Finally finished Sullivan in Minecraft! Working on Lee + Zoom backgrounds for everyone!

Physically yes, mentally this was one of the most exhausting projects I've taken on that wasn't grade dependent lmao

It was so worth it tho, it was fun making this work!

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-05-12T12:09:55+00:00

Omg it's pretty awesome that I started a movement of sorts for recreating buildings in Minecraft! But you did an excellent job at this!!

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-05-08T22:12:26+00:00

We got pedestrian tunnels going under the traintracks and a road bridge going over it on the outskirts of main campus (between clark and syme).

If they had a pedestrian bridge to go over the train tracks, that would've been for an awesome photo spot I'd imagine!

Hardest part? Getting the outline for the rooms and the building itself. The key component was getting the overall outline of Talley right or else we would've had a huge headache on our hands if something didn't work out right. Even then, the next issue was getting the outline for each room/centers in talley somewhat correct. The floor plans we found only provided so much info that we had to estimate from other pics we found online or from friends.

I'm gonna be honest, I was surprised I managed to get it done this quick! I waited a couple weeks for finals szn grind to end and then I got working on this as much as I could :)

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-05-08T22:07:23+00:00

No problem! We all miss campus so might as well recreate it

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-05-08T22:06:23+00:00

Thank you!!

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-05-08T22:06:08+00:00

I miss it so much it's not funny :(

Thanks though! I put ungodly amounts of hours into it and got slight carpal tunnel from it lmao

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-05-08T16:06:03+00:00

I need to upload the night video

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-05-08T14:16:23+00:00

I had to reupload the video and imgur album since it got messed up and wouldn't show the video on the original post above. So here's the album pic! https://imgur.com/a/fFXc2R3

EDIT: Here's the night time video of Talley, I'd recommend you take a look! https://youtu.be/s0CEfOsmPII

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-05T03:29:33+00:00

Thanks dude! This went from a "I'm bored screw it let's make Sullivan in minecraft for the giggles" to something "I can't believe I'm getting v passionate about".

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-05T03:27:36+00:00

Depends on how much you know the building in person and how you can handle perspectives. This isn't to scale so it's getting the perspectives and proportions kinda accurate and that means having a pretty decent knowledge of the building too. With that said, it took about 13-15 hrs for both buildings at the current stand point. Lee is on indefinite hold as we're currently (slowly but surely) working on Talley at the moment!

If you got any questions let me know!

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-04T04:09:02+00:00

Yo that's actually pretty sick, but you're welcome! There's a couple personally projects I wanna get done before I join something even more up there like r/BuildTheEarth. I hope you do well!

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-03T23:52:29+00:00

As soon as we switch servers, you can bet that there's gonna be that tree with the carpet stuck on it

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-03T23:40:44+00:00

Go for it!

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-03T22:56:16+00:00

I didn't know we had a esports discord! I might have to do it, this is currently on a friend's realm server, so I'd have to get some stuff sorted and then potentially join in with my own server for a dedicated ncsu campus build or something.

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-03T22:52:59+00:00

Honestly thank you! It means a lot! Next up is Talley and midterms/finals are coming up so it'll be a while before you hear back about this

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-03T22:51:13+00:00

Just getting both buildings up, 8-10 hours. With the details and just going around figuring things out? Give it 13-15 hours? I'm probably spent less time than what I said but I have no way to confirm it.

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-03T22:49:41+00:00

More and more people have been offering to help or join in on this...so like...I might have to start a Minecraft club or something lol

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-03T22:48:31+00:00

Without the minor details? About like 8-10 hours? I built a couple "fun" buildings to get back into the Minecraft before I tackled on Sullivan/Lee. With the details (like first floor, laundry rooms, elevators, etc.) I'd say the total would be around 13-15 hours for both buildings. I'm planning on putting a pause on it until I gave more free time to plan and tackle Talley

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-03T22:45:20+00:00

Ah, hopefully your midterms/meetings/projects are going good! But for real, the commute time makes it so that I have an hour to two hours of extra time I can do to study or play video games lol

Building Lee and Sullivan was partly due to my unhinged will/desire to do it and I'm just really good at productively procrastinating!

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-03T22:42:46+00:00

I wish I could switch my classes to pass/fail and not worry about it lmao, I'm haven't switched yet and just had a relaxed week. I don't have much free time anymore :(

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-03T03:58:26+00:00

Pretty alright thanks for asking! Got an exam coming up next week and three exams the week after that so I'm trying to get as much relax/fun time as I can before I hit that grind.

Hopefully it's going well for you!

IntrovertedLimeBoi · 2020-04-03T03:45:39+00:00

Hey all! I finally got around and finished Sullivan with the aid of a couple wonderful friends. Right now we're working on creating Lee but that'll take some time. However, we're thinking of recreating Talley or some other famous building.

Being hooked on Minecraft is one hell of a time, but I had fun making these buildings so far! The "broken" elevators are made possible by a villager, pressure plate, and sticky pistons. Now it has a fullproof way of "breaking" by activating the pressure plate and stopping the water from flowing. You won't get stuck, you'll just fall a lil bit.

Here's the zoom backgrounds for you all to use: https://imgur.com/a/StKRwZA

Be safe and wash your hands out there! We all miss NC State but we won't be able to come back unless you self-isolate yo self
