Here's a thread so we can compile our pictures of our creations. Also maybe post some more harder recipes, or anything cool you may have found out. I'll post some pictures later of some stuff I built.
I happened to make a compass with some red dust in the center, and an iron ingot on the North, West, East, and South sides of it. ....= = <> = ....= Also not sure what it is, but it looks like a checkers board on the side and a slot for mail perhaps. I surrounded a diamond with wooden planks. [] [] [] [] <>[] [] [] [] Anyone know what it's purpose is?
it's a jukebox. There are 2 records in game, both of which you can spawn since enemy death doesn't work as well as it should in order to get the records. http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Crafting unless you want to discover things by word of mouth
my latest project, Yizelin's Island Adventure: top view of the lodge where you teleport into and out from (taken from the 62 block high diving board: and yes, that is a spongebob statue on the side (sand until ari gives me some sponges to use) and from the inside of the lodge:
Gah I can't connect to the actual minecraft server to log in! I need to finish my town! lol Got the itch to make make make! -Edit, their site seems to be down also, google says a bunch of people are having trouble connecting so I don't think it's just me!
while I can't connect to minecraft.net I am still digging in our server... and digging... and digging.
I have the server set to "offline-mode" meaning it doesn't verify anything with the minecraft servers. As such you should still be able to connect just fine.
Here are a few pics of the things I've built. My house near the spawn point with the tower and lighthouse in the background: Up close to the lighthouse: My number display. It's a set of 9 switches that light up the display for that number. Here it is with all switches off: Switch 4 on: Switch 7 on at night: Inside the works of the display: The inner works of the display are a mess to look at, so I built one circuit above ground to give an idea what's going on. There are 13 of these underground that route between the switches and the back of the display.
