MPC Castle

[Vendetta]

Well, I got bored last night, so I looked up some videos on Minecraft.  About 1 hour after watching videos, I went into my good world and started making a castle.  Yes I am using cheats to get the materials, but not the normal ones, I've been forced to use the duplicating cheat in order to get all my stone.  Most people that make these things usually use things like InvEdit.  I can't, because my dads a cheapy and doesn't want to upgrade from Mac OSX 10.4 to 10.5 (Tiger to Leopard I think the names are).  Trust me, I've tried every one of em.  So, I said screw, I'll duplicate all the stuff I need.  Here are some screenies.

All the walls are up:


A Golden Walkway!:


A Hot Tub Waterfall with a Fireplace:


The Golden Throne:


The top floor is done, just need to add the top towers:


The castle as it is now:



So ya, I'm making this castle for MPC, as an experiment and to have some fun.  I'll probably be leaving the front wall and part of the top floor open for lighting purposes.

List of what needs to be done:
4 Towers
4 Walls
Castle Stairway
Top Floor Done
Medieval look

Ideas and suggestions are appreciated!

Looking great! I'd love to have the save game file too!

This is pretty cool! Upload it so we can mess around with it!

If we ever get a server, perhaps this can be our base...

The maps been uploaded, you can find it at the bottom of the first post.  You get as much done thats in the last picture.  Now its up to you!

Back to work now.  If anyone has some suggestions on what to build, i.e. a roller coaster, water falls/moats, lava falls/moats, speak up and I'll make a list of what all I can do and I can get to.  Note that nothing will entirely be worked on until the bare backbone of the castle has been made up.

More stuff added.  Check out the pictures, its practically all I've done today.

Nooo, save me the biggest room (with a double bed  ) No but seriously great Job, and yes I think that should be our base.

A Ditch (all around the castle) with a front gate
Archer windows to shoot true
4 higher points of the castle (towers)
Atleast one flag, could be the MPC sign
A front post for intellegence (if they are going to be attacked)
A small village surrounding the castle for their supply needs
lol, the sword excalibur
an outdoor wall (second line of defense) (with towers in the wall)
Secret doorways...

lol sorry that's what you get when you study history... ;__;

I do think it looks real good

Nice ideas Verik, they're what I'm thinking of doing for a few days/weeks.  The castle was starting to bore me a bit, I took a little break from that and looked up some more videos.  I'll be adding some other things as well, like an underwater area:


I've gotten a bigger area further down the steps, I just gotta get the sand to soak up all the water sources, which is a serious pain.  But its fun.


And I've already done the archer towers:

As you can see in middle, I've put the foundation for the top of the tower up already too, and thats where I stopped to start the underwater area.

Started back up on the castle today.  Got the upper tower done, and a couple lava walls as well!




And the basic open part of the underwater facility is done:


I'm most likely going to have a snow day tomorrow.  I'll hopefully be able to work on it all day then.

My voice is somewhat hard to hear at times, but it just shows you around at least.
