Cant to a post today But war z review!

Sorry I can't do a mod review today. The reason why is i have recently updated to the 1.4.6 update. since this update came out very recently there are no compatible mods for it yet. That is why I cannot do a mod review hopefully by the end of winter break there will be compatible mods released and I can continue to do reviews. So since I cannot do a minecraft review I will do a review of a game I have recently got called The War Z. the war z is a recently created open world zombie survival. there are no objectives other than to survive as long as you can. the game was built of of the war inc battlezone games engine which was made by the same company. the game is still in late alpha to early beta and has a lot of potential. The gameplay is similar to that of the other famous open world zombie survival game mod for arma 2 known as day z (yes i know war z sounds shockingly familiar but that is not the point.) you start the game by choosing a character. after creating them you join a server and are set out to survive the zombie apacolypse! you will spawn with a little food and water along with a flashlight which will help you see and defend yourself against zombies but also will attract a lot of zombies. however the enemy you really need to look out for are the other players. most will kill you on sight for your loot. have a wonderful holiday

Modern craft texture pack

Todays texture pack is a very good one. It doesn't focus on changing the way that the game looks but rather how certain parts of it look. For instance instead of changing every block they focused on certain parts like making the wood door into a glass door and the chest into a cardboard box. And then they just changed other unimportant things a different color like the bed which is blue instead of red like in regular minecraft. I liked the way that they made a certain block (can't remember which one) so it would look like a radio antenna. that way you could build buildings that looked authentic and more like a modern building than you would be able to in regular minecraft. The paintings were also interesting  some looked like modern art while others were warning signs or parking signs. pics and link below

Minecraft websites, theres more than one

Hello todays post isn't a mod and more of a warning. Usually i only post mod links to minecraft forum. Usually I recommend using that website for most mods and textures. However there are other websites with mods and texture packs not available on the minecraft forums one other widely known website is planet minecraft. Actually I would only use these two websites all other websites I would trust. the other ones have users who try to upload a virus link every once in a while. However minecraft forum and minecraft planet both check the links of the uploads and will eliminate any fake mod links that will download a virus here are links to both websites tell me which one you like more in the comments!

square swept texture review

today's texture pack adds a more "modern art" style look to minecraft. Everything is made up of squares rounded or sharp edged. the most noticeable change however is in the lighting the creator of this texture changed the light filters in the game to give a more realistic feel to the daytime with better shadows and i slight blur around objects far away to give you that instagram "photographer" (and i use that word loosely) style pictures but somehow doesn't make me feel like puking. here are screens and a link to download it

Minimap for minecraft!!!!!!!!!

Todays mod is something much needed in the minecraft universe a mini map  The map is just a small square or circle that you can position in any of the four corners of the screen. The map has multiple zoom levels although i prefer the most zoomed out option. in addition to a surface map there is a cave map which will show you large underground caverns and a biome map that will tell you what type of biome you are in. in addition you can make some handy dandy way points on your map so you could never lose a certain location like a house or a good mine. All in all this mini map is one of the most useful utilities you can ever get!

Team Fortress 2 Texture pack

Disclaimer: If any installation does not go through smoothly I am not responsible for anything that goes wrong while installing this or any other texture pack

for instructions on how to install refer to my first texture pack post

Hello, today's texture pack is of the team fortress craft texture pack it is made to mimic the highly popular free to play game called team fortress 2. It does so by mimicking the art style which is a very cartoony look that I enjoyed but however is not for everyone. Where this texture pack stands out most is the paintings. the creator of the texture pack took many of the symbols and signs of the red team including their logo. This could be a perfect texture pack for someone who wants to build a team fortress 2 style map. some of the ore blocks were made to look like containers instead of bricks and certain tools looked like some of the gear the characters in TF2 use. Here are screenshots and  a link to texture

How To Make Your Own Texture Pack

Todays post is for the more creative folks reading this blog. As the title states I will be giving you all a short tutorial on how to make your very own texture packs! Lets say you want to edit the texture of the pig. The first thing to do is make sure you have some sort of photo editing software like ms paint or gimp. then go to your minecraft folder then to the bin folder open up the minecraft.jar folder and find yet again a folder named mob open up the mob folder and find the file named pig.png then open the editing software to and draw the pig as you would like it to look. or lets say you want to change what a block looks like go to the bin folder and find the png file named terrain and open that in the software then find the block you want to change and color it to your liking. The same goes for items and weapons just find the png file open it and edit it its a simple as that! then enjoy your unique minecraft texture all you want ( it is a good idea to make a copy of the png files you edit if you ever want to return to the original texture.)

The uhh super pills mod (definitely a trustable pill nothing suspicious at alll heheheh)

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for anything that goes wrong with your computer in result to not following the correct instructions to install any mod and or texture pack!

to see how to install mod reference back to the simple anvil mod review

This mod adds uh so to speak adds super pills to the game. so you can give your minecraft character some not so trustable roids so to speak that give you superhuman effects the 6 pills each do something different. The armor pill makes you tough and nearly invincible but impares your vision. The healing pill provides instant health and regenerating health for a minuete or so. The super strength pill makes your fists the most powerful thing in the world and gives no side effect. The super speed pill makes you run super fast the side effect is a very stretched field of view. The super jump pill allows you to jump extremely high the side effect causes the screen to zoom in a little bit. And finally we have the super pill. The super pill has a toned down version of everything stated above and is the most valuable because it needs diamonds to be crafted. Each pill consists of one pill dependent ingredient such as meat or glowstone dust. But all pills have sugar in them. So maybe you just cant handle your sugar and it does weird things for you. Either way this mod is fairly interesting and definitely worth checking out

dusty craft texture pack review

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for anything that goes wrong with your computer in result to not following the correct instructions to install any mod and or texture pack!

to see how to install texture pack reference back to the simple craft texture pack review

todays texture pack is called the dusty craft texture pack! This texture pack adds an air of rustic fantasy times to minecraft. The texture pack also tries to make minecraft a little more light hearted and brighter looking while still trying to keep the semi seriousness of survival. The creator obviously wanted to make you feel extravagant when you play with the texture pack because all of the armor is highly detailed and very nice looking. As well as the tools and weapons, the swords, hoe's, shovel's, and pickaxe all look more and more detailed as you get to the more precious materals you make them out of. While the wood tools look very foolish and look like a child made them, the diamond tools look like an fantasy person's millionaire lawn equipment. Also they put a lot of detail in the food which was a little weird seeing as there were some blocks that were more important than food that they did a poor job of texturing. The biggest flaw with it though is that there is no fire image so you will need to make your own besides that they did a very good job on this texture pack!

legocraft texture pack

to see how to install texture pack reference back to the simple craft texture pack review

todays texture pack is about legos. Yes legos, this texture pack turns all blocks into a legoized version of themselves. So basically its making a game of building even more about building. This isn't a really useful texture pack it doesn't make anything easier nor is it a stunning retexture. What it is is a lighthearted reskin that you can use if you if it seems fun to you. Unfortunately its only blocks right now because the texture is still not fully developed. so there aren't any lego swords or lego chickens... yet. The texture is a little rough around the edges. but im sure once it is fully finished each block will click together seamlessly and beautifully. Here are screens

flash shelter mod

Today i have what may be the most useful and amazing idea ever for minecraft. The flash shelter is a mod that creates an instant home anywhere even underwater! All you have to do is lay down the block and click and presto! one livable house! but what if you of a mobile person no problem with this mod just break the block you laid down and the house disappears and turns back into a single carry able block so you can move on as you please! the houses while small provide everything you need a bed a chest a crafting table and a smelter. these houses can also be a great starting point and you could expand on them to make a bigger non moveable house. the idea is very nice its like the worlds fanciest tent. here are some screen shots and a link to the mod

flying mod

to see how to install mod reference back to the simple anvil mod review

http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1166218-132-just-fly/ here is the mod

well the title really says it all the flying mod is a single .jar file that allows the player to toggle the ability of flight on or off with a key that they set in the menu. This is a simple and nice mod because some may want to play survival mode but need to get somewhere quickly so they just press a key take off and fly over to where they need to go be it a mine, house, farm they built whatever they need it for! It is also nice if you just want to use it to fly around and find a good spot to build a house. This is also a nice mod because there is no way it can interfere with another mod since it doesn't replace any files it just adds one. Also think of the possibilities, you can finally get around to building that air fortress or if you ever in a tight spot just press the key and zoom away. Think about it building your house in the sky is safe because creepers dont fly! and in the morning just fly down to the ground and get to the days work. Overall this is a very easy to use and fun to use mod that I highly recommend here are some screenshots

pig craft texture pack review

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for anything that goes wrong with your computer in result to not following the correct instructions to install any mod and or texture pack!

to see how to install texture pack reference back to the simple craft texture pack review

Today I have a rather weird texture pack to review. Pig craft as you can probably guess is a texture pack all about pigs and pork chops. To start off here are some screen shots

So as you can see some blocks are not textured which is a bummer the untextured ones are purple. however the ones that are textured look like various pig related items wood looks like a moldy piece of pork the pumpkin looks like super meat boy (an online game.) and cobblestone looks like a slab of raw pork. In the picture you obviously see a lot of pork chops and rain I dont know why the rain is there because in game all of the rain drops were changed to pork chops thus pork chops everywhere. This is a very funny texture pack that I found on minecraft forum. This texture pack also makes animals look like they are made out of pork chops. Unfortunately non of the tools are textured so the texture pack only changes the look of certain blocks and rain.

here is a link to the texture pack: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/347538-16x16165-pigcraft/

Dragon Dance texture pack review

here are some pictures of the regular texture and the texture pack

dragons dance

regular texture

dragons den is a very smooth texture pack. It is a cartoony but it still has an air of a little seriousness but mostly cartoony. At a quick glance the ground looks very smooth but repetitive grass textures make this texture lack. Besides that I like the rest of the textures. It is smooth and not to jaggety. It was intended for people to make a role playing game. or to make adventure maps. All in all it is a very nice texture pack. for instructions on how to install this see my first texture pack post. Bye!

Minecraft anvil mod review

Disclaimer: I am not responsible for anything that goes wrong with your computer in result to not following the correct instructions to install any mod and or texture pack!

Welcome to my first mod review! Todays mod will be the anvil mod. The anvil mod is used to craft an anvil which can repair you tools an infinite amount of times. This is very helpful to have so if your mining and your tools about to break just use anvil mod and boom your tool is repaired. However there is one thing the basic anvil constructed using four (4) iron block can only fix wood to iron tools and nothing more however it can be upgraded if you use a crafting table and put the anvil in the middle along with four (4) iron blocks and four (4) diamonds you get an reinforced anvil. This anvil can repair any tool as long as it is not enchanted but what if it is then you need to make an ender anvil. Ender anvils are made by putting a reinforced anvil on a crafting table and then adding four (4) diamonds and four (4) eyes of ender. With this anvil you can repair ANY tool in minecraft. To use the anvil simply equip the tool you want to repair and left click the anvil. To use this mod you need modloader to get it click on link below and follow install video for your computer and use the same method to install mod Link:
