Day1part 1 (read all parts)

Day 1 Is the most important day in Minecraft because it is one that defines what your going to do in that world. There are 3 paths you can take on the first day.  Path one: Is becoming a nomad. if you decide to become a nomad the first day will be mostly collecting recourses. You only have to punch blocks of wood and things growing out of the ground that look like grass if you keep mining those objects. By the afternoon you should have at least 10 blocks of wood and 32 seeds.

 

If you happen to see any sheep. Feel free to kill it for it's wool which will be important later on.

Also cows are very handy for there leather for armor and their beef for food. Pigs are good for pork   porkchops and chickens are good for feathers and chicken.

 

After you have collected your supplies you should start mining. First open your inventory the 4 squares is your crafting area.  

Put a block of wood in it and you should see blocks of wooden planks. Put 4 wooden planks in the squares to make a crafting table. Then if you place the crafting table down and left click on it you will see the 3 by 3 square for crafting.

Here are the basic tools you may need and there crafting recipe. (You only need one of each) Can be made with iron ingots, golden ingots, diamonds, Cobblestone, and wooden planks.

Shovel: For digging through dirt, sand, gravel, and other soft materials.

Axe: a faster way to collect wood.

Pickaxe: for mining stone and ore

After you’ve made a pickaxe you should go mining. Just dig into the ground until you hit stone. Grab 8 pieces of cobblestone from mining stone. Once you have 8 pieces of cobblestone make a furnace like this.  

Furnaces are used for cooking food and smelting ores. Also you can use them for extra things like making charcoal.

Now that you have made a furnace you can use it for charcoal. Left click your furnace and you will need wood and more wood.

 Use this to make charcoal. If you put charcoal over a stick in the crafting area you will get a torch. A mountable source of light for your unfinished shelter. Light keeps mobs away that spawn at night or in dark places like caves or unlit houses.

Without torches here is a cave.                     With torches here is a cave.

Torches do not light up everything you in a cave so you should put multiple torches around your houses or areas.
