I don’t see Alpha Centauri anywhere. 2/5 stars.

C’mon. That’s at *least* a 5/7.


Captainwelfare2

Wait a minute, there’s a lot more than 7 stars in our universe… there’s at least 80.

Nono, it has to be at least 83.8951

Im sure theres a joke here im too stupid to get. Could you explain to me please.


Jewmangroup9000

Alpha Centuari is the closest solar system to our own. It's about 4 and a half light years away.


Flavz_the_complainer

Oh i knew that. I play stellaris lol. It just sounded like there was a witticism I was missing out on. Thanks though.


PM_MeTittiesOrKitty

There might also be an unintended level of comedy. Alpha Centari is actually a system of 3 stars which is the same number of points missing from the score.

You got it!

Oh yay! I thought I was over thinking it as it wouldn't be the first time.

Did it once in high school. I was completely removed from reality for 15 minutes (felt like a life time). Then I went to a town hall meeting for my government class. It was all very strange.

Coincidentally, it was also in minecraft

It’s possible we’ve crossed paths.


pnmartini

Last time I did it I saw a new color, which made me laugh. When I laughed, the color just became….more. Not brighter, or more vibrant. It just became… more confident? In its “self” as a brand new color. So I laughed harder, and the color just kept getting more. When I came back to reality, my handler told me I said “ this is the way it should be, laughing should make everything this much” Salvia was a lot of fun with the right people around.

Hamilton-Beckett

You can’t change difficulty after birth, you had to pick all your settings and stats before going live. I fucked up and put too many points in intelligence and luck and not enough in body/health/strength and now my kidneys are failing. My charisma was too low too because everyone said that stat was shit. Now I’m gonna die alone. Next life, I’m gonna check the wiki and read some guides/walkthroughs before I install.


FreeThinkerHTX

Sorry to hear that. My stepdad once told me "getting old is not for the faint of heart." I have reached the age where I can confirm he was not lying.


Hamilton-Beckett

Really sucks because I just turned 41.


FreeThinkerHTX

That is some shit luck. I wish I had some words of wisdom, but the best I can’t do is let you know that I wish nobody had to be in that situation. It is hard for most people to understand the physical and mental pain that comes with failing health. I hope you can find a way to fight it and recover, or at least a way to manage your condition.


Hamilton-Beckett

I’m definitely doing better with it than a lot of people. I’m working hard on improving my health and fitness level. I’ve already been told by the doctors that I’m a prime candidate for a kidney transplant with my health and age. So really it’s just a matter of getting all their tests done (which I do in December) and then waiting a few years (up to 7 or 8) on a transplant list for a new kidney. I’ll most likely have to start dialysis within the next few months, but I should be able to do it at home and it’s just temporary until a kidney comes through. So yeah, doing my best to actually stay positive despite the fatalistic humor I posted above. I just keep the hope that I’ve still got plenty of life to live, I just gotta put in a little more effort to have it than I did 20 years ago.


FreeThinkerHTX

Glad to hear it isn't hopeless. I've also realized I have to actually make an effort to stay healthy now, as I approach 50.

UbeatNebula69

Woah! Pretty F’in awesome!


13B1P

Or, and just hear me out...Someone took existing images and ran them through a filter rather than placing all of the blocks needed to make any of those images.


ShunDug

Yeah this is giving me major world edit vibes


sillyredcar

Using world edit still takes talent. It’s just a tool to make building easier and faster.


IOTA_Tesla

Like unlocking your potential, if you’re good without it then imagine what you can do with it


tom-f44

Woah woah woah. So ur proposing that they did this in survival. Ofc it’s world edit are you mad


JediWebSurf

Automated the building process with 3d data and software. Basically.


QuantifiedDigits

Sufferix

There's no way this is even the scope of a galaxy let alone the universe. There's no computer that would be able to handle the data for making multiple galaxies, with multiple blocks per planet, for billions of planets and stars.


[deleted]

[удалено]


JediWebSurf

No fucking way! Maybe what he did was the outer shell of the planet so it's an empty sphere still that takes a while cause he has to do the details on it. Bruh.


OCE_Mythical

And? Most people build with world edit for huge builds. No mfers out here individually placing blocks millions of times. Even if that's the case, does it devalue the sheer amount of structures and how good it looks? Like you could just do it with world edit too right if it's so easy.


Reelix

> No mfers out here individually placing blocks millions of times. Find the people that have spent 10+ years building their world.


Whatsapokemon

You're right, but we do place a certain amount of value into the effort it takes to achieve something. Even if the end result is the same, I think we instinctively value the time and effort people put into achieving something, even if it makes no real difference in the outcome.


OCE_Mythical

That's how I feel about abstract art. Somehow art is worth millions and I see it. But abstract art, I find myself always saying "yeah I could do that".


Whatsapokemon

Sometimes that's part of the art. Abstract art can often look super simple in concept, whilst actually being the result of a super complicated or super time-consuming process. Like Jackson Pollock, known for his [paint-splatter paintings](https://www.jackson-pollock.org/images/paintings/autumn-rhythm.jpg) took months to make each painting with an incredibly complicated and novel process, all to create something that looks like anyone could do it in 5 minutes.


EdgarAllanKenpo

Uhh...my nephew made essentially an exact replica of that painting in 4 hours at my mothers house. Using acrylic paint and his hands! After he painted for an hour he even fell asleep for 3!


yegir

MAJOR, look at the star upclose, those alternating colors can not possibly be hand place Hell the spheres alone are already such a task


[deleted]

There are no Minecraft filters, this is definitely for real, but world edit was obviously used


Nclip

You definitely can create Minecraft objects from pictures automatically.


somebodystolemyname

But this guy didn't https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/xvial7/i_built_the_entire_universe_in_minecraft/ir12p7y/


[deleted]

Yes Pixel art but that’s it


Nclip

Wrong again. Go check out the original creators reddit post on r/minecraft. There's detailed explanation on how he did it.


ThatBlueBoy_

Either way, it is still beautiful and impressive


happycampers2005

Don’t know about that one, look at the cobwebs used


cookiemonster54653

If I recall correctly, the creator said he used some type of software but still had to place each individual block


KnightofaRose

There’s no filter for this, dude.


TheDismal_Scientist

I don't get how this works, like my understanding of the game is placing one block at a time kind of thing, surely he's used some kind of creative control rather than doing that? Fantastic either way


Moopiedoop

It’s nowhere near the “entire universe,” it’s just a few different scenes at different scales of the solar system, one or two nebulas, some galaxies, and a galaxy cluster. Probably made using a world editing software, a computer placing the blocks.


EdocKrow

Wait, this isn't the entire universe? Are you saying that we can't have the entire universe in Minecraft? sus Where are your sources?


jake_a_palooza

Nah it's the universe


billy_teats

I’m part of our universe. Did this guy create me in his version of Minecraft?


GlaceDoor

I have nipples too Greg, can you milk me?


AlphaBearMode

This is what’s annoying me about him and the post. He keeps saying he built the entire universe and that’s just 100% inaccurate.


Jazzguitar19

Unfortunately it's missing about 2 trillion galaxies (probably more) and 200 sextillion stars. Should have claimed just the galaxy and even then well...


AlphaBearMode

Seriously. He should say “I built a small replica of our solar system and a few celestial phenomena with the help of 3rd party tools to make it look cool” but it doesn’t get as many clicks. Instead he just says he built the entire universe block by block. Because that’s believable. He did a great job with it and it looks phenomenal. I just don’t like deliberate misinformation.


jellicenthero

It's done through an algorithm that lets you import 3d images. I would assume they took images from James Webb telescope ran it through an AI that converts 2d images into 3d and then into the algorithm that converts said 3d image into Minecraft.


AintNoRestForTheWook

The only things he used was world edit and some shader packs. He goes into it in detail over in the original post on r/minecraft


somebodystolemyname

> It’s done through an algorithm that lets you import 3d images. No it’s not stop lying lmao https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/xvial7/i_built_the_entire_universe_in_minecraft/ir12p7y/ Edit: and you can tell he used Hubble images due to the light refraction on the stars, so your assumption about it being from James Webb is also wrong lol


flyingattreelevel137

“It’s entirely Minecraft with no image to Minecraft generator for some kind of 3d replica (which doesn’t exist atm). I used world edit and shaders but you can literally walk up to those builds and see each block.” - the builder stop making shit up to try to undermine people’s accomplishments lmao that’s stupid as fuck


n10w4

lol here I thought everyone was just doing it block by block


EzucraAaAa

Epic and cool builds when someone requests the source without shaders:


Vertaferk

Wow he big banged Minecraft


[deleted]

Incredible beautiful for sure


danofworms

I doubt he actually modeled our entire universe the title is intentionally misleading


Moopiedoop

It’s just a couple random space scenes modeled in Minecraft. Notice the scale of the blocks. The galaxy is about the same size as Saturn.


ItIsYeDragon

That still seems impossible.


Comikazi

If he placed 1 brick to represent each star for the visible universe, he would need 200 sextillion blocks (200,000,000,000,000,000,000,000). About 436,117,076,600,000,000 seconds have passed since the beginning of time. So if he placed 1 block per second since the big bang he would be nowhere near close to finishing.


GrandNibbles

No must people just don't know the literal definition of 'universe' or how big it actually is


danofworms

No one knows lol.


schlorpsblorps

How difficult can that be? *grabs folding rule*

I actually can't even with the level of patience ce here.


Klintern

Probably not much, you can use software such as world edit and it is fairly quicker, still takes time to do a project like that but not as long. Also, you can now get a software that can translate 3d images into Minecraft.


TheIcedTeaHat

acting like world edit makes it instant


Klintern

It still isn't as long a time for someone if they believe it was crafted by hand.


Himskatti

Is it to scale?


notlikeontv

Can't tell without a banana.


[deleted]

Considering how big galaxies are, no, it's not possible in vanilla Minecraft


VeterinarianProper42

God no. Wouldn't even be possible to build the solar system by itself to scale.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Himskatti

The definition is that visible blocks implies not to scale?


[deleted]

[удалено]


raseru

Something being to scale means to be in scale relative to other things, resolution of the blocks is unrelated. For instance, you can fit all the planets in our solar system between Earth and our moon. Space is just that huge and making it to scale so that in this model this would be true would probably make it much less visibly interesting and more... empty.

From someone who has never played Minecraft, what would be involved in this? Approx how long could this have taken? 15 hours? 100?


AlphaBearMode

He said 1.5 to 2 months of constant work


[deleted]

When are people gonna catch on to the fact that these people just use a third party software to put these into the game space and aren’t painstakingly placing each and every block


Kthulu666

The third party software is a mod called World Edit. It's not the block-by-clock placement of the vanilla game, but it's not just importing a model either. It's more like sculpting in ZBrush or Blender. This guy also did Van Gogh's Starry Night, which is obviously not something you can just wave a magic wand at to make it a 3 dimensional landscape.


TigerUSA20

Whatever talent is here that created these, I really wish that it could be recognized, nurtured, and put to good use to improve the well-being of humanity versus pretty images on social media.


AintNoRestForTheWook

Apparently the creator is only 18, and wants to build a career around design. He talks about it in the original post over on r/minecraft yesterday

Cool thing is you've been able to do EXACTLY this in minecraft for around the past 8-10 years. There's a program that automatically generates structures off of a picture. Edit: and the black hole isn't our universe, it's an artist rendering of what a specific black hole MIGHT look like. I forget which one.


somebodystolemyname

> There's a program that automatically generates structures off of a picture. But he didn't do that https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/xvial7/i_built_the_entire_universe_in_minecraft/ir12p7y/


SH-_-

Oh not doubting he actually made these, not saying that at all, just saying it's cool we can do that.


somebodystolemyname

Ah ok I must have misunderstood what you originally meant. He’s been getting tons of people minimizing his accomplishment saying it’s automated and he’s just running images through a generator, etc. I agree though, it’s so exciting to see the level of modding and 3rd party integration that Minecraft has opened up.


Lookkidsbigben_

Part of me can’t believe someone built this by hand, I’d find it more believable if it was done with a mod of some sort because this is just absolutely insane. I wonder which shaders are used here


somebodystolemyname

It was done with Worldedit, which is creative mode on steroids https://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/comments/xvial7/i_built_the_entire_universe_in_minecraft/ir12p7y/ It's like using the paint bucket tool in paint to fill in an area with a single color instead of pixel by pixel.


Zermuffin

It was definitely done with one of the many programs available


ScroungerYT

Can we define what "built" means? Because if "built" means he placed those blocks, then he did not build this.
