Instead of a screenshot today, here’s a video from my Youtube series: Ralph plays Minecraft. This is the first part of a playthrough of the Redmurk adventure map that I tackle with Darryl.
This is a mine cart station idea that I had. It’s located in my town and should transport the player across a lake. The idea is for one cart to be waiting at each end of the tracks. You can get into one side and push the button to set yourself off and when you […]
The first seeds have been planted in the greenhouse. The structure is going up slowly because all the materials have to be mined, cooked, etc, manually because we aren’t using and “cheats” in this multi-player world. Later on the grass will be taken out as well because pigs and cows keep spawning inside and ruining […]
This is a birds-eye view of a piece of mine cart track. It ends on the right side where it enters some wooden structures. To the left it enters a tunnel in the mountain and passes through all the way to the other side where in similar wooden structures attached to the cliff-face. Unfortunately I […]
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 […]
Here is a view of the first two structures of the cliff-side housing. From the clouds you can gauge the elevation of these buildings on the side of the cliff. The stone structure on the right is where mine carts end up- a kind of simple train station with a floating platform. Inside the left […]
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 […]
