I have always wanted a Minecraft world that is both an open-world and an RPG. I have dreamt up a little something an I decided the I would ask the wonderful Minecraft community for some help. I am a relatively good builder and even fare quite well with a logical layout of my worlds/builds, but I have a bit of a problem with the layout of the interiors of my buildings. I made this post to ask for your, yes you reading this, help.
The Basic Story So Far:
I want the player to choose between 3 main races:
- Elf. A nature-oriented race that prefer natural mechanisms and magics.
- Dwarf. A race motivated by riches and solving issues with war axes.
- Humans. Adept at most mechanisms and magics. The blank race so to speak.
There are a few sub races that will basically just be a sort of classification based on the player's style of play.
The village I have already started constructing will be called The Lost Village. My plan is to have all players start here and be guided (gently, but not by holding the player's hand as requested/suggested) to understanding the basics of play and the story of the world that they find themselves in.
I am considering the main plot of the story being a massive war between Humans and the Evil (whatever that might be, open to suggestions) of this world. So as soon as the player has been guided enough to survive on their own I would then give the player the freedom to explore the world and discover the rest of the story somehow (Maybe with custom NPCs. I also would like someone to help with additional cities/towns for the players to "discover" and explore. I am open to suggestions as well).
That is what I have in regards to the story so far. Suggestions are more than welcome.
Screen Shots So Far:
Where Can You Help:
* Interiors of the buildings that have already been built and the new ones as they are constructed.
* Exterior decorations of the pre-built towns and cities. Not too over the top just enough to make it look alive and lived in.
* Building and Layouts of the other towns and cities. I was thinking a main City for each of the main races in a suitable biome/surrounding. with a little hint or two to their locations from the starting village.
* Custom dungeons for the players to explore and conquer. With spawners and traps and even puzzles.
* Bandit camps where the players can either join/help the bandits or conquer them.
* Suggestions of more locations and story is welcome.
I usually start working on the map around 17:00 (UTC+07:00) and I will upload the new version of the map around 21:00-23:00 (UTC+07:00) everyday. If you downloaded the map and want to build with me PM me your e-mail address and I can share the map folder with you on Dropbox to upload your changes. I will of course give credit to anyone that helps out in any way at all.
Any suggestion are welcome. Reply and we can discuss.
Do you have a backstory for your world yet? I'd love some more deatails!, also considering your using custom NPCs and other mods anyway, consider some decoration mods to give your wolrld a bit more flare (Decocraft 2, Mc crayish furniture, Carpenters blocks etc.). Also we get blood magic, and then flower magic? what would flower magic involve? Unless thers some really cool stuff maybe think of something else, as that might put some people of. (some people might think it's to "girly"). And don't make the start to tutorail orientated, give the player a bit of freedom while gently guiding them. Otherwise people will just quit out of beaing treated like a idiot (especially experienced player of the mods, maybe have a skip tutorial bouton?) Anyway!, I can give you some more feedback and ideas if you want them, I think I've given you quite a mouthfull allready, so I'll stop waffling.

Okay so for the detail: of the world this is going to be a fast one.
how i am going to imagine the start is going to be your going to choose between 3 main races maybe 4 this is the way early stages
you are going to start in this villages lost to all the world you people know there is something out there but why venture if you are happy and secure in your village that has food weapons to defend monsters from the tall forest there is mines its a simple life but that is going to be the tutorial stage of the game, there will is going to a huge war between the humans and a evil (that i need help on) that but it is not going to be just kill the evil king and done you will be ably to get on their side and see their point of the view ( so the humans and the evils is the main part)
now there is the dwarfs and the elves
i want it to feel like the dwarfs and the elves will be required for the main quest you dont need them you might get them both on your side.
with both of these races you will get something you cant get elves might learn you root magic ( not building structures and stuff from the ground up someone might give you a quest to go do something and you will get what you need to progress )
but then there is some other side missions and stuff you might be interested you hear about this bandit camp doing dark rituals or you here whispers in the night of blood sucking bats or pixies that plays with some strange flowers in the woods and many others
it is going to run on a plan like if you done something good and get that goodie 2 shoes sword you wont be ably to do the bad version of the quest.
I probably missed many things everybody wants to know
but i am open ears for any ideas and ask for anything you want to know.
- have made a nice redstone tree farm a big change from the last one i make you can see in the picture below for the example (still not done with it thou
i need to make the clock now to let the trees grow every 2 min or so, i try to use a growth detector with detect when wheat is mature and sends a redstone pulls but i will finish it tomorrow, i hope )
- i have started on a custom mine, this mine will be very small compare to future mines ( it runs on a random sheep system, it works )
- fix the tree farm thing you can try it and wait like 1-3 minecraft days (or just bonemeal the wheat in the underground system) i will fix the time tomorrow
- made a little flora
( sorry did not get a lot of time today, came home late )
Why use so many mods? Most things, well all, you are doing as of now either have been or can be done with command blocks. It's just my opinion but I think the map would be, once finished, more played if in vanilla. I was hoping this was in vanilla so I could help but I don't do commands with mods.
Well i can really consider deleting 75% of the mods i want to keep some magic mods in for more content to keep it near to vanilla becuase i never really played with command blocks, if you want to help pm me and we can talk about some interesting things.
