3 years after discovering your channel and I'm still amazed at your skill! I just got a beefy computer and discovered world painter which is perfect because I want to create natural looking mountain ranges that give my world a more mystical feeling. It's going to be a pretty big project and I have to admit, a lot of my building inspiration comes from your designs. I still need to work on building into terrain but this video has given me some good things to think about.

[@ArchenOpteryx]

I really enjoyed the second city. The variety of levels, path types, etc was so intriguing!

[@WhosScaredOfDentists]

I LOVE the way this looks! Can´t wait till I have the time to try it myself in survival ofcourse :)

[@TheSuperSouthpaw]

Madnes, I love these new short tips for building videos. You can make them more faster and more often. I think they are much more useful than tutorials for improving one's building skills.

[@shelbystreet4062]

Thanks for this video, Madnes! It's been one thing I struggle with that's been keeping me from building on a larger scale. Hope I can implement these techniques! Keep up your good work. We appreciate it.

[@MegaApenstaartje]

Love what you are doin man! Especially that you are keep coming up with things no one would ever think of, like those garden fences and what not.

[@Sean13114]

Another amazing video, Madnes, keep up the awesome work. This was really helpfull, hills add a lot of dimension to a city, its all about how you work with the terrain, and yet again, you do it great!

[@gedgar]

thsi is the best video ever and i have been coming back to it over and over for years because its just a principle. it isnt confined to a certain version

[@samueljackjackson1799]

Nice video, but I think you could've made it better by showing some frames for good examples. Like finding a natural unbuilt area and showing how you could incorporate a building there. Just my opinion.

[@NickCaux]

The first one is what I use a lot and I really appreciate your use in that I find your vids really helpful and now I enjoy building giant cities thanks madness

[@Tarimoth]

Mah goodness, nice vid Madnes! Saw some stairs in there somewhere I think I'll tinker with - good stuff as always :o

[@demonmit1]

Madnes64, I have to say, every video you make amazes me. I play on the Xbox Version of Minecraft, and before we got access to upside-down stairs, building in your style became quite difficult. now all we are really waiting for is to have sideways logs and cobblestone walls. One thing that I have been trying to figure out how to build is a Medieval Factory. Now I know those two words really don't make sense together, but it is a build I would definitely like to see.

[@Meneervermeer259]

This city looks so alive this way! Great job!

[@ElizasVariety]

Nice videos man gives me so much inspiration for my self to build right now I'm working on my own medieval castle

[@Soulsphere001]

One thing I would like to see is a before/after image of some of these, because I have no idea how much of the original terrain you changed. But, I assume you probably changed the terrain as little as possible, except you must have dug out the flooring for the houses.

[@EBProductions]

i think its better to build the houses first but when you're doing that keep in mind where you want your roads to be. what you do not want to do is build a house and then build a house 5 or more block away from it. try to keep your builds close to eachother so you have a great city feeling!

[@JohnIvey1986]

This is really neat thanks a lot I love these videos man.

[@WhosScaredOfDentists]

This looks really frikken' awesome!

[@blehhgg]

Hey madnes, thanks for the vid ;) helped me alot, made me realise how simple it actually is :P.

[@FirstOHNameOfficial]

Madnes, you should totally do a tutorial on the "single building" house. It's amazing.

[@MegaLogman123]

U are the best builder ever. I play on the Xbox so I can't do all the designs. Anyway u inspired me to build medieval. Thank u so much for all the videos that u help me with. Thank u!!!

[@Lyezare]

Awesome video. Great tips dude. :)

[@FelixIakhos]

good! I love your vids, they're unique and usefull. Keep going!

[@meumembro]

You're such a legend, keep it up with the good work. :3

[@xx_slayer_xx3966]

Keep it up dude ur a beast loved it gained a sub

[@JayDeeMC]

This may be 5 years old, but this gives me so many ideas.

[@KeesieOilcorner]

Yay!, I asked for this video a long time ago :), thank you madness!

[@bbgdaryl]

It makes me happy whenever you describe things as "cute" and "pretty." So many men shy away from those words in the name of machismo. Lots of your houses are cute, much of your landscaping is pretty, but that doesn't mea you can't also build something frikkin epic (Kargeth and it's surrounding cities being a prime example ♥).

[@EstelienMayalinn]

Great video, great explanations. Thanks for doing this.

[@BenKelsick]

By the way, it's nice to see some of your old builds :D

[@HaydeosGaming]

You could probably use his watermill design and edit it so that the wheel 'turns' a big saw blade instead of the cornmeal grinder. With a few other alterations of course.

[@jn1149]

Your builds are sick madness

[@fmelendez427]

I keep crying when i see your builds there amazing

[@santiagolazarte6965]

Im loving your "notes"

[@Gogar72]

THANK YOU, best Minecrafter with medieval architecture! :)

[@XxCrazedCrackerxX]

Awesome!!! You should do more lets build tutorials like you used to

[@BenKelsick]

Wow, I just noticed the complete lack of subscribers in comparison to your awesome... Great video once again :D

[@ksmuthi6271]

I love your videos! Thanks!!!

[@blizzardof2011]

Thank you so much, I needed something like this.

[@EBProductions]

Building them after kid of works better. I'm just replieng because I see Madnes64 didn't. I use a simulair style so I have many experience. Its not hard and you don't allways have to make the houses smaller because they stick out one block, you can just have it stick out onto the road, in medieval times they were kind of messy in large cities. What's nice to do as well is to add streetlanterns and flower(pot)s.

[@hunterkocken63]

question how did u become such an amazing builder? love your vids they help me allot in building

[@khush293]

Wow. You're an amazing builder that city looked amazing I hope I can build has good has that one day

[@PikkelP]

Madness64 has made a video where to start building a city. Talkin bout - Medieval cities in Minecraft.

[@kingkusnacht]

A typical example for the easy one is Minas Thirit from LotR

[@MCsMRBONE]

So epic world!

[@benskelly1217]

I'm inspired by your ship tutorials! (And your building tutorials!)

[@J0EY999_]

I LOVE You Buildings!

[@gliterboykiller]

Hey I love your techniques I am wondering if you can do something on docks, ship yards, and even a small port

[@johnyevo6575]

hey madnes how do you design your buildings? i mean do you build a first version and then do another one thats better or do you just build something and then its a new design, all ready? and how do you learn how to build them, how do you put the "blueprints" in your head?

[@ApiaryGaming]

Is it best to build in superflat and create landscape or to use natural landscape? and do you use world edit for clearing large areas

[@OrangepowerT]

I Love these vids! I have been watching since yesterday. These are the best builds I have ever seen. But I was wondering are these structures functional? Are these building made with interiors that you could live in in game with beds, chests, stairs, ladders, and art etc?

[@opvrussian83]

you can make them functional, not all are just because it takes a long time to make an interior but some are and you can easily make any building functional

[@OldFaithful122]

Good to know at all times =) thanks for the tips

[@loupsolitaire1518]

As a... well, a fair builder i'd say, i thank you for those videos showing some good tips that are useful to total beginners as well as more advanced builders! If i had a suggestion for you... please, please put up a resource pack as the vanilla one really burns eyes out! :'( The faithful is much smoother and keeps the vanilla look to the buildings, so i guess it's the best one for you ;)

[@eoinfalcon2061]

Do more please love the tips helped me out thankes

[@RichTamm]

I will disagree at 13:00 very interesting look with build inside hill...

[@tomlemmers3946]

When I will start a village what is then a good place and with wich think should I start a harbor when I by the sea of a market square when there arent mountains and when there are mountains how can I make a building on. (thats what you forgotten to say)

[@kingkusnacht]

Hello Madness, Do you build roads first and then the city or the houses of the city first and then the roads?

[@Thebeardedorphan]

You should do a video soon showing the progress of your city maybe showing the percentage that you think you have completed so far

[@1989XboxGamer]

A very good and informative video. Could you do a tutorial for a Academy/guild house a large building but rather than being tall be only 1 or 2 levels but cover lots of ground. Its the last building i want in my town on xbox but struggling to keep it matched to your style that is probaly he best avalible.

[@kingkusnacht]

Thank you for the reply I will consider that during my medievel city buildings

[@nicksundstrom2304]

Would you recommend building the houses or the wall first for the easy technique?

[@Thenaar85]

Thank u for thia video...now i have some ideas for my city! When a how to build or a tutorial for a port dock? Thk for your time!

[@yochaoss]

A City Walkthrough Someday would be Nice :)

[@EnteonNL]

hi Madnes64, I was wondering if you could make a secret hideout, like under a ruin or something, that secret orders use (like assassins or rogues or something) I see it a lot in movies and I think it would be really awesome if you could make an awesome video out of it:)

[@infamousXsniper055]

Madnes64, could you make a video discussing how to make a flat wall into an awesome and interesting wall like the ones on your buildings?

[@caylis334]

Madnes64 I just have a quick question! How do you make the water look so realistic and beautiful?

[@mivapusa]

I would be _very_ interested in seeing what you could get out of Conquest Reforged

[@wittysquidy8746]

This video deserves more views and likes

[@duudehd9868]

hey madnes, i like your video's and i wanted to build my own medieval town but i can never find a good place to start it, could you give me a good seed or a seed you know thats great for building a medieval town? if you could help me that would be great but if you can't thats still fine, thanks

[@NickDarneille]

I am currently building a medeival town on Minecraft but the seed I picked is kind of flat in some places. I built many houses but they are not close together but not far either. They are like 5 blocks apart. And I want to build more houses in that specific area. How should I do it?

[@andersjensen3211]

Thanks this was one of te Things i had a hard time doing

[@PiggySwagPlaysGames]

Can you do a minecraft tutorial on the wall in 0:50

[@Janeator]

Very good tutorial

[@weareminecrafted]

I'm a big fan of your videos :) I've been watching them ever since I started playing minecraft and i was wondering how you start a build. Like where do you start building your city. I can build okay but I just have trouble on where to start my big city's. If you help me out it would be really awesome :)

[@leknfps]

I would do one big road and build houses on the left and right of the road but make the houses closer together so you get the feel of a medieval city hope this helps then make roads curve around the houses and keep building out

[@fdbuilds1891]

Please don't listen to koggz ;) not that his advice is bad just that it's harder to continue a city like that. First, find a nice area. Then map out where you want your central building. Thus could be a castle, cathedral, or even fort for a smaller city. Then, think about where you want the wall to wrap around. When you have figured that, then go with kaggy advice (sort of?) and make a road long enough to fit 4 - 5 houses on. Then continue the road branching it out in random directions. Make sure when you need to turn you curve the road instead of making 90 degree angle turns. Over at least 30 percent of these branches, connect those houses together via a bridge. Actually now that I'm thinking of it 10 to 20 percent is better. Once you have at least a few blocks done of these town folk houses, convert at least one house on every block to a specialty house. Continue this while building towers, smaller churches, town squares, castles, and other assorted buildings. Make sure to incorporate the methods madnes64 spoke about in this video, seeing as building across levels makes things larger and are essential to any city, town, or village even.

[@fdbuilds1891]

***** not kaggy, koggz xD

[@leknfps]

I completely forgot i posted that comment I only posted it to kinda help I arnt really good at building xD

[@fdbuilds1891]

koggz nah its good you'll get better

[@jamiemorris4490]

Great help thanks

[@Lucas-ss5xi]

You are a genius!

[@Mideomusic]

dear Madnes64, van you please make a video where you let see how i can make a city with medieval building and ultra modern

[@unopopo1]

Tried this and it is not as easy as you make it look. really takes planning and trial and error. Thanks.

[@sebastiancimbora7208]

The only thing I could think of I would change is the bridge, if it's defensive, I would make it from wood so it could be flammable in case of danger

[@BenniBodinJagell]

It is mostly made out of wood

[@yohaybobo4933]

Madness you should build a sort of underground/sewer blackmarket for a build

[@simonklinggaard2741]

you are a GENIUS...

[@arthurcoenen922]

your buildings are very nice ! Did you use world edit

[@wowters1]

You should do a tutorial or tips to build at that staircase at 9:45 :)

[@thisisart124]

how do you put housses close to each other and make it look good

[@EBProductions]

We have made a speed tutorial on that. I think it would help you out alot.

[@basderooij6498]

could you make a tutorial of a new tower design of yours??

[@Squizzely]

Could you do like, a tutorial on a lumber mill or something? I always have trouble with those >.

[@reeceevans5479]

very nice

[@aegirfreyr]

nice tips C:

[@cjbrei6443]

Could you make a turtorial on landscaping?

[@darwinist0701]

Madness how do I find a good seed or map or build in?

[@ProfSkittles]

Thanks a lot!

[@EBProductions]

We have seen like litteraly hundreds of comments like this one. If you would like to know we have created a detailed video where we discuss this topic as much as possible, unfortunately our videos don't get that many views and these comments proof that we (that video, in this case) are pretty hard to find. We don't like this either though but, yeah, cannot control people's mind. Anyways we think this video will be really helpful for you guys.

[@marco.pernigo]

I found this video really nice but not as helpful as the others. Maybe because I had already figure out looking around the server alone most part of the information of the information you spoke about. I would find really interesting a video on planification of a city, or maybe about .... I don't know, I don't want to have a spoiler the next video :D Sorry for the mistakes

[@Michaelanthony24680]

You should make a video just showing your city in different Texture packs.

[@stefanchannel11]

Can i use your kargeth map for a adventure map?

[@joeletten5186]

How about making your next Tutorial on the roades in the City itself

[@breeden844]

Where did you start in the town

[@AnarchyPipaa]

hey soy chileno y me encantan tus videos sigue asi ;)

[@farhanmohammad2360]

Thanks So much.
