So yeah… apparently making whirlpools somehow got me back into maths again

I’ve been messing around with functions, curves and all that kind of stuff to get some of these shapes working properly, and after a lot of testing I’ve finally ended up with a bunch of whirlpools that I’m actually really happy with

There are quite a lot of them now, with different shapes, depths and styles, so I think the actual creation part is going pretty well

Now I mostly need to sort everything out into a proper bundle, paint them in a few different variants, clean things up a bit, and then I should be able to release it

Still some work to do, but it’s definitely getting there

Hey everyone!

This is actually my first wall post. I never really knew what to post here, but I just discovered the feature, so I thought I might use it from time to time when I have something to share

For a first post, I mostly wanted to say thank you

We’re now over 130 followers, with more than 37,000 views, 5,000 downloads, 200+ diamonds and favorites, and so many kind comments. Seeing people genuinely enjoy my maps and support what I create means a lot to me

I originally started building because I wanted to help a Minecraft community I was part of, and we simply didn’t have a builder. So I became one by default... and my first builds were honestly pretty terrible

I kept going though, learned little by little, and while I definitely wouldn’t call myself an amazing builder today, I’m happy with how much I’ve improved and even happier that some people enjoy what I make

I also recently started experimenting with paid maps, and I know that can be a bit controversial in a game built so much around sharing

So for most of my future projects, I’m thinking of doing something like this: release the first version for free and keep it available for a while. Then, months or even a year later, if I decide to come back to the project, I’ll make a proper full rework, fixing reported issues, improving everything I can, adding new content and using everything I’ve learned since the original release. That upgraded version may then become paid for people who want the improved map and also want to support my work

Anyway, that’s it for my first post

Whether there were 130 people following my work or just one person enjoying a map I made, I’d already be happy. So seeing this much support genuinely means a lot

Thank you all ❤️

Finally, the last of my color jam series has been completed! Many wonderful submissions, and three who came out on top!

In 1st place, we have Agatha with her skin, Keeper of the dark!
In 2nd place, we have ArchWindfall with their skin, Eye Can't Hear You!
In 3rd place, we have MrPacMan101 with his skin, 8 ball!

Thank you all so much yet again for participating, and congratulations to our winners! I didn't expect any of these colorful jams to get much attention, so I am grateful to all who took the time to join and submit such wonderful skins. I am unsure what is next for me making jams. There are no upcoming ones since this is the final of this series. I likely will have an indefinite break from jams, but thank you all again for joining this series. You all have a good night and/or day wherever you are!

Oh wow, time flew! I wasn't paying much attention to this, honestly, whoops! One day left before voting!

Remember that you are supposed to use only purples. You will be likely to have lower ratings if you add any other colors. I will say, the skins look nice, however, the goal of the jam is only purple. Monochromatic, but with some allowed hue shifts to be slightly pink or blue. You are allowed to correct any colors to something else that fits the theme before judging begins. No changes are allowed or enabled in this jam to edit afterwards

Trophies are finished, having gotten ideas from LadyKittenton. Thank you, m'lady.
I also thought of titles for the placements. Third place is The Crusader, second place is Sin Collector, and first place is The Crown Bearer. Maybe could have the participants be Followers

I need ideas for the second and third place. I was thinking the crown would be participant buuut, then that means everyone "bears the crown", which only first place makes sense to.

Happy Friday, PMC!

We've revamped our Site Rules with new sections focused on Social Interactions and Moderation— to help make the platform more welcoming and transparent for everyone.


✅ What’s new?

• Our content rules remain the same, but the Social section is all about outlining what’s already been happening naturally but wasn't documented! This is to help newcomers understand how to engage positively and give everyone a clearer reference point. Ideally, if it helps prevent even small misunderstandings or frustrations, it's a win.
  
• The Moderation section provides some insight into our responsibilities and actions. It's one small step towards offering transparency so you know how we keep the community fun, safe, and respectful. We're working on a larger update to this end.
  

We’re also compiling FAQs to make your PMC experience even smoother for both new members and exploring features of our platform! You can help us out by posting in this forum. Just prepend your thread title with “FAQ:” and—bonus points!—if you can provide the answers in your thread. Every contribution helps the community grow stronger and helps us understand what needs to be answered!

Let’s keep building an awesome community together.

Member interviews are officially back! Peep our interview with YokaiS and learn a bit about their modeling, animation, robotics, data packing and inspirations!
