Now some of you may have noticed already that WrighTech Industries blog (the Jurassic World/Jurassic Park series development blog I created that ran alongside tis blog and the Jurassic World YouTube series) has been deleted. This is because my channel and all other media related to HallowsWright95 is or will be, undergoing graphical and content re-vamps. Starting with my Tumblr, this blog will stay and receive regular updates on video schedules, some of my Minecraft builds, quick mod spotlights, map spotlights, channel spotlights, series spotlights and self promotion.

Joining this blog will be another blog created by myself, Dunswell Zoo. Dunswell Zoo has become one of, if not, my flagship projects. The first video will be published THIS YEAR!! Joining it will be a mini series and some mod reviews which start NEXT MONTH!!!

All the best and much more to come over the rest of the year,

Treetop Gazers V2.0 - Preview

Hello guys HallowsWright95 here back with the first build of 2016 (or a preview at least anyway). Welcome to Treetop Gazers

Treetop Gazers is a state of the art attraction new for Jurassic World. The attraction was in conceptual phase just before the Isla Nublar Incident of 2015. Here I intend to create a sprawling exhibit that showcases the mighty sauropods in all their glory. Take the walkway and browse at the many dinosaurs on display, Treetop Gazers will have 4 species on display upon opening. Apatosaurus and Brachiosaurus will be on display in their own areas of the attraction. Apatosaur Grove, Brachiosaur Bridge, Camarasaur Creek and Diplodocus Springs will all be ready for visitors when the park opens with Camarasaurus and Diplodocus added shortly after along with the creation of new areas within the attraction for other species of sauropod. Don’t want to walk the entire length and breadth of Treetop Gazers? Not a problem, opening soon are jeep tours that take you through the vast area that is Treetop Gazers although please not seats are limited and tours are timed. Treetop Gazers, coming soon to Jurassic World

The Dilemma ...

Hello there guys, HallowsWright95 here.

I have now 100% completely finished landscaping my Isla Nublar map and have fully explored every block from north to south and east to west. The problem is that the map is TOO BIG. I knew the map was bigger than 1:1 scale but I didn’t realise how much bigger that 1:1 it actually was today. I don’t have the time or effort to create a new map from scratch but I have heard word that there is a 1:1 scale Jurassic World map coming out very soon so I am keeping my eye open for that and I may very well end up using that map.

This means many things:

1) My series will not start until the 1:1 scale map is released or I will start my series on the ridiculously huge map I have created myself then stop when the new map is released and move over.

2) The series may not start at all. I really really really want to do a Jurassic World series but at the moment I am so busy with university that I barely have time to work on my Jurassic World builds and map. With the constant map problems I keep having (too large etc) I have no effort or energy left to create a new map but about 30% smaller. I have other projects lined up and it might mean that I shelve Jurassic World until a later date.

3) I may take a hiatus. I have spent a good 60% of my spare time in 2015 preparing this map and project ready for launch in early 2016 (30% on University work and 10% on Socialising). Now that it is December I find myself with only 3 main options, start the series anyway and go from there, start another project and come back to Jurassic World or take a hiatus.

Comments on this would be appreciated, after all I do it for you guys :)

Wishing you the best. Merry Christmas.

It has been a while ...

Howdy guys, HallowsWright95 here. Sorry I haven’t posted in a while but I’ve busy with a fair few things but fear not I am back at a more regular posting rate until mid December. Firstly I will update you on the points I mentioned in the previous post and I’ll inform you of some exciting new things too. So without further ado lets get straight into it.

Updates

1) My custom PC has arrived and works perfectly. My Isla Nublar map is 83% complete as far as landscaping and terraforming is concerned. The map will be ready for when my series starts in January/February next year and hopefully I’ll have a few more enclosures and exhibits set up by then too so we have a good place to start the series.

2) I still intend to run the first series for atleast 50 episodes but the Jurassic World project as a whole will run on much longer than that. My channel trailer, which will be released around the same time as the christmas trailer, will show off some of my other projects I plan to do in-between Jurassicraft updates and other mod updates including my second series although you won’t know what exactly the second series will be as all the projects I am doing/plan to do will be in the channel trailer.

3) Nothing new to report here really. The Pachy Arena lighting issue has been fixed and a maintenance alley that leads into the arena has been added and is ready to accept its residents when they are added to the mod. The Petting Zoo has been expanded with more banners and behind the scenes areas for staff and dinosaurs. The overall sea bed still needs lowering but I shall leave this until last as I want the island to sit right before lowering the sea bed. I am still working on movie locations, The Gallimimus Log, The Indominus Ambush and The Brachiosaur Lake to name but a few. So in retrospective there is intact something new to report here.

4) I still only plan to add the Dodo and the Leptictidium to my Jurassic World however I can confirm that I plan to add as many of the pterosaurs and marine creatures as possible. As you are reading this post Kronosaurus and Elasmosaurus have already been allocated an exhibit to live in and a Tylosaurus exhibit is currently in conceptual phase.

5) I still have my DeviantArt, it now has more things so please go check it out at the following link: http://hallowswright95.deviantart.com

6) Again I still have my YouTube, please go check it out over at: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCA0-GGwmJ2YA7iwrT49Y6eg

That’s it for updates but now lets get on to new features and announcements:

1) I have decided that the series will be part let’s build and part role-play. If you look at Smithy MC’s series and also at Seri! Pixel Biologist!’s series it will be a combination of both of those. I have tested it and I’m positive it will work to the desired effect.

2) Smithy MC has just moved onto the Jurassicraft Isla Nublar map. Unfortunately the Pachy Arena I built that I allowed Smithy MC to use is too big and ultimately Smithy has rightfully decide to move my arena elsewhere on the island and use it for another creature or 2. Smithy has allowed me to choose 2 creatures for the arena however I am yet to give him my choice. This is because I have some ideas about how he can use my arena for his own purposes and that I have updated the arena solving the lighting issue so stay tuned to this blog, my twitter, Smithy’s twitter and Smithy’s YouTube channel for any updates on the movement of the build. Smithy will also be building his own Pachy Arena to replace the one I built.

3) I have removed the Securitycraft mod for now until the 1.8 version is stabilised enough for me to consider re adding it again.

Well that’s all for now folks, thank you for watching my videos and reading my blog. Stay tuned to this blog and my other blog (WrighTech Industries) as you’ll hear about the latest builds in these locations first. Additionally I would find it super cool if you could al go check out my DeviantArt as this is where I will be uploading Species Spotlights, Dino pics and some other goodies occasionally.

Bye for now,

Fancy seeing you here

Hello guys HallowsWright95 here with the latest.

Those of you that follow my Twitter and/or subscribe to my YouTube channel will know that over the past few days I have been extremely busy with videos and planning for my series. Finally I have found the time to spare to write a blog post bringing you all the latest juicy news about my Jurassic World project.

1) My custom PC is currently being built and will be on its way to me shortly. The minute it arrives I will be uploading my Isla Nublar project into WorldPainter on there and I will crack on with landscaping and terraforming Isla Nublar so that by the time my series starts we will be able to build loads of new attractions and add loads of new dinosaurs, marine creatures and pterosaurs to the exhibits and the island.

2) Whilst on the topic of my series I currently plan to run the first series for 50 episodes. Whilst I would love to do a continuously running series like Smithy MC who is fast approaching 200 episodes, my schedule (university and other stuff) simply won’t allow it but there is a silver lining to this. I will be starting a second YouTube series to run alongside series 2 of Jurassic World but what this second series is will remain a mystery ... for now.

3) I have been working on my map. The Petting Zoo is 90% complete including decorations and tweaks. The Pachy Arena is 99% complete (just tidying the last of the lighting issues up). T-Rex Kingdom is 100% complete. The East Dock is 90% complete, the sea bed needs lowering and the left beach needs tuning. Plus many, many more builds and special areas (The log area in Gallimimus Valley and the Indominus Jungle Ambush to name just 2 of the special areas).

4) Whilst Jurassicraft adds LOADS of new dinosaurs, pterosaurs, sea creatures and other animals both extinct and non-extinct I am not going to be adding all of them. For example Titanboa, Hyaenadon and Andrewsuchus have been announced to be aded to the mod however I will not be adding them into my world. In fact the only 2 non-dinosauric creatures I intend to add to my world are Leptictidium and Dodo. So when my series is released please don’t request any creatures as I already have plans but feel free to suggest names for dinos :D

5) I now have a DeviantArt, go check it out here: http://hallowswright95.deviantart.com

6) Please check out my YouTube channel here:

Teaser Schedule revealing release dates for teasers and trailers for my Minecraft Jurassic World project.

[hallowswright95minecraftbui-blog]

Update, Update, Update

Howdy guys, HallowsWright95 here.

Today I shall be sharing with you my latest plans for my Jurassic World Minecraft Map.

1) I have very recently got Jurassic World on Blu ray and noticed that the Raptor Training paddock is in fact a septagon/heptagon and not a hexagon and as such I have altered my build to reflect this. The would be 8th side extends out into a rectangle allowing for more space for the velociraptors to live in.

2) My map is almost back up and running, I am getting a custom pc delivered shortly that has as much RAM as I can afford. As far as landscaping goes I know what I’m doing, with what and where. I do still have a lot of construction to do particularly with the Aviary and Main Street area (i.e.: Innovation Center) but if this isn’t finished before I start my series then that won’t necessarily be a problem as I can do a video about the construction of this and more.

3) I am still posting what I can when I can on both this blog and the WrighTech Industries blog alongside my new channel art and releasing teasers and such.

That’s all for now folks. Thanks for reading and please stay tuned.

What I’m doing

Hello guys, HallowsWright95 here.

I figured I should let you guys know what I’m currently doing as far as my Jurassic World project is concerned, without further ado lets begin.

1) I am currently completing the Gentle Giants Petting Zoo. All the banners will be up and in place accompanied by the dinosaurs contained within the enclosures. I am going to be landscaping each enclosure to ensure there are trees and grass but also open areas where guests have a prime opportunity to take photographs.

2) As well as the Petting Zoo I am also working on Main Street. I am furnishing buildings and adding the trees and other displays that line the street. Additionally I am also adding the street lamps and other decorative features (although unfortunately not the Spinosaurus).

3) I am also designing, both on paper and in Minecraft, 6 new exhibits to add to the project including Hadrosaur Cove, The Jurassic Jungle, Paleo Park and Dilophosaur Grove.

4) Due to the over scaling of my Isla Nublar map I am currently designing a smaller 1:1 scale map but upon testing the map by importing buildings I discovered that the smaller landscape meant that several buildings looked out of place (i.e.: The angle of the T-Rex Kingdom doesn’t fit the hillside) so for now I am sticking to my larger than real life map but I am unable to make more mountains, forests and plains etc because my iMac is playing up again and won’t let me add more memory to WorldPainter.

5) I am selecting custom trees and Minecraft trees to use in various areas of the island (once I can load the map up in WorldPainter) for example I intend to re-create the Ankylosaur area in the Restricted Section of the island and I need trees that have a thickish canopy but the trunks need to be a good 9-10 blocks away from each other so that an Ankylosaur and and Indominus Rex can manoeuvre through them.

6) Gallimimus Valley - I love the Gallimimus and therefore I find it is only fitting that Gallimimus Valley is the first area of the park I will fully landscape. I intend to build an invisible fence between the valley, Triceratops Territory and Hypsilophodon Highlands. However until then I need a wide range of trees and plants to litter the valley with. !!! EXCLUSIVE ALERT !!! You heard it here first, I plan to have the following species in Gallimimus Valley within the first 2 series of my Jurassic World project:

- Gallimimus (Obviously)

- Apatosaurus: Mainly near the forest area of the valley.

- Edmontosaurus: Mainly with Parasaurolophus in the river plateau area.

- Parasaurolophus: Same as Edmontosaurus.

- Ornithomimus: Roaming with the Gallimimus.

- Pachyrhinosaurus: Mainly in the forest/bush area of the valley.

- Archaeornithomimus: Mainly in the plains area of the valley.

- Dryosaurus: This small herbivore will reside in the forest/grassland area of the valley with Thescelosaurus.

- Thescelosaurus: Same as Dryosaurus.

There is also enough room for a large herd of 2 more species but I have yet to decide on those species.

7) Monorail and Fences - I am currently designing a fence that will become the border between the Safe Zone and the Restricted Section of the island. I am also designing pieces of monorail track to import with MCEdit, diagonal track, straight track, an interchange in the track so that 2 monorail trains can be at a station at once (given that they are going in opposite directions).

8) Christmas Teaser - I intend to release a Christmas themed trailer for my series/map before the series starts in early 2016 (likely January/February). I have already started planning the trailer by drawing a couple of key frames and looking for some appropriate music (as a media & film student this is second nature to me).

9) Channel logo - I have a few designs for logos and title cards for each episode as well as a series introduction to each episode. I haven’t decided completely yet but I do have my favourites XD

10) Jurassicraft Pre-Release Reviews - As soon as Jurassicraft release the fix for the dino’s dying I will record a mod review.

So that’s it guys, thanks for reading as always and please head over to my YouTube: HallowsWright95 and subscribe and like the videos I have posted and also don’t forget to follow this blog and my other blog WrighTech Industries for all the latest updates.

Bye for now,

Return to Isla Nublar

Hello there guys, HallowsWright95 here back with another blog post.

Firstly I hope you are all well and I thank you for reading this and all my other posts on both accounts. I also wish to thank you all for watching my YouTube videos, at the moment they’re just teasers for my series when it begins in early 2016 but still it means a lot. Secondly it gives me great pleasure to inform you that I have decided to continue with my current map until the Jurassicraft map is released and then if the Jurassicraft map turns out to be too small for what I need it for then I shall create a 1:1 scale Isla Nublar map and begin the process all over again or I shall continue with my current map which is bigger than 1:1 scale. My decision to do this comes from the Jurassic World movie. I timed my run from the T-rex kingdom I have to the Spinosaurus skeleton and compare it to the music in the film and it fits perfectly meaning that my Main Street is the right size and scale but the island itself is not. The ideal size for a 1:1 scale Isla Nublar would be approximately 11.500 blocks x 15.000 blocks, give or take a few hundred. But this is a bridge I may not have to cross.

So expect new builds coming soon as I continue building my Minecraft Jurassic World.

Thanks for following, reading and watching.

Bye for now,

Jurassic World - Isla Nublar

Many many months ago when the world opened YouTube and discovered the very first Jurassic World trailer had debuted I began building Jurassic World in Minecraft. I started with the island, Isla Nublar primarily alongside sketching exhibit and building designs. I wanted to create a 1:1 scale island so that it would and could be as accurate as possible. The very first map I made using World Painter was waaaayyyyy too small, you could walk from the ferry landing location to the most northernly point in 3 minutes in real time. The second map I built was too big, the lagoon took a good half a day in Minecraft time to cross, more like a small ocean really. The third map was just the right size and I began building and formulating ideas about where I wanted to take the map. YouTube series, public release and even selling the map to a server team all crossed my mind but ultimately I decided to use it for a YouTube series. I had built several exhibits and most of main street and thus I decided to give those who were interested a sneak peek at one exhibit, Treetop Gazers. The video was uploaded to YouTube and has some views. However upon copying an area of map into my world to use as a template I foolishly forgot I had the Securitycraft mod installed. The mod contains mines that look identical to Minecraft vanilla blocks and when I copied the section in the cobblestone had been replaced with cobblestone mines. I didn’t realise and made the mistake of destroying it thinking it was nothing more than a normal block. This subsequently set off a chain reaction of explosives across my map destroying and damaging everything from terrain to buildings. The map had to be deleted, there was no way of salvaging it. So I set about a few more times until finally I had got the perfect balance between island size and scale (or at least that’s what I thought). All my builds since Treetop Gazers have been done on this map. This map has jungle and forest and grasslands that I added and constructed myself and to me the map is perfect as far as appearance goes however there is one almighty flaw ... this map is too damn big but I only discovered this upon construction of the restricted area perimeter fence.

Now as my last few posts may have pointed out I WILL NOT BE MAKING A NEW ISLA NUBLAR MAP MYSELF. I am going to wait until the Jurassicraft team aka Timeless Modding Team, release their Isla Nublar map that is in a scale of 1:2. This scale should suit my builds and the series fine however if it does turn out to be too small then I may very well consider making a new Isla Nublar map.

Thanks for reading and remember please stay tuned to this blog, WrighTech Industries blog and HallowsWright95′s YouTube channel for content, builds and info etc.
