Building Color/Design Guide

Post by TeckXKnight »

This is, unfortunately, not a comprehensive guide. Hopefully it helps you in some way and best of luck building your dream homes in Haven. =)
Note that each type of wood has two different colors, the frame of the target is the primary color and the target itself is its secondary color. Also note that each wood has its own pattern/design.

For reference, from jorb:
jorb wrote:Note that you need a significant presence of a second wood type to get a result. 59 blocks of poplar and 1 of cherry will, for example, mean that poplar is used for both materials set by the woodblocks. A 35-25 ratio (Not entirely sure where the cutoff is) will mean that one of the materials is set by poplar, and the other by cherry.

Elm wood.

The frame of your "???" looks to be elm as well, just with a different secondary block and boards.

We've made progress and people have sent me pictures of things but I'm about to be gone for the weekend so I'll update more when I get back on Monday.
