Authors Note: While this magazine is free, we do request a donation of $1 per

issue you read. This isn’t required, but it is greatly helpful. It costs around $10 to

buy an actual domain name, and $20 a month to remove the ads from around this

magazine. Your name will get put onto the sponsors page if you donate $5 or

more, and you may place links from there to your own website. We don’t have this

money, so we still have those ads and we still have a dot.tk domain, which is

blocked on many websites, including the Minecraft Forums. Thank you, Minecraft

Weekly.

Redstone Redstone is one of the most amazing parts of

Minecraft. It is a very similar clone of digital electronic

circuits based on Boolean algebra. More simply, it’s

real world circuits in a video game. It allows massively

complex circuitry to be done with very little knowledge

of what you are actually doing. It’s one of my personal

favorite aspects of the game. The other amazing thing

about it is what people have done. Ever since it was

introduced in early Alpha, people have done amazing

things. People have even been able to build a version of

chutes and ladders! There is even a new version being

created that allows the computer to play!

Because of how awesome Redstone is, every week

from now on, there will be a Redstone Tip. These can be

anything, although the first ones will just be the basics

to get you started.

The first weekly article on Redstone explains what

binary is, and how it relates to Redstone. You can find it

on the Minecraft Weekly website.

Redstone Creations

Minecart Storage System

This system is an easy way to have it deliver many

different kinds of items right to you. This particular

version was done by thebooster on the Minecraft

Forums.

The Redstone behind this

Space Invaders

This is one of the more amazing creations. It is the

entire Space Invaders game inside of another video

game! Next, we’ll have Minecraft playing Minecraft inside

of Minecraft.

A lot of Redstone went into

something this amazing!

Latest News Notch has just tweeted a picture of a

creeper in someone’s house, which may or may

not mean that creepers will be invading you in

real life. Please evacuate the Earth before

this happens.

Seriously though, Jeb has announced that the

default world will be taller than 128, but we’re not sure

by how much.

Seed of the Week

This week’s seed is for Minecraft 1.1, so make

sure you’re on this version before you start

complaining that it doesn’t work. It is a hardcore

seed with a small island with one tree. The seed is

“kjkszpj”.

Texture Pack of the Week

We don’t have a Texture Pack of the Week this

week because it’s too hard to decide on the best

one. Send an email to

[email protected] with your

favorite texture pack!

Reviews

There is only one review this week,

because of the fact that there is just too

many different maps and texture packs to

choose from! If you want your map or

texture pack reviewed, just send an email

to [email protected]!

The map is called “The Tourist” and it

consists of an adventure in Paris, France.

I’m not going to give too much away, but the

building in it is amazing. Go and download it!
