MESSAGE FROM THE CREATOR:

Everyone, if you appreciate the work I've done on this world for you, please "endorse" this project. Of all of the mod authors on Nexus, us world creators put the most time and energy into our work (imagine the daunting task of designing and creating a world space of roughly 4.5 miles by 4.5 miles, manually. It takes months of dedicated creative work). It's also a general feeling in the world creation groups that we are mostly overlooked and under appreciated. Show some love not only for this project, but for the other world creators on Nexus, they deserve it!.


UPDATE LOG:

1. The main map files are unchanged - no need to update those yet.

Game release 1.XX  - 8K Epic Custom Exploration World

A made for VR world (100% playable in flat screen) - 7DVR


Astoria represents over 300+ hours of focused effort and attention to detail. Astoria is an artistically crafted, one of a kind world. It represents significant innovation in height map crafting and is the pinnacle of current 7D2D custom world development, surpassing Arcadia, released in 2024. This initial release pushes the limits in stock asset usage. Dozens of custom made experiences have been worked into this world without the need of a single external asset.




This world includes (But not limited to):

1 - Epic half-pipe racetrack.
4 - Custom built, world embedded battleground arenas.
2 - Epic egg shaped driving half-pipes.
5 - Blood moon challenge forts
Custom Swamp Biome.
Custom crafted sub-biomes.
Minecraft like cave systems
All rare stock POIs have been added, even those not included in random world generator.

Custom hand crafted, complex road system
Hundreds of hand placed POIs
Several custom POI communities
Abandoned caves for player bases (caves with no Zs or loot)
Off-road colosseum

AND MORE!!!

Optional Customization Files:

Pending, the plan is to include:
Drain flooded city
Drain flooded city and ocean


For racing or battling events, I recommend you use a mod that customizes the starting inventory. That way players will start with any vehicles, weapons, fuel, ammo, or add-on items needed. We may include these files with the starting kit mod in later releases.
