Description: (Skip to composition if you're not fond of reading)
Producing detailed builds with vanilla textures without feeling like you've just toggled shadows to low on a AAA title is a disciples not easily mastered. True, it offers a reasonable potential when breaking the scale, adding seasoning with fancy renders, toggling shaders, or boasting a beefy system that offers that ever-so-slightly visual effect that makes you feel like nothing really changed while your GPU chokes on vsync drama in the background.
Point is, when using no texture pack you often feel tempted to drink that sus potion that makes a wobbling screen more exciting.
My latest build took an unreasonable amount of time to complete, simply because I had to focus on virtually all aspects of building to make a monochromatic color selection not only palatable, but functional and exciting on a reasonable scale. Debug gymnastics, o'l barrier-block implementation, ghost frames, and WorldEdit were stripped to the bone; consequently furnishing an end result that look and feel spiced up and balanced without disturbing displacement that can actually hurt visual consistency when moving closer to a structure.
Additionally, the interior was an absolute time killer. The process felt like building a Lego masterpiece while a toddler is edging closer with that ceremonial hand-to-mouth gesture that can effortlessly reduce a miniature empire to a heap of pony vomit.
Replacements were frequent, angles reconsidered, and monotony a burden that had to be dispelled with CrossFit level persistence. Of course, everything would have been easier with a scale that rims the clouds, but a towering build is best reserved for cathedrals and monoliths that deserve such an intimidating posture.
It's fair to say, without a verbosity, that the build is packed with enough content to keep a server alive and protected while enjoying the visual nuances of effort and commitment that entails adventure and creativity pumped into a mansion with proud and unapologetic appeal.
There is of course a ton of factors that should be mentioned and pointed out considering the effort and time put into something conventionally labeled a "build". But with all formalities aside, she can be summarized thus-
Build Composition:
- 20 Bedrooms (Perfect for a server)
- 4 Restrooms
- 2 Kitchens
- 4 Fireplaces
- 3 Swimming pools
- 2 Workshops
- 3 Aquariums (Excluding those in rooms)
- 2 Enchantment rooms
- 2 Dinning areas
- 2 Storage rooms
- Library
- Office
- Gym
- Tennis court
- TV room
- Lounges
- Living room
- Small garden
- Outdoors hangout
- Jacuzzi
- Pavilion
- Outdoors Dining area
- Vantage points
- Interconnected access to all areas
- Balanced light placement (snakes and ladders are boring without the snakes)
- Invisible frames, barrier blocks and debug implementation
- Cohesive interiors
- Carefully structured environment (painstaking)
- Performance mods (don't really need it for vanilla builds)
- And a well rounded atmosphere that makes you feel at home
She might be up for an upgrade somewhere in the future. Or simply just part of another build come the morrow. With some strange affairs being animated in our realm, you never know what mother earth has up her sleeve when observing the artificial nature of what man does to her beauty for selfish gains. Nevertheless, a broader upgrade is contemplated and probable.
