I think this is the most important part of our cave and will give their the characteristic atmosphere:
Adding light spots onto the right places. The difficulty of this part is to use the right ratio between dark and bright spots.

Before I'll start with setting some light sorces I'll break all other blocks they produce light to get better feedback, on which spots the lighting would looks good:

​

For the lighting I digg into a wall or into the roof and relplace the dirt blocks with the cave-blocks.
After that I'll place the torches anywhere where they couldn't been seen:

​

It makes a better impression and the light will become "smoother" (that means darker):

​

So, now we have dug a cave, replaced dirt with blocks they give the cave a personality, set light spots here and there to give them more character and eventually we made a Mysterious lake and planted fancy flowers, grasses, saphlings, mushrooms and vines.

I hope you can do anything with my Tutorial.

If you should have any questions left feel free to post them into this thred.

Btw, for that all I've need one day (I don't know how many hours exactlty)

And if you should find some spelling- or grammatical mistakes,
then it would be nice to let me know them (because english isn't my first language).

no need to triple post bud

 

If you write a big Thread they includes many Pictures and Words it wouldn't be postet because there pops out error messages:

You will get this message if your Thread includes to many pictures:




You will get this message if your Thread is longer than 10000 characters:




You will get this message if your Thread includes more content than the Website can load at the same time:


​

So what could I do to bypass this restrictions?

Make a thread with a tripplepost? That's not alowed, because a tripplepost is a variant of a doublepost:

| [1]

The best solution was to create 3 Threads and link them with each other.

I haven't found anything about that into the rules, that this is not alowed.

But this is not part of this Thread, because it is Off-Topic.

 

I dont think we need part four

 

Well... I'm not going to hate.
I like the lighting idea though, it adds the aspect of mystery that I think have been missing from some of my builds.
Thanks for the tips! :D
