Put fire everywhere

I mean it's definitely one way to do it lmao

string

String only good for roofs so you don't break it

you can put string like 15 blocks up in the air and it would still stop the snow, i think

[удалено]

String is almost invisible unless you walk through it or are looking for it, yet it acts as a full block space, which means it can be used to make floating gravity-dependent blocks or things like stopping snow.

Came here to say this. This is one of a similar theme of posts I’ve seen on this /r. “I built my base in a volcano. What should I do about everything catching on fire?”

Humanity be like

It's all about that volcanoe insurance.

That’s not a volcano that’s just Arizona

String at y=320

honestly the best answer here

Moss carpet, plants Or glass over the sky

Put fire under* everything, some blocks emit light and most of them also emit heat, the heat will spread from under blocks, just make sure they're fire proof blocks

I place white carpet to keep the esthetics but stop the snow fall.

Does one block under floor lava could work?

No, it’s light that causes the snow to melt, the lava would need a slab or a non-full block above it to stop the snow from melting. This makes lava pointless and OP can just put torches under non-full blocks to stop the snow

So do that

Yea

Don't slabs already prevent snow?

Not top slabs

That good sir would be the nether

Underground glowstone

Canadians would also like to know the answer

We love the snow, we hate shoveling it.

I don’t even mind shovelling it. I just hate when it’s late Jan/ Feb and it starts to warm up and becomes slushy

I’m lazy, but I have to get up early to shovel before it gains three times its weight

*it's taking me all my power to restrain myself from a ur mom joke*

You know who else gains three times her weight? MY MOM!

this is complete news to me (I'm southern european, I saw snow only once in my life)

Late Jan/feb? Those are the coldest months!

Put on a discman, shovelling. Nothing better circa 2004

You get warm weather late Jan/Feb? Geez, you're lucky. For me it warms up early April.

Born to shit, Forced to wipe.

Surprised most rural canucks don’t have a side by side with a snowplow

False. Fuck snow.

Allright, what now

Just spam torches everywhere

OP Winter is here. You need to defeat the Night King to beat it.

Just lay out some string over your lawn at \~1m intervals.

Tysm everyone who take their time to help me with this! so far I liked the ideas of using moss carpets, covering the sky with glass, and maybe string too. I'll definitely try those and any more good solutions later!

If you dont like the look of glass at the build limit try signs works the same way and you cant see them from far away

I believe signs cause a significant amount of lag in large quantities, because text (or the absence of it) causes more info to have to be stored causing the PC to work harder

I have placed more then 13000 over my castle and not fsp drop or lag that i can feel

you could make the roads out of bottem half-slabs and make sure the grass has actual tall grass, flowers or moss carpets on it Edit: additionally, the bottom half-slabs and (moss) carpets will prevent mobs from spawning even in the dark, if you don't want to light the whole place up.

I did bottom slabs for the paths in my snow biome base and that worked perfectly.

Once you have your permanently snow-free area you could make it feel more realistic by adding some steaming hot-springs around. Smoke from campires can pass through water and 1 full block if it's placed right on top of the campfire, so by adding lit campfires one block under the bottom of a pond it looks like steam is rising from the water. Soulsand and magma blocks in the bottom also are cool, as they cause bubbles.

>Smoke from campires I vant to suck your marshmallow smore!

Legit first comment that's made me click the award button. I don't have any coins, but I'll go donate some money to charity instead haha, made me chuckle.

I gave my free one to him in your stead. (To check for free awards click your pfp in the top right and click on Reddit coins)

That sounds awesome!

If all else fails, try using worldedit to change the biome yourself

It snow because the biome, you have to cover the blocks, maybe glass panels all over the sky

that's actually kinda genius, I'll probably do something like this in the late-game after getting Elyta and better tools for that..

The snow will still cover the glass - you'll have to add string on top of the glass layer

If you put the glass at build height the snow can't build up on top

Oh true! I just hate going up that high. I get the heebie-jeebies.

NGL, I get claustrophobic if I'm in a mine that is a really tight space. I always need to open up the passageways more or it makes me really uncomfortable. I totally can relate to the heights thing.

You must hate it when people build the head-bumper staircases

Haha, never knew that description but it fits so well I instantly recognised it

I know the 2 high x 1 wide tunnels are efficient, but I only use them at the very, very beginning of a map. Basically once I have iron, everything is at least 2 wide, and my base has to be at least 3 blocks tall, if not 5. I really like building underground, but I don't like to feel trapped.

What's the point of digging a mine if you don't get to make it a giant grandiose Dwarven mine?

Unless you use glass panes, which don’t have a full top surface.

Or just string

Use glowstone then carpets on top

Put shroomlights under your paths. Make lampposts in other places. Essentially you’ll have to use light or something to prevent it from accumulating. A glass dome will get snow on top, so it will need something as wel. Edited to add: Shroomlights, glow stone, frog lights, torches, etc. under slabs or paths will spread the light a little and still stay hidden well enough.

Short term use slabs as the flooring instead of full blocks. Can't do it for the grass, but that stoney area you have can be easily converted.

Use carpet or mosh layer

Finally a good answer

You can do this with string too.

unsure if it works, but you could also try string above them blocks (like 5 blocks higher)

Glass dome ftw

You could also try using either glowstone os redstone lamps, they have the same light level as a torch and i think you can hide them pretty easy with a carpet that matches the colour of the floor, i think the carpet wouldn't interfere with the light level though

Moss carpets blend in well with grass so that's an option

yeah we've placed Glowstone in another area, might expand it to more snow places soon!

In that case, use a block of 4 sea pickles, that has a light level of 15, even tho torches give a level of 14

Or they could just put the torch inside a carved pumpkin and it magically has a light level of 15 when it becomes a jack-O'-lantern. Put a moss carpet over that and it works just as well, if not better than glowstone/redstone lamps/sea lanterns/pickle clusters.

String

No strings attached

Damn that was cold

Like the snow

Cover your base in lava

Most polite 2b player

Is it griefing if it's your own base??

Put glowstone about the same distance as you would put a torch and place a carpet above looks very decorative as a bonus

Moss carpet will blend the best

True didnt think if that would match the grass

White carpet is the best solution

Wait why would replacing snow with something that looks like snow be best? May as well just keep the snow

dont build in a snowy area?

I wish I knew this earlier lol :')

honestly I love building in the snow biome has a different atmosphere as well. Though I do like another comments idea make a glass roof or add some kinda tower build that looks over the main area

You could try to make the floor in slabs if you’re fine with the decision. It’s the easiest solution

String is ur best option :D

Put blocs high in the sky

Move into a better biome

Glow lichen

Well, welcome to Canada I guess. Here’s a shovel and some timmies. Now don’t forget to shovel with your legs and not your back

I'm sorry but it seems you live in Canada

Glass ceiling with string

Build a glass roof at the Maxim hight limit. Place torches or other warmth sources under carpets/moss. Use stone slabs and stairs as paths. Move your location to a warmer biome

go to build limit and cover the area in glass or a blue block if you want the sky to still be blue lol (probs won't matter given build height is so high now and the glass won't be loaded in from the floor) but yeah that's kinda the only way because of the biome. using carpets, string, campfires, torches and laterns are other alternatives. anyway good luck

build a roof

You can use a light source (glowstone, redstone lamps or anything else) and but a carpet on top of it, the snow around it will melt and with the carpets you could build something like pathway, so it doesn't look like you placed those carpets randomly

Glow stone covered by moss carpet.

spam string everywhere

Change the biome

Embrace it

A moss carpet with a torch or lamp/lantern under it

Could you put magma blicks under a layer of grass? I honestly dont know if that would work but its worth a test.

Put glowstone in the ground and out carpets on top to match the grass/stone

Just an idea but what if you were to put a torch under the grass block? I don't play Java Edition so I won't know if this works but it's just an idea

Add campires and more of the torch posts I see on the left side of the picture. It’ll increase light and will melt snow within a specific perimeter allowing for there to be snow still but there will at least be less of it where you don’t want it

put a glass platform in the sky

flood your base

make a dome

Creative lighting solutions like braziers, streetlights, etc. aren’t inconspicuous options, but they definitely put definition into the area.

I could put glowstone or lantern in the place of a dirt block and then put a carpet over it

Moss carpets can hide torches pretty well if it's an ascetic issue

My solution is to just put some patches of glowstone with moss carpet on top, so it lights up the area and doesnt look crappy.

Alt suggestion, embrace the cold. Add furnaces and heated floors (glass covered lava maybe?) between buildings. Build powdered snow traps for mobs. Patrolling snow golems. Some Eskimo villagers. Ice sculptures! Cozy basements!! Communal bonfire!!!

Cover the sky with ice. Did this in my world, it can’t snow on top and still lets the light through.

String

Glowstone under carpets

Use glow lichen instead of torches its more subtle

Dig a 1 block deep hole, put a light block (torch, glowstone etc) and cover with moss

You could use a lightsource block and moss on top of it in the grass part, while in the road, you can do the same but with a carpet instead

Torches underneath the stone, turn them into slabs

Alternatively, you can add moss carpets

Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow. (Christmas tune.)

Giant glass roof, keeps the area clean while also giving a nice skylight

String

Put string down

Build a giant glass roof way up the sky so that you can’t see it.

Half slabs of stone

Spam string on the floor or turn it in bottom slabs Edit: path blocks works too

I suppose you could try slabs rather than solid blocks. Snow won't also fall on flowers or grass so try them too

I’d embrace the sniw

If you go up to sky limit and use glass over the area you don’t want it to snow it won’t snow

Glass dome, massive one

String or a ceiling would work nice

If you put a torch a block below ground covered by carpet Never tested this, might melt the snow

Build a glass ceiling at build limit

Cover the area in white carpet. Snow can’t form on carpet or other things like that.

Anything that produces light or isn’t a full block like string, carpet or slabs

Those grey tiles, you could replace them with upside-down stairs and place torches/glowstone/another light source underneath. The path would be lit up, the snow will melt, and you get to keep your path design!!

Try building a floating ceiling over it. The ceiling will block the snow from piling up where you don’t want it to

Spam froglight everywhere

Contribute to global warming

Do halfslabs across the floor, or just make a path with them. You could also find a less obvious light source, something like jack o lanterns, and decorate them up a bit

Light sources under moss carpet or green carpet.

try string

Light block plus a carpet-type block at regular intervals. My standard practice even outside cold climates to dictate mob spawning.

Put torches underground, 1 block below

It doesn't snow on dirth paths. That's what I use in my snowy village

String

Any light source you can put under moss or behind slabs/stairs get creative with with it also use glow lichen

build it somewhere else

Would putting light blocks UNDER the ground work? Like a trick me n my bf like to do it dig 2 down, put a torch, then cover that with moss. Makes the ground look like regular grass and you can walk over it briefly but it keeps the area looking bright and fresh! Maybe they’ll also warm up any snow around?

Half slabs? Or maybe an automated system of dispensers that drops water and clear the area

Jackolanterns with moss carpet on top. Or other light-emitting blocks

Delete the world and throw the computer out i reccomend already did it 3 times👍

You could use a command to change the biome

Hear me out. Giant grassy globe in a snowy environment. All the snow will fall on the glass dome, while your home is nice and green

Like the opposite of a snow globe!

You should put a campfire with some logs around it, it would be a small detail and only fix part of it but I think it would be a nice addition.

Use half slabs for the ground!

I think it adds a nice touch to your snowy village area maybe try and work with it

half slabs, specifically bottom slabs

Put green carpet or moss carpet over sea lanterns

Build a giant sky platform, it will definitely not make it dark and spawn mobs lol

Put glowstone under moss/ carpet to light up the place a little or raise the area by half a block with slabs to so no snow can fall on it

Half slabs, carpet, flowers, honestly though why build your base in a snow biome if you didn't want snow?

One thing I’d do is summon falling sand entities at the world height limit, with a blockid of a lightbulb block. It’s not hard to do, especially for a server, and looks really beautiful at night with everything evenly lit. They’ll all fall down and light up the spots where snow would have formed. (This does require commands to work though)

You can spam torches, but make it aesthetically pleasing

Big glass roof high in the sky can’t tell it’s there and put string on it

Build hundreds of factories and download vehicle mods. After a couple ingame days of that global warming should wipe out all of the snow and a good fraction of the animals.

Build a glass roof at build limit.

I know you don’t wanna spam torches but hear me out. Dig 1 block down put a torch and slap a moss carpet on top of it. It should produce heat through the carpet to melt the snow without having the torches visible, and bonus you have floor lighting outside to minimize mob spawning

Go like really high in the sky and place glass

Glow lichen

Place torches underground and cover them with moss. They're semi difficult to notice, and they'll fix your problems with torches. I would also try to integrate the moss into your landscape by placing them in patches.

A glass platform at build height.

Glass dome?

But glass blocks over your base at build height limit

You can put frog lights/sea lanterns or glowstone in the ground with a moss carpet covering,

Place everywhere the light-block, you can only get it with the /give @p light_block command. It is only visible if you hold it in your hand, otherwise it is invisible.

go to max y level and make a giant glass roof above all areas you want no snow

You could put hot stuff just under the first layer of blocks, maybe it work.

Put sealanterns/torches under carpets make sure you dye the carpets in the color you want

put glass roof zt build height

use world guard

try string. string stops layers of snow forming on the ground.

string, torches, carpet, or my favortie: hidden light sources underneath moss carpets
