Minecraft - WoWProject - Stormwind City - Part 1 - Trade District

Attempting to recreate Stormwind in Minecraft as faithfully as MC allows. This is part 1 - Trade District.

All accessible houses in World of Warcraft have their interior reproduced. All houses that are not accessible in World of Warcraft but do have an entrance (sealed) in the game are accessible in Minecraft as user homes for people on the server.

Care has been taking on scale, reproduction of the wall exterior, decorations and lots more that might not be noticeable by just watching this video.

If you want to get involved in this project we could use an extra helping hand. Only apply if you are serious and able to contribute on the same level of detail as shown on this video. Contact us at admin@mediansoft.net.

The video is not in HD format and does show some artifacts and lightning issues. However this is just a work in progress. When the Stormwind project is complete a HD version will be posted covering whole SW.

Thanks for watching!

Is there any download for this masterpiece? :O

[WoWCraftProject]

@lmcake

No there is not atm, its also not finished yet. Part 2 is coming pretty soon though..

Correct me if I'm mistaken, but doesn't the road behind the Auction House (leading towards the Cathedral district) slope upwards? In this rendition it's the same level as the rest of the terrain.

@Osgray

We debated over it and ultimatly decided not to add elevations in basic infrastructure. Mostly because minecraft does not have slopes. Meaning you either need to place stairs who don't exist (and go up to fast) or use higher elevated blocks but then you can't "walk" no more and actually need to "jump" to sort of climb your way up.

There are already changes in height where approperiated and we will continue to judge case/case if it works out for other regions.

Not bad. You should have definatley used a texture pack though. The vid would be more appealing.

@Sythiis

Hey, tnx for the comment. However this is using a 64x64 texture pack. Trust me vanille Minecraft looks a lot ugglier :) (the default is 16x16 pixels).

from what I've seen a lot of stormwind minecraft builds come close but end up severely lacking in other areas. it's rather vexing since especially in the trade district I know there is some room for interpretation but you couldn't even try to build the angled entrance to the auction house you just put it into another building entirely?
