038 Updating Your Resource Packs : Let's Play Minecraft
Channel: Geeky Minecrafter
Date: 2016-03-12

So today is a little Geeky, or should I say a little geekier than normal? Minecraft 1.9 is released and resource pack developers are releasing their updates, including one of my favorites, ChromaHills.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Follow along as I record "How To" videos on surviving in Minecraft. 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~

I started this to teach my grandkids (yep, I'm a Minecraft playing granny!), but feel like it could expand quite a bit to include some geeky things as well as survival tips. 

Ideally, we will be thriving, not just surviving. I've been learning about red stone, so there will be videos on using it to automate some of your world as well. Automatic collection on wheat farms, rabbit, cow and pig farms that provide a constant source of meat. Even collection bins, auto sorting and perhaps an elevator or two.

Episode Recap: 
~~~~~~~~~~
Today, we will discuss the 1.9 update, playing different versions of Minecraft with different profiles and finding, installing and activating a new texture pack. I'm using Pure BD Craft, but switching to ChromaHills. Links for both are below. 

~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Stay tuned. This is part of a long series of kid friendly "how to" and "let's play" videos parents can be happy to let their kids watch.
