Minecraft pictures

[paecmaker]

If anyone here play minecraft maybe you want to show us some pictures of your mighty places.

I will try to get a picture myself when my pc comes back.

[BobTD]

I will keep this in mind, I for sure have a few save files with some projects, trouble is they are server saves and Im being lazy about converting them right now.

[Joshuah]

Ah, I lost a world earlier which I spent hours on, but I recovered it from my server! <3
Here's some screenshots of it. :D
Also, one of my SS wouldn't upload ._.

[BobTD]

that is a weird texture pack, I am still using default seeing as I mostly play on servers.

[Joshuah]

Ah, I'm, using Painterly Pack 'cause it makes the game run faster as I have a laptop so yeah, plus I don't like the original texture pack :}

This is a save file a friend of mine was working on, nothing great in the actual picture but sorta ish shows what the texture pack im using looks like : P

Thought I'd share what we've been up to in Minecraft lately... Dili and I started by making a castle, which turned into a kingdom (with much help from exe and saph, of course), and then we decided we'd like to start making two more cities... A dwarven-style city, and an elven-style city.

Lots of pictures, so...



Dili made an outpost train station that you get to from any of the three cities. you push one of these buttons,

and it will take you to your destination! It was really, really complicated and took him a long time to do, but it's awesome ^^

If you go to the elves, you get

Thank you for the credit to Exe and I, Muffin :)

What Exe and I built:

The Twin Towers of Balance
-Tower of Doom by Saph(Has lava pouring from it, and looks quite ominous and slightly chaotic)
-Tower of Tranquility by Exe(Has water pouring from it, and looks neat and calming)
The Great Unicorn Wall
-Our greatest project! We started from each side and met behind the castle, but Exe got tired so I fixed alittle tiny bit of the rest, but it was close enough to be called an equally ambitious undertaking :D
The wall is 4 blocks wide, and 10 blocks tall(at the very least, 10 is standard height, in some places I've counted as high as 18+!)
The Lighthouse(Gonna let Exe name it)
-Exes lighthouse which was there probably long before I joined. It is a huge tower standing in the water, with an underwater tunnel of glass(not yet finished). On top of the lighthouse stands a portal to the Netherworld, which has yet to be implemented into multiplayer mode!
Farmland
Exe's Ranch
Saph's Farm
-These are where most of the food comes from within the kingdom! We make sure that everyone always has plenty of food to use so that people aren't dieing from fights due to not being able to heal :) So Exe and I have built 2 cottages with a large plot of land next to it. I grow wheat and sugar cane, and with said wheat and sugar cane, Exe creates cakes, which are then placed in the dining hall underneath the castle! He also farms pork chops, milk, eggs, etc. from his ranch! They're easy to see on Muffins pictures :)

Exe is also building an underground/and above ground tunnel network which will probably eventually connect all GF members' homes on the server by Minecart!

But as ambitious as Exe and I are, it would look pretty unimpressive without the reason why its all even there. Dili and Muffins Castle Unicorn is really why it's even there. It is by far the most amazing thing, and has become a MASSIVE landmark on the server, it can be seen from FAR FAR away(Trust me I've tried, if you toggle on as far view as possible, you can see it from several hundreds of blocks away before it finally fades into mist!)

But no, between Muffin, Dili, Exe, Synge, ROFL, and ZXD, the castle is no longer just a massive naked castle as it was when I joined. As seen on the picture, it now has towers, a wall, huge underground arena(need pictures of it! Our spleef arena come on!)and much more. It has developped tremendously in very short time :)

[paecmaker]

holys**** you guys got much spare time. Keep postin pictures of funny,crazy and epic building.

[Jokersvirus]

Ahh so many things to grief on but no minecraft... Sad day indeed :(, nice pictures.

[Synge]

Aww, Muffin's cat looks so cute from high up. All great work guys. I didn't even know about the elven and dwarfish kingdoms, lookin great.

I'll have a few to post soon. Almost finished with what's been pullin me away from the SMP server lately :P

[Muffincat]

If you go to the train station in the castle, you can get to them by going to the far right mine track :) We need to put a sign up I think

Dili's already done some more work on the Dwarven place and it looks awesome!

[paecmaker]

I Just took a pic from my pyramid

http://www.gamers-forum.com/imagehosting/353134dd809b977658.jpg

[Saph]

O.o Thats an awesome pyramid bro XD

Although don't you need to set up some more torches? You must be getting alot of zombie and skeleton attacks?

[paecmaker]

Accually I played on peaceful. Before you start to rant at me, I can explain. I started at normal and begun digging the lake(it stands on a former lake) but after a long time I got tired and thought that I lost lots of time on the nights so I turned on peaceful to be able to work all the time. It still took very long time.(I mined everything so there is a huge pit(call it the pit of doom) 300 block away)

[Saph]

No rants here on peaceful :p actually didn't know there was such a thing...how do you get peaceful mode? I'd love to be able to build stuff without having to worry about getting an arrow through my chest for it!

[paecmaker]

No rants here on peaceful :p actually didn't know there was such a thing...how do you get peaceful mode? I'd love to be able to build stuff without having to worry about getting an arrow through my chest for it!

Well you just choose it in options. But I dont know if it can be done in mp, as you might know I play in offline mode.

[Saph]

Ooooohhhhh now that explains alot :p Yeah not sure if you can turn monsters off on multiplayer!

On the other hand...I remember on several occasions that a skeleton glitches for me, but everyone else in the game can't see it, yet I see it standing right there :S Maybe this is a hint on that peaceful mode can actually work on multiplayer too, that you simply don't see the monsters, and they don't see you?

[Muffincat]

Yes, you can, and there are dedicated servers for it... but we specifically chose to use W1CKED's server because he has monsters on. Every other multiplayer server I have played on hasn't had monsters.

[Lmarc]

How many stones am I going to get hurled at me if I butt in with my ignorance and ask what you guys are talking about and how I can... play? Is it a game?

[Muffincat]

Haha, no stones here :P

Minecraft is a game that costs about $20 and is a majestic sandbox game... Dili wrote a nice review (http://www.gamers-forum.com/showthread.php?t=19198) on it and I wrote a tutorial (http://www.gamers-forum.com/showthread.php?t=19347), if you are interested.

[Saph]

I wrote the 2nd chapter in Muffins tutorial! :D

[Synge]

I'm just about done. Only like 25% or so of the rescorces used are legit and dug/mined for. I started out mining all of my stone and ****, but by the time I finished the front wall of arches I realized the castle was gonna be crazy huge and it would be stupid not to cheat.. So I downloaded INVedit :P Still took a hell of a long time, I can't imagine the amount of time I would have spent had I mined for all my stone, especially the sandstone.. The bottom floor alone is roughly 7,300 blocks.

Anyway, it's much more impressive actually exploring it in-game but here are the screens ;D

My floating palace:

[Muffincat]

That's super awesomeee :3

[Diligence109]

that's awesome.
get back on the multiplayer server and build with us :P

[Lmarc]

Muffincat: I'm not sure if I'm in the position to accept that offer at this time, but much appreciated.

And Synge: those are indeed impressive. They remind me of the floating mountains in Avatar (just watched it a few days ago). Most excellent defense.

[Synge]

Thanks guys :)


that's awesome.
get back on the multiplayer server and build with us :P

Hahah, I'll be back on soon. I wanted to finish that caste so all of my MC time has been spent on SP. I would have switched it over and built it on the server, but without being able to use INVedit I probably would have given up, plus we already have a castle.

[paecmaker]

I am showing pics on my latest project, it is not as epic as yours and it is not finished so Im showing a pic of the early work.

[Diligence109]

You have friends to help you get resources and it never hurts having another castle!

edit: looking forward to seeing that place done, paec :) too bad you can't play on the server with us :(

[HamadaLFC8]

Omg I feel like crap now, I made a small square home with stone walls around it and thought that was pretty cool... now I dunno wtf :( hahaha

[paecmaker]

Its a good start.:)

[Muffincat]

Hamtaro, did you come onto W1CKED'S server? We'll have to coordinate a time to be there to help you out!

[HamadaLFC8]

Hamtaro, did you come onto W1CKED'S server? We'll have to coordinate a time to be there to help you out!

I tried connecting but it said "invalid login" :(

[Synge]

So I said I was gonna be back on the server but I guess I lied (no one was on the last couple times I logged anyway :( ). I started building "Boletarian Palace", level 1-1 in Demon's Souls (full scale) and have been adding to that for the past couple weeks.

Haven't gotten too far. Building the level got me back into DS so I started playing that instead :P As you can see, I have my body back in the second pic, beat Flamelurker first try NG++, I was happyy :D

http://www.gamers-forum.com/picture.php?albumid=200&pictureid=1111

Edit: ^ Just noticed that back gate looks a bit.. stubby. I'll have to make it taller.

http://www.gamers-forum.com/picture.php?albumid=200&pictureid=1112

Still got a ways to go..

[ROFLBRYCE]

Looks crazy awesome Synge! So can you actually "play through" this level in order? Or you just throwing bits and pieces of it all over haha

[Diligence109]

jesus synge get your badass minecrafting skillz over on our server already! I wanna see these epic buildings in person!

[Synge]

Thanks guys :D

You mean, can you go through the level in minecraft just as you would in Demon's Souls? Yup, I still have a long way to go, but so far I've got the entire left side done all the way up to the top of the castle wall (except for King Doran's place). Dunno if you've played the game or not but there are all these makeshift wooden stairs and **** that lead up through the ruin; All that is completed, just gotta add the little details, which I'll do after I finish the rest of the level, if I finish it...


jesus synge get your badass minecrafting skillz over on our server already! I wanna see these epic buildings in person!

Hahah, I knowww, I get these ideas of **** I wanna build, and even with help gathering the materials, it'd just take too long without cheating (I'm using INVedit on this one, just as I did on the castle I posted earlier)

[Diligence109]

Hahah, I knowww, I get these ideas of **** I wanna build, and even with help gathering the materials, it'd just take too long without cheating (I'm using INVedit on this one, just as I did on the castle I posted earlier)

I have no rebuttal to this except insisting that you should play with us, anyway

[CaptivatingBanana]

What is Minecraft about?

[ROFLBRYCE]

What is Minecraft about?

Mine resources, build cool stuff. That's about all xD But it's hard to find what you're looking for a lot of the time, and can take a long time to mine resources. That castle up there ^ is made out of 1x1 sized blocks, that you mine, so you can see mining and placing would take a lot of effort.

[HamadaLFC8]

All I have right now is my house, with stone walls and a ditch, and a garden. In my house i have an underground tunnel which leads to my mines. and that took a lot of time, so imagine how long roflbryce took .. actually don't its scary :p

Whaddaya mean how long I took? I've yet to do any mega-projects like that xD Or even been able to help for that matter. Your house is one-upping mine, as it's built into a cave with some tunnels for mines lol. Although I'm rather proud of my tree-fort on the GF server :D

Assuming you meant me ( :P ), I used INVedit (gave myself all the materials I needed), so I skipped the mining process. So far, I've probably spent roughly 30 hours on that Demon's Souls level, which averages to almost 2 hours a day, but I was sick last weekend and put in about 15 hours then sooo.

[CaptivatingBanana]

This sounds interesting. Do you need an amazing rig for this or what? All this talk of mining minerals and building stuff makes the screenshot look like an early World of Starcraft...

[ROFLBRYCE]

This sounds interesting. Do you need an amazing rig for this or what? All this talk of mining minerals and building stuff makes the screenshot look like an early World of Starcraft...

I've got a half-semi decent not really laptop that runs Minecraft. I can hit 58FPS on WoW, which isn't amazing, but I run Minecraft smoothly.

It could like a World of Starcraft, if you wanted it too. Could build a zerg world in the nether if you wanted....what's the nether? Come play with us and find out ;)

[HamadaLFC8]

Assuming you meant me ( :P ),

Oh yeah sorry I meant Synge :P my baddd

[Exentenzed]

The only thing i ever gave myself on Minecraft was TNT to quicken the mining part. :)

loads of fun actually. :)

[CaptivatingBanana]

What was the button to take a screenshot again?

[ROFLBRYCE]

What was the button to take a screenshot again?

Pretty sure it's F2, but I may be mistaken.

[Synge]

Working on a new project on the server, still got a bit of work to do, as you can see, missing a wall and still need to add floors. And glass.. Lots of glass...:

http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg71/lewisglewis/sdfsdsdf.png

http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg71/lewisglewis/ertsdfsd.png

[paecmaker]

nice, how long have you worked on that?

[Diligence109]

nice! I'm still hard at work on my project and wont have pics for a bit.

Really need to build that railroad back to the castle/your tower...

[Synge]

nice, how long have you worked on that?

Thanks man, probably like 4.5 hours or so, it's definitely the biggest legit project I've started.

Thanks Dili!

[Callanrobertson]

Post your screenshoots here any pictures you like and a description if possible. http://www.gamers-forum.com/picture.php?albumid=204&pictureid=1135 that's me standing in frount of my house!

If your wondering what texture pack im using, just ask :)

[Synge]

Good stuff Tray. Your texture pack hurts my eye though :P

Progress update on my Demon's Souls level, I'm moving along slowly, still a while before I'm finished..:

http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg71/lewisglewis/ds1.png

http://i245.photobucket.com/albums/gg71/lewisglewis/ds2.png

You'd be surprised at how well things are coming together. Sometimes I worry I've scaled something wrong, but the paths always end up connecting where they should.

[paecmaker]

holy ****, Synge have you dug down the ground there the castle stands on?

[Synge]

Hell no, used a world editor to clear that ****. Initially I was going to dig it myself, but then realized just how much space I was going to need.. The floor is a ways below sea level and those towers are still hitting clouds.

[paecmaker]

I didnt even know there was a world editor.

[Saph]

I've seen it around. For example the guy who's making a full scale Starship Enterprise from Star Trek? He's making it in a MASSIVE gray box, lol.

[Psychotray]

Sweet dude, I want to join that server :D

[paecmaker]

I have two plans now, my lake fortress and a subway system.

[Psychotray]

I have two plans now, my lake fortress and a subway system.

A subway system sounds good, you should do that :D

[paecmaker]

A subway system sounds good, you should do that :D

I am practicly done with the first station and am now building tunnels into the darkness.

[NeverDeefEated]

Wow. you guys are good. I need to level up my crafting skills.

[TigerBearPig]

^ LOL ikr? What I make is nothing compared to u guys...

Still got a ways to go..

did you/are you going to include the side area when you get pure world tendency and fight miralda? and are you gonna do all of world 1 or just 1-1? it'd take a lot longer to do the other areas too but it'd be sick. 1-3 would probably be incredibly annoying

[Synge]

My current goal is just to complete 1-1, including all inaccessible filler buildings, which I plan to make accessible. 1-2 wouldn't be too difficult so that's a definite possibility, but I don't plan on doing 1-3 and 1-4, that'd drive me insane :P

Edit: And yeah, I have a little bit done on the Miralda area, and plan on doing it all.

[EpsilonX]

My current goal is just to complete 1-1, including all inaccessible filler buildings, which I plan to make accessible. 1-2 wouldn't be too difficult so that's a definite possibility, but I don't plan on doing 1-3 and 1-4, that'd drive me insane :P

Edit: And yeah, I have a little bit done on the Miralda area, and plan on doing it all.

the only parts of 1-2 i think might be difficult is making the bridge the correct shape, but if you're feeling ambitious i think you should do it, cuz the tower knight area would look pretty epic i think. 1-3 and 1-4 would be retarded, unless you only did the big staircase path instead of all the side areas. that'd be seriously impressive though. of course, ive never played minecraft so i don't know exactly how difficult it actually would be to do any of this haha.

looks good though

Agreed, the T. Knight area would be sweet. If I'm not completely burnt out after finishing 1-1 I'll do it.

Some parts are hard, some aren't hard at all, others are really simple but time consuming. Like the front wall, wasn't hard but took a while, whereas the parts I posted in the update screens yesterday were a bit more tricky and took more planning.

Thanks :)

[EpsilonX]

the only part i think would be difficult would be getting the proportions correct

[paecmaker]

I have been working on my metro for some time now. I have so far two stations and am now building tunnels to my main central wich all tunnels will go to. The biggest problem now isnt digging tunnels, its having enough iron to make tracks.

I have partly solved the problem that tracks cant really be split in different cunctions but the solution demands more tracks. The solution you might ask? well the main station is one of the solution, with one hub that connects several lines with a few stations in each solves big part of that problem and the solution to the problem of how everyone should be able to travel to the main central is just add more tracks from every station, this however demands so much tracks that I wonder if I ever will be able to mine so much.

[Muffincat]

I have partly solved the problem that tracks cant really be split in different cunctions but the solution demands more tracks.

I'm not really sure what you're getting at, but you do know you can have an intersection switch via redstone, allowing you to have a track turn to either the right or left to connect to a different rail by pressing a button, right?

[Psychotray]

I just put a normal track as the corner track. I haven't had problems since doing so :)

[paecmaker]

That is what I meant, I didnt know you could do that with the redstone. :p

[Muffincat]

I don't know how to, but dili does it a lot; you should talk to him about it ^^

[Diligence109]

When you have a T intersection of rails you can power the rail at the intersection by powering it or the block it is attached to via redstone wire or torch and it will switch between it's two possible positions whether it is powered or unpowered. Through the use of buttons with delays, buttons with RS NOR latches, or a switch you can effectively use it as a controllable intersection.

If you have any more questions or want, I could write up a redstone tutorial on various train station building methods. Drop me a PM or visitor message and I'll do it up in a new thread so that we don't derail this one (pun intended).

[Tvae]

Well, cause Minecraft is pretty much all I play nowadays, and Epsilon likes to every once in a while redirect me to this site, here's a few of the things I've been working on... (All done by hand, both for collecting and placing materials. CAUSE THAT'S HOW I ROLL! Though I do play on peaceful...)

The Great Impossibility (No real point to this, I just wanted to do something semi-abstract.)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v98/lizzard98/TheGreatImpossibility.png

Del Serouth (Grape Farm. Note: This was before shears, meaning to get those grape rows, I had to repeatedly grow trees til they were the right height, then trim them to the right shape... Same with those shrubs.)

http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v98/lizzard98/DelSerouth.png

Canoris Major (No comment.)

[HamadaLFC8]

wow ..... amazing what some people do with this game...

[paecmaker]

yup, my subway looks like crap compared to these things.

[Synge]

I like the abstract thing, looks sweet.

[EpsilonX]

Wow, looks like you're hitting the bedrock. Any chance you could make a video tour of what you have so far? Or at least, screenshots of the inside? (such as, the beginning of the level where you have all the wooden platforms)

and at one point, after the dragon's bridge, there's a wooden door that doesn't open...can you make it so that opens?

the part in the bottom left corner of the top picture looks like the area in 1-3 where you kill the first fat minister and get the key ring

[Diligence109]

after getting to play demon's souls and then seeing what you're making, I just have to say JESUS CHRIST MAN THAT IS AWESOME

You should try hosting a minecraft server with that save as the world and I/others could help you build it! You'd be the mastermind behind it all, of course, but I'd love to be a grunt under your supervision and get to watch it all unfold.

I plan on making a full video tour after I finish, need to get Fraps though, never done any extensive recording so I only have the free version. I'm also thinking about putting the finished map up for download, haven't decided yet.

About the door: I plan to make all inaccessible areas in the game accessible eventually. For now only the main path is my focus. After I finish the 'filler' buildings though, I'll start work on connecting them to the main path. So the castle will actually be significantly larger in what's explorable than in the game.

Thanks man!

That's actually a sweet idea, I'll look into it. Depending on how many people join in, maybe building 1-3 and 1-4 wouldn't seem so ridiculous.

well, you can get to the other side of the door, you just have to go around. It's right after the bridge with the dragon. It always bugged me that you couldn't go through there.

also, for added challenge, in 2-1 if you look down and to the right while on the bridge, there's a town in the distance. make that accessible :D you probably wouldn't have enough room though...

How long did you spend making it Synge?

[Synge]

Dunno, lost track. I've been working on it off and on since May. Lately, I've been trying to put in at least an hour a day cause I really just want to get it done. I'm expecting to be done this month, and I seem to be moving quickly, especially now that I've finished a majority of the places your character (in Demon's Souls) is able to go.

[EpsilonX]

thinkin you're gonna add 1-2 on as well? or are you sick of it now? I'm sure 1-2 would be a lot easier, as it's just a bridge and one big room instead of a whole castle.

[Synge]

I'm not sure, maybe I'll do that instead of trying to make all random buildings accessible. If I end up setting up a server I'll definitely do it.. if I get enough people.

I'm dreading the landscaping, it's probably gonna be really tedious.

[Slay]

Can I help on this project of yours synge?
I can give some photos up to prove I am a good builder. :3

[EpsilonX]

he's doing it on single player

[Slay]

Hm, well, I still wanna help make it...
Lol, GIMMZ THE MAHP NOW

Hahaa, he's going to die for looking straight at him.

Not if he stays looking at him.. lol..

[paecmaker]

ok, enough with the cute endermen, this thread isnt about him, its about pictures of minecraft builds.

[Synge]

Sorry if I post too frequently about this, but I put in almost 10 hours this weekend.. (we're having pretty ****ty weather, don't judge me :P) So time for an update.

If I do set up a server, I guess we'll just end up working on doing 1-2 and possibly 1-3 and 1-4 cause it looks like I'll be finishing 1-1 myself soon..

Most of what I have left is landscaping and detailing.

I'll be happy when I'm done, I've had fun doing it but I'm ready for something else. I'll probably take a break from MC and get into some other games..

[Slay]

Synge I said earlier I would help, I am a really great builder. Please let me join.
Yes, I know it is SP, just send me a copy of that map, I am so desperate for a project right now, MC is getting boring. :/

[Synge]

You ever play/have Demon's Souls?

It's likely I'll put the map up for DL after I finish btw, but I haven't decided.

Edit: Or why not try another game? You like fallout yeah? Try to rebuild one of the towns or something if you're lookin for a project.

Not that part, I am really good with scenery.
:P

Although that is a good idea... after I finish yours. >:P

[EpsilonX]

His is a replica of the first level of Demon's Souls. You can't build it if you've never played it.

[Slay]

I can build landscape... >.>

[Synge]

The landscape needs to be the same as in game as well.. There are lots of cliffs and such.

[Slay]

Hm, well, I will keep you updated on my fallout project.
It wont be to the game, it will be my own fallout scene. :3

[Synge]

Sounds cool, you should make it an adventure map, that'd be sweet.

[Slay]

I do everything by hand, this is going to take awhile.. :P

[EpsilonX]

I really wanna do a reimagining of the Pokemon worlds. The one I see posted on reddit is basically a block by block recreation of pokemon, i'd rather actually like...interpret it and make it more "realistic"

[Slay]

FOUND A WAY COOL SEEED
Flat Ground Please Oh **** Please
You start off in a really cool area with a lava pit, and a water pit below water level. :O

[Synge]

I tried it just for the hell of it and spawned in a huge (and actually pretty awesome) desert biome.. The biggest I've come across actually

[Slay]

Thats the seed I gave you? >.>
That is not the effect I got lol..

[Synge]

That's, "Flat Ground Please Oh -Sh*t- Please", maybe you were saying "Flat Ground Please Oh -Fu*k- Please", but either way, I didn't get what you described.. :P

[Slay]

Oh F please was the one I used, lol, on it, turn around and climb, theres the water pit, at that point, turn to your left, there's a lava pit. :3

[Synge]

Ahh, now I found it. There's another larger surface lava pool close by too. Up the hill near the first pit and straight and slightly to the left.

[Synge]

New screen of rivers in 1.8

Still don't like the idea of giant shrooms but I'll reserve judgement until the update.

[Diligence109]

jesus synge. Copy that world file and host a server from your computer. I want to see this firsthand and I bet at least me and eps would help you build!

[Samus-Fan]

What texture pack is the Synge?

[Synge]

Assuming you both are referring to my DS build:

Dili: I've actually finished 1-1 and only have landscaping left (and it's really annoying trying to get it right..) But if you guys wanna help me continue on and try 1-2 and maybe 1-3/1-4 I'll think about setting up a server (I'm not sure even I will wanna continue on wit world one.. I'm sick of looking at it :P I could beat all of 1-1 with my eyes closed at this point.

Samus: It's 128x Swiss Rustic. I highly recommend it, it's my fav texture pack, and doesn't have the graininess of most high def packs.

Lol, I remember that,

[paecmaker]

Bump.....

There was long time since anyone posted here so if you got any new awesome places feel free to post them here.

I am personally building a castle, I have lots of pictures just waiting to be showed here, I just want to come a little further to the finish.

[paecmaker]

Ok (sorry for double post)


I am working on a castle and here is what I ahve done so far

http://i1107.photobucket.com/albums/h388/paecmaker/2012-01-06_215754.png

What you see here is the front wall and a defense tower(a bastion). Im am building a similar on the other way and then I shell continue with the wall.

I havnt started on the actual castle yet.

[egg-whites333]

nice looks sweet i found a npc village i may post a pic just incase no one has seen one

Damn creepers in my rainbow sheep farm. And lol at that paper clip

[egg-whites333]

ya dont know what it is but atleast its worry free gun powder :3

My newest base on the server (which was basically a waste of time, cause 2 days after I built it Jeb announced jungle biomes would require new worlds -.- )

And here's a house I was building on the server, with a photo of the RL house I was replicating. (the screenie is from SP, I quit building it on the server and finished in creative mode cause it was taking too long)

Seriously though, there are 30+ of them running around at all times. It's actually kind of annoying.

[CraeSC111]

Better than being exploded on by 50+ creepers in a row. Completely stopped my construction

Did you light the area up before starting the build? I always lay down a good 2 stacks of torches before I start anything.

Even your treehouse is pretty poorly lit :P

The new updates always rekindle my interest, they've been adding and fixing a lot of stuff.

[CraeSC111]

My treehouse is poorly lit because I don't really care about it. And I always seem to miss 1 area. Then creepers spawn and blow up torches. More creepers instantly spawn etc etc

[ROFLBRYCE]

I didn't know server got reset :( I miss my stuff lol

[CraeSC111]

Make new stuff! I can start you off with plants

[paecmaker]

Pretty massive bump.

Its been a long time since anyone posted here, so I wonder if anyone got any more buildings(or playing minecraft at all)?

It was a long time since I played but I think I should start again.

[CraeSC111]

I have been slowly working towards making a nice village for the villagers. Nowhere near done though.

[paecmaker]

I have just started making skyrim inspired places (not the whole map, only certain parts of interest). For now I work on Helgen (the fortress you start the game in)

[paecmaker]

I am still working on Helgen(its been pretty slow) I know it doesnt look exactly like the real thing and there are certain things I dont really like myself. Also its not complete yet, I have yet done one of the towers and a wall as well as the actually fortress.
