Hello, guys! Today is Sunday, May the 8th. We have a long weekend (from Saturday to Tuesday), so I decided to launch an update of "The Painter's Hometown".

1) the start date changed from 01 Feb 2020 to 16 Sept 2021
2) huge amount of new locations added
3) huge amount of new characters and skins added
4) some new items are given to player
5) more easter eggs added
6) the whole map is greened with trees and grass
7) some issues fixed

This map is based on my real hometown, most of the locations here are the important locations from my real life. I started working on this map on March the 13th, 2021. At first it was a group of small islands in the ocean, but during a year and 2 months the islands were united and became the single huge land. The town was built on this land and it's still being developed, new locations are being built. There are a lot of real-life locations from my hometown and a number of fictional locations. Most locations are listed on MapWriter map in the game world. i didn't build the whole hometown, because it's big and it would take 5-10 years to build. But the main locations are built on game map, so it's enough. On the map you can do anything you want. Have fun!

I warn you that this map contains a lot of mods, so you may need a 64-bit Java to play this map. I also recommend you to use Optifine.

When you download a map, you will open a .zip archive and see 4 folders: "customnpcs", "map", "mods", "resourcepacks". You MUST put "customnpcs" folder into your .minecraft directory, there are all necessary skins. In "map" folder you will see a folder which is named "hometownv02". Put "hometownv02" into your saves. Let's talk about "mods" folder. There are all NECESSARY mods, the map won't work without them. You must put "mods" folder into .minecraft directory. In "resourcepacks" folder you will find the map's resource pack. Textures in the map will be distorted without this resource pack. Put the "1.12.2 Default resource pack" into your "resourcepacks" folder and activate it when you will enter the game world.

This map is ONLY for 1.12.2. The needed version of 1.12.2-forge is 1.12.2-forge1.12.2-14.23.5.2847 or newer. You must download it by yourself if you don't have one. Don't say "plz update it to 1.13/1.14/1.15/1.16/1.17/1.18". I WON"T update it. I only make maps for 1.12.2 and no more. So if you want to play on this map, download 1.12.2-forge1.12.2-14.23.5.2847 (or newer) and enjoy the game.
