~60% done with new map. Progress going well!

Hey guys, just wanted to give you a heads up: 3 out of 4 dungeons in my new map are completed! That puts me at about 60% of release. Why not 75% you ask? Well:

- The final dungeon is a bit longer/complex than the others.
- There is still a lot of cosmetic work to be done to the map overall
- Secret (5) and bonus (20?) chests need to be placed
- Even though I have the story planned out, I still need to write out all the notes.
- After all this, play testing.

So thats where the extra ~15-20% is going: all the logistics after the map is built. But don't worry, the story in this one will be well worth the wait ;)

And to hold you over, here's a few screens of the "Mind" dungeon:















Also stay tuned, I'm uploading a new redstone guide. It should be up very soon! Be sure to subscribe to my Youtube channel and check it out!

Single Player Commands is back! Woooo

simo_415 over on the MineCraft forums recently updated his Single Player Commands mod for 1.3. What does that mean? I'm back up and running at full steam! Progress on dungeon 3/4 is going well, and I'll maybe post a video or screen shots when I finish it up.

In the mean time, if you guys are wanting some adventure map action, I HIGHLY recommend this one:

Gourd Avenger (Adventure Map) [By Akito12345]

The puzzles and scenery are very creative and the story is excellent as well. He's already got a sequel up so you'll have plenty of game time! Give them a shot, you won't be disapointed.

Slow goings...

Since the 1.3 update, many mods broke. A lot of them have been updated (MCedit), but one in particular, "Single Player Commands", has not, which has brought my progress on the map to a temporary halt :( . I can still build certain things...but definitely not at the same speed as before, which is frustrating. I will be putting any major sections of the map on hold until "Single Player Commands" is up and running again.

Let's hope for a quick update!

PS, This is in no way directed at the mod creators. I don't expect all mods developed freely by the community to be 100% working on patch day. Thank you all for your tireless efforts to make MineCraft more enjoyable!
