Depsite the lack of updates, this project is still being worked on as of February 2026. Stay tuned for updates!

This aims to be a full recreation of Hill Valley from the Back to the Future movie trilogy... with working time travel!

I plan to have every single area you see in the movies appear in this map, although please remember that right now the map is in early development, and only Courthouse Square is present for all timelines.

Currently, it has recreations of 1885, 1955, 1985, and 2015, all of which you can visit using the Portable Flux Capacitor found in your final hotbar slot.

My main focus with this map is accuracy. I've watched the movies carefully, watching the direction characters walk to end up somewhere else to figure out where certain places are located, and tried to make everything relatively size accurate.
However, there are two cases where accuracy is less important to me; the first is when I'm recreating an area, landmark or building from a non-cannon source, such as the comics, 90s animated TV series, or the TellTale video game. The second is if there is an inconsistency between timelines for something that should be consistent. The biggest example of this is the hill behind the clocktower. In the movies, this is the same exact hill in all timelines besides 1885, where the real-world set is built at a different location, and the hill is clearly a different hill.

Please note that everything is a work-in-progress, so somethings may be innaccurate such as certain places on the map appearing in the wrong time periods, or some places down right missing.

Regarding ad links:
I really appreciate if you can use the main download button which includes ads as it helps me out a lot and allows me to monetise my hobby! The ad pages can sometimes look scary, but as long as you click nothing but the [​Skip ad] button when it appears, you will be fine!

If you are having trouble with the ad page however, then scroll down to the changelogs and click the download button for the latest version ad free.

Thank you :)

Hey there, I know you've used a dimensions data pack to create each timeline, but what specific one have you used? Could I get a link to it as well please?

It's a data pack I made myself for the project. I don't know of any template packs but it's relatively easy if you use the wiki and tools like Misode. :)

maybe. There are a lot of inconsistencies between timelines atm so I want to make sure they're more consistent before I update
