You're definitely going to want torches at the very least -- those are really simple to make: Just a stick with a lump of coal on top. All of the current possible recipes are found here: Crafting - Minepedia - The Minecraft Wiki!
You also want to take a look at smelting: Furnace - Minepedia - The Minecraft Wiki!
Finally, you can adjust the fog by hitting the F key, and it will cycle through different fog distances. Shorter view distance is better for shittier computers.
Oh, and some of my stuff if you're interested, in very artifact-ey JPEGs: |
Looks like you have some pretty nifty stuff going on! So far I've made it without torches just because I don't know where to get coal. I've found lots of flint so far but no coal.
Also... I was working my way down a pretty deep hole in my first base which was basically four very tall walls. When I was gonna head back up when a guy appeared in my mine! Jesus Christ that scared the crap out of me!
