Pictures from the March Minecraft session:
I didn’t really have a building project in mind, so I flew around for a while taking pictures.
The current state of the mountain, lit up at night.
A top-down view of terraced land in the rain. With, I think, a cave entrance as well?
Looks like these days if a cave roof has loose sand then the sand sprinkles down from it.
Tracks next to Roger’s abandoned church.
A view of my mountain buildings, Dan’s mountain building, and Roger’s church.
A top-down view of the back of the mountain.
A winter moon over the mountain.
Steve joined us for the first time in a while, and he was flying around over the train tracks looping from the city. Then he reported something odd, so I went to take a train and follow him; it turns out that some kind of massive glitch had occurred and replaced a chunk of the lake near the city with a jungle biome. It cut through some buildings and the train tunnel; bad enough, it would have been worse if it had been right in the city!
A cow blocking my way when I went to investigate.
Here’s where the tracks ended, Steve had already put a glass wall in place to hold off the water.
Here’s what it looked like up top, with a forest sprouted in the middle of the water.
It’s cutting through the glass castle and the train tunnel.
The fire palace was cut in half.
The tower with the eagle had a quarter removed. (Quite neatly, I should add!)
Here’s the bottom part of that tower, with the lava escaping from its glass enclosure.
The view from inside the glass castle.
Steve and I started working on rebuilding the train tunnel; unfortunately, I don’t think I quite understood Minecraft fluid dynamics, so my solution for rebuilding didn’t quite work. But hopefully I can get that done this month.
Dan was working on a pit near the bottom of his stairs:
A dark, deep hole in the sand; if you squint, there’s a figure at the bottom.
Another view, this time during daytime.
Here’s Dan working at the bottom of the pit.
Those pictures were from early on, the pit got a lot fancier. I’m actually not sure it’s the same pit in the pictures below as in the one above; I assume it is but I don’t have any hard evidence for that and the size is different so it might not be?
Now the pit has vines and colors.
The bottom of the pit is yellow.
There are colored stripes on the walls on the top half of the pit.
Here’s the view from the top.
It actually gets a little wider (with stairstep walls?) right under the colored stripes.
And Pat and his wife (whose name I am blanking on, I apologize!) were working on the floating city, in particular on the area with floating trees.
A glass pool with a terrace, some flowers, and floating trees nearby.
Here’s a view of the flowers from the side.
And a closeup of the flowers and the wall they’re next to.
A path through the floating trees.
A side view of the whole area.
