cobble walls

[Crysyn 179]

This is a fairly common site around a farmer's field, as well as hedges. Just some way to stack cobble stone in a 1.5 height for a wall to keep out most pests would be fairly useful.

to me that sound a little like cobblestone slabs XD

[spAnser 34]

He means like the ones on this page http://metaldetectin...earch_p47.shtml

At least I think that's what it made me think of.

Some other good ones http://www.shutterstock.com/pic-32256727/stock-photo-in-the-hills-of-england-dry-stone-walls-are-made-to-divide-fields-as-no-hedges-will-grow-in-the.html

i know what he meant but essentially cobble block with a slab on top is 1.5 high and kinda is the same.

I believe Crysyn, as well as myself and probably many others, would prefer having something thinner to work with. A vertical half block if you will.

[Crysyn 179]

Yeah I am thinking like the timber supports we have thickness wise, but they just can be used to make solid walls.. Right now I am using timber but cobble stone walls would be awesome and fitting

[Bioxx 796]

This is doable and I need another use for cobblestone so we'll see once I get smp done

[Crysyn 179]

Awesome!

Maybe using a hammer on non-flux cobble makes it into stone shards, and then mixing that with clay or mud you can make stone walls?

That also gives another use to clay. I think using all the abundant resources in multiple ways adds to the realism.

I cant help but to remember that BTW mod has something similar with saw and a sculptor or something i believe... i can never remember cause i never got that far. so i am pretty sure its doable. i think things like that would definitely add to the feel of evolving where you live and building up.

BTW with a saw mill can cut logs to planks, planks to half slabs, half slabs to quarters and quarters down to 1/8th blocks that can then be placed.. Each one of those pieces takes up the entire block they are placed within and will attach to the surfaces they are near.. I know he talked about stone cutting.. but none of this is middle of the block aligned like the struts or fence pieces... at least the last time I played BTW.

Cobble walls could just use the same code as the fences I would think. It would just use a cobble texture instead of wood.

My thought as well, they should just be solid is all instead of posts

it should also be connectable to the wooden fences so it doesnt gap, or maybe make a stone fence ?

I strongly approve of THAT, sir.

I don't really know why I'm reviving such an old thread, but I really like the idea and I wanted to post this:

Exactly. Keep the unjumpable height, middle of block, auto connect etc but make it look like a cool rock wall

[bsb23 303]

so its a stone fence because fences already do this they connect to nearby blocks and their collision box is 1.5 blocks high so there is really no difference besides material.

Exactly, all it needs to be

Aesthetics. :U

I 100% love that what that mod Barkingnoise posted has done with the cobble fences.
