Here’s part 1 of furniture video for you:
This video covers the basics. I had this in mind when I first thought of this feature. As I was working on it I found that there are many cool things you can do with furniture. Wait for the next videos to see what I mean.
In the meantime I am working on the next big feature for the update.

Wow :D
WOW indeed! 😃 If I understand correctly, we can build an object up to 16×16 then whack it with the furniture hammer and instantly have a tiny copy of our object??!! I see LOTS of pixel art in my Survivalcraft future! And architectural details. And lovely furniture. And and and … 😄
I am already making a flat world with spacers for 16x16x16, so I can have objects ready to hit with the furniture hammer!!
Thank you so much Kaalus!!!!! 👍 👏 ☺️
We can create phones, laptops, toys, tv, and much more. Im excited
Oh yeah now u have me thinking…they look 3D in out hands as well…
Hmm what about gun powder? 8t would be awesome to make some c4 xD
Awesome congratulations Kaalus you’re amazing
Great work as always, kaalus.
Keep it up🍻
Only question is can we actually use it or is it for show? But I guess he’ll tell us later.
The bed looks like it would work. Kaalus has said electricity will work, also, so I see lots of different lights, lamps and torch styles.
*puking cubic rainbows*
This is Amazing!
BTW, I love the Redesigned Wooden Door and the New Marble Texture…
The door isn’t redesigned. If u think it is, you have been playing to much minecraft
Awesome, but will I have to build the chair or any furniture on any specific length, meaning by building blocks?
In the video it says 16×16
Very cool! It will be more usefull than some embeded furniture blocks!
Will we be able to sit in the chairs and sleep in beds
I assume since the materials carried their values over (like their flammability and paint ability) then it’ll depend on what the bed is.
But the chairs doe
You already can sleep on beds or almost anywhere in that matter.
Can I sit on it?
It is more helpful than a lot of embedded blocks of furniture!
Hmmmm :-)
Well…
I want to make an electronic display with this
Can it be done?
Wait…furniture out of lava?! Lava chairs would rock, but….how??
You can make a blacksmiths forge for example and have lava as a base
Still pumped for that survival mode feature, though as of late I’ve been a creative guy, using all the new painted materials
Fire….
No icons…
None of the site’s I checked have them..
However I think I am the first to capture a fire icon with a transparent. Background on camera and I have been working on things with it for a while now so if anyone has any way of get one on the wiki just comment
Justin – what do you mean? I’m admin at the wiki. We usually don’t get icons until Kaalus releases them, or someone takes the time to make them up.
Do you want to upload a pic there, or what? It’s really easy. If you want help, it’s best to respond to my wall there – I usually don’t check the comments here – they’re so often just ‘gimme-gimme-gimme!’.
The link: http://survivalcraftgame.wikia.com/wiki/Message_Wall:Stanimus
OK one sec I need to remake my fire icon, it was lost in a tragic accident :-D
OK their up :-D
Hello?
There up…
I hope you like them :-D
Ya, ya. Got it posted in the fire block page but I’m not sure where else it would be helpful…
Thanks. It looks good.
When’s the update is its soon
My favorite one will be statues.
OMG! This is going to be so awesome!
And how on earth do you make liquid structures?
I thick it’s more for stuff like aquariums and such
Maybe
Or fountains
Yes, if you build a container for the water or lava, you could do something like a fishbowl or a literal lava lamp!
If you placed liquid it would spread and stay that way after you shrunk it.
How does making furniture out of water and lava work
I am guessing making furniture out of lava was not his idea for the liquids. I am guessing he was simply thinking that we could make structures for architectural builds using liquids. For example you could make a glass type tower that had Lava or Water in it, and then shrink it to have a small tower with Lava/Water. I think he was simple saying Lava/Water was compatible with the whole shrinking process.
A glass block who contains Water or Magma should be good looking… I already like the idea
Cool so you can make lava lamps to put by your bed
Or maybe a portable lava heater, better than making a fire. Maybe functional for Adventures.
Yeah I like that as well. Congrats Kaalus.
“Vertical” Slabs, Glass panes, Glass Stairs and Slabs, Iron Stairs and Slabs, Bookshelves, blocks made from magma and basalt, Aquarium, Tables, Armchairs… The possibilities are endless… The Only limit is your fantasy!
And also… Toilets!? XD
?!! :-D
Why toilets when you could have an outhouse :-D
Vertical slabs are my fondest wish, for architecture.
Toilets would be great for decoration, so would sinks. Then the bathrooms would have some realism.
I can’t wait to make a laptop computer! To put on desks.
And the triangle limit
Next big feature… I don’t know if this is exciting or not. I mean of course it’ll be cool, but no furniture for a while… Still I can wait :)
I will be making a 2 part custom corn thing out on painted stuff so I can start a proper farm
Many a very complex apple tree :-D
Yay this is the best update ever and yet still has another big feature! I’m already going to start making furniture
Im so excited im going to make a whole tiny town
*does backflips* be sure to post it here so we can see it!!!
Woah! This is so much better than I expected.
I know he always said this was “mostly” a creative thing but I was looking forward to incorporating it into Cruel. Looks like the closest I could get is Challenging…make furniture in creative then switch to challenging. That’s too bad since I prefer cruel.
Cool for all you creative guys/gals though
Well he’s not finished let’s see what he brings, but I’m like you I think it may be just for creative now.
I wonder if more elaborate traps could be made? Like a bear trap?
Looks loke you’ll be able to use the furniture hammer in all gamemodes
You have to admit Kaalus, I nailed it quite well with my predictions on how it would be, even up to 16x16x16 as well as the different sets. Did you use any of our ideas while designing the feature? Congratulations on a job well done! I had one guy flame me seriously about my predictions. I’ll try not to gloat… I did not sse the liquid coming though. You got me there.
You were very accurate. Of the ideas that were out there, yours was always the most feasible ie. the one that did not require gigabytes and gigabytes of memory and terabytes of storage.
Thanks. I really did not mean to brag. I suppose I did a bit. Sorry about that.
Nah… No Worries Mr.Steyn
Yes. You were correct. I apologize for doubting.
No problem.
Very complicated for a chair don’t you think? Great work nonetheless. I would like to believe we are able to atleast sit in the chair/bed.
I think the part 2 will be furniture types.I know what I’m making if it is that…. a bunk bed!!!!
It dosent really have to be furniture does it? I’m thinking since you have to make a large thing, then it shrinks down… I’m thinking very detailed little stuff, I.e elf house or life size statues.
The complexity is limited to 300 triangles, but you could build parts of it and put it together at the end to make something complex like a house
Statues with motion detectors and signs and wires…that makes an immobile NPC!
(Non player companion XD)
This may sound dumb but can we place a chair on a side of a wall instead on on the ground? Like it will have a normal block placing ability…That way we could make large animal skulls etc. then shrink it down to place on walls.
You could use the UI to move the object to a side, then up.
Wait, wtf? Other big feature? WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
So theres another big feature for the 1.30 👍 i hope its for us Survival people .
I just realized, this means that whenever you download somebody elses world, you have no idea what they could’ve created since there are so many possibilities. Like setting the scene for a world just got so much easier, yah know? Badass.
There should be a button to automatically place the object in the middle of the block.
Am I the only one in the comments section who noticed the texture of marble changed?
Yeah you are! I’m gonna check again now.
Yessss custom blocks just like everykne was saying it would be! This has spool many more applications besides just furniture. Like paintings, or figurines, or mini trees, or other decorative stuff :D And remember that the blocks can apparently interact with electricity too, obviously we don’t know the specifics of that yet, but I can already think of many things you could do! This is even a feature MCPE doesnt have which makes things even better!
Checker Board!
Or a chess board with little pieces!
What if shrunken copper blocks act like wires
electricity is already being added into micro form
This is awesome!
I feel like if/when they game has multiplayer, it’s going to be more like a whole new virtual reality opening where you can meet new people and explore. Kinda like the game Second Life. Imagine the amount of metropolis worlds the game will have with the teamwork of many people working all at once. It sounds really cool.
I hope you’re postponing multiplayer for a while. It has tons of potential; but if you release something of the sort too soon it might become another Minecraft.
Yall right bro all players wanted that but Kaalus don’t ever respond to say anything else.
I agree. However, multiplayer would make this game pretty darn awesome. But it would prolly be good for him to keep updating the game with awesome features
Like my acorn logo in the background?
I put this together just today and it has come pretty far
What do you think?
Good!
Could I ask why… An acorn?
Well…
My Nick name is nut
My favorite nut just so happens to be the acorn :-D
Not only that but it looks good in the image
And thanks what could I do to improve?
Thanks for the Clarification!
And… Yes… It’s OK… No need of improvements…
Thanks :-D
Instead of signs we could draw actual blocky words :O
And we could make people look realistic :OO
This is incredibly cool.
How to use water to make a chair╮(╯_╰)╭╮(╯_╰)╭╮(╯_╰)╭
You could make a glass chair and fill it with water, you’d only need three blocks to hold water in glass-water-glass).
Is a standard SC block 16x16x16? I assumed so, then made a template world – looking forward to the furniture hammer! Maybe 4-8 templates, so I can make matching sets side by side. (pic below)
To make the templates, I’m making 17x17x17 boxes from materials Kaalus did NOT list as being available for furniture: windows (with wood, not just glass) and dispensers. The ground is dirt blocks, just as in Kaalus’ video. I marked the centers (blocks 8 and 9). I hope the Windows don’t count as glass, don’t want the templates becoming part of the furniture 😉
I made a bed, well under the maximum size. But what I don’t know is, how many triangles are involved in a 16x16x16? Kaalus said 300 max. I don’t know how to calculate that yet. My bed might be over 300?
(not sure how to post a pic here, forgive if double-posted)
This furniture update is going to be awesome for us speed builders! Next I’m going to make an electric lamp that can sit on a table.
1) Yes it’s is More than 300…
2) IIRC Kaalus said that “partial” blocks cannot be used for furniture, so I think that Slabs and Stairs cannot be used…
It doesn’t look more than 300, or at least not THAT complex
The bed isn’t over 300 blocks
Oh 300 triangles nvm then
u can count triangles by visible faces, each face takes two triangles
If it is too big, try cutting the building in half. One furniture item can be the left side and the other right.
Cut the bed in half, and in the furniture editing mode just move both pieces to the very edge, so then you can place it as two blocks and it will look like one, making it less complex
I just rewatched the video, its what kaalus did, he used two separate blocks
My 2 cents – finish help videos and release. Leave more features for next release.
Forgive me for my ignorance, but how do you count triangles in a build?
My ignorance as well! Hoping someone can explain it.
Same. How do you do that?
It’s very simple actually. You count the number of visible faces, and multiply by two. A face is any rectangular area of the same texture. So a 3*3*3 cube would have 12 faces, just like a single cube, (assuming Kaalus has maximized efficiency). However, an L shaped face, for example, is actually two faces, because faces must be rectangular.
Thank you for the explanation.
It would be call if we could make miniature electrical circuits
Can the furnitures be save in Dropbox or share in the community
That can be assumed. I think that is also why he gives the option for different sets.
Wow! You’re a genius! I’m so excited for the update
The next big thing can wait I say even if its multiplayer just think how long it would take if it is multiplayer and do you have idea of the release date
It’s prolly not multiplayer unfortunately
Hay anyone who wants to record memory bank codes for later use may I suggest this little template right here :-D
Tell me weather you would use it or not and if it is useful for remembering cool codes for in game electronics
I store mine in text files. Cut-and-paste in linear entry. Very simple, very fast. Graph paper is a LOT cheaper than printing, too if you want a physical copy.
OK, I see
That is much more efficient than this setup,
Honestly I don’t think I will use this much because I only ever use the first line in my builds
I want to ask you something…
Being that you document your codes, you must have some very important use for them…
Do happen to make music with them?
If you do make music I would love to here some of it :-D
Warning!!!
The chair he had 94 triangles before random painting!
After it had 170!
Mabe detailed paintings won’t be as, well, detailed as we might want…
With this triangle limit, we may not have as much freedom as we might need for an art museum like I was hoping
What really makes me sad is that I thought that triangles were purely because of the geometry limit, but instead it is much more complicated than just that…
You could just tile your image using multiple blocks.
If sharing, name with row/column info. Ex: (ASSUMING we can hang these above ground) a landscape picture of 2 blocks tall by 3 blocks wide, 6 items would be named:
Picr1c1
Picr1c2
Picr1c3
Picr2c1
Picr2c2
Picr2c3
A bit tedious, but could work!
How do you count triangles?
I know nothing about geometry but maybe the colored area’s are counted as separate faces
Would designs carry over between creative worlds?
Very likely, yes
I just want it like this now please please
Can you make the triangle limit more than 300. I ask this because when the chair wasn’t painted it had 94 triangles, when it was painted it had 170 triangles. So if the limit is 300 we might have less freedom to customize our furniture.
It’s awesome! Much more awesome than I expected! I can’t wait for the new update! But will it be possible to make a working TV? I remember Kaalus saying you would be able to use electricity, so it might be possible. Also, you might be able to connect two furniture blocks (assuming it’s made to be connected) to make the space 16x16x32, so it will be possible to make stuff like the bed in Minecraft. Guys, tell me If my ideas are good.
Have fun making a sensible image display on a huge TV though.
can you sit on the chair?
Likely not, don’t think even MCPC can do that.
No, most likely not. Reason: the game doesn’t know that the thing you just made is a chair.
My thoughts are it you will be able to. You select class (chair) and it has an animation of sitting on the chair at say half height. These we my thoughts
Really really nice!
“The collision box is automatically made to fit as much as possible.”
Does this mean your creation “expands to fit” and will always be the size of a full block? This means a cell phone using say just 1x2x4 would still come out giant, 1 whole block high? Half as tall as Phil (my name for our guy)?
Not whining just wondering. Sorry if this is a dup question.
If you make the “resolution” 16x16x16, then the object is you made would be small, but if you make the “resolution” lower, then it would come out giant, because if you make the “resolution” smaller than one block then the phone would be stretched to the size of a one block, at least that’s how I think it works.
No. I believe that he means the player collision box being able to collide with the furniture properly.
If you look at the video, when he walks over the chair, you can see that the collision box is more complex than just a box. Its probably like a mesh collision or similar.
The other answers are correct. The collision box is always different from the graphics, in any game. (For performance reasons.) But here it will actually be the same, so you could make ramps, much smoother than stairs.
Release date ? No need to promise, just tell us a date. :)
I mean give us a date.
Can furniture be thrown or can be interacted cause I’m making a pokeball and a bunch of things
After release maybe Kaalus could hold a contest showing off best build with this new feature for App Store video.
Very exiting! Could I make a glass bottle and potentially fill it with water or lava?
So, no gravel but sand? I’m working on a dwarves statue but I can’t make fancy chainmail.
Basalt or cobblestone
I like the new feature but I’m not really looking forward to it. Now if it have “technical” uses, that’s a different story. I like my electricity.
I have a question. If you made a red chair in one world, would you be able to put it in the folder and it would show up on another world? If this isn’t the case, I really think Kaalus should add that. It would be very efficient. Thanks a bunch for this awesome furniture thing! No more stair couches!!! 👍
Kaalus did say that he incorporated it into community content. That means you can upload and download it, so the answer is yes.
Wait, are you able to name furniture? That seems really annoying having everything called “Furniture”.
I agree, we need the possibility to rename furnitures
Wow i need test this please
It is cool man….But…Why do you think kaalus make hammer…Maybe he don’t want to update anymore…and make people stop wishing to add new things..I hope not….I love this Game…..
What? This doesn’t make any sense,why would he do that just because he added a hammer?
One of the coolest updates!!
Wait! Is there a limit on how many furnitures you can make and how many furnitures can exist in one world
Yes there will be, that is why he needed 32 bits.
Idk, the custom blocks should be just as easy to show as any 3d model or glass block. It doesn’t make too much sense to add a limit, especially on PC version
If there is a small limit to these things pee world it would be horrible. If there is a limit it will be per chunk, which is 16x16x A, a being the height of a chunk.
A limit per world doesn’t make sense and would ruin the new feature for me
I think you do not understand how this works. The performance of your device is not the reason for the limit, the bits are. The reason Kaalus needed 32 bit for this feature, was the very limit itself. Every block he created as well as every custom block you will create, needs an ID. That is why he has increased the amount of blocks you can have. He said that he was thinking of going for 512 or 1024 ID’s. There should be quite a few custom blocks that you can create.
He did however say that if you create furniture without saving it as an ID, the furniture disappear from the list. Maybe it means that it will still be where you have placed it, although I doubt it. For the engine to recreate the furniture, it must get the information somewhere. The only place I can see it can get it, is from the block ID’s. There has to be a limit, there is always a limit on anything.
The best update ever. I have one question. Can we make mini cannons out of this (dispenser). That would be the coolest thing ever!
That will be cool if we can use dispensers
No, it’s not in the list of materials.
Yes, but it also doesn’t include electrics. I suspect they might be included.
Maybe.
It’s as easy as a b c, survivalcraft is the game for me!
Don’t be a fool! Play survivalcraft after school!
Haha, I hope nobody here is a fool!
Once again Kaalus has gone silent. Just kidding!
I have 2 questions about the feature: 1. Once we have something in design and have the hammer (not creative mode) can we just make it with the resources taken from our inventory? It would be a pain to have to build the objects then shrink them … 2. Kaalus mentioned blocks retain their properties (such as color and water stays moving) So lava should make a good heat generator and sand should break away from the object? I guess the second question is how do these new structures interact with each other and their environment?
1. It seems the hammer is the SC form of Wonkavision, it shrinks things 🤓
2. since he said electrics are involved, I’m hoping lanterns can be made. imagine glass surrounding lava, glow stones or lightbulbs. not sure if the lava would generate heat, though, but perhaps burning coal would have both heat and light? I can see all sorts of lanterns, basic and electric. no more of that wicker block lantern.
This is so cool! I am so excited, its just… This is amazing! And what’s also amazing is how far Survivalcraft has come since having no armor ;P. I thought it was awesome then!
so any estimate to when the update is being released?
AAAAAAWESOME! I can’t wait for this update or just new good news! How many ideas about new things? So cool, it’ll work with electricity (really hope).
i have suggestion, kaalus. Can you make grass blocks craftable? Perhaps it could be done by placing a dirtblock and a piece of tall grass or tall grass seeds in the crafting grid? It would be very useful for building.
What happens when you make a block with let’s say coper and glass?
Will the block take on the properties of coper or glass?
Is there a dominant block property and a recessive one?
I am hoping that the blocks take on the properties of the stronger parts that they are made of; however, a chain is only as strong as it’s weakest link….
This worries me grately….
If some of my other predictions are correct, such as all furniture having a universal set of properties applied to all regardless of block make up, it would ruin all my plans for future use such as bullet proof windows with a coper frame to protect against explosion or things like that…
My suggestion to you is to make a dominant and recessive block property so that all furniture will have strengths and weaknesses that we can work with to build great things…
Please take this into consideration
At least we will be able to make glass panes.
I’ve noticed a MAJOR problem with bad and innapropriate worlds. I am starting to ignore them, but I still think something needs to be done for the sake of the little kids and SurvivalCraft itself.
Funny apple gets the right to publish worlds, immediately inappropriate worlds start blowing up out of nowhere
It’s getting ridiculous. There’s dog mating, horse mating, dragon mating, and human and animals mating. It’s disgusting and innapropriate. I hope Kaalus does something.
Wait wait wait wait wait, so does this work in survival, as well? If the answer is yes, minecraft might have to retire XD
Or add in a similar capability
Can you add books
Hi!
Will the update come out with new block texture?
And, can i “transfer” the stuffs what i made between worlds?
Like:
“A” world. Creative mode. Making a lot of stuff with furniture. Saving them.
“B” world. Creative/Cruel/Harmless mode. Do i have acces for the stuff what i made in “A” world?
BTW: that’s awesome. i can’t wait for the update
I think you can
How will it know which parts of a building to select? Like you make a chair and when you select it with the hammer, it picks up the dirt where the chair is standing or keeps out a few blocks.
Kaalus,when were the 1.30 release?And also can you add piston and sticky piston?That is a cool future for your game and it will be beautifull for all Block/Craft gamers!
This is going to be BIG. Mineccraft is still farting arond with crappy avatar DLC, while SurvivalCraft is innovating. It will be great if objects can be shared via the community download. I just want to know when its gonna be available!?’
Minecraft PC doesn’t have any DLC, texture packs and skins are free and customizable. The console version sucks, if that’s what you’re referring to.
Kaalus, why do you have to have limits I everything! World limit, creature limit, magnet limit, and now triangle limit. All devices and computers can handle different amounts of these things so I think it would be best if you removed these limits or at least increased them a lot.
These things are very memory intensive. Not all devices have 6G of Ram. Most devices still have less that 3G of RAM. This also takes a lot of processing power. Even my Note 3, although old, is still regarded as a powerful device and if II have a lot of complicated electronics, my game becomes sluggish. Most devices out there are still slower that the Note 3.
I would though like it if the height limit would be increased so that we can have higher mountains.
My iPad Air 2 always gets 60+ FPS on 256 block render distance, despite it only has 2GB of RAM. But hey, it has a triple core processor, unlike the iPad Pro.
You’re right, maybe the limits could only be increased on computer? But then again, MC:PE has no limits for worlds, creatures, or anything else which they could put a limit on, but don’t. The limit (for SC) could also be a slider in the options, which would be set automatically the first time you launched the game based on how much memory was available, but could then be changed later.
Limits will only be removed if you got 4GB ram and 16GB rom.Limits is enabled when your device is low.Because SC is a High HD game than minecraft thats why the slow phones have limits.
I got a note 3 too :D
Yeah yeah your right why Kaalus? Remove the limits! Our device can take this!!
I agree with the removal of the number of worlds limit.
It will be so laggy
No, it will just take up more storage space.
Kaalus what about if you add block pushers i mean it can push blocks and sticky pusher too yeah yeah i know it’s like a minecraft piston but its awesome if you add them too!:D who agree with me?
Please make a miner cart (≧∇≦)(≧∇≦)
Same
I have many worlds on survival craft like 27 now but had 50 lies you say nope glitch download a world before going to single player the worlds limit won’t be loaded yet and when it does it will say the number of worlds over 20
It won’t say over 20 but the number will be over 20 so like 21
I’m already working on model airplanes for the furniture
Thin glass is now possible, you can make windows that aren’t one meter thick. Detailed blocks for models. You can even make walls that are a few pixels thick instead of one meter. This means that building will be so much more customized. This can be used in survival in the age old tradition of house building. I am glad about the one pixel thick glass possibility. It would be amazing if we could make pipes for item sorting
I’m thinking about two-pane glass with a layer of magma between them…
That idea is mind-blowing!
I wonder if magma keeps its properties when shrunk. I can’t expect that because of the difficulties but it would be pretty cool. Might overheat my desert houses though
Yeah, but remember that you should make separately at least 4 Kind of Glass Panes:
1) – (Line) Shape
2) L Shape
3) T Shape
4) + (Plus) Shape
I hear there will be a limit to how much furniture can be in a world similar to how there is a limit on how much animals can be spawned, I don’t think you can make and whole wall for a house but its a nice thought.
Well, we haven’t seen a limit, and animals really have no comparison. Kaalus hasn’t mentioned it iirc.
But uts basically adding a new block to the game, the problem most likely would bee the amount of triangles needed and that means less fps if you place too many, but most partial blocks are like that as well. Making a vertical slab shouldn’t do anything more to the FPS than a normal slab, its the same amount of triangles.
MAKE IT AVAILABLE FOR DEBIAN (LINUX) VIA apt-get
+1
Please add reptiles
I’m not sure he’d be able to do really small ones, probably the reason he kept with medium-sized to large birds, but I would like the idea of reptiles the size of gila monsters all the way to the size of a restricting snake.
Right. Also, crocodiles would be rather good
He usually adds an animal with each update, so we’ll see
Aaaaaaaaaand…where’s part 2?
I recreated an old image of mine,
Now I would love to here your opinion on it, your suggestions for it, and I would love to know if anyone here is ambitious enough to make a pixel art version in game for this to put into a future art museum :-D
I hope the last part is not impossible to do in game :-P
Looks good! I don’t see anything you need to fix.
Indeed, everything OK on this pic 👌
the feels man…the feels :(
i should save this, you never know we might need it a couple decades from now.
Thanks :-D
Who is the thing about? The old survivalcraft guy?
Very good question!
I have been dieing for someone to ask me :-D
Honestly it was made for no one in particular; however, it was an amazing idea of mine that quickly manifested itself within my heart, to create a character that people would recognize as a man who lost his one and only love, and all he can do is pay his respects now
He has yet to be given a name…
I want to have his name be something connected to words meaning sadness, regret, and pure quandary …
I want my character to be somehow iconic of Survivalcraft but I have no way of getting this on the internet for all to see
Other than having it on their site for a couple of days… or weeks…. before special K posts again
After that happens, it is likely forgotten about by those who happened to see it on this site…
Can you help me find a name?
I also am working on finding a good song made in sc that I can use for another project :-D
In case you are wondering I am not depressed, if anything, very very very happy to see the feedback that I get for my art
So about the name? :-D
Here’s what I would like to see for 1.31:
Backpacks!!
An extra 16 inventory slots when put on your torso armour slot. Made from leather, cloth and string.
However, the more item that are in the bag the slower you become.
Eg.
25% full (4/16 slots)= -5% speed
50% full (8/16 slots)= -7% speed
75% full (12/16 slots)= -10% speed
100% full (all 16 slots)= -13% speed
All varieties are added the your armor weight as well, so you can get pretty slow.
Thumbs up to my idea?
Honestly I’d like to have only the hotbar untill you craft a backpack, at least for cruel mode
Yeah but then you couldn’t hold much in the first place.
Yeah I think you should have to craft different size backpacks to get more slots starting out with just the hotbar
.. Can we have breeding one day?? It’s the only reason I still use Minecraft…
Wow! I can sped 5 seconds feeding two fake animals and a smaller one appears! So fun! I could spend hours doing this! Screw playing survivalcraft! This is way too fun! Clicking two buttons is the best experience in tbe world. I should go drink some bleach!
Minecraft PC is better than SC, with Pocket Edition catching up. No doubt that SC is better than Minecraft Console Edition, that version sucks.
Better is always very relative. Technically speaking MC has way more features. For me, SC is better because of the realism. I do not like fairytales and monsters, spells and incantations. If anybody likes all this evil stuff, they must go ahead. For me, I do not like it at all. Except for the werewolves, SC is very realistic. I know that you can get mods to do the same (I think), but just the fact that my kids can access the rubish, is a no no for me.
Our hero!
Hmmmm…….
One sec…
Ok! Much better!
Sorry for asking, but how do you enable spilt touch ( that cross on the screen) in sc😖
Settings > Controls > Look Control Mode
thanks!!
Hey guys. I’ve created a wonderful adventure maze. I’ve created a huge pyramid. Inside it is a very complicated maze. I think this is the biggest challenge as a maze. It will guys you. Be careful there are dangers. If you want, enter using creative mode to see the pyramid. Please also see the rest of my world, it is huge.
The World name is Amazin Maze Pyramid. Find it on community content. Please give it a good rating. Also check out my texture and rate it as well.
I didn’t find the world, try posting a link in the comments
I saw that it only became available a day or so later. You can also find it in the world: Logic City.
I am still refining it, but I do believe that this maze is really something. You break it up in creative to see what I have done.
I have a question. Every time I try to publish a world then it says (BadRequest400). Any ideas?
When you copy the Link from Dropbox, probably the last number of the Link is a 0 (Zero)…
Try to change it with a “1”… I don’t guarantee that it works… But try it…
Hi everyone
i want to build the whole city of rapture (underwater city). And there are many windows to see whats going on on the ground of the sea. Now i have two questions. Is it possible to overwork the water in survivalcraft. If you build a glasswall (window) there is always this: http://i.imgur.com/Z6fY1ZV.jpg or this http://imgur.com/7brpDoX Now i want to ask if you can make that its clear water not a waterfall :D We could not see outside. And another thing is the “waterdistance” you only can see few blocks in front of you but in real life you cloud see wider. I think you should add a feature in the menu that defines the “waterseedistance”. And my second question is can we place furniture in the water? Have a nice day! smak15
oh i failed to post a picture -__-
Is it possible to overwork the water in sc? Everytime i set a glassblock in my underwatercity it makes an “waterfall” and i cant see out. That would be really cool if you can fix that.
That’s just survivalcraft physics. I guess the only way to prevent it to use a different blocks texture or something similar…

Sorry I clicked twice 😢
Did anyone else notice marble can be broken from a gun shot?
Yeah… Is a well known fact… Marble can be broken with Spears, Bricks, Snowballs, Fireworks, Arrows Bolts etc etc… Same for Malachite…
Could you imagine factions or SMP or survival games on sc? That would really be something…
This has such big potential, You could make different sections of a bigger object like a fish tank and place them all together. Creating a 2×2 detailed fishtank with water inside!
Kaalus where is the update? Also….Mojang released MCPE 0.15.0 BETA?
246th. 😐
Dang MCPE 0.15.0 is really good watch out Kaalus
Not as good as making custom flipping furniture!
Except for that you can mod MC:PE to not only add custom blocks, but also mobs and tools and dimensions and crafting recipes and and and…
Yes but any MCPE mod could be a virus. There is no way to secrete malware in furniture in SC. If ultimate moddability is what you really care about, play Minecraft Pi Edition. It has a built in API for Python (I think it also has one for C and Java). I modified someone else’s natural disasters script. It used to be just earthquake, sinkhole, meteor, meteor shower, tsunami, geyser and heatwave. I added blizzard, flood, lighting, huge meteor, thunderstorm, sandstorm and tornado (I think, I have probably missed something). Someone made an animation of a scene from Star Wars. Oh, yes, and it’s free. If you want a safe, mostly unmodifiable, fun game: choose SC.
Survivalcraft has a few mods
If installed using Forge (PC) or BlockLauncher (PE), mods are gauranteed not to have viri (more than 1virus). Mods installed any other way are different though, a lot of the time people will make a “Minecraft Better Dogs Mod” app on play store that is actually a virus.
Hey can anyone give me a link to mcpe 15.0 beta ( don’t think I am betraying😛just heard its loaded with features)
I think on June 12 mcpe 15.0 will be on paystore
*playstore
I have a suggestion. We have rare animals of the sea and land, but no rare creatures of the skies. I was thinking Kaalus could add pegasi, dragons, and/or hippogriffs.
…
I enjoy the fact that this is the only Christian friendly block game on the app store, however, putting such satanic creatures into it would ruin that for me and many others,
My suggestion: albino Ravins ;-)
Aka the humble seagull
Or even a parrot that tends to follow you around but doesn’t lay eggs and doesn’t do anything helpful to you :-)
How about eagles
Agreed.
Eagles could fly near the height limit, aka cloud height, and dive bomb other animals, like a 1 shot kill…
And can steal food on the ground
What is Satanic about those 3?
Seriously, help me out here.
Same. I think they’re cool!
But if I can’t have mystical creatures, I’m all for an eagle. Or if he added a hawk I wouldn’t be against that.
Sir you seem to be forgetting the fact that theres werewolves in survivalcraft
No mystic stuff. Ever.
If there is mystic stuff it would really ruin the game for me
100% agree. Even the werewolves are too much for me. I think he is missing the point of SC, it is realistic, whereas MC is for people who love fairies and stuff.
I’m a girl.
I was wondering about that when I typed, but always typing he or she is just a bit tedious, especially on a cellphone, so I just used “he.”
If Kaalus adds any more rare creatures, they need to have spawn eggs, and so do the previous creatures.
When is 1.30 available? In december?
When is 1.30 out???? -_-
Gagagahahajs
Dammit
When is the update out? January 2017?
Did you say MULTIPLAYER??? Finally!!! Awesome!!!
Wow! Can’t Wait!
OMG HURRY UP IM TOO EXCITED
Wow. This feature sure will bring sc to whole new level. I wonder what minecrafter say about this. Anyway, I want to make a giant fish tank with whales in it. I wonder, is it gonna possible ?
Minecrafters, like me, will say “Well, we have command blocks and mods, we can create as much furniture as we want, and we don’t have any limits for what we can make!”
Except this is simpler to make and create command blocks can be a real pain sometimes…
Something that I have always wanted was Handheld Torches. Like a torch that you hold that provides light as you walk around so that you don’t need to place Torches in order to gain some light.
That could lead to some really interesting maps actually, besides being generally really useful
Maybe, not in theme, buut, WHERE IS MALACHITE??? Can’t find it in caves, Kaalus. I flew over the world looking for caves in creative. Some caves are very difficult to explore now and have very little resources. I CAN’T FIND MALACHITE. It’s harder and less interesting to play after latest update, because CAVES.
Also there is incorrect lava physics in caves.
I have seen lava right next to water, without stone forming. Quite strange.
I’m talking about this. There are problems in lava generating, actually with new x16 underground lava update. Do Kaalus thinks about fixing this?
I have played many hours in one game and I only found 9 pieces of iron and I think 15 pieces of germanium. I did however find quite a bit of copper. But yes, resources are now a bit too scarce. I found zero diamons. I dug plenty of tunnels and explored a huge cave, yet found very little resources. At least I had a lot stone etc.
Muskets are way too expensive with the lack of iron.
Two iron blocks for 40 shots doesn’t seem fair to me
you’re right, iron is hard quite scarce, it would be cool if Kaalus added deserts and red sand, and a sand filter tool
Malachite is now found in the granite layer. And the shade of green with the shade of granite gray makes it hard for some people to spot. I’ve heard it has to do with colorblindness. I can see it fine, if I look closer.
Just download another texture pack. I use Johan Real HD, which is of cocourse the one I’ve created.
Now I can’t wait for the update.I’d probably start a new world as mine is is still in 1.27 stages.
When will this come out
Ok I am really exited for this wallpaper I have just created :-D
I hope all of you sc fans love it as much as I do
And I hope you all actually use it
One question though,
How do I upload this to the internet for all to see ?
Wow this looks really cool, I’ll use it as my cover photo on Facebook.
You can search for a survival craft tumblr and post it, or you can upload it to imgur.com, tinypic.com etc. Nice job!
Thanks:-D
Any ideas for future wallpapers?
I am running out :-)
Hey Kaalus in the next update can you make it so people can make mods and upload them to community content then other people can download them and add them in worlds? Just a thought…..
Are we on the crest of Survivalcraft v2.0? One could imagine if Kaalus populates numerous simple prebuilt items that this effectively upgrades the graphics. That combined with potential “microcircuity” and whatever else he has in store for us.
Er I’m slightly colorblind, (yeah I can still see all the colours) but it’s sometimes hard to spot malachite in the granite…especially from a distance or in low lighting. Maybe a texture change? For now I prefer texture packs that make it easier to spot.
With Johan Real HD the minerals are very easy to spot.
I’m going to try yours :) My fave so far is Fanver Fancy
Enjoy. If there are any changes you want me to make to help with visibility or whayever, please let me know.
Hi!
I have a request:
Make the “dispenser” same to the “chest”.
I can’t throw anything into it (dispenser).
I can throw anything into the chest, but i can’t do it with dispenser.
So, if You do this, i can build a lamp like this:
I will build it 4 dispensers. Let call it “4dispenserlamp”
1st dispenser shots to 2nd dispenser and
2nd dispenser shots to 3rd dispenser and
3rd dispenser shots to 4th dispenser and
4th dispenser shots to 1st dispenser.
The “bullet” are made from glass and lava.
I hope, when it shots out from dispenser, it will light. Because now, when you shots “wicker lamp” it not light.
Or made from “lightbulb”, “switch”, “electric wire” and “wire through semiconductor”.
Or made from “4dispenserlamp” what made with furniture, so it will be 1 block small, and shots continous, and lights. So if the “4dispenserlamp” shots “4dispenserlamp” it will looks like umm…. i don’t know….
[i hope you understand, what i want to tell]
[excuse me for language faults]
So,
Please, do this.
Thank You!
Tesla would be proud :)
I agree, dispensers should suck up items, and also, nice lamp idea.
Who of you still uses the default texture pack or just minicraft texture. It seems stabs to me that people find the default texture pack as sufficient. It so plain.
I use the Textures made by Myself, why I shouldn’t? XD
There was an autocorrect typing error, “stabs” should be “strange.” Anyway, Drake as far as I know, you made the MC texture pack. You are free to use it, I just don’t like the default textures and MC is also very “default.” I am just trying to understand why people like the default textures, especially the SC one. The default texture is really very low quality. Why has Kaalus never tried to upgrade the quality on it? Is it because he wants it to look very similar to MC?
He made the block quality higher in 1.25. Any more might either take up more storage space or FPS drops (less likely)
I prefer the default texture. I like the simplicity of it. I honestly think most other texture packs are ugly because they are way too complex. In the default texture everything just fits together.
Do you believe that I don’t like the MC Default Texture Pack for myself? I just do it simply because a lot of people use it and I think that is perfect for kids or for people who like both SC and MC…
And about the Quality of the Default Texture, I want to remind that Before 1.25~1.26 the Resolution of the Default Texture was the same of MC…
This was the Reply of the 123rd comment…
Wait what
Thanks. I think I began with 1.24. I think you did mention that about MC texture before. What texture is your favourite?
Drake Ultimate 1.29
That’s the Texture that I use more often…
But I also liked John Smith texture unfortunate seems that is outdated…
I mean back then I even noticed that the game got slower compared to 1.24 (in my case.) I was forced to go from 128 block view distance to 96 block view distance, to keep 60 FPS.
I hope this works. 👍🏼
This is before 1.25-1.26
This is after 1.26.
Eh sort of worked.
That grass in first pic is so old haha that was from 1.21, in 1.22 the grass was changed. Brings back good memories lol
Assuming you are talking about the tall grass thoughю
lol I guess so xD
But*
By notice how the there are much more pixels on the blocks on the second pic compared to the first.
Yeah, looks a lot nicer!
Hey guys! Today, I have made a discovery! Here it goes, SurvivalCraft’s stone texture is a modified Faithful32 stone texture, next, SurvivalCraft’s cobblestone texture is a flipped horizontally and modified Faithful32 cobblestone texture, next, SurvivalCraft’s stone brick texture is a modified Faithful32 stone brick texture, next, SurvivalCraft’s bricks texture is a switched-around and modified Faithful32 bricks texture, lastly, Survivalcraft’s bottom-half of the wooden door texture is a modified Faithful32 bottom-half wooden door texture.
Don’t misunderstood similar textures with “stolen” textures…
Yeah, I know, your references are accurate, but I don’t think that Kaalus have supposedly copied/edited Faithful texture
If you copy then paste the Faithful32 textures into the SurvivalCraft ones, the lighting and shadows fit, so Kaalus probably intentionally did it, I’m not saying that Kaalus is bad, but I think what he did is wrong.
No kaalus made the texture, in some posts he even changes the textures of a few items
Can SC texture packs support furniture designs in 1.30? 🤔
Most likely, the furniture will probably have the texture of the materials its made of.
2016 – the year of VR – I’ve closely followed VR sites and news about virtual reality and AR(argumentative reality) and I don’t believe 2016 will be the biggest year for VR. It is certainly a good year for HMDs but not VR as a whole, I’m thinking it is coming soon though and that is isn’t just a dream. Survival Craft is an AWESOME single player game.. This alone ported into VR would be a hit… but you have a “once in a life time chance” kaalus. (I’m not saying give up on mobile/reg versions). But if you took your time NOW to develop survival craft VR and release it in a few years and (PROPERly) make a VR WORLD platform in real VR …. it will be unimaginable.
I’m a huge minecraft player. I love minecraft, and when I heard minecraft for VR was coming in the near-ish future I was sooo excited. But my dreams aren’t satisfied. Minecraft VR from what I know isn’t what I wan’t in a VR experience. Ya I’d prefer to play with a HMD as a screen compared to a moditer… but it is still just a screen. Currently with the Minecraft Gear VR that is ported from pocket/win10 edition you need to use a controller to use most features. I’m not saying don’t do this, I’m just saying don’t encourage it. I think you’ll understand better if I explain my recent dream of survival craft in vr.
When I’m out of High School I already know I want to get involved with VR. My current dream vr hardware(together) is Fove(witch I have a strange fondness over more then the StarVR for reasons hard to explain) or Star VR (That also has a wider view angle). Then I’m a Huge Fan if the Tesla suit <3 (witch basically makes you feel the presence of a virtual object to an extent + has heat/cooling systems so you can feel it to an extent). Then I'd also like basic sensors/trackers at/around main body parts/joints. A vr treadmill that's either KAT walk or Siberous Virtualizer (sorry for spelling,this is all coming from my head), and something like the dexma(stops finger joints when holding virtual objects but I'd like a more compact way to hold all major joints). This hardware combined could give you a very high immersive gameplay that makes you feel inside the virtual world better than anything before. I wouldn't even mind spending $5,000 (USD) on all the hardware to immerse myself into a virtual world whenever i want. This is the 21st sentry and currently I'm disgusted with the world. I live in america and even our history isn't anything to be proud of… How many Americans do you think would say the are disgusted about there own country(I could go on and on but i'll stop here). This might just be me but 50% of the time I see some cool invention or company I'm interested in it is from California or Idaho. Even the old California's governor was cool, read this post: http://www.newsweek.com/arnold-schwarzenegger-doesnt-give-damn-if-you-dont-believe-climate-change-402243 When I first saw his fb post on this issue I never before payed attention to climate change/global worming, I knew it existed but never payed attention. Now after opening my eyes more and after stumbling apon a series of articles I'm disgusted in the world. Instead of going on and on I'm deciding to stop here as this is not what this post is about. Anyhow I see vr as a good leap, and I really want survival craft to be apart of it.
Above I mentioned a lot of vr hardware and with them put together you could have a really clean vr experience. I'd like support for as much vr hardware as possible, but, I don't know about you but I'd like to play in vr without using a hand held controller. If you ever listen to this(mine) 15 year old's dreams, I'd like for you to use something like software+hardware verification codes. I'm not against letting people with lower end hardware play. Some people just can't afford it, but it would be nice for server owners to block unverified hardware and software, Or limit it to only verified HMDs or if there is a verified hardware/software then ended up having critical bugs in the current version that might effect the server or its gameplay so they might block it for some time. This could be useful to stop a good portion of hackers and even limit gameplay to someone who wants all players to have a more realistic vr experience in there world. Maybe a sports/minigame based server wants all there members to at least have treadmill so they can legitimately get tired or something. I'd also like to see benefits for certain hardware like maybe being able to control how your arms move or have better speed/crouch control for supported hardware!
A lot can be done with bukkit mincraft servers. Survival Craft can become a fabulous, famous, creative platform. Personally I'm a huge Fan of Foveated Rendering and eye tracking in vr. There are two main companies/future headsets with this possibility, Fove, and StarVR. I honestly think VR should steer away from what the industry it is becoming now. Anyhow, I know this is asking a lot but multiplayer + VR + Creative Building game= Worthwhile VR experience. There can be whole world Generated in VR, let me repeat VIRTUAL REALITY. If People could host there own servers with a way to slightly modify some of the game attributes similar to plugins in minecraft they could create there own worlds and have it easily accessible to people across the county or even the world in there OWN virtual world. (keep in mind I'm a vanilla minecraft fan, I'm slightly disgusted in what bukkit has done to the minecraft community).It is unimaginable what the community could do. But a free access to change a little bit of how the game works in a virtual world to share with others is something I couldn't ask anyone to pass up. It'd be nice if you were to add something like bukkit for survival craft servers if you ever accept this idea. I know some might want the game to stick to the original game. To an extent I want that too. But survival craft as an online platform and make it so you can spawn somewhere and fight in a prehistoric war with a team untill death. and be able to reset it so you can play again with everything it was like before the battle. Or make it so there is a series of quests you can follow in a player created, multiplayer rpg world. Or add in an economy/money system into a world… I'd really want something like that in vr, If you have that chance to give the community that, I'd say do it!
VR in a regular single player world can be fun too. I don't want it to seem as if I lost track of what the original game is supposed to be. Some benefits for using vr hardware in regular SC might include a different tiring system/none at all. The current treadmills that are popular let you actually walk around. Some even jump. I think it would be cool to let players run freely to there own extremes while using these types of VR hardware. Also with eye tracking, you could punch blocks you are looking at instead of where your head is pointing. Or have a vr glove that places/mines block to a more realistic feel. If your all suited up with vr hardware, you could move your virtual limbs freely (this would be cool in the zoomed out mode). Swings swords at a realistic speed, load ammo to weapons quicker(ish), or even throw a spear at a rate that doesn't go full speed/ as far as clicking somewhere on a screen would automatically send it … Imagine the possibilities.
Never saw such a long post.
IKR
I didn’t read the whole comment/post because it was very long(even longer than the main post), but is virtual realit (vr) a kind of console?
Virtual Reality isn’t a console but it does usually require a decent pc (computer). Virtual Reality is usually accessed by buying a Head mounted display that immerses yourself into the virtual world. (you can see and look around in a place that isn’t really there, with new technology you can even walk around and sense where your body limbs are!)
This post is SOOOOO off-topic. And it’s “AUGMENTED reality”, FYI, not argumentative – LOL! Look up that word…
I’m sorry I made a mistake. My spelling isn’t the best and I kind of always assumed it was said that way as I never did really pay attention to augmented reality compared to virtual reality (i can see now my mistake and I thank you for correcting me as I’d of continued to think of it that way if you didn’t), atm there is only one famous HMD / hardware for AR and that is the holo lens and although it is interesting, that is even more off-topic then this post. I’d also like to point out that this whole post is about virtual reality and I only mentioned AR once or twice. :)
Bah. Global warming is so fake.
Could we have more edible plants in SC? I mean to survive eating meat is essential…
I mean you can make a bread farm, but that requires a lot of effort.
For me, a riy farm is essential to my Survival.
I actually enjoy making an automated farm, each one is its own model, with It comes it’s own challenges.
They range from symple lighting errors to complex multi system failure
It’s fun making them :-)
Kaalus come on. Post something because Hype train slowing down. :)
everyone since kaalus is a father and fathers day is coming up on fathers day, add daddy to the end of your comment please it will be epic:) whooooOOOO!
I will be like a prank
I can’t believe Kaalus is still calling the game “SURVIVAL”craft it’s just because there’s nothing good in its survival in Survivalcraft, why not anything else like… Creaticraft? If the survival is so bad then why not improve it? Naming it something that suits it’s cool new features! Right? I stopped playing the game but still I’m keeping it. I waited for nearly more than 2 years for something cool to happen I rather played a different 85% survival realism stuff.
The survival seems fine to me, I never get biased of it. But I appreciate it more than you, so that’s probably why I like the survival mode.
Board*
Board = a stick of wood,
Bored = a loss of interest in a situation or topic, (also can be past tense of “bore” as in to bore a hole in a board).
Furniture? Not bad:)
But, I think everyone want update with LMP (Local Multiplayer, on WiFi, bluetooth, e.t.c)
So, when you will work on it, developer?:)
After single player is finished Kaalus will begin multiplayer. He said it himself in the FAQ
Furniture its a very bad idea , no its not but i need a big chair to create a little chair, what!!, This is very irrealistic , noo? Its anhother way to create furniture , right??
Wassup will the update come when it’s 3017? Or 2017?
It takes time to do these things.
Yes you are right because he is the only one who develops Survivalcraft Only one. But yeah, why he is the only one without supporters?
When do you think he will add more food? you only have 4 different things to eat!
Since we have wheat/flour, eggs, milk, and pumpkins, maybe we should have pumpkin-pie as a possibility to craft once you have all of the components? Or combine beef or chicken with dough to create pot-pies? Or various kinds of restorative teas made from buckets of water boiled with various plant matter (flowers?).
Personally I’d like the option to brew coffee but I think that’s not in the cards.
Just had a thought. CHOCOLATE CAKE.
Will you add swimming and climbing animation? Looks pretty neat in this game. Also add more biomes and terrain features such as Savannah, Extreme Hills, Volcano, Deep lake, River, Coral reef, Swampland, Rainforest, Underwater caverns, and Rift valley. It depends on you after all :P
How do you get a hammer?
add a community content for furniture and a search button so you will not need to scroll down. i am anticipated for the search button for a long time now. thanks
Kaalus!! When the update will be available?
I wonder if the deveploper still works on the game. There hasn’t been any lifesign from him for a long time. Kaalus please respond !
He does as you could have probably noticed if you read the post saw the date and saw the video.
Sorry. Wrong Post.
Some things SurvivalCraft needs (or would be awesome) :
1: SCOPED RIFLES (NEEDED)
2: Ships (Not needed but would be awesome)
3: Good sized Islands Generating in the ocean
4: Palm trees (Also Not needed)
5: Deer (does and bucks) (also not needed but I went hunting this morning so :3)
6: Where you could shrink a massive electric circuit you made into a small circuit. This would be g
reat in 1.30 if you didn’t already add that.
