Looks really good! Would you be making a custom texture pack for it?
Can't wait!

~Omega

There are no plans for this right now, a lot of the default textures fit nicely as it is!

A texture pack for items might be nice, a crab claw =/= red stone switch thingy.

[Nick3306]

We are well aware how much benefit a custom resource pack would be. It just isn't high on the priorities list right now.

[DeeKay]

What Nick said. Before we introduce a resource pack there will likely be placeholder items like this, just something in place that looks (ever so slightly) what the item is supposed to be with the limitations of vanilla textures.

I know coding something like this takes time, but how often will we get updates for this? Just curious, as anyone who has the nerve to ask such a question.

Updates won't be very frequent I'm afraid, however I can reveal that we are working very hard to get all the coding and building done in reasonable time for the alpha release. Please don't be afraid to ask however. Personally I think a teaser screenshot or something every so often isn't unreasonable. Opinions Loaf, Toby, Nick?

[SonicHogSpeed]

Was that a troll…?

[Nick3306]

I honestly would like to be giving more updates than we currently are but we have just been so busy in real life.

[100penguin.]

What Nick said. Also, yeah, It was a troll.

[TheWholeLoaf]

Building is going very well, at least 3/4 of the way done.

[Tobs]

Building is going very well, at least 3/4 of the way done.

I'll add this is for OptiQuest's Alpha release, we want to expand the world even further when we can.

Fantastic view!

[TheWholeLoaf]

Indeed, the opening map for alpha release is 3/4 way done, but the map will never be complete, it'll be expanded upon for new releases in the future.

This seems really interesting. I like the idea. Keep it up! I would really like to start joining you guys again. Miss the community. Also, if you ever need help building, I did work for multiple professional build teams that did builds for money. I can show pictures, also have references.

Wheeeeen? I want to play on optiquest...

Hello all!
On behalf of the Optiquest Dev team, I present to you some small snapshots of the world as it stands. We have all been working hard to get this project completed, however it seems unlikely we shall manage to release this summer (*Soon* tm). Until then, enjoy these screenies I've taken.
