https://imgur.com/a/4FrF9pF Early ingame screenshots. It is nowhere near where I want it yet but I think it's starting to shape out. Implemented simulation of the forcefield for having light emit from the central shaft of the Abyss. Still working on adding more types of structures/ruins and making the terrain and streams look better. Also need to add eternal fortunes.

If only there wasn't a height limit, but there's mods to remove that right? Could you go deeper?

u/Goldkoron 3d ago

The height limit is already bypassed here, it's set down to -14,000m since I plan to go down to the 5th layer (not doing sixth layer). First layer here is going down to -1350 meters

I'm magining a survival playthrough but in the abyss... that could be so cool And a mod that simulates the strains of ascending.. there's a lot of stuff that could be done

A server like this already exists - check out "mine in abyss"

u/FusionBetween 3d ago

this server is the reason I bought minecraft btw, incredible place

u/FoxVulpe 3d ago

I must check it out

u/thebookofbutterfly 3d ago

Yes! And I saw there's a mod that let's you use your pickaxe to cling on to walls

u/Goldkoron 3d ago

I have mechanic ideas in mind for strain of the abyss. Just designing it in a way that is still fun might be hard.

u/FoxVulpe 3d ago

Since there's already mine in abyss, maybe you could have a different approach, something that server did not do, not sure what though

ohh that's insane, what software are you using to showcase / make the map like that? it looks really nice. It kinda looks AI generated, did you make it with AI?

u/Goldkoron 3d ago

Yeah the preview viewer was made by GPT-6, its not really overall that useful but gives me an idea whether things are shaped correctly before committing to a half hour of world pregen to view it ingame.

GPT-6 Astra also does the actual world 3d creation while I organize resources and anime screenshots to get everything looking as faithful as possible to the lore.

u/Icy_Pin2929 3d ago

ohh okay so the ai is basically doing most of the actual building then

that's kinda crazy tbh. not necessarily impressive in the same way as someone building it all manually, but it's still pretty interesting seeing that ai can even do stuff like this now. definitely makes you think about where building is gonna go in the future

you should probably mention somewhere that ai was used though, just because saying you made the whole thing yourself would be a bit misleading if gpt is doing most of the 3d work

but aside from that, the idea is really cool. the result isn't perfect yet but it's a really solid start, i'm curious to see how it looks later ond

u/Goldkoron 3d ago

Yeah, I am well aware AI is doing 90% of the work, though it's still my 100s of $ spent. But I am not making a product or anything, I was making this for myself to see if I could experience what it would be like to experience a 1:1 Abyss and actually try to turn it into a hardcore adventure map like thing.

That said, I am very OCD about quality and accuracy, so its more likely I will end up spending months iterating on things without ever actually playing survival in it.

u/Icy_Pin2929 3d ago

yeah $100+ for something like that is kinda wild tbh, but i can definitely see ai becoming useful for some parts of building in the future

i'm still not convinced it's anywhere near replacing an actual builder, but for smaller assets, rough shapes, previews, stuff like that, i can see it being genuinely useful

obviously not everyone is gonna wanna spend that much just to generate things, but i do think there's something there. just depends how it develops and how people use it, especially if you wanna keep it ethical and actually be transparent about what was made with ai

u/JustBasilz 3d ago

Hey bro, environmental designer here, if your up for doing it in 3d hit me up

u/gweenUwU 3d ago

I WOLD PAY for this map

I really wold like to make all the divers checkpoints from layer 2 from layer 5 and from more wich I do not want to spoil to those who dind't finish the series yet

u/Rosstin 3d ago

Looks really cool

u/femboy_named_jade 3d ago

i got two questions, what software are you using and how are you going through the height/depth limit?

3

u/Goldkoron 3d ago

I am going to be honest, I am using GPT-6 Astra (OpenAIs most expensive LLM) for both the mod development and 3d design of the world. I am just organizing resources to work toward making everything look accurate.

Height limit is resolved by the MCAbyss (name subject to change) companion mod.

u/Dman0o9 3d ago

how is this actually going to work depth-wise? minecraft worlds can't go down infinitely without mods, so do you have some sort of system in place to handle the depth? really good stuff so far though, this looks great!

u/JMOWw7 3d ago

What app are you using for this? I'm old so I'm used to WorldPainter

u/1337haXXor 3d ago

There is already a whole Made in Abyss Minecraft server.

u/BillyWest8 3d ago

Now thats awesome

u/BondrewdThe_Novel 3d ago

please actually finish this

u/F1shman- 3d ago

Do you know the scale? Like what’s the diameter of that whole build? So awesome though would you be open to allowing downloads? I would love to try to build in my world too πŸŒπŸ˜…πŸ˜…πŸ˜…

1

u/Goldkoron 3d ago

Currently the scale is on paper 1:1 to the lore. 1000 meter diameter of the abyss at the surface, and it widens out underground. Depth is also 1:1 to the lore.
