This is by far the best tutorial I've seen for this mod. Thanks so much! I'm a programmer by trade, but reading through the in-game book was killing me.
Well, I'm not that ambitious, but I hope to at least get people past the first steps. And get it all where it's easier to find so you don't have to flip back and forth between pages or seek through let's plays.
Well, some people like programming. Also, there are ways to save the spells and execute them instantly. And some people, who are much smarter than me, have figured out how to one shot the Ender Dragon and make networks of teleportation hubs. Those are outside the scope of this tutorial series though,
@@minecraftingmom No, i swear, im doing the right thing, but it kinda bug's, (me and my friend are playing on the same server), my friend's casting doesnt bug, but mine does. Im doing the self reflection, triangle, alidade view, the hammer thing-, and then, i do the action, but it still digs below me
Try the new version: Target block (Archer's raycast), (0, 1, 0) vector (from constants), Additive Distillation, Place Block, Edify sapling. Let me see if I've made a video for it ruclips.net/video/LA5g_Iq-_YY/видео.htmlsi=a8gnuxC1-_zy9Cwg isn't the best method, but it might be easier than what I showed in the first tutorial
This is a bit of a late comment but mod allows you to see the tracing for a pattern on a scroll? When i put amethyst dust on a scroll it just shows the start point
I'm not sure if they changed how scrolls work between the Forge and Fabric versions or between Hex Casting version numbers. This video was done entirely with base Hex Casting in 1.18.x Forge.
The vector spell needs a starting point, and "the caster's eyes" makes for a good starting place since it lets you do spells that target the block you put your cursor on.
when i first found this mod it confused the hell out of and it still does but i wanna learn how to use it so i can kill things with shapes i gave up because the first spell was not working
so if i wanted lots of edified logs is there any easier way than to place a block, select that block, break the block, place a sapling, do the spell, and then do it all over? cause im playing on a server and every time the sapling edifys i need to relog cause the tree wont appear unless i do and it take like 1 or 2 minutes just to get one tree and i need way more logs than that.
I'd write the spell to a focus, check episode 2, I think? And then you can cast the same spell over and over. On the edify tree short, someone had a good technique for the base edify spell, let me check that and get back to you
xivilai kikira wrote that you can target your foot by writing the little triangle the other way. So that simplifies stuff bit for one off sapling edifying. I'd use a target block + 1 in the y direction method in a focus. It won't solve the server issue but maybe you can edify several saplings before you log and save a little trouble.
That's from the base Hex Casting mod. I've done a bit of editing to make the image larger for the video. The scrolls on the walls are part of the base mod too, I don't remember if I covered them in this video or in part 2.
Spellbooks I'm planning for one of the next couple episodes. Mind flaying and Akashic records and teleportation etc are outside the scope unfortunately.
@@EmergencyTemporalShift there's a demo for flaying minds, I'll see if I can follow it and narrow down what's necessary. The Akashic record I've been fighting with and might have been locked out by not doing the flayed mind yet.
Oh no! You might test the patterns at master-bw3.github.io/Hex-Studio/ And then try those in creative. You could also post screenshots to the Hexcasting Discord (link in the description of this video) and the experts there will probably know immediately. There are so many parts of this mod that are like forgetting a parentheses in regular programming. I always get so mad whenever I try to create a spell
Maybe you're doing it the other way than I did? Which should reference your feet. There are several ways to do everything in Hexcasting, so you might test if you've made a better way to do the spells I've demonstrated!
Ah sorry about that, it's actually a computer fan that got replaced later, so we can all enjoy all the other random noise in my house. ("enjoy" is a joke)
It's literally a programming language written in a foreign script. I don't think we're stupid for having problems with it, but the people who can do it sure are smart!
Ah, that's actually not as bad. This video explains how to write a spell that uses the location of the block you're looking at, so you just need to put your cross hair on the right place.

It's like they were scared to write things twice and like they didn't know how to make all terms searchable
@@minecraftingmom That feels like an attack on who I am. Also a programmer.
Genuinely helpful without a whole 20 minutes of "HEY GUYS WHAT'S UP WHAT'S UP IT'S YA BOI."
10/10, definitely using this mod in my server modpack.
It's a good mod! Petra did a great job
Thank you for letting me know you liked the tutorial!
thank you! finally someone's tackling how this mod works!
Well, I'm not that ambitious, but I hope to at least get people past the first steps. And get it all where it's easier to find so you don't have to flip back and forth between pages or seek through let's plays.
I just wanna say thank you so much for this series. I had so much trouble learning this mod and the 4 videos you put out help me get started on it.
I really appreciate you letting me know. It means a lot to me!
Love to see it, I just discovered this mod, but it makes my head spin
Same! I hope I can save a few people from reading in game until their hunger bar depletes!
I was just wondering how to get into this very cool mod. Thank you for the tutorial! 💜
You're welcome!
Love it! Your tutorial came in handy when most needed!
I'm glad it's helping!
This is quite the in depth mod
It really is. My tutorials essentially show where the beach is and the mod is an ocean
But..... whats the point? the mod is super complicated. and i need to imput the spell every single time?
Well, some people like programming. Also, there are ways to save the spells and execute them instantly. And some people, who are much smarter than me, have figured out how to one shot the Ender Dragon and make networks of teleportation hubs.
Those are outside the scope of this tutorial series though,
@@minecraftingmom great answer! I didn't know that. Thank you for the reply
i dont understand, when i try to make the sapling grow, the coordinates are aiming BELOW ME, im doing everything correct, why is it like that?
Below you? Are you using self reflection+alidade to trace the look vector?
@@minecraftingmom No, i swear, im doing the right thing, but it kinda bug's, (me and my friend are playing on the same server), my friend's casting doesnt bug, but mine does.

ruclips.net/video/LA5g_Iq-_YY/видео.htmlsi=a8gnuxC1-_zy9Cwg isn't the best method, but it might be easier than what I showed in the first tutorial
@@minecraftingmom Thank you so much! You are the best!!

Very helpful, danke.
Could somebody explain, whats the point of identifying yourself and then turning into a vector?
The vector spell needs a starting point, and "the caster's eyes" makes for a good starting place since it lets you do spells that target the block you put your cursor on.
when i first found this mod it confused the hell out of and it still does but i wanna learn how to use it so i can kill things with shapes
i gave up because the first spell was not working
I've done a tutorial on using the explosion spell and targeting hostile mobs in an area that might help you get started on some options for that.
so if i wanted lots of edified logs is there any easier way than to place a block, select that block, break the block, place a sapling, do the spell, and then do it all over? cause im playing on a server and every time the sapling edifys i need to relog cause the tree wont appear unless i do and it take like 1 or 2 minutes just to get one tree and i need way more logs than that.

Sorry to spam replies, I meant Trinket not focus. I'll get a video up sometime tomorrow with a fast tutorial on it.
ruclips.net/video/LA5g_Iq-_YY/видео.html Here's one way to do it that's pretty fast and easy, let me know if you figure out a better method!
@@minecraftingmom really appreciate this
What mod do u use to display preview of hex drawing?
That's from the base Hex Casting mod. I've done a bit of editing to make the image larger for the video.
The scrolls on the walls are part of the base mod too, I don't remember if I covered them in this video or in part 2.
@@minecraftingmom it static when I place my scrolls on walls. Your scrolls are dynamic.
@@maxlevs use amethyst dust
I assume you’re going to cover foci, spell books and (spoiler) mind flaying (and what comes of that)?
Spellbooks I'm planning for one of the next couple episodes.
Mind flaying and Akashic records and teleportation etc are outside the scope unfortunately.
@@minecraftingmom aww man
@@EmergencyTemporalShift there's a demo for flaying minds, I'll see if I can follow it and narrow down what's necessary. The Akashic record I've been fighting with and might have been locked out by not doing the flayed mind yet.
Well, I successfully made a block of budding amethyst. No luck on the akashic record though.
Episode 2 is up with foci and spellbooks!
Oh i think im late, very funny mod, can you say hiw to spawn ametist golem?
Hi! The amethyst golem is from another mod called Ars Nouveau. Sorry, I forgot some people might not know that one.
Thank you so much, you are very cool youtuber
I make the same patterns as you, but it doesn't work and it is getting on my nerves
Oh no! You might test the patterns at master-bw3.github.io/Hex-Studio/ And then try those in creative.
You could also post screenshots to the Hexcasting Discord (link in the description of this video) and the experts there will probably know immediately.

Yiur guids is cool
Whenever I cast the simple triangle the coordinates are red, what does that mean? Also great video so far!

@@minecraftingmom yeah shortly after I realized what I was doing wrong. My bad 😣
wow, i critiqued this video on newtubers a while ago, you said it was the one video you didnt hate, look where it is now!
And of course, now I see so many things I could do better.
But at the time, I couldn't have done those things better, you know?
I gave up :( I’m going to stick the the create mod
The documentation for Hexcasting is so frustrating
Good tutorial, Bad mic, i get disoriented when i hear that fan go on and off
Ah sorry about that, it's actually a computer fan that got replaced later, so we can all enjoy all the other random noise in my house. ("enjoy" is a joke)
I hate this lol. but it needed so now I gotta remember crap noo ;-;
It's so hard. Some people use it like they're just typing regular words on a keyboard and I'm so impressed with them but I can't relate.
I don't think im smart enough for this
It's literally a programming language written in a foreign script. I don't think we're stupid for having problems with it, but the people who can do it sure are smart!
It's the math part that confuses me. I'm not going to be able to figure out the equations for specific coordinates and such
Ah, that's actually not as bad. This video explains how to write a spell that uses the location of the block you're looking at, so you just need to put your cross hair on the right place.
I hate this mod to death, I will NEVER play it AGAIN
There's so many great mods that don't require breaking your brain. Let me know if you find a super fun one!
YOU GO WAY TO FAST WHEN SETTING UP THE PATTERNS GOD DAMN
I'm sorry, this was my first tutorial, and it was 5 a.m., and I was super nervous!
@@minecraftingmom Don't listen to them
