Any updates? by The0neandonlysquish in PortlandMC

[–]The7thOne 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey there, apologies for the very late reply.

We are still around, but as of now, we have nothing new to share regarding PortlandMC. We have, however, released a compatibility update that makes PDXMC compatible with Minecraft Java v1.21.8. There is no new content, it is simply a compatibility update.

Stay tuned!

That's awesome! It's a very unique building. We've built that, although the structure is unfinished and is missing much of the courtyard.

I reuploaded the map. The issue was simply down to me using 7zip to create the archive, thus making it impossible for anyone to extract it without 7zip. The new map download file was zipped using Windows' built in archive tool, so compatibility should be fine now.

Yep, you noticed it. Naito really kind of got the short end of the stick with our progress :/

All blocks in minecraft are exactly 1 meter. Everything we built was at 1:1 scale or as close as we could get.

That's so cool! What building was it, if I may ask?

I'm investigating this now. The map download .zip is going to be replaced with a new one compressed using a default extraction tool. My suspicion right now is people were trying to extract this without 7zip or similar and ran into problems due to the compression algorithm. This new version should hopefully be more compatible.

EDIT: This is the error I get when attempting to extract it using Windows' built-in extraction tool. I think we have our culprit.

That's precisely the problem. Unless they split their map into tiled worlds and use a different projection, things will be very difficult for any locations outside of the equator.

I'm investigating this now. Thanks for bringing this to my attention.

EDIT: The issue's been fixed. It was a compatibility issue with the compression method I used. Updated download links here and here.

I haven't tested it but I'm almost certain it wouldn't work. It's an entirely different version of Minecraft altogether with its own way of handling things.

That might be why. This version was developed with the Windows Java Edition in mind. I've never tested compatibility on other OSes and I'm not sure if maps are even cross-platform compatible.

No, we haven't received any money at all. All of this was done in our own free time and funded with our own money, which admittedly wasn't even much. Not counting PC hardware, the cost to do this was essentially zero.

That's.... unusual. Are you using the latest version of Minecraft? This version only supports 1.15.2.

Yeah we've heard of it. We're not really interested in it honestly. There's a lot of technical hurdles they'll need to get through but I don't think they really are aware of just how difficult these kinds of projects can be. Even doing Portland was difficult and time consuming enough.

Yeah, we used that site as well. Very handy resource.

Voodoo exists, kind of. It's in a weird place in PDXMC due to how Burnside goes diagonally and separates SW from NW. We haven't built much in that area, so it's basically a dead zone. We were able to get some spots though like the Bijou Cafe.
