Hi everyone! I am Captain Chaos, creator of WorldPainter. I want to create a demo server for WorldPainter, which shows off its features and the results you can achieve with it. I would also make the .world file available for download, and I would use it to create banners, screenshots, etc.. I'm looking for an experienced world painter willing to donate their time to create such a world.
Some aspects I want it to include are:
Not based on height maps or masks. There is nothing wrong with that, but I want to have this map serve as an example of what you can achieve with WorldPainter alone, specifically.
Using custom brushes and custom objects is fine however, as long as they can be included in the .world file download, and as long as there are also plenty of uses of the standard tree layers, the standard brushes, etc.
Compact, so players can see lots of variation without travelling far, and so that there are varied vistas available for screenshots.
Varied; using lots of different standard terrain types, and also custom terrain types.
Showcase all layer types and features of WorldPainter in various ways.
Including the more advanced and Custom ones such as Void, Custom Caves/Tunnels, etc..
Including advanced usages of those layer types, such as using Custom Caves/Tunnels layers for overhangs, arches, etc.
Including the standard Deciduous, Pine, Caverns, Chasms, etc. layers (but you can use custom object layers as well).
Showcase all tools.
Including the unpopular Mountains tool for at least some mountains.
Including the standard brushes (but you can use custom brushes as well).
Possibly excluding the rather silly Pyramid tools.
By showcase I mean that you use them to create the map, not that their use is evident in the result. The idea is that people can know that they could create such a map using the default tools and layers. This is not about creating a bunch of separate examples of each tool and layer, I'm looking for one beautiful, seamless and integrated map in which you happened to have used them all in various ways and places.
Since this a showcase it doesn't have to actually be playable. However it should be traversable, as I want people to be able to actually visit it on a server.
No, or very limited modification after the export. A few buildings here and there is fine, as an example of how you would integrate them into the landscape.
I'm looking for something really beautiful and advanced, that can function as a demonstration of everything WorldPainter has to offer, so it will be a lot of work and need someone who's really experienced. WorldPainter doesn't make enough in donations and ad revenue to be able to pay you, so I'm looking for an experienced world painter willing to donate a significant chunk of their time to the cause. You would of course receive full credit, including in a welcome message to players who visit the server.
Creating a time lapse video of (part of) the creation of the world would be a great extra, but is not a requirement.
If you're interested, please contact me and include some examples of your work. And if you know of someone who might be interested, please feel free to forward this to them!
It does look good, thank you very much! Is that WorldPainter-jungle in the background? And the patches of tall grass are WorldPainter-generated as well I think, right? But yes, slightly more default assets in the mix would not a amiss I think.
Anyone else interested in providing a sample/demo map for WorldPainter? Don't hesitate to ask any world builders who might be interested and might not otherwise see this.
That's just a little bit of it, there is much to show, but I'm not done yet, still adding biomes, painting blocks, etc, but most of the shapes of the terrain is done.
Thanks for your interest! I'll look at your work shortly. I'd like to keep this thread reserved purely for soliciting demo maps though, and not WorldPainter support, so would you mind editing out that part of your post and posting it in the official support thread? Thanks!
Hi! If its not too late... I do have a sample map that I made in like an hour or two and if you wouldn't mined if you could tell me what to improve that would be great! Then when I make v2, I will know your expectations and if its any good maybe you will choose it.
and I do admit I'm not the most advanced world painter there ever was but I have learned a good chunk of what it has to offer!
Keep up the amazing work on world paint by the way!
First of all: Thank you for this editor. I love it.
I am not too convinced of my own abilities when i see some of the maps that have been created with WorldPainter.. at least when it comes to realism, scale and perspective. But i'm a geology enthusiast and see and imagine things i just have to get into minecraft somehow. I've done a lot of it with WP, including extensive use of the cavern and cave layers, making custom brushes with it, creating special shapes etc.
I'm currently working on a large, detailed map with diverse geology/topography, terrain themes and biomes, exclusively with WP. If you're still looking for someone and have no objections about dealing with slow/awkward me on this, i'd love to send you some screenshots when it's finished.

I have a few candidates, but I'm definitely still looking. No reason it has to be one map. So yes I'm interested, keep me posted!

Hey Captain_Chaos! I'm interested, I've been working on a large large map for a Pixelmon server I am making and I can post some screen shots.

Will need a little more time for that though.
