Its a large file so please be patient, its worth the wait. This release is still a work in progress. I did find someone thats willing to help. He'll start with Icewind Dale and work south. I've started at Baldur's Gate and Im going to work north. We should have the Sword Coast completed in about a month.
Please let me know what you think!

Thanks! encouragement welcome, this is a pretty massive undertaking Laughing We all know how large Faerun is, just finishing the Sword Coast will be a mile stone!

Having seen some Minecraft in action, I have an appreciation of the scale we're talking about, too.

Cheers

the base of my idea is to have a setting to run campaign modules in. Events would still have to be pen and paper but the traveling and camping etc. could be in game.
 
 oh.. and Minecraft does have a d20 plugin as well as dragons.. but they arn't D&D dragonsTongue Out

I really like the dock view. The way things get hazy in the distance is pretty cool.

I like the castles too. I'm not too familiar with minecraft, but I can say I like the scale of everything. It all seems so huge.

Only know of Minecraft because of Reddit.  I've never played it, but that being said, this looks like it would take forever.

Looks awesome!

Ok is there an official form or something, because this needs to be labled AWESOME, in the true sense of being something which invokes awe.

Thanks for the kind words. I've been working on this for about 2 months. Phase 1 (Sword Coast) will probably take me about 6 months to finish without help. All of Faerun?... um... a lon, long time.  But thats okay. Im dedicated to the project.
