This is going to be another large build, around 400 x 250 nodes.

At the moment I'm still just working out the floor plan, it's nearing completion and I thought some others might also like to have a play with it.

Cheers,

Andrew.

This should be of special interest to educators as well as builders. How to recreate historical sites: First off, you need a map of some kind. If it’s an individual building then you really want a copy of the building’s floor plan. If it’s a larger site such as I’ve chosen as an example to use here ...

Just a few more pictures needed for the above post.

Sounds disgusting to many people, but those would be the people that throw so much food away then complain about the high prices of living. I like my eggs fried in Lamb Fat. I like my Potato Chips fried in Pork Fat. I like to use Beef Fat for cooking Risotto. So many of you pour so much good food do...

It's a Maze, you start in the centre and have to escape. You can harvest food to sustain you on your journey, but that is all. As a special treat - the solution to the maze will reveal itself at night. But the days are long and the nights are very short. This map also has a schematic file for the ma...

Just playing with shapes and ideas for a nice spawn, I thought this one was interesting.

It has a few nice features including flowing water for a roof, not possible without Bucket Game.

Just playing around with different designs for spawn points and I liked this one enough to share it. http://www.mediafire.com/file/uguzcg66ttbt636/10_Spawn The map includes the schematic files for the building if you like it: 71 x 71 11 high, 8 deep. Requires Bucket Game of course. :) Cheers, Andrew.

The safest little house on the prairie.

Has it's own little garden and a modest range of Low Voltage machines.

The door in the outer wall faces East.

This was made while actually playing instead of in creative mode. Thorough testing as a normal player is the only way you find many problems, and this build helped me find a few. This building is more practical than pretty, it is also a good demonstration for beginners on how to set up machines. I u...

This is a treatment for dry scaly skin type problems and for dermatitis caused by exposure to chemicals. 100 ml Glycerine 100 ml Lemon Juice Shake well. Apply sparingly twice a day, a little bit goes a surprisingly long way. If you work with chemicals all day put it in a bottle with a plastic lid an...

Browning the Meat. If you do this properly for a good stew then you have no need to use bought stock. Browning the meat properly creates the stock. But of course, there’s a trick to that. The biggest problem is that when you drop meat into a pan it sucks all the heat out of the pan. There’s two obvi...

CleanSlate400 Just what it’s name says, a clean empty slate of grass for builders to design on. 400 x 400 nodes with the centre at 0, 8, 0 to help make all the working out easier. You start off at centre with all privileges already enabled. The days are very long and the nights are very short. All t...

I make my own pizza dough to a traditional recipe taught to me by an old Italian man when I was a kid. It’s impossible to forget and impossible to get wrong because there are only 2 ingredients – flour and water. I add a little bit of curry powder and paprika to mine to spice it up a bit. After you’...

It's now complete. The Commander's Residence is unfurnished, feel free to put your own ideas in there. The rest is furnished properly.

391 x 391
Position 1 is ground level.

3.7 million nodes.

Cheers,

Andrew.

All the buildings are now complete.

I just have to finish furnishing two of them and do a bit more landscaping.

Cheers,

Andrew.

The Commander's Residence is now done, although it still needs furniture. It takes quite a while to do those rooves. Next comes a temple, probably to Mars, a fountain in the middle, and more furniture throughout. Plus I think I need to make the gullies for the defences a bit deeper. Overal it's comi...

This model fort is not based on any specific Roman fort but is instead what the Romans would have built if given a perfectly flat open space to build on. They were quite clever at adapting their designs to suit the lay of the land, what I'm building here is the ideal that they would have striven for...

Progressing nicely so far.

Soldier's barracks, ablutions block and stables are complete.

I'm quite pleased with the way this is working out. It's not as difficult as I first thought.

All the defences are in place now and all the landscaping is done.

Cheers,

Andrew.

One of the gate houses taking shape.

You can see in the picture that I'm doing the landscaping as well. Although this isn't a model of any fort in particular it should end up being a reasonable depiction of Roman military infrastructure and building style.

Currently a work in progress. I'll post updates and eventually the schematic files here. [Now complete] This is the floor plan mostly worked out, I just need to add a couple more buildings. This is the hardest part of any large build, working out a decent floor plan, once you get that right the rest...

Just a fun map to play.

Spawn point is on the sandbar in the middle of the picture and you have almost every biome available within a short distance.

The map has creatures and monsters enabled, and you start with a free house.

Cheers,

Andrew.

Unfurnished. Feel free to decorate it in your own style.

Roast Chicken. But not quite what you’re thinking, roast chicken legs, or Drumsticks. Possibly one of the cheapest meats you can buy in the western world. 6 Chicken Legs, frozen. When they’re half thawed out liberally sprinkle them with Chicken Salt – see recipe in this section. Put them in a cerami...

Here's a couple of recipes in html format in a zip file.

I could never figure out how to get Office to behave the way I want, writing simple html is so much quicker than mucking around with Office and it gives me so much more control over the layout.

Cheers,

Cauliflower Balls? I don’t know what you’d call these, but it’s a great snack that’s just as good cold the next day as it is when it’s fresh. But before I can tell you that I have to explain Beer Batter. Beer Batter is a very light and crispy batter but it should only be used on things that are cook...

Easy single man’s cooking. Cheat’s Chicken Cacciatore 3 chicken legs (drumsticks) 1 tin of tomatoes 1 large onion 1 tin of mixed vegetables 1 chicken stock cube Mixed herbs and black pepper *optional – handful of noodles This is so easy it’s not funny. Chuck the chicken legs in a saucepan with the t...
