Probably make the village a lot bigger, maybe add in some rooftop fighting. Oh and a large bell tower please.

Also, try to make the bases more balanced. And hopefully add a moat to the castle? I figured for this map blue would be more defensive.

If indestructible block are implemented this will be the best map ever. Seriously, this looks amazing! Good work!

agreed with above

Can people shut the fuck up about indestructible blocks?
A static map in this game is boring.
The point is to change the environment to adapt to changes in the game.
This map will be bad ass seeing it all pristine, then slowly get destroyed by war over time.

Yeah if indestructible blocks were implemented I wouldn't use them. The whole point of a castle is to fend off attacks.

Not too much progress to show today, I just redid the houses to look more medieval and detailed. (and an old undetailed one on the right to compare it to)

The village will be bigger, but it wont be too large, because I want there to be some open fields/forests too. As for a large bell tower, the cathedral bell towers are already pushing the height limit.
Both castles will have rivers that force tunnelers to get close to the castle to attack.

"The un-used area in the corners should be farms with little water filled trenchs in the fields. "

Already the plan!

"Looks pretty cool, but this map will need a reset at least every hour or so."

It will be reset fairly often. We'll probably adjust it based on how long it takes to destroy everything.

so badass

love the medieval touch

it seems laserpanda's post broke. someone should fix it.

I just jizzed.

That editing program isn't Voxed. What are you using laserpanda?

You can MineCraftEdit this? I'm not sure if all the blocks and slabs can convert into a VXL format.

Wow. Just literally.. Wow. I've so got a project for you when you're ready to take on another biggish-one!

I'm using a minecraft to voxed converter made for the Facepunch server. It's not publicly released yet.

HOLY S**T I NEED THE CONVERTER
*calms*
This map epic. 'nuff said.

Two things:
ONE
Really liking the town! I went to the battlefields of the First World War in Flanders a couple of years ago and the Cathedral and what-not gave me some pleasant memories!

This is an interesting town to emulate:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ypres

Ypres was destroyed COMPLETELY in the war but since then, everything has been rebuilt in a Mediaeval sort of style. It's a very beautiful little town indeed, I'd commend you to look at photographs of it if you need some inspiration.

TWO
This is an orgy of detail for detail's sake, but look at this picture:
http://go-louey-go-4-acrf-great-wall-china.net/yahoo_site_admin/assets/images/FOR057PlateF.25944444_std.jpg

It's an illustration of the cross-section of the Great Wall of China. Most thick stone walls made to stand the test of time like this were actually filled with sand most of the time which could hold the walls together better as well as being cheaper to build. So you might want to have the "colours" of the wall (because there's no such thing as materials in this game, only colours) in this order: 2 blocks of wall, 2 blocks of sand, 2 more blocks of wall.

Please reply! I look forward to hearing more about this map

This is just wow. Registered to the forum just to say this cause that is one hell of a map.

zomg! we need this nao!1

How goes the progress?

I have but one humble request.

When you finish the map, could you make a post on the subreddit as well?

This map could use medieval mods, like crossbows

@Brigadier:

Crossbows would work well ^

I'm wondering how this map has gone so far? there's been no recent news in four days, and now I'm exaggeratedly, annoyingly wanting to know, what happened?

Map 'developer' has gone lazy, I think.. that happens easily. Or perhaps he surprises us with a huge BOMB!

he actually died.

he was surprised by a huge BOMB!

You guys best be kidding about the death of this guy, because I so want this map to be finished.

BOREDOM: #1 world's best killer.

@Lokiamis: I have to admit that that was funny. Shall I be your new waifu?

@Peschken: "You guys best be kidding about the death of this guy, because I so want this map to be finished."

I know right? What a shame if he died. Too bad we didn't hear that news on the internet and can't assume it was a joke.

Sorry about the lack of updates, I've been working on terrain, and trying to get the river planned out the way i want it, so theres not much to show (Also I got terraria so that killed a few days)

I should have more time to work on the map this weekend, so I'll try to post screenshots of it then.

Wow, this is fantastic laser! I can't wait to download and host this when it's done. =) Your attention to detail is amazing.
