this mod is for 1.7.10 and you require minecraft forge (which can be downloaded from the main post of this mod

my server does have the mod installed

The customizable house is a way to forever duplicate even the rarest of materials, so why not at least make the recipe more difficult? I don't like the idea of removing it, but it could be more like a reward for hard work than a short cut. The player would have already carved out their little niche in the wilderness by the time they could afford to make a custom block. Maybe replace the top two wooden boards with iron blocks? The mob trap and the tree house are more expensive than the current recipe, but as an endless source of any block you can get your hands on it is the most valuable. Find 10 diamonds (1 for the recipe and 9 for a diamond block) and you have an endless source of material for making more custom blocks. Please not a rare drop like the ender dragon egg or a nether star or a wither skull.

I don't think the mod is updated to Minecraft 1.8 (yet).

If the server doesn't have the mod installed you can't use the mod on it.

Actually considering what it costs to make anvils, ender chests, and enchantment tables maybe it should be more expensive than the suggested 2 blocks of iron. I am still against adding rare, nether and boss drops, but when a player has survived long enough that they can waste 4 iron blocks on that pet iron golem the material cost of the recipe will no longer matter. So, again, the custom house would be more like a reward for hard labor than a shortcut.

So I suggest replacing all 4 corner blocks with iron blocks. 1 diamond aside it wouldn't be much more expensive than an iron golem. Another suggestion involves adding obsidian to the iron recipe so the player is forced to use up the first 3 diamonds on a diamond pickax to mine the obsidian, either by replacing the 2 bottom iron blocks with obsidian or replacing the center diamond with obsidian and leaving the 4 corners as blocks of iron. Personally I would prefer the second recipe, having 2 blocks of iron in the top corners, 2 blocks of obsidian in the bottom corners, and a diamond in the middle. It would be like something between making an anvil and an enchantment table.

Players make anvils and iron golems often enough in survival and need diamond pickaxes to make nether portals, so for an endless source of resources all of the suggested recipes in my opinion are still dirt cheap.

Especially when you consider the attached image.

This mod is awesome, but I wish I could add more than just the one customizable house. It would be cool if we could add new ones in-game too. I'd like to be able to set up a personal *upgradeable* house system in my SSP world. like, starting out with cobblestone and upgrading to diamond or something eventually.

nice skins

Hi there, i just have installed the mod and it's great but by some reason i can't craft the treehouse block (i haven't tried the other recipes tho), i copied the recipe almost exactly and it doesn't work, any ideas?

"Almost exactly"? Could you try exactly? Or please explain further.

Wrong term. Sorry, i'm not a native english speaker :p. Anyway, i tried some recipes and neither the brick house, wood house, tree house or stable works. I copied the recipes exactly and the block just don't show up. Why is that? And thank you for replying me

Actually you speak very well. Thank you for explaining further. Are any other mods installed? Another mod might be interfering with the Insta House mod. Even tiny, innocent looking mods can sometimes cause big problems.

Edit: I just noticed that you just joined this site. If you are new to Minecraft then I have to ask one more thing. Are you using "Forge"?

Thank you! And yes, i've installed forge along with other mods (Railcraft and Buildcraft specifically) i guess they might be interfering, i will try disabling them later, and again, thank you for replying me

Edit: Another mistake, it's actually Industrialcraft and not Buildcraft

I hope not.

I can't seem to download this for MC 1.7.10, due to some dropbox not found error.

Does anyone have the mod which they can upload?

Thanks if you can!

I'm having the same problem

Hi. I had this mod many years ago and I wanted to get it again. So I scrolled down to the bottom of the page and clicked on the download for Insta House v8.0 Pre 2. I was redirected a few times and ended up on dropbox with the message "Error (404) We can't find the page you're looking for." I tried a few different downloads only to end up with the same error. If anyone knows possibly how to fix this, or where else I can get the mod, please let me know because I would like to mess around with this on a creative world.

If you were wondering, no, I am not new to Minecraft or modding and forge. I've played MC since 2011 and have had about 50 mods during that time.

And yes, I created a forum account just to post this.
