Hello, some of you may know me from my YouTube channel with "Lenny the Fastest Lion," etc. and in recent movies I've filmed most of my scenes in a map called Machungwaville (which is downloadable - there's a YouTube videos with links to that). However, I'm starting to outgrow the place - the original goal for that map was make buildings out of basic blocks where the characters could interact with each other and their environment (and I could repeatedly blow Shairi's house up but that's another story). Anyhow, I'm currently working on Machungwaville 2 - or rather, Orangeville (Machungwa is Swahili for Orange) - currently I've only built two houses and a school. It's not public yet as there's still a long way to go and I have an idea of what I want the completed product to look like but figured I'd share with the forums so that you guys can provide input as I go along. Without further ado, here's what you're here for, the images:
This looks very tacky right now, I know. If someone can explain easily how to write on the "sign" object that FH provides I'd appreciate it!
Overhead view. The goal is to not end up with a lot of foliage (trees, etc.) but I'd rather litter the empty map with them now and take them away rather than just add them as I go along.
VERY pleased with how the school has came out. To the right is a bookcase and then you see six desks facing the blackboard.
Another example of how this is a step up above my old map, Machungwaville - in the old map the beds were just a mattress on the floor with a pillow on it - now I'm starting to get a little bit more creative with the woodwork around the mattress.
Again, please criticize! I don't want to get too fancy using custom-made mods, etc. - I prefer to like to keep it basic so that it loads quickly and I'm not using anyone else's creations. However, if you do have any criticisms now is the time for me to hear them before I get too far into this project.
