Have you had any bans or strikes?

Yes http://gyazo.com/31fdaf7d2c890f89f339b5859b5c1c16 

 

Why do you want to be a builder for the ET?

Because, I’ve been building for quite a while now, and every time I get a build project that I want to do, I never burn out from it, I always give it my best, and I’m very motivated, I guess you could just say that I love building, and this is the place to go. Another reason is that there aren't a lot of competent dwarven-architectural  builders on the server, and I feel every race has their staff members while the dwarves lack in many ways. I would definitely say I’m one of the best among them and I want to do my part for this race on the server by building event areas for them to use in the future.

 

What are some of your most treasured builds?

I don’t have screenshots, but, if anyone was on the Legends of Aelryth development team, they can vouch for the things I’ve done, anyone of them at all. My most treasured builds were the dungeons I made. I made one arachne dungeon, a kraken dungeon, a slime dungeon, and several other smaller event areas. Those were the ones I was most proud of.

 

I actually just finished this dwarvish entrance. (My second design so far, I show my less proud version later.) :http://i.imgur.com/LEb9ATt.png Edit: I'd like it known this was 100% improvised :)

 

What MMORPG/video games do you play?

“Do I play”, at the moment nothing, but I’m waiting on EverQuest Next! But I was a massive MMORPG fan in the past. I’ve played DDO, LotRO, SWtOR, Guild Wars II, ESO, and also played a few campaigns on roll20. I’m sure I’ve played others that I can’t remember. (you ask for MMORPG, but I’ve played a lot more single player RPG games as well, and that’s where it’s at.)

 

Please provide screenshots of any medieval builds strictly you have built and a description of each:

Not quite medieval but given the resources I had in survival I made this Heat-Intake Rune Forge (Thingamabober):http://imgur.com/a/Ole0P

This is a little mine area: http://imgur.com/a/xKORH

 

Here’s a large dwarven notice board: http://imgur.com/a/9JVMg

 

A little dwarvish hallway design (Looking back, the floor is horrid, easy fix): http://imgur.com/a/9YhQY

 

This was my first attempt at a gate and the gate I wasn't as proud of: http://imgur.com/a/AREC6

 

Please provide an example of a decent sized ruin build:

With the new dwarven uptake on the Kal’Agnar build, I’m one of the main builders and this is what, essentially me and 3 others have accomplished thus far: http://imgur.com/a/n2sAl.

 

Please provide an example of terraforming:

This is an example I've done by hand: http://imgur.com/a/m1MzV

 

Please provide an example of a organic build:

This is just… something organic http://imgur.com/a/2rqNl

 

Please provide an example of a High fantasy build:

Here’s a little hellfire nether recreation: http://imgur.com/a/FaWkC

 

Are you an independent builder, and are you capable of handling all aspects of a build?

I don’t have a huge background in voxel, so usually what I did was got my voxel handy friends to do what I asked them, and we’d work together, I’d make the actual build while I’d ask them to “extend out this way, make a big cavern here, mask using these blocks and percentages, exc.” Besides that, if it’s a normal build, I could do it myself. It’d depend on the scale, but usually I’d ask for voxel help, though it isn’t necessary, I could very well do it by hand or learn how to voxel much better.

 

Do you know much about redstone?

I know quite a lot, I know how to make circuits, clocks, all the basic functions, and in a way, specialized in redstone traps a while back. But my reply would be I can handle very simple things for my normal builds, but I wouldn't trust myself to create massive redstone structures, or even somewhat complex ones. I’d probably resort to youtube or the internet for a solution. I’d rather seek out another to help me though if all else fails within a reasonable amount of time.

 

How long does it take for you to complete a build?

See, it’d depend on what I was doing. If it was a small event area that’s miscellaneous and can be reused, maybe 2-ish hours? If I wanted to make a whole dungeon, it’d take somewhere around 30 hours. But believe it or not, I have no life and can spend  a lot of time building, and since it’s somewhat of a passion I build for a good 8 hours straight.

 

Tell us how you plan on constructing a large build, a medium build, and a small build.

 

Large Build:

I always make a list on a google.doc of all the parts, areas, what they’ll look like, and the size of each part. What I’ll then do is if there’s an environment, I’ll start by hand terraforming areas to make them look very good, then start by laying out wool foundations to see if things fit, how big I should actually make them, and will then start on roads. After everything environmental and simplistic is done, I’ll make buildings smallest to biggest, and when I’m done, I’ll do the interiors, from the smallest building to biggest. when every significant aspect of the build is done, I run around the area several times adding what little details I can.

 

Medium Build:

It really depends on the build. It it’s a cave, I’ll have to decide what the build will have, and how the layout of the area will be, then act that out by carving a way. I’ll then go around changing the surface of the entire cave system with the appropriate materials that I want for the dungeon. After that I’ll start from the entrance, adding little by little, starting with the most important details. I personally, won’t do minuscule details until after all the main areas are done, so I have the basic form done. Then I can go around and add very detailed blocks and rp signs.

 

Small Build:

For smaller builds, I’d usually just start by making the attraction point. like if it’s a well, I’ll start by making the well. after the well, I’ll go down into the well and make an interesting little area, which might lead out somewhere hidden so players don’t have to die down there. After that, I’ll have to decorate everything from that exit to the well, with trees, brush, grass, maybe an abandoned camp here or there, some scorch marks hinting something happened, or making it clear something mysterious happened that the player can decide as to what it was that happened.

 

Additional details:

I “Know” voxel, and how to do it, I can do, very simplistic/decent work. Yes, I can worldedit, but I have no idea how to craftbook, which doesn't stop me from wanting to learn how to, that with the fact that I really want to learn it shouldn't make it too much a problem.

 

Tell me a trick about building:

Wanna know how to make toilet paper? Put an item frame on a block. Right click on the block with the item frame (but not on the item frame) with a wooden button, then right click the item frame with a quartz pillar (but make the toilet paper horizontal, not vertical). Bam, toilet paper!

There’s also the decorative head blocks that can be pig heads, melons, books, ale, apples for builds. Didn't use these much, don’t remember command :/

 

Not to mention unobtainable MC blocks like 6 sided piston [33:7] which is used for crates, [34:1] which are great tables, the half bed block for comfy chairs, 6 sided bark logs exc. which are easily spawned in via /I command or WE.

 

Tell me what you want from the ET:

 I’m not going to lie, or make something up. I want more dwarf events, or for the dwarf events already planned to happen to happen faster by helping build event areas, or help make other event areas

Please. He is an insanely good builder and a chill guy ooc. His builds on LOA were absolutely mind blowingly good.

[James 425]

I mean he was a great builder in the past and did large work for the ET on a lot of the builds. I completely support this if he wishes to return to the team wholeheartedly.

I'd like to see you build something that could be used by other races :)

I don't think I need people to vouch for me but I appreciate the assistance :)

Moved to the Archive. It shall be sorted into the appropriate category shortly.
