Looking forward to getting in the game with you guys!

Macromod is updated to 1.6.4, as is Optifine. Rei's is still not updated. :(


@rkeenjr This is a compilation of numerous building guides: The Gigantic Guide for Building

I'm still not much of a builder, but it's helped me quite a bit! Sorry if it doesn't have quite what you're looking for

Previous Towns | Newerth, Braavos
Why did you leave (if applicable) | I left Newerth for Braavos because it got boring, and I went inactive and got kicked from Braavos
Why do you want to join Volantis | I already know some people here, and I thought I'd join them.
Why would Volantis want you | I dunno. I can barely PvP, I'm not as active as I could be, etc. Probably the only thing that'll help me get in the town is that I've been in a town with Jonsoon, Hilltim, and LightningCape.
Tell us about yourself | I would, but I'm lazy.

Are there any good resources on how to use different blocks to make different looking building structures? I want to learn more advanced level techniques to building in Minecraft and seem to find sites that show you how to build very basic buildings.

Rick
Hey, my best advice on this is first figure out what you want to build. Then google "minecraft <thing you want to build>". Look at pictures and perhaps you'll even find a slideshow or timelapse. Get ideas, see how different materials behave when you build like that or like this. Make some builds, and keep in mind that shape is often more important than using different blocks.


@Hanpeter77 : hey, remember me from Newerth? Nice to see you again :)

Hey all, I have a question for the development of Volantis. How do we want the city to look? I think it would be cool if it did indeed have some similarities to the city Volantis from ASOIAF, with it having a lot of sand stone arches, a grand harbour on the mouth of a river, things like that would be cool. Plus having an idea of how one wants the city to look before starting the construction is always a good idea.

We do have a general idea of what we are looking for and yes, it does involve lots of sandstone. I am still waiting to see what township region sizes are going to look like before we continue forward.

Previous Towns | Will just list this previous map because I don't want to type a book. Excelsum, Braavos, Newerth, Belegost, Camelot
Why did you leave (if applicable) | Inactivty within those towns,differences with other players, mayoral opportunities, school
Why do you want to join Volantis | Mainly because Aryios is in it. I know a few people in here too.
Why would Volantis want you | I'm a longstanding member of the community so I know the ropes pretty well. I consider myself to be one of the more mature, laid back people on the server.
Tell us about yourself | I'm currently a college student so my time will be limited ingame but I will do my best to be here whenever I can. Most of you already know quite a bit about me so I'm not quite sure what else to put here.
