I'd cured 2 villagers - I WISH they would just spawn in a man-made village!
And I didn't know I could fish for ink?! I actually only wanted the ink for dye, and for making nametags to keep my villagers organized!! Although that may not even be possible? Not sure. Thanks for the tip!
I was trying to spawn cows and sheep and stuff on a huge section of grass (basically all the dirt I'd started with on my main island) and still nothing would spawn. I had everything right, 24 blocks from spawn island, above level 64, plenty of light, and still nothing. So I just had to spawn in 2 cows, 2 sheep and 2 chickens, so I could breed and get more. The next in game morning, there were 3 pigs, an extra chicken and a horse with the ones I'd spawned. I know the spawn rate increases once you have a few animals there already, I just don't know why nothing was spawning at first!
i also got a couple of villagers, and they're breeding just fine once I added enough doors. But I'm also having trouble getting squid to spawn in a giant lake I made...
Alright, sorry I haven't been replying... But the map has been updated! The islands are much closer now (200 blocks instead of 1000). I tried to find a way to make sure no progress should be lost, but I found that hard to do. I used MCEdit to move the islands closer, so anyone who wants to save progress can do that as well. (or you can just cheat in the items you got on the old map into version 3.05...)
That's awesome, I'm so excited! 200 will make it much easier on a restart, THANK YOU! XD
Thank you for the tips on the animals!! =D - I'd realized that at first, after breaking down my main island for dirt, that I'd placed grass blocks below level 64, so I'm sure that was my original issue, but I'm still trying to get my first group of animals to spawn now that I've moved them.
Unfortunately I have 0 skills for that stuff, (not to mention terrible luck getting viruses and crap, so I's probably be trying to download the wrong thing anyway. So I'll likely just have to wait (and hope) the map dev will update the map and make the islands closer...
I just had to go and mess up my sand/cactus island.... T_T
Could anyone tell me how I would go about editing the file or whatever to bring the islands closer to the spawn island?? I messed up an island, and would like to start again, but I can't bear the thought of going out 5000 blocks again -_-... I've never edited a file, so is that a complicated thing to change??
Also, has anyone had problems getting friendly animals to spawn?? It could be that I just haven't spent enough time away from my grass section, but just figured I'd ask.
I absolutely love finding a good skyblock map!! It's what got me into minecraft, and I've been hooked ever since
And its really awesome to find a map that's actually current, so THANK YOU! lol
I do have to say, the islands being 1000 blocks away is a bit grindy, and I do hope you'll find a way to tweak that a bit. I wish I could see them far off from the main island, but even 500 away each would be a huge improvement.
And I agree with whoever said about making the goals achievements somehow - but I know next to nothing about all that, so I have no clue how difficult a task that may be. One of my favorite maps had a set island and you'd just put the items in a chest, and it would drop the reward items (unfortunately, that was a 1.8 map, and the command blocks messed up all the rewards T_T)
But again, I REALLY love your map! I'm just about to start heading to my 3rd island
