Today I began my journey around the Overworld of CraftyMynes.

The trip is a square around the 200k by 200k world, leaving me with 800k blocks to travel. The goal is to do this entire journey on "foot" (meaning only using regular running, horses, boats, etc. I do currently plan on using elytra at all.)

I'll try to post screenshots of interesting things I find as I go! So far I've found some items from someone who died trying to go across the border (they had diamonds, a diamond sword and pick, and more!). Found some interesting places as well, such as an ice spikes biome leading into the border, as well as villages going through the border.

This trip will take a long time, and will be included on my channel as an ongoing project. Here are some screenshots from the trip!

Note: Small "journal" entries can be found with most images. The entries are attached to posts further down in this thread, if you care to read them.

Hey you might find one of my older bases on your journey.

Hope you find something interesting and a place for a base perhaps? :)

Should build out there create a magnificen aquaduct all around the server border then anyone coulx make the trip by boat a team could fo it a simple design really

feel free to hire SC for the job. We sure have the manpower to do so lol
I agree it doesnt make much sense tho

Covering 800k blocks with a canal is an interesting thought, but as @MistakeMade said, it's hardly practical or useful.

Found some interesting temples, some of which were outside the border entirely! Added to screenshot list.

Hardly practical or useful have you not seen my other builds

People got way too much free time

The border is hard to see with this shaders pack, but the temple extends slightly outside the border. It was already raided when I found it, but still a really neat find!

A giant gap expands from the border into the world...

Nature just blows my mind, even in Minecraft. I could spend ages gazing at the trees.

A quaint village is set up close to the border. It's environment is unusual - mushrooms and trees and a nice little pond.

Thus marks the 50k point, leaving me with 750k blocks yet to travel. I am 1/16th of the way around the world.

@MistakeMade Nerdie beware. People can now wait out at the border waiting for you to come by so they can kill you now that you gave coords.

I've already moved from the spot, which is why I posted them. I have a warp there anyway, I'm not always at that location when I'm on.

let me know if you see my house at the border

Some crazy terrain generation happened here. The outside was neat as well, but harder to get a good image of. This part is basically an overhang, NOT a cave mouth. It looks incredible, and there were some weird (but likely natural) floating clumps of blocks outside.

An oddly-rounded "cave".

A ravine trailing straight from the border.

A village lost behind the border... I bet the villagers have epic trades. Not that any villagers are alive out there, but hey, one can hope.

RIGHT AFTER I made the last post I FOUND THIS GUY.

Some caves can be very round, once I found one that could potentially be a base in the future due to its oddly round shape

Always cool to see natural generation generate the unnatural. :P

"The View from 0". Finally 1/8th of the way there!

Split in half by the border, a temple lies beneath the waves.

No shaders (shows border)

Using the f3 GUI, I was able to find a mineshaft underneath me (feeling like an x-rayer as I mined down to it). It was right next to the border, and even crossed through a ravine. A tip for fellow explorers - use your entity count! It can be found near the top left of your f3 menu, after "E:". If the second number is above 45 or so, there is likely some structure loaded! Just be careful that you aren't next to a bunch of animals (especially chickens), dropped items, or other entities.

I am less than 10k away from hitting x = +50k , meaning I am nearly 75% of the way done with the Southern Border of CraftyMynes.
