I just started trying this map out, and I encountered a bit of a problem. The hotel across from the spawn building has a jukebox in it. I'm a bit of a packrat and into some creature comforts so I tried to take it back home with me. Twice.
Both times, as soon as I break the jukebox, the game crashes, which is disturbing enough, but when I log back in, the chunk in the center of the hotel is -GONE- completely, and I fall all the way to the bottom yellow layer and die. When I respawned, I went and looked, and breaking the jukebox just deleted that chunk permanently.
This doesn't seem like intended behaviour, but is it? If it isn't, I thought you should know.
It'd make one heck of a trap if it didn't crash the game to do it.
Edit: The building with the HOTEL sign, the jukebox in the lobby.
I was looking for a good adventure map to make some videos
I'm a spanish youtuber who is beginning on uploading videos to Youtube, and I decided to play your map and uploading it haha
Here are my videos (in spanish of course), so people who speak Spanish can enjoy your map
Hope you enjoy it
Great video! You didn't see the mushrooms hehe. By the way, you can break anything, glass, stone.
I've subscribed and like! And added your video to the planetminecraft project. Good luck with your channel!
This was my first adventure map, and aside from the horrifying experience of the vanishing chunk bug, it was enjoyable enough I'll probably try many more, even if the next few are disappointing. I achieved every objective, including the harder ones, except one, but since I achieved a bonus objective, I'm counting it, but I'll put that all in a
Okay, the map was amazing. I had the same inclination as others to not want to destroy it with what I did to get things done, but I am a big fan of post-apocalyptic stuff in general, and as the book said, you "Do what you have to do to survive." I followed a bit of a theme, though--I dismantled beds to use the 'sheets and pillow cases' as climbing material, I treated everything in world and in character as much as possible. That means I didn't go to the End or Nether because, seriously, if I knew how to do that in the real world, there'd be portals in my secret bunker.
I went through every building except the empire state building and the top few floors of the rubble leaned into it, and the variations were enough to keep it from being boringly repetitive. Particularly when running into one of the special rooms, usually at the top.
I also didn't walk the blue bridge because getting in there sounded a touch suicidal from the outside. I dd look down on it from above, though.
The Sphax texture pack is just perfect for this, and anyone not using it is seriously missing out on some atmosphere.
My only real complaint was the lack of certainty about when some of the challenges were met. The two big world challenges in particular.
Also, as someone else suggested, a few personalizing touches would go a long way without adding a lot of extra work. A few written books, some written signs, or using the feature (not available when you made this map) to rename some mobs and objects.
Everything chosen for appearance was amazing, but for those, like me, who go through lighting everything up, the ice windows might not have been the best decision for functional play through.
Sorry about not being able to do a video, but I don't have any idea how, and if I did, I'm not sure if anxiety would be a problem or not. Here's that list of challenges and my reactions to them:
Main challenge:
-Find a working vehicle.
...done? I found two that worked, and one that took me to the end. However, the ability to easily come back, even with the book in the chest and the credit sign, made me confused about whether or not I found the 'right' vehicle, particularly since trying to use it again got no response at all. (Minecraft also having an "End" didn't make this less confusing.)
Other challenges:
-Find food in abandoned buildings.
Easier than expected, but spaced out enough to make it a challenge early on.
-Chop down a tree to get wood.
-Make a refuge. Must have a chest, a workbench and a furnace.
Done fairly quickly. Honestly, I have no idea why I immediately started looking up when trying to find a tree.
XD
-Find clothing and medicine.
I made 'clothing', and went on the theory that everything I found in the hospital was medicine
-Craft a bow and arrows.
-Make a map.
The bow was essential. The map, for being basically useless, was a lot easier and cheaper to make than I'd feared.
-Find a renewable food source.
Finding was simple enough with all of the skeletons I killed and one of the dirt blocks actually being a grass block. Making it actually renewable was not easy at first; the random number generator didn't want to give me seeds when I harvested wheat.
-Tame a wolf.
Sadly, Harry and Sally did not make it all the way to the end. They and their unnamed pup were taken out as a family by a single ninja creeper.
-Use the Empire State Building's antenna.
Define use. I used it to look down on the map, and I wound up wearing it. IF that's using it, I used it. If there was something else, I missed it.
Challenges for experts:
-Destroy the skeleton spawner.
Done! ...and done. O.o shouldn't that be plural?
-Destroy the creeper spawner.
-Destroy the spider spawner.
Also done
-Destroy the 5 zombie spawners.
I got four of them, but since my total number of spawners eliminated matches the total here, I'm okay with that. :>
-Destroy the hidden silverfish spawner of the subway.
I thought this was going to be a serious problem, but finding it and taking it out both proved to be, frankly, a little too easy.
-Increase the population of villagers living in the subway.
Creative thinking required to avoid a -lot- of work and potential disasters, but I got my CHUD population up to 5. Unfortunately, this was all out of character thinking due to the nature of village mechanics.
-Build more rooms in the subway.
Two. One for chickens and one for sugar cane. Also an expansion on existing space for the CHUD enclosure.
-Find the 9 blocks of dirt and make a 3x3 wheat farm in the subway.
Done, then used the dirt for more diverse purposes.
I was hoping I'd find anything I could use without going to the End or Nether, and for the most part, I was right. However, if there was any nether wart squirreled away somewhere on the map, I never found it. Of course, I realize I -could- have gone to the Nether with what was available, but as I said, that didn't feel right to me. Besides, there was soul sand available!
Remembering that this is my first adventure map, and I have no experience to base this on except my fresh experience of this map, I'd give it 8 out of 10. If I were in critic mode, I might go down to 6, but I wouldn't have had near as much fun if I were in critic mode.
From the hour or two I have played this map is very enjoyable I really like the buildings and the bridge is well done. Hopefully tonight I can finish the map but anyways I loved it and keep making map like these.

Woah! Loving the hell outta this map. I started a series on it (made sure to put all the credit where credit is due!) and I think it's going quite well! Well, actually... It's going terribly... I'm not doing great, to be honest
Of course, it'd be awesome for you guys to sub and stuff, but I'm not demanding it
Can't wait to play more of this map! In fact, I think I'll go record more!

Good video! like and sub, let me know if you do more.
YEs it is a road on flatland but you can go back to new york with a lever and complete all the challenges, did you find the subway? did you used the empire state building antenna? did you destroyed all the mob spawners?
Your map has been super fun so far. Its a really cool twist on survival and I love it. I'll be finished in a few days and will add my review if it matters.

Thanks and yes your review matters. Tell me what you think about the map and what could be improved please.
I love it! I love all the details... I think in my last recording session (which I haven't released yet) I spent some precious moments in the midst of my zombie apocalypse commenting on how nice the crosswalk looked! XD
Yeah.. See above comment! I just love your map and it looks so amazing, it hurts me to break it! But don't worry, I have started breaking blocks and farming a bit in the upcoming episode.

Used the subway as my base and went to the nether. Empire State's antenna is my first thing to do(since it was interesting). Nope, not destroying those spawners. They're annoying, though.

I'm thinking of adding some cars aboveground and inside buildings. I was thinking,"No useful car on the streets. Roof, maybe?' and I searched above. Aaaaand I'm dead.

Thanks you, It's not intended.

I think it's a minecraft bug.

Nice, you can break blocks.
Thanks! Nice video.
Nice, you could get wool from the cars to make a bed.

Under the antenna there is a room with screens and buttons, try pressing these buttons.
