Description: The Clan Corporation Center, or CCC, is a building that houses a large arena for musical performances, sporting events, and what ever else you can think of.  Underneath the arena, there are booths where clans can showcase their clans.  The CCC is open to any and all clans who sign up, no matter how big, small, popular, or well known they are, the only restriction is that clans need to have more than one person in it for your clan to be accepted.  For clans that sign up, you get a suite that has a good view of the arena and all of its activities.  All that is needed is an application and you are on your way.

Performances: You can also participate in an performance, whether by yourself or with your clan or friends.  All that is needed is an application and you are on your way.



Current Clans Signed Up
-RMBC
-ARES
-BHC
-KodX
-GBLD

Performances
-RMBC (Host, transitions, sports)
-Kodex (coding)
-Young Rotations (music)



Progress: So far, I have completed the large section of the arena for seating along with the default design for the clan suites, as is seen in the pictures.  As Kalphiter had suggested, the brick count will be crazy high if I continue with my current set up.  I will most likely halve the height of the three segments that make up the seating section, so that instead of having 880 seats/section, it will only have 440 seats/section, 220 on the half sections by the corners.  This will come to a total of 5280 seats, wow, just realized that's about one and a half miles of seating, one seat is about one and a half feet.

I plan to be finished with the construction of this by the start of this summer, but with finals and AP tests coming up, I'm not so sure.



Picture Time







The lowest level is level C, then B, then M, then finally at the top R, spelling RMBC.










The RMBC in the picture is the clan name of the suite.  This will be replaced by your clan abbreviation (must be one to four letters long).












This is what the suites will look like from the arena.  I'll either directly stack them or shift them slightly to create an amphitheater look.


This is the window where two suites connect.  It's an angled window in real life, but I didn't have an angled upright print plate.


This is what the suites will look like from the hallway, excpet there will be another layer of bricks to form the hallway wall.  The black brick in between the upper and lower suites is a cutaway of the floor.

Thanks and have a nice day.

well built but gonna be huuuuge

And in a quick few seconds, i was able to create the entire stadium with the current seats, along with the pathways up and down to get to the seats and half sections for better fitting, and it looks amazing.

I'll remake it like that then cut the number of seats in half and see what the stadium looks like then.

Exactly

RMBC = Recontructions and Mass Builds Clan.

Bump

And I halved the amount of seats, and I think I like it better.



The new seat section is on the left, the old one on the right.  The new one's suites are all lined up vertically, making it easier for me.

Just realized i put the double decker suite on the wrong spot.

Looks great, love how you always build huge.
Although you will have a huge problem filling those seats...

Yes huge, but I usually aim for realism.

The vast majority of builds in blockland, and lego, are not to scale.  Houses usually have doors with the ceiling directly on top of it, in lego, only one minifigure can fit in the front driving area, while usually two people sit side-by-side and can even fit another person on the center console.

I also use math and comparative measurements when making my builds-had to do this with the Colosseum because i had no definite dimensions for the various features of the Colosseum, so I measured the height of a man in the pictures I used, and used that amount as my base unit. 1 RL man = 1 Blocklander size= ~5 bricks high.

For things that I can measure around the house, like house height, I use my height as a comparison because where I stand in a door is about the same as a Blocklander in a JVS door.

So in my continuation of this build, today (as in right now) I wanted to see what the entire arena area would look like (I also cleaned up the bottom of each floor so that the default brick undertexture can't be seen).  So i start duplicating the large section that I have shown you before, but with the new updates.  I got to duping three full sections, then on the forth, it didn't duplicate all the way.  I was very confused, so thinking that it didnt't build all the way because some bricks were hanging, I clicked enter again, but no luck, still wouldn't duplicate.

That was when I was like "SHIIIT!"

I pondered the reasons why this might be, then it dawned on me.  I typed in /brickcount, and turned out I reached my brick limit (256000), which I could have swarn I changed to 99999999

Brick limit by default is set to 256k

Currently cannot be set higher.




How the forget does it get that high that fast?

I think each section had about 30k, and I had some loose bricks because of testing that was about 140k

i could help with building and eventing

K thanks.

I think the main difficulty I will be having is when I'm done with the arena, and I have to do the understructure for the CCC, consisting of hallways, rooms, and the booth area.  I will also include a food court just for the heck of it.

I am making a pole to see which section size people would prefer.

Now keep in mind, option B requires me to make a new clan suite design.

How are you going to make the corners of the arena?
