Locating Structures

Abandoned houses from this mod generate naturally during world creation. They appear in the landscape as post-apocalyptic buildings with weathered exteriors. The four house types—Yellow House, Red House, Brick Building, and Red Mansion—spawn randomly across your world, so exploration is necessary to find them.

Search Strategy

The best approach is to travel across different biomes and terrain types. These structures tend to generate on land surfaces rather than in water or underground. Look for distinctive colored walls or brick patterns that stand out from natural terrain. Traveling by foot, horse, or boat across unexplored chunks increases your chances of discovery.

If you're playing on a multiplayer server or want to document locations, mark found houses with signs or waypoints so you and other players can return easily. Each house contains unique loot, so finding multiple structures gives you access to varied resources.

Preparation

Before exploring far from your base, bring basic tools, food, and armor. Some houses may have hostile mobs nearby or inside, so combat readiness is recommended. Bring a pickaxe if you plan to harvest building materials from the structures themselves.
