I know i'm not that cool in the skinning community but I want to do this anyway.

YESS. THE POWER TO MAKE ME CUTE IS IN MY HANDS!

Imagine getting advice and the exact opposite of the advice is happening behind you.

A L E X A N D E R WE ARE MEANT TO BE!

Please join our dorky family!~

I wanna get my crap together and try to

1. make better skins.
2. make a nice looking profile that represents me.
3. Be more active on Planet Minecraft. My plan is it make my skin with the Skindex editor I like it more and then upload it here. Maybe disable my account?
4. Get closer to my planet minecraft peeps.

Yeah so this place will be under construction for awhile.

We added a PMCSkin3D Lite Edition today for users that only want or need the basic tools while making skins.

As skin creators become more comfortable or seek to push their craft, they can move to the Advanced Edition which is the full featured editor.

We hope this helps introduce even more artists to skin making and our PMCSkin3D editor.

Smug Dance.

Since launching PMCSkin3D, our skin editor has supported the creation of HD skins...

Today, you can publish HD PLAYER skins to the PMC skins section!
While they are listed alongside standard definition skins, they are easily identifiable and filtered using the "Format" filter. We support 128x128 resolution because it's officially supported by the Bedrock Edition.

Besides the higher resolution, it's easy to identify HD skins by their isometric preview and label "HD Bedrock Minecraft Skin". HD skins can only be downloaded. We are unable to support remote change or papercraft.

Game Version Support
HD skins are officially supported by the Minecraft Bedrock Edition and unofficially supported in Minecraft Java Edition with the use of Optifine the MorePlayerModels mod.

Note: If you've already published your HD player skins in a blog, you can republish them without taking down your blog. It's up to you.

I'm doing commission soon. I wanna make a form. Any ideas or things you wanna see?

Contest hosts - We've been adding results to the Calendar! If your deadline is greyed-out and you'd like the results of your contest included, please let us know in the comment section of the calendar and link to the results. Deadlines greater than 2 weeks will be removed to keep things tidy!

Interested in hosting a contest or event of your own? Below the calendar you'll see several tips! You can also refer to this tutorial for an in-depth guide. Banners aren't mandatory but they are encouraged because it not only attracts attention, but it might also end up on the pop reel, which means more visibility and possibly more participants! We also include new contests with banners in the PMC Weekly. Be sure to check out this How to guide by DinowCookie if you're not sure where to start!

Don't see your contest listed? Please provide the title of your contest with a link, type of contest, and deadline in the comment section of the Community Event Calendar.

Another note: we're always accepting PMC Weekly Feature suggestions! Whether you're proud of your own work or someone else's work caught your eye this week, send us a PM with the link to the project, skin, pack, mod or blog!



Have a great rest of the week PMCer's!

"Don't touch me!"

"Eh? Why?"

"Oh! I hate social interaction."

Ay! Just finish making my space theme profile? How do you like it?

Boop! Hey all you cool cats and kittens! Just a reminder, there are 4 days left in the PMC Lucky Block Data Pack Community Event! What's a lucky block, you ask? When you break a lucky block, there's a surprise inside! Woop woop!

What sort of surprise? Well, that's up to you. Once you figure out what sort of fun (or not so fun) surprise you want your lucky block to do when broken, all you have to do is change a few lines of code. It's easier than you think with the help of a framework and tutorial series by Bertiecrafter! Seriously, even if you're a beginner but you have a good idea, we encourage you to give it a go!

The final result will be a PMC Lucky Block Data Pack, stuffed with surprises made by Members!



Another quick reminder: The Interior Decorators Contest is now in its review phase. There are over 100 entries! Help your fellow PMCers get the the final judging phase by giving a diamond to your favorites.

Let's have a great week, buttercups!

Join us!! TODAY 16.00EST - 22.00CET on twitch.tv/gheppio and watch as a city generates with over 300 buildings from over 50 builders who participated in the Contemporary Edition Project Contest!

Happy Friday, everyone!

We've mentioned it before but wanted to reach out through a wall post just in case you missed it.

Has a submission caught your eye this week? An art blog, skin, project, or pack? Perhaps your particularly proud of your own creation. Maybe you have a funny Minecraft joke or comic! PM us! Tell us a little bit about why that specific submission caught your eye or what you like about it. We will consider adding it to the weekly, which is typically published every Saturday over on the PMC News Forum!


Hope you all have a great weekend.

hey minecraft whats up haha

Hi PMCer's! We're thrilled with the response we've received from the Procedural Metropolis Project Contest! Gheppio updated the FAQ section of the contest description as well as the official forum thread to include the most common question's we've received. If you have a question, it's likely answered in the updated FAQ so please take a moment to read it :)

We're seeing some great entries so far and are excited to see more! Happy building!


Can I build more than six houses?
No, at the moment 6 houses, and one submission, per person is the limit.

Do I have to build interiors too?
It’s highly recommended.

Is there a specific style we should build in?
The city generation will create paved roads, so anything "Contemporary" will make sense. We wanted to keep the theme as open as possible while ultimately generating cities that will make sense.

Why are there slab borders and building limits in general?
Slab borders are needed for house spacing, that’s why you must leave them, and the air above them, as they are. They are on two sides only, this is correct; you can build up to the edge of the other two sides. It’s suggested to fill the surroundings of the buildings with the same slabs because that's the city's pavement, in this way the builds are better integrated into the city layout :-)

What about water, is it allowed?
In some rare cases it may cause problems when houses are placed by the structure blocks; anyway, water is allowed. If water presents glitches in the rotated instances, it will probably glitch also in the final city! If possible. Try containing water pools only with solid blocks, and not with stairs or slabs only; they're the ones which glitch the most. If not possible, replace glitching water blocks with ice that it will melt down after your house is placed. If there are still some glitches or problems, they’ll be corrected before their integration in the Infinity Matrix.

Are we allowed to incorporate command blocks and redstone into our builds?
It's better to avoid complex circuits, while they should work fine, I'm afraid that if too many people build complex circuits that "do stuff" in their build, than this will make the machine much heavier to run on low spec PCs.

I don't want to risk that some people aren't able to generate their cities with your builds included because of this problem! If you want to do a special lighting system with redstone or a teleporting elevator with command blocks it’s ok, but try to stay contained and absolutely avoid automatic machines! Your devices must be user-activated!

What about the streets? How are they made? I’d like to make a parking lot or a building with road access…
The roads are 7 blocks wide, 3 blocks per lane and 1 for the centreline. Roads are made of the grey terracotta already present in the building sites, at the same level, pavements are made of the same stone slabs of the 2-side border, at its same level.

If you’re building something that needs a road access (e.g. like a parking lot) place the road-sized entrance/access aligned with the "entrance here" passage for 1x1, 2x1, 1x3 and 2x3 plots. For 1x2 and 2x2 instead, put it on the middle of the left or right chunk. In this way I can reprogram roads so that they connect correctly to your car entrances when your builds are placed in the city!

Are the items in chests, furnaces, dispensers, etc. saved in the Infinity Matrix too?
Yes.

Can I use paintings, banners, custom player heads etc.?
As a rule of thumb, if something appears correctly also in the rotated instances, then it can be used.
Paintings and item frames sadly can’t be used for now. Banners and custom player heads work flawlessly.

Does the front door have to function, or can it be an open glass door?
It doesn't have to necessarily be a door! It's just a constraint that sets where the front of the building is, so that the engine makes your builds facing towards the roads correctly. More like a "the door should be here" indication, intend it as "people will access this area arriving from here". After that you can put the entrance you want, of even something else! For example, in the largest plot, you could even put two small buildings on the left and right side and a small plaza in the centre, that would work too!

Will my builds appear together in the final city?
The city will contain as many submissions as possible from participants, so there will be houses/buildings from different people close to each other, a city from the PMC community!

Any generated town will be different and potentially infinite, in some of them your builds will be closer, and in others more distanced, and every building integrated in the Infinity Matrix will have a defined probability to appear during the generation Process. Consider all that is being created here as a single neighbourhood!

Did Gheppio design the procedural Infinity engine by himself?
Yes.
