Minetest Middle-Earth Terrain Map

[DalmeGNU]

Hi!

I have downloaded this Minecraft Middle-Earth Terrain Map http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/massive-middle-earth-map/ and I tried to convert it to a Minetest Map using MCImport but the result was a bad map with only water.

Anyone knows how to convert it?

I have converted a lot of maps using MCImport and some maps don't work like this.

You're probably spawning in the wrong location.

Try flying around and finding where the buildings are.

This is a huge map!. I'm converting it myself and will let you know where to teleport to.

When I converts a map using MCImport I use minetest-mapper to make a png map of the world.

Thanks.

I teleported to places like -10000 10 10000, -10000 10 -10000 and found land. Explore from there... the place is huge!

How long did it take to convert the map for you?

About two weeks. I had converted it using a non-fast server, but it has about 9 000 000 of blocks.

Wow!

I'm at ~2 million after a day myself, had to restart it XD

Cool! Could this be included in the Lott game(or has something like this been done already (From what I saw the different regions are just random biomes(Please correct me if I am wrong), not a proper map))? Just an idea.(I am sorry to admit that it was inspired by MC.:'( ).

The map is 24km by 24km, and it's almost 2.7GB on disk.

It takes my system about 4 days to convert, and I had to restart once to fix a conversion gap in mcimport.

License wise I didn't see any problems, it appears there are no restrictions on the map itself.

sofar, may I ask where you see, that there are no restrictions on the map?

If you follow the link back to the original posted location, there are no restrictions posted anywhere, and I have no reason to believe that the person who posted is isn't the actual creator, as he's clearly commenting on requests and answers in the comment thread below. He also states "available for download to the public" without any futher restrictions.

So, I conclude he has released it in the Public Domain. I'd credit him for it myself, but other than that I think this is redistributiable content.

Thanks for your answer, sofar.
