Cerulean Island - Work In Progress
Okay, so I put my old world to rest, and instead began this new project based on my previous ideas, but hopefully with a lot more detail and care. I've finally began to understand CAW so I'm hoping this project is more successful
Basically, Cerulean Island is sort of a hybrid of my old Italian themed project and a mix of things I just find interesting.
Spoiler:
The city and beach is going to be one large city based on three areas of Italy- Rome, Perugia and Senigallia. The valley district is going to be a small, near-countryside town. And the town district will be in the middle of a large city and a small town.
The world is HUGE, and will consist of three major districts and various smaller areas.
Spoiler:
And I've been working on the lighthouse today, and I like the rocks surrounding it but worried that there's too many for slower games to run.

ME GUSTA MUCHO. Where'd you get those cool rocks? And your water level is a bit high.

The rocks are the Egyptian ones from WA, and I haven't changed the water level I don't think, I don't like doing it anymore after having a major problem with the water in my Hogwarts world which never came to be.

Re: Cerulean Island - Work In Progress
Nice! I like it so far!! I'm looking forward to see the completed look
I don't have the time or patience to build a world lol.... (or learn how to and I've tried!!)
I applaud those who managed to build one!

The water looks that way because I turned "fog" off in order to see the whole map from so far away. It looks like regular water in normalz And I couldn't find a nice-sounding colour, but now I'm tempted to have Saffron and Goldenrod City

Re: Cerulean Island - Work In Progress
This does look great! I definitely think that you should add a residential area to your CAW because a lot of players like playing in suburban areas.
Did you manage to get the lighthouse's light to work? I have heard of a bunch of creators have issues with that aspect of the lighthouse.

I haven't actually tried with the lighthouse yet, I'm a little worried about that now though!
I'm slowly moving forward, but yeah, really slowly:
Spoiler:
These are the two beachfront apartment blocks (there will also be about three small apartments and a few beach houses). Does anyone have any idea on building inside the shells? I've followed tutorials but it keeps coming up with "Can't do that." I'm thinking it's because I built them on a foundation? The science facility, which is on a small pier-type thing, but not anywhere near the sea due to various problems I'll be adding a large underwater aquarium in a dome near here, but I'm slowly growing to hate the dome object because of it's size.
EDIT: The grassy terrain will eventually be replaced in various areas by concrete/sand/etc. Hang on for that, I'm working on it

The foginess effect is in CAW, but all it does is show your world in different states, like, bright, dark, and one that looks like it's part of the sun. But I'll probably stick some fog in it somewhere, I've literally stuck everything else into my ideas for the world
UPDATE:
Spoiler:
The slowly growing beachfront. The apartments (which for some reason I still can build inside of) and the train track + subway. Future home of a diner, construction site, film studio and a pirate themed water park. The large aquarium. Basically stuck all the rare sea fish on one lot. Gonna tidy it up and make it look nicer eventually. The first "hotel" style apartment block. Gonna have about three different ones on the beach front, then a restaurant and a few beach houses Going for an OTT tacky style but still trying to keep it kinda subtle.
