I suppose I can see some similarities to the artifact thing.... sorta.... but you could also say that the artifact thing is just mimicing the original dungeons that are already in the game.
Also, there's one other big fact: THIS one is playable. The Artifact mod, as interesting as it looks (I've been following it too) wont be playable for QUITE AWHILE. Progress on that has been INCREDIBLY slow.
Back to the mod itself here....
This does look pretty neat, actually. I had seen this before, actually, but it was that video that made it really make sense. I do believe I may try this one out.
And you say you'll be putting in other types of dungeons beyond just this one? That sounds even more excellent. That's one thing that's always bothered me about the game in it's current state, is that when finding dungeons, you're always just finding the same one...
I'll be following this one, I think.
EDIT:
I strongly support the idea of adding a dungeon type to the Nether. It needs more STUFF to find. Specifically, I constantly want it to have more than just 3 unique block types to find. The 3 blocks that are there are pretty neat.... Netherrack's burning property is useful, Soul Sand is what I make docks out of, and Glowstone.... well, is shiny, it doesnt do a bloody thing yet... but the Nether REALLY needs more blocks.
If I might add to that specific dungeon suggestion a bit myself... dont go and make the first Nether dungeon into a super-rare thing like the Minum one is. If you're going to make a whole bunch of different dungeon types, as seems to be the idea here, there definitely needs to be some more common ones as well, similar to the game's original one. The Nether doesnt have ANYTHING like this yet, not to mention it's structure is drastically different and more dangerous than the overworld, so starting with something a bit more common might be a good idea. Dont get me wrong, I love a challenge, but still, my point stands. Not to mention that most players wont spend alot of time mining in there, and so would usually not find a dungeon that's buried real far in as it is. Simply because there's no ore to mine FOR, unlike the overworld, where you might stumble upon a dungeon when digging out iron or just mining normally.
You could also require an item crafted with Glowstone to enter the basic Nether dungeon. Glowstone is challenging to get, while not being TOO hard. Or, you could even add a fourth naturally-occurring block to the Nether, and require that players use that to craft an entrance-item (you could even perhaps add a side use or two for such a block. Perhaps the block itself has some interesting property, so it's not JUST a "dungeon key").
True the Artifact Mod will not be up for some time. But It seems it'll be ready in 1 to 7+ months. given He already made the Item's, and right now just making the temples and mobs. I say this will be done in less then 7 months.
Back to this mob. I total Agree with you on this. Dont make the Nether dungeons a Rare thing to find. Cause it rare to find Diamond's and Hmmm I Guess rare for me to find lava or to much trouble to get Lava and Water to make Osidian.
Looks neat! I would probably try it out, but I'm having trouble with the mods I have so I gotta settle this stuff out first. I might try it later. Also an idea, maybe you could add like a minion of the Dungeon Masters that help protect the dungeon instead of just the Dungeon Masters? Just an idea.
Hey, Why don't you try downloading Mycraft? It's an easyuse mod Thing (if you know what your doing), and it comes with a fly mod!
And about the Mod, I give you 10 Diamond spawners! (lawl.)

Huzzah! It works! Even though I had to redownload minecraft, it works! Epic mod, I found 2 Minum dungeons in my first night, one of which was sticking out of the ground!
@tcm9999 Thats a good idea, however it would be almost impossible without rewriting the whole void. Thanks for the idea though!
Sorry for the delay on the updates, Im waiting for MCP to come out, and Im working on a new dungeon. It's in the nether, and it's not really a dungeon, but what it contains is an item that will really help in other areas of the game.

I like it how it is because putting it in a chest would make it seem more like the other dungeon and the next dungeon I'm making (Well, finished, just waiting for MCP) (Actually, it looks like a beta release is out now, update and new dungeon possibly coming soon!).
EDIT: The update is out!

I just put 1.5_1 on a clean version with modloader and I get a black screen when I put the mod on. When I run it with cmd it says there is an error with the bc.class... help for a :biggrin.gif:
*edit* I deleted all of the dumb stuff like meta-inf and things like that
bc.class is the cloth class, which has nothing to do with this mod, so I dont know. Did deleting META-INF fix it?
EDIT: Had mesed up the download link, its fixed now.

Looks really cool, but could you please maybe make the Dungeon Master look kind of More sinister? He just looks like a killer Barny......But, then again, Barny Is a killer Barny... O.o
My dungeoncraft doesnt work. i have done the things it said in the readme.txt and i have deleted the META folder. It always shows a black screen pls help me.
Hi Sirgren, I'm working on a custom map that uses the DugeonCraft mod, it's about an infection of Minum, And was made in my home world, but I locked all of my chests :biggrin.gif:. It also has !!
For anyone that plays it!
The official page of it can be found in the Mapping Section of Mapping and Modding.
It says it in the post, and you can change them in the settings file. Also, the newest update, there should NOT be that many chests per dungeon and it should be more dungeon-like, I just messed up.

You will have to go out far enough to load new chunks, or you can start a new world. Its your choice.
