:) Oh wow, that stone house is going to be really big. I’m happy to see that crafting is starting to get a easier for you. It seems to be making sense more quickly than when you first started :D Tips for this video: 1. Papyrus for making paper can be found growing along the seashore. You just have to travel along it long enough to find it. 2. I’ve seen you run into the “no recipes” message a lot when you’re clicking on something in the crafting section. What this means is, that item is something that you can’t make inside the crafting box. You have to either collect it from the world, or in the case of wheat and cotton, you have to grow it from seeds. That’s why things like wheat, cotton, sand, bush stems, and tree leaves don’t have any recipes to create it. But that doesn’t mean there isn’t a way to get it, you just have to find it first. 3. If you really want something that looks like a table, most people will put a piece of fence and then a slab on top. 4. The game is technically not supposed to let you do it, but that blackout screen is what happens when you accidentally place a block inside the same space as your head. 5. Leaves can be burned in a furnace! So if you start to get too many leaves, maybe you can make some glass or melt cobblestone or something. (Also, if you melt cobblestone in a furnace, it turns into plain/normal stone, and then you can use it to make stone bricks and stone blocks, which look different from regular stone and cobblestone. I think they look pretty nice) 6. Don’t forget to dig for coal every now and then so you can make more torches! :) Gotta have that nice bright light

Torches and stone tools and a chest!!! <3 Yay! That will be so useful as you go on! :D The house looks beautiful all lit up with torches. I love what you did with the glass windows and stuff. Are you going to try to find a different kind of wood for the forest house? Don’t forget, you can also use the tree blocks to build something too, if you like how they look. It can be a little tricky to find your way around in a game like this. If you plan on going far away from your beach house, maybe you can make a path with the sand or stone or something as you go, so you can find it again later? Here comes the list :P 1. Because the furnace is made of stone, the game treats it like a stone block. So you have to use a pickaxe to pick it up. 2. You don’t really need a shovel for dirt or sand unless you’re digging a huge amount of it at once and want it to be faster, but gravel is a MAJOR pain to dig without one. You can do it, but it takes, like…several seconds per block. The shovel is definitely not a tool that’s SUPER important like the pickaxe, but carrying one around with you just in case you run into gravel is a good idea. And gravel itself can be nice to use to make pathways sometimes, so it’s nice to collect it every now and then. 3. The hoe definitely isn’t important right now, but if you ever want to make wool, you have to farm cotton, and that’s what you can use the hoe for. But until you get to that point, don’t worry about it. 4. This is less of a “playing the game” tip and more of a “just an idea” tip: Leaves can make a pretty decoration sometimes, like if you want to make a hedge or something. Or if you want something that looks like a bush, but without having to actually grow a bush. 5. Keep in mind, some of the cooler items and materials are found from exploring and stuff. Different kinds of trees for different colors of wood, for example, and different colors of sand (which can be crafted into sandstone, and sandstone doesn’t fall) 6. You’re not at a point where you really *need* to do this yet, but eventually you might want to make a mine to go down into the earth for different metals. That’s how you get those special ores like copper and iron and eventually, if you dig down far enough, diamonds and mese (the yellow gems; those are REALLY far down though, so this would probably be pretty far into the future, I just want to give you a heads-up that that’s something you might want to eventually do)
@EG-cm5th3 ай бұрын
Ooh, nice roof design there! Have you thought about what you might want to build besides the house or are you just super focused on the house right now? Tips: 1. The floating slabs thing is not a bug, though it’s definitely weird the first time you run into it! What’s happening is this: each block, no matter what size it is, takes up a full block of space as far as the game is concerned. Some things, like slabs and doors, can be placed in different positions inside that block of space because they don’t actually take up a full block, but they still register as a full block to the game itself. So, when you were putting a slab on top of another slab, the game was like “oh, a full block on top of a full block!” and since the slabs only take up half a block of space, it puts some air in between and makes the block look like it’s floating. 2. You seemed a little bit down when you discovered you needed coal to make a torch…But the thing is, you actually have a piece of coal already! You got it while you were digging for stone over in the digging hole you made, and there’s some more over there too. Coal is found in those stone blocks that have the little black lines in them. Torches do not automatically light up while you’re holding them, by the way-you have to place them on something before they will do anything. 3. There are no sheep in the game unless you have a mod for it, but there is a way to get wool without a sheep! You use cotton, which you can get by farming cotton seeds if you find them. 4. Sadly, there is no furniture that comes with the game itself. (At least not without modding it in. Even Minecraft doesn’t have furniture in the traditional sense) But what most people do to solve this is you can use the blocks that you have available to create things that *look* like furniture! For instance, a lot of people like to use stairs to represent benches and chairs, and you can create something that looks like a table by putting a slab on top of a fence block. 5. You can turn sand into sandstone. :) Put four sand blocks into the crafting box in a square.

Don’t worry about trying to remember all of it at once, just maybe pick out a couple of things to remember that are important to what you want to do next time. I just hope they actually help instead of making things more confusing or something…let me know if there’s ever anything you actually *want* to know more about, or that I need to explain differently so it makes more sense. One of my favorite things to build are underground houses, where I find a small cave and then expand it a little bit and maybe change the stone blinds into something else. (I’m not telling you to make one, I’m just sharing) I don’t think I’ve ever actually tried making a house on the beach before. Maybe I’ll have to give it a shot. :)

I made this comment last night, but when I checked here this morning I didn’t see my comment, so maybe it didn’t post. Just in case, I’ll send it again, but I don’t know if this is accidentally a repeat. First of all: Good job so far with the house! I like the windows and stuff. I think every good beach house needs windows so you can enjoy the nice view. There is no such thing as “the right materials” (as long as you aren’t trying to use a block that falls down like sand for the roof or something) so you’re doing fine! :) As usual, here’s some tips and more specific commentary from as I’m watching you play. Good luck! 1. If you use cobblestone (the same stuff you used to make the furnace), you can make a stone axe and a stone pickaxe, which are stronger and chop things faster than the wooden tools. You make a stone axe and a stone pickaxe exactly the same way as you make the wood versions, but you use cobblestone instead of wood planks. (You do still need the sticks, though) 2. Yay! You figured out the furnace! I was a little worried for a second when you put some cobblestone in the wrong spot of the craft box the first time you tried it, but you figured it out! :D :D :D The furnace is very important because you use it to melt metal when you find it underground. You can’t use any metal you find until you smelt it in the furnace. 3. Tree leaves are useful for several things. If you dig them, they give you saplings from that kind of tree, and then you can grow trees closer to your house so you don’t have to travel as far. (Trees have to be planted on dirt though, so if you want one next to your house, make sure you put a dirt block down for it to grow on) Leaves can also be used in a furnace as fuel (they burn really quickly though, a LOT fades than wood, so if you want to use them as fuel then it’s probably a good idea to put a lot of them in the furnace at once). Also, sometimes the leaves can look pretty if you put them around your house as a decoration. 4. You are hitting the correct button to fly, but it’s not working because you haven’t told the game that you’re want it to let you use the flying function. The reason the game does this is because if you’re playing with a whole bunch of people, you don’t necessarily want EVERYONE to be able to fly, so it makes it a limited ability that only the leader of the game can give someone. However, because you’re playing by yourself, you ARE the leader of the game, so you can give yourself the ability. First you have to open the game world, because you can’t tell the game to do something if the game isn’t actually running yet. Then, you type this on your keyboard: /grantme fly This is a command that tells the game that you’re allowing yourself to use the flying ability. But if you don’t tell the game to let you use it, then it won’t work even if you hit the button, because the default setting is no flying. 5. The little yellow glowing thing you found is a firefly! They show up in the air at night, and if you catch one, you can put it in a bottle to make a glowing bottle decoration which you can place somewhere as both a decoration and a light source. It’s one of my favorite features that’s unique to Minetest and isn’t a part of Minecraft or any other block game I’ve tried. 6. Something I’ve noticed that’s happening a lot, is you’re looking at something that has more than one recipe, but you’re only looking at the first recipe that comes up, and missing the easiest recipe for that item. This isn’t really your fault; for whatever reason, the game likes to give you the most obscure recipe first instead of the easiest one. So, it’s a good idea to look at all the recipes for something, because you might actually have everything you need to make that thing without realizing it, all because there was a second recipe that you didn’t notice. (For example: when you looked at the recipe for glass, it said you could make glass by melting glass shards. This is true-however, you can’t make glass shards without having glass in the first place. But if you look off to the side of that first recipe, you’ll see that there’s some arrows that you can click on, and it will show you the other recipes for glass. The easiest way to make glass is by melting sand, as you found out on your own, and the recipe using sand is in there, you just have to use the buttons to find it. 7. I see your inventory is starting to get pretty full as you’re picking things up. Maybe something you can do next time you play is make a chest to store things like the flowers, or glass you’re not using, etc. Especially because once you get to the point where you’re digging a lot, you will need something to keep all your extra stuff in.

Now that I got all the “trying to be helpful but I probably said way too much and gave you a headache on accident” comments out of the way… I’m so glad to see that you’re trying out Minetest! I always wanted to play Minecraft ever since my brother showed it to me shortly after it first came out, but I didn’t have any way to play it and the graphics at the time made me feel motion sick. I eventually got my own laptop, but I didn’t have any online money, so I looked for a free option and discovered Minetest. I’ve tried Minecraft since then, and I do like it, but I still like Minetest better. Is it nostalgia? Is it because I can play it without internet? Is it because it’s easier for me? Who knows. I just really love it and it’s always exciting getting to see people discover it and try it out for themselves. :) I hope you’re having fun, despite all the initial learning curve stuff. The first time I started a world, I spawned in a place that had so many trees that I couldn’t see ANYTHING. I eventually got so fed up with it that I burned down all the trees in that area LOL (there was another forest nearby if I needed wood)
@EG-cm5th3 ай бұрын
Star Wars theme song, yay! It’s great to see you start to figure stuff out! I hope the game starts to feel more natural as time goes on. :D You’re already learning how some things work, that’s a good sign. Tips I thought of while watching (some of these are actually important, others are just little explanations of a couple things. I’ll put a + sign next to the actual important ones): 1. “Does it have to be apple wood?” No. Only if you specifically need apple planks for something, but for basic tools, you just need any kind of wood block. 2. Not all recipes require you to follow the shape exactly, but a lot of them do, so it’s best if you make sure everything is in the same position as the recipe whenever you make anything. I think it’s because sometimes you have two different things that use the same type of material (for example, when you made the axe and the pickaxe, both of them used three wood planks and two sticks. If you didn’t change the shape, then you wouldn’t be able to make two different things with the same numbers of stuff) 3. If you click on something in the craft recipes instructions, sometimes there is more than one way to make something (like with the axe, where you can use any kind of wood), so sometimes they will have multiple recipes for the same thing. You just have to click on the arrows off to the side of the original recipe and it will show you the other ways you can make it. This is especially prevalent for things like wood planks because you can use tree logs to make wood planks but you can also use some other things to make them as well. 4. It’s an easy misunderstanding to make, thinking that the recipe isn’t working because you need apple wood…the reason they send you to “apple wood planks” in the crafting section is because apple wood is the default wood type, so when you click on a recipe that uses “any” of something, it sends you to whatever is the default, even if there are other types of the same thing. + 5. When you’re climbing, don’t forget you can dig to get those pesky dirt blocks out of the way. It’s an easy thing to forget in the moment. + 6. If you’re standing next to a really high cliff and you can’t find an incline to help you get up, then you can put blocks down instead and create your own hill. Also, you can place blocks directly below you, but you have to look down and jump while you’re clicking the button to put the block down. This technique is called “pillaring” (because you’re making a pillar of blocks) and it might help you with some of those hills. It’s also useful for collecting ALL the wood from a tree instead of just some of it. + 7. If you use the left mouse button to pick up a stack of something (like if you have twenty sticks), you can use the right mouse button to put them into the crafting box one at a time without having to pick each one up individually. This will be useful later on when you’re crafting all the time, because it can be tiresome having to pick each piece up and put it down one at a time. 8. For a really basic house, all you really need is wood; you can even use the wood to make a door. To build a house, all you have to do is put the blocks down wherever you want them. If you want to make a house with ONLY wood, you can use the planks for part of it, the tree logs for another part of it, and make a door in the craft box. If you find different kinds of wood, you could even make some nice patterns out of it and stuff. But if you want to make something with more materials, you need to go looking for more things. If you collect a bunch of snow, you can craft snow blocks and build a snow hut; if you collect a bunch of tree leaves, you can use them for decorations or even make an actual house with them, though it might look a little funny. Sand is great because you can use it to make glass or sandstone. Gravel is nice but not necessarily for walls; I like to use it if I want a certain kind of floor. (These are all things you can find without having to go underground) + 9. If you don’t want to worry about losing the stuff you collected when you die, I think the main menu has a “keep inventory” option. 10. If you’re worried about having trouble figuring out how to get back to your house, it might be a good idea to kill your character (AFTER making sure you have “keep inventory” on) because that will take you back to the place where you spawned into the world, and then if you build a house there, you’ll always have a way back. + 11. To avoid dying because of taking fall damage one too many times, you should pick any apples or blueberries you see when you come across them. Just eat a few apples every time you take damage from falling. (I mentioned blueberries because you’re in a snowy area right now and apples don’t usually grow there but blueberries do. Apples grow on apple trees, and blueberries grow on bushes in snowy areas and some grassy areas) 12. If you use the middle button on your mouse when picking up things you’re crafting, you can get ten at once instead of doing one at a time. Also, you can keep clicking until you have enough; you don’t have to put them into the stack before grabbing another one.

I’ve been playing Minetest again the last couple days, and I realized that one of my tips was something that applies to Minecraft but not to Minetest (they are very similar but they have some differences), and something else that I was just misremembering. First of all, typing “/spawn” does not bring you to your spawn point, which is sad. There are other commands for teleporting, but none that specifically mention “spawn.” I wonder if there’s a mod for that and that’s what I was thinking of? Hmmm… Secondly, I said there might be a keep inventory option in the menu. This is also incorrect. There is an option to turn damage off in Minetest, but there isn’t a way to enable keeping your inventory (at least not in the main menu screen) Sorry for any confusion! I just wanted to let you know about those two things. I don’t think I got anything else wrong, though I will double check my comments again just to make sure.
@EG-cm5th3 ай бұрын
Last comment now that I’ve officially finished watching the video! I liked watching this. Most people who are trying Minetest for the first time have already played Minecraft a lot, so they figure out what they’re doing really quickly. Watching someone new is interesting because it brings to light what new players might have trouble with if they don’t know how this kind of game works. I know I already gave you a few tips in a previous comment, but here’s one more for the road: In Mineclonia (and Minecraft), the game shows you crafting recipes based on the items you’ve already picked up or created. In Minetest Game, all of the recipes show up at once, no matter what you already have. Because of this, I think it would be a good idea for you to know what some of the most useful things are that you can make, so that you can look them up in the search bar in the crafting recipes. All of the crafted items I’m mentioning in this comment are made with wood or stone 1. Basic tools- pickaxe, axe, shovel (these tools work faster or slower depending on what they’re made of. A wooden pickaxe is slower than a stone pickaxe, which is slower than a bronze pickaxe, and so on) 2. Chests (you use these to store extra items for if your inventory gets too full. They can’t be moved if they have stuff in them though, so wherever you decide to put a chest, make sure that’s officially where you want it.) 3. Furnace (these are made completely with stone. You place them on the ground and use them to smelt things. For example, you can use it to melt sand to make glass, or to melt ores that you find underground to turn them from lumps into useful ingots, or if you want to make a house out of stone instead of cobblestone, then you can put the cobblestone into the furnace and turn it back into stone. You can use coal for fuel, but because coal is the only thing you can use to make torches, it’s sometimes a good idea to use different fuels in the furnace instead. Tree leaves or wood are a good alternative, although they burn a lot faster than coal and so you need more of them.) 4. Boats (these are useful for getting across the water without worrying about accidentally drowning your character. They can be made from wood planks.) 5. Doors (useful for when you want to build a house) There’s a lot more stuff that you can do with Minetest, but I figure you should start with the basics and work your way up. So if you want or need more tips further down the road, I’ll be happy to help, but I’m trying not to bog you down with too much information at once, hehe. Have a great day!

That’s kind of cool, waiting a while to try things. One thing I like about Minecraft and Minetest is they are focused more around creativity than they are around storytelling. You get to create your own story rather than having the game tell it to you. Don’t worry about this right now because you’re still figuring out how the game works, but you might EVENTUALLY like downloading some mods once you’re comfortable with the basic version of the game itself. Minetest Game is great, but a large part of the appeal of the game for people who like it better than Minecraft is that you can use mods to add things into the game, like extra decoration blocks, useful items, or underground environmental biomes. There are ores to find underground, but other than that it’s mostly all the same type of thing: normal stone, normal stone, more normal stone…I don’t recommend using a super super extreme underground mod, but adding one that gives you more than JUST stone underground would make it less boring once you get to the point of exploring caves. You can find mods like this in the online content shop, (I’m calling it a shop, but it is still free). It does have a website that you can visit but it also has a shop in the main menu of the game itself. Again, don’t worry about this just yet, I just want you to know it’s there. That said, the basic form of the game is pretty good on its own already. It’s just fun to have extra stuff to decorate with when you’re building things like houses and stuff, or extra things to find when you go exploring. One thing I do think you might like to download would be a texture pack. You were asking in the first video whether or not you could change the way it looks, and the answer is yes! There’s actually a pretty good selection of textures (visuals for how the blocks look) that you can download (you have to make sure you change which pack it’s set to though; it doesn’t automatically change it for you) and see if you like them better. I don’t recommend the one that’s meant to make it look “realistic” though, because it’s more difficult for the computer to run it and I personally think it looks strange having realistic dirt in a blocky video game.

Sorry, I know this is my third comment on the same video haha, I just wanted to say that you’re not being an idiot. The main thing is that you aren’t used to this type of game, and so there are things that seem obvious to the people who made the game, but aren’t obvious to someone who doesn’t already have some background knowledge. The crafting guide in Mineclonis is showing you the crafting recipes for things, but it’s not doing a very good job of explaining how it works. You just need a crafting table, because you need to have a 3x3 grid to make the tools. So you use a tree block, turn it into wood planks, then put one wood plank into each square in the small crafting box to make a crafting table. Put the crafting table on the ground, and click on it. Then you can use the crafting recipe to make the tools. This is one of several reasons why I like Minetest Game better than Mineclonia. You automatically get a crafting grid in your inventory page without having to make any extra stuff.

Okay, so. I still haven’t finished watching the video, but I don’t want to forget what I wanted to help you with, so I decided to just type this comment out now. If you do decide to keep playing, here’s a couple of tips related to the problems you ran into during this video: Tip 1. To get out of the hole you fell into, you can activate the Fly ability. You do this by first typing this: /grantme fly This will give your character the ability to fly. You turn flying on and off by pressing K. Once you’ve done that, you fly up by pressing the Spacebar, and you fly down by pressing the Shift key. Forwards and backwards and sideways are the same as usual. Be careful not to turn the flying ability off if you’re too high off the ground, or else you might accidentally kill the character. Tip 2. I’m not completely sure if I’m remembering this one correctly, but you can at least try it and see if I’m right. I think if you type “/spawn” (minus the quotation marks) it will bring you back to where you started the game from. Tip 3. The bush stem you picked up is how you get wood in the biomes in Minetest where trees don’t naturally grow, like some kinds of grasslands. It doesn’t give you as much wood as a tree block, but it’s better than nothing. Put it into the crafting grid to turn it into a wood planks block. Tip 4. To make tools in normal Minetest, just collect some wood and put it into the crafting box at the top of your inventory. (The 3x3 grid) The wood will turn into wood planks. One wooden log block will give you enough planks for you to make one tool. Once you have your planks, take everything out of the crafting box if it’s still in there, and put the wood planks into the crafting box. They will turn into sticks. ONLY CLICK ONE TIME TO TURN THEM INTO STICKS, unless you have a whole bunch of wood (like if you cut down a whole tree) in which case it’s okay if you click more than once…but make sure you keep several of the wooden planks blocks on hand without turning them into sticks, because until you get some stone blocks, you won’t be able to make any tools except wooden ones, and you will need the wood planks to make them. Take everything out of the crafting box. Then, take the sticks, and use the RIGHT-CLICK button on the mouse to place a single stick in the MIDDLE of the craft box. Place another stick in the box directly underneath it. Then put the sticks back in your inventory, and pick up the planks. Depending on what you’re trying to make, the planks will need to be placed in the box in different spots. The most important tool for you right now is the pickaxe, because in Minetest Game, you can’t dig stone at all without a pickaxe. Just like with the sticks, use the right click button to place a wooden plank block in all three of the boxes at the top of the crafting box. This should give you a wooden pickaxe. The wooden tools are extremely slow (the axe for trees isn’t even worth it until you get the stone axe) so you will want to use the cobblestone that you pick up to make a stone pickaxe as soon as possible. The stone pickaxe is made exactly the same way as a wooden pickaxe, except you’re using cobblestone instead of wooden planks. Crafting in Mineclonia is exactly the same, but you have to make a crafting table first because Minecraft (which Mineclonia is attempting to emulate) doesn’t have a built in 3x3 crafting box, just a 2x2 crafting box, which is enough to make a few things (like the crafting table) but isn’t enough to make tools because tools require 3x3 to make. I hope this is helpful and that I wasn’t confusing! If you want any more suggestions, feel free to reply to this comment. :)

I’m only about seven minutes into the video, but this is actually kind of cute. It’s fun seeing someone working on figuring things out and seeing what the game looks like from the perspective of someone who doesn’t play this kind of thing very much. The great thing about the basic version of Minetest Game is that there are no monsters, so you can just explore and run around and make things without worrying about having to fight. I might make a second comment later on with a couple of tips to help you out if you ever decide to play again, but I want to wait and see what you have already learned over the course of the video before I do that. I don’t want to be just repeating stuff you already know, after all.
