Village/Outpost Ideas

In the near future I want to try to design my house as a series of smaller bulidings, making up almost a village, or even an outpost style of home. Either way, I was wondering if anyone could post some screenies of ones they've seen for me to draw some inspiration from. Thanks !

Scout around Vesper on Europa. To the left of the Ironwood Inn right outside of town they have some cool buildings. I posted a house that has 4 building on the plot for you.

Re: Village/Outpost Ideas

too bad those houses can't fill my need of storage , i got a dual house and 80 secured chests for my main storage (armor, arty's, wepons etc so not even counting the crap i have and the baggs all over my place )

Re: Village/Outpost Ideas

Thanks for the picture, that's given me a few ideas. If anyone else has some out there, I'd love to see them!

Re: Village/Outpost Ideas

Umm.. well you can always look in my photobucket site if you like, but a lot of these are old and tired worn out stuff ;) But if it gives ideas, you're more than welcome. I know there is a lot of great stuff too on some other sites, (Rainylain, stratics, this forum, markee dragon, etc etc etc)


Just go to the subfolder "UO" , and then choose a location...
http://smg.photobucket.com/albums/v495/Alynora/

by the way, the location does not designate a style, just where I happen to have built stuff...

One example was this one in the Tokuno Isles... and it was great fun when I finished the deco as I ringed the roof with crystal balls and gems to make sparkly lights...
and it is much larger on the inside than it looks. there are multiple levels of illusion here, so much so that in trying to reconstruct it, one friend got very confused!



Crumbling Isles (done years ago now I absolutely don't claim anything on the later addition of the tokuno style houses in this combo. The original design had a building that fit with the rest of the plots...)






Marble Island:
yes, this is two separate houses..

(and hmm, maybe I should put the windmill back up on the island, it's one of my favorite designs, and actually much larger on the inside than it looks)



(also larger on the inside than it looks)




and of course the maps to marble isle which can be found in another thread here have also multiple house designs, multiple small houses on one plot as well as a total grouping.. dunno if this helps

Re: Village/Outpost Ideas

It's not easy to do cadethepagan.

It took us an extremely long time and a lot of luck to get so many buildings on Marble Island. We also had a little help from friends in getting the first one there. Doesn't hurt to mention that we are also a little crazy to hold so many accounts... but then again there are at least 3 people that share the accounts, me, my husband, and his friend/one time housemate (who now isn't playing again).

Re: Village/Outpost Ideas

aww thanks

I would have loved to have roof tiles at the time I worked on crumbling isles. It would have made things a lot nicer then! And I would have loved for some of the others to let me work on a whole design for the place at the time.. but well, ya know... Anyways, later I had the offer to do so by the group that later bought most of the houses and realigned them, but it was a bit strange to go back, so I never really did it. They couldn't make up their minds what they wanted anyways ;)
