Killerx20 had the following to say on his recreation of Midgar in Minecraft:

This is a project that has taken years to do, with help from many many people. The most notable people are Volagarenthor, Ksun, Anniixo, Flock (who is no longer with us and will be deeply missed) and myself. The team died out a while back when our network shut down but I continued to work on it so I can release it to the public eventually.

This map is 6642 Minecraft chunks, 1290×1290 blocks in length and width and uses the full 0-255 height limit.
As a lot are probably wondering, yes, more then 85% of this build WAS indeed hand placed. The only things that were not are the outer plates, tower, and reactors BUT that doesn’t mean they were completed when imported, they were basically detail-less empty shells and I wanted it that way so everything on/inside them had to be hand placed for optimal detail.

There are are a few things I would still like to do to this map one day, adding more detail and variant to the buildings, slums sewer network system, and other means of transport other then walking in the slums. I tried to get rid of most of the bugged lighting on the map to the best I could, if anybody spots any please let me know.

This map contains all visitable areas from Final Fantasy VII, as well as many areas from Crisis Core and Dirge of Cerberus. Everything you see has an interior and is enter-able. I believe in making things look good as well as have functionality. Making a building look pretty without being able to have an interior is useless to me.”
