Alderas City Minecraft Map



For real effect, we realise some people like to be immersed in a world of their imagination when reading about a project.
Please listen to this track while reading this post. We feel it truly makes you understand what is Alderas.

Welcome to Alderas City, one of four Capital Cities being built for our server, Dracosis Dimensions.
Alderas City is part of the current world technological superpower, Elavius' Empire. This is mostly to do with it being home to many High Elves(Aldrimine), who are incredibly smart, adaptive, creative and orderly beings. Due to this High Elves spend vast quantities of time making brilliant technological advancements within Elavius. From the first Airships to the harnessing the use of electricity and steam power, progressing them into the dawn of an industrialised civilisation.







Currently, Alderas is being built by our Builders and help from a professional builder named SlayerSnici (known for many of his masterpieces with ElysiumFire, Lux Studios and Avezia Community). Alderas also contains some of Gazmo's work, as a basis for inspiration. This city is built on a custom terraformed mountain, to give it lore accuracy. The terrain itself is hand painted by the Grandmaster Jannekloeffler.

Elavius, although in a medieval setting, is currently leading the world in its technological advancements, and because of this, Elavius has a very steampunk feel to it, with houses, factories and even basic public transport utilising steam power. Many buildings such as factories or landmarks such and Giant Clocks (Like Big Ben in London) have distinguishing features such as machine clogs or steam exhaust pipes. Here are just a few pictures below. Although we will be using Conquest, these pictures were taken in the default resource pack for people who like to see raw unaltered images. All builds are first made in our flat world so we can design it and create it, then we paste it into our designated area, then begin to fill the city piece by piece, slowly merging it to one piece of art.








This is only some of the progress so far. Alderas is by no means complete. We will update this thread with more images and information as we further the progress of this bewildering city.

Greetings!

We've decided to post weekly updates to keep you on the top of your toes in excitement! This week we have finished the port for the city of Alderas, which can be seen here:

------------ Update 10/4/18 ----------------

Greetings!

We are currently working on the slums of Alderas city. Due to the vast amount of people crammed into the ever shrinking city of Alderas, the ground itself has become tainted and polluted from all the "working class citizens" living here. (Peasants, they're peasants). Elavius' Empire, being ruled by a compassionate Emperor, utilises the latest technology available (and affordable), to offer all of the "working class citizens" more dignity and thought than other Rulers would; because of this each house is fitted with a albeit very basic, but functional waste system, which is disposed of through the sewer system of Alderas. (Although it is still utilising steampunk technology so the seweage is pumped out of the city). The slum town also offers a communal bathing facility where citizens can safely bathe, and take care of personal hygiene concerns. This facility is also fitted with public toilets.

Alderas is an evergrowing industrial city, bursting with new ideas and constantly requirign further space to accomodate buildings, resources and facilities. The population is constantly on the uprise with new faces appearing every week by land or sea. However the space is limited, this means that every inch available has to be used and expanded upon. The slums is the worst area for this, with dark, dingy alleys, poorly lit walkways and houses, at night the slums can be a literal maze to navigate. We have tried to accomdate that sense into the slums as much as we could. Every building is a breath away from another. Many houses are small, tightly packed, and run down. Time has taken its toll on these poor structures, many with more holes than a fishing net. Not all of these structures were built to be safe, or to last. As a result of this gravity has swiftly brought its hammer down upon several houses, causing the ground beneath them to sink, sliding the houses off the sheer cliff face.

The slums, although still incomplete, so far can be seen here:


If you would like to partake in our journey to create Dracosis Dimensions a complete roleplaying / RPG fantasy survival server, we are still seeking talented builders who are interested in joining our team, and developing themselves as well as Dracosis.

Jannek one of our map creators, himself has recently been helping out with out building, and by gosh is he extremely talented with nature, and finishing touches. Due to his finishing touches, the city is nearly complete, and better than we had originally pictured.

This city is very nearly completed. Stay posted for some cinematics, fancy pictures and maybe even renders over this next coming week. We will try to offer a complete visual tour for viewers as well as this project will not be available for download.

We will seek to gather further detailed pictures to allow for players to see the reality of the busy trading port and the strength of Elavius’ military.

We've added new images to our gallery of the city. Now with conquest and shaders for that fancy render mastery effect. While we're hard at work, we'd like to thank everyone who's taken an interest thus far. :)
