Minecraft

OK this is a bit intimidating. I have a four year old grandson that plays Minecraft and so does his dad my son. I thought this would be easy to do but then I know I am always challenged with games especially electronic ones. I was able to set up an account but was not sure what to do once logged in. I managed to start breaking things but need a tutorial or to visit the kids in Delaware.

It appears I really needed to pay attention to instructions to get this game going. I was concerned about taking a screen shot with my character in it. I needed to learn how to change the person view of the camera to see me in the shot

So I manage to break some blocks and take a screen shot.  You need to press fn + f2 to take a screen shot in fact I decided I should check out more of the keyboard shortcuts. My Mac didn't have a mouse so it was necessary to borrow one to do some left and right clicking. It was important to set up the buttons to click. I notice that it gets dark quick and thus must have to do with the amount of time you are working. I found it made sense to start another world.

You find additional information as is displayed above. After taking the screenshot I did not know where to find them. Thankfully a youngster had create a video online which I have shared.

The key piece of information is go to finder>folders then add ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/screenshots/

I watched the tutorial to build a table but will need to review how to get the wood from the tree. Sadly I kept busting it when I needed pieces to turn into planks. Unfortunately my 40 years building trades experience have not been helpful to this latest endeavor.
