You have to be able to know how to duplicate your one brain cell
To start of, I'm guy who played minecraft for the fun of redstone creations and experimenting with them. Ever since I got a new laptop, minecraft was too resource heavy. I switched to MineTest for the sole purpose of sheer amount of mods and less resource intensive on my laptop. This was about a year ago. Ever since then, I've been playing on and off from servers due to lag issues, lack of right mods, and filled with players who don't even have the ability to duplicate their one brain cell. I was an avid skyblock players in minecraft and I've been in search of the right skyblock since. For unknown reason, this popped up at the right time, and I am actually glad it did because this is how skyblock is supposed to be designed.
The purpose of SkyBlock is to go from 1 to 2 to 4 to 8 to 16 to infinity; start from one item to be able to craft every imaginable recipe you want; and because SkyBlock is in an empty space you want to have factories to automate your stuff. This does exactly that. But in order to have a factory of automation, you have to be able to know how to duplicate your one brain cell. Its all about mitosis/meiosis on a coding level. Granted to fully utilize this, I should probably learn Lua coding to be able to fully use Lua controllers to how I want it. But it is something that will come with time.
But yeah, I do not see any recipes that are broken or cannot be obtained. Buckets is pretty easy to get, takes some level of skills though. You need to be able to work for multi-step process to obtain one specific starting resource before you can duplicate it. The challange is to be able to find out how to get there.
Love the idea and most likely will be here for the long run. Thanks Kimapr (:
The Mobs look nothing like the ones in the banner/cover image
They look much better, with new textures and models.
I expected to see the mobs displayed above. Instead, I see the usual enemy mobs to some of the more terrifying creatures you encounter deep in the caves.
I like the Mese Monster most of all, it's one of the few hostile flying mobs to grace the game. What makes it better is that it also shoots
projectiles at you. Of all the mobs in any mod, this one can both reach you and fire at you within it's firing range.
If you like danger, this mod gives it to you.
Edit: The cover image has been updated showing the latest look of the monsters that are seen in the game.
I've tried the X Bows mod before this one, and ran into a problem where the arrows in that mod wouldn't fire.
It just consumed the ammo.
However, seeing this mod is a fork off of that one I had to see if this one worked.
And it does work! Now I can fire arrows off at enemies and monsters within caves or at night.
I'm definitely keeping this one in my mod list, thanks so much!
One mod conflict I have come across is that mobs from the Animalia mod, when shot, have absolutely MASSIVE arrows jutting out of them.
I've tested other mobs from other mods that I'm using and the arrows are all normal sized. My guess is that the Animalia mobs have something that scales them or their dimensions up causing this visual issue. Nothing to do with this mod.
This amount of work undoubtably deserves a like from me and from literally anyone else visiting this page. Well done, I love survival that involves technology, even if it's simple.
I really like the biomes that are added by this mod. They look good and appear to fit well with the default Minetest texture pack. The only issue I have experienced is tree leaves don't decay when the wood is mined. They just remain floating, which makes cleanup a bit of a chore. Other than that, I really like these biomes.
UPDATE: Leaf blocks now decay with a recent update. Thank you!
This modpack adds a lot of really nice decorations. The bell has a very rich ring to it. It's so satisfying to ring it. Haha.
I do have a couple of suggestions. Is there any way to slow down the spawning of the bee hives? I have a small area of apple trees and a great number of them have multiple hives on them, and they keep coming back. I think the hives should be a little sparse. Also, the bee buzzing sound is heard by multiple players on our server, even if some of the players aren't near the bees.
i am VERY excited for future updates! this game is... GOOD! XD, it still has SOME problems, but if you keep up the good work i think this game could replace minecraft if it got some popularity, the same with mineclone 2, Awesome job!
This mod is essential for Minetest gameplay, as the nights are quite dark. Simply craft a torch and you'll be able to get around at night and see where you are going.
No, I did not click the "recommended" button by mistake, this tutorial is indeed fine.
But... Are we really asking newbies to download a tutorial? Where is the tutorial for that?
Makers, let's not forget that most players don't want to make their own game. They want a good game out-of-the-box and maybe just customize it or extend it after a while.
Imagine for yourself, someone tells you that "you have Notepad and you can turn it into a half-decent IDE by installing two dozens of plugins; you can be up to speed in a week or so. If you have issues with plugins fighting each other, seek help on the forum"... Chances are that you'll say "No thanks, I'll use VSCode".
"You have MTG and then you can make your own game by downloading mods, checkout out our huge ecosystem" obviously won't fly with most newcomers. It used to be Ok when users had to install mods and "subgames" manually, but not anymore (those people are modders now). To be fair, this is thanks to the efforts of the MT team and contributors. Don't let one old apple that turned bad spoil the barrel.
This tutorial should be shipped instead of MTG. Add to it a couple of lines to tell the players what to do from there at the end (how to get an actual game), then we are good and done.
While i've yet to explore everything this mod has. Seems to be well put together and creates a great athmoshpere and liveliness, even if some parts needs polish.
Biggest annoyance are birds and their towers of nests, and how they seem to stop at nothing to put their nests in one location.
Still a great addition to the game, and a mod i will likely continue playing with.
suggestions
jumpnade (ctf-like )
tornade (spins whoever it hits into a tornado which sends then spining and flying through the air in random direction )
blackholenade (ctf-like )
weight-nade attaches weight to a person so they cannot jump
scatternade variant of each of those (scatters multiple smaller nades when hit that have weaker effects like only jumping on slaps with weightnade or only pulling the player to center with blackholenade
tactical nade : lower damge but quickly able to throw and longer distances
nake ( like a nuke but gives everyone in range radiation poisoning + destroys blocks )
bomb-o-nade version of each of those that damages blocks like weightnade version might collabse structures without much support blackhole nade might pull in some blocks and scatter nades might replace blocks with weaker variants of them
what separates this mod from normal cave realms mod? i'm very confused since these mods have very much in common but are developed by two different people
nice althought minetest needs texture packs which are less mine**** inspired n
minetest already has many texture packs that attempt to make it look like minecraft althought the only thing that minetest has that is even remotely close to minecraft is maybe the mineclone 2 subgame minetest game has nice and clean textures which i would like to see improved by texture packs rather than having texture packs that just look like a copy of mine**** textures althought that being said this pack still looks nice :D
the mod crafting engridients should be a optional dependency and the mod should register other recipes if the mod extramaterials is used (optional dependency ) and maybe of none of those mods is used provide somthing like a circular saw to create the blocks
The reason I really love this mod is for when I am creating other mods that affect maximum hp. It is super easy to increase/decrease the maximum hp, because without this, the hp_max is always at the maximum level.
Nice start, looks promising, although time consuming
The beginning can be quite a grind - expect a few hours of resource gathering and eyeballing the recipe guide for a path forward.
Like pretty much all Skyblock games, your hand won't be held, so you have to follow the recipe guide and build a strategy on that. And oh, boy... it's not easy to begin with. But once you craft some resources, you can use quicker recipes to multiply them, which is welcome. In such cases, make sure you manage your inventory properly so you don't have to take the long path to getting more of some resource. :)
I found 2 issues, one of them actually breaking the progression at this time. I filed bug reports in the issue tracker for both. The bad one is being unable to craft bronze ingots, which is an intermediary step towards getting a bucket, so you can later get water and lava. So right now making a cobblestone generator doesn't seem possible, and it took me a few hours to get here. :P Ooof, and I was actually close.
Thanks for the game, I'll follow the updates and resume my progress once bronze will become available.
pleasant but toxic
What to download. Textures top but colors
lol calculator made
I liked messing around in fashion
Interesting mod
Many animals. I hope the mod is not abandoned

A suitable copy for minecraft version 1.12
Suitable breed for minecraft version 1.12. Always loved this version
Works in a heavily modded game
I've tried the X Bows mod before this one, and ran into a problem where the arrows in that mod wouldn't fire. It just consumed the ammo.

Why?
This amount of work undoubtably deserves a like from me and from literally anyone else visiting this page. Well done, I love survival that involves technology, even if it's simple.
So tasty :P
At this time of the year I end up craving pumpkin snacks, good timing and some tasty recipes :P
cool vannila + texturepack
oh yes my favorite way things look wired forget about weird in the description also burn the witch in the description as it is which :P
Very Nice Biomes

Anyhow, great modpack! This one is a keeper.
This is awesome!

always wanted background music
Epic soundtrack, but I would like more calm music
Best Cartoon Texture Pack
Very well done. I always play with them
An Essential Mod
This mod is essential for Minetest gameplay, as the nights are quite dark. Simply craft a torch and you'll be able to get around at night and see where you are going.
This game has no place in ContentDB

Nice mod!
I was going to create mod like this, but it was too late! :) Amazing mod for modders and world creators, it is compatible with WorldEdit.
Please also add 'node/item ID' to the UI.
Overall great mod
While i've yet to explore everything this mod has. Seems to be well put together and creates a great athmoshpere and liveliness, even if some parts needs polish. Biggest annoyance are birds and their towers of nests, and how they seem to stop at nothing to put their nests in one location.
Still a great addition to the game, and a mod i will likely continue playing with.
Ideas
lava waterfall that should flow into the lava pool and not spread everywhere
lava waterfall,lava river, width and depth should not exceed 10 nodes
good but more content is needed
suggestions jumpnade (ctf-like ) tornade (spins whoever it hits into a tornado which sends then spining and flying through the air in random direction ) blackholenade (ctf-like ) weight-nade attaches weight to a person so they cannot jump

balanced hardcore
not for servers though
very helpful
Very helpful for creative and for server maintenance
nice
Very nice for make tunnel and brige for advtrain , but too for make street
always very useful
It gives you more and more protection as you progress through the game by building more resistant armor
it's good, i think
what separates this mod from normal cave realms mod? i'm very confused since these mods have very much in common but are developed by two different people
kind of useless
infinity wood can already be archived by farming however infinity SUS does currently not exist in minetest ;P

generic alternative to castle gates
for anyone wanting doors like the ones the castle gates mod provides but more generic this is a good alternative
nice simple texture pack but
could you add support for the backed clay & space_travel & techage mod ?
Easy to Mod
