I'm not going to lie, while it's not legit, it's beautiful.

I'm doing my underground city completely legit and I actually regret it. This is going to take an extremely long amount of time and that's only the first underground city. The second will be accessed from an enterance similar to that of the Parthenon and will look like a park in the Nether.

Doing things legit is extremely hard. I can't believe I decided to start this project. It'll be big enough when I'm done, though, so that I'll be able to make a good 20 buildings in the area. Don't know what I'm going to do. I'll probably ask people for ideas when I finally get to the bottom.

Also, here's my progress for today.


I guess I can't say I'm upset. I've already found five 64 stacks of Iron at the top ten layers.

I'm just realizing the hugeness of what you are attempting. What exactly are the dimensions?

I wanted it to be 200 by 50(I said 500 in an earlier post, I don't know why) but the way it's set up it's 114 by 56. Let's assume I have 40 more levels to go. That means I have 255,360 more blocks to carve out in order to reach the bedrock.

Basically, one 114 by 56 layer which has a height of one block has 6384 blocks/bricks/squares to be taken out. Currently, I'm doing an average of about 1/4 of a layer a day. I don't expect to be done with taking out the entire volume for another few months if I continue at my pace. I am slowing down to work on other, smaller projects because this is very big for just one person.

Please note that there are huge cave systems which you can't entirely see yet which will make my job a lot easier because there will be less blocks to clear out. I almost feel silly for taking on a task which could take minutes if I just downloaded the proper mod.

I believe by doing this completely legit will earn you major kudos in the Minecraft community. I'm sure others have done similar things, but it's still downright awesome.

Mac, if you can send me the map, I'll put it up on my server and we can all help you with it. We'll do it legit and we'll be able to get it done quicker than just one person working on it. It's up to you, but with all our help you can probably get it done in a few days.

Also does anyone know if were allowed to post videos on here. I made a video of one of my minecraft worlds and I want to know if it's ok to post it.

I'm not too sure about the videos and I don't want to give you the wrong idea, either but... I've seen mods post POTCO videos before so I think something PG rated such as minecraft would be perfectly fine.

Also, how would I send you the map?

Go to your .minecraft, go to your saves folder, copy your world file, upload it to a file sharing website, and pm me the link.

Also about my video, I'm going to put it off until I'm done with my world and then take another video of the finalized version. Right now the video is 3 min. long and just shows the inside of my city, not much detail yet.
