4:57 - When importing a Minecraft map back into World Painter, you generally shouldn't import maps that already has buildings or trees. World Painter exports the blocks shown in the default top down view, so any houses/trees that has overhanging blocks will all be exported as the block shown in the top down view. It's hard to explain how it works, but generally you should avoid importing terrain that already has been built on. One way to get around this issue, is to use tools like World Edit. When you've exported your updated terrain, you can copy your already built city/houses into your new terrain. Edit: But please, before you do anything, please make sure to always backup your world, just in case anything goes wrong.
@MCGamer-tj9nr Жыл бұрын
It’s because world painter hasn’t updated past 1.8 . so when you export it back all new blocks would disappear

the world painter advice is so much more important than people think it is, most people just build on super flat, which is fine if you're a beginner. but world painter is by far the best way to make realistic terrain!

I just wanna say this first thank you for making these videos, they have helped me be more creative, and have added a whole new layer to my Minecraft experience. Secondly, I started a new city a couple of days ago and I intend it to be my best one yet after binge-watching your videos. The other “Cities” I've made before this were just tiny roads with random buildings, but I guess we all start from somewhere right.

Very helpful, thanks. Currently building two cities in Minecraft, one on Java Pc and the other on mobile. Due to hardware limits I tend to create buildings with only ingame materials, so that even the addons all fail it wouldn't do that much harm... I find that for PC, keeping an older copy of minecraft helps a lot since nothing really changes on it. I can use my addons forever. Now with Android soft locking data folders I couldn't really import any of my worlds if I am to get a newer phone, my solution to that would be finishing up everything on my IOS and eventually porting them into an older version of MCPE on my Android 9, quite a journey but gotta keep the bloodline running :)

Hey man! I love your videos, and I’ve always found them really helpful, and so I hope this comment finds you well. Just a tip; I’ve sensed a pattern of you starting most videos by talking about your own cities for one or two minutes, and as great as I’m sure you are, it’s better to get to the point with the video. There aren’t many city videos on KZfaq, and so when I click on the video I expect to get what I want to see immediately, but instead I usually see 3 minutes of you asking people to pay your rent and talking about your cities, and this often disengages viewers. If you get straight to the point you more likely to get subscribers, however the only reason I haven’t subbed is because of this. Again, I love your videos and on the whole find them very interesting as their aren’t many people who are as interested in Minecraft cities as me, and this is meant in a constructive way. Also, Alpine1 subscribers pls don’t hate on me for this.

I've started a city starting with a beautiful big house with a wraparound porch and driveway, with a nice fountain in the front with a road leading out away from it, which is where the rest of my city will be built. I'm gonna take architecture from real life(from Thomas Jefferson's home Monticello, Washington's home Mount Vernon, Andrew Jackson's the Hermitage, and James Madison's Montpelier. I'll add skyscrapers eventually. This video helped out as far as planning where my road goes and how it connects everything on the map!

I would seriously appreciate your skills being dedicated to making some rules of thumb more for actual Minecraft survival multiplayer cities itself instead of bringing real life to Minecraft. I think a city with roads designed for horses, walking paths and public transportation in the form of mine carts would be a super interesting topic and make a pretty unique video while still being in your realm of expertise. Otherwise, great video I enjoyed it.
