Can you spot where the terrain generator has made a tiny little mistake? It’s not very easy to find; it’s dark and it’s snowing. I’ll just tell you. In the middle of this image, right in the center, there is a lonely floating block of dirt. Sometimes the terrain generator has a little spaz or […]
This mountain is a completely natural occurrence in the world I was playing. It’s shaped like an hourglass and if I had to name this geographic feature, it would be something with the word “hourglass” in it. The tracks come from the distance through a tunnel in the small hill and wraps around the hourglass […]
The mine cart sky bridge stretches over our heads to the mountains in the distance. If you look closely you can see those are the cliffs which have the wooden buildings on the side of them- it’s nearly out of render range. I like this shot because you can see wonderful terrain generation here. It […]
This is a distance view of the wooden cliff-side houses with the mine cart sky bridge connecting to it from the right. Honestly, I think the mine cart tracks do kind of ruin this view, especially the way you see it taking that corner to dodge some trees. The wooden structures on the cliff face […]
This sky bridge powered mine cart track connects on the left to the cliff-side structures. On the right you can see an hourglass shaped hill which, I promise you, was formed completely natural. The mine cart track wraps around this island to change to a lower elevation. Actually, since I started out at the far […]
This view is from the top of a cliff overlooking a lush green forest. On the left is a floating mine cart track that disappears into the sunrise. A part that is out of view because we’re standing on it is the wooden cliff-side building. As usual Minecraft gives us a stunning sunrise as the […]
Standing on top of a cliff looking out over green fields and lush forests and rolling hills is one of the many things that make Minecraft an enjoyable game to play. These computer generated landscapes that stretch out practically infinitely can be explored, deforested, exploded, civilized or anything you want. I want to reassure you […]
Minecraft generates beautiful landscapes but every once in while you get tiny floating blocks that defy gravity. These hills and caves mark the border between the snow biome and regular nature. Near the center top close to the clouds you can see a couple of blocks of dirt that aren’t attached to anything. It’s only […]
This area is a tiny valley surrounded by steep cliff sides and mountains all around. What makes this spot attractive is the spout of water coming out of the side of the rock. Coupled with the snow layer this waterfall scene is part of what makes people fall in love with Minecraft. Remember that all […]
Here you can overlook the valley area next to my spawn point. We’re standing on a floating glass platform connected by sky bridges made of planks similar to the one you see connecting from the right to the hill in the middle of the image. From that hill (which is home to my first note […]
