️🎨SKINS, MAPS AND SHADERS | How To Roleplay: In Depth (Minecraft Roleplay Tutorial)

Hello everyone Mandy here and welcome to my channel or welcome back to my channel so today we’re gonna be doing in other parts of the how to roleplay series so basically this is going to be part one of a three-part section it’s this is going to be the preparation section and

This is a lot of information and the reason is being split up is because this is where our other friend Lily is gonna come in to explain you guys a couple of key things for art for role plays because she’s mainly an artist basically what I am going to be going over is

Skins maps or buildings and shaders so we’re gonna start off with skins so what this is important skins are one of the most important things in a minecraft roleplay make sure that your skins are perfect do not settle on a skin you will not be happy

With the character if you settle on a skin like these are your characters these are your babies make sure that they are as close to how you pictured as possible but just remember you’re working with pixels here if you don’t know how to make skins you can go with

One or two options one you can go to any skin making website and download some and then tweak them to your liking don’t feel bad about taking skins if they’re uploaded in public they’re there for you to use unless the Creator themselves says hey don’t take my skins go crazy

Many many youtubers do this it’s not uncommon some skin sites that I recommend are named MC Nova skin and skin decks so named MC is really great because they have a trending minecraft skin section and they also have a bunch of other stuff here but if you were go

To the trending minecraft skin section you’re gonna come up with a bunch of skins that you could like or whatever you can just go through here and also just get some inspiration and this is a and this is the website that is going to be mostly used this is the one that

People are gonna most go for now another website that is really good either I recommend personally is Novus Canova screen has a wide variety of skins they also have a skin making center so that way if you wanna you know combine skins and overlay skins it’s one of the

Easiest ways to do it because it literally lets you overlay skins on top of each other okay it’s pretty dang cool it’ll give you a model to look at as well but like I said also if you just type in the word roleplay and you just

Type in the word roleplay you’ll see a bunch of skins here they you know just just just just a bunch just a bunch I’ve seen a lot of you know but Nath characters here as well so see also people will label them Aaron’s roleplay so that’s how you know like don’t take

The skins like you do not take the skins if they’re labeled for a specific role play or blow a lot like and they’re doing that and these skins are probably custom made and just don’t take them you know you know but if you type in like the roleplay

Thing like I just did you’re gonna come up with a bunch of people’s like personal roleplay skins so we are now on the skin decks which is the first minecraft skin site that I personally use it is a really good skin site if you want to get in so you know like skin

Making or one out they have a bunch of the cool stuff they have a bunch of like topics so you could go for like the top skins you could go for the latest skins you could go for like recently commented is there’s just a bunch of like cool

Looking skins here and whatnot you could also go to the editor this is how you would edit here so yeah this is how you would make like a roleplay skin here we have an upload feature here that I would need to login to you for that and then

We have a skin grabber but basically you would just type and you know Mandy miss and you can say crab and then it’ll come up with my personal skin if you wanted to quickly grab someone skin you can also see their UUID as well and if you’re also searching for a specific

Like creator personally I searched up my own aname is so this is my thing on skin decks this is just the skins I’ve personally created and made these are the skins that I’ve edited for people you can see my witch skin that I made on here

That was and you know enchanted you can see at some point I was thinking about changing my skin to right here with a beanie I recently thought about change my skin a lot you can see my meaty the skin which is really really old but yeah you can just

See like a bunch of like different creators if you really wanted to if I backspace here you’re gonna see a bunch of different people with a bunch of different skins who also have like the name with like the same amount you know just let’s all like the name so

If you want to search for a specific person you can but okay we’re gonna move on to building slash Maps so picking the right map or a set for a rope it can be very important it just depends on what you mean for your storyline I know a

Bunch of awesome Maps the ones I recommend our Colorado River lapis Point metropolis and Greenfield and if any of these maps don’t meet your needs I suggest you go check out jaren vids or some really awesome minecraft maps now I’m just going to show you each of these

Maps and go over them a little bit okay so this is Colorado River this is the map that I mainly use for improv and this is a really good map for improv so if you come over here you can see you know a bunch of subs this map isn’t

Completely done yet so yeah I don’t think they’ve touched this map in a really really long time so I don’t think it’s going to be done anytime soon but you could just see that it is a city map it’s very like wide and open you know

What I mean like it’s very like it’s not all chunk together and like it’s spacious that’s what I mean it’s good for like improv because as you’re walking around the streets and like a first-person you’re not gonna feel chunked in at all so this that’s why I like this map for improv okay

So lapis point everybody knows lapis point I’ve now used lapis point in a my street and that’s like her main map that she uses lapis Point is a city map that is a very very big city map it is huge and I used this in the past this was my

Go-to map that I always used to use it was so big there are so many spaces it was so realistic and the buildings were so amazing and I really do recommend this map if you want a more realistic feel to your role play and if you just

Want like see these suburban houses see how well they are built uh I love this map it is a it is an oldie but a goodie this map never disappoints never ever ever it is so good now this is metropolis metropolis is a modern city

Project it’s a map and it is what I’m gonna be using for my new role plays because it is honestly it’s so agreeing of one of the reasons why I love this map is because it is so green it’s just there’s a lot of foliage and it’s also a

City and I love that I love greenery I love foliage it’s just it’s amazing I love it and it looks so good and I’ll be going more into depth about this map and show you a couple of my favorite spots within this map just because like this

Is the map I’m using so I have it loaded up on my server right now so this is something that I can show you really really quick and easy but see how beautiful this map is this map is so beautiful there’s so much foliage and

It’s just it’s amazing and I love it so green fields green fields is one of the largest city maps in Minecraft it is huge this map is like a huge I use this map and recommended it to people in my network and they use it for a series and

It’s honestly it’s a really good map and I really like it it has a lot of stuff on it it has beaches it has like sea you would think that that is a real life City it is so big not personally I wouldn’t personally use this map because it is

It’s a lot it really is a lot it’s a lot for like just it’s a lot and it’s a very big map that guy keep saying it’s just there’s a lot of places to go which can be good for some people but for me it’s

It’s too much for me I like it it’s really nice bathroom you want a really large city map but this is the one that you’re gonna go for so basically now I’m just going to fly around and show you guys some spots that I really like the

First spot that I’ve been using to film this is actually this stage thing you know I want to use this stage a lot because it’s really really nice it’s really cute and I really like it um I want to use just like this area in general because this is kind of like a

Festival area this is one of my favorite areas in the whole map obviously I haven’t done anything to it yet but it’s just a really really really nice area okay so I just teleported to another place I used warp books on my server and that’s how I get to places but basically

This is another area or set now this set has been like tampered with obviously as you can see it has been decorated it’s been like they’re NPCs everywhere so yeah but this is another area that I really really like it’s so pretty it’s so like vibrant and beautiful and this

Is an area where a school actually is so yeah it’s really really nice oh there’s the school right there oh my god what is that Wow okay so yeah there is a baseball field there are soccer fields tennis and then there is a little community center over here which is my

Favorite place because I decorated like this little area and it’s just like beautiful Guardian I love it so yeah so another area that I really really love on this map is just a look at this this is a little lookout that you can use for anything it looks over the ocean is

Beautiful there’s a little bridge right there it’s just a really really nice setting for anything that you really want this could be used for a really romantic setting gonna be used for everything I have a body actor on line with me right now who just joined what I joined but yeah this

Is really really nice and do you see what I mean about the foliage and the greenery and just how beautiful it is it’s just I love this I love it that’s all I have to say I just love this map okay so this is the last area that I’m

Gonna show you so this is a church and I love this area and just everywhere around it as you can see it’s been tampered with we’ve put like little gravestones everywhere but like this area is so good I love it personally it’s amazing but yeah this is one little

Area that I like because if we go more over here there is a park over here the aisle personally I personally really really liked it’s gonna get a little bit laggy over here because I am currently building a set right now so yeah that’s what yeah there’s a nice little park

That’s over here it’s super duper cute and then we have you know nice little apartment buildings over here and yes is this gonna look it’s just gonna be really really nice and cute and wonderful and yeah by the way once again greenery it’s beautiful but yeah that’s just basically the main

Areas on this map that I really really like so yeah if you guys would like to download this map all these maps are gonna be down in the description down below so if you like to download any of them go right ahead and check them out

And once again like I said if you want to check out more minecraft maps of none of these maps meet your knees or your expectation so you can go check out Jaron vids yes awesome like Minecraft maps um he gives you like really cool in-depth like like

Walkthroughs of maps he does really nice cinematics of them so yeah but I found all these maps through him so yeah if you want to see more minecraft maps go check them out okay so while we were here I’m gonna go over one more topic this is shaders beautifulness now if you

Couldn’t tell I have shaders on and shaders are a really really nice way to set like a set like a feel to your minecraft roleplay and everything so now I’m gonna open my shaders menu and show you what type of shaders I have okay so basically I have the chocolate big V Civ

And high sheeters on right now I’ll show you much my settings are secret because my settings are just like beautiful and amazing this and I would love to keep them a secret so I replaced a it’s a little bit unique so basically I have all of these Chaka Bukh it’s a very good

Like it’s a very good shader now basically I’m going to show you some of my favorite shaders and keep in mind this is this is the only shader that I have installed on my computer that currently isn’t broken right now like anything that is for like B that’s a

Nice like a b7 it’s gonna work or like something that is for 1.13 it is gonna work because I don’t know why they’re just broken and I’ve tried and I’ve read downloaded and everything it just won’t work but one of my favorite ones of all

Time is ZipZap shaders and it as you can see yeah it’s broken but look at the beautifulness of all of this look at this look at that look at look at its grace and is beauty ah so basically if you download these that’s what it’s supposed to look like

But without this really big black thing right here that’s basically what it’s supposed to look like and I don’t know how to fix the shaders cuz this shader is my favorite shader of all time and it’s broken and I’m so sad that it’s broken but like do you see how beautiful

It would be if it would just work think you don’t know what I mean but yeah this is one of my favorite shaders and it’s just it’s beautiful I love it now this shader actually does work for me and this shader is actually Silver’s vibrant shader so if your computer can

Handle it I definitely recommend using these shaders it’s gonna this so pretty it’s so beautiful in their brain so I’m a really really cool new like settings to this shader pack so yeah it’s gonna be it’s really nice it’s very pretty I love it a lot

I don’t mainly use it because it’s not vibrant enough for me personally but it is really really nice Buchla cheek glitchy but yeah it’s very very nice and I definitely recommend the shader pack now I just wanna make this very clear you guys you do not need shaders in

Order to make a my card for play some people don’t even use shaders personally I do because I think they’re really pretty but they personally people don’t use them either because they just don’t like them or their computer can’t handle the shaders jailers are very intense on

Your computer some chains are like a very intense on your computer but it just it also just depends on what shader pack you’re using but I’m just gonna give you guys a list of like shader packs that I personally like now the ones that I just showed you obviously I

Like those but I’m just gonna give you a full list of all the ones that I like maybe some of these will work for you but my favorite shader packs are chuck fake v7 which is the one I have on right now zip zap which is the first one that I showed you

So there’s vibrant shaders which is the last one that I showed you and then CUDA which is a really good one but I can’t show you that because I don’t have it downloaded but it’s a very good pack so basically if you go down in the description down below you’re gonna find

The CUDA shaders for Minecraft now these are very very nice shaders and I like some elapsed you’re super pretty look at that oh but yeah I’m gonna tunnel these and I’m going to show you how to put them and your game so basically if you have

Optifine on your in your mods folder you should be able to get these really quickly because that’s how I’m currently wearing my shooters is with Optifine or you could use you know the G the the shaders mod or I would also I would just recommend Optifine kiss up to find helps

You run the Minecraft just like a lot lot better okay so basically I have the shaders on my other screen right now but you would honestly just drag it to your desktop click escape if you have Optifine in your clip you’re gonna click options video settings shaders and then

You’re going to go to shaders folder which is at the bottom of your screen if you can’t see it it is right there there we go there you’re gonna click it and then it is going to open for you and then it’ll open like your little shader thingy so basically you’re

Going to drag and drop your shaders right and they are and they’re boom the shaders have been added to your game now you can turn them and use them but yeah I would show you what that shader pack would look like guys but unfortunately in my shares once again are very very

Broken it is not good it doesn’t look cute but trust me those shaders do you look amazing so that’ll basically wrap up this section of this video for you guys if you enjoyed it if it helps you a lot and it was informative and you liked
