I actually really like your base, looks surprisingly spacious in a small spaceHello,
love this post, many interesting worlds.
Here is my world so far, nothing is finished, maybe everything's gonna change, maybe not, who knows.
An overview of the world:
Some animal farms and bee stuff:
The processing area (need to be expanded, later):
And my AE mess:
Tree farm, wheet farm, stone/glass/nether stuff production, and... pigs. No logic. :
Little blood altar with a villager spawner:
The house. No comment. :
Sorry for the spam, and if my english sounds weird it's because it's not my native language. ;-)

Thanks! But i'm not even close to complete all the quests so I guess many things gonna change in this base, can't stay small forever, but for now i'm too lazy to expand and move all the things!
Actually IMHO I think it's better if you spread out. You make more chunk but each will take less tick lag and it leaves me with a better fps
I had mine about 4x4 chunks with stuff from y=30 to y=100, was very very very bad for my frames
A village is anything with a door with uneven exposure to the sky on both sides and a villager (if you're meaning a villager village)
So, just build a few house looking things and put in some wooden doors for them to detect
I'm not sure if it's in this modpack but there is a Village Detector block. (open blocks or extra utilities)
It shows a cube where there is a village.
experiment. One awesome thing with forge microblocks for example is that, if you don't like the design, all the parts can be restored to normal blocks after salvaging them.
Pretty cool builds.if you want an medieval look, check out madness64 on youtube
Here's a tiny little update on my build. The mob spawner/dark rooms. The lever controls the lights in the floor as well as deactivating the auto-spawner. The button controls the entrance into the room. The lever is connected to everything using MFR rednet cable, just on the default placement. The button is on a separate mfre rednet cable, using a rednet controller and t-flipflop for controlling the entrance. The entrance is just a disguised drawbridge.
There are two of these rooms right next to each other. With the safari nets removed from the auto-spawners, they are just dark rooms.
Here's a few screenies of my world, nothing as amazing as some of the screens shown earlier. It's still the basic plaform with wall, but I've moved away from cobblestone and cobblestone walls everywhere. Clear Glass Panels and Glowstone strips make a good wall, with good contrast without feeling too claustrophobic.
In my early game, I put some decking over the hole in the island, and had my cobble gen and basic farm there, with a small manual tree farm in the green area infront of the house. Some bits are still there. Made a small desert one day as I was bored with the manual sifting...

Hi,
done some work on differents areas of my base,
here is the thaumcraft area:
and I guess my house is gonna be a giant tree house, one day... :
I moved all the tech stuff under the island :
and there is no more giant tower as a mob farm but something more compact :
These areas are not finished yet, so... this is just some little changes since my last post.

Hi every one, thanks for all your maps. I'll show mine and i hope u like it!

If you want to see any place of my island or have any question about what i done just ask it!
P.S.: I'm from Argentina, sry for my grammar T_T

I just wanted to show off a small feature I've been working on. I've set up a hidden stairway and access to my ME drives. I have my ME drives behind a security glass wall (quartz glass), and can easily see them from below. If you stand at the bottom where the stairs would be for 1 second, the stairs pop out and a walkway extends, the glass retracts, and hidden lighting behind microblocks in the ceiling lights up to illuminate the upper level when accessing the drives. When you walk back down the stairs, the whole thing retracts and goes back to normal. The hard part for all of this was figuring out the rednet functions needed to have it all work from a single input, which is a silent, shrouded pressure plate on the floor in front of the bottom most stair. Walking across the pressure plate will not trigger the stairs. You actually have to stand there for 1 second before it will function.
On a side note, does anyone know of a free video capture program? I would kinda like to set up a video tour of my base at some point (or maybe just give a world download), to show it off. I've taken great care in trying to hide all the workings of the base to leave a nice smooth finished look to it.

Here is my first Agrarian Skies base.

Details in the spoilers.
From the beginning I made a conscious choice to preserve the shape and aesthetics of the original island. When I decided it was time for a bigger home, I used the original as a model.
And now the interiors.
And now the interiors.
My MRF tree farm, along with the associated industrial complex, is my biggest project yet. For aesthetic reasons, I wanted to set up a tree farm that grew individual trees. Even so, I still wanted to to be extremely efficient. This meant setting up individual planters, harvesters, and fertilizers for every tree. The resulting tree farm consumes massive amounts of steam and produces more wood than I could possibly ever use.
The MFR machines are mostly hidden within microblock frames. Unfortunately cover the tops interfered with tree growth. I am not completely happy with this solution, since some of the shorter trees appear stubby with their trunks sunk in the frame, but they mostly grow and get harvested fast enough that it isn't a big deal.
And here are the "roots" of my tree farm.
The tree farm is powered by this industrial complex. I have 8 high ovens producing steam to run the farm and the boilers and the ovens for producing charcoal. They roughly manage to keep up, but I think I could make them more efficient by playing with the water input some more. They are fed charcoal blocks by minecart chest, for fun.

See part two for my abandoned magmaworks.
My first big project was trying to set up a massive array of netherack powered ex nihilo crucibles an industrial magmaworks. I managed to complete the project, but the ticklag (for reasons I will explain) was so bad that I gutted it. The shell remains.
The towering windows originally held OpenBlocks Tanks full of magma. These were connected to similar tanks on the back with more tanks under the floor, lined with hundreds of fluiducts set to take out. My plan was to have lava conduits running all over my base for distributed power usage, and so I wanted to have as many inputs as possible to maximize the outputs I could hook up. Unfortunately, this caused massive amounts of tick lag. A shame, because OpenBlock tanks are beautiful. (Though their short render distance was also a factor in their removal).
The interior had large iron cages with layers of burning netherack, crucibles, and piping.

How are you feeding your high ovens to make steam? I am curious as I am using two max size high ovens producing steam myself. I have played around with them a bit and managed to crank my rf production to over 4k rf/tick between the two.
If you have a better, or simpler setup, I would like to learn more.
