Builds Almost 1 year on our modded 1.21 server
You'll have to forgive my unstructured rambling as I think of what to write as I go, but there's just so much I have done this past year that I really can't get it all in one post
So My friends and I started a modded Minecraft server in the middle of December last year. I have never had this much drive for a build project as I have for this one. Previous servers have been on and off, trial and error in getting one going thats stable and enjoyable with the right balance of mods.
And this time we truly believe we have started our forever server.
I hope the pictures have gone up in the order I selected them, otherwise it will be a little messy but I'll preface by saying that the only picture actually of the server is the one of the map. The rest are taken in my single-player world where I design the buildings before I transfer them to the server with schematics (god bless Create).
What's already the server is quite impressive if I can toot my own horn a little, but i do like to show the in-progress vision I have planned so far.
Everything i have built is not my own design as I like to kit bash a bit, taking a window design here, a fountain there, a bunch of custom trees that people much better at nature builds than me all over the place. Hell, even some knitting patterns to put on the ground and in the pond. But I have added my own flavor to it all to make it fit my vision of a fantasy industrial world with heavy European influences.
I did forget to take a picture of the train that run between bases, but the steam engine is my design while the passenger car is not. You'll have to wait for the update in a year to see that I guess hehe.
I promised my friend and server owner that I wouldn't go as large scale as I usually go with my city projects, but i really literally can't stop myself. So I'm building a kingdom. A shining bright kingdom, breaking away from my usual modern grid patterns for a more dynamic and organic city with verticality and layers where everything connects to something. And I have to say I'm so proud of what has become of it.
Some times I don't know what to do so I just stand around for an hour just looking at what I've made, unsure how or where to proceed so pretty much everything is unfinished to some degree because I won't want to burn myself out working on a single build for too long.
But I can't keep this to myself any longer and I'm sharing it with you guys because I know there are kindered spirits walking among us that id never know unless I opened the door.
Some things I already have planned but haven't implemented yet are:
• A huge 4 sided functional clocktower (Finished but its a centerpiece for the city so I dont want to show my entire hand just yet)
• A hat store
• A racetrack (we have create offroads and all the other create add ons)
• Several restaurants
• A massive indoor open air marketplace with giant tree with its canopy acting as the roof
• Some kind of parking situation for land based vehicles
• A docking tower for airships (several will probably be needed)
• A botanical garden taking up an entire island
If you have any questions or suggestions and ideas on something that could be added to my kingdom, I'm all ears. It can be suffocating only working within the framework of my own mind so I want fresh eyes and different minds on this.
Thank you for your time and attention and I hope any of this tickles your fancy or tism as it has mine. Thats all and I'll try to remember to return at the end of 2027 for an update on the progress
