VGHVI Minecraft: May 25, 2017
Pictures from the May Minecraft session:
First, the obligatory wandering around and glitch pictures:
The sky at sunrise
Lots of octopi waiting for the water to fill in
A pig is taking a swim
A loading glitch at the side of a mountain
Another loading glitch
I don’t think this is a loading glitch, I think this is a result of algorithm changes between when the segments were generated
A hole in the snow
Nighttime view of the roller coaster tower
Nighttime view of the megatree
A glass door in a hillside
Mountains in the distance across a field
An evening view next to a lava pool in that field
I decided that I wanted to start building something; I didn’t want to build completely from scratch, though, I wanted to find something in the environment that a structure would fit naturally into. And eventually I found a mountain with an oddly flat top, I thought a fort might fit well on top.
Thinking of putting a building on top of this
A rock/water/lava combo when exploring the ravine under the mountain
A top view that gives an entirely misleading notion of the height
You can see the height difference (including the hole in the middle) much better from this angle
Starting to place the outside wall
Looking through one of the windows at sunset
One version of window placement at an inside corner
Another version of window placement
The view to the outside, not sure which direction this is in
The view down the middle
Another outside view; I think this is towards the back?
The outside wall is in place
Looks way too bland from the outside, though
Seeing what it would look like with stone bricks instead
Experimenting with something different in the corner
I still need to figure out what to do with the corner, and then do the same to the rest of the wall. More of a problem is that I actually don’t know yet what I want to do with the walls in the other two directions: I don’t know how to handle the wall next to the central hole, or even whether I want there, and also how I want to handle the transition from the stone area of the top to the grass / tree area of the top. So I’ll try to figure that out next time. (And I hope I can find the location again! Maybe I should build a train there from the spawn point?)
Finally, some pictures from Pat’s latest addition to his floating city:
The ground floor of the building
Bookshelves and chair on the second floor
A bed on the other side of the room
There are books on both sides of the bookshelves, with an access passage between it and the wall
Stay away from the attic!
An outside view
