Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) Ok so I raised this building area for a castle up to 540 slope and now I need a bit of help with ideas for the actual layout. Looking for some designs !! The area is almost a full 9x9 cube. Carpentry limit is 99 I will hire somebody if needbe for the plan but I would like to keep it at 6-7 stories high.Ignore the green tiles, they show some slopes. The grey tiles are the flat building area. For reference, an approximation of the path going up. Edited August 6, 2013 by Elen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) So i assume some of 9 and h are a slope and cant be used either? Also what is the carpentry skill limit for the building? Edited August 6, 2013 by Kegan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) you can get very cool ideas from herehttp://forum.wurmonline.com/index.php?/topic/71682-multi-story-house-pics/ Best is to see what kind of design you like the most.. parapets/ iron fences / wooden / arched wallythe 3D deed planner works real good for just tryin out different stuff. Id suggest you to put all the consentration on the sides that are facing to water/desert, and less stuff to ' no one will ever see this side 'something like this what Odynn madehttp://i.imgur.com/wMZFx2F.jpgwould look real good on that high slope And I suggest you to leave 1-3tiles walking space on the edge so people can enjoy the view ^^ Edited August 6, 2013 by silakka Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) So i assume some of 9 and h are a slope and cant be used either? Also what is the carpentry skill limit for the building?All the grey is flat and buildable. No carp limit for plan but 6-7 stories is my goal for height. Edited August 6, 2013 by Elen Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 6, 2013 So i guess the green path is flat too then? Well i will give it a go later and see what i can come up with. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 6, 2013 So the tiles east and south of the green ones are the actual ramp, while the grey area is completely flat? And does the ramp start from the top right, or the lower middle? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm gonna edit that since I worded it badly. The path up would be pictured like this (probably still a bit off since I'm working from memory).The grey area I measured and is all flat.

Posted August 6, 2013 (edited) Ok so first idea I did was horrible because it didn't have enough space inside for stuff. Here's my second attempt. It's 2 buildings, outer one is 56 carp requirement, inner is just 30. Outer building has stone brick floor for top level, while the inner building has a slate roof. From high above (for structure): From the south-east corner of your diagram: View of central tower from inside edge of outer building: Ideal of open space in outer building: Edited August 6, 2013 by Wraithglow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted August 6, 2013 Hmmm now I know what you've been doing over there all this time. I hope you come up with something sweet. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 7, 2013 Well i did not spend a lot of time polishing it up and making it more usable but here is what i come up with for you. Now after it was done it says it takes 103 carpentry but then i started it said 93 on the large building so you might have to tweak it some or it might be a bug with the tool because the base did not change so..idk http://pastebin.com/zGJnCA3u Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted August 7, 2013 wow- kegan, you will design my next project! Anyways, Elan if you are someone like me who is to lazy to make mortar, than just build the lowest floor with stone.This looks quite good in wurm and has a medieval character since back then they were common back then.

Posted August 7, 2013 As much as I'd like to submit a design I'm already working on my sanctuary/asylum and if I start designing right now I'll end up redesigning my tower again, and I already have a screwy spare wall plan I can't delete.I've no idea what server you're on, but if you're on Indy gimme a yell and you can come see the place I'm building. Chances are you aren't on Indy, or at the very least aren't interested, but good luck with your project nonetheless. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
