Dear EpicQuestz,


I was looking at the new things of the coming update and then I got this awesome idea.
In the movie, Pippin light a pile of hay to show that Minas Tirith needed help from Rohan. I think it would be great for the people who download this map and for the people on the server if you would make such a pile of hay bales to sometimes when you play faction (I don't know if you do such things on the server) you light it to show that you need help etc. It would make it just a bit more fun and more role-playish. I hope for everyone that you use this idea!


Boro.

Hello EpicQuestz,


My name is Alex! I am the head of a youtube channel called SwitechBros. Me and my youtube team are going to start making a minecraft video series called DerpCraft, and I just found your map and I think it's great! So I wanted to have your permission if we could use this map as the setting for DerpCraft.


Alex!

I have been wanting to download a Minas Tirith map for a while now, so I can play in the legendary city with my younger brother. This website is the most secure that I have found, and yet when i downloaded the zip i almost ran into a virus. Still, i have the zip folder now, but I'm not entirely sure what to do with it.

How do I save it?
Where should i put it?
What do I do so that I can play on the map?

If you could help me figure any of this out I would be more than happy- this map looks Phenomenal and I would love to get to look at it more.

Thanks :)
And great job ^_^

Well when you download it click 2 times very fast on the line down on your screen that show's the file. Then it must open the WinRar if you have it. Then click Extract To and there will be a line where you will be able to write- file website (not file website, but a same thing as you find the websites in internet). Then search there your Application Data page search .minecraft and search saves, and then down there will be a ok button, click it wait some seconds. And it will be in your minecraft maps :D. Sorry about my bad english.

Hey, is it ok if I use your map...FOR A MAP xD. It's gonna be a adventure/survival map and uses the pre-release for mc 1.5. Also, for that I will change (but mostly add) some physical changes. I will send you the map before I release it so you can agree or disagree. Please respond asap :) (Btw AWESOME MAP)

They once were, but the file size got way out of hand. All finished builds you can download individually. We do however have a map with all the builds on, plus the terrain between them, however it will probably never be released.
