IGN: TheMiner30. Minigame: Peaceful Survival. Description of the map: I have designed the Survival map so that it is a throwback to all of the original Survival maps that I can remember, including some original ideas of my own. The alternative exit, shop and layout of the spawn is all my idea. Throughout the video seen below, the veterans and old-time players will notice some of the hinted throwbacks in the spawn. Video: Credits to: Myself. To be frank, this is my first spawn build, and I'm proud of it, yet I don't think it looks all that well compared to what others have made. However, I have dedicated a total of 5+ days to this mini-project, video and construction wise, and I hope you consider this spawn to replace our smaller, out-of-date current Survival spawn. Thank you. Spoiler: Edit Log #1 Added Community Chests, ender chests and crafting tables to the exit of the spawn. Added a fishing pool with an infinite dispenser fishing rod next to it. It works, I've tested it. Added two infinite stone sword/fishing rod dispensers at the PvP Arena. Added detail to alternative exit. Added more informative guiding signs. Added another FAQ. Added an infinite cookie dispenser in the donator lounge. Added a parkour that loops around the shop. Added a red colored beacon on top of the PvP Arena. Added a credit sign. Hopefully made things a tad more organized. Grounded the ladder helpers in the corners by placing fences instead of another block. Made the ladder helpers look more organized and neat. Revamped the PvP Arena, making it larger and more detailed.
Good job, I quite like it. Hope it gets accepted and the #tbt Add the cookie dispensers and fishing rods and the parkour <3
I think you did a pretty good job of making this spawn. Perhaps though you could try grounding some of the structures and making things a bit more organized (Although I haven't been on J&H as long as you so I can't make judgements on the callback aspect of this build)
The spawn had throwbacks to the other spawns, as said above. The PvP Arena was a throwback to the original spawn, which too had a PvP arena with infinite dispensers that had stone swords.
The only way we know is if the Survival spawn is potentially changed to this one...probably. Either way, I still had some fun making this, so it doesn't matter too much to me :P
Thanks for the criticism, I appreciate it. However, I'm not sure what you mean by "spice it up" a bit more. Most of the spawns on more popular servers I see, and some spawns on this one (I mean, look at the current Survival Spawn. The block that's seen most is cobblestone, and the other blocks are either fences or carpets. Especially Herobrine's Chamber, the entire spawn IS A NETHER BRICK.) I mean, there isn't too much I could detail on.
It's okay to use the same blocks, but for instance, non-tileable blocks (such as chiseled stonebrick) don't look good in a solid wall. Along those lines, walls, ceilings, or floors made of one solid block usually don't look good either. He doesn't mean use more blocks, he means use more patterns.
It's not wrong to use the same blocks, I am just saying that the choice of blocks you chose are not the best looking to be alone. Chiseled blocks are added to the game to be accent blocks, or, detail blocks. When they are alone, it doesn't add the same effect as say stone bricks alone.
MAKE THIS BE ADDED I WANT THE THROWBACK OF THE SURVIVAL TO HAPPEN BEST SPAWN 10/10 Wait I just realised there should be a /pvptoggle in peaceful survival at least for a pvp arena if not the pvp arena would get cut out of the spawn I don't want that to happen.
*UPDATE* The save file is on my old Mac, which is practically impossible to run without crashing at some point during the build and having to do almost everything all over again. I cannot move it onto my new Windows. Because of this, I have decided I will be working on a better spawn with the same idea as this one on my new computer. For now, I'll lock this thread and create a new one as soon as I am finished with the new spawn. Thanks.
