Overview

Advent Map 0 - #Daily Maps · 2K, Java, Bedrock, Download

Karolier is a small island... its 2km by 2km by McMeddon. It's an Island that is "shaped like a zero". Completely surrounded by Mountains and oversized beaches to explore. For the first time, rivers thrive through the lands, originating in the snow covered mountains where snow gather between rifts, slowly dripping further down the mountain and finding their way down to the sea as water. Clear shallow cliffs mark the islands edge. Between new mountains, new river systems you find new custom vegetation and stuff to explore. Make a journey around the island and make your way to new worlds. The Sea level is at 62 as the default Minecraft generation, which means.. if you take a boat, you will make a near seamless transition between reality and Minecraft.

Questions about Karolier

What is Karolier?

Karolier is a hand-made survival world of 2,560 × 2,560 blocks, made with WorldPainter, World Machine, Gaea, Axiom and WorldEdit, built for Minecraft Java 1.16.1. You download the world folder and play it like any other save, in singleplayer or on your own server.

How big is Karolier?

2,560 × 2,560 blocks, so about 7 million blocks of surface. Walking from one edge to the other takes roughly 10 minutes at normal walking speed. The terrain runs from Y 0 to Y 255.

Outside that area the world keeps generating normal vanilla Minecraft chunks, so you never hit a wall, you just leave the built part behind.

Which Minecraft version does Karolier need?

Karolier is built for Minecraft Java 1.16.1. Newer releases normally open it fine. Opening it in an older release is not supported: blocks and structures added after that version cannot load, and the world can be damaged by the attempt.

Bedrock players need a converted copy. See the Bedrock notes in the FAQ.

Which biomes are in Karolier?

9 in total. The land is mostly Plains (94.7%), Snowy Plains (5.3%) and Beach (0.0%), counted as shares of the land rather than of the whole map.

Water covers 77.0% of the map, and land 23.0%.

By volume this world's caves are Normal Caves (100.0%). The cave breakdown has the rest.

The full breakdown is further up this page, with every biome and its share.

Which structures are in Karolier?

5 of the 19 structure types the scan checks are confirmed present: surface (0/7), underground (3/6), ocean (2/4), portal structures (0/1) and settlements (0/1).

Not confirmed: Desert pyramids (not checked), Igloos (not checked), Jungle pyramids (not checked), Pillager outposts (not checked), Swamp huts (not checked) and Trail ruins (not checked). "Searched, not found" means the scan looked and came up empty; "not checked" means it has not been looked for yet.

The structure list above names every one of them.

Is Karolier ready to play in survival?

Yes. A scan of the world file confirms loot tables, structures and ores, so the survival loop runs from the first night: chests hold the game's real loot tables, mobs spawn as they do anywhere else, and you can mine, farm and build without adding anything. It plays in vanilla Minecraft, with no mods, no datapacks and no creative mode.

The scan did not see animals in this export. That means it did not find any, not that none can be found or bred here.

The world contents report at the bottom of this page holds the item-by-item detail.

Where do I download Karolier?

From the download link on Patreon, also on the button at the top of this page.

Also available: the PlanetMinecraft project page, which carries the release notes and the known issues for this particular build.

Can I look at Karolier before downloading it?

Yes. Open it in the 3D explorer and fly the real terrain in your browser, with the biomes, the caves and the marked structures. Nothing to install.

How do I install Karolier on Java Edition?

  1. Unpack the archive you downloaded from Patreon.
  2. Open your saves folder. On Windows press Win + R and enter %appdata%\.minecraft\saves. On macOS it is ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/saves, on Linux ~/.minecraft/saves.
  3. Move the unpacked folder in. It must be the folder that contains level.dat, not a folder wrapping it.
  4. Restart Minecraft on 1.16.1 or newer and pick the world in singleplayer.

Full install guide

Can I play it on Bedrock, or on a server?

Bedrock needs a converted .mcworld copy, and converted worlds carry their own quirks around spawn, chests and villagers.

For a server, drop the world folder in as the server's world and start it.
