I realised that I don't like the painting from my latest post as much as I expected to but I've spent too much time on it already to dedicate even more to fixing it. My most common issue — lack of contrast — strikes again. I have no soundproof room and I must scream.

The key to the stronghold was simple maths!

+ an update on scripts for copying/pasting text from/into Minecraft books at the end of the post

This was drawn after multiple years of artblock (to see what my work used to look like before, visit my Deviantart gallery). It took way longer that I initially expected, and I have only myself to blame for not choosing a simpler art style after such a long time without practice. All for an accompanying image for this post about how I had to resort to triangulation (my Google Sheets file for it is awful but you can use it if you want to) — another thing I haven't done in a while.

At the very beginning of the year I started making my way through a Minecraft world at a snail's pace, following rules that prevent me from killing creatures that aren't naturally hostile, a small exception being spiders, including cave variant, and drowned (they are provoked by natural factors). Which is why it was a problem when on my way to a stronghold, out of three Eyes of Ender, one shattered, and another disappeared in a swirl of cherry petals. It made me turn to trigonometry. The remaining Eye lasted only two throws, but thankfully I didn't mess up too badly and on forty fourth day, two in-game days after I left a dozen of golden ingots in the Nether, I descended twenty two metres below the line where stone met deepslate before stone bricks were finally uncovered. You probably shouldn't rely on this method as much as I did, though. One of the angles was off by just two tenths, and it already directed me not to the chunk with the spiral staircase but to the neighboring one. Thankfully I still managed to find what I was looking for — a library, one of the few efficient ways to get books.

Speaking of, I updated the scripts from my previous post so that now text can be copied from or pasted into Minecraft books when left mouse button is clicked to flip a page, not just automatically, because for some people the latter can be too fast to look at comfortably.

Getting Minecraft's New TikTok Cape (Even If TikTok Is Blocked In Your Country)

The browser version doesn't display any of the prompts, forcing anyone who wants the cape to use the app.

For me, the issue with this was that I live in a country where TikTok is restricted, and the app seems to use some very convoluted methods to determine user's location, meaning I couldn't just use a VPN like with the desktop version. I also didn't want to install the app on my phone.

Here's what worked for me (all the steps starting from 3 are supposed to be done in the emulated space):

1. Install BlueStacks 5 Pie 64-bit,

2. Open BlueStacks X, from there, run App Player (icon that looks like layers of something stacked together in the bottom left corner),

3. I suspect that this step doesn't do anything, but disable use of location (Settings app > Personal > Location > Use location),

4. Log into Google Play Store using the app,

5. Download a VPN (in my case it was VPN.lat) from Google Play Store and connect to a server in a country where TikTok isn't blocked or restricted,

6. Close or force stop Google Play Store (Settings > Device > Apps > Google Play Store > Force Stop) before opening it again (it should act as if you are in a different country now, but you can try clearing storage in the settings in case it doesn't),

7. Download TikTok (it appears that once you begin downloading you can turn off VPN until it's done),

8. Make sure your VPN is on and log into TikTok (preferably with an account you can sacrifice to potential shadow ban) using an e-mail and a one-time code (for me, using a phone number resulted in a message about running out of attempts from the very beginning, and entering a password was not possible due to a non-existent problem with the internet connection).

Yes, apparently, I like chromatic aberration that much. No, I don't have a TikTok account, I used my friend's abandoned one. The last part is important as I've heard that using a VPN can send you into shadow ban.

I stumbled upon this post while waiting for Glaze 1.1 to work its magic (three hours on both medium intensity and rendering speed despite having a whole GPU to itself). I was at a point where I wasn't sure it was even worth it for a sketch that's just meant to accompany a text post.

Wanted to say Glaze 2.0 is AMAZING.

What took 30 mins+ before, took me THREE MINUTES last night. WITH my other programs still running.

For folks who tried Glaze but haven't been using it due to glazing time, give 2.0 a chance!

I've heard that other folks have had it taking the same time/longer, but the quality is so much better. Your settings will determine the outcome, but it's definitely a huge improvement over the initial release version.

This update was super sexy of the Glaze Project. You can download the updated version from their site HERE!

(You should also use in conjunction with Nightshade!)

There is an easy way to paste long texts into Minecraft books!

After a long period of absence I emerge to make a single post, this time not as an artist (I'm still losing to artblock) but as an amateur creator of terrible Python scripts. Pasting long texts into Minecraft books has been the bane of my existence recently, so I thought I'd share my solution.

Said solution is an if-elif spaghetti script that splits text from a file into parts based on the width of characters used in it, then loads them onto clipboard and pastes them into a book one by one. It's supposed to do what Block Book Binder by Andrew Lalis does but without resulting in some pages being empty (at least, in Java Edition 1.20) and with partial support for Cyrillic.

Another script to come out from under my hand copies pages of a pre-existing book, saves their contents as a file for later use, and automatically pastes them after a key press.

Programming is far from my strong suit but I'm pretty happy with what I managed to do (with the exception of that comma in the prompt that I forgot to remove, it bugs me so much now that I noticed it). I hope this will be helpful to someone other than me! 💙

Recently switched to Photoshop to try it out and I think I'm going to switch back to SAI. I like Photoshop but I kinda forgot how much I rely on my blending brushes
