I just finished creating a dungeon crawl adventure map entitled "Dead Dwarf City". I really like how it came out, especially the branching paths and secret areas.

If anyone wants to check it out, here's a link to the thread I made on the minecraft forums.

The Zombie Pigmen... they killed me... took my level 50 fortune III diamond drill.

So I respawned at home, donned my carbon nanofiber armor and my trusty chainsaw and went to the nearest portal to exact bloody revenge on them and their families. They tried to hit me with their gold swords, but they all barely made a dent that was instantly healed by my full stomach (kids, always eat all your breakfast before going on a killing spree).

I also got all my stuff, including the drill, before they despawned. Yay!

True. Very, very true.

Beat it, and learned a few things.

1: Holy crap, I forgot how shitty Minecraft runs on my computer on a real map, not one of the minimalist survival maps.
2: Adventure maps are fun.
3: Creeper explosions + elevated hallway = required breaking of rules to build a bridge. Also equals lava leakage and !!FUN!!.
4: I picked up a random stone slab at the beginning, under the third(?) set of signs. Was that intentional?
5: Chests are strange. Some are directly underneath other blocks, preventing them from being opened. Some contain utterly useless crap, others contain an excess of treasure. I found a chest packed full of watches. Why so many?
6: Needs hints about where to find stuff. For example, the

seemed like a place that would have had a note or sign referring to it elsewhere. Unless there was a sign or note and I just missed it.
7: Weapon and armor quality picked up at a good pace.
8: Diamond stuff is hard to find. I only managed to find the leggings.

All in all, great map. I can tell you put a lot of work into it.

Hey, thanks for giving the map a run and for the feedback you provided; I'm glad you enjoyed your adventure!  :D

I suspected I should've included a "Creeper Clause"...  :-\

Yup.  :D

I've been playing the technic pack, but have run into a problem. I haven't seen one enderman while playing. While that's troublesome enough, I boosted their frequency to that of spiders. While I see tons of spiders, I don't see any endermen. I don't get why I haven't seen a single enderman this entire time. I'm guessing it's a bug but can't find anything about it.

Anyone have a solution or similar problem?

I've seen endermen a couple times, but not often enough that I hadn't already collected enough obsidian for a nether gate, to make a philosopher's stone with glowstone rather than ender pearls. I'm not familiar with all the additions to vanilla to know whether their rarity will be problematic for other reasons (e.g. to to get to the End).

In other news, I just spent my last couple of sessions painstainkingly clearing away a volcano by hand, so that the basalt wasn't wasted by my quarry, and only now do I realize I could've just rezoned and moved the quarry up a couple blocks to save myself the trouble. I'm a terrible engineer.

Also, anyone know how much light luminators emit compared to torches? I know glowstone blocks and fire (on netherrack) is one tile more than a torch. Redpower lamps?

Could just make another couple-dozen chests and collect the volcano.

I would bet money Andrew has edited things retroactively, except I can't prove anything because it was edited retroactively.

Do volcanoes erupt on their own? I helped mine out and got a nice lava flow going.

Also, are volcanoes good for anything?

A supply of basalt, which is pretty nice to build with.

I wish I could somehow turn basalt into regular stone though.

Or at least that it wasn't so damn useless.

Spotted my first mushroom biome today, from a distance. Using the Biosphere (with bridges and domes edited out) and Airship mods, I can just barely see giant mushrooms from my starting island. As soon as I find some iron, that's gonna be my first destination.

I found a volcano, and guess what was at the top?

A nordic miner.


Also, how do I begin that creation quest for technic?
