Staff have reported wildlife native to Mexico in the Islands Jungles on their trips to and from exhibits. Funnily enough, they don't interact much with the dinosaurs and tend to avoid paddock sectors. #Minecraft

And an updated panoramic view of the main plaza site #Minecraft #dinosaurs #worldpainter

White rock paints the ridges and cliffs of Tecuani, Coconut palms, kapok trees, and various others breathe life into it. Foliage and terrain paint are slowly nearing completion, and the island is exiting the worldpainter stage. #Minecraft #dinosaurs #worldpainter

Rivers and lakes are essential for natural ecosystems. Secondary terrain and water features have been finished. #Minecraft #dinosaurs #worldpainter

The "roughening" of the Island's mountains is now done, so now actual infrastructure planning and layouts can be created. This took a long time (since 1/19), but I think it was worth the time invested (for previous icky terrain, check replies) #worldpainter #minecraft #dinosaurs

Work has been slow on the island, but enjoy this skyline view of the future Paleo-Plaza, the crowning jewel on Isla Tecuani #Minecraft #dinosaurs

Here is an overview of more or less the current progress of Isla Tecuani, everything is subject to change of course. #Minecraft #Dinosaurs #Worldpainter

First images of the terrain on Isla Tecuani.

Progress update #2:

Primary terrain has been finished, quite proud of it and will post images in the replies later. Primary terrain refers to the larger scale terrain. Next up is stuff like water bodies, exhibit mountains, valleys, basic infrastructure, etc. The first complex hurdle is done.

Progress update #1: The worldpainter process had begun, and the Island size is finalized. I'm targeting a distance of about 4 miles and will work on the primary terrain tomorrow. Recording works fine on worldpainter so far, so I might actually record and upload progress #minecraft #dinosaurs

I’m like really into using modded minecraft to build & plan exhibits for dinosaurs / animals, my current project is Isla Tecuani. It’s a smaller island meant to exhibit creatures from the ediacaran to the pleistocene. It is like a passion project of mine lol.
