    [ATB] Environment Conquest

    Current Version v1.0.0 (Released on 22nd May 2016)


    Download:

    http://www.mediafire.com/download/qgk899b0u3zu13y/Environment Conquest.zip


    Hello, my name is Vops and I am the proud creator of my very first and latest map called Environment Conquest. I have spent the past year and a half trying to create a new and engaging experience for Survival Minecraft players that takes on this new genre I have also created called ATB, which stands for Activate the Beacons and as you can guess, the goal is to capture all the beacons in this map.


    Objective:

    Find and capture 3 beacons per area. There are a total of 4 areas in the map and here are some of the screenshots of the areas you will see in this map:


    Ruby Canyon:


    Emerald Forest:


    Snowfrost Peaks:


    Sunfall Desert:


    Monument Mountain:


    Rules:

    • Survive in any way you can, this map is designed for survival based strategy however bear in mind the following constraints:
    • Do not leave the map boundaries
    • No ender chests are to be used
    • Beds are to be used to only set the player’s spawn, however do not sleep the night otherwise it removes the thunder storms (which spawns hostile mobs during the day) and thus ruins the gameplay component
    • I recommend using a high (16 chunk) render distance for this map

    Credits:

    Environment Conquest is created by Vops,


    Please do not claim Environment Conquest as your own work. However YouTube videos of this map are more than welcome and are much appreciated and if possible, please post the first episode in the comments section of this post so I can later post a list of people who played this map via YouTube.


    Also as the creator of the ATB genre, anyone can most definitely create their own ATB maps! I would love to see people upload their own ATB maps as long as it’s their own works and nothing is copied from my map, apart from the Redstone which I give permission for people to replicate it. I’ll try and post a YouTube tutorial on how you can re-create these capture beacons into your own map for the map maker’s convenience. I’ll update this post with this tutorial video once I’ve made it…


    Please report any bugs with this map as it’s currently in v1.0

    Bffff, love the first pic and hate the block variation of the second... U need to improvwe it... xD

    I'd have to agree with ViCABO in terms of the block palette in the second photo. Perhaps when there's a stable snapshot available, you could experiment with the new magma blocks, they blend quite well with the lava and gives the overall cave some texture. The top one on the other hand looks amazing and so does the level design layout! I'm excited for more of these snapshots :)

    posted a message on Why are so many people complaining about the terrain?
    Because people don't appreciate what Mojang do to the game, they added new biomes and people complain that it's too new. Minecraft isn't an easy game to program considering that there are like millions and millions of people that play it. One of those millions will have something to complain like bugs etc.

    posted a message on New PvP Tactics
    Minecraft sword PvP is very plain at the moment. Adding the smallest of things like a shield or deflection makes PvP strategic and not getting the same battles where whoever spam clicks the fastest or gets the first hit wins. SethBling made a plugin for this which I thought was clever. But I still think Mojang needs to consider revamping sword PvP. Look at Chivalry, one of the most fluent pvp games up to date. And now look at minecraft, the most tedious sword pvp fights up to date! However bows are pretty well managed and bow fights are actually kind of fun. But the sword fights are getting more ridiculous.

    posted a message on Amazing House I built! Also my first post here! :)
    Also wanted to point out, the acacia wood bark and the cobblestone (stone bricks and gravel mixed) make an amazing combo. I've never seen that before so well done :-)

    Quote from ImJellyfish»
    Sorry i unfortunately do not support

    Reason: Mojang had planned for coloured wood but decided against it and made coloured clay.

    This was due to the amount of work that would have to be done as it must have the properties of normal wood so that is
    16 x 7 x 6 =672 +16 = 688
    (Colours) x (slabs,stairs,fences,fence gate,doors,pressure plates,buttons) x (oak,birch,jungle,spruce,dark oak,acacia*) = (672 new blocks just to give them colour that's alot of work)

    A few other points:
    - including tools would make there be thousands of new items/blocks*
    -The addition of paint buckets adds even more items another 16 items when you could really just of used a cauldron to clean the wood and normal dye
    - If this was to happen it would most likely be in its own full update nothing else but this due to some possible technical limitations involved in chunk data and performance (not 100% sure about it)

    * i understand you didn't include this but im not sure if it would make much sense to only allow certain wood types have colours (and not allow wood tools to be made with them) but it still add to 112+16=128 new blocks/items total for only birch wood colours (and paint buckets)

    UPDATE:
    You have now also said there would be coloured tools so there a 5 tools (wood variety) meaning that is 16 x 12 x 6 =1152!!! +16 =1168 NEW BLOCKS AND ITEMS just from this suggestion, just to add coloured wood
    or only birch would be 16 x 12 =192 +16 = 208
    100% do not support due to the insanity of it

    It would add so much to the game though, anyone would be happy to have colorful things. Like stained torches to have colored lighting would add a lot to the game. And having stained wooden swords can add an aspect to map making. They added dyed leather armor so why not make colored tools? It would be a lot of work but mojang should be able to handle it imo.

    Quote from NorthMustang»

    WRONG! If you are smart, then you would realize just how vital farming multiple food types can be. Now lets look at a QUICK example: I get on minecraft and I start up a new survival world, I start looking for food, I can't find ANY animals (which has happened to me), or I Just can't afford to kill them because I need them to start my farm, so now what, I end up desperately searching for something to eat, yet all I can do is gather seeds to wait for wheat to grow (most likely till I'm almost dead from hunger), and then I have to wait, and wait, and wait, and I find that I've just spent alot of time waiting for this cruddy old wheat to grow. Now, I have found out just how helpful a greater variety of food can be, where one food fails, the other might not, and btw when you are in a situation where you need just a little more food points to start healing from an attack that left you with only one heart, and all you have is a steak or two, you'll find that it is much easier with more of other foods that give you smaller amounts of food points in exchange for a higher quantity of the food itself, and with the meats you have to kill an animal that took a while to grow up, just to use some fuel to make it a little more worth the time (which is still a waste of time, unless you have a farm full of animals)

    Exactly what I was thinking, more ways to farm gives you a new way to play the game

    posted a message on Squirrels! A mob to add ambiance and more to the forest!
    More ambience is always great, I would really like birds in the game or even crickets/insects. And you could hear them chirp or buzz in the evening or morning. But squirrels are always good too...

    Quote from Gavinski37»
    People will still just farm one food more than the rest (like steak), so it doesn't matter.

    You are right but more crops like corn or tomatoes would add more to the farming part of the game because currently you can only plant carrots, potatoes and wheat. I'm excluding other types of farms like hostile mobs, cow, sugarcane etc...
