FOSS gamedev and creative worlds

Hello Everyone!

I have made a skyblock map. All you have to do is extract it into your worlds folder after downloading it & it should be there.

Here are the rules:
1.No flying or speedhack but you can sneak.
2.obey these rules
3.if you die start off were you left off.
4.no using giveme.

What you must do:
1.Create a house (out of any materials)
2.Create a working cobblestone genorator (out of any materials)
3.Create a lake (out of any materials)
4.Create a large sign that says Minetest (out of any materials)
5.Extra challenge :D (you will need the farming mod) Make a suitable farm.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------
That is what you must do!

Here is the download link

why not?

Yeah why not i dont know why

tell us why we shouldn't download PilzAdam

YES!!! tell us now!!! I want to be living above the world but I'm scared to download because of what he said!!! :(

I think that if PilzAdam would advice against using this map, he probably wouldn't have quoted Josh:

I think you are all incredibly stupid. Especially all4one. What PilzAdam was trying to say was please don't start posts with "Hello everyone!". This map is perfectly fine and will do nothing to your games. People like this belong on facebook.

You honestly couldn't answer without being a dick about it?

Ok, that makes sense that he may mean this. But if so, why not start posts with "hello everyone"?

People like what, exactly? People who post rude and inflammatory posts? Oh wait, that was you that did that.

So tell me has anyone tried the map? Do you think i should make more maps? Tell me i need your opinoins :D

Josh, please don't hesitate to make and release all of the maps you want, and please don't pay any attention to certain people who say not to start a post with "hello everyone!" or similar. People lately seem to be forgetting about this concept called "polite company" and this thing called a "greeting".

Guys, please curtail the negative comments - it is not your place to point someone at some other site for acting like a civilized person. This may not be Facebook, but it is also not 4chan.

I gave Josh's "Skyblock" whirl... but got stuck at making a cobble generator.

I watched jordan4ibanez's (aka Hummer313) YouTube video and still no luck.

Then I searched the forums and found this thread, "Cobblestone Generator problem":
http://minetest.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=3091

The link to the obsidian mod listed in the video is broken.

Then I did another forums search and found IPushButton2653's obsidian mod:
http://minetest.net/forum/viewtopic.php?id=1077

After installing the obsidian mod the cobble generator worked.

(For the Minetest newbies - make a folder called "worldmods" in Josh's "Skyblock" world and then copy/past the obsidian mod into that "worldmods" folder. If you want the obsidian mod available to all worlds, copy/paste it into the general "mods" folder which is in the same folder-level as "worlds", "games", etc.)

I'm still plugging along with the game (playing by the rules Josh set forth) and running it under Minetest version 0.4.3. The sneak button is constantly down until I've got more cobble to stand on. :)

The discussion about my post is realy funny!
irksomeduck got the solution:
