Tips & Tricks


1. Don't waste any materials !
- Plan before you craft !
- Craft the amount you needed only, materials are limited !
- Don't waste charcoal by smelting only one item.
- Use glass panes instead of whole glass block !
- Use carpets instead of whole wool block !
2. Place glass and leaves carefully once you place it, you can't get it back !
3. Remember to use DEFAULT texture pack ! Photos sent must be in Default texture pack !
4. Don't build a flat thing ! Have some texture !
