provided block varities to texture your house with the right color, and for Industry Areas, you should use my favorite mod, the Create Mod.

    • @zombieplays9
      @zombieplays9  20 днів тому +1

      I'm glad you enjoyed! Which city is better is definitely a matter of opinion. Both cities use quite different styles. while everything in my city is a little bit oversized vs. the player, from what I've seen, many of your buildings are a little smaller. Which is a really cool style choice! Often many of my buildings turn out pretty plain/flat because of the scale and many of your builds don't have that problem. Really though, neither is better than the other because they are both very unique!

    If you're on Java, the superflat limitations don't really apply since you can make customized superflat worlds on Java. It's not as intuitive as it was on Legacy Console since Legacy Console provided you with menus to select blocks and to adjust how many layers of a selected block you want, but in Java you have to write all of that into a text input field.

      @@jvdgie8488 mine is more of a moderate climate. Gets both a proper winter and summer. Spruce are imo the best looking default tree. That’s why I used them so much. If you have a warmer climate and just need to make a forest, there’s nothing wrong with oak or birch. If you are looking for one tree to help decorate a lot, either build a custom one or use azalea. Again tho it all comes down to personal preference so do what you like. Just know that spruce are less common in hotter climates.
