Working on a Deathstar now, just finished the shell, now detailing it, flooring the inside, trying to figure out how to make the laser (any suggestions would be appreciated.)

I like an escalator because an escalator can never break, it can only become stairs. There would never be an escalator temporarily out of order sign, only an escalator temporarily stairs. Sorry for the convenience.

Story of my life. I started making a deathstar on my server, and once we hit laser stage, all production stopped because we couldn't figure out how to do it best. Best I could come up with is to build another, smaller sphere near where you want the laser to be, and have part of it indent into the deathstar to form the laser.
quick question were did you download that texture pack? i have been looking for it cant find
it?
it's just smp's realistic 2. You can find it in the mod forum.

My god that is awesome, CaptainTripps. Can you upload that map so I can get a better look at the Star Destroyer?
How exactly do I do that?
I guess I'd have to get it from the guy running the server first, then it's just a file anyone with MC can use?
I figured I'd continue this in your new thread. Anyway, yes, you'd need to get it from the person running the server.
The save file is actually a folder that you can just compress with winzip/winrar/7zip or any other similar software and upload to file hosting site like megaupload or mediafire.
Turn the trench on its side (at a kind of oblique angle) such that the laser crater is pointing at the ground (like you're trying to destroy the planet, obv). Then you can drop a stream of lava from an opening. It wouldn't be green like it properly should, but it would be bright and glowy! Maybe change the color palette on the lava texture to make it green too...
On-topic - How did you make your sphere so... spherical? Last time I tried building a sphere I did it by stacking circles, but that only makes it circular in 2 dimensions. Yours is approximately circular on just about every diameter.

Used this as a guide, change all dimensions to 1x1x1, give the radius (REMEMBER - 2xRadius = Diameter, meaning your sphere will be twice as many blocks as wide as this number), and wala.
a 3d Voxel sphere. Follow the pattern and build it line by line, by line,.....by line........
I love looking at the wall, on some of the pics you can see the circles sort of crashing into one another like sound waves or on a lake.
Also, my attempt at a laser, not sure if I like it.

Feel free to look at the very few posts I got on my request to see if any of it helps you, haha.
