so i recently decided to start a new world, (something iv been putting off for a bit now) but its been extremily
difficult for me to let go of my old world of over 1 and a half years. but alas i couldnt help but feel cheaty due to all
the early game changes. and with things like wheat and poptatoes now only being aquired through far off villages and gold
being required for things like gear boxes iv been realizing more and more that my world would be totaly diffrent if i had
started it the way BTW plays now.

so i figured to help me let go of my beloved world id give it one final showcase here on the build thread. i had posted a
few pics befor many months ago in another thread, but things have changed a lot since then. well, goodbye old friend!
here we go...

Warning, many large pics

First an overview of my base.
Spoiler

the view from my balcony.
Image
Image
now for some close ups. Part1
Spoiler
Show
to the right is my auto saw mill, and the stone structure to the left was (i no longer use it) my manual pottery factory
(befor i learned to automate) on the first floor, and kiln with acompaning cruicibles on the second floor.
Image

What base isnt comlpete without a nice little place to store your beloved canine companions! complete with companion
cubeing rejuvination services, and nice dung side yard for a lucky few to sit eternaly as you continusly ignor them.
Image

Combination auto cow & pig farm, with basment green house for animal munchies.
Image
closeups part 2
Spoiler
Show
White stone, auto chiken farm with egg producing and hatching capabilities.
Image

Auto soul bottling plant with included millstone facilities. the windmill is actually no longer in use and remains just
for looks. the building is now powered via an under ground water wheel. Freakin rain! >.>
Image

gota love them lightning rods.
Image

Probably the most menacing looking contraption iv built
Image

Dedicated stoked cruicible and cauldron buiding for mass production of matireals, 8 cruicibles and 8 cauldrons
respectivly.
Image

Massive auto sugar cane farm. fully funcional but i never did finish the structure it self. unfortunatly theres many
incomplte buildings in my world ill probably never finish now.
Image

My first windmill ever and long since abandonded, i never bothered to finish it even tho id pass by it constantly.
Image
Now for the crown jewel of my world. the mansion.
Spoiler
Show
Image
Image
Image
Image

The upper floors are mostly empty and house facilities are on the first floor and basements, i just wanted to make
something that would look cool from afar. i got tired of comeing home to my little wooden shit shack ontop of the hill.
with the rest of my base getting more and more built up, the mansion was actually one of the last things i built. :p
Image
Image
Image
Image
basement storage levels 1 & 2
Spoiler

Image
Image
Image
next we have my white stone bridge, besides the mansion its probably the largest thing i have built.
Spoiler

Image
Image
Image
and finally the bridge takes us to none other then the all mighty mob grinder.
Spoiler
Show
Image

Man, im guna miss these views. who dosnt love the wall of death? :p
Image
Image
Image
phew! well thats about it, theres a few other buildings around but not much to look at as they are largely incomplete. i
hope you guys have enjoyed the pics, iv seen some amazing posts on here over the last couple years and its great to
finally contribute again. if any of you plan on starting a new world, be sure to show off your old one here first! :)

EDIT:to fix a few spoilers, they didnt work the way i thought they did.

Your solution for storage organization as well as your "floating" mob trap are really nice.

...because bats spilling forth from bovine hootch is something you should most certainly never worry about.

I dunno man... that's pretty much all I worried about growing up on the farm. But I suppose that's what therapy is for.

I started a fresh world with the latest version of BTW, and wanted to show you all my first settlement structure :]
Spoiler
Show
My modernistic house/chicken coop/mushroom farm. I finally had a skeleton shoot at me through the slabs last night, but typically mobs ignore it.

Image

This is the narrow hallway going down into the structure, as entered from the left of the previous image.

Image

My chicken coop, started from one chicken I frantically buried until I would come back ready to settle. They look happy, yes?

Image

Opposite of the chicken coop is a trap door leading to my humble mushroom farm.

Image
Image

Before building my first structure, I dug out the side of a hill. When I no longer needed it I removed the torches and sealed it up, inadvertently making a very primitive mob farm for fishing bait, bones, ect.

A skeleton and spider spawned in my mushroom farm :[

If I dig a 2x2 corridor around my farm and keep it completely dark, will mobs prioritize spawning in there over spawning with the mushroom room?

Light up the mushroom farm, they'll still grow as long as the torches are I believe over 2 spaces away from possible mushroom locations.

Hey, this is my farms. They are based upon vioki and charley's farm design. I think I went a bit overboard with the hemp.

By the way I should also mention (so I don't get banned) that this is an actual game spoiler.

I'm not sure if you're talking to me so I'll just answer you anyways. It's Vattic's with a few extras that I added in, I plan on releasing it when I find the time to actually finish all of the new better than wolves items in it.

I've never shared any of my builds (you haven't been missing much; I'm a lousy builder) but now that I've almost finished my base hut I thought I might as well.

I've yet to iron out some little details on the stairway such as putting some moss stone on it. I was thinking of building a railing on it as well but when I think about it it's actually a little more fitting without one, seeing as how dangerous the nether became a few 9's ago. The reason I put the portal on the mountain was to have it closer to the gods for good luck.
