New Blog News

New Blog News: I will post every other day now! So I am posting for a longer time!

Archaeology/Fossil mod

MC News: Hello, and welcome to the second edition of MC mod review! And consisting of 3/22/12 Minecraft 1.2.4 is out! You know what that means! No more mods! YAY! Unless you don't update. ;) Well, hopefully you didn't update!

Today's mod: Fossil/Archeology Mod
In this fantastic prehistoric mod. You can raise animals and cause hell on a village with a T-Rex! And raise a Saber Tooth Tiger! Mine, Scavenge, and Kill your way through a Cave-man life! In this mod there are a wide verity of weapons like: the javelin and a new ancient sword and a scarab tool set. As shown in this picture:

The instalation for this mod is really easy. Install modloader, then Audiomod, Put the contents of the Fossil mod in mods folder. ( Before you can also make the mods folder. Start a New Folder, call it "mods" without a capital. Or before you install the Fossil mod, open MC first, it automatically installs when you start.) Close out of minecraft.jar. Start MC and start your own Jurassic Park!

From left to right: Acheology table-When an ancient sword and a ancient is put in, (Needed relic srap is put in bottom box, like a furnace.)

Analizer- After you mine things in a fossil stone you can make things such as:Gravel, Dino DNA, Stone tablets,

Cultivate Vat- When you open it up you need to put bio-fossils in the bottom, like the Analizer... And put your DNA in the left. If  failure a green zombie like monster will appear and it is VERY hostile.

Javelin- Throw able weapon. Problem? :D

Scarab Weapons-The new set... Isn't very strong but looks awesome!

Not Shown** Feeder- Feeds the Dinos to make them not die. :D

Also adds animals suck as: T-Rex, Triceratops, Velociraptor,  Pterosour, Nautilus, Phesiosour, Masousourus, Stegosaurus, Dilaphasour, Branchiosous. A lot of Dinos! I would go all day with all the fantastic things this mod has to offer. But I can't... So this one was sort of boring. I have a Volume of pictures, so here you go!

Fossils when they are natural.





A series of mining fossil drops! :D

I give this mod a 9.9/10

Rei's Minimap

Hello, and welcome to Minecraft mod reviews. I just want to take a second to admire the game that made this possible... Ok, I will post in a systematic way. First: Mod title, Second: A few words about the mod. Third: Review, fourth: Installation. And fifth: Rating. (FYI: Grammar mistakes will be an issue on this blog.) :D.

  Today's mod:
    A fairly simple mod, Called Rei's Minimap.
This mod is self-explanatory, a minimap. Fairly simple.

This minimap has a colored CoD map. It has your position. Indecated by a red arrow on screen. There is also a very wide variety of settings. Shown in this picture:












It can make an indication on any living animal.(Just as in CoD.) and can be made into a Zan minimap style, it is a Mideval style minimap. Good for any old style texture pack. It can also be expanded to have an easier view, opened by pressing X. There is also a cave map option to see where your cave will lead to next. There is many more I can get into, we only hit scratched the surface.

This mod is a drag and drop situation. If you don't know what I mean, go to your .minecraft folder by going to your search bar and typing: %appdata%. Go to roaming. Go to .mineraft Go to your bin folder, located as the top folder, and right click minecrat.jar (It has the java symbol on it.) and you will need Win.rar, 7-zip or any other sutable program. Right click minecraft.jar, open with..., win.rar or 7-zip.  DELETE META-INF!!!!! Get modloader... Install modloader (to be safe.) ;) Open Rei's Minimap. and drag all the contents from Rei's to the minecraft.jar. Close minecraft.jar login to Minecraft and enjoy the awesomeness.
    
                                              I give Rei's Minimap a 9.5/10
I always install this mod first. I can't play Minecraft without it. Seriously.
I feel incomplete without it...
Well, that concludes the first mod review, I will do a mod review every day!
See the next mod tomorrow!
