I finished my concept (and took a screenshot of it because MCME-Gondor-Pack-2.5 hasn't been updated with the newest stuff).
 
Tree Concept Build
/warp Treebuild
[Commoner+]

According to lore, the following trees are in Ithilien:
ash, bay, cedar, cypress, fir, juniper, myrtle, oak, and olive trees
Click to expand...

This is a priority given the fact that the forests cannot be done until these trees are done. Please only do one of the trees listed below for the concept build as all others are already accounted for.

Ash: Thin trunk, tall canopy

Juniper: Short bush, spikey


Myrtle: Raised bush, wide canopy


Bay (small): raised, tear drop shaped canopy

Bay (tall): straight trunk, irregular bunched canopy

Cedar Variant: thick trunk, wide and sporadic canopy


If you have a better idea or concept, post it here.​

[UPDATE ON TREE BUILD]

No longer need the following:
  • Ash
  • Myrtle
  • Short Bay
  • Cedar Variant
  • Juniper
Still looking for the following:
  • Tall Bay
Reason I dont need em anymore is cus people made awesome concepts!
 
Update:

  • Stencils: All stencil lists have been updated. Though it seems like there is a problem with the big cedars as a lot of them were saved with wool still in em. I think I will resave the list tomorrow.
  • Terrain: The last terrain that needs doing is the North Low-Lands chunk. It is mostly done and will probs take an hour at max to finish up. This is the last bit of terrain work that needs doing to my knowledge.
  • Forests: Now that stencils are loaded, a forest concept will be drafted and implemented across Ithilien
  • Road: A new design has been made for the main roads, it will be implemented pending approval from project staff
In other words, JOBS COMING SOON!
 

So since I am gonna be gone for two weeks with limited forums access as of Monday, I thought I would layout a clear plan of everything people can be doing during that time. Hopefully you all can finish as much as possible while I am gone cus Ithilien is looking great. There are lots of jobs to be done by both staff and job work so plenty for everyone. Make sure to agree that a Phase is done before continuing as it could cause problems otherwise. Until then, @demonataz will be in charge.

Phase 1:
  1. Paste in all trees
  2. Detail the Fields of Cormallen
  3. Finishes all villages
  4. Add and detail all marked roads
  5. Add several ruined gardens
  6. Add vines to cliff sides
  7. Root fix everything
  8. Derp check
Phase 2:
  1. Make fallen trees
  2. Make stumps
  3. Make dead trees
  4. Derp check
Phase 3:
  1. Grass
  2. Hold off on other flowers/vegetation

Looks like it is coming along nicely, Fireinferno! I can't wait to explore all of Ithilien when you guys have finished.
 
Things to do to finish Ithilien:
  • Convert some "Wide Cedars" to "Lebethron Trees" (@@wodleth )
  • Add various vines on rocks/cliff sides
  • Finish root fixing
  • Add:
    • Fallen Trees
    • Stumps
    • Dying/Dead Trees

All of these (with the exception of the Lebethron Trees) should be run as jobs or artist work.

I personally will be working on the Lebethron trees and adding of fallen/dead/stump trees this week so keep an eye out for lots of jobs
 
Artists

Y'all can add some dead/fallen/stump trees of all sorts throughout Ithilien. There is a guide hovering right behind the "Ithilien" warp so check it out for the format/style. Otherwise please scatter them sparsely throughout Ithilien and, when you are done, put a glowstone tower above it so staff can check it and change the biome colors to make it more pretty.

Thanks
 
Starting now, brace yourselves for the Ithilien Job Marathon! Thats right, we are trying to close up North Ithilien by pounding out the last few to-do tasks this week so brace yourselves for a whirlwind of jobs! I personally will be working in the evenings West Coast time, but I know Lizzy and the other foreman will be working on this as well.

Below is the tree grid, staff will be running jobs within each grid section (as seen in the glowstone above Ithilien) one at a time with both artists and community members doing different tasks depending on what they need. These jobs will be Teamspeak ONLY!
 
Thx, fire, I will be looking out for these this week!
 
I like how we can see you on the map
 
All root fixing and grassing is done!

The final job is for artists and staff and jobs

Claim a row (A-G) by posting below and you will be responsible for adding dead trees, stumps, and fallen trees of all types in this area. When your section is done, you will alert me by posting here so that I can fix the biomes in that section and mark it is done.

Thank you for your help and participation
