The first two buildings - a sleeping center and town center - in Votma (excluding the dock and canals). Will eventually form an, as of yet, unnamed city. (If anyone wants to name it, feel free to

)

The duck looks cool on the map

so i upgraded some infrastructure including the creation of wide ice road "ramps" up to entrances, and created a stable with 8 cells (up to 2 horses per cell) next to the konisshi horse portal

Bla · « **Reply #8883 on:** April 16, 2016, 09:20:00 AM »

Nice, but if it's a horse portal, wouldn't it be nice to have at least 4 blocks tall? Otherwise you suffocate when demounting inside it. Also nice to have some stairs around the portal I think.

I should have time to play some Blacraft this week

OH that's how you do it?!?!?!? I always demounted beforehand and pushed the horse in kol

also i didn't know you get 4 blocks tall when demounting. that's annoying

Tuto and Darvince, what do you think of constructing a road along the cyan route here?

Do any of you want to do it, should I do it or?

tuto99 · « **Reply #8888 on:** April 18, 2016, 01:17:45 PM »

Hmm, I don't mind. But maybe you can do it? Because I'm not sure I have much stone at all. But I can always assist you.

Darvince · « **Reply #8891 on:** April 18, 2016, 03:52:52 PM »

i will play that road because there's some things in akanaki it needs to avoid/pass by/etc

behold, the greatest render in blacraft history (which cost me $15 to make)

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42218552/chunkyrender/world/index.html

and since this will probably take at least 5 minutes to load, and doesn't zoom very well, here's a direct link to the image

https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/42218552/chunkyrender/world/picture.png

among the things you can spot in this image are :
multiple players -- some which are several hundred blocks from spawn
a building in matolony and the guardian farm nearby
kaeshar light house
soviet japan
akenakii
forssa farms
fiah's first iron farm
guodesia
like a million old settlements you forgot existed or whose existence you never learned of but now you can!

The Creative world is up again.

Also Blacraft turned 5 years recently

blotz · « **Reply #8895 on:** April 19, 2016, 12:41:51 PM »

happy blacraft day

Bla · « **Reply #8896 on:** April 19, 2016, 01:18:13 PM »

Tomorrow it's 5 years since Matty built Ampluterra Outpost
Today it's 5 years since I built stuff anything else than Epicland Hillhouse and Spawntown Town Center (which were from March 22)

vh · « **Reply #8897 on:** April 19, 2016, 02:10:40 PM »

so i fixed the zooming and now you can zoom super close in and far out. you're still gonna have to be patient because loading takes like 2 minutes
and i also added some annotations -- and there are at least 6 players visible in the render

Here's an adventure for everyone:

Quote

Related to the recent 5 year anniversary of Blacraft, here is a small adventure. Go to Spawntown Library and read this book. After reading it, you should be able to guess what to do.

In at least maybe 20 hours or so, the stuff may be revealed to the public.

After reading the book, please put it back in the chest so others can read it.

i shall read it this weekend

vh · « **Reply #8902 on:** April 21, 2016, 07:53:41 PM »

wait what do you mean 20 hours before the book is available or 20 hours before the secrets of the adventure are released to the public

maybe you could wait a bit longer so those of us who aren't immediately available can play the mystery

Bla · « **Reply #8903 on:** April 22, 2016, 04:05:19 AM »

Sure I can wait more than 20 hours. And I meant before releasing the sikrits.

I just don't have much time in the weekend

I think the secrecy period is up, it's been 5 days since Blacraft Nostalgia started.

Some before and after shots of Aahrus:

Bla · « **Reply #8909 on:** April 26, 2016, 03:01:02 PM »

Nice. And yes, the secret was that a new world is available through a portal in Epicland. The new world is Nostalgia which is stitched together from a collection of old backups so that many central locations in the regular world appear in their original state. It is a big amount of work to stitch together so it doesn't have locations from after 2012 and some areas don't have their corresponding parts in the regular world anymore. But maybe those places, including Lavaank and the mountains south of Revolute De Snow, add a bit to the nostalgia.

The world is now shown on Dynmap and the portals connecting it to the Overworld. It is running in adventure mode in order to preserve it.
