Don't really have much else to announce besides this, so here's another screenie of the area.
-snip-
Aaaaaand I'm hanging out here for a while, if you don't mind, I can kinda help with stuff if you's like.. Anyways onto the screenie, most of the area seems kinda bland, are you trying to use colour to provide points of interest? Also, maybe pull the rings down a little?

The thing to note about this area is that you won't really be seeing it from the wide-angles I mostly present in screenies. The funpath consists of long tunnels along the sides of the cavern, sometimes cramped and sometimes with precariously thin ledges. As such, you don't have many times where you're just looking at the expanse of the cavern, more that it goes by as you continue through the area.
And as for the rings, I have a good reason to place them up by the fleecy box, but I like the idea of adding a few more lower down the pillar.
Haha I loved the T.R.O.L.L Tech Facility! I went inside thinking that it was just another area, and not really a good-looking one. I found the signs around the place talking about clay a bit odd, but when it finally hit me what the clay, and signs, and "conveyor belt" were for, I got a good laugh out of it!
That was a rather original idea, hadn't seen anyone try that before. Props to you for that!
I'd better make sure there aren't any bad bugs in the official release for 1.8, or there will be problems (because I don't like playing versions of Minecraft if they have some bad bugs, like in 1.7 which ruined maps like uncharted Territory 3 and Inferno Mines)
Regardless of whether you find bugs or not, the map will likely use 1.8 features and blocks, so you won't be able to play it without upgrading. In general, official releases tend to be pretty stable, so I wouldn't worry about bugs too much.

Hey, I'm loving Dreadsky Isles so far, and I'm recording my playthrough, but I'm recording a whole lot of episodes before uploading them (So I have enough to keep me lasting for a while) And I was wondering whether I could post them on the thread here when I upload them in, hopefully, a few weeks. (Also, I am totally playing Dreadsky Depths!)
Of course, go right ahead! It's always nice to have people consistently posting videos like that.
Ok, as long as I can beta test it in open beta and closed beta (and test the full release). I'm still waiting for a response to that.
Haha. Anyone and everyone is free to test the map when it comes out in open-beta, as is the nature of open-betas in general. I haven't yet decided who will be doing closed-beta testing, or even how I'll be choosing who tests it. But you seem very enthusiastic, which makes you a good contender. Whenever closed-beta begins, I'll PM you and let you know how you can participate.
Just wanted to tell you about the LP I was doing on the map, a lot of the footage got messed up so I wont be uploading it, it was a really fun map though!
Well that kinda sucks. :/ Did you get far enough into the map were the viewers would be missing a huge portion of it, or just a couple areas?
Just made it to Intersection 2. I swear, that light blue wool was hell. The skeletons and zombies not burning in the daylight, gawd! (I AM LOVING THIS MAP!) I must ask however, are there any areas in the map that basically only contain Spider Spawners. I feel I will need warning, since I am a jittering wreck when faced with those places.

Thanks, glad you liked it!

There is actually an area that pretty much perfectly fits that description... :3
Hmm, I think it's time for a new screenie and area-name hangman. :3
