This is a castle that i've been working on for some time. I've used over a 100.000 blocks, and it's fully decorated. The tower rises nine stories up from the ground floor, it has over fifty rooms, and it has a huge dungeon that extends three stories underground. it also has a very atmospheric garden.

That is an absolutely (and impressively) beautiful castle, jamsd. I wish I could help you with regards to uploading your world to a thread, but if it's as big as some of my Rising World worlds, it might too big to upload it to the forum. Instead, you might want to archive and upload a copy of your world folder to Dropbox, then share the link to it in the forum. Just be sure to copy the world golder to your desktop, and archive that copy. Don't risk that amazing build. Plus, if you upload a copy to Dropbox (or another cloud), you'll also have yourself a backup in case your computer goes sideways. I don't trust Steam to store a decent copy.
On a Mac, your Rising World worlds are located under:
Users/[user name]/Library/Application Support/Steam/steamapps/common/RisingWorld/Worlds/I don't know where they are on a PC, but I'm guessing if you can find your Steam folder, you can follow the same folder hierarchy from there.
Keep up the great work.

Thanks for your response :), as of now i have posted a separate thread that includes the download. I believe it works.

Beautiful castle! Must have taken a long time.
-
Wow, what a beautiful castle!
I really do like the roofs of the towers. -
Beautiful work. As stated about not trusting backups....have you blue printed your build.
I've been working on a large build myself, and I blue print each part as I finish it. I will not be able to get it in one blueprint, but the pieces can be reassembled if worse comes to worse.
I check the blue prints by setting them down on my single server just to be sure they are complete.

Yes indeed, also because worlds may be corrupted by updates. Luckily i have over 15 blueprints from every building phase of the castle, do you perchance know if the blueprints can be corrupted by new updates?
-
I dont know if that is possible or not. But, I copy my blueprint folders off to another location on my computer, just in case.
-
The castle is really beautiful!! I was impressed with how wonderful it is. my greatest compliments. really good.

It depends on your mount point. On Linux (also a PC) mine is /media/hd-raptor/Games/steamapps/common/RisingWorld/Worlds/Ie I mount my old WD raptor drive under /media.. (thus the /media/hd-raptor) but I could have mounted it under /mnt/xyz for all it matters. Default steam install will just use $home/.steam/steam/steamapps/common/RisingWorld/Worlds/
That aside - magnificent build.
Edit to add: the same applies with OSX (which is also a PC - intel CPU's and all these days) because it's basically BSD (ie a Unix system) and apple stole it to use as a base and create a fancy overlay. The guts remain the same - you can still mount drives anywhere you chose as far as I know, so you should be able to have different mount points.

These aren't mine, just some of the pictures that I'm currently working off of. Some of us are architects in the real world, and can build from scratch. I admire that, because I couldn't visualize a house to save my skin. So, for me, architects like Richard Meier are my go-to dudes.
-
Awesome! Are you going to build them?
-
Yes, I was planning on it after Christmas. My shop gets pretty busy during this time of year. Plus, I got the brilliant idea of offering my customers free gift wrapping, forgetting that I can't wrap gifts to save my life. So, I have a new skill I'm trying to cultivate
-
Ryan that is funny, and I sympathize as I can't wrap a gift to save my life. My gifts. when wrapped. look as though done by a 5 years.

The main idea behind gift wrapping is to cover the box holding the present...........I can cover the box.

I hear you there, Graysilk. Anyone can wrap a box, but I want to wrap a box with the type of skill and precision that my mom did. She'd take the flaps of the paper on the sides of the box and fold them into precise equilateral triangles. No matter what size the box was, there was always equilateral triangle, and the tips would always touch but never overlap. Now, the wife says "why do you military guys always have to be so crisp and precise with everything?" But I say it has nothing to do with my veteran status; if I forked out this type of money, I'd expect a fairly precise wrap job. After all, this isn't a pair of Penn State sweatpants for someone's Uncle Mike or an iTunes gift card for a nephew; these minerals are often times in the triple digit price range. And it's not just dollar sign that's a factor; buying from me means you took time to come to my house and looked at shelf upon shelf of rocks, looking for just that right one. So, the detail in my wrapping should reflect the amount of time and care that you took in picking the mineral out.
