New Lighting beds and half blocks for minecraft

So I just snapped a few pics of the bed and the lighting. I think the bed was a nice addition since you can sleep in it at night and wake up in the morning:


I'm not sure about the light. It just seems like a texture pack though it's nice and smooth:

The bed looks more like an army cot

Yeah, I really did carve this room out. The stairs at the far end now connect with Spiderhome and Waterfall Cove by way of another huge underground chamber.
The glass floor is over a zombie mob cube so you can see them.
I took this from a new tower. I'm still not sure what I'm going to make here. The pyramid roof is on top of the mob tower.
At the far end of the room beside the ovens you can see the collector for the mob tower. The door in the middle of the room leads to the zombie mob generator. I intend to make this an arena - some day.

New Saved Minecraft Game

I don't know if anyone enjoys messing in other peoples worlds or not but I've been uploading my saved games. You need to extract the folder (I used 7zip - free is good!) and then put it in [Ussername]/AppData/Roaming/.minecraft/saves and name it "World5." If you already have a world5 make sure to temporarily change the folder name, before putting in the downloaded folder, so you don't accidentally write over your game. When you're finished with the downloaded save just delete it (or whatever) and change your folder name back.

Anyway, I just finished going on a giant explore and built a little cabin in the woods miles from the spawn point. There is a compass in one of the chests so it shouldn't be too hard to find your way. The game was set on peaceful for this save so there won't be any nasty surprises right away.

I just finished a new mob tower and it works awesome; the collector is in Gravehome. Be warned though because Gravehome isn't finished and there are lots of monsters running around. I also built a nether portal under a new flat. There is so much new stuff it's impossible for me to list it all. There are around 250 mossy stones at Waterfall Cove. I'm still trying to figure out what to do with them.

There are also two mob traps that I built around dungeons and then forgot where they are. Neither was working very well so it's not much off a loss. The mob tower works way better anyway.

The Isometric map is HUGE! (34 MB) So you can get it from Hotfile if you really want it: Isometric map.

I'll be putting this world on a server soon. I'm not sure if it'll be public or not since I want to avoid grievers (people who log on and destroy as much as they can). I still have to figure out how the security will work.
