hello everyone and welcome to the virtual tour! i'd just like to show everyone what we've been doing on the server and what's to come

let's start off with the developing town of Serygrad/Chapograd/Whatever the fuck they are going to call it! this community is being built literally from the ground up by none other than master architect and engineer @Seryph@lemmygrad.ml @LittleSery

say hi Sery!

it currently has half a train station, a full library, a functioning depot and two gay parrots! i cannot wait to see how this place turns out

this is the first of our trains. this one connects Serygrad to the town of Shadehaven. let's take a ride. ALL ABOARD!

enjoy the first-class amenities in our one-car train and relax as the centrally planned rail system efficiently takes us to our destination

along the line, we have a cute little picture to mark the city limits. hi Lenin!

welcome to Shadehaven Station!

enjoy the gothic ambience of our first-ever train station

right outside the station, the cherry trees accentuate the gothic vibes of the city. it's truly beautiful at night if you get past the gangs of roving phantoms trying to murder you

this is Shadehaven! it was originally built from the bones of a village into the sprawling behemoth it currently is (#5 if you want to be exact),

entirely because of the efforts of the dedicated community. everyone on here is a legend and i appreciate them immensely

the users on this server are so talented, bringing technological advancements that blend the virtual and real world. hi @ashinadash@hexbear.net!

it's seriously so impressive. is there any limit to what we can't d- oh. fuck off.

anyway. this is our town square! i love coming back to town because it's such a relaxing atmosphere

can you believe this started out with like 3 villagers and a witch?

the natural build gave us a leg up and the infrastructure they left us has been built upon and improved immensely

i love this place.

we even have a castle! obviously the crown jewel of our town, it is a majestic beacon of progress

oh. @PurrLure@hexbear.net please explain this.

inside you can hear the groans of a villager and some kind of animal. this fucking sucks.

why are you here, you dweeb? just leave. fuck off

maybe it's not all bad. you know what they say, behind every closed door is

a stinky mule.

and that concludes our tour! time to rest outside my cabin. i'm just gonna sit here and ignore the fact that all of that bullshit is literally down the street from me

They built communism in Minecraft waow-based

[–] gaystyleJoker@hexbear.net 19 points 2 months ago (1 children)

there's a depot where you can just ask for stuff and pick it up

[–] Sulvor@hexbear.net 17 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Please don’t document my hovel scared

[–] gaystyleJoker@hexbear.net 12 points 2 months ago

that will also be covered in part 2

[–] gay_king_prince_charles@hexbear.net 13 points 2 months ago (1 children)

centrally planned rail system

Greatly overestimating the level of thought I put into the rail placement and the loop-de-loop that needed to be fixed

[–] gaystyleJoker@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

i was writing a travel brochure, don't mess it up before we sell these timeshares!!

[–] EstraDoll@hexbear.net 11 points 2 months ago (1 children)

tfw the city of Highfemme is of too little note to make the list

oooaaaaaaauhhh

[–] gaystyleJoker@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago (2 children)

that's part 2! i don't even know where you set it up

[–] EstraDoll@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Straight east and slightly south of Chapograd/Shadehaven in the middle of a massive ass mountain range in the jungle. I got some pics myself but a couple hours of work to touch the place up before some shots would be nice. Guess I got work to do. I can send coordinates but it's kind of hard to miss

[–] gay_king_prince_charles@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago) (1 children)

Mt. Luxembourg?

If so, take the minecart through the nether or the High Efficiency Locomotive Line to get to the feet of the mountain.

[–] EstraDoll@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I know how to get there, I live at the top of it

I'm saying this for other people, not you.

[–] gaystyleJoker@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago (1 children)

i'll check for it next time i'm on!

[–] EstraDoll@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

X: 1660 Z: 130, facing west on top of a bigass mountain range that stretches about kilometer. Very hard to miss

[–] buckykat@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago

It's at the other end of the nether rail from chapograd

[–] magi@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago (2 children)

wow you weren't kidding about the many pictures, awesome c:

[–] gaystyleJoker@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

thank you! i did nothing but document it

[–] magi@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

I like the gothic vibes, very comfy screm-cool

[–] PurrLure@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Well @gaystyleJoker@hexbear.net, many of the Shadehaven quality of life improvements were done by myself, including the entire train station! We're putting it up to community vote on what to do with that decrepit castle but c'moooooon let me do one of the goofy builds I was known for on the last server and do a Medieval Times themed restaurant, complete with indoor stage, lighting, kitchen and real jousting (maybe probably no promises).

All are welcome in our little renovated historical town, and I promise it's worth the hassle of getting on the server in the first place. Oh! And get some shaders. You'll thank me later.

[–] PurrLure@hexbear.net 10 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

The difference shaders make:

And we're only about a week or so into this server, btw. There's still plenty of room for all the towns to grow, so it's certainly not too late to get whitelisted and join!

[–] gaystyleJoker@hexbear.net 8 points 2 months ago

please make something terrible, the city is too nice

[–] Seryph@lemmygrad.ml 9 points 2 months ago

This is pro-shadehaven propaganda. Do not believe their autogen modded village building lies.

~~jk I love what you've all done with the place it's utterly gorgeous~~

[–] moondog@hexbear.net 2 points 2 months ago

Soon friend, lemme finish the castle first.

[–] daniyeg@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

mfw im still waiting to get access to the server oooaaaaaaauhhh

[–] 12022081631@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

you must write (and successfully defend) a dissertation on intersection of voxels and community before gaining entry. Good Luck

[–] wtypstanaccount04@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Trains!!!!

Minecraft is a very cool game, happy for you all on there. Consider putting the train on a fixed schedule, say once every 2-3 minutes, just for me!

[–] PurrLure@hexbear.net 3 points 2 months ago

We gotta build more train stations for that to happen, but that’s the plan eventually!

[–] Inui@hexbear.net 6 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Isn't the server only like 2 weeks old? This is a lot and its really cool to see in such a short time.

[–] HexcraftDirtFarmer@hexbear.net 4 points 2 months ago

Wonderful stuff!

[–] ExotiqueMatter@lemmygrad.ml 3 points 2 months ago

This is so cool. I need to be more active on the server, I haven't even finished my shitty house yet.

[–] sharkfucker420@lemmy.ml 2 points 2 months ago (1 children)

Any chance of adding a choice mod? Who would I talk to about this. I cannot live without my beloved ars nouveau

[–] gaystyleJoker@hexbear.net 1 points 2 months ago

that is probably a question for the main hexcraft thread but i think they're pretty set on which mods they're using
