Feel Free to record yourself and your friends as you play this map for YouTube! I would very much like to see them as it would help me find any bugs that may appear! Just be sure to link your video to this page in the description!
Resource pack is extremely quiet - even extracting the intro.ogg and playing it outside the game I can't hear what's being said... suggest using Audacity or something to amplify and reupload.
Way too many elves in 'wave 1', and they hit kinda hard. Consider building up the difficulty after wave 1, where the player is learning the terrain and has no gear.
I recommend turning on keepInventory, or at least make it optional maybe as an easy/hard toggle.
Sadly, on wave 2, snowmen can fall through the ground (Mojang bug) and be unkillable, thus no way to pass the wave. Also, I got a few elves somehow stuck UNDER the tree and didn't have enough emeralds to hit them with a splash potion.
Waves feel way too long (although admittedly I'm doing this in single player).

Hey Thanks for the Feedback!
Oh Keepinventory isn't on? I must have forgot to put it back on right when I was fixing a few last minute bugs. (It's supposed to be on) I'll look into figuring out a way to keep them from getting under the tree(You're meaning the Christmas tree in the center right?) I originally recorded the files in audacity. So it shouldn't be too hard to fix. Yeah in Single Player waves can take a long time. The map is really meant for at least two.
I will fix these bugs and any others that are found first thing in the morning!
Thanks again for the feedback! I expected there to be a few game-breaking bugs I had missed.

Not sure they are game-breaking, but I do think a few tweaks and you'll really have a fun little Christmas minigame here!
I'm tentatively planning to...
Upload my full 1.5 hour LP unedited as a private YouTube video for you to see, and my patrons.
Then I will work on editing it down to highlights for a formal review video, for release some time by Dec 23. At that time, I'll also publish my official rating based on any fixes you've been able to make - that way folks will not have to see the minor issues.

Just watched it and it helped me find and fix a majority of issues and bugs. I also added a few things to it in the update I just released. Thanks for helping me out! Most of the things you pointed out in the video were actually bugs that needed to be fixed! I will probably balance the shop a bit more in the next update after I hear a bit more feedback about it. Merry Christmas!
Thank you Anelka Williams for showcasing the map! Very hilarious video! (The map has been updated to fix a ton of bugs that made your playthrough so hard)
I just downloaded it myself and it works fine. You're putting it in the minecraft resource pack folder right?
There shouldn't be a need to open it except for when you're taking it out of the .zip file.
Has anyone found any major bugs? I would like to fix them as soon as possible! If there is anything you find strange, such as shop balancing, insane difficulty or just anything in general, be sure to let me know! Thanks in advance!
Thanks again for all the downloads and views everyone! After just a week this map already has just over 500 downloads! Thank y'all so much! Happy Holidays!
Don't forget to comment and give me some feedback!
Hi, I would love to play this map! It seems really fun, but when i go into it, I spawn in like a red, green white square with i think trapdoors, near some jukeboxes, and i see the house where were supposed to start at, and when i break into that, the sound tester doesnt work and and when i try to click start the map it doesnt do anything, do you have any ideas on how i may fix this? I really want to play, the elf's look so cute! <3

Are you playing in 1.8? If you are playing in an older version this could explain why its not working. I don't remember using any jukeboxes in the map so not sure what you are seeing. You are supposed to spawn where you did because it teleports you to the actual spawn.
Make sure you are in the right version. That will probably solve the problem! If not, let me know and I'll look into it soon!
Yeah i was playing in 1.8, but was trying it out on a multiplayer sever, and that may be why, since as soon as i threw it into my saves folder to play single player, it fixed itself, spawning in the right place, and elf sounds working xD So I was able to play! Which was really fun! Would have loved to play with my friend, but yeah =p

Curse PremiumOnce I bought the diamond sword, it was a ton easier. I only used stone (because it had looting) and diamond - never bothered with others.
Infinity bow was good, but makes it easy to shoot elves way out of their detection range since the map is so big.
The present was EXTREMELY laggy. And I'm on a computer with 16gb RAM. I don't think it will be playable on a server...?

Fixed the present by making it smaller and updating less often. It's still there but at a much smaller and more playable level.

The only .zip that needs to be opened is the one that holds the map, the resource zip and the readme file.
Hopefully this will work

You don't have to take the extract the contents of the resource .zip file. Just throw the resource .zip file directly into your resource pack folder.

Elf Trouble 'Christmas' is the resource pack. This does not need to be opened. Simply place this one into the minecraft resource pack folder.
