    Re: My ideas for new Towns Portal rooms (Pics included!)

    Updated!:

    Ok this is pretty close to what i had envisioned when I first started this project:

    [​IMG]
    [​IMG]


    Some notes about this last design:

    • - Built around the exact dimensions of the new spawn tower
    • - Each room takes up 2 floors of the new spawn tower
    • - To do all of the colors would use 16 floors of the new spawn tower

    • 66 portals per color section
    • 2 color sections per room
    • =132 portals per room

    • 16 colors of wool in minecraft
    • x66 portals per color section
    • = 1056 total portals!


    My vision is to have a main town portal room. You would have a main room with a seperate portal for each color of wool, which would then take you into one of these big rooms (via the portals I've put on the floor of the room.

    Updated the first post with a link to the world save if anyone wants to check out the final design in person.

    This is all the work i'm going to put into this for now, but I would love to build this on ECC. Thank you all for the comments and critique. I'm glad so many people like it.

    It's a shame this never made it of the drawing board. I really like this portal room and sounded like many other people did too. I want to bring this back to the top and have more descussions about it :)

    I know this is necro. If you must warn me do so. But I personally love this idea and feel others need to see it. Andrew if this is possible please use this. The one right now is really confusing and I don't like how long it takes to get toy the lower level portals because the lifts were removed. Thanks

    lol Im sure it would still be on the main floor of this. This one just makes it so that everyone has a fair advantage. There's really no point in getting a portal anymore with the current design.

    It would be a nice build, But to have andrew/wewin completely re create the portals leading to every town would require some time, not mentioning the temporary downtime to link all the portal etc. on the test server and transfer. It's really nice and well made, Just not sure if it would be open for discussion because of reasons listed above.

    That all makes perfect sense but I personally hate the portal rooms at the moment, I find them hard to get to some of the lower portals and I think that this is a great way to fix that problem.

    I totally agree, It's not the best but I'm looking at it through andrew/wewin's eyes

    Right, right I could see where this could give Andrew a little migraine but that's ok in the end I think it's a more attractive place all together.

    Love this idea. I really don't like the current portal room design. They are confusing and it takes forever to find the one you are looking for.
