here is a few images of my project :)
Inspiarted me Byzantium 1200 (http://www.arkeo3d.com/byzantium1200/index.html) after i doned Hagia Sopphia, which i projected after seeing video by wiedzmin777 (jakerslake)

Spoiler

wiedzmin777 isnt me, i had the same problem you did (download wasn't working) . I built mine by just copying what i saw in his video

[Sq2000]

This is awesomely beautiful. Great job on this, you really capture the look of that city!

ah sorry -.- , you copied this perfectly... i thiking, that you athor of this video... my text is repaired and once more apologize you... i dont want confrontate you...

Thedosian wall i have mostly doned, but i have this in schematics, becouse i want place teodosian system as far as i know how my imitation of Constantinople will be big... but send me this, maybe you have better than me :) (if you have Porta Aurea i'll be very interest)

Here is my thedosian wall, i have this in modular type schematics... i have doned only Main walls, military gate (piston powered and few sections of inner wall.

Thanks you sq2000 :)

Jake, monasteries sound good... :) tell me what you want build... i planed place for Chalke, Aquaduct of Valens, Zeuxippos batsfor now... but choice is yours...

I must tell one thing... i dont have most place, becouse i cant find suitable peninsula for constantinople i have one.... very small... and i dont be able making topographic map to minecraft...

[jakerslake]

No way man, i apoligize, i should have told earlier.

Yea, im pretty sure that the city site is going to have to be hand made - donthink minecraft spawns pennisulas the size thats needed;    Visually, your walls look very accurate, but im not sure if they a large enough.

right now im starting on the Captitolium and the PANTOKRATOR MONASTERY
about building the CHalke, i was just thinking about it: about the aqueduct: i cant find enough images to go by

Hmmm original walls. so main wals was 12 meters/blocks hight and 5 metres/blocks tall (without battlement) in avarage... and towers is around 20 metres hight... my walls is 3 metres highter, becouse esthetic becouse brick lines... for good quantity of him :) (im sad, that in vanila game is not posible combinate slabs -.-) becouse brick lines is in original around half metres hihgt...

Capitolium and Pantokrator sounds good :)... and in references i have often same probles... here is needing improvizating and healthed sense :) and here is reason for becouse i oftentime change proportions of many building over time :)

but on other side... meter here, meter there, important is final estheticaly vizualing and good proportions :)

[kekenkenka]

Are you planning to put the whole thing up as a schematic when it's done?

[Xiraxis]

yes i planning this... :) i'll soon post all doned building... but i now work on peninsula to raise his size, becouse current is too small...

or if you anyone have big peninsula looks similiar as map below, please, send me this world... thanks

[Neroxyl]

The wall really is the backbone of every city, having this done constantinople is a step closer towards being finished, impressive job!

Zeuxippos baths, chalke and presentation of map

Yes i know, Zeuxippos baths fired in cca 500 AD, after be rebuilded to justical court palace guard headquaters an silk workshop, but in my city is still baths.

Chalke - ceremonila gate of palace

+ map of edited peninsula

[kekenkenka]

Have you made a custom texture pack for this project? It looks like it.

If so, please remember to include that when you release the city!

[jakerslake]

dude do how long did these baths and etc take you? 
As always, looks great, genius. Did you find the peninsula or make it?
so great
