The Paralon/Terralon project is now closed.



The project has ended. No longer accepting new patrons and the downloads will no longer be available.

Thanks to everyone who supported this project! Unfortunately I cannot continue working on this. I can no longer afford to keep it going and I no longer have a PC capable of working on the world painter projects. The project is up for sale, and may be restarted by a new owner in the future but there are no guarantees. The T&C and copyright still applies.

I'm happy that this project brought many people joy and good memories. Thank you to everyone who supported this, and to all those who have created wonderful and amazing things using my maps.

I think I need to tear a lot of Haven down and rebuild it from the ground up. I don't want to redo everything I've done so far but I've been stalling on updating this pack since like 1.18 and I just can't find the drive to do it. I load it into my game from time to time to try and get some of my inspiration back but a lot of times I wander around and just don't really like what I see anymore, and I think a lot of that just has to do with my style and texturing ability changing as the years went on.

Despite this, I don't want to let go of it just yet, but something definitely needs to change. I'm missing that creative momentum I had from the last overhaul I did and I want to feel excited about working on it again. Might need to step back and draft up some new concept art before I dive into it again...

I haven't made much progress with Haven lately, partly since I've been waiting for 1.20 to drop so I can properly update the biome colormaps, but in the meantime I've been tinkering a bit with a Default enhancement pack over the last few months or so.

I'll hopefully have a download ready for this in the near future. It's basically a mix of some light CTM, block randomization, some features ported over from Haven plus other projects that inspired me, and more. Also wanted to see if I could bring back some of Minecraft's old programmer art textures but in the style of modern minecraft pixel art (such as the melons for example)

I'm not planning on it being a huge overhaul of the game's textures, but moreso just an addon to enrich what's already in the game.

Just uploaded our map that we were working on as part of our project. It's not complete but I suppose it never is when you have a 16k map and are just building for fun. Its free to download via google drive, please check it out in the link below. We're no longer using it so its time we give back to the community we we're found each other. https://www.planetminecraft.com/project/first-dawn-map-8x8k/

Late to the party, but it's something. I wish it was easier to show off mangrove roots in the natural biome.

I'm very interested in seeing what my musically inclined friends and family come up with on this one!
