Yeah I am late, I know, but hey I just did not want to release these Times without the two brand new videos I recorded just for you! So I hope the longer wait was worth it, now have a nice read and watch!
@q220 has just updated the download links for the Gondor, Eriador, Lothlórien and Rohan pack! The new textures are listed below. For all those who switch the RP's manually: Make sure you download yourself the newest version. For everyone else using the automic RP feature: The update will happen automatically.
@kisos: The Red Cobblestone texture is now placed on the Redstone Ore and not the Red Sandstone. Make sure to adjust Aelhroth!
@Tyranystrasz: Your two new stone variants are located on Andesite and Red Sand! Make sure the river delta you created gets adjusted accordingly.
@jacenpeter: Your rubble texture is located on Granite! Feel free to use it in your mountains now!
@Ryiw: The Hobbit door textures are now in the pack! Feel free to upgrade our Bagend with them!

Project Progress
Andrast (In Progress) - Lead: @jacenpeter
No progress this week.
Lamedon (In Progress) - Lead: @Eriol_Eandur
Progress has gone from 0-60mph in just a brief span of a week. The terrain for the town of Tumladen is complete and the project team is currently working to prepare all the necessary layouts and planning before opening jobs for the community which should be expected somewhat soon. Otherwise, voxel work continues on the nearby mountain ranges and will eventually move to the valley around the Celos river

[Public Project] Fennas Drúnin (In Progress) - Lead: @thomasd16
The last few houses have been built, and also a more sinister item: A triple-gallows... Furthermore upon many a request from the Designers, they tweaked the proportions of the town's wall by making it a bit thinner.
Plugin DevelopmentTerraformed the southern foothills/plains area just because I really wanted to get some quick, but seemingly large amount of progress in this week and that was the place to do it. Once that gets done I will either move to Ras Morthil and shape that area or continue working with the fjords.

Anfalas (In Progress) - Lead: @kisos- Jacenpeter
The pain train continues in Anfalas with farms and terrain getting slapped into the "Done" column of my spreadsheet. @Daddlio 's farm is done courtesy of @Darki190. And @Wroxxite has finished his village, but will continue working in Anfalas on the salt flats. I knocked out a massive amount of terrain, finishing up the mountains and the rivers in the northern portion of Anfalas. Im pretty sure I voxeled for over 24 hours this weekend combined. Me and @Darki190 also ran a big road job, but there are still more roads to do. @NicTheFifth has started he elvish ruins. Me and @Darki190 are totally locked in to finish Anfalas within 2 weeks at this point.

I exported the world machine map into minecraft, it's just stone and grass and world machine editing it's just basic but I like the result, some screenshots here:

Minigames Plugin (Small fixes in progress) - Dev: @Eriol_EandurThe new New Player World is currently being tested on the dev server, here's how it currently looks:
A plugin to easily run various minigames like Hide and Seek, Races and Quizzes.
I am currently rereading the Hobbit to gain some more questions in that category. Other than that the plugin is already working like a charm, take away the graphical bugs there still are with special characters...
MCME-Architect (Testing in progress) - Dev: @Eriol_EandurI am currently rereading the Hobbit to gain some more questions in that category. Other than that the plugin is already working like a charm, take away the graphical bugs there still are with special characters...
MCME-Architect is an assortment of small plugins of all kinds that make building on MCME easier and more enjoyable.
I can bring you, especially to the Artists though, the bright news of that most likely along with the release of the Architect plugin some changes will come regarding the block restrictions that we currently have. You hopefully will have unrestricted access to many of the currently locked blocks and hopefully will not have to rely on Designers voxelling in stuff any more.
