This goes great with [url=http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/379925-181-matmos-r6-environmental-sound-atmosphere-simulator/]MAtmos[/url]. Some of the effects, like birds tweeting, give it a good island atmosphere (imo). Map-related: The first night and I'm already stuck in a hole. Why do I do this on every survival map? ._.
Reinstalled the map, and I have one question. Is visiting the Nether considered legal? I want to make a brewing stand and it'd be a good source of lava, too. On a similar note, is it legal (or even possible) to make an enchantment station? There's at least one diamond on this map, but i'm unsure how many. [editline]20th October 1984[/editline] Fuck it, Nether time.
Okay, I just found a [I]pig[/I] spawner in the mountain. Someone explain. [editline]20th October 2011[/editline] Oh, sweet, found-and-destroyed a Ghast spawner too, although I really doubt it's the only one. [editline]20th October 2011[/editline] Progress! [release]Gather 20 Slimeballs ✔ Find the abandoned hut ✔ Explore the inside of the mountains ✔ Build a two story house with at least 10 windows ✔ Build a help sign out of bricks ✔ Find 10 diamonds ✔ Make a wheat farm ✔ Make a cactus farm Make a sugar reed farm ✔ destroy two mob spawners ✔ Build a waterfall ✔ Slay at least 5 creepers ✔ Collect an ender pearl ✔ Make a giant red mushroom ✔ [Made both giant mushrooms] Build something from stone bricks ✔ Make some mushroom stew ✔ Make a cake ✔ Build a statue ✔ Build a MobTrap ✔ Make 5 Jack-o-lanterns ✔ [/release] [del]Working on the help sign, then I just need an enderman and a bit of luck.[/del] Done! Fantastically made map, that cave is downright beautiful in minecraft terms. I really feel like it should have some "actual" dungeons to it, though, like hidden behinds walls or something. You could add a single moss stone block beneath the spawner and it's just a challenge to find as many as you can, that and the webbed entrance to the cave should be modified to act a bit more like a normal-world's abandoned mineshaft, and why not add a stronghold somewhere while we're at it, just because?

The download link won't work for me. I'm really looking forward to playing this map too. Edit: Could someone upload it somewhere else please? I really want to try this map out. [editline]23rd October 2011[/editline] Doesn't matter guys, my mate downloaded it and is sending me it over Skype.

[editline]24th October 2011[/editline] By the way, the download link in the op works just fine for me.
MediaFire doesn't work for me, main site loads, but no links to downloads work. [editline]24th October 2011[/editline] [img]http://i.imgur.com/57ak2.png[/img] [editline]24th October 2011[/editline] I think mediafire has been blocked in the UK, over proxy from any other country I can access it, but from my normal UK connection, it just gives me an error.

This map is fucking awesome, no doubt about it!

[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;32940101]I think mediafire has been blocked in the UK, over proxy from any other country I can access it, but from my normal UK connection, it just gives me an error.[/QUOTE] I think it's a bit more specific than UK, as I can't access it but I have a british friend who can access it. He's on O2, i'm on Sky Broadband. This deserves some research into it.

This deserves some research into it.[/QUOTE] I'm with Sky Broadband as well. This is really strange, why would mediafire all of a sudden block some UK ISPs? The only reason I can think of is in some way, some of the UK ISP's have broken some rules set down by some ISP's, resulting in the ISP blocking that website.
Well, that's annoying. Maybe they're blocking it while they clear away some illegal content like, I dunno, child porn or something. Does anyone have any idea when it's going to be unblocked, or is that pretty much unguessable?

But more onto the subject of it being unblocked, it could be tomorrow, or it could next year, or could never happen.
Oddly enough, I'm on Sky Broadband too, how fun!
I've been meaning to switch to Virgin Media, apparently they're the UK's best ISP.

[editline]24th October 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=LuckyLuke;32944789]I've been meaning to switch to Virgin Media, apparently they're the UK's best ISP.[/QUOTE] Nope, enjoy the throttling and slow speeds during peak hours.
[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;32944789]I've been meaning to switch to Virgin Media, apparently they're the UK's best ISP.[/QUOTE] Fastest average speed limits, but with some heavy downsides and you're unlikely to actually reach those speeds or get anywhere near them. Sky are best, imo. I've got unlimited downloads and a speed decent enough to play multiplayer games.
[QUOTE=LuckyLuke;32944789]I've been meaning to switch to Virgin Media, apparently they're the UK's best ISP.[/QUOTE] Don't go to Virgin. I actually cannot load anything from 6pm onwards; my entire router freezes up and doesn't do anything! I think I'm switching over to BT for that 'Infinity' deal, and it seems that that is the best bet imo
I love the map, but for some reason not having a flat normal ocean really pisses me off, good work though, very well made.

[editline]25th October 2011[/editline] Internet Watch Foundation, that is.
Away,false page 4! I built a mini sky-platform-house-workroom-thing using two giant brown mushrooms,fences,ladders and house essentials(furnace,workbench,double chest).It's rather cosy.Instead of lighting it up with torches,I used jack-o-lanterns. I just realised:I should make a pumpkin or melon farm.

[editline]25th October 2011[/editline] Anyway, back on topic, I got around to playing it with a friend on Multiplayer, I forgot to tell him about the dangers that lie inside of the mountain, so he dug in from the top and immediately fell into a bunch of mobs and was completely raped. I on the other hand started on a small farm and a house on the side of the island near the spawn area. It's a beautiful map if i'm honest.
