Follow us on Twitter, @MCBCon, for more info on what will be going on, exact server opening times and what events are when! Big Giant Ideas How any experience can be created in Minecraft By: CDFDMAN It all started with some down time and an empty corner. As Mineathon 2014 was quickly approaching, I was flying around on the server with little to do. I noticed an empty corner in the lobby and began to build a stage. “Why not?”, I said to myself. “It’ll be a place to hold an opening ceremony or something, who knows.” With the stage complete, there was something missing. Anyone who knows me, knows I’m obsessed with stage lighting; I have been ever since I was a kid. I hopped in a call with my friend SpiderRobotMan and asked him if he had any ideas on controlling color changing beacons. These were a recently added feature in the game and had just been updated to instantly change color. An hour later (and a few villagers) we had beacons that we could program to change colors. I thought, “Wow this is awesome. What else can we do?” Eight hours more and we had the first ever vanilla light show in Minecraft. It featured fireworks, enderdragon beams, and confetti. What started as a time wasting stage build ended up being way larger, and was ultimately recognized by Searge and Marc of Mojang! Whether your idea is big to start with or grows from a tiny sapling to a jungle tree, nearly anything from the real world or your imagination can be created in Minecraft. We as creators are no longer confined to the blocks of vanilla or the sweet sounds of C418. With resource packs, command blocks, and custom models; nearly any experience can be created. Granted it won’t be a 1 to 1 copy of what you are imagining, but you can still make the general idea. A perfect example of this is the enderdragon beams in my light shows. They aren’t what a light beam would look like in the real world but they are close enough to where a player can recognize it as a light beam and enjoy it when they see it as a part of a light show. The technology of Minecraft doesn’t have to hold your ideas back anymore. Dare to dream big giant ideas and most importantly, go out there and make them a reality. New Map: Big Giant Lightshow by: CDFDMAN, Sounas, SpiderRobotMan A year in the making, I present to you the Big Giant Lightshow! Originally made for Minecraft Realms, this vanilla 1.11 light show is a 20 minute concert experience that is sure to entertain! The map includes: - A concert experience unlike any other in Minecraft. - Never before seen special effects. - Control the cameras at the concert by switching between inventory slots! - Amazing music from Big Giant Circles! This map can be found under the experiences category on Realms or on my YouTube channel /CDFDMAN. Cinematic Tools in Minecraft Mapmaking: The Cutscene Generator and Transitional Fades by The Redstone Scientist (TRS) The greatest story-based maps of the last few years all share a few things in common. One of the most obvious commonalities is their cinematic quality. Think about it: Terra Swoop Force, Unsighted Shadow, Exodus Season 2, CDF's Testing Facility series, and many more all drew our attention in unique ways that further elevated them past the realm of "just another map." Cinematic techniques allow us to almost forget that we're playing something in Minecraft. Cutscenes, voice acting, transitions, all of these things which minecraft doesn't naturally have, when added, have a profound effect on the player's experience. It pulls them further into the world of the game and, it can't be denied, produces a "That's pretty dang cool" reaction. I'm going to show you a few tools I've made that can help you get your map counted among the greatest by not only enhancing the "cool" factor, but FAR more importantly, enhancing your story as well.

    minecraft volume beta download free Minecraft volume beta download free. This is the second part to the official soundtrack to the most popular video game in recent history. Critics like to compare the style of my album to Erik Satie, Roedelius, and Brian Eno. Aphex Twin also once said I stole his style. The big difference of Volume Beta is that the tone is both more positive and at times very dark. Some of the songs even have percussion, which is something that was a complete rarity with Volume Alpha. For example “Taswell” or “Aria Math”. A bunch of the songs are VERY long. “Alpha”, being 10 minutes, while “The End” clocks in at 15 minutes. And a lot of the “creative mode” songs are at least around 8 minutes in length. Additionally, this soundtrack contains the collectible records, which are little vinyl songs you can find in Minecraft, the game. With the exception of Cat. That song you can find on the previous soundtrack, Volume Alpha. “Ki,” like “Key,” on the previous album is an introduction to the album. But this time it’s not quiet, somber and welcoming, but dark and foreboding. “Alpha” is a medley of past songs. It acts as the score that plays when you “beat” Minecraft, but it also acts as a celebration of past music from Volume Alpha. “Blind Spots” is the first song I wrote with the clear intention of having a unique soundtrack for Minecraft’s “creative mode”. I tried to create a piece that doesn’t particularly change much, but keeps reiterating on itself, like a constant remixing of its core theme.

Minecraft has been one of the most unusual success stories in gaming in recent memory — within less than two years, it went from being one of many small, independent games released and discussed in an online indie game development community (in this case, the TIGsource forums; Persson, 2011b) to becoming a world-wide phenomenon that has earned its creator accolades such as the Independent Game Festival Seumas McNally Grand Prize award in 2011 and, by some accounts, millions of dollars in revenue (Lynley, 2011). Minecraft is a game that seems to have struck a chord with gamers in a relatively short period of time, yet is one that has changed significantly from release to release, as can be seen by the wry comment above by the game’s primary designer, Markus “notch” Persson. ! 1! Minecraft is an alluringly moving target to try to pin down, and so in order to assess how it is “well-played” — well-designed and iteratively well-redesigned, in this particular case — we need to think more broadly about the approach Persson (and his company Mojang Specifications) have taken toward the development of the game in addition to its formal game mechanics.
