    I don't know what I was messing up, but I could not posses the mob, even during the countdown. I did however find another way over, so that wasn't horrible. But when I got the the teleporters, I could never get past the first part of the conversation. It just kept spawning another one and repeating itself.

    It was a sad ending the music and your failure to save the world, your life crumbles and your sitting there behind the computer screen disapointed for the mistake


    This was my exact feeling at the end :'(

    Great map :D Really love the command work here. Thanks :D

    I got excited for a second. Lol I can't wait to try this one out. I wonder, would it be possible to list all the links on this page for the mods? Or even better, put them together in a download? This would make things a bit easier.

    I know this is really old, but due to breaks I was never able to complete this. It was one of my favorites though. Does anyone know how to get this to work with the current launcher?

    posted a message on Minecraft Building Planner - All New! Out of Beta! (Updated 11/09/15)

    I'm just getting back into Minecraft after a few years. I used to use a program called minecraft structure planner that had stopped working due to Java issues. Is this similar to that? Thx :-D

    The biggest issue I'm finding is that I decided to build a hill around the base to cover the basement, and filling it all with dirt is making my wrist hurt. Even with the creative autoplace... I should have put the hill in before making the tunnels up to the "ground level" but I'm not changing it for now. More pictures to come as soon as I have more done, but I don't think it will be long before I have the outside done.

    Ok, now that I feel dumb for not remembering one of the easier codes to use... Here's what I got so far. Mods, feel free to move this entire thread if need be, not that you need my permission :)

    I started off with the graph paper, then marked out the perimeter of the building to see how it would look in general. The lines leading to the squares at the top was just for distance from the "air field" and showing which side was the front. The white lines are the few rooms so I would have some idea as to what it should look like.

    I then decided, after much debate, to dig down the three layers to bedrock so that I wouldn't have to raise the terrain that much when finished. Of course, TNT was used much in this process :) I wish it was that easy to excavate like this... Heck, I wish the use of TNT like this was legal :D The white lines are for reference on where the tunnels leading to the entrances are located, to help line it up with the graph paper to make sure I didn't screw things up.

    Then it was time to put pen to... er, maybe paper to MC? This is the basement floor minus the roof layer.

    I've since added the basement roof but didn't think that was worth bothering my entire facebook friends list over :) This is one of the rooms. With some exceptions, the rooms are generally 4X5X3 Blocks and the entire building as of yet is made of stone brick. I toyed with using wood just for fun, but for whatever reason, I went a couple weeks in a rainy flat world, decided to live with the rain rather than start a new one. And somehow didn't notice that it storms... a lot... I've already lost a small in air structure to lightning. :)

    There's quite a bit more work yet to do, as I haven't even had a chance to put the top level on paper yet. I think I am going with a roof, a gap, and then a floor for between the levels, and my wife has already promised to randomly turn the rooms into purple and pink wool >.> so I will have to hunt around to find those and fix them, then decorating :)

    Laters,
    -Rick

    Sorry I went kinda quiet there for a while. As soon as I can figure out how to hide pictures I will upload some on here for what I have done so far :)

    Never mind on the structure planner. I've been out of MC for so long I didn't realize it was abandoned :( Kinda sad actually, but I'm not gonna take the time to screw with Java on this machine just to use it... So hand building it is once I get the chance. Too bad there's not an MCEdit360 :D Oh well, half the fun I guess

    I think you are on the right track! From my drafting experience [years ago, ha] you really just need a scale. If you decide that 1' = 1 block in Minecraft go with it. I think the blocks are supposed to be more like 1 meter [~3 ft] but I could be wrong.

    I've done several builds off plans tho they are generally plans *I* came up with. Graph paper is PERFECT for this and if you're really fancy you can get isometric graph paper to do your "3D" views vs just flat prints.

    The hardest part of going from blueprints to building, especially with what you have, is that while you have the floorplan [which is great] you don't have a whole lot of detail on what the rooms actually look like inside and basically "elevation" drawings [unless I missed that in the thread] to know what the sides look like. That said, if you aren't hellbent on making it identical you can do whatever the heck you want. :)


    I found that after fighting nearly to the death with Excel just trying to get the gridlines to display where I wanted over the drawing, was to assume that the length of a door was basically one block, which is the case in MC. So taking the picture and making it transparent and adjust the grid so that one line was on one end of a door and the next was at the other end, then just counted the blocks that filled a room. The lines came out to be 6 pixels spacing per Excel... I think... I added a block for walls and adjust some of the room sizes, and then copied it down to graph paper. I had completely forgotten about Structure Planner so I might take a look at that again and see if I can't build it there first. Cause a mouse is so much easier to move blocks with than a mouse :P

    Wow, honestly I never thought about going back and doing the terrain. Thanks :D

    This is the drawing for the side of the building. I've looked at it a couple of times, but didn't really find it useful

    And I found these really, really old pictures of the building, I've kinda skimmed through them. From what I've seen of DOD buildings, these people are just so boring :)

    Note: I showed my father these pictures as it's where he used to be stationed, and he was concerned about security issues, so here's my disclaimer :) All of these pictures are taken from the Library of Congress website, and are (I believe) publicly available in person as well. Also, the drawing is innacurate since there was a huge remodel a while back. There :P

    Thanks all :)
