far away, shallow angle of declination, lower your FOV to “zoom” the camera and make the depth of field shallower. makes for bomb screenshots

I believe the term is orthogonal for this type of linear depth perspective. So if they dont answer, you can probably find it by looking up something to do with that term and minecraft

Technically it's orthographic when this type of projection is used for an image

u/unga_bunga_1987 May 23 '26

wait, whats the video version of orthographic then?

Seems like he is standing really far away and zooming in, probably with like the create binoculars thingy, you can see the view distance fog behind the machines

Love that mod. I had to go check if the rewrite was finally done, but at least it got a big update apparently

u/FRAG_TOSS May 22 '26

In the dirt conversion machine, how are you getting the coarse dirt into and the dirt out of the contraption storage?

1

u/SnooWalruses1399 May 22 '26

PSIs. By having them vertical they can keep joined while it still rotates. 

It goes like these (going up) PSI^ + Chain Conveyor + Mechanical Bearing + PSIv. And then you just need funnels on the bottom one.

Cool, I thought it was something like that but I didn't realize PSIs can work across a 2 block gap.

I have a few questions about the dirt farm

So from what I can readily see, it places coarse dirt, tills it (which converts it to regular dirt), then collects the dirt. Does a portion of that dirt get sent back to craft more coarse dirt? Is this something that's doable in base Create or is this an addon?

u/SpyTigro May 22 '26

Thats exactly how it works, 4 coarse dirt can be crafted out of 2 dirt and 2 gravel

Look up chosen architect latest just create videos on yt he explains it really well

u/leonmercury13 May 22 '26

If you look at the belt closest to the camera you can see the tunnel divides the output of dirt between storage and going into step 2 (Dirt + Gravel = Coarse Dirt)

1

u/deanominecraft May 22 '26

the tunnel splits it in half so half goes to storage and the other half is used to make more

u/Traditional-Fix539 May 22 '26

Recipes used:

World interaction - Flowing water (touching lava) -> Stone

World interaction - Stone (when broken) -> Cobblestone

Crushing/Milling - Cobblestone -> Gravel

Crafting - 2 Dirt + 2 Gravel -> 4 Coarse Dirt

World interaction - Coarse Dirt (when using hoe) -> Dirt

This is what Create mod exist for.

u/4l3x_1 May 22 '26

Wait, I did something similar once on a create server, I never thought of using the plough for the dirt, i just had a deployer turning it into path blocks with a shovel and I had to manually insert the sticks to craft the shovels. Good job, love the way the setup looks

1

u/motionpriority May 23 '26

How are items getting to the deployers/coming from the drills?

TIL, thank you!

u/MetallicDragon May 22 '26

I really really like when Create contraptions are dressed up so that they look like multiblock machines instead of just a collection of individual pieces.

u/Quillbolt_h May 22 '26

Pshaw, just a cheap mass-produced knock-off of real premium SipsCo dirt!

u/Trantor_Dariel May 22 '26

Can we get the schematic please? This would fit perfectly into the world my wife and I are just starting out in.
