So I finally got the chance to get onto the server (in-game wise...) for a decent amount of time and see all the new improvements that everyone's been working on. Awesome job! However, we still have plenty to do until we release Beta 1. So this post here is to help everyone figure out what we need to get done, and ideas on how to do so!
Living Districts
We have housing being primarily taken care of by Andy (MrKadmon), however we also need roads and a bit of greenery and assorted decorations. However I am unsure of who is good with roads (needs to be relatively good uptake), and as far as I know Luka is our only "Main" greenery guy. So therefore, we need someone to work with our roads through the living districts, and I would like to designate the greenery and assorted decorations on the outside to Luka (as soon as the roads are finished). Finally, we have internal design that needs to be worked on (severely). I designate that to jasminnancy. Housing ... MrKadmon Roads ... ?superboer53? Natural Decorations ... johnlikeschips Internal Decorations ... jasminnancy
Outside Main Gates
Outside the main gates of the city, we have a road, and are building a forest around it - a BIG forest. We will probably have a few small areas such as hunting lodges, tiny villages, and the like, though feel free to add whatever you wish, wherever you wish. This will be a really cool feature and make the city blend into the world that much better, making the world pop.
The Traveler's District
The traveler's district is to be filled with hotels and small attractions, along with a few small shops. Keep it simple and peaceful though - this is the place people from out of town will be visiting!
Market District
We still need plenty more content to make this area bustling with life and crowded - lots of color and interest for those adventuring throughout our world. We need to designate here as well.
Obviously I don't have all the designations done, but we need to be thinking of what to do here. Who wants to take over what? What else do we need to add to the list? What is most important? All I can say is, we need to get this part DONE by the end of September at the latest - preferably sooner! Then we get to go for all the fun of seeing what people think about our project
The city has certainly started to expand now, a lot of new faces and builds keep popping up and its great
If I remember correctly there was need of people stepping up as "Heads of.:" I would definitely like to take charge of the Living Districts as I have gotten a pretty clear picture of what (I think) it should look like. If no one objects I would love to take charge of this It will be massive and the walls will have to be moved quite a bit.. But it will be nice, I have no doubt about that. I`m also happy to say that Kykid8 has started doing some interiors now and the Cathedral is slowly being surrounded by builds.
As for the timeline I definitely think we will have a more than decent product by september, its gonna be awesome
I`m having a busy week ahead but will be on every day for at least a few hours. See you all around the server
Very nice build. Looks like a lovely little place with an atmosphere.
If I have to point out something it would be the windmill. Surrounding it with walls makes it look a bit, ineffective and out of place. You could build some farms around your walls?

Hi. To post pictures on the forums you`ll need to use an image host, imgur, photobucket or something. Upload your pictures there and link to it here.
Thanks for letting us know... Strange It works for me and O.o
Hey venom! If you would like us to build for you, you can either contact me via skype (christopher_harlan), send me a PM, or just post up here on our forum page!
Hey MrSinister! The builds look great!... Though sorry that you were building on the wrong one Maybe you can figure out what to do better this time around?
Happy Building Everyone!
Yeah.. If I`d only known..
I`ve learned that I should get skype tho
A lot of work gone, but no big deal really. I`ll just do it better
I was so happy when it got back just a few days ago, now this I did however squeeze in quite a few hours when the server was up
Because of the 1.7.9 requirements I lost my shaders but here is the district so far, its grown quite a bit.

I will probably expand towards the market-district next with bigger and more city-like structures. I also will flesh out the existing area with roads and markets and such.Unless there are any other ideas. I also added a build to the Travellers District with more on the way.
I really hope the server is back up soon, need to build..
Turning off clouds turned out to be really hard, the city is in Beta. The option of turning clouds on/off was introduced in the 1.9pre5, it seems.. Well enough of the history-lessons I eventually got it.
As vanilla as they come. I tried to keep true to your requirements and left a lot of sea and air for you to play with.
or perhaps this one? If you are tired of generic "Medieval/Fantasy" builds?
Nice work Could you do one for me then? I really need all the help I can get, my skills at photoshop are abysmal..
I really need a banner or some nice pictures of my largest and soon to be completed project, this being the "downtown" area.
Excited to see if you can do some magic on this If you prefer other angles, motifs etc. give the word. I`m addicted to the F2 key and have like thousands of screens collected over the last years. Nice terrainshots too.
Thanks for keeping us updated! Good luck with your finals!
I'm excited to know that you're going all out on this - that means it's going to be just that much better! And for your idea for a meeting, I think it's a great idea! We'll have to start planning and come up with a date (preferrably in the middle of June), and then we can figure out the plans we need to do and ideas to spice things up!
So I guess when it comes to meetings, what times and days are best for people? Should we hold this over skype or a different chat? Do we want this to be video/text/voice? If anyone has any suggestions, let us know!
Another quick announcement I'd like to give is the opening of our newest section: TBC Bounties. These bounties will be updated as often as possible with the latest jobs from those who need our help! This will help us keep track of who is working on what project (outside projects of course), as well as what the exact project is, deadlines, and any other information that is needed. Jobs that are unclaimed will be taken down after two weeks. This gives us an easier way to help those from other clans and servers. Also, if you would like to help give some feedback about the bounties, let me know!
Happy Building everyone!
Excellent, mid-june sounds good. Due to work and life in general I`m only able to get online in the evenings. (GMT+1) it means I usually are online from 20.00 to 02:00 most days. However every other week my kid is with his mother, I then play like 17:00 - 02:00 almost every day :). This being said, I can try and be flexible. I don`t use skype but are able to chat
Say the word and I`ll make it one way or the other.
Wow - this looks absolutely gorgeous Feel free to expand wherever! What's a creative server without freedom?
Double thanks I am currently going all-in on this project and as such the district should grow significantly the coming weeks, it will be quite large methinks. A lot of plans to do, and a lot of sweet terrrain to incorporate. I`ll try and mark up a suggestion for a new wall later on. (I rarely build walls as I always seem too expand past them )
Also, I hope there will be some sort of clan-meeting in the future, I`m getting some ideas for the city in general there may be some merit to. I honestly think we should, and could, make something epic. (yes, I used the E-word)
Its good to see new people on, I will be spending quite a few nights on the server the next month(s), company is always good
Also, any suggestions or requests are welcome, I will keep at the residential district for now keeping the same theme and style, but try to connect them more towards other parts of town when they start to merge. If anyone feels they can contribute with some medieval houses, feel free to join me
Absolutely It's gonna be fun to watch the builds... Downside is I can't partake for a while... My internet connectivity is limited here. Still, good to see all the progress!
ALSO, MCForums member, Buildathing3 contacted me asking to see if anyone would be willing to visit his server for a little bit and build a few wooden transport ships. The server is survival, though he says that he could provide all the materials needed. If anyone is up for this small project, please feel free to say so and then contact Buildathing3.
Happy Building
The residential district is coming along now, upgraded to conquest and got this
Could I move the planned city wall a bit? The place is getting a bit constricted
Thanks, the feeling is mutual Really looking forward to resume building, I have a lot of plans for the residential district now and the next weeks should be very productive. Its also refreshing to see a lot of new blood signing up, the company is good
I really have to get that texturepack by the way, I`m hardcore vanilla (with optifine and shaders) but will have to adjust my builds accordingly. Anyone got a quick link for the conquest?

Som Norsk burde jeg av patriotiske årsaker slenge meg med men jeg er dessverre en travel mann.
Håper dere skaper noe episk
Det er forøvrig noe veldig, veldig kjent og nærmest familiært med den OP`en, som om jeg har lest det før.. Merkelig..

Have this as a token of my gratitude

I think it looks really good, looking forward to seeing it grow And it certainly fits the medieval map.
