Please read:

This isn't a SkyBlock ripoff. I was working on Sky Conqueror for about two months before I released it, and this was released before SkyBlock anyway. I initially didn't want this to look like a typical sky survival map, rather a map where it's essentially survival but with your main materials divided into separate islands.

Sky Conqueror, Date created: August 30, 2011.
SkyBlock, Date created: September 4, 2011.



Big thanks to Taiine for helping me out with this map almost ever since I posted it!

Click here for southpaw3687's full playthrough of the map. If you don't feel like playing the map or something you can use his videos to see what the ending is like.

I used the skylands map to make this, so if you end up seeing little floating islands off in the distance, please don't go to them. They're just remains from the other map. You can find Skylands here.

And if you actually go to The End, you'll get useful stuff in chests, which just makes everything even easier. (don't follow the eye of ender if you throw it, it leads you to the wrong stronghold. the stronghold is at the end of the map)

The normal world

Spoiler:

Basically, you start on a big floating square in the sky. You can find caves in every square. The first square has iron and coal, and the rest of the squares get better for each one you get to. The next one has gold, then the next is redstone, then lapis lazuli, then diamond. The last one doesn't have any ores, just dungeons. The dungeons currently don't have amazing stuff in them.

Look around the map if you feel like it though. When I get bored making this, I put random stuff in it that might help you. I recommend multiplayer in this map, as it does get fairly difficult, and you would get through it faster.

The Nether

Spoiler:

Creating a Nether portal is actually against the rules, because the Nether is in the normal world. You can find nether islands to the west of every other island. For example, the second island has a nether island to the west of it, then the 4th island has one, and the 6th island has one.

The first nether island has zombie pigman spawners, with some soul sand and fire. The second one has glowstone and ghast spawners, and everything from the island before it. The third one has a nether fortress, and all the stuff from the one before it.

Since blazes can't spawn in the normal world, I put chests with blaze rods in them in the nether fortress.

The End

Spoiler:

The End is currently pretty big. There's a huge square as big as the normal ones in it, but it's made of End Stone. It also has obsidian pillars on it with chests in it. Just make sure you kill the enderdragon when it's above some blocks, or you'll miss all the experience orbs.

I have plans to make there be 3 enderdragons to make it harder. There aren't any Ender Crystals, cause I couldn't figure out how to spawn them. There are now, thanks to someone telling me how to do it.

More stuff

Spoiler:

Tasks you can do (optional)

Downloads

Spoiler:

To download, click on the latest version and wait 5 seconds. Then click "Skip Ad" in the top right corner once it's done. Some people say they don't download anything from adf.ly because they don't wanna wait 5 seconds, but I've been working on this for 364 days and 1 hour and 43 minutes as of the time I wrote this (which I just noticed). I don't see what the problem is with waiting 5 seconds.

Mod version downloads

Spoiler:

Tauvelite ore and Swords+

Spoiler:

Outdated!

Mod: Tauvelite Ore

Mod description prior to this map: The mod needed for this is SwordsPlus1.3. Please read the description in the topic for more info on the entire mod. Anyways, this takes the ore from the Swords+ mod, and adds it to the 6th island. They only appear in one vein, and aren't terribly common. There isn't really any way to use this ore without getting the swords that come along with the map.

Download: Sky Conqueror V1.8.2 (Swords+).zip

If you didn't bother to read any of that, don't play that version of sky conqueror if you don't have the mod installed.

Want to Play on my on my Server? :3 Pm me your Username And I'll Whitelist you

[ocomobock]

So, what do you guys think of this map? I've gotten 41 downloads, but nobody has said anything.

To anyone who REALLY wants to know where the secret things are in the squares, click on the spoilers. It gives coordinates to all of the secret places in the squares. It's more fun if you find it out yourself, though.

wow this looks awesome the first map ive seen like this going to play it tonight.

[Yawinsum]

Am I supposed to get infinite items every time I pick up a block?  Only mod I have is single player commands.

No.. Sorry about that. That wasn't supposed to happen. I probably had that setting on, and forgot to turn it off. Just reset everything if you're gonna play.

Thanks for telling me. If there's anything else wrong with the map, I'd like to know. I'll fix that right now though.

[pandaman070]

Ill try this out. Seems interesting,

[Nargarawr]

Looks pretty unique! I look forward to giving it a go!

[ocomobock]

Okay, I fixed it, and this is the one you're supposed to use. Sorry for all the trouble, guys.

Also, I never mentioned this, but there's a huge wall of stone and lava and tons of other stuff at the very end. At this point, you can do whatever you want. Here's a picture of it:



Also, it takes forever to build to the square after the flower square. Make sure you're ready once you build towards the next one.

Thanks a lot for the feedback though, guys. I appreciate it a lot.

EDIT on October 15, 2011: If you're looking at this picture now, that huge wall isn't in the latest versions of this map.

Not a Problem.  Thank you for fixing it quickly so I can play this cool looking map .

[ocomobock]

I just noticed that there aren't any pumpkins in this map. I wish I realized that before.. I'll add pumpkins in the flower square today.

If anyone notices that there is a missing material, please tell me. I can easily put it in the map, and it would make the map better.

[The_Fear]

Great map so far

My bunker for the first night/day:



The bridge over the the next plateau:



Found the massive clay sphere



And my second night shelter:



Leaves actually make a good material, they're see through and work well as windows. just watch out for creepers

That's really awesome. It's cool to see what people have done with my map. It doesn't look like you had much trouble on your first night, too.

[egesagin]

Great idea man, really! I'll wait until you add the pumpkins though. And tbh I hate maps with random ores without veins, that's unrealistic. Yeah i't good to make it hard to survive but to blindly mine through whole chunks to get ores is kinda boring. That killed my fun in Desert Oasis survival, but still I'll give it a shot

[Gdarthvader]

Looks very nice!

[dillpickle12345]

im gonna use this in a lp is tht ok

[ocomobock]

egesagin - Thanks a lot. And yeah, I hate those types of maps too, and I realize people don't like them. The easiest way to put ores in a map is to use a simple command, but it would take forever to add patches of ores. I'll probably do it sometime, but I don't know how. If you have any suggestions on how to add patches of ores easily into the map, please tell me. I'm clueless as to how I should do that.

Gdarthvader - Thanks.

dillpickle12345 - That would be great. You can definitely do that. I feel very special that you probably made your account to respond to this thread.
