Eclipse's
Pass It On Minecraft Map
About
This is a pass it on Minecraft map.
One person loads the map, builds, and then re-uploads the map for someone else to add to.
The list
Pete
**Aáron**
Lenton
DrNova
Rules
Each person should have the map for no longer than **ONE DAY**.
Do **NOT** touch someone else's creation without their consent.
Try to keep in style with the rest of the creations.
The Map
I will keep copies of the maps here, as well as screenshots of progress.

Because discussing it here doesn't work… Why? -
I think the grass needs to be spread out a bit to look even. It looks like cubey clumps.

> Right? :3
I suppose.
Although, what I _should_ do is teach you a lesson for not just posting it in show off… But I'm a nice guy. -
@Düsk:
> Is it like 3 total posts/edits or can you submit multiple items without them replacing each other?
Only the newest is counted.
For example, if you submit three separate pieces, the third would be taken to the vote.
If you update a piece twice, the second update would be counted. -

I used to work with the lead singer's uncle :D -
Okay, here's a list of mods I currently have:
[MC Patcher](http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/232701-124-125update-328-mcpatcher-hd-fix-235-01/) - For making sure Mods don't break each other. Ironically, I had to disable all the settings that Optifine enables.
[ModLoader](http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/75440-v125-risugamis-mods-everything-updated/)
[TooManyItems](http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/140684-125-toomanyitems-in-game-invedit-mar-30/) - For Multiplayer fun
[Optifine](http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/249637-173-optifine-hd-f-fps-boost/) - so that the Shaders work
[GLSL Shaders](http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/940974-125sonic-ethers-unbelievable-shaders-glsl-shaders-dynamic-shadows-more/) - To make it sexy
I ended up with a few less FPS, but it's worth it. Also worth noting I have a good computer :p

You don't need a 3 page essay on the background of the game.
Sure, Lore is good to have, but in moderation.
Exposing a player to a shitload of information when they first log in is like you having an entire education thrown at you after 5 minutes of your first class.
Remember the introduction to the first Lord Of The Rings film?
>! The world has changed. I feel it in the water. I feel it in the earth. I smell it in the air. Much that once was is lost. For none now live who remember it. It began with the forging of the great rings. Three were given to the elves, immortal, wisest and fairest of all beings. Seven to the Dwarf Lords, great miners and craftsmen of the mountain halls. And nine, nine rings were gifted to the race of men, who above all else desired power. For within these rings was bound the strength and will to govern each race.
>! But they were all of them deceived for another ring was made. In the land of Mordor, in the fires of Mount Doom, the dark Lord Sauron forged in secretl a master ring, to control all others and into this ring, he poured his cruelty, his malice, and his will to dominate all life. One ring to rule them all.
>! One by one the free lands of Middle-earth fell to the power of the ring. But there were some who resisted. A last alliance of men and elves marched against the armies of Mordor and on the slopes of Mount Doom, they fought for the freedom of Middle-earth. Victory was near but the power of the ring could not be undone. It was in this moment when all hope had faded that Isildur, son of the King, took up his father's sword… Sauron, the ennemy of the free peoples of Middle-earth was defeated.
>! The ring passed to Isildur, who had this one chance to destroy Evil forever. But the hearts of men are easily corrupted. And the ring of power has a will of its own. It betrayed Isildur to his death. And some things that should not have been forgotten were lost. History became legend, legend became myth and for two and a half thousand years, the ring passed out of all knowledge until, when chance came, it ensnared a new bearer. The ring came to the creature Gollum who took it deep into the tunnels of the misty mountains and there it consumed him. The ring brought to Gollum unnatural long life. For five hundred years, it poisoned his mind. And in the gloom of Gollum's cave, it waited.
>! Darkness crept back into the forests of the world. Rumour grew of a shadow in the East, whispers of a nameless fear and the ring of power perceived its time had now come. It abandoned Gollum. But something happened then the ring did not intend. It was picked up by the most unlikely creature imaginable: a Hobbit, Bilbo Baggins of the Shire. For the times will soon come when Hobbits will shape the fortunes of all..."
Yes - This is a lot of information but it's about one main event a long time ago.
Your story spans many years, which is not needed. Make the game tell the story. It would be a lot more rewarding to earn it than to just be told outright.
tl;dr:
It's okay to have Lore, just don't use it all at once.
Write a two paragraph story for the intro, then have pieces of lore scattered through the game. -
@Fernz:
> Well I think I'm getting Minecraft on Xbox so I'm not gonna bother wasting my money on premium for PC
How is buying a game a "waste of money" if you get to to spend hours enjoying it? That's what games are made for.
That's like saying "I'm not going to waste money on food when I can just steal it!". -
Your grammar isn't that great; I see many incomplete sentences.
The story is also not very good. Your description are lacking and there is no plot.
It's not so much a story as a poorly written background of some races. -
Okay, since all the info you gave us is "Mortal Angels", I had to make some assumptions.
1: If a divine being were to find itself on earth, it would have no identity, no social security number, no money, etc… Therefore, I believe they would end up being a hobo.
2: Your game is realistic.
So, with that in mind, I present your logo.
 -
I made you a logo for Euphoria Online.
Since you included **no** information, I assumed "Euphoria" was a sexual game, so I came up with this.
I hope you like it. -
Preludes should set up the scene in some way.
Key locations, characters, themes… One or more of these should be set up in some detail in the early stages of writing, other wise the reader will get bored.
Aeri pointed this out.
You've given us two characters that we, quite honestly, couldn't care less about. Obviously they've affected each other, but how? What happened?
That would be a more interesting story than:
Two dudes. One's dead. He did something good. -
@Owen:
> Out of curiosity, what job exactly is this for?
From what I can guess, future warfare. -
@Marsh:
> Whats with the purse thing?
It's to stop the straighteners burning through shit while they're on. -
So, a guy with an inferiority complex is told he's useful, cries and then dies?
This really seems like more of an ending than a prelude, especially because of the stranger's speech.
It wasn't a bad piece of writing though. -
@Fuu:
> Yes, if you want to be annoying and tl;dr.
No, I read the whole thing. -
So everything does more damage and the story is being adapted?
-
@Jaxx:
> bought out by Microsoft
How is that a good thing?
Pass it on Creative map, anyone?
in Minecraft

Anyone else want to start this off? xD
