First CFUK house: my water fountain which had a not so secret entrance to it. Building a replica to it now.

First single player house: A Sand box without a roof because i was confused to why the sand kept falling and i though other blocks might aswell... That was actually just a hole in the ground though...

When I first started on single player, my house was a 1x1 pillar in the air. Stood there until daylight, got so bored. After that i developed into a 10x10 hole in the side of a mountain

My first house was a nice wooden house about 8x5. it also had a rather large wheat farm and a guidance tower in construction which i then proceeded to fall off and kill myself. Of course at the time i was a total noob and built my house miles from bloody nowhere. I lost my house and ragequit the world

Re: First house
beagrie, Fri Jun 29 2012, 08:31AM

I wouldn't call it a house, as such, but my first "dwelling" on the server was a 3x2 dirt hole that I hastily made when the sun started going down. I spent the night hiding from zombies and skeletons that knew I was there because they kept scratching around my hideout.

There was also a Flightster lurking about because it was my first time on the server. I'm sure he was snickering behind his keyboard as I cowered in my warren.

First single player house: a dirt shack with a few planks of wood based in a snow world (this was before biomes when you had a random chance of the whole world being snowy)

First CFUK house: A 10x10 wooden tower with a glass front.

Re: First house

First CFUK house: put ladders on a big tree and hollowed it out.

First single player house: 20*20 dirt house with some cobble and glass

My first house was a little cabin right next to the spawn. The spawn at the time was just a little building. It was right next to a pit of sorts. I planted trees around it because I had trouble finding trees.

Shrapnel, Sun Jul 08 2012, 05:12PM

My first SP house, as far as I can remember was just a single-floored wooden house, roughly 10x6 with only a couple blocks of head room. Had a ladder down to a cave, with an added stream and a (one way...) rail line to another outpost.

For MP, though, I made a leaning tower out of cobble and glass that was rounded on one side, flat on the other, with a waterfall along on the hanging side. Kind of funny looking...no screenshots, though.

I'm not much for building a lot, unfortunately...

Hole in the ground, both on SP and on CF

No actually on CF I started by covering an island with torches, the digging came later, and it wasn't until I found a particularly epic cave that I really started to go underground. The funny thing now is how much grief it caused me trying to make a safe enterance, the first time I broke through was at ceiling height and I hadn't properly figured out the gravel drop method so I lost a full set of armor by falling in then having no way to retrieve my stuff. The second breakthrough was too low and ended up in another tunnel below it. I think the third try actually hit floor level. Since then it seemed logical to build a farm underground, eventually I might move the cows down into a cave, clear the island and use it for a decorative build.

Single player I mostly relied on tunnels near the surface, didn't realise the importance of ladders and mineshafts, and the nearest thing to a house was the creeper resistant bunker I built in cobble as a tunnel entrance.

in SP i started with a 4x4 dirt or wooden house, don't remember. Next thing i managed to do is get a large forest fire started burning everything down. Including the house

Re: First house
conathan, Sat Sep 08 2012, 04:33PM

Don't quite recall single player, when me and bcman (My brother, he hasn't been online for a year or two) started, I usually picked the side of a cave (By the water). he did a large dirt house, and later had a few paths in the top of a mountain.

As for MultiPlayer, CFUK was at the top of the server list, and gave it a try. I think it was the 2nd map I started building on (1st one had broonie's house [i], in the middle of a tiny lake). It had Mine City, but I went down by the water and built in a 6 block high hill, and expanded to build underwater. (There was a large pyramid that went as high as possible in those days as well by other members). BCMan built tower city in the same area, so eventually I did build a spleef tower (Rebuilt that a couple times on later maps, but afaik, never used it).

No pictures from that era, unfortunately. (Although I have some of my resort, competing with Frozen Peaks, a map or two after (2nd picture is the basement of the first picture)

My first house was a cobble front dug into the side of a jungle hill not far from the MOD fenced area at ship spawn. It totally sucked but it served it's purpose for about 3 days
After playing MCsp for about a year my brain is stuck on "must be bigger... BIGGER DAMNIT!"

Re: First house
, Tue Sep 18 2012, 02:15PM

in single player i set up in the side of a mountain. the "house" was made out of dirt, sobble, stone, wood, glass. a true mess.


in multiplayer it was near spawn, when we had the old west-themed spawn ah memories.
i made it out of cobble, birch logs and wooden planks, with basements, one floor and a small attic.
