I keep running out of food and dieing ): How do i get food, even with lots of grass spread and lit, no food giving animals spawn.
You can put bonemeal on the grass to get seeds, then grow those into wheat, then you can make bread. Or, make a small area of water and a fishing rod and you can catch fish

You could also eat Melons from your Melon Farm, or even eat Rotten Flesh off of Zombies.
Though my inner rp'r doesn't allow me to eat Zombie Meat/Flesh, for obvious reasons :tongue.gif:
No one wants to turn into a Zombie, or get an incurable case of Diarrhea... forever! >_<
Rollback Post to RevisionRollBack
At any given moment those red pixels could be either polkadots or hearts.
First I want to toss a huge thanks out to Noobcrew for this map. Second, I just wanted to post a link to a video series that me and my buddy are making for Skyblock 2.1. If you like it, please "thumbs up" and subscribe. Comment with any advice you have, we'd appreciate it.
I am sorry but this map no longer works in 2.1. I made a cobble generator but the ice kept on freezing. 1st time, I was sorting the water when the ice froze, suffocating me and carrying the bucket into the lava. 2nd time, when mining the cobble, the ice froze. The lava cam and killed along with the bucket. 3rd time, I was mining the cobble, when the water froze. I smashed it and it turned the lava into obsidian. FIX IT NOW!!
Put a block above the ice and break it, then stop talking ********
Why when i try to play with my friend he can't destroy block ? i hate this ...on another surv i can't on this only he can't...
You need to make you and your friend ops. To do this open up the ops.txt file in your server folder, and add your user name on one line, and your friends on the next. Restart the server, and it's all good. Also if you want to make people ops in game (once you are an op) just type /op <playername>.
Minecraft RC2: When i place the ice block and destroy it, the water freezes after a few seconds. That makes it almost impossible to make a cobblestone generator.
EDIT: Please, 2 ice blocks so it's possible to make infinite water?
Put a block OVER the ice block and it WONT FREEZE.
Just how I state in that ep of my playthrough.
Is it that hard to grasp? COME ON people thats basic minecraft. You're in a tundra biome, PUT A ROOF OVER YOUR WATER and it wont freeze!
Where are all the items at? : (2.0/2.1)
All of the items in 2.0/2.1 are divided among the islands. When you start you will just have the land of dirt, a tree and a chest with lava and an ice block for a coble generator. Make your way to the sand island to find a few more of the items. Make a Nether portal and enter to find the rest.
Where to find the 2nd ice block for infinite water spring : (2.0/2.1)
In 2.1/2.0 of the map the 2nd ice block is IN THE NETHER!
Note: In 1.9Pre5, you can make an infinite water spring with just one block of ice. Any water below a ‘fall’ of water will turn into a water source block. This as reported by Jeb is being removed/fixed!
How to make a Cobble Generator:
Take the long end of the island and dig a 4 long, 1 deep trench. Now take out one of the two center blocks. Place the ice block in the end next to the center block you dug, cover it so it don’t refreeze and break it, The water will flow into the hole and not spread. Now place the lava into the other end this should leave 1 space from the lava and the hole the waters going to. Cobble will form in that space.
= the water flowing from the sorce block
Just with 1 block over the water so it doesn’t freeze back up if playing in 1.9.
How to light your portal without a flint and steel: (2.0/2.1)
First there is NO flint and steel, or means to make one in this map.
Put wood planks on both sides of the bottom of the nether portal (NOT INSIDE IT), then block off a small area in front to set the lava. The lava will catch the planks on fire, as the fire spreads from the front to back it will light the portal.
THIS IS REPORTED TO NO LONGER WORK IN 1.9PRE5 FOR SOME! Could be something with Lava had been tweaked as it had with the water. Some have gotten it to work, other’s not, it may be just where the lava gets set.
How to stop your water from turning back into ice: (1.9pre)
Put a block –ANY HEIGHT- over where your water is and it won’t freeze back up. Be creative, make a well! Or an indoor spring!
How to get below your land (Also how to get below the Sand Island in 2.0/2.1):
Make a watervater. Make sure you have a means back UP before you do this (ladders, stairs, something): Place water either on the edge or along the side of a hole (MAKE SURE TO COVER IT IN 1.9 SO IT DON’T FREEZE) then with a few bits of cobble ride the water down. As you’re floating down start placing the cobble along the underside of the land making pillar downwards while scooting to the edge of the water for air. Once down how far you want swim back up and place one block beneath your feet. Either return up to remove the water or if you can reach it from below do it there. Make sure you have away back up!
How to make a wheat farm:
Put a bone in your crafting table to get 3 bone meal. Use ONE AT A TIME on grass to grow tall grass. Break the tall grass to yield seeds. If you get none, use the next bone meal.
Recommend saving at least ONE of them for the melon farm. (Read next)
How to make a melon farm:
Put your melon slice into your crafting table to get seeds. You need at least 2 blocks of farmed land for it to grow, one for the stem, one for the melon to form on. The melon will not form if there is no farmed land for it to grow on.
Recommend saving at least ONE bone meal to use on the stem. This will end up being your main food supply as wheat grows slow and you need 3 for 1 bread. Where as 1 melon can give you 3-5 slices and can renew from the same fully grown stem. (sometimes rather quickly)
How to make wool from string:
Put String in a 2x2 pattern in your crafting box.
= string.
How to make animals spawn:
In 1.8, animals do still respawn as the code for breading is not yet added, but they spawn rather rarly. You just need grass and to move at least 24 blocks away for them to (maybe) pop into existents,
In 1.9 they will not spawn, they come pre-loaded with the chunks and once killed off there gone, although in the pre-releases there is a sort of bug that rarely happens that can spawn animals if chunks get reloaded and they have what is needed to spawn.
I.e. you cut out the chunks in MC edit or such... play in game, chunks arn't there. You build out and now there’s land/grass there. You move away, come back, bug may rarely happen where chunk loads as if it's the first time and thus pops the animals there if there is grass for them to spawn on. (This only works once, once the animals are dead there dead)
Again that is a RARE BUG in 1.9. Pre 1-4
In pre 5 Animal’s see to be spawning on their own again. This is most likely another bug.
How to make mobs spawn (Including Pigmen in the nether):
You have to have a platform or a mob trap that is –at minimum- of 24 blocks away from you. This includes above or below you. Making a drop trap 24 blocks up (that is the bottom of the trap) is high enough to kill mobs when they fall. If you do –not- want endermen make sure you have a roof over your platform that gives a 2 block high clearance sense endermen are 3 blocks tall.
Pigmen will spawn if done in the Nether (2.1/2.2)
How to get Gold Ingots: (2.1/2.2)
You will have to go to the nether and make a platform/mob trap to allow Pigmen to spawn. Killing them yields gold nuggets that can then be crafted into a gold ingot by placing the nuggets in a 3x3 pattern on the crafting table.
How to make a SIMPLE mob drop trap:
The one shown in my play though (link below) is a simple, yet very effective design. It uses –NO WATER- or sighs to push mobs around.
Making a stone tower 24 blocks up. I made a 9x9 platform. (in my video, I rounded the corners for looks) adding one torch to mark the center. Then added walls around it 2, or 3 blocks high if you want endermen then a roof with a torch on top. I then broke out the center 3x3 blocks (plus the torch) and then dug my way back down.
Pretty much:
The narrow platform for mobs to stand on, 3 wide all the way around makes it a cramped space and mobs will keep pushing each other off. This gives you a LOT of items. Now larger traps may yield more mobs and thus more items but not like you’ll be using up every item asap.
Note that 24 blocks is not enough to kill endermen! But it lowers their health and makes them easier to handle. Adding some sort of border that they can’t walk over seems to keep them from wondering randomly all over.
I noticed that collecting Birch Logs is a Challenge, where do I get the Birch Saplings from? Or are they in the Nether? (I made the Portal last night, but I haven't gone in it yet >_< Going to go in when I get home from work.)

Wait, I have Version 2.0, and it says a change is that I can travel to the nether. I got obsidian, but where do I get flint and iron? :Flint and Steel:

once again... you must use the lava to your advantage!
you can remove the 10 blocks of obsidian and replace it with 10 redstone. You can make obsidian with redstone. here is a vid i verified on 1.8.1 and RC2 :
You might even add a time element to the challenge. have the redstone control a time circuit that will, if your not quick enough, cause the sand to fall. so instead of putting the redstone in a box, you have to recover it from the circuit. then properly build the gate 1 block of obsidian at a time.
also:
Now they have only 1 block of sand that must be duped. just thinking in an evil challenging way.

Wait a sec... YOU EXPECT ME TO HACK REDSTONE INTO THIS?!?! :blink.gif:
Wtf. I downloaded the zip, and extracted it. I couldn't encrypt it or something, and when I got on it all I had was a lava bucket and ice block. Im quite sure Im supposed to have melons or something else like that.... help?

No, as a minimum, replace the obsidian with redstone and "build" the nether portal 1 block at a time. seem the sand dup was removed in RC2. I was talking as an upgrade to the difficulty factor. Skyblock 2.3 or something.
you have 1 lava source, and water available to you. When you get to the sand island, grab the 10 redstone. place them in the correct order. Build the obsidian in it's correct place 1 block at a time. then the lava can resume your cobblegen or mob knife. 10 blocks obsidian with only 1 lava source block, and no diamond.

so, is there anyway this map can be played online with a friend?

Ok, so i know now how to play on the map online, but the problem is that when i respawn i just fall in nothing!
like if i respawned in mid-air
what can i do?
