The start of my castle. Havent even planned anything out yes, just pushing it upwards, its taking forever.
>>135838102
You are quite the madman, good luck with that
also
>raw stone
>>135838867
Yea, I like it. Maybe next time Ill mine a few worlds and make a castle out of raw gold.
>>135839014
you could just turn that stone into slabs or bricks and mix them, what are you planning on placing there?
and what you against bling?
>>135839220
I like like the look of raw stone. Makes it look old. The real problem is no 2 brick wide doors. That I know of.
>>135839742
Maybe Ill have to make everything 3 wide.
>>135839742
Try not using only one kind of block, it just ends up not looking good.
What are some good magic weapons for expert fishron? all I have is a spectre staff, golden shower and magical harp.
>>135843886
Razorpine/blizzard staff, try the frost moon and get the weapon from the early spawns
Also, do the ayy lmaos for the UFO
>>135843886
The spectre staff is a great choice, especially since it's homing. Golden Shower is useful too: hit him with it once to inflict the ichor debuff, then switch to a higher-damage weapon.
>>135849826
Nice! Now someone should get khaios to recreate the ENTIRE cave system from the Goonies!
Servers up. Pre-Plantera characters.

Hey, kind of a newfag, what is the best way to make a storage system?
>>135859132
Chests by whats inside. Herbs in one, ores in another, weapons, tools, ect. Get different chests for different things, like all your fishing chests could be the sea chests.
>5 hours

just give up your dead general already fags
>>135831956
>come back to general 6 months later
>even deader than pre-1.3
>>135862024
The hype for 1.3 is what kept us going. Without the anticipation of a big update, there's not a lot to post about.
>>135859132
Store materials close to their related crafting stations. For instance, ores next to the furnace and anvil, potion ingredients next to the bottle or alchemy table. That way you can just open the chest and craft straight from there.
You can also paint chests to color-code them, which I find pretty useful. Green for plants, gray for stone, etc.
I remember when this general was a bustle of unconventional creations. Most were shit with some gems thrown in.
Now it's just the last 3 turbo autists left making pixel art out of painted blocks.
Fucking dead game.
I started a new character today, expert mode. I've killed the Eye and failed an attempt on the eater of worlds.
Anyway, the problem is that my base is a complete mess. At what point do you guys decided that it's time to build your "real" base? Tearing it all down and moving my chests seems like a major pain, and I don't have the building tools yet, but I think the build is only going to get harder as I get more stuff.
>>135868313
personally, just before hardmode
>>135868313
I never build a "real" base.
I try to keep my chests relatively organized.
Nothing else really matters.
>>135868313
My base is always a jumbled mess. I just try to keep everything in the same general area so it's all where I can easily access it. I build nicer houses for the NPCs around when I start hardmode, but my base is always butt ugly.
>>135854403
>not saving the one with the hobo sleeping on the bench
>>135868313
If you just want to survive, go commie blocks and a storage room with an optional battle tower for easy farming during bloodmoons/invasions.
If you want something pretty without being zerged by hardmode, transfer mats to a new world with a new char and keep it at pre-cthulu health with all your mobility items and fancy tools.
The builders workshop save can help with this unless you'd rather use only mats you've harvested yourself.
At the very least take some time to organize your storage. It only gets more painful as you progress.
I want to see what people do with >tmodconfig

>>135900945
Who stole the leaves?
>>135900997
TheTruffle did it
>>135900945
I like it.
I just got to Hard Mode for the first time. When I break the Alters, does the Ore just randomly pick spots to fill?
>>135905883
Yep, same RNG process as everything else. Gotta hunt it down with those Spelunker potions. Oh, and the more altars you break, the more ore appears. Just be careful: every broken altar randomly changes one tile somewhere in the world to corruption/crimson/hallow, which then spreads from that spot.
>>135905883
Don't break altars, just fish.
Let it go.
>>135920491
Fuck, that's disgusting. The originals were 1000 times better than that.
>>135923089

>>135923168
>>135923580
What the fuck happened to the shadows?
>>135924221
A bloodmoon had just started before I cap'd it. Maybe that's what your referring to?
The lack of creative mode hurts
>>135941574
There's always tEdit, at least.
>>135941757
Too bad I have GOG version
>>135942361
Does that version save world differently from the steam version?
>>135946517
Cute.
I kinda miss the lizardposting.
>>135942504
No, but lots of mods and tweaks require steam dll to function properly
>>135950802
tEdit isn't a mod. It's map editor.
>>135950910
I get missing textures. And people say it needs steam install. Gameiki mod needs steam version too.
>Spore sac in the dungeon
Why do people not use this again? one spore does almost 120 damage
How is the starbound compared to terraria btw?
Any legit criticisms?
>>135951395
It's shit. Pirate it and see for yourself.
>>135952973
Anon, I don't think 100k players in last 2 weeks vs 600k players in terraria is exactly shit. I just asked what the differences and for what to be prepared for.
>>135951395
It looks prettier and there's planets n' shit
Terraria wins in everthing else
>>135950802
If you happen to need it, pirate the steam version and place it in the appropiate folder
>C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Terraria
create any folder that doesn't exist, fuck all those faggots with muh "Steam only :^)" policy
>>135931101
No. You obviously converted the gif to png, but the png's shadows are fucked up.
>>135951181
The same thing happened to me, too. I simply had to move the installation directory to
C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\steamapps\common
Once I moved the terraria folder there, voila, textures appeared. That was back in 1.2.4.1, though. I assume it should still work now.
>>135954243
What part of "it's shit" don't you understand? The fucking game is 4 years overdue from it's initial release date, it's missing a shitton of features that were promised to us and you still require 4 GTX 980 Ti with 32 GB of RAM in order to run the game at a stable 60 fps.
The pillars would be alot more fun if this little shit wasn't around
>>135956732
Yeah yeah it's literally worst game ever, sure
>>135963247
Are you merely pretending to be retarded? If you're the faggot who asked what the game was like, then go fucking pirate it and see for yourself already.

>Starbound

was getting caught part of your plan?
thinking of starting a summoner expert playtrough with bows as my off-hand and some utility magic
how fun would it be? which points would be the most troublesome?
It's a pity that we have a limit of only 10000 pixels.
Expert mode sucked the fun out of Terraria for me desu.
>>135965084
>how fun would it be? which points would be the most troublesome?
If it's your thing, it'll be fun, with bows there's no point that would be extremely troublesome
Go away, tiy.
Why is Starbound so garbage?
Like, how did all of >>135956732 even happen?
>>135968730
Artists making a game, sure, it looks pretty but as a game, it's as deep as a flat rock
>>135963247
I've never played Starbound so I can't really speak to its quality, but going by user reviews is fucking dumb. People have terrible taste and will rate anything a 10/10.
>tfw when World has almost NO Crimson
>Except smack dab in the middle of the snow biome
And I'm 10 hours in this World. Fuck I'm mad. Also some near the Jungle but it's just next to it so I can always just build a hellevator.
>>135976134
Why does everybody get so mad at crimson corrupting the snow? you miss on nothing and can get the pigron mount
>>135976989
I guess you do have a point there, but I just don't like how it's literally in the middle of it. It's a total pain in the ass.
>>135976989
I used to be mad that the Crimson/Corruption would always fuck up my snow biome, until I had it completely fuck up my jungle. It's by far preferable to have the snow corrupted.
>>135976989
It looks ugly

Plebs. Corruption world, pre-Hardmode, Expert. FOUR (4) corrupt areas, 1 of which is is the Snow biome, TWO of which are in the jungle biome. Curiously, none in the Desert biome, when it usually infests the Underground Desert area for me.
>>135988879
Oh, forgot to mention it's a Large world. I'm masochistic like that.
I'm right before starting the Cultist fight but I'm bored as fuck because I don't want to do it yet
What else can I do familia?
>>135956335
actually, the ping is the original, only renamed. the lighting in there is a bit excessive though, even in game.
the rooms and furnishings are kinda off balance, so i guess i overcompensated by balancing the light levels.
symmetry is a terrible habit to break
>>135988879
Four is quite normal for large worlds
also, you are getting the V when entering hardmode, which will rape your jungle 50% of the time
>>135995147
Agreed, I've had that happen. I'll be quarantining the corrupt areas in the jungle, but I'll also have to dig a hellevator to try to at least preserve some of it in case it gets raped at hardmode generation time.
Post your archnemesis.
>>135998947
Hate those fuckers! I always find a high platform the moment I see them so I can snipe them from above. The javelin tossers are almost as annoying.
Took far too long to realize why I was only getting jungle keys. Pic related.
>>135998947
I hate those cunts too.
>>135999369
I don't get it. Shouldn't you be getting Corrupt and Snow keys as well?
Duke Fishron's my archnemesis. He's so damn fast that you have to spend extra time to get equipment that helps you dodge him, but he's also so strong that you need end-game weapons and armor to have even a chance at beating him.
He's killed my characters more often than I care to remember.
>>135999832
>he's also so strong that you need end-game weapons and armor to have even a chance at beating him
I wish I had videoanon's videos saved.
Whatever happened to that guy?
stuuuuuuuu i'm borrrrrrrred
bring up the server plsssssssss
>>135999618
I'm pretty sure that the hollow and the corrupt are canceling each other out, so at the very best I would be getting tundra keys and jungle keys.
Still haven't gotten a tundra key though, but I may just be impatient.
>>135999374
I miss GitGudAnon.
>>136000702
Pretty sure the corruption/crimson just override the hallow, so you should be able to get their keys.
>>135999832
>you need end-game weapons and armor to have even a chance at beating him.

I love the look of the glowing mushroom biome during a blood moon, the bright purple glow. What other items glow purple like that? I'd make my base out of the stuff but I hate those asshole bulb spitters with the wavy pollen shit.
>>136025996
maybe some endgame items that prevent mobs from spawning
>>135977349
What happens if the jungle gets corrupted? You can't get any more planteras or something?
>>136044542
It gets completely overwritten, so yes.
Takes forever for it to get to that point unless the evil spawns directly in the jungle or the stripe passes over it.
You know what this game could use? Moremimics.
>>136047734
I just want Shadow Mimics to drop something unique.
>>136047734
What it needs is something I call Mimic Run. A timed run through a large tunnel with mimics of various kinds spaced throughout. Doesn't matter if you kill 'em, just be fast. This would give people a reason to keep around movement-enhancing gear.
>>136049053
How would that even work in a game like Terraria? Seems like it strays too far from general play.
what do?
>>136051626
Embellish the shrine.
>>136052343
but i suck a building pretty things...
or is this like some builder hero moment?
This is terribly distressing. I'm no builder; I can barely keep the storage room sorted.
>>136053167
Turn to the wisdom of the ancients. Learn their techniques.Copy shamelessly from the fancy folder.
I seem to have met with a terrible fate...
It must be protected.
>>136044542
>What happens if the jungle gets corrupted? You can't get any more planteras or something?
There's that, and the fact that when you try to purify the corrupted jungle, the clentaminator turns it to dirt and regular grass, not mud and jungle grass. It's a huge pain in the ass.
>>136058130
I still don't understand why they didn't make variants of the jungle like almost every other biome. I want my virulent hellhole, damn it.
>>136029598
Progress is still going, slow but steady
Here, have a paladin armor
>>136056249
What's the bottom right one?
I need advice, been fucking forever since the last time i played Terraria but my strategies feel extremely slow paced and repetitive, i know there are tricks to skip stuff, things you can craft early ingame to not make your house look like shit, tricks to get certain NPCs faster, i can do better during hardmode but my pre-hardmode performance is beyond awful
in other words, i need some tips to spice up the game, no challenges and shit, more like small little things mostly related to building and progression most players seem to miss, actually good looking or useful items people forget, stuff like this, i bet you all have personal stories to share considering how much time you put into this game
>>136064823
One of the best strategies by far is getting some bombs, destroy a shadow orb and wait for a meteorite to fall.
Alternatively, fishing lets you skip several tiers of ore and can yield powerful tools and weapons for the early game/early hardmode, but it's boring as fuck.
>>136065853
I've been doing this for my past few runs. After playing expert, regular mode seems so much easier. My first day I usually gather a bunch of wood, run across some of the surface to find some chests, then near night I start building houses.
Next day I kill a few slimes, make some torches, and head down until I get some bombs. Make some sticky bombs, get to the crimson/corruption things and break two of the orbs.
>>136062486

If it's that extensive, the only choice is to get the Clentaminator and spam the green solution. You're going to need A LOT of cash for that, either spend time farming up at least 2 platinum, or cheese it and go to work with the clentaminating.

>>136060304
Is there a list of everything you've made that wasn't part of the forum page?
As I'm about to transition to Hardmode, I figure it'd be a good idea to move the bulk of my NPCs from my near spawn ground level town and transition them to a floating island type town 300 or so blocks up over some lowlands. This gets them up and away from danger, while letting me use the old town as an arena for various invasions without having to worry about NPC deaths.
But now I'm in a bit of a bind. This is about the extent of my creativity so I'm not even sure how I want to start building my floating island, once I finish the railway and connect the two. I'm not going to use an actual floating island, I know for starters. But laying the ground work is making me nervous.
>>136127171
i dunno man
make a boat-themed thing
make a blimp/balloon themed thing
make rockets to hold the island up
make everything out of slime
make the whole thing held up by background pillars
make the rooms into airplanes
make a space elevator to your town
make a magic circle to hold up your town
make your town in a sphere
make your town in a triangle
>>136128924
>make the whole thing held up by background pillars
That was one thing I'm sorta already doing.
>make a magic circle to hold up your town
I like this idea too though. Some sort of Magic Circle in the center of the town with the buildings radiating away from it. If I had any sort of talent I could make something like pic related.

So the lil cunter set is going to be actual armor or just a vanity set?
>>136133120
Plan is to give it some utility as armor, but armor features are nothing but brainstorming right now
Maybe we should let it die?
>>136140648
Why? Because we don't get 400 replies per hour like dsg does? /tg/ is doing fine, anon.

>Buckler: Early game, but limited knockback immunity
How would that work? Would it just be X% knockback reduction, or a chance to block knockback?
Is there a program that can open wavebank files on Windows 8?

Guys, I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I have Full Nebula armor with Lunar flare, Last prism, Nebula Aracnuem, And Nebula blaze with mage accessories+UFO mount. And I still can't come close to beating Douche Fishron. Any tips??
>>136153407
>end-game gear
>can't beat fishron
literally how
It might help if you don't use the UFO mount, though. It's slow, and mobility is pretty important for the fight. Also, use a dash accessory. Tabi/Master Ninja are great for dodging, but Shield of Cthulhu can trivialize Stage 3.

I just end up getting 3-shotted by him. Can't make it past his 2nd phase
>>136155268
You aren't supposed to be able to tank his attacks. Just practice dodging, you'll get the hang of it eventually.

What kind of potions should I use?
Is it a good idea to put my save on the cloud?
