What was beyond the Summer Skylands in last night's session of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD? A few things. Clean-up for the YouTube re-post is underway, but might be slowed by my needing to do other things today. Life and stuff.

What's beyond the Summer Skylands? We'll find out tonight as we continue our westward leg in the next session of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD. 11:15PM US Eastern (4:15AM UTC) at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn (World exploration in Minecraft 1.21.10 + Terralith, Structory, & Structory Towers datapacks)

Last night's stream has been lightly cleaned-up and annotated, and re-posted to YouTube. Is the modification to the guardian farm simple? Yes Will it be effective? Remains to be seen Will the wiki need clarification or correction? To be determined... www.youtube.com/watch?v=E5Vs...

Session 229 of HardCorn TOS is in the can. I made good progress covering the guardian farm. And I managed to remove the out-of-place source block in the central sluice, so the flow is nice and smooth now. Watch for the YouTube re-post some time Sunday. (Possibly delayed by family activities.)

My guardian farm may have room for improvement, if I'm interpreting the wiki correctly. Join me Saturday night at 11:15PM US Eastern (4:15AM UTC) for session 229 of HardCorn TOS in my Minecraft 1.17 forever world. www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn

It took a lot of precision mathematics to get this shot. Fortunately my computer was able to do it all for me. I just lined up the shot, then did some exposure adjustment and cropping afterward.

It's up, and sooner that YouTube estimated! Last night's stream of Session 45 of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD has now been lightly cleaned up and re-posted to YouTube. It was fun, and I got a new cat and horse!

Join me tonight as I continue the westward leg of my explorations of the biomes added to Minecraft by the Terralith data pack. I will also be looking for opportunities to gain enough levels to apply a couple enchantment books I'm sitting on. 11:15PM US Eastern (4:15AM UTC) at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn

Weird. I posted a video to YouTube a little bit ago, and the graphs for it are coming up with a period of over 55 years. 🤔

I might update my HardCorn Terralith NOMAD world to 1.21.10 soon. I just applied some modifications to the Fresh Animations resource packs, which were the last essentials I was waiting on. I'll need a little time testing it all out, so I won't be updating this weekend, but maybe next.

The LIMBO Session 3 re-post to YouTube is up. I beat my head against the wall a bit for some of the puzzles, and didn't get quite as far along as I'd hoped, but hopefully it will be more amusing then frustrating to watch me try.

Based on the progress I made in tonight's Limbo stream, I think I've got at least a couple sessions to go to complete the play-through. Next opportunities for those sessions should be in June and July per my holiday schedule, unless the fam does something else. 🤞

Bonus Stream! I have an extra day off work, so I'm doing a Pop-Up Gaming session, continuing my first playthrough of the horror game Limbo by Playdead. Watch at 11:15PM US Eastern time (4:15AM UTC) Mon Nov 10, on Twitch at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn YouTube re-post likely the next day.

I traversed some beautiful but difficult terrain during tonight's session of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD. This particular spot, with a grotto hidden behind a waterfall accessed from this pond through a cut in the mountain, would make a nice base, I think. Watch for the YouTube re-post tomorrow.

Another Sunday. Another YouTube re-post of Saturday night's session of HardCorn TOS. This time I farmed and installed a big load of sea lanterns, then worked on reconfiguring the windows of the Spire.

I was reading up on mob spawning to see how far down to extend the drop shaft to get max guardians, and learned they spawn a lot less in water exposed to the sky. So I guess I'm building a roof on the guardian farm next time I'm there. At least I've got lots of prismarine on hand. 👍

🏹 Minecraft question: Is there a command that can stick a bunch of random arrows in a player without causing damage? I want to include a shot in a video where I'm bristling with arrows, and I'm wondering if I can do it easily without skeletons or dispensers. Thanks!

Last night's HardCorn Terralith NOMAD session re-post to YouTube is up. I visited some cool new biomes, and pretty much saved the day all by my self.

Saturday night's HardCorn TOS stream re-post to YouTube. Grindy Grindy Grindy!

The first attempt to upload last night's HardCorn Terralith NOMAD session to YouTube failed, so I am re-attempting. 🤞

Apparently my opinion on spears vs guardian spikes is a controversial one. But I maintain that as the spikes are only active when protruding, and, unlike the Thorns enchantment, don't act when guardians are hit with ranged weapons, they are clearly not magical but physical. Therefore limited range.

Last night I got a first-offense warning from YouTube, due to a link in an old vid description going to dangerous content. The vid is nearly three years old and the link was legitimate at the time. It's a simple case of link rot. I don't think they should penalize for that at all, and I've appealed.

I wasn't sure tonight's stream of HardCorn TOS would start on time but it looks like it will. Join me 11:15PM-12:45AM US Eastern time (3:15-4:45AM UTC) in my Minecraft 1.17 forever world at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn

There it is! Session 42 of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD, in which I explore the world trying to visit all the biomes the Terralith data pack adds to Minecraft, has now been lightly cleaned up and re-posted to YouTube. Enjoy! www.youtube.com/watch?v=BXYb...

I'm back, and I should be streaming tonight (barring more mic problems). Join me tonight for session 42 of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD. 11:15PM US Eastern (3:15 AM UTC) at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn

No Twitch stream tonight, and no HardCorn TOS this weekend. We're having some family fun instead. Unfortunately, the Twitch app can't set vacation mode, and the website won't let me switch to desktop view to access it. So it shows a scheduled stream that won't happen.

Such a beautiful world, if a bit cold at times. Take a look at the sights I saw in the latest session of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD.

So I went after those blaze rods.

I've decided I need some blaze rods to make end rods. Join me tonight for the next session in my Minecraft 1.17 forever world, ep 224 of HardCorn TOS. 11:15 PM US Eastern time (3:15 AM UTC) at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn

It's finally done. Last night's stream of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD is up on YouTube. They're admittedly no guardians, but come see the fun I had with some pillagers. And the beautiful lands I crossed to find them. www.youtube.com/watch?v=o97j...

We had an appointment go a lot longer than anticipated today, so editing of last night's session of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD is being delayed a bit. I'll try to get it posted to YouTube this evening.

It looked friendlier on the outside.

Yay! The latest ep of HardCorn TOS is up on YouTube! And my mic appears to be still working since the mid-stream fix I had to do!

Well, tonight's livestream of HardCorn TOS Ep 223 could have gone better in a couple different ways. I'll be posting a cleaned-up re-post to YouTube tomorrow.

Session 39 of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD is in the can. I'm getting a few key things set up for the re-post edit, then it's off to bed...

The gently-edited re-post of last night's HardCorn TOS stream is now up on YouTube. I managed to do a little work on clearing some torch spam on the grounds this time.

Due to family activities, and updating at least one of the family computers to Windows 11 & configuring away some of its annoyances afterward, today's YouTube re-post of last night's HardCorn TOS will be a bit delayed.

The Silent Drowning resource pack to silence the popping breath bubbles in Minecraft has been updated to work without complaint in 1.21.9.

I tried to slip in a quick lunch-break update of my Silent Drowning datapack for Minecraft, but ran face-first into changes in 1.21.9's datapack meta file format. So the update will come later this afternoon. Meanwhile the version for 1.21.8 will work in 1.21.9.

By the way, I did get Ep 38 of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD re-posted on YouTube. It took a bit longer than usual, because I had to re-record the voice-over due to a goofed-up mic selection in OBS, due to either a Windows or OBS update since last session. www.youtube.com/watch?v=W55Y...

Big ol' OOPS tonight during the HardCorn Terralith NOMAD stream. My mic got un-selected somehow in OBS, and I didn't notice until after! So I plan to record a voice-over for the YouTube re-post tomorrow, which will delay it getting edited and posted. Sorry about that!

Join me tonight for session 38 of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD, as I continue the southward leg of my journey of discovery, attempting to visit all the biomes added by the Terralith terrain generation pack, or die trying. Tonight at 11:15PM US Eastern (3:15AM UTC) at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn

Cleaned up and re-posted to YouTube, it's Ep 221 of my Minecraft Forever World series: HardCorn: TOS. The guardian farm seems to be producing a bit more, and I made more progress decorating the Spire atrium.

I'm back! And it's time to return to my Minecraft 1.17 forever world. Join me Saturday night at 11:15PM US Eastern time for the live stream of Ep 221 of HardCorn TOS at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn. Gently cleaned re-post usually the next day on YouTube.

No new streams or YouTube re-posts this weekend. It's time for some family fun.

Yeah, I got up there. Or at least somewhere. Watch what I got up to in last night's HardCorn Terralith NOMAD session, now cleaned up and re-posted to YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=3QXz...

Can I get up there? Find out tonight in session 37 of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD, 11:15 PM US Eastern (3:15 AM UTC) at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn

I finished the guardian farm upgrade! Watch me in my moment of triumph in HardCorn TOS Ep 220. www.youtube.com/watch?v=bjkr...

While editing last weekend's HardCorn TOS stream for re-post to YouTube, I discovered I left some gaps that should have been glassed over. So join me at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn Saturday night at 11:15PM US Eastern (Sun 3:15AM UTC) and watch me try to fix them.

Likewise, here's the YouTube re-post of Sunday night's HardCorn Terralith NOMAD Ep 35. In this one I began the south-bound leg of my explorations. www.youtube.com/watch?v=u33Z...
