BTW Puzzle map

[jorgebonafe]

Not to keep hijacking the other thread, I decided to make a new one. I made a very small puzzle map with Better Than Wolves based on the Myst puzzle concept, where the user has to experiment and explore to understand how things work and progress. I changed a few blocks from the old version, just so the user wont be able to climb out of the map, and added a small prize at the end.

Here is the link, you need BTW v3.492 to run it, it wont work on older versions: link

And here is the MCF link for the map. link

Comments appreciated

Cool. I'll check it out!

I'll check the changes as soon as I fix my BtW installation. I somehow broke it when trying to install it along with the HD texture pack fix. Wanted to use SpaxBDcraft or whatever it's called.

Also, as a response to earlier replies in the other thread:
I'm aware it was presented pretty much as a proof of concept. Honest and especially complete criticism for the sake of improvement is important to me. Leave something out and you may leave out something the creator overlooked, causing the flaw to remain.

As meaningless as it is to say, I'm going to be doing this map tonight on my livestream. Figured I should give myself some warm-up since I haven't played Minecraft in a few weeks, and BTW in a month or so. If anybody would like to stop by, the stream will be live at 8:00 PM EST (so an hour from now).

Anyways, I can't wait to fail horribly at it. I have a streak with failure during puzzle maps, it seems. No matter how simple they are.

Wow, that's awesome! How long until then? I can't miss this.

Edit. Wow, somehow I missed the time in your post, don't know how. Nevermind :P I'll be watching intently XD

Damn, its one of those times I wish my connection was a little better....

You touched up the scenery rather well. I'd have to struggle to get outside of the map now, which is definitely sufficient. Good job including the rules in-game as well. You misspelled break though.

Considering I'm still new to the mod, the prize at the end, er... had more of a surprise to it than I expected.

Yeah, sure, and I appreciate the criticism. I hope it didn't seem as if I was offended or anything by your comments. I even took your advice and fixed it :P

For every person that didn't know about that particular feature and reaches the end, I'll feel like I reached my goal a bit more :P

Real quick, though, before I star the stream:

I've been a member of this board since the first day, but I don't think I've ever figured out how to pronounce your name. Care you alleviate my pains of butchering it in its entirety?

(PS: I should leave a link just in case people want to, y'know watch.)

Seems interesting :)

And, K', I usually call him George, 'cause that's easy to remember and to say :)

It was mostly someone else's comment. Yours actually seemed to be more about the aesthetics of the area I thought, which didn't really comment on. And I did notice you took my advice on both counts.

Humm.. I guess its a tough name for English pronunciation... Let me see if I can explain... lol...

Actually, the french pronunciation is pretty close to the portuguese one... Only the last "e" is a bit more apparent.

Edit. K, here... Just click on the little "talk" button :P

Not really... Not yet anyway... I like to make this kind of things, but I don't have much time..
Edit. By the way, the pulley is heavily integrated in this map. Just behind the scenes, though :P
