Hey guys, I wanted to share with you two projects of mine I've been working on for the past 6 months, Sonic Adventure Minecraft and Shenmue Minecraft.

The goal is to attempt to recreate the entire game of Sonic Adventure in Minecraft in this huge map that incorporates both the action stages, hub worlds, the entire city of Station Square from Sonic X, Sonic World from Sonic Jam and possibly the entire game of Sonic 2006 as well as plenty of my own areas into a huge streamless map.
So far I've been keeping all of my watchers on deviantart updated with the project and I've now released the first beta of the project for download.
You can grab a copy from here: thecrimsonemo.deviantart.com/journal/Sonic-Adventure-Minecraft-is-now-up-344619949

In the beta (Sonic Adventure Minecraft Beta v1) you can explore all of Station Square, Speed Highway, Twinkle Circuit and plenty of areas of my own design that's been added to the map including city streets, shopping malls, underground subway stations and much more.
You can see video walkthroughs of the project in action here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=xdLYLznq73M and here: www.youtube.com/watch?v=CHpRgzJxmvM as well as my journals showing off screenshots and keeping up to date with the progress.

The ultimate goal is to try and have this project finished within 4 years though there is no actual set deadline as I am the sole person working on the project.
Right now I'm currently working on the Westopolis area of the city (Not the Westopolis from Shadow the Hedgehog, though it shares the same name, this city lies in between Speed Highway and Sonic X's version of Station Square and acts as a bridge of sorts to tie the two distinct cities together to make the transition between Sonic Adventure and Sonic X feel more natural, so you're not simply walking from one version of S.Square into another)
Westopolis is actually based and inspired by The Stratford and Westfield Shopping Mall in London, England so a lot of the inspiration for that area comes directly from my travels there.

As for Shenmue in Minecraft, the project is currently in an extremely early build, the goal of the project is to recreate the entire world of Shenmue 1 and 2 in Minecraft as one big world that joins all of Yokosuka, Hong Kong, Kowloon, Guilin and Guiyang together in one huge map.
Though I won't just be copying the map design by a 1:1 scale, I'll be expanding and redesigning it to make it feel more realistic and believable. From Ryo's house in Yamanose, you'll travel throughout Sakuragaoka and into the hugely expanded city streets of Dobuita, travelling for miles until you eventually get to Amnihama harbor, there you'll find a lifeboat on board some of the ships so you can actually set sail across sea to actually travel all the way to hong kong. (or of course you can always travel to Yokosuka Station and Simply take the underground tunnel to Hong Kong, it's up to you)

From there, when you approach Aberdeen Harbor you can depart and head for Wan Chai, when you reach the Golden Qr. district there will be two main roads. One will take you to the bus depot where you can then depart and travel all the way to the walled city of Kowloon, the other takes you to the boat yard where you can either set sail for the great mountains of Guilin and go on a long nature filled hike to Bailu and Maio Village, or you can set sail for the Chinese City of Guiyang, which is featured in my fan fiction novel which attempts to complete the story of Shenmue 3: thecrimsonemo.deviantart.com/gallery/24749516

This project itself is far from finished and the only area thats been built as of yet is Ryo's Family residence and rough parts of Yamanose, so there's no download link as of yet but you can see a sneak preview of the project in action on my Sonic Adventure Minecraft walkthrough video (during the last 15 minutes)
I don't plan to do more work on this project until Sonic Adventure Minecraft is complete but if the demand for it does grow, I would be willing to try and multitask between the two or put one project on hold for the other.

When both projects are done I have something FAR more ambitious planned, as I truly want to see just how limitless the map size for Minecraft really is, I'm planning a project which is currently codenamed 'Minecraft World' where Im actually going to attempt to build real world towns and cities from around the globe in Minecraft using Google Maps and Google Street View to help me.
If it is indeed possible, I'm going to build all of this in one gigantic map as a sort of fictionalized recreation of the world in Minecraft. So far I have roughly 70 to 120 cities from all around the world I plan to recreate though my main focus of the project is England.
I haven't really attempted much work into the project yet but I have started planning out parts of Cheltenham Town Centre, England.

If for whatever reason the project is a failure or is too ambitious for my own good then I want to at least attempt to recreate Cheltenham, Gloucester, Birmingham, Exmouth, Exeter, Paighnton and Torquay from the United Kingdom, in separate maps if I have to, but the ultimate goal is to try and create one big, seamless world for all of these towns, cities and countries. Linking them up through highways, underground railways and sea.

I'll keep you all updated with my progress as time passes, though you'll probably get a faster response from me on my Deviantart page, here: thecrimsonemo.deviantart.com
Thanks for taking the time to read all of this and I hope you find the projects interesting.

P.S. The screenshots I'm uploading are from a very old alpha build of the project taken in July 2012. The project has grown a lot since then and the uploaded youtube video's represent a more accurate depletion of the map's current progress.

I haven't really updated here in a while but pretty much everything in this page is out of date now.

I'm going to be releasing Beta V2 soon which will have significant improvements made to the project, Speed Highway now has skyscrapers in the stage, there's a lot more buildings and scenery around Station Square, there's an entire city being built behind Speed Highway and I've begun work on Emerald Coast as well.

I'm not really going to be updating here anymore but follow me on DeviantArt or Youtube if you're interested in the two projects and want to see more.

There's already a new 50 minute video on my channel as well as another one coming soon and a download link for BetaV2 will be coming along with it.

Take Care.

For some reason whenever I try to update this post the site crashes on me, after more than several days of trying I give up.
If you wanna see more of this project, follow me on Deviantart @TheCrimsonEmo or YouTube @SamThompsonX
I've recently uploaded more videos showing more up to date versions of the projects there anyway.

Btw I wouldn't stress too much over that progress bar, both projects won't be finished for years so it's going to be on 20% for a -long- time.
