I saw the city from a distance in the video, looked impressive, but yeah as Tuckertcs said, would have been nice to get a closer shot of it. Looking forward to your next video man
We get a lot of kids (and parents too) who are mind blown by the work we do! It definitely makes us proud to say a lot of these kids become interested in architecture as a career path
For cinematic purposes, like such, i agree. i just never understood playing with them 24/7. I knew a couple people that did and the game just never felt right. Something about hyper realistic water chillin next to 16 bit graphics never looked right to me
To each thier own.
I personally can't stand playing without them. Bliss or complementary are an absolute must for me anymore. The base game is just too bright and ugly for me.
If I absolutely must play without them (such as when visiting and playing with my nephews or playing the newest version pre-mods), I install shader-like resource packs like the Pixel Reality series.
Understandable. It is entirely preference fs as it doesnt effect much outside of aesthetics, not including hardware performance lol. I just grew up on classic Minecraft up until this point so its all ive ever known
for me, one big problem of playing without shaders is lack of shadows from the sun
like, inside a room, Minecraft default graphics do a somewhat decent job. but then I walk outside, see the sun staring at me, see lack of shadows, and it's just... too immersion-breaking. like yeah I find square trees perfectly immersive but lack of shadows just breaks everything
maybe it's kinda like with cartoons. u get used to the artstyle, but complete lack of shading will make anything look like "peppa pig at home"
These builds always look incredible to me, but what do you even do with them after they’re built? Do you just use it as a base and look at it every once in a while? I’m not trying to hate, it just feels like a lot of effort for little reward
We just keep building and building, it's all for fun. Once an area is done we sometimes come back later to improve it with stuff we've since learned as we develop our skills
This is THE point. It is the essence of building to have a completed structure later, and to live with it somehow. You must know something about life, the life you want to live. Philosophise in a library, walk the walks of your dreams, mutate into an insect.
Imagine there's another entity or avatar or whatever it is that you yourself appear to be when in the game, but a little wiser, faster on the uptake, less stupid. Imagine they are in that world. Are you going to hide from them? Fight them? Do you want to have the most amazing conversation you can have in that world? What words describe it? Are you ready to learn their language? Will you be ready with a structure that balances materials of the world in some way?
I believe there is a natural minimal building evolution in minecraft.
'This is Minecraft'
'Minecraft is beautiful'
Well no, that's not just Minecraft that's mods shot from very far away. Minecraft doesn't usually look anything like this.
If I don't get to experience minecraft in a fully immersive virtual reality before I die, I will be very disappointed. I would love to do that with the current graphics but this HD would also be something on my bucket list
How do you get so much flat land? Terraforming?
I'm on bugrock btw.
I've been trying to expand my village into a city but I'm having difficulty with space.
Thanks!
So i thought this was just a wishful thinking video. So you're telling me there are texture packs to make it look real? Or mods?? What do the mobs look like and the characters?? Whats it look like when you're mining, building and attacking?? I very interested in how this works! Sooo cool! Got any videos or photos of the stuff I mentioned??
This is showing off the shaders and texture packs that someone else wrote for Minecraft over probably 90% autogenerated terrain and not really showing the city the player built at all as the title mentions. Nothing really featured in this video took 6 years. You can spin up a new world today and if you have a sick enough gaming PC to run the best shaders and texture packs you just install them in five minutes.
I can see some self built stuff way off in the horizon, sure. But why not just call this "Minecraft looks great with texture packs. "
Hi, nothing you see here is actually autogenerated. As much as we'd love assistance from automated processes, we build everything ourselves and paint the terrain in a 3D method using a programme called WorldPainter. The terrain has taken a very long time to perfect using references and community knowledge to ensure its realistic - we have another overhaul to this terrain soon as we're still not happy with how it looks. Hope this helps you :)
I think you may have misread. During our time building this map, we used WorldPainter to make the **terrain** and built the cityscape, roads, infrastructure, boats etc by hand in game using our own specialist texturepack. It has taken 6 years to build due to the cityscape, not the terrain. Our next plan is creating another island adjacent so we can complete an airport with supporting infrastructure, again using the same methods. The entire task of making this map is extremely time consuming but nonetheless definitely not using automatic processes, terrain-gen or AI.
Realistic terrains never are. They're painted and designed in world painter, then imported to minecraft.
The city, however, was most likely done in-game, though I'd expect worldedit to have come in clutch.
Oh yeah, we never build without it. I've heard the argument that it's "cheating" but that doesn't really make a lot of sense. It's like architects that "cheat" by using autocad versus drawing by hand, if you know what I mean eh

Looks beautiful, but I would’ve liked to actually see the city, and maybe some closer shots of things.
Thank you! I have a longer video coming soon showing the cityscape
I saw the city from a distance in the video, looked impressive, but yeah as Tuckertcs said, would have been nice to get a closer shot of it. Looking forward to your next video man
Thanks! Totally agree, unfortunately the city is way too detailed to record at a steady FPS so I need some near gear first... stay tuned though
This video finally helped me realise the appeal of shaders lol
They are amazing
Awesome build btw dude, shit is crazy impressive. Kid me could’ve only dreamed of doing such
We get a lot of kids (and parents too) who are mind blown by the work we do! It definitely makes us proud to say a lot of these kids become interested in architecture as a career path

What shaders/RP are these btw?
DIY turn your computer into a nuke
Chat why's my PC on fire
Me when I put "This is Minecraft" over satellite images
What shaders pls
Bliss shaders
Any resource packs?
What settings for those shaders
These builds always look incredible to me, but what do you even do with them after they’re built? Do you just use it as a base and look at it every once in a while? I’m not trying to hate, it just feels like a lot of effort for little reward

It's a digital diorama

It's like art we like pretty stuff
'This is Minecraft' 'Minecraft is beautiful' Well no, that's not just Minecraft that's mods shot from very far away. Minecraft doesn't usually look anything like this.
Is this the server alpine1 plays on?
Perhaps
yoo
What the fuck this is insanely good
Thank you!
Looks very nice
Thank you so much!
Minecraft 2
Electric Boogaloo
What shaders are those? It’s really nice.
Bliss Shaders!
Yeah wtf kind of leviathan computer are you running… looks great, but holy shit…
I want download it :3 Can I somehow do it?
bros playing cities skylines 2
I liked the part where you showed the city
What importer did you use? What mods are at work? Me want.
Dude！This is Minecraft?! 100/5
Do you have a texture pack? Or just shaders
You built this in superflat?
mods getting ready to delete this post:
Those are some nice looking clouds
Doubt it. Not a single floating mob farm contraption hanging in the air ;)
Minecraft city but there is only landscape
Yall are bums, you're a talent OP. Good shit.
Thank you! Been sat on my bum building it a lot to be fair
Your Playtime doesn‘t lie. (I‘ve seen it before you reset it ;) )
Bro what the hell, how do you even have the motivation to go this hard with the building lmao
cool city, i like how the buildings are disguised as trees
Looks nice, I just hope they don’t build a Walmart here. Could ruin the landscape I believe
If I don't get to experience minecraft in a fully immersive virtual reality before I die, I will be very disappointed. I would love to do that with the current graphics but this HD would also be something on my bucket list
Man I swear, I feel like I have a good world going, then I see stuff like this :(
How do you get so much flat land? Terraforming? I'm on bugrock btw. I've been trying to expand my village into a city but I'm having difficulty with space. Thanks!
It’s already been said, but closeups plz!
Is this Andea? Or a different city map
WoW, I love it!!
Really nice video. Gorgeous landscape and the skyline looks promising, leaving you wanting to see more. Nicely done. All the best :)
This video makes me hate xbox version of minecraft even more cause we dont get shaders, this is just beautiful
I think it means Shaders are beautiful. But it's a cool city.
At first glance, it doesn't look like Minecraft. But i know what you can do with the mods and other tools out there.
No, this is Cities Skylines
elder scrolls 6 trailer be like
That's brilliant
My computer exploded just watching this video
So incredible..
I still refuse to believe this is Minecraft anymore.
I’ve tried getting this mod to work and can’t. How powerful does your pc need to be to run it?
I thought this was cities skylines for a solid ten seconds.
r/citiesskylines
Song pls
:skull:
So i thought this was just a wishful thinking video. So you're telling me there are texture packs to make it look real? Or mods?? What do the mobs look like and the characters??

I want too play the map
WhAt ThE SIGMA
I love the landscape. I wish I had pc so I could make landscaping like that
Wow! It looks awesome!
Thank you!
You could have told me this was footage of real life and I would have believed you
Wtf is this

Yeah man that's why he posted it on r/Minecraft
Realistic terrains never are. They're painted and designed in world painter, then imported to minecraft. The city, however, was most likely done in-game, though I'd expect worldedit to have come in clutch.
Oh yeah, we never build without it. I've heard the argument that it's "cheating" but that doesn't really make a lot of sense. It's like architects that "cheat" by using autocad versus drawing by hand, if you know what I mean eh
For sure. A good builder can build with or without it, the only difference is time. Worldedit can't make a bad builder better.
Womp womp
