PvE r9
PvE map revision 9 started August 10, 2012 and is the current PvE revision. It features vanilla terrain and, of course, a host of new features added by Minecraft 1.3.
Geography
With the goal of improving server stability, the map this revision is 100% vanilla, generated using the new large biomes option. At least initially, the map is significantly smaller as well, measuring 4000×4000 blocks. It may eventually expand mid-revision to 6000×6000 blocks, matching the size of previous revisions.
Maps
- The official cartograph is available at http://redditpublic.com/carto/pve/current/index.html . According to the /r/mcpublic sidebar, it will be updated every two days.
Notable creations
Many (but not all) PvE players like to work together on large collaborative projects, often taking the form of cities and towns. Some cities are reincarnations from previous revisions; others are brand-new. Many have their own subreddits as well to aid collaboration.

Transportation
Rail
Most cities have rail stations (complete with CARTS computers), featuring direct underground links to other cities and to spawn.

- Please add the coordinates for the Nether/End portals as you find them!
Nether portals
The Nether can be accessed from spawn's portal - Follow the scenic route down from spawn! There are additional pre-built portals at the coordinates below. Players cannot create their own portals.
| Portal | Overworld coords | Nether coords | Notes |
| Spawn: | (-54, -11) | ~(0, 0) | On a floating island, about halfway between spawn and the ground. |
| North-west: Lothos | (-1500, -1500) | ||
| South-west: Seneca | (-1500, +1500) | ||
| South-east: Pico | (+1500, +1500) | ||
| North-east: Wellspring | (+1500, -1500) | ||
| Secret portal 1: Moo | (-240, 1875) | (-30, 230) | |
| Secret portal 2: Air Temple | (1800, -400) | (220, -40) | Accessible in the Nether by starting at the Wellspring portal and walking along the wooden road towards the blaze grinder. |
End portals
Every Minecraft map has three strongholds, each with an End portal that can be activated. Rev 9's portals:
- End Portal 1 @ (-138x, 821z, 40y): Claimed by Brom (with the assistance of Moo). Has a rail station that connects directly to Brom and Spawn (with room for expansion, should anyone be interested in connecting). Surface access is at (-117x, 818z, 70y); follow the cobble stripe on the floor once you're inside the stronghold proper.
- (end portal coordinate 2): not activated yet
- (end portal coordinate 3): not activated yet
New for this revision is the PvE Archaeological Association [1], which plans to preserve and refurbish one of the strongholds.
