World of Alveron

[Jaken]

Hi there.

So, after a long break from VS I started a fresh new world, and I decided to share a progress with You. I will try to make buildings as historically accurate as I can. Hope You will enjoy a journey with me.

Spoiler

For world settings I play on 30 day month, and a 10 day handicap, just to find a cool place to settle. Also stone collapse is active. Rest of settings are on default.

It took me like 3 days to find a great spot for me. A lot of flat terrain, nearby forest, some ponds to make basic farm. Just perfect to settle.

First nights looked mostly like this:

After a few days I build some starter A-framed house and a basic farm. 

Spoiler

I'm actually pretty happy with this house. Simple design with easy accessible materials. It's not winter-proof, but I still have a lot of time

Then it's time to prepare some workshop area to advance to a copper age.

Spoiler

It is just temporary build but it works, and feels much better than just a hole in a ground. Now I just need to find a good amount of copper and create more advanced tools. After that I can build a proper buildings and get rid of these ones

Let me know if I should add more photos as an edit to this post or add a new coment.

Later

By all means, a new comment so it bumps to the top.

So the farm is a filled in pond? Nice.

Best way to get farming going early and quickly.

Hello fellow vintarians. Here is some update.

Copper age

I finally found enough copper to make some basic metal tools and already started to build a first farmhouse. I can already see, that it takes a lot more copper than I expected. Probably I will try to make bronze or even iron before next build, but first I want to finish that one.

Anyway, see the house below. It is still work in progress, but it already looks pretty nice. Let me know what You think.

Spoiler

Still need some windows, but for now it has to wait.

I hid a water canals under half chiseled dirt blocks to make it less ugly

Here will be a small storage room. I must say I really like a stair design.

A kitchen will be most detailed one, but it needs time.

Here is a little cellar to store some basic food.

And a future bedroom upstairs.

Nice beam utilisation. The oven, table and stairs looks very nice.

Wait... you can build a thatch roof over pit kilns without it catching on fire?!

I think fire will only spread two blocks away.  Looks like the roof is three.  I've seen some crazy things happen though.

Love it.

I really like your table and stairs designs, might steal that!
