Join me tonight as I continue the westward leg of my explorations of the biomes added to Minecraft by the Terralith data pack.
I will also be looking for opportunities to gain enough levels to apply a couple enchantment books I'm sitting on.

An overview of a taiga-style Minecraft village on the shore of a lake, with hills and mountains rising behind it. The right half village rises up the slope of mountainous terrain. Red and green trees are scattered across the entire landscape, courtesy of the custom biome from Terralith.

Bonus Stream!
I have an extra day off work, so I'm doing a Pop-Up Gaming session, continuing my first playthrough of the horror game Limbo by Playdead.
Watch at 11:15PM US Eastern time (4:15AM UTC) Mon Nov 10, on Twitch at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn
YouTube re-post likely the next day.
Title screen of upcoming gaming stream. Text says "BCowcorn plays LIMBO Session 3" over an in-game scene showing the player's chracter standing on what appears to be the frame of a glass dome with several broken panes. The entire scene is misty and black & white, with vague shapes hinted at in the background.

I traversed some beautiful but difficult terrain during tonight's session of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD. This particular spot, with a grotto hidden behind a waterfall accessed from this pond through a cut in the mountain, would make a nice base, I think.
Watch for the YouTube re-post tomorrow.
BCowcorn's Minecraft character stands in the distance on the stony shore of a pond amongst a jumbled terrain of mountains pierced with gaps and caves, and spotted with custom trees from the Terralith datapack's Cloud Forest biome. The ground is speckled with a variety of white flowers. Spruce trees dot the foreground. A tall waterfall is visible, falling from near the top of a tall mountain, the lower portion visible through a gap in a nearer mountain.

The first attempt to upload last night's HardCorn Terralith NOMAD session to YouTube failed, so I am re-attempting. 🤞
BCowcorn's Minecraft character looks out over the desert at an unassuming structure known to harbor pillagers. The sun is setting mid-frame. The structure is in the distance on the right, lit by torches or lanterns - it's hard to tell at this distance. And a sandy mountain rises on the left past BCowcorn, pocked with cave openings and apparently hollow. The sky is brownish in the sandy air, fading to a bright orange along the horizon. The foreground is a mix of sand and red sand blocks.

I wasn't sure tonight's stream of HardCorn TOS would start on time but it looks like it will. Join me 11:15PM-12:45AM US Eastern time (3:15-4:45AM UTC) in my Minecraft 1.17 forever world at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn
BCowcorn's Minecraft character stands in the increasingly quartz-dressed Spire Atrium of his base.

I'm back, and I should be streaming tonight (barring more mic problems).
Join me tonight for session 42 of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD. 11:15PM US Eastern (3:15 AM UTC) at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn
BCowcorn's Minecraft character stands on a beach alongside a savanna biome, while his pups and cat sit in their boats. The view is from above, looking off to the south. A river runs across, from the ocean on the left to the distance in the middle-right. A mountain in the savanna biome is visible across the river. Brown cows dot the near side of the river.

I've decided I need some blaze rods to make end rods.
Join me tonight for the next session in my Minecraft 1.17 forever world, ep 224 of HardCorn TOS.

A slightly oblique view of the main base nether portal in BCowcorn's Minecraft 1.17 forever world from his HardCorn TOS series. It is in a cave, with part of the cave cut off by a barrier of iron bars. There are a few torches scattered around on the walls around the portal, which is built into the cave wall.

It looked friendlier on the outside.
In a Minecraft cave, a couple zombies, a skeleton, and a creeper lurk in the darkness with multiple daylit cave entrances in the background across the flooded chamber. Through one entrance, BCowcorn's Minecraft character can be seen looking across at them. The grass seen through that entrance is an odd purple color, and exotic flowers and crystals can bee seen scattered around on the ground.

Well, tonight's livestream of HardCorn TOS Ep 223 could have gone better in a couple different ways.
I'll be posting a cleaned-up re-post to YouTube tomorrow.
BCowcorn's Minecraft character flees a large group of guardians as they all bring their eye lasers to bear on him. The glass and prismarine walls of the guardian farm is visible to the left with the guardians massed at its base. BCowcorn is fleeing toward the upper-right, almost silhouetted against the blue of the open ocean. A bit of sea grass and kelp are visible in the lower-left and lower-right foreground, framing the scene a bit, with more sea grass and kelp visible in the distance.

Session 39 of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD is in the can. I'm getting a few key things set up for the re-post edit, then it's off to bed...
With a pale sky overhead, BCowcorn's Minecraft character, dressed in diamond armor and gold helmet, rides a leather-armored brown horse across a desert dune, from the left side of the frame. More dunes are visible in the distance, as is an oasis of water and trees nestled between them. Nearby on the right, a camel walks by in the opposite direction.

Big ol' OOPS tonight during the HardCorn Terralith NOMAD stream. My mic got un-selected somehow in OBS, and I didn't notice until after!
So I plan to record a voice-over for the YouTube re-post tomorrow, which will delay it getting edited and posted. Sorry about that!
BCowcorn's Minecraft character, dressed in diamond armor and gold helmet, looks out over a Terralith fortified village from atop a nearby tower. One of his pups is at his heel. Grassy terrain with gentle hills surround the scene, with a river running past the village, running from the left middle ground to the middle background. The sky is blue and the sun is peeking into frame up in the upper-right corner. A few small spruce trees are scattered across the landscape, mostly to the right half of the scene.

Join me tonight for session 38 of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD, as I continue the southward leg of my journey of discovery, attempting to visit all the biomes added by the Terralith terrain generation pack, or die trying.
Tonight at 11:15PM US Eastern (3:15AM UTC) at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn
BCowcorn's Minecraft character, resplendent in his diamond armor and gold helmet, gallops south across a hot Terralith biome and approaches a river. The mid-morning sun shines down from above. Red and green trees are visible in the left background, and brown sparsely leaved trees are visible across the river in the center and right background.

I'm back! And it's time to return to my Minecraft 1.17 forever world. Join me Saturday night at 11:15PM US Eastern time for the live stream of Ep 221 of HardCorn TOS at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn. Gently cleaned re-post usually the next day on YouTube.
A pile of Minecraft guardians swirls at the bottom of a square glass shaft as another falls to join them, Outside the shaft, the bubble cells built on the remains of an ocean monument can be seen. The view is from inside the shaft.

Can I get up there? Find out tonight in session 37 of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD, 11:15 PM US Eastern (3:15 AM UTC) at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn
BCowcorn's Minecraft character looks up at a Terralith skyland biome floating island, contemplating its accessibility. Some leaves of a nearby tree are overhead, and a tuft of grass is in the lower right. The floating island is in the center of the image, while BCowcorn is in the lower left. He is wearing diamond armor and a gold helmet.

While editing last weekend's HardCorn TOS stream for re-post to YouTube, I discovered I left some gaps that should have been glassed over.
So join me at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn Saturday night at 11:15PM US Eastern (Sun 3:15AM UTC) and watch me try to fix them.
The interior of a 'bubble cell' in BCowcorn's Minecraft guardian farm. The floor of the cell is covered with soul sand producing lots of bubbles. Various kinds of prismarine blocks are embedded in the glass wall between this cell and the next, but there is a three-block hole in the wall that should have been filled with glass blocks.

Hey! We're back to two-stream weekends! Tonight it's HardCorn Terralith NOMAD session 34. Join me tonight at 11:15 US Eastern (3:15 AM UTC) at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn to see what's beyond the nice tower we stopped at last time.
(And if that Windows bug glitches the stream, catch it later on YouTube.)
BCowcorn's Minecraft Character, resplendent in diamond armor and gold helmet, stands atop a stone brick and oak plank tower with crenelations on top, looking out over an oak and birch forest that lies ahead on his eastern trek. A tamed wolf can be seen peeking out from a wooden ledge lower down the tower. An ocean is visible to the left of the trees.

I THINK I have a normal weekend finally! So join me Saturday night at 11:15 PM US Eastern (3:15 AM Sunday UCT) at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn for session 217 of HardCorn TOS. I'm still demolishing the ocean monument interior to improve the guardian farm. Come watch the grind!
Re-post on YouTube next day.
BCowcorn's Minecraft Character floats inside a partly demolished guardian farm, breaking one of its blocks. Below can be seen part of a grid of glass blocks marking out the borders of the bubble cells above (out of view) The scene is lit from behind by a lone sea lantern in a wall.

Episode 33 of HardCorn Terralith NOMAD is in the can. I'll be lightly editing it tomorrow and re-posting to YouTube.
An Evoker looks out from the top floor of a Mage Tower while BCowcorn's Minecraft character is visible below in the distance with his pets casting long shadows in the morning light on the calcite shores of an amethyst rainforest biome with its purple-leaved jungle trees. Both the tower and biome are from the Terralith terrain generation datapack from Startdust Labs.

I'm back! Tonight at 11:15 US Eastern join me as I continue my hardcore Minecraft explorations in HardCorn Terralith NOMAD.
Live stream at www.twitch.tv/bcowcorn
Gently edited repost next day on YouTube.
BCowcorn's Minecraft character, dressed in diamond armor and gold helmet, looks down from a mountain into a frozen river valley, two of his pups looking on. Spruce trees dot the landscape on either side of the river, and a waterfall is visible on the left side, flowing past a cave entrance. It is snowing, lightly due to a resource pack that reduces the flakes for visibility.

Once again I am spending time with my family and will not be able to stream one night this weekend. This time it's Saturday night, so there will be no HardCorn TOS episode. But I should be finally doing a new HardCorn Terralith NOMAD session Sunday, so stay tuned!
BCowcorn's Minecraft character stands in the middle distance in the murky interior of the partly demolished ocean monument, and raises his trident to fight off a guardian which is firing its laser at him. The view is over what would be the guardian's shoulder if it had shoulders. A grid of glass blocks, with more glass blocks extending upwards from each intersection in the grid, can be seen on the floor of the monument, marking out the borders of the bubble columns above (not seen).

Due to the need to prep for some remodeling we're doing tomorrow, tonight's stream of HardCorn: Terralith NOMAD has been cancelled. It should resume next weekend. Thank you for your patience!
For the Time Being, you can catch up on past episodes: www.youtube.com/@BCowcorn
BCowcorn's Minecraft character, wearing diamond armor and a gold helmet, looks down from a stone brick tower as a pillager patrol passes across the plains below toward a spruce forest to the left. A village sits in the distance, thankfully being bypassed by the patrol. Further off a snowy mountain rises above the forest. The view is from over BCowcorn's shoulder.

That's session 216 of HardCorn TOS in the can, and some good progress on the farm improvements.
I'm not sure if I'll have time to edit during the day Sunday due to some IRL remodeling prep I need to do, and tomorrow night's stream may be impacted as well. But I will try!
BCowcorn's Minecraft character swims towards the viewer through the partly dismantled interior of an ocean monument. The area behind him is lit by sea lanterns in the walls, while the area he swims into is in darkness. Bits of the glass block grid marking out the borders of bubble cells is visible through the gaps in the various prismarine blocks, as are some bubbles from one cell. Parts of the layer of soul sand that was laid on top of the monument structure is visible above, exposed by the excavations done so far.

Join me Saturday night at 11:15 PM US Eastern (3:15 AM UTC) for the next session of HardCorn: TOS. I am continuing the work of mining out the ocean monument to extend all the guardian farm bubble cells down to its baseplate. Re-post next day on YouTube.
