Quick History

A little history first. I joined RetroMC sometime in March 2020 on a previous now inactive account of mine. I was active on said account up until late 2022 after which I had switched to my current account under the name of MorningSteph. I started playing on RetroMC again in early 2024 and I did very little besides keeping to myself and working on small projects.

In late 2024 I began to branch out and interact with the community more eventually leading me to join a handful of towns and work on some small builds in them. In january 2025 I began constructing my Palace in my village which lead to me becoming incredibly active and eventually apply for and becoming a member of staff. However I made some very awful mistakes, let everybody down and rightfully lost that position and I am currently on a multi-month long hiatus because of said mistakes.

Projects/major builds!

"Palace Stor Kæstillion"

"Palace Stor Kæstillion" as of April 15th 2025 (Note structure is to large to be easily pictured in-game)

"PSK" as I'll abrivate it as is by far without question my largest project on RetroMC by footrprint at least. It is a colossal 100+ block area large structure that acts as the overkill centerpiece of the village Kæstilliopolis. It was designed by me on a creative test world in January 2025.

Construction And Terraforming. PSK was partially designed on a creative testing world before any blocks were placed on RMC. Before its construction could even start some major terraforming had to take place

Kæstilliopolis before any major terraforming "January 25th 2025"

The early process of the terraforming is humourously doccumented as "The Big Boom" which was an event which involved over a double chests worth of tnt being detonated in Kæstilliopolis with the goal of completly destroying the entire mountain range pictured above and flattening the marked area to Y65. Many other players were involved with the terraforming which were.  Q0AL,  E36Marshall,  Spencer199,  ArbiterGaming,  rsiva and  SevenBrokenVases. During and after the terraforming was finished some people had donated a significant amount of resources to the project  E36Marshall(Signicifcant terraforming supplies)  DogPool_(seven plus double chests of sandstone & twenty plus stacks of lapis blocks) I sadly don't remember what other players had donated.

After PSKs exterior was finished I took a break from the project to work on "Mezzanine Tower" However after that was finished I slowely started working on the roof which is intended to be nearly entirely made from lapis blocks however this is unlikely to ever happen now.

This palace has been without question some of the most fun I've had in Minecraft and I made a lot of friends in the process and its what got me deep into RetroMC. I really hope to return to it eventually however it will be some time. Little Extra. PSKs construction has been so long in the making that it will likely get its own dedicated page in the future.

"Mezzanine Tower"

"Mezzanine Tower" As of April 2025

"Mezzanine Tower" Is one of if not the largest skyscrapers on all RetroMC in pure blockcount and volume. The building itself is located in DogTown It was designed and constructed entirely by myself alone with little help outside of wool donations from  DogPool_

Mezzanine Tower before its construction.

Before the tower was designed it was intended to be a lakehouse and or resort building near the town center. I owed  DogPool_ Some kind of build in Dogtown for the sandstone he had donated me however I had felt obligated to do a lot more than just a lakehouse so I designed a massive seven story modern skyscraper. Mezzanine Tower features seven floors with fully designed interiors, with three functional elevators however two of which are fairly useless. Rooms are intended to be freely claimed by Dogtown members and used however they see fit the top floor is privately claimed by myself as I felt like I earned it after finishing the build.

Construction And Terraforming.

Little terraforming was done before its construction besides a hollow cobblestone foundation and some light digging. I personally view Mezzanine Tower as much less impressive than PSK as it was entirely built while I had access to staff powers such as flight and fast building.

Unlike PSK I had no help in its construction outside of material donations. construction began on Febuary 12th 2025 and was finished in only 16 days thanks to better planing, grinding and access to staff powers. As of writing it holds its record as the largest skyscraper RetroMC however I strongly encourage people to best it because that would be awesome.

Over a month after its construction was finished alongside Union Tower being finished I breifly returned to Mez Tower and finally finished its terraforming, flattening the area out and extending a path to it alongside a personal stargate.

I am very proud of Mezzanine Tower however I don't think its as impressive as PSK but I am thankful to have actually been able to finish it and have people build in it and enjoy it. And I really hope more people do things with it in the future. Also fun fact Mezzanine Tower was intended to be significantly larger than it is on RetroMC however I had to heavily compromise with its design in order to not run into other people's builds.

"Union Tower"

Union Tower shortly after being finished in RMCURA March 16th 2025

My last great project on the server was Union Tower which was constructed in RMCURA throughout March of 2025. It was made out of obligation to  Q0AL who had greatly assisted me with the terraforming work on PSK prior. It was made almost entirely out of leftover materials from Mezzanine Towers construction and a large amount of clay. and only took less than two weeks to construct as it is the smallest of my mega projects so far.

Construction And Terraforming.

I sadly have very few pictures of Union Tower being built and the ones I do have are pretty awful. it was hastily designed on my test world mostly entirely within a voice call with various other people.

Union Tower concept on my creative test world. Note the differences in design primarly the roof.

It is constructed mainly of snow, clay and spruce logs with an absurd quantity of trapdoors used as a detailing block. both towers which are named actually (Red is the Tower of Pride and Purple is the Tower of Envy) feature full interiors and both have a full water elevator and are connected by the skybridge which was shockingly tedious to design

After it was finished I have very infrequently returned to the build however I am quite proud of it! I am very happy with how its turned out and am happy that Q0AL and the other members of RMCRUA really enjoy it and I hope they use it for future events and what not.

"Closing"

Currently I am not able to be on RetroMC right now for obvious reasons however I have been wanting to write down the little history of my projects for a while now. I know some may not like me anymore but I hope I am still welcome here. Thank you for reading.
