Well this looks like a good map to test out maybe if you add mo creatures and several mods I might be able to make a survival series based on wildlife wait a second can we make up our own story

Does this map have all the stuff that you find in real earth?

Lovely Earth, we have to protect him.

These people have way too much patience. My brain hurts.I hope to GOD that this was built on creative.

They didn't make it in creative mode. Or in Minecraft. They used a program and USGS data to create the file procedurally.

Now all someone has to do is make all the cities and houses where they actually are on earth now THAT would be fricken awesome. This is amazing.

interesting. do you know the name of the program used?

Nope. I wouldn't be surprised if they wrote it themselves.

Does it have the 7 summits Kilimanjaro, Denali, Elbrus, Aconcagua, Carstensz Pyramid, Vinson, and Everest?

what would be awesome is being able to fly into space and see the MineCraft world as a block globe. Nasa this Craft up! lol

Needs 1:1 version!

You already have it, it's called Real Life ™.

I think the 1:1500 ratio was chosen to allow making a map that will FIT.

I wonder just how big this map is.

Earth perimeter is approx. 40000 km at equator. At 1:1500 this is still 26 666 blocks wide. However, distance from north pole to south pole is only half of that. And of course, walking parallel to the equator, but near the poles, is MUCH smaller than 40000 km. So I wonder how the "Earth" was made to fit on a flat Minecraft map witout too weird deformations near the poles?

Also, if you continue walking NORTH (or whatever) after reaching the limits of the map, does normal Minecraft terrain generates?

Can someone tell me what year this map was based off, 'cause I can't find my real life house in Texas.


(P.S you should update the map to October 1, 2013, and start the map update on October 2, 2013.)

I think you're expecting a little more out of this map than is possible.

It's just the terrain, and every step you take is 1.5 kilometers. Your house just ain't gonna be there, man.

Not bad, not bad
