Hi everyone! Im new here so this will be my first post. And its about this issue Im having with finding cave systems. Im playing on the xbox 360 version and its been a problem for a while. I can go digging for 10 minutes straight in different directions and come up empty handed. Some time I can her skeletons and zombies right next to me and still somehow pass it. what do I do? Have any of you guys had this problem before?
And in your case, just keep trying. Try to source the sounds and head that way unless you're close to the surface, in which case, dig further down and look.
There also should be surface caves dotted about the world.
When you hear MOB sounds, try to dig in the direction that they seem the loudest (North/South and East West). If you get to that point where they get quieter in any direction you move and you still haven't found the cave, you may have to go either up or down from there as the MOB should be either above you or below you at that point.
Alternatively, you could try starting at one side of your map... digging down sufficiently (I like y=13 for getting diamonds along the way, but not a lot of lava to worry about at that level) and then dig in a straight line toward the opposite side of the map. I usually eventually run into some huge ravines that go across my path when doing that.
