Author Topic: first build  (Read 2823 times)

hi i just bought the game today and thought i'd play around with it a little bit just to see what i could build

well this isn't really my first build my first build was on a server but the admin deleted it because it was bad

i took most of the designs off other builds and stuff
i also discovered that if you took collision off a brick you could walk right through it so i used that to make a door i couldn't really understand any of the event stuff

i only made 1 window because it was pretty hard to make because it went through 2 walls

you can rate i guess but please dont be too harsh im new

Thats quite good for a first build.
Well done!

it's a start.
well done! i love it

Looks good for a first build.
I have some suggestions however:
  • For the window you should use two 1x4 Bricks, and a 1x4 plate. This would make the window look nicer, and be easier to see out of. If the wall is two bricks thick this could also create an indent, which can look good, and be used for a windowsill, on the inside or outside
  • Perhaps try and put some furniture in, or add stuff to the outside, which seems to be a bit empty.

Also, a simple way to make a door with events is to put in this:
Code: [Select]
onActivate | self | disappear[4]In which the |'s separate boxes, and the box after disappear is a time in seconds
If you need/want it, I can PM you a screenshot of how it should look

Anyway, good job.

thanks for the help guys!


better than what i could do.

This is actually pretty good.
I love how you don't use loving 1xSomethingf plates to make the roof


Holy tit mice!
That is good!

My first build was made from base plates and window spam back in V8 :/
Good job sir, I expect great things from you.

Thanks for the support guys! I'm inspired to make more.


edit:

are there any good brick backs i should get

I highly recommend One Random Brick Pack from RTB.

Get the JVS Door system, so you can have doors that open and close and makes sounds and stuff.
