Information on the Map 2. Rules for this Map 3. Installation 4. Version History 5. Known Issues and Troubleshooting 6. Copy Status and Credits ****************************************************************** 1. INFORMATION ON THE MAP ****************************************************************** Follow the marked path for about 30 days to reach the end. Sometimes the path will be a well-paved road. Other times it will be a small trail. Sometimes it will just be markers or signs. Sometimes you will ride on a mine car. Sometimes you will ride a boat on a canal. Other times you will carefully navigate across wide oceans. You will even follow the path through the Nether.
At the end of the path there is cool stuff. A castle, a roller coaster, a trampoline, a shooting gallery, treasure, and food.
There are 31 shelters spaced out along the path. Some rather fancy, some rather plain. The main thing is to be inside of one when darkness falls. Each shelter is marked with a waypoint sign so that you can tell how far along you are. You can travel the path as slowly or as quickly as you like. You can go for speed and see how few days you can make the journey in, or you can take your time, hoard resources, and enjoy the scenery.
The map uses a really exciting seed with all the biomes within 2000 blocks of spawn. The path is purposely routed to go through all the most exciting biomes including mesa, Bryce, ice spikes,jungle, mushroom island, and mega taiga. It pretty much gives you a tour of all the Minecraft biomes. ****************************************************************** 2. RULES FOR THIS MAP ****************************************************************** There really aren't many. It is free play style. Break all the blocks you want, place all the blocks you want, craft all you want, and farm all you want.
Rules: (1) Stay in Survival Mode at all times. (2) It is best to stay on the hard difficulty setting at all times. (3) Do not use console commands to cheat. ****************************************************************** 3. INSTALLATION ********************************************************************* Use 7-Zip to extract the downloaded Minecraft map to your .minecraft\saves director
