Would love to make it a group project so long as we all agree on a concrete design of it. Since you're in charge of Old Towne, where should it go?

somewhere big enough to fit it
personally I think it'd look better in the upper/higher part of town as opposed to the lower part
Where is the "upper part" of town exactly
Also, I have a mending enchanted book to give away to anyone who wants it. There's just one downside to it - it also has the Curse of Binding attached.
[QUOTE=Emperor Scorpious II;52219013]Where is the "upper part" of town exactly[/QUOTE]
it's roughly the part that's higher up (more hilly)
my reasoning is that a cathedral would probably look more impressive from the top (or towards the top) of a hill instead of being at the bottom of it
I decided to start work on it. To allow for future modifications and people to join in, i'm starting with a smallish Roman chapel so that future architectural styles (romanesque, gothic, baroque, etc) can be added onto it by other people if they want and it looks like it was developed over time
Its done. Change up what you like and how you like it, modify the design (i left a line of torches to the north of the church for the limit of northern expansion right now)
SO...I need portal help...I made a portal for my and Jammy's tunnel, and now the portal to bonezone doesnt work any more... it takes you to our tunnel instead of bonezone...help!
Take your overworld coordinates for the new portal, divide them by 8, and build a portal there in the nether.
[QUOTE=El Periodista;52228571]Take your overworld coordinates for the new portal, divide them by 8, and build a portal there in the nether.[/QUOTE]
So, the issue is it keeps linking the bone zone portal to the jammy and wuvs portal. so now the bonezone portal in the nether randomly chooses if it sends you to bone zone or to my portal
Is the Bonezone portal lined up properly?
[QUOTE=El Periodista;52228605]Is the Bonezone portal lined up properly?[/QUOTE]
bonezone normal portal: 465 14 -464
Confused Portal in Nether: 58 78 -58
My portal: 495 44 -420
ok so. the only solution seems to be to make the portals 128 apart. which means I have to move the bonezone portal to the wall in the anvil area across from the room with the enchanting table. and I have to completely rebuild my room on the other side of where I was originally planning to put it. which sucks but it is what it is. Bonezone owners, would you be OK if I make the move?
Don't do anything. I'll fix the portals tomorrow.
[QUOTE=The Pretender;52229066]Don't do anything. I'll fix the portals tomorrow.[/QUOTE]
Ok. will leave it as is.
Should be fixed.
[QUOTE=The Pretender;52230539]Should be fixed.[/QUOTE]
Definitely not fixed. The Bone Zone Portal just took me to my portal.
Fixed for real this time.
As mayor of Spawn, when I return, I will make it my FIRST priority to encourage development of any and all kinds. This is why I have thought of the Second Spawn Modernization and Transportation act, and thus have laid out some basic zoning, along with some goals I want to achieve:
[img]http://i.imgur.com/C1HRvol.png[/img]
Color Codes:
[B]Blue:[/B] CMX-5
[B]Green:[/B] CMX-3
[B]Maroon:[/B] CMX-1
[B]Pink:[/B] Park/Public Space
[B]Yellow[/B] Special Area (WTC, eventually Fulsy Field)
The area highlighted in Red is Loriborn's property. There was some talk of cutting that property in to allow for more city development, and I think that could work very well. Lori, if you're still online, PM me and we can work out a deal here.
Nothing here has really changed drastically, so I propose some new zoning (in addition to existing zoning) that I'd like to run by you all first:
[img]http://i.imgur.com/mtZL0FD.png[/img]
[B]New Zone- Purple:[/B] Old City
With this new zoning, the city would naturally develop taller buildings to the south and west (provided we use some of Lori's property that is currently barren), and also a bankside park near to the Grand Central Park.
Lastly, I really like the idea of Old Spawn being a thing. I myself will begin building some projects there, and I will encourage others to follow suit (Incoming, this is your time to shine). Smaller but more compact buildings with hidden secrets and old architectural styles sounds really appealing to me.
As for the roads situation, I understand that it is currently ABYSMAL. I will try to widen roads everywhere, and have more buildings setback from narrow streets to try and get rid of that claustrophobic feel some people have been talking about.
All of this will begin relatively soon. This is my last week of school, after which I should be totally free for awhile barring work.

I like the idea of guaranteeing that no tall buildings will be built in the east, because I purposefully built my ice village (directly east of the new zoning area) to be away from the buildings of spawn looming over it.
If we are rezoning, can I please request the random makeshift farm and stable that is in that picture in the top right (direct east of the new purple zone) be destroyed? I will be building an underground farm area in the tunnel between my and Jammy's areas which is free to be used by anyone as long as they replant. Will also have more than just wheat.
could I get whitelisted? Nickname KREAYSHAWNXXX

What does the 'CMX-' stand for?
Overall I'm for these changes and will gladly help where needed.
I would question changing the rail link which links spawn to Old Town (I prefer this name to Old City as well, it's more of a town that skyscrapers). I quite like this going above ground and then into the hillside to pop out again, it feels real and pretty neat. This rail link will be necessary because it can continue East. We could still build in that area so I don't think it will stop expansion north of spawn, we would just need to be more creative - i.e building around and over it. I planned to build a skyscraper which would loop over a road, I'd be happy to build this over that rail track if allowed. Something like this [url=http://i64.tinypic.com/qnwm10.png]this.[/url] Though I'd like to build it out of concrete whenever that gets added... Just picture that rail link with buildings around it, roads going under it etc, like [url=https://northwestphotos.files.wordpress.com/2011/05/100_3662.jpg]this.[/url]
What exact rails are going to be removed/changed?
If possible, I'd like to maintain the entrance to my horse park. I realise it it zoned to be high-rise buildings but if we can build this structures with that entrance in mind I would appreciate it (:. Saying that, will the slither of park continue southwards?
Just my 2 pennies.
[editline]16th May 2017[/editline]
Also, looking at the dynamap there appears to be a large amounts of trees being chopped down North / Northwest of spawn. Are these being cleared for constructions or should we be replanting them?

CMX is a term used by most American cities to denote commercial/mixed use real estate. The higher the number, the taller the building can be. I just used it to sound more formal :v:
You have a point in saying we could creatively build around it.
Gotcha thanks! I thought it was something to do with that haha :)
I just feel like we should work with what we currently have without annoying anyone involved. Everyone just wants to have fun and build stuff (:
The train track junction [url=http://i66.tinypic.com/off9t.png]here[/url]. Could we make a bigger deal of that by having it link to both Sobs station and also the underground station? Some kind of round a bout or something with redstone so you could choose which direction you want to go.
Welp, I'm not sure how much I will be able to join now, if at all.
I've been busy with work, and when ever I have free time I spend it on other things.
my IG is zpz_
I'm in DC and OH MY GOD THE COFFERED CEILINGS ON THE METRO DEAR SWEET MERCIFUL LORD THEY ARE BEAUTIFUL.

I found a better one. US Department of Energy.
Glorious, massive coffers to support a building entirely on pillars above the road.
I've been slowly watching the land around my forest cottage be turned into urban areas :( spawn is slowly reaching me.
It's called progress, that housing bubble isn't going to inflate itself
I love the feeling of community I get whenever I play on the server, even if I'm not a big part of it
Like, I saw a path in the Nether with a signpost that said Wildenholt. I had a house in Wildenholt on the old server and I thought I'm going to check it out. I come across a house with a pretty big storage with everything organized nicely, I think to myself "This is definitely Pretender, I used to "borrow" his things on the old server". And yeah, it was Pretender's house :v:
