I guess we'd have to see the mushrooms in context, but unless they are spotted and have more than one color on top, and give you at least 3 different kinds of new blocks...
I dunno. I'd have to see it in action. Are there any pictures of them from further away? Because an upskirt shot doesn't show much about their shape.
I wonder if they'll give you mushrooms you can plant that will grow like trees too.
There's like 2 weeks until PAX. So I guess all will be revealed soon enough.

Well.. let's critique this picture, shall we?
1) Why use regular blocks for roofs? Use stairs, guys! Also, don't just use wood stairs, use a new type of stair. A shingle stair block would be nice. Something other than wood or cobblestone. Stairs are so boring now. We need more types.
2) That flat one is ugly. The red one could be good if it were 2 high instead of 3. The flat one could use a second smaller layer to give it more of a rounded shape.
3) Can't wait to build with the new mushroom cap blocks and stalk blocks.
4) Nice to see mossy cobblestone used more. Now just let us reclaim glass and we'll be happy.
5) Also create an algorithm to make paths between each house. And smooth the paths with half-blocks. Make a half-block version of Gravel, or use CobbleStone Half-Blocks. (I prefer Gravel for roads since Cobble blends with the wall blocks.
6) Why aren't the houses using the new brick stone block that dungeon had in the other screenshot. Is this one from before that? The houses would look so much better with bricks instead of cobble.
7) Seriously. Use stairs for roofs!
Since there's no grass all over I guess this is an old shot. Hopefully stuff has changed a lot since then.

I've looked at that screenshot a bunch of times but I just noticed the valley off in the distance:
Valleys (well, cliffs) in the current chunk generator are squared off to the grid. That one is clearly not.
I amend what I previously wrote: the 1.8 release will be interesting because it increases the chunk height and because default chunk generation will apparently be way more interesting (based on the above and the other hints Notch has made to other types of terrain it'll generate)

He posted in his G+ page about making tall, narrow ravines. They're typically underground, but can appear above ground as canyons. That's probably what that is.r1chard said:I've looked at that screenshot a bunch of times but I just noticed the valley off in the distance:

Castle exterior done, except I need a mod with a compass to fly to the roof and remove the little dirt ladder I made for me! lol The exterior is huge... and I don't have a good idea of what to do just yet. I eventually will make a road coming down the valley to the lake that will connect to the current Al-Kyou Road.
Anyway, the valley behind Arkyoto is finally being developed. I encourage all the newcomers to join up.

I don't like the giant mushroom idea.. Kind of a strange thing to add, in my opinion. Make them super rare if they are put in at all.

Netherrack is really easy to mine, but watch out for creepers they take out huge chuncks. I built this back in Febuary and used a boosted railway (it used that 2 cart boost system) to get to it since its really far from spawn. After I took those pictures I went inside to the throneroom, for some reason a creeper had spawned in there. It killed me and destoryed 3 floors in the process. It took forever to run back...

Well, my Saria's Song video is nearing 20k views on the YouTubes. I think as celebration, I'll finally upload the map file, which has been my #1 request and question asked.
I downloaded MCedit and attempted to cut the song out of the map... And then I realized I have no frikken clue how to use this program.
Any tips for a n00b? Or a better program recommendation? I just want to cut the song out of the map and make it it's own map, if that makes sense.

ADVENTURERS!!!! Ive finished my latest project, the Temple of Trials!
The temple took about 1 week to complete from start to finish. Its composed of about 30 Thousand Sandstone blocks. Over 4 Thousand redstone dusts went into the mechanics inside the building. There are 6 diabolical traps to test those who dare enter.
Also, prizes are awarded those those who complete the trials, including diamond tools.....
Check out the "Trials" warp to begin your adventure! And have fun!
PS: There is a locker room outside the temple to store your valuables, as some of the traps will destroy the items you drop.

Thank you! Please let me know if you or anyone else has any issues with the traps. Redstone can get really iffy when people die and leave a chunk unoccupied mid activation. Id like to weed out any issues if they occur.
