Tutorials/Beginner's guide
Created for players who do not know how to begin their Minecraft journey, the Beginner's Guide is a tutorial created to provide a list full of good ways to start! Here, players will learn how to survive their first night in two different formats: in an overview with goals or in a step-by-step instruction. The player can choose which one they want, but both will accomplish the same goal.

Minecreate: Making furniture. Minecraft Blog Playing Minecraft, one thing that I've gained more and more interest in is making furniture that doesn't just look like big chunks of blocks. More realistic looking furniture. It's not as easy as it sounds. With the limited non-block resources finding new ways of using the same building parts can be hard.You have to figure out uses for the stone and wood staircase, the signs, the stone slabs, the fencing and whatever else you might use. Many of my ideas come from looking at other peoples creations here, other minecraft related sites and on the many youtube channels. This blog post is to give YOU some of those ideas when you want to make nice furniture for your huts, houses and castles. I encourage any reader of this post to post something similar to this, showcasing their furniture for others to get inspired and learn from! *Note the crane and the water tower lower down, while not exactly furniture they're still a bit too small to be a separate construction Small bed. Basic bench. Crane.

[Creating Mods]Modding Tutorials: Absolute Beginner [9/3/11] Block - The Lightdirt - Part 2 Oh my, oh my! We're back with part 2! If you happened to miss the first part, go here, and check it out! Well, let's just start off where we left. The coding - Part 2 So, if you remember from last time, we had opened BlockDirt.java, and found this code: package net.minecraft.src;// Decompiled by Jad v1.5.8g. public class BlockDirt extends Block{ protected BlockDirt(int i, int j) { super(i, j, Material.ground); }} We've already covered "package", "comments" and "classes". Quote Curly brackets. protected BlockDirt(int i, int j) Another interesting line. protected Well, we finally reached permissions. public Allows anyone and everything to access the function. Is what's used for this specific function. private A private function can't be called from anywhere outside the class it is written in. BlockDirt What is this?
