I think this sounds like a great idea. At least, the original suggestion, I'm not sure about directions, given the (mostly) random generation of minecraft worlds.
I suppose they could make it so that it would point the direction towards some sort of treasure that is spawned with, and paired with the book, somehow, but even that could be tricky.
I've been playing on this server the last few days, along with a few of my friends, and though I'd share my opinion on it.
I haven't played on many RP servers (or many servers in general), but this server is proving to be fairly enjoyable. So far, everyone I've met on the server, has been friendly, and willing to help out others. It's interesting how the admins have chosen to do a few things, although I'm not complaining (Specifically having a separate resource world).
Overall, I'd say this is a good server, for the not too serious RPer, since the extent of that (or so it seems) on this server, would be the Heroes classes. If you're fine with that, this server will be great for you, I'm sure.
I applied last friday on the website, but it doesn't seem I got accepted, so i thought I'd post here just in case.
If I don't get accepted this time, PLEASE tell me why, i won't beg or whine, just try again, Thanks.

8. I'm a high school student and I love to write, although designing things is also great.
9. I want to join the server because I've always wanted to try RP, because to really get into SMP, I need to be in a community and because I think it would be a good chance to work on some of my Minecraft skills.
10. I`ve been working on my Elven building skills lately, and would love to help develop the RP with my story skills.

13. Work Bench/Furnace Regular people can't make these, so you need to go to a crafting hall in order to craft things.
You need to use spoutcraft launcher to play, it auto installs server mods and lets admin make new blocks.
First of all, I'm posting this here because even though this is about a map, it could be used in other ways.
For the last little while I've been working on an adventure map which I've dubbed Kala Bay. So far I've built a church, a tavern/Inn, a town hall/court house, a lighthouse and a ship. You can find some of these photos posted here
The thing is I could use some help building and designing some buildings. I would really appreciate if anyone could take some time and help me build some things. I would of course credit anyone who contributed, if I used any of their work. I would reserve the right to distribute and modify anything submitted and contributing will not give you rights over this project. Also, please include photos with posts.
For the map I will be using SMP's Revival Texture Pack which can be found here . I have gotten his permission to distribute it with the map and even make any changes to it that I want (If you make something, maybe use this pack to make sure it looks good and don't get too attached to your pictures in game :smile.gif: )
Some of the things I could use help with are:
A bakery - small, quaint
An armory/forge - once again, small, not overly complicated
Lumberjacks cabin - small, able to be secluded in the woods
A library - this is going to be a general rule, include what is needed, but not overly large.
A school - I already tried this, but I'm not very happy with it so I'd like to see some ideas.
Stores - I'd like to see various stores, it doesn't matter what for really, but remember this is just going to be a town
Houses - Various houses for the inhabitants of Kala Bay. Include what you will.
Guard towers - something that I might be able to put in a few place around the town
A farm - small, do your best
Tailor shop - I already asked for stores, but I really want this.
A wizards tower - I've already attempted this, but I'm not happy with the results, you could make this on the ground or on a floating island as long as it looks good.
If you wish to submit, you could link to a world save (please note that I am using Pre release 5) or you could send me a schematic (if you do this, a small explination would be helpful on how to use Mcedit successfully).
My absolute apologies for the amount of time it has taken me to complete this skin! I usually take 30 mins maximum for decent skin but I experienced 3 crashes of my PC and many technical hitches along the way.
As you can see below I managed to get it finished! I chose earthy colours for the clothing and some leathery parts to depict some form of light armour. The iron shovel is strapped to the harness on the back of the skin.
I also added a small medallion/necklace.
I jest got home, I appreciate your work, and I'm happy to see you took the time to make this. It does look great, but if you don't mind, maybe he could use a little bit more modern clothes, or at the very least a bit darker, that would make a bit more contrast to his pale skin. Thanks, Knoxogoshi.
No problem, I'd be happy to help out :smile.gif:
I'm having a little technical hiccup with my Image Manipulation Program right now, but I'll start it in a sec. Should take no more than 30 minutes.
Kind Regards, Knoxogoshi :wink.gif:
Wow. Thanks. I can't wait to see what you come up with. I'll have a look when I get home. Good luck.
I'll be happy to give this ago! Is there anything in particular you wish to be included. A shovel perhaps?

Besides what I've already mentioned, an iron shovel on his back would be great, other than that, I'd love to see your creativity. Thanks for trying this out.
If anyone is willing, I would love a skin of the protagonist of the Tunnels series of books, Will Burrows. Since it is a book, I don't have a picture of him, but in the book I believe he is described as having very pale skin, very dark brown hair with a stripe of white on the left side and because he loves to dig tunnels, he is often dirty. It doesn't really matter what he is wearing, but I would prefer no hat. Thanks.
Not sure if you can... but if you could you may want to make sure that they don't wonder off... all of the npc villages i've been too have resulted in mass exoduses once ive checked them out. The NPCs seem to wander off and never return...
I did think of that, I would surround them with fences or something.
Thanks for the quick response, I'll try that when I get home, but those are mods, so will they stay if spawned, even if I remove the mods. It wouldn't be good to have amap that required people to install mods.
I've recently started work on a new adventure map that I will be calling Kala Bay for the moment. I'm wondering if, through the use of a program, hopefully not a mod, if I could get Testificates to spawn where I want them.
Thanks.

Could you? I'd do it myself, if I weren't afraid of my head exploding :smile.gif:

Thanks for the skin, I appreciate it. The series is really good too, and there are two more books to come out.
