(music)
How's it going everyone.
Welcome back to The Minecraft, lets play.
My name of course is SystemZee
and today we are gonna start work on
the new project.
That's right, the Cabin in the Woods.
I'm extremely excited because we've got a
very, very cool location picked out.
So, I'm gonna go ahead and, uh
run up these little steps here,
these little pathways so we can wa..
What's up dog? (laughs)
Yo what up dog?
And we're gonna jump right off here and
I'm gonna show you guys what we're doing.
So welcome to a mega Tiaga Biome
We are very far away from the Mesa Biome.
So, no going back to that for a while,
um, but we are here in the new area.
So this is where we are going to be
building the Cabin in the Woods that
I was talking about last episode.
Now all of this, I did record me building
but I deleted the footage.
I deleted the footage,
and it looks great
and I'm very sad
but we're not gonna sit here and, you know
think about what could have been.
(laughs)
We're gonna talk about what will be.
We're gonna be building an awesome cabin.
A survival cabin here, right in this spot
and it's gonna be a, ya know
a moderately sized one,
but what's really important is the
decoration around it.
It's gonna be really cool.
And this is gonna be a redstone, kind of
heavy, uh, cabin I hope.
At least with farming, um,
cause the main idea is to get more
fireworks from this whole area,
because creepers are better in forest
and you know, that kind of stuff.
Um, but this is gonna be a really, really
cool project, I'm very excited
So this is where our architects
house is gonna be.
This is where we're gonna live
for the next few episodes.
So, let me give you guys a little tour.
So, we're gonna walk around here
and before we get to the landscaping
I'm gonna show you guys something
cool that you might wanna do
if you're doing something similar.
So, this is our house, right
very, very small.
Not a lot of storage going on, right,
how are we gonna store all of our
blocks for this project?
Well, thanks to the Shulker boxes
or the backpacks, in our case,
we can store them all in categories
in a Shulker box,
and I love that.
That system is gonna be great,
little bit of extra work to get something
simple like wood, um,
but it's just gonna allow us to store
a lot more, but it's very expensive.
I think after this episode I'm probably
gonna spend some time to, uh,
go farm some Shulker shells,
that would be great.
Uh, but then we've got two furnaces,
one there, and one there.
Of course a bed, and then
our basic stuff here.
And I'm just very excited
I think this is gonna be cool.
So, that's the cabin.
What's up again, Dog? (laughs)
Oh, he looked at me,
that was perfect.
So, my favorite part about this
is the landscaping, because if I jump
off here, I instantly can fly up
and you guys know I had trouble using
the Elytra in the Mesa, cause it
was so flat, but now we've got
these little cliffs, and those are
custom, by the way.
They weren't there in the first place
um, but what's cool is, you know
walking out the door you've got
a nice little cliff.
And when you follow
the pathway you've got a nice
little ditch, where we've got our farm.
And it gives off a very, like, good vibe
of being in the woods
and I love that, uh, but yeah.
And then we've got another cliff here
also man made, and then
this river is man made.
I'm gonna be working on that
on our livestream soon, I think
but yeah, just showing you
we've got some cool stuff.
Oh, and of course custom trees
can't forget about those (laughs)
This has all been done in survival.
It's been, I've worked on this place now
for about two hours and I think
It's looking really, really good.
So, I'm very excited to see what we can do
with the actual project, which we're gonna
start today, so let's go ahead.
And without further ado, clear up
this area so we can start laying down the
foundation and building this cabin.
(Music)
All right, we are all ready and set to go.
I've got most of the resources we're gonna
need today, so now pretty much
we just gotta fly over there.
And as you can see it's very lacking
in the tree department (laughs)
but that's just fine, because what I'm
gonna do is cut down all of the trees
that kind of surround the entire build
and build those trees instead.
Not necessarily cut them down
but just kind of edit them.
It's a pretty hard process, so you're
never really gonna see it on camera,
but I do have a tutorial for building
these trees on my channel, uh
I may link that in the description below
just depending on if I remember.
But, yeah, we're gonna pretty much
have those as well as a mixture
of these all around the build.
Uh, so I'm not really worried about
the emptiness for now. (laughs)
Uh, but, lets go ahead and kinda
clean up some of these because
we don't really need them here.
Now, today's video, or episode
in particular is gonna be very
weird in terms of building.
Uh, we're not really gonna be
doing a huge part of it, but kind of
starting a huge part of it.
It's something that I'm
kind of envisioning and it's
nowhere near even the start
of the entire build it's, it's
kind of off to the side. (laughs)
But it's really what I think is gonna make
this area look cool, uh, but we're
gonna start here, and you can
kind of see I've laid everything out,
so let's go ahead and come over here,
and just kind of set up shop.
So, every time I go building,
I always make sure to bring
a crafting table and a furnace.
The furnace is kind of
unnecessary, but, you know,
I always just kind of bring that.
I didn't bring the bed this time,
like I should have, but that's just fine.
Alright, so we're gonna start by getting
some Oak wood, and we're gonna
build a huge amount of towers,
up essentially, uh, and then we've also
gotta come out five blocks from these
edges, I believe that's five. Yep.
And place blocks there as well,
so one, two, three, four, five
and then do one there.
Now these are gonna kinda tower up
on both sides, and then it's gonna have
a waterfall in the middle.
And that's kind of the main design
and I'm gonna love it. (laughs)
You guys should too, it's gonna be
really cool, it's gonna be an interesting
landscaping project, I know that.
Okay, so uh, we need to build these up
by five, so one, two, three, four, five
and we need to do one more
and do a diagonal block across.
That's not diagonal, just uh, what is it
vertical? No, that's horizontal right?
Yeah, horizontal. And just kind of carry
that along the entire framework, here.
(Music) Ahh, we just had barely enough
or we didn't have enough, basically.
AHH, that sucks. We can just come over
here and grab these though, but I was
really hoping, uh, but we're gonna go
ahead and add these extra little arms on
each side, uh, only the front facing
ones though, because I don't want
this area to look too crowded in.
I think it would just kinda look
a little weird, uh, if we did that.
So, hmm (laughs) how are we gonna do
this now? I guess we are gonna have to use
some dirt to kinda climb up here.
And then we'll just kinda chop it down and
continue from there, but we're
gonna build up and then we're just gonna
connect those out, just like that.
So now we've got a general foundation
uh, or, I guess framework of the area
we're working with, so we're really gonna
just be working on this part of the cabin
today, and then I'm gonna try and add in
a little bit of landscaping before we end
out the episode, just so you guys can see
exactly what I'm working with here
uh, in my mind. (laughs)
But let's go ahead and grab some
necessary materials, um, actually, hmm.
We're gonna just start by building
the facade on this particular wall.
I think that'll be the easiest thing to do
so, let's go ahead and grab some dirt,
so that way we can have just the general
block to, you know, build up with
and we're just gonna build it
to about there. Now, of course
this needs to come out as well, but
we're not gonna worry about that for now.
(clears throat) So, these need to go up,
let's see, one, two three, four, five, six
and then on the second from the top block
we're gonna do that. It's gonna be very
similar to the cabin, which you can't even
see because it's blocked off, uh, so
that's kinda, ya know, the idea here.
It's gonna be very similar, so you guys
have already seen this design, um
that needs to go up one more, I bet.
Yup, okay. (laughs)
Yeah, but you guys have already seen
this design, so it's nothing necessarily
special, but once we get kinda
further into it, it's gonna be
really, really cool.
So, now we're done with that.
Let's just grab some Spruce wood
stairs and Spruce wood, and this
is kind of one of the cooler ideas
of what we're gonna do, uh, so
what I have an idea for, is to
kind of create this balcony looking
thing, uh, out of this.
Let's go ahead and get these
torches out of here.
And just get some Spruce wood slabs,
and just kinda carry them,
you know, out like this.
And then we're gonna do something
very interesting on the top here.
So let me get that dirt again.
I'm all messy already.
I think I already had the dirt, I just,
no, I don't have the dirt. (laughs)
I don't know where things are going.
Uh, but we're gonna come up here
and do something kind of interesting.
So, we're gonna use a stair there,
except it's gonna face out, which I
probably can't do, unless we do that.
And then we're gonna do the same thing
inwards, but it's gonna kind of carry
across, like that. That I'm not even
gonna try cause I know I'd have to
break it. (laughs) So just like that,
and then the rest of these will just
go up like normal blocks.
Now, the level that the floor is gonna
be on, is going to be where
those stairs are, so, it's kind of
an odd design, but, what I like about it,
and let's see if we can't kind of
get far enough to where you guys can
get a good idea here.
Let's just crash into this tree. (laughs)
So, the idea is that it just looks like
it's really, really supported and then in
the end you're gonna be able to see
under it a little bit, and I think that
will look really cool.
Um, I don't know what's going on,
I'm getting a little bit of lag.
Hopefully it doesn't get too bad though.
(laughs) I think for now we can kind of
put up with it, uh but now we've basically
gotta fill this in, and I wanna
make sure that that is correct, in terms
of size, so one, two, three, yeah
it seems like its good.
Oh no! It's already getting dark,
so let's try and quickly fill this in
at least try and get up here first.
I need to just create a stairway.
I think that would probably be
the easiest thing to do. There we go.
Alright, so what we're gonna do is just
fill it all in, and then we're gonna carve
out everything we need for the particular
uh, face, so we're gonna do that
and then just carry it up like a
stairway design, all the way up,
til we meet a point.
So, just like that.
And then crash into the water. (laughs)
So, now we've got the general facade going
now we've basically just gotta decorate it
as well as throw on the roof.
Uh, but I'm gonna go ahead and sleep,
and then we'll go ahead and
throw that roof on.
Oh man, I wonder if we're gonna
be able to land right on the block,
like we need to. (Ugh)
Oh crap, we're not. (laughs)
I'm gonna have to go up and slowly
like, fall down onto it, cause I don't
wanna have to build anything up
to get to it, but man, I love
flying around this area.
It's so freaking cool.
And, come on (ugh) we did it.
Holy crap, (laughs), that was cool.
Alright, so now we can, uh, kinda
get continuing here, so we're just gonna
do the same exact design we've been doing
for the particular roofs, uh just kind of
carrying up, you know, the square
shape, and then just doing that
up there kind of, doing the same thing
all the way across.
Now, the easiest way to do it,
is to start with the bottom blocks because
then you can easily just build on it.
That way you don't have to go under it.
And I think that just saves some time, so
we're gonna do that, and then we're gonna
put a half slab there, but I don't
have any right now.
So now, uh, I kind of want to bring it out
a little bit more, as well, just so we
have a little bit of the roof showing.
And then on my own time, I'll go
and kind of fill this all in.
The roof is gonna be the most
boring part, until we add stuff
like windows coming out and all that.
Which I honestly don't even have
planned yet, so that might be a while.
Alright, so that kind of shows that
we've got the general roof design
we just need to add the point on
which I'll do here in a little bit.
Now, we need to get to decorating.
So, we're gonna get a few items here.
The first thing we're gonna do is make
some stairs, out of the...
What am I doing? That's not (laughs)
that's not how you do it.
We're just gonna make some stairs
out of Oak wood, and then we're gonna
make some half slabs, which I also
don't have enough for. There we go.
All the way across, and Boom.
Next, we're going to get some glass,
and then grass.
And, throw these fireworks away for now.
Alright, this is gonna be very different
(laughs) and I'd like to, uh, build
just a general building platform
I think that might be the easiest thing
and then we'll kinda build a
stairway up from there, I think
that's probably gonna be the most
efficient way to do this, that way if we
do fall down, we're able to get back up.
Okay, so, we're gonna build a window here
and then a window here.
And it's gonna be the same design on
the other ones, so I'll literally just
basically copy it from there.
And then we're gonna carry a line of grass
all the way across the bottom, and we're
gonna throw these stairs and
the half slabs on the bottom.
Now, I really should have brought the, uh,
the trap doors because I did need them
uh, but we can of course just jump down
cause we prepared for that.
First thing we're gonna do is throw a trap
door right on the top of the windows.
I kind of like it because it creates like
a little seal and you can shut it
if you want, it's kind of cool.
Nope, give me that back. There we go.
And we can close these in and just
kind of place them all the way across.
We're gonna have one extra, so now
if we kind of back away here
you can kinda see here it's
getting a little decorated now,
it's getting a little bit on there. (laughs)
Now, we're gonna grab that particular
block, and then these ladders
and we're gonna kind of, uh,
dress the window up.
So, with the ladders we're just gonna
basically do, like, some shutter
designs, just by doing that.
And then on the sides here, we're
gonna add some support beams using the
uh, the gates because I think it
looks good, I think it hold it up well and
it's just an interesting design. (laughs)
Uh, so now all we really would have to add
is the side, or the little grass and
leaves there and the flowers, but
I don't have any of those on me
at the moment, so we're not
gonna do that quite yet.
But let's kind of get a design here, uh
or back up and get a view, rather
not a design. (laughs)
Yeah, so it's looking very bland
at the moment, so what we're gonna do
to fix that is kinda carve
it in with some stairs.
I'm gonna go ahead and do that
and then I'll show you the design after.
(firework whooshing)
Alright, and just add on the point
and we should be good to go.
So, let's go ahead and get our
fireworks out, and go ahead and
go ahead and prepare to get a good view.
I'm very excited to show you guys
what it should look like.
Ohh, let's go ahead and turn around
don't get a, ya know, preview glimpse
just yet, let's crash-land into this tree
and make it kind of a good reveal here.
So, I'm just gonna kinda slowly zoom
up here, and there it is.
Oh man! That looks good.
You know what, let's get a lower
shot though, I think if we, uh
come down here and not die. (laughs)
Yeah, that's looking really good.
And once we have it, you know,
really detailed and we've got a lot
of leaves kind of surrounding it
and then a stone, you know,
foundation on the bottom,
then a waterfall, I think it'll look
really, really cool.
Uh, so I'm very excited to see
how this works.
Now, you'll notice the carving
that I did kind of resembles a,
uh, non-messy carving,
it just kind of goes up there.
I kind of like that design.
I might keep it, or I might kinda change
it up throughout each windowsill.
Let me know.
I think it would look a little bit
better if it were like that on each
just cause it adds a little bit
more detail and looks like it's
meant to be there, so, yeah. (laughs)
So anyways guys, I'm gonna go ahead
and get to building on this one
and try and get things set up
so that I can show you what my
ideas are for the next one.
So, uh, I'm gonna go ahead
and get started on that
and I will see you guys
in just one moment.
(whooshing sound)
The thing I'm looking forward to most
about this build is definitely
gonna be the atmospheric views.
Like, coming down this pathway
you can start to see the cabin,
and it's gonna be a little bit bigger,
so you can see it through the trees.
And once this is terraformed, I'm
gonna lower it just a little bit, so you
can see it a little bit more.
But then you're gonna walk through here.
I, I plan on having like a cool bridge
and you can see it even more
as you go and it's just
gonna look cooler and cooler.
Obviously, (laughs) we can't
see through that.
Gonna wrap around here I think
and then have a clear view.
Now, I don't know how we're gonna
get over there, like, with the pathway.
I'm thinking of just doing it that way
uh, but one thing I did have in mind
was to take this pathway, have it
bridge out, and then have it curve.
Go through here and then, cause this is
actually a little cool, little ca..
like, cave that actually goes all the way
across, and connects to the other side.
So, we could go through here and then
obviously I would fix it a little bit more
and then have it wrap around
all the way to the entrance.
I think that could be pretty cool.
Because a cabin is supposed to
feel lost away in the woods, but anyways,
I know what you're thinking.
"This is ugly, what did you do?" (laughs)
So, let me explain what I wanna do
and I'm gonna do that by going to our
favorite place ever, the trees. (laughs)
So, the idea here, and that's gonna
look a lot better, that's just a base
template to work with, so that way
I'm not having to place, you know,
invisible blocks, essentially
or air blocks, as I like to call them
where you basically just build
landscape out of nothing.
This is gonna allow me to
carve landscape, rather, which
is a little bit easier, but, uh (coughs)
this is the idea, so this is gonna be
one entire room, and then of course
that's gonna be a room.
Now the entire cabin is gonna be
a little bit bigger than this,
this doesn't really set much
in terms of the size and skelling, but uh,
or scaling, how do I, uh I can't
even say that properly, but uh,
then this is gonna be kind of like
an outdoor bridge kind of thing
that is gonna have an overhang.
I just need to figure out the rest
of the structure, so that's gonna be
really cool, but the main thing is this
waterfall, and this is gonna look
really good once it's all properly
landscaped, but the key feature
about it, and you'll notice the dirt
over there. Let's go ahead and fly
over there, so I can show you guys
kinda my idea. So, the idea is that
we're gonna have sugarcane up there
and we're gonna have it on an
automatic farm, so that, uh,
whenever it grows observer blocks
will push it, and then cause it to fall
down on hoppers, which are gonna be here
so we'll always be collecting sugarcane.
And I think that that's gonna look
really, really cool. (coughs)
And I don't know how in the world
I'm gonna get up here. (laughs)
I guess I'll just have to fly
like I have been.
At least this time we have a little
bit of a landing pad. Whoa! Too fast!
Okay, so, we're just gonna go that way
there we go. (laughs)
And I'm gonna have glass here
eventually, but you're gonna see
the sugarcane as you're walking
along, which is gonna be really cool.
Now, this area would be pretty noisy
if it was going constantly, but it
won't be, uh, so yeah.
It's gonna be a really cool project though
I'm really excited to see how this entire
cabin turns out. (fireworks whoosh)
Uh, now I know we did not really
get too much done today, I mean, it looks
pretty basic if you ask me, uh, but
I think it's, it's definitely got potential
and I'm very excited to see where
we take this. (firework whooshing)
Let's go through here, and, just to
kind of give you guys an idea of what
I mean by carving the landscape.
If I get some stone here, and just
kind of slowly build out, like, a shape
and kind of make it look less and less
like a, just, big stone block
it kind of starts to look more like
a proper foundation from the outside.
So, if I start kinda doing stuff like that
then, kind of back away a little bit
you'll see that it, it now looks like it's
part of some stone structure.
Build that one up a little bit, uh,
and then mix in some cobblestone
and like, look like, uh. (coughs)
Let's get this stone here, (laughs)
not drop any of our items, and just
grab some of these, uh, resources here
and just kind of build, like, uh, random
locations of stairs and half-slabs.
Now, obviously we can't do it too far
because this is where the water will be
uh, but just kind of have it to where
it mixes in and looks kind of
rubble-ish then it'll end up
looking really, really cool.
So, we'll do stuff like that, and then
of course get Cobblestone blocks
mixed with Andesite and, uh, kind of
mix it all in, and it's gonna look really
cool I think, once it's done.
I keep saying that, that's (laughs)
That's like the word of the day is, really
cool, um, but I'm very, very excited
and I think you guys should be too.
We're gonna be doing a lot of
livestreams, of course, from this area
cause we've got a lot of stuff to do.
But already, just from what I just did
we'll kind of take a peak to see
how it looks, and then I'm gonna
mix it in with some, uh, Mossy Cobble
and leaves, since it is down by water.
Look at that! It already looks better.
It already looks more detailed.
It's gonna be very, very cool I think.
And I think you guys should, (coughs)
be excited, I keep saying that.
I'm sorry, but it just, yeah, it's
I've got a lot of cool ideas in my mind.
Uh, but anyways guys, that is really
gonna do it for today.
I don't really have too much else
planned, and I've gotta go pick up
my girlfriend, she's at work.
And I'm crunched for time. (laughs)
Uh, so I look forward to the next episode.
Let me know if you guys have
any neat ideas, and uh, also
if you haven't already, please
make sure to check out Rise & Shine.
It is a series that I've just
started doing on my channel.
It's a game called Rise & Shine.
It's extremely fun and really funny,
uh, and not a lot of people are
watching it, so if you, if you're looking,
if you're bored and want something
to watch go watch Episode 2,
it's really really funny. (laughs) Um.
And yeah, let me know if you guys have
any ideas for the cool project and
just let me know, you know,
how your year is going so far. (laughs)
Uh, but anyways guys.
Thank you so much for watching.
My name, of course, has been SystemZee.
You guys have been awesome.
Thanks for watching.
