This was the original post, a minecraft creation I made with 70,000 quartz blocks on a modded multiplayer survival server.

To answer a few common questions:

I generated the materials using UU matter, it was not all mined by hand. Yes, I could fly while making this. The mods provide these abilities, but you dont START with them. It takes weeks of work starting with tree punching as always to get to the point where you can do fancy things like create blocks from scratch and fly.

Construction took about 80 hours.

The screenshot is from Dynmap, a mod that generates a google maps like view of a server that shows up online.

As requested, here's a quick flythrough: https://youtu.be/Z0sq9SR4kgI

To answer the MANY accusations that this is a 3d model imported with MC edit:

This is Binvox/viewvox. Its a program that can be used to convert 3d models into voxel plans. Here's the full original model in the plan viewer.

Single layer view

The actual overhead view that I used to place the blocks. This was open side by side with MC for the entire process.

This looks amazing, but I fear the lag it would generate. Can you adjust the size and complexity? ("Polygons")

This reminds me of the god hand in the operation genesis jurassic park game in the intro cinematic (a good old game not many knows of)

It's cool and all, but I laughed pretty hard at all that work for such a basic tower in the middle.

Architecture isnt my strong suit :-p Tower came first, hand was built around it.

I did this to make Kaufmann Stadium earlier this year. Sucked but was worth it when finished.

I've tried to do stuff like this. It turns out I don't have the attention span to build anything larger than that tower in the middle.

This is an amazing amount of dedication. I love modded and need to find some more time for it when I'm not programming dope plugins

I take it the tower to hand ratio is analogous to OP's penis?

fun fact: Minecraft was actually coded in JAVA, nit in C++ or C#,which to me makes it even more impressive

9 years ago | Likes 3 Dislikes 1

The Windows 10 and pocket editions were coded in c++ which is why the 10 edition runs so much faster

9 years ago | Likes 1 Dislikes 0

yeah C is waaay more resource efficient when it comes to game development(soon to be JAVA dev)

Don't get all the negativity on that post, this is pretty neat

People judge if others live and think differently. People assume Minecraft=no life, when any hobby is happily wasting time. Do what you love

It's more people assumed that he used a program to upload the hand in mc and claimed he did it by hand. Now get out of my dirt hut.

Because basically whenever someone sees something impressive that they cant do, they accuse the creator of cheating to feel better.

There is quite a bit of history of lying about making neat stuff in MC on imgur. I member 2 years ago posting DL builds as OC. 1/2

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

And Internet detectives going all Maury on those accounts. It turned a few people jaded. It's neat to me. 2/2

9 years ago | Likes 2 Dislikes 0

The negativity came because this looks too good to be made entirely in-game, so people assumed the OP lied about everything in the post.

This was on a multiplayer server, so the backups are over a gig each.

Oh, sorry to be so unspecific. I didn't want the map, I wanted Binvox.
