Greetings, fellow citizens! Welcome to Gotham City!

This map has (and still is) been painstakingly recreated to the exact specifications of the official map of Gotham City released by DC Comics. Currently, I am in the process of building up the narrows in all of its old, rundown glory, and will move on, island by island, until this is fit for release. My plans include using this map on a fully modded public server, allowing all to see the great work done here, and live a life in one of the most loved fictional cities ever created (or recreated). As areas are worked on, I will be adding to this list the progression of the overall locations, as well as pieces of trivia and in-universe lore about the mysterious city and its inhabitants. This map will be available as part of the mod pack once the map is finished. I am currently building this in MC 1.7.10, (yes, 1.7.10) as a few mods on the list are only available in this version. Follow myself and this project for updates to the build and news about the eventual server and how it will be run.
Thanks!
~~John

=============CUSTOM MOD PACK=============
This mod pack was originally created for my friends and
I to use in a private setting, but the idea of one day
having a public server for my work to be seen has grown
enticing over time. For access to the mod pack, you will
need to use Technic Mod Loader, allocating at least 4 GB
of RAM in order to run this pack at all. Yes, it's quite large
and the load times are fun as always.

==========================================


===============JOIN THE TEAM==============
Thank you for being interested in joining myself and the build team here at Project Gotham City! As much as we want as many builders as we can get, we do want the map to reflect a certain quality and skill level that can best serve the map and community as a whole. Below are a set of instructions that, if followed EXACTLY, will put YOU in the running to join the team!

SUBMISSION STEPS:

1.) Record* yourself building a building in one of these styles:**
- Art Deco (skyscrapers, office towers, and high-scale department stores.)
- Neo-Gothic (churches/cathedrals, old institutions, public works buildings and structures.)
- Neoclassicism (government and municipal buildings such as a town hall, a courthouse, etc.)
- Modernist, specifically late-40's to 60's (private test sites, scientific laboratories, mid-range suburb homes.)
- Art Nouveau (high-scale townhouses, older upscale suburban neighborhoods, small manor houses.)
- Beaux Arts (mid-size mansions; go for the look and feel of young, uptown socialites of high society.)
- Baroque/Rococo (old money families. large, grandiose mansions from centuries past.)
- Craftsman Architecture (middle- and upper-middle-class suburban neighborhoods.)

*I suggest using OBS to record the video. It's easy and simple to set up. the editing software I suggest, unless you want to spend money on/already have Vegas or Premiere would be DaVinci Resolve for its robust and simple to use toolkit.

**If you don't recognize the style, look it up on google and build one of those. Include interiors in your builds.

2.) Upload your video to YouTube titled: Project Gotham City Application - [​YOUR NAME HERE]
In the video, be sure to timelapse the build process so as to shorten the video time.
Give a full building tour with descriptions of the architectural style you chose, the layout of the rooms, and the design you went for with the interiors. Use furniture from MrCrayfish's and Decocraft as provided in the modpack under the tools section of this post.

3.) Email me the video submission
Email the submission to projectgothamcity@gmail.com.
The submission must, at a minimum, include the following:
- Subject: Project Gotham City Application - [​YOUR MINECRAFT USERNAME]
- Body: Hello, JohnDoe297. I'm submitting my application to join the build team for Project Gotham City. Here is the link for the video: [​INSERT LINK HERE] and I am applying to work on the [​INSERT ISLAND OR TYPE OF BUILDING YOU WANT TO WORK ON HERE] type of building. My Discord username is [​INSERT DISCORD USERNAME WITH 4 DIGIT NUMBER HERE].

4.) Wait for a response
While you wait, check back on the PMC page for any future updates regarding the project, the group size, and the next major worksite for the map!

5a.) You've been chosen! Congrats!
If you have been chosen, then congratulations, you are now part of the Project Gotham City team! You will be emailed back with information about joining the Discord server, the minecraft server IP, server rules, and what your job(s) will be while working on the server as well as the time expected of you. Welcome to the team!

5b.) You haven't been chosen. Oof.
You haven't been chosen. Sorry. You will be emailed back with a message explaining why you specifically weren't chosen. BUT DON'T LOSE HOPE! If the reason is along the lines of too many people in a category, submit another application with another build style!

TOOLS:
OBS: https://www.obsproject.com
DaVinci Resolve: https://www.blackmagicdesign.com/products/davinciresolve/
Modpack: https://www.technicpack.net/modpack/pixelated-legends-v10.962448

GOOD LUCK! I CAN'T WAIT TO SEE EVERYONE'S PROJECTS! THE BEST WILL BE FEATURED AS UPDATE POSTS TO THE PROJECT! THIS TEAM NEEDS YOU!!

PROJECT UPDATE #3 (09/07/2023) : by JohnDoe297 09/07/2023 4:23:55 pmSep 7th, 2023

PROJECT UPDATE #3 (09/07/2023)
Hello There. Long time, no update.
I've been quite busy over the last 3 years, but the progress has simultaneously slowed to a certain degree. Within this time, I've completed:


-
Arkham Island
--> Built an entire separate island structure to house each building of the Arkham complex.
--> Taking inspiration (but not direct translation) from the Arkham games series, there are a variety of buildings that fit a variety of use cases, and the island is largely autonomous in its functionality.
--> The singular access point to & from Arkham Island by road is attached to The Narrows/Park Row, situated directly adjacent to the newer Arkham Home for the Mentally Ill, which serves a separate purpose than Arkham Asylum: Home for the Criminally Insane.



- South Channel Island
--> Road layout for South Channel Island
--> Southern tip of South Channel Island
--> 15% of Gotham State University facilities constructed in the northern quadrant of the island.



- Wayne Manor
--> Minor remodeling of Wayne Manor, mostly the roof.

On the modpack side, I've utilized Bibliocraft's custom painting folders to add in a variety of fonts for letters, numbers, objects and signs to further add a sense of realism and a handcrafted feel to the world. These will continue to be updated as time changes, and will be added to the modpack for public use.

THE CURRENT ITERATION OF THE INCOMPLETE MAP IS AVAILABLE WITH THE MODPACK INSTALLATION FOR PUBLIC TESTING: DOWNLOAD HERE
Updated pictures to come within the next week as I have time to jump into the map and take them. Certain buildings will be pictured that are not currently available in the map download.

Until I see you next, please enjoy the currently available content. Still looking for contributors if anyone is interested! The instructions for submissions are included in the project description.

~~John

Just saw this and I wanted to do this as well. I always wanted to have Gotham City as an open world sandbox, without being Batman. If you need any help, despite you saying otherwise, hit me up and I'll do my best. Thanks.
