Posted May 16, 2015 I may present to you Wooden ramp with cart parkslot under the ramp platform and wagon parkslot next to ramp. Story of how this became to be: Fought with stairs and hated them that i couldnt take materials with crates up to seconf floor which is in third level looked from ground as below it is two high hall design for ship building. So i desided to try if can build bridge inside house but that didnt work out very well, so i went outside and built platfor to right side of the picture where is hole in the wall still, leftover from experiments only to realise ramp to third floor needs to be max 20 slope and third floor is 63 slopes higher than ground so it had to be 4 tiles long ramp, so i decided to make another platform to left side of the house above entrance to the hall (if you can see the double door under the ramp). It worked and then it was just decorating house to better looking from outside. -Retired Viking Lord Ame 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2015 Just curious.. What is your skill? =O That bridge must be pretty high skill requirement! The ql of the dioptra makes a difference in how long a span you can build. I got mine to 22ql and could only span 8 tiles. I had to imp it higher to get what I needed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2015 i tho it was from both tools the lower ql determines the difference. so if pole is lower ql it check it from it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) This what i have been doing lately: Nothing too special but i think it looks kinda cool with the house connecting the two bridges. EDIT: now with plain stone walls and 2 finished parts further: EDIT #2:Finally finalized Edited May 17, 2015 by kekstier 22 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 16, 2015 (edited) Half the bridge is done - taken in the foggy dusk All material provided by Ivanson, and while I put in a brick he is done with 3 others Edited May 16, 2015 by Jaz 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 16, 2015 i would use pliers on stone walls on that tower first and second level, would look better (in my eyes) with plainwalls and top wall is normal. Very nice! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 17, 2015 We just finished this little cutie on my Xanadu deed, I just sailed by this area very recently. This picture had brought back memories of all I had seen. I have to say one of the more beautiful areas in wurm as many of the surrounding deeds have made a cohesive well planned arrangement of buildlings, plantings, and terraforming. Truly beautiful. Sailing by will surely give many others the same feelings. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 17, 2015 I ran out of likes once again on this thread. Sailing in Wurm will have a new level of as I try to spot bridges. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) Very very much still under construction, This is one of 4, 2 part bridges. one on each of the cardinal points. 3 wide brick arched. there is another 10 tile section to be attached on the gatehouse. And yes it does look like a roller coaster After finishing itll look more like a bridge. Would be awesome if we could do a true right triangle with arched bridges instead of having to raise the end tiles for clearance. Would also be very very helpful to have a finer grain of control over the steepness. Edited May 17, 2015 by sunsvortex 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 17, 2015 Looking at these images with a mixture of jealousy and anticipation. Jealousy that I cannot yet hope to make a decent sized bridge but anticipation for the day when I can. More pictures please Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted May 17, 2015 What exactly is that thing on the left hand side of the bridge? Is it a troll under the bridge and those are empty platemail boots from the people it ate? <---- is old and slow to get things, sometimes.

Posted May 17, 2015 3 stage bridge for wagon access to the second level of our warehouse over in Roadhouse located on the Northern shores of Exodus. Our first bridge completed, still a few walls to be added on the landings, was fun to layout, Zondo did most of the brick laying. He started at the warehouse and after laying bricks for a bit, he goes 15 seconds to lay the final brick! I look over to see just the first abutment complete, lol. When you start at nearly water level, it is very tricky to build a bridge, there is no way to bring it down to the current land level, but I think this worked out nicely as our first bridge project.

Posted May 17, 2015 (edited) Stage one of the highway is done, now the lower part to the ground is the next task. Taht will be a light work compared to this I'm sure. Edited May 17, 2015 by Jaz 25 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted May 18, 2015 This idea was tossed around the alliance and in my head today, and I had to see if it was possible on the test server. Though this screenshot is from test, I wanted to share with everyone this awesome concept! Its a boathouse! Finally, boats can be protected by a cozy roof, of course only aesthetically and not governed under the permissions of the writ however. I was also thinking that if you did the same concept within a complete donut-shaped building, the bottom of the bridge could create an arched dome of a roof - which could nicely house a long table for a dining chamber or a royal court. Cant wait to see how this is used in the future! Take these ideas and post here what you do with them! 38 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
