Title: Minecraft
Post by: tehrozzy on September 10, 2010, 08:06:31 PM
Minecraft is made by Markus Persson, an indie games developer. It consists of a large world made of cube blocks.
There are currently two game modes
Minecraft Alpha (called so for it is Minecraft Survival in Alpha stages)
and Creative mode
Creative Mode is completely free
Survival Mode is 10euros(while in alpha), 15euros(while in beta) and 20euros once its complete
These are oneoff payments, if you buy it in alpha you wont have to pay extra once it goes to beta and so on.
In creative mode you have unlimited blocks and can build and destroy anything.
In Survival Mode you have to get your resources by mining, digging and chopping down trees. Different blocks take longer to destroy depending on what they are and what tools you are using. Survival (alpha) has crafting, where you use resources to make tools, weapons, armour or other resources. Survival also features Mobs, AI controlled bots. There are chickens (drop feathers when killed, occasionally lay eggs), Pigs (pork when killed), Sheep (can be sheared for wool) and cows (leather when killed, can be milked.)
There are also Enemy Mobs, Consisting of your average zombie, Giant Spiders, then also Archer Skeletons and Creepers (4 Legged Walking Bombs).

Here, have a video of some sheep and a pig enjoying a minecart rollercoaster:

I was wondering when someone would post this, with the recent publicity it's been getting.

Anyway, just for anyone who's interested in dishing out that 12-13 dollars or so, Beta comes when Notch AKA Marcus Persson gets mobs fully working in Survival Multiplayer.

Yes, there is Survival Multiplayer. It's buggy, but it's really fun nonetheless.

I was playing it offline and it was pretty fun. I also was watching my friend play and it's really cool how it you can do different things in the game.

Yeah i was surprised it wasnt here already.  Ive had Survival since about version 1.0.6 :P thats about 15-20 updates ago xD

Also, the multiplayer is almost completely finished. Chests, furnaces, inventory, signs and all that is now server sided and working, no updates on the minecarts or techy stuff (levers and buttons etc) and multiplayer now has enemy mobs, but they cant be directly harmed yet (fire and lava still work)

Even on classic, people come up with really cool mods. Most are simple building servers, but I've seen CTF servers. Also worth mentioning is that TheOne's Servers has a dedicated Lava Survival server up. You should go ingame to ask them how it works, if there's any helpful people online at the time. They also have a TNT Wars thing, where you place TNT that blows up after 3 seconds. Kills get you points for items. In addition, I've even seen a portal mod. That's right, a portal mod.

At the moment me and Grim_Reaper (from this forum/game) are making CoD Zombies Der Riese in Alpha mode which is hard
coz we have to mine out all of out resources to build it xD we have literally torn down half a mountain, and we havent even finished the mainframe.

Yeah Wurm was developed by Notch for a short time also, but he left it to Rolf or whoever the current guy is. I hear he's not doing too good of a job.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Prosper on September 20, 2010, 08:27:21 PM
For the 2-3 years ive been around wurm I always thought Rolf was the creator/owner of it and the idea of it. Didn't know someone else was the mastermind... :O

EDIT : cool this post just made me a *** Full member ... instead of a ** jr member XD.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: EpicPhailure on September 20, 2010, 08:31:37 PM
I think they worked together at its start or something, but then Notch let Rolf have it all.

I've been contemplating starting one on my laptop since it gets minimal usage, mostly as a development server for myself and some co-developers.  In the meantime, been playing on Chaos's over Hamachi.  I bought the game, and look forward to future updates!

Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Lucifer on October 05, 2010, 01:11:41 PM
Yeah I gotta say this game is pretty addicting. Chaos got me to download it and actually try it, and I found the entire crafting and creating system to be pretty unique. It's always heart racing to be digging deep down into your mines, hearing moaning behind the walls, wondering when you're going to suddenly strike through and find yourself in a monster infested room. At the moment however the game is very incomplete and repetitive, destroy and create, rinse, repeat. The way I would describe Minecraft would be a sandbox where you lack a shovel and bucket, and you're told to go make them yourself you lazy !@#$.

It is a bit unrealistic. Does anyone know if lanterns/torches will be lit while you hold them? Torches only lighting up only when you stick them on a wall is a bit strange to me.

Update looks awesome, =D.

Post by: Seifer on October 06, 2010, 03:34:38 PM
Ehhh, just one more thing to craft. I played minecraft for awhile, but eventually I got to the point where I was mining for red stone, iron and diamonds deep, deep down right above the lava. And usually I was safe, I would clear an area before I started minining, torches, etc etc. Anyway, sometimes they would find me anyways! I could be in there for 30+ mins and be safe, and all the sudden whammy! And it was friggen scary to, game makes me jump. Yes yes, I could play with sound, but I want my music.

FFS, I did that the other night. This guy and I were robbing a store, and while we were running away with blocks of diamond in hand, these two guys try to stop us, and we split up. One follows me, and when he catches me suddenly it's pitch black, and we hear moaning sounds. He agrees not to kill me, I drop my diamond block, and we !@#$in' book it.  No joke, that was my dream...

Yeah its 6 stories tall (not including the blades)
Its got a diving ledge at the very top (Not veiwable cause it goes into the ocean behind it.)
The first roof on my house can kill creepers without them blowing up. Its 3 meters above the ground and they can't won't blow up.
You can also look into the windmill from the first roof.
I'll try to get a few more screenshots of inside the windmill and behind it.

I do every so often, and a good 1/10 or more of the time I run into griefers. Until Notch adds the 'territorial flags' he's been thinking about adding, there's going to be problems, especially since Minecraft is so easily griefable.

I've yet to see anyone set up a server, so here one is.  It's a paid version, requiring users to have bought the game.  Sorry for all you pirates out there:

boobs.servebeer.com

It will remain up all the time, so no worries, I'll see tomorrow about setting up a cron job to archive the maps into a compressed tar for download so that users may download the map into their single player game to play.

We connected a crude underground tunnel directly between Scotty's castle and the starting town.
We plan to expand upon it.

Also, I now own a cave full of spiders and I have a secret house.

The Spider Cave is an extension of my mine, right next to the Community Chest if anyone wants to check it out. My mine has 2 entrances, and the Spider Cave has a huge entrance just a few paces away(be careful not to fall into any deep, dark pits because it's annoying).

Blah, now I wish I paid.

But yeah, underground tunnels are good. I know in my game, the staring area was a collection of small islands, and I had to travel fairly far to get to a mountain and some coal. The first few times I died I got lost, and finally I said !@#$ it and build a long ass underground, under water, tunnel from my base to the starting point.

@Scotty: Well MCAdmin was only a suggestion. you can always get one of the server wrappers that goes straight into the .jar

btw i suggest you should get runecraft and llamacraft
they work together, theyboth go straight into the .jar
LlamaCraft is an ANTI-Grief measure, it allows you to disable TNT, Lava Buckets, Fire etc.
It also allows you to destroy Adminium/Bedrock (using a flint and steel)
^^^ Thats especially helpful if you decide to go /give scotty 7 64 (7=Bedrock, 64 blocks of it)
RuneCraft is an awesome mod that adds runes to the game, allowing the creation of teleporters, secret doorways, special items(eg. firepick:automatically smelts items that it breaks) and even a Chrono Trigger (allows control of the Day/Night system)

Obviously not my call, but I vote no. Particularly on the Runecraft one. I'd much rather play the game how it was meant to be played than with a bunch of random cheats and custom crap.

What is it saying when you get DCed?

Also, an fyi, I built the "Imperial Highway" out of the back of Scott's castle.  That leads to Sky City, the floating city I'm in the process of building.  Don't mess with it, unless you're LeGuy, in which case I already gave you permission to build in the city.  Additionally, if anyone wants to build more highway, feel free to attach it to mine, so we can get a network of highways going.  Just make sure to mark the intersection with a sign so people can tell what goes where.

To not die at night, get inside. Build yourself a cave, or a hut. Make torches. As long as your not out in the open, or anywhere underground where they spawn, and you've got torches, your set.

Also, Scotty, is there no way you can make this accessible to us poor people? I really can not afford MineCraft right now.

Regular players are already unable to place lava and water.
This is not the case for TNT, however.

Also, for new people coming to the server, here are some areas of interest:
Scotty's Castle
Cero's Observatory
Cameron's Sky Garden (Now kinda ruined sadly)
Sky City by Chaos
Hell City by me and Ceroblitz
Epicphail and I's Hillside Resort
Port Town
Matt Rico's boat

Those are all the things off the top of my head. If I can get the game file from Scott I can use a program to create a topigraphical map of it and label it.

well with anti grief systems like Llama craft you can disable it for everyone but admins, and make it so using a flint and steel will make it dissapear (for those who can use it) for those that cant hitting it will detonate it (for them only) and make it dissapear for everyone else. No land damage will occur if someone who CANT use TNT attempts to detonate it.

Oooooh, okay.  Been asking around to see who did it, I assumed that was LeGuy's.  He told me today he didn't.  I did take it down, but I took the chest and placed it by the tree in the town center and placed everything I could salvage inside it.  It's not that I don't want people building houses there, I just want them to follow the general building guidelines I've kind of laid out.  City block platforms, with 2 wide paths connecting to them, with substantial length between each city block.  Two wide paths ON the city block going around your house so that more paths may be constructed off the city block.  There's some actual buildings and city blocks up, now, so anyone interested should be able to get a general idea of what I'm going for just by looking.

I hate TnT with an undying passion, considering the fact that I love caves so much, seeing mountains completely destroyed gets me pretty upset. But the most irritating part for me is that it looks really friggin ugly.

Anybody have a clue who keeps griefing other people's shit? Matt Ricos boat got set on fire, my bridge got set on fire, and somebody stole TNT from me and Cero's Hell City and laced it all over Cameron D's house....I mean, this shit is getting old...it is a community server after all.

Apologies to everyone, I was boxing in the TNT with obsidian and accidentally activated a piece. Needless to say TNT went flying _EVERYWHERE_. There are numerous craters around the place, the crystal gate was destroyed and some houses are missing a few blocks (nothing too major though). As for my house... well lets say I'm rebuilding, but I'm nothing short of unhappy :< Its kinda lame actually, this is a community server yet someone has to go running around doing crap like this? Sad? Just a bit, heck, I run a community server for another forum, and the people there are probably summed up best as unfriendly, yet there is no greifing over there at all. This seems like a much more welcoming community and something like this is the least that I would expect.

Anyway, back to rebuilding :3

Watch the episode where the Mythbusters blow up a cement truck, then imagine what happens when I decide I want the side of a mountain beyond leveled.  In fact, I'd imagine Satan is hella pissed after letting all the heat out of Hell with the crater we caused.

I had help. 

Lets try to put it into perspective with some math.  If each stick of dynamite is 20cm long, and approximately 2.5cm in diameter, and one block of TNT is effectively one meter squared, that is 5 sticks tall, by 40 sticks wide, totaling to 200 sticks per block of TnT.  Now the average weight of a single stick of TnT is .62lbs per stick.  So by the math, 200 sticks times 0.62lbs per stick equates to each block of TnT weighing in at 124lbs. 

Now lets go ahead start adding quantity.  I had the help of Chaos, Lucifer, Haon, and Cameron:D.  Each of us was give 2 64 stacks of TnT and told to place them throughout the landscape.  I also took one extra stack of 64, and for lack of knowing exact numbers, we'll say I used 40 to stack them into a tower so that I may imitate the scene in Armageddon where the man is humping the nuke, only this was certain to be detonated.  So by those numbers, 5 people times 2 stacks = 10 stacks times 64 TnT per stack = 640 stacks of TnT plus an additional 40 required to ride the bull equates to a total of 680 blocks of TnT being placed.  Now lets incorporate our math above:  680 total blocks, at 124lbs per block of TnT equates to 84,320lbs of TnT being detonated from the top of the bull.  Yep, you heard right, over 83k lbs of TnT being detonated!  At 2k lbs to a ton, that's 42 tons of TnT being detonated!

Now in this Mythbusters explosion: http://www.metacafe.com/watch/223919/mythbusters_blow_up_a_cement_truck/ they used a measly 850lbs of explosive agent (dynamite if I recall), so put that into the correct dynamite to thrill ratio, and you'll have something along the lines of "HOLY !@#$ING GOOSE BONER!"

Last time we did an explosion that big, we ruined our server and world. The TNT went flying, causing craters everywhere, half the world got flooded, and the server died. When we tried reopening the server, it could no longer load the map, and we lost all of our work. :( I hate TNT in the wrong hands now.

I did a blasting resistance test on different types of blocks.  I tested in this site:

(http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/4889/blastingtestsite.jpg)

With a 3x3x3 block of said material in the center, with the center block of the cube being TNT.  I light the TNT, place the final block, let 'er blow, and view the damage done to the cube, placed torches, and dirt blocks nearby.  Here are the results:

TNT Blasting resistance tests:
Dirt: 0/16 dirt blocks remaining, 0/8 torches standing, 0/26 material left standing.
-Resistance: None.
Glass: 0/16 dirt blocks remaining, 0/8 torches standing, 0/26 material left standing.
-Resistance: None.
Gravel: 4/16 dirt blocks remaining, 2/8 torches standing, 0/26 material left standing.
-Resistance: Mild.
Logs: 12/16 dirt blocks remaining, 6/8 torches standing, 0/26 material left standing.
-Resistance: Fair.
Wood: 16/16 dirt blocks remaining, 7/8 torches standing, 0/26 material left standing.
-Resistance: Decent.
Steel Block: 16/16 dirt blocks remaining, 8/8 torches standing, 0/26 material left standing.
-Resistance: Decent.
Cobblestone: 16/16 dirt blocks remaining, 8/8 torches standing, 0/26 material left standing.
-Resistance: Decent.
Diamond Block: 16/16 dirt blocks remaining, 8/8 torches standing, 0/26 material left standing.

Before I unban our resident terrorist/griefer, I need to get some griefer detection in place.  All I care about is logging who is placing TnT, Lava, etc...  If I can find out who is placing it, I can run backups as frequent as necessary, so that isn't an issue.  All I need is who and when.  Anyone have any ideas?  I checked out llamacraft and they don't have any sort of detection, just straight exclusion of certain features, which isn't necessarily what I want.

Just note, the game doesn't save frequently so you're going to need to make the server force a save before you do a backup or it wont back stuff up (There is probably a plug in to do it, the way I do it on my server is too hacky :3)

Yeah, obsidian is completely impervious to explosions. Perfect creeper-proofing material.

Regarding 'diamond', I really think the name of it should be changed. Seriously. It takes 15 seconds to mine redstone and obsidian(which is only a mere 5 on the Mohs scale compared to 10)and it's mined relatively easily. Due to the actual hardness of obsidian making it so a good replacement that would normally work not work due to the fact that it takes so long for the material to mine obsidian(such as jadeite, which has a Mohs hardness of about 7, I think), I feel like Apatite would work well.

...And regarding me trying to get on the server(boobs.servebeer.com), it's STILL not working for me. Gah, it's Vindictus all over again, except it's worse this time.  :'(

Well, it doesn't even have to be that. It could be emerald for all I care, which fits more now that I think about it(Mohs hardness of 7.5, but not nearly as bad as 10 losing to 5), but diamond is ridiculous.

Also, that's a mere trifle compared to me not getting on this community server, blah. I've been on others, sure, but this should be the most fun. I can't understand why it's not working, I've gotten on others several times.

I don't know what you are getting at, or what your point is, so I'll assume that you are saying that you should be allowed to duplicate items, and the basis is that there isn't anything other to than to craft.  So here is my response.

You are absolutely correct, there is nothing else to do than craft and build, so why ruin that as well?  You might as well go on a first-person shooter and turn on God mode, because there's nothing other to do than shoot people, so why not exploit the game so you can do whatever you want without any work and reward?  It ruins the purpose of the game entirely.  Even if there were monsters, I'd still be against duping, despite the fact that now you have to factor in watching your back to make sure a ghoul doesn't pop up behind you.

My ruling still stands, from here out, if you duplicate, you're gone.  Go ahead and throw me that "They'll never know" BS too, because nothing is more apparent than a 10 story castle of obsidian with several chests chocked full inside with water blocks and furnaces.

I agree, but thats not what im trying to say. Im fine with the game as is, and the only reason I put across this point is that the game is still quite in the early stages. I want the duping bug to be fixed as soon as possible ( hopefully this update), and everyone can play with the game how its supposed to be played.

I kinda agree with Cero that duping atm is that much of a big deal until getting resources becomes more difficult with the additoin of mobs and such. as long as it isnt duping TNT and water and such

Which people have been doing.  I raided people's houses today (specifically Pwnage's) for water tiles and destroyed all I managed to find.  Also confiscated some TNT from Scotty's castle's community chest as that was a REALLY bad place to leave it.  :/

Follow the rules people. Scott does not have to run a public minecraft server. Leave if you dont like it. I think these rules are reasonable.

I am actually all for not exploiting glitches. In the case of the water blocks, we were exploiting it because of the fact the buckets don't work...so that is the only current way to still hold an important aspect of the game. Honestly though, no duping would be nice...that way all of the buildings which have really nice stuff in them were worked for and not just quickly assembled.

Wasn't going to bother with it.  However, if people start chipping off pieces of your house to sell, then you might want to consider doing something about it yourself.  Personally, I'm going to be removing the diamond pillars in my house and replacing them with stone.

I imagine Scott would need to download the updated version of the server software before we'd be able to see any changes.  Supposedly, 'a bunch of multiplayer bugs have been fixed', but alas, apparently damage and carts won't be fixed til beta, and hell world currently doesn't work in multiplayer either.  :/

Meh, having a hard time connecting. So once the server updates it'll update all our clients automatically? Or do we have to go to the site and download the update? I'm a bit confused on this part.

Edit: Never mind, it seems to be working now. I guess everyone is flooding minecraft.net because of the update.

It did, but the idiot I am accidentally clicked out of it, so now I have to go through the fun process of reconnecting to minecraft.net while atleast half a million others are trying to do the same thing...

And now it seems my client didn't update after all, even though I SAW it updating previously...

Does the message you receive say something along the lines of "Disconnected by Server, Outdated Client!"? The funny thing is I was just playing single player, and came across a pumpkin. Looks like it updated after all, but still won't let me on SMP. I checked the official forums and others are getting the same problem as I am. Let's just hope there's a solution somewhere on the horizon...

That shit is intense....the nether is so dangerous you need a bow and arrow and a million golden apples to get anywhere....so crazy. Also, water doesn't work in the nether...so don't think you can put the fire out of yourself when you get hit by a fireball which does 5 heart damage and in addition starts burning you. This is like the hardest game !@#$ing ever. So scary too, I think it is safe to say this game now exceeds all categories of most other games before it is even in beta mode....and damn, it's a one-man project.....just wow, !@#$.

Well, I just started a single player file (I bought the game then jumped immediately into SMP after playing Classic for a few hours) and it's pretty different from SMP. Needless to say I'm still a newbie, so I haven't been able to collect enough obsidian to make myself a portal. But from hearing everyone's description of The Nether, I certainly won't be rushing to get to it, although I am curious to see it for myself.

Also, I found my pumpkin nestled on the side of a mountain, and I haven't seen another since. However, something tells me that they're randomly generated all over the map, seeing how (seemingly) rare they are...

That is if you die anywhere, me thinks. I died earlier today outside, and when I came back nothing was there.

I just got on it for a second, but I have a feeling Scotty is working on it right now. For example, the maximum amount of players allowed on changed from 50 to 20, player status has reset, and the sky is now reddish instead of black at night. It's either the update reverted the server to its default settings, or Scotty is messing around with them. Either way, it updated, but it's not quite ready to play on yet.

The nether area isn't bad, but offers nothing too awesome or interesting.

Just played the classic version and now I'm so sucked into it. lol

Edit: It's too slow, and I blame the server for keeping it on a webpage. There was another way, you know. >_>
Since I'm crashing a lot, I'm probably forced to create a personal version of it just to enjoy... Or I could buy the Alpha. :P

Edit Dos: Just bought the game. Gotten all my hopes up for something that loads for 30 minutes.
If it keeps this up, I'm gonna have to wait for it to load all night. Or am I doing something wrong???

I don't get it. When I open it, it wants me to log in. When I log in, I see a loading screen, but then it vanishes and then the game freezes. Take a look at this:

Online support. Thats why.

As for Minecraft, I've brought and played it a few times, its alright. Needs more content, so that means that I have to wait.

1) Re-download the client from the Minecraft website.

2) Make sure you have the latest version of Java installed.

QuoteReinstalling Minecraft

One of the common ways to fix an ailing Minecraft installation of various bugs is to simply re-install it. Removing the launcher itself (the file you downloaded) however will not remove Minecraft. The steps below should work for most people.
Windows

   1. Navigate to your Application Data Folder
          * On Windows XP and Vista: C:\Documents and Settings\\Application Data\Roaming
          * On Windows 7 C:\Users\\AppData\Roaming
   2. Double Click the .minecraft folder
   3. Copy out the saves folder to a different location
   4. Go back one directory (to where you can see .minecraft)
   5. Drag the .minecraft folder into the trash
   6. Start the Minecraft.exe file to re-download Minecraft
   7. Close Minecraft when you reach the title screen
   8. Copy the saves folder back into the new .minecraft folder. You can safely overwrite any data that's currently in this folder

Try that, except don't worry about the saves. The directory for you would be "C:\Documents and Settings\AFC Owner (2)\Application Data\.minecraft\".

Ok I tried it, but it still doesn't work. My welcoming title screen is a blank where any windows over it will leave a trail...

Thats's not you being scammed. That's your system having a problem with the game. Try using it on a different pc. Also restart your pc. Make sure you have your latest video drivers.
I'll try and find out about that.
Restarting did no effect...
I'll check.

Thank you. I'm sorry but it looks like your PC is a bit too low to handle Minecraft at this point. Minecraft is alpha software right now and may get better. This game takes a good amount of CPU and ram to power to run. But I have tried to run Minecraft on pc's like yours and here are some suggestions:

1.Make the game window a smaller.
2.Change the graphics to "fast" in the options
3.Change the drawl distance in the options or by pressing "f" in game.
4.Make sure nothing else is running in the background.

5.Play online multiplayer, this helps a lot. It takes a lot of the stress of simulation the game off your pc and leaves it for the server. The downside of this is you cant have enemies that can hurt you yet and its buggy at some points.

Last ditch options:
1.Keep coming back to this topic. Some one here may help.
2.Get a new pc.
3.Keep checking this game for updates.

I'm pretty sure Notch offers refunds. I don't know who you should contact, but I can safely say that Notch's email probably gets flooded all the time, so that's not the best way for a quick answer. Perhaps contacting the company's financial guy would be the best choice, but I don't even know if Notch ever revealed ways to contact him.

I can confirm, it is most likely that your computer simply cannon handle this game. I run the game fairly smoothly...I hardly ever lag in single player even with my HD texture pack and so forth. Here are my computers specs:
(Right click, view image to enlarge)
(http://img600.imageshack.us/img600/2586/myspecs.png)

As you can see, I have A LOT more free memory than you do, which is essential to a game like this. Your computer seems to have less than 20% free memory which is always bad. I recommend 2 things:

If you want to continue trying on your computer, try to remove useless programs and backup data so that you can free up some space on your hard drive. As a rule of thumb, you usually want a little over 20% free memory AT LEAST. Also, in your game settings, use fast graphics and a low render distance. These are all thing that may optimize your game. Also, running the game maximized makes your computer prioritize it more over other processes, so you may want to consider that...or if you know how to, just manually set priority.

Also, you could try just playing on a better computer. Realize that you didn't really buy the game client with your purchase...you bought an account. A user name and password, an account is what you bought. You can go onto any computer with the Minecraft client, log in, and play it. You were not scammed, that's what you payed for, no real need in trying to seek a refund.

Thanks guys. But I don't see how the game takes so much space. I mean... a block alone shouldn't take much space just to exist. Drawing may take a lot of space but it's not visible... All I know is that I should get a new PC. This computer is 7 years old.

The game is infdev. Basically when you run out of building room on Minecraft alpha, you never notice because the game generates more land in that direction before you reach the border. The game is most likely programmed to check for suitable space before it even attempts to make a series of generations on a computer in case that computer has very low free memory, which is true in the case of yours. The game is actually saving you by refusing to run, if you think about it.

SMP Health update is out! (http://notch.tumblr.com/)

Just a heads up, my server is currently down.  I am awaiting for things to settle down, as there seems to be a few bugs with the update, and instead of continuously updating and taking down the server over and over, I am going to wait until the evening to update it, hoping that the bug fixes are completed, and that an updated hMod is released.  I'll post an update when I get it running.

EDIT: It appears as though the hMod might be delayed since the main developer claims he doesn't have internet.  If by tonight the hMod update isn't released, or there isn't a fan based alternative, I will likely just update the server, using just the minecraft server without the wrapper.

Been trying to get a local server running for me and 2 friends. Server crashes and fails after just a few minutes of running, and many things don't work in it currently. So I'll just have to wait till the next update; albeit, I'm really excited for when everything gets fixed.

Yeah, I've tried it on a couple computers now. I mean, when we first started out, it was running great for a good 15 minutes. Then the first disconnect occurred, and it literally dropped the internet connection of the computer running the server. Every time we had to restart the connection and then the server, and it would just keep breaking down after 5 minutes (sometimes even less), and we'd have to keep restarting the computer.

Me and Pwnage have been fixing up Port Town, and have worked on building it some defenses, such as watch towers and some wooden walls.

Additionally:

QuoteSo far today, I?ve done this:
* Swords and other weapons now deal damage properly
* Added proper hurt animations and sounds to mobs and players
* Fixed dead players logging in as invisible ghosts
* Made arrows visible and deal damage
* Hoes now produce proper seeds
* Creepers make noises and animate before exploding
* Explosions animate properly
* No more infinite free arrows

I?m currently working on trying to fix levers, pressure plates and buttons in SMP. They act a bit weird.

Because the update will require updating both the client and the server, I will wait with doing the update until I?m done with this round of bug fixes, so the update is coming tomorrow.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Scotty on November 30, 2010, 02:59:32 PM
Notch just released the newest patch that corrects almost all of the bugs that originated in the SMP health update a week back.  I'll be home in approximately 2 hours, hopefully giving Hey0 enough time to update hMod so that I can promptly update the server.  Sit tight until then.  If hMod isn't updated, then I will update further in this topic keeping the regulars on the server up to date!
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Chaos on November 30, 2010, 03:37:26 PM
Yep, full release notes:

QuoteBug update #3.

The client version is now 1.2.4
The server version is now 0.2.6 (mandatory update, there?s been protocol changes)

Bug fix list:

* Swords and other weapons now deal damage properly
* Added proper hurt animations and sounds to mobs and players
* Fixed dead players logging in as invisible ghosts
* Made arrows visible and deal damage
* Hoes now produce proper seeds
* Creepers make noises and animate before exploding
* Explosions animate properly
* No more infinite free arrows
* Server logging now appends to server.log rather than overwriting it
* Buttons and levers (and a few other blocks probably, it?s a general solution) animate properly
* Fixed minecarts (and pigs!) moving twice as fast as they should when ridden.
* The join server screen now remembers the last entered ip
* Increased chunk saving frequency on the server
* Leaving sneak mode no longer triggers a million sounds
* You can now see sneaking players
* Names of sneaking players aren?t visible through walls, and are visible a much shorter distance
* Snowballs!!

I?ll monitor for bugs for a while, then head home!

[edit:]

Server 0.2.6_01 no longer gives everyone 64 snowballs on connecting

[edit:]

Server 0.2.6_02 and client 1.2.4_01 now spawn other monsters than ONLY CREEPERS EVERYWHERE

How do you make the little shop signs?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Chaos on December 01, 2010, 04:43:48 AM
With the new economy plugin, to setup shop, you place a sign in this format:

1st line:  "[your name]" (Doesn't matter, it'll generally change the line to your name.)
2nd line:  "buy" or "sell"  (Place 'buy' to allow people to buy this item from your shop.  Place 'sell' to allow people to sell this item to your shop.)
3rd line:  "[item id] [# in bundle]"  (the id number of the item you want buying or selling, and how many you want to in a bundle.)
4th line:  "[cost]"  (how much you're selling/buying that particular item for)


So, for example, if I wanted to sell a bundle of 10 torches (item id of 50) in my shop for 20 coin, I would put:

magnumomega
buy
50 10
20

Once you have your buy and/or sell sign up for a particular item, you can place a blank sign adjacent, and then type into chat "/sign stock [item id] [amount]".  This will place the indicated amount of items into your shop's stock, and change the blank sign to the item name and amount in stock to reflect this.

From this point, you can simply right click on one of these shop signs with an empty hand to buy or sell from that sign.


Additionally, some commands:

To see how much money you currently have: /money
To manually pay someone money: /money pay [username] [amount]

Another (non-mandatory) update:
QuoteClient version 1.2.5
Server version 0.2.7 (not mandatory, but you might want to update anyway)

* Fixed a rather bad memory leak bug in the server (entity position updates accumulated in orphaned player objects)
* Riding carts and boats now works properly when you travel long distances.
* Harvesting crops no longer yields fake seeds
* Removed /home (sorry!)
* Snowballs again!

Chaos, looks like this might resolve the issue you were having last night where you would get kicked and your character would still linger in game.

Plus he makes mention of taking a look at server-side inventory, which if I am not mistaken, is synonymous with item duplication and chests.  He states once that and a few other things are updated, it's beta time!  That means that if you still want it for the cheap price of ~$14, get it now before beta is released and the price hikes up!

c30x has been banned for griefing.  It appears as though he managed to ransack most of Snakeman's chests within his cabin, then lighting it on fire (10 times, all different spots), and leaving nothing but a sign behind saying "Sorry!"

Griefing will not be tolerated, ensure your friends are well aware before sharing this server's information with them.

As Scotty said, we had an epic expedition the other day.

Once morning arrived, we set out in a random direction, following Chaos's lead towards the unknown! I took a few screenshots of our initial journey, and first stop.

If you're unable to spend money on the intrawebs, try to find someone that can. The website has a gifting system, where they can pay to give an account the "paid" status, and thus allowing you to go on that account and use it online.

As Scotty said, we had an epic expedition the other day. We stored all of our stuff, then everyone was given till morning to gather wooden tools (Pick/Axe/Shovel/Sword), ~10 Torches, ~1 Meat/Bread, and whatever leather armor you could get your hands on. Once morning arrived, we set out in a random direction, following Chaos's lead towards the unknown! I took a few screenshots of our initial journey, and first stop.

Btw, got a sign set-up on the Port Town message board to sell me iron ingots for 8 'booblies' (that's our currency) apiece.  Full 64 stack is worth 512 booblies!  Right click on the 'sell' sign with empty hand to sell any you got in your inventory!


Also, Scott, please take a look at the money system.  I don't care if you make it so people gain NO money per hour and lose NO money per hour, but right now, it's draining people's money.  I had over 700 yesterday, and had 612 when I was just on, and I have NO sell signs built except for the Iron Ingot one I built JUST now, so I wasn't losing money that way.  Economic system isn't gonna work if no one has any money to spend because it is bleeding out their pockets.

No, "they will all" completely ignore your money and shop system.  No one will buy anything because they have no money, and no one will sell anything because there's no point in having money, as it will be gone by the next day.  Not to mention that, even if they did sell things, no one will buy anything from them because they have no money!  If you don't fix it, you may as well remove it, because at this rate, it's going to get the same amount of use either way.

Prosper, Snakeman, Ceroblitz, Epicphail and I went out to the outpost far (really far!) west from Port Town and decided to refurbish it a bit. Not only did we spruce it up, but Prosper spent a good 2 - 3 hours prior building a cobblestone path to it from underneath his biodome in Port Town. Anyways, here's what we did!

I hate all the glitches on Multiplayer.

The over fence thing was very retarded. You're unable to move and the camera won't either. Sometimes when it happens, I think I'm stuck.

The cruelest glitch happened today.
When you destroy your chest with items in it, you can't get them back unless you have absolutely nothing in your inventory. I spent 7 hours collecting just about everything. I lost my redstone, some coal, GOLD BLOCKS, iron blocks, all my wood, gravel, (I wanted flint) flint, torches, feathers, and oh my cod I had so much in there I can't remember now. I did manage to get my wool and iron blocks (YAY) but that was it. It's like I started over, except I landscaped a lot and have a little headstart.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Lucifer on December 10, 2010, 10:40:55 PM
Erm, that doesn't happen to me. When I destroy a chest, everything drops on the floor, and I can pick everything up just fine. Sometimes it glitches and they appear still on the floor after being picked up, but disconnecting and reconnecting fixes andyleftover memory of them. I've never heard of having to completely clear your inventory in order to pick up items after destroying a chest.

The fence bug is infuriating, though, christ... accidentally jump over one and you can find yourself stuck for minutes, and reconnecting doesn't always help. Hopefully this will be fixed in the future.

Double-postin'

Just fyi to everyone, the subway track from Scott's Castle to Arcadia Island is now fully usable.  While the station is still under construction at the moment, the booster tracks are now in place both ways, so if you have your own minecart, you may ride the rails back and forth.  Simply walk down the tunnel til you reach the first booster track, place your cart on the right rail just before the booster, then push the cart a little and quickly jump in.  Once it hits the booster, you're on your way.

Starting at Port Town, just follow the road. Go wherever it points to Scott's Castle. If you follow the road and go where the signs say at every intersection, you should arrive at a plaza of sorts, with a fountain in the middle. One of the buildings in that plaza is the subway station.

The way the level generation system in Minecraft works is that it is composed of "chunks", which are basically squares of the world and are saved in their own separate files which save all the data within the chunk.

Thus, if you reach a part of the world that has not been generated yet, the game will create a brand spankin' new chunk right then and there and save it to the world files, and you can pretty much expand the world's boundaries on your own if you should very well please to do so.

If your "friend" was the one who torched a good portion of Port Town, you have no idea how much I'll hate you for it.

Anyways, we were hit by another grief attack. We lost one of Port Town's city walls, that little wooden house out by the outskirts of Port Town, and Ceroblitz's giant tree that was also out in the outskirts. I've already talked to Scott about it, and whenever he returns from his idling spree, I'm sure he'll look into the logs and take necessary action.

By now, with all the retarded griefing going on, I propose the server be closed to the public and a whitelist be in order, and there being two ways of joining the server:

1. Appeal: You post in this thread, and the general Stick Online Minecraft community review it. If you are someone other than a random "lol just joined yesterday can i join ur server plz?!?!?!?!?!" and have proven not to be an assclown, we'll probably let you in.
2. Invite: If you've been whitelisted, you're more than welcome to request some friends of yours to be added to the fun, no problem. However, if they're caught griefing, both them, and YOU, the one who suggested they be let in, should be banned. Thus, if you plan to invite a colleague into the server, you better be DAMN sure they aren't a douche, or you'll be paying for it just as much as they will be.

So, yeah, there's my proposal. Discuss. I'll return to trying to clean up the giant inferno that was once Cero's tree now.

Finished my first real project on the server.

(http://img819.imageshack.us/img819/1470/minecart.png)

It's a booster at one of the train stations (forgot which one). It only works when a minecart (with a player in it) is on the pressure plate. This eliminates that possibility of you missing your cart and it flying off to the sunset (or so to speak). It is able to sent the player to the next booster (along the track), so that makes it a success.

EDIT - Upon further testing I encounter an bug - when everyone logs out, the minecarts (in my booster) get stuck in the wall when someone logs back in. I have to figure out a walk-around - but that is for tomorrow.

I died last night and lost all my stuff, so I ragequitted civilization. I ran off into a random direction, found an island, and make an epic, amazing treefort. I was beginning work on an underground travel hub and had a giant heap of supplies and tools. The entire process took at least 5 hours.

I logged on to check on it today and we had gone back to a previous server save file.

Whoever Shadsterwolf is, he's banned for using over 100 flint and steels across port town.  I've also rolled back to a backup that was done before he logged in, so if you notice there not being stuff that you did last night, that's why.

I'll be investigating a few anti-griefer ideas today.

I !@#$ing KNEW that guy was a damn griefer. I honestly wanted to go stalk him and spawnkill him right then and there because he was so damn suspicious, but that wouldn't have been the best course of action for a paranoia spark.

As a general rule, if there is a reported (substantial) grief attack, cease all construction until I have a look.  If it is substantial enough, I will revert back to an old backup, and everything will be lost.  So for the sake of a timely reload from a backup and minimal down time, ensure that if you spot a griefer's work, to let me or Chris know, and if you see people log on, inform them that a grief attack occurred, and be cautious about doing anything super productive.

Right click builds, left click destroys (you have to hold it down). To enter Survival Mode, go to the site and either play it through the browser (labeled Alpha), or download the client.

Just wanted to mention that the player 'Shadsterwolf' is someone I know. He was at my house while I was using the computer and noticed the minecraft topic and saw the IP for the server here. I told him him he could try it and play on it but didn't know he would destroy the stuff people worked on. He also mentioned it wasn't the first time he had done it, so any other small changes or alterations could have been him also. This post isn't asking to give him another chance or anything, I just wanted to mention it wasn't someone from the community here.

I have the client downloaded. There is Singleplayer, Multiplayer, Mods and Texture Packs, and Options. Is there supposed to be a Survivor button somewhere, or is Singleplayer Survivor mode?

Punch trees to get wood.  Use wood to make tools.  Use tools to mine stone and dig dirt (or dig dirt with your hands).

I highly agree with this, since the forums are public and are in full view to guests (At least, all the non-admin sections, if any admin boards exist.)

Anybody can easily stumble across the forums, spot the topic, and then waltz in and begin the onslaught on Port Town.

I propose Scotty add LeafDropper (http://forum.hey0.net/showthread.php?tid=797) until Notch fixes leaves.

In short, it constantly removes leaves that aren't connected to wood.

I created a new world and spawned next to a HUGE wall of sand and stone. I Made a workbench and made myself a wooden pickaxe, I continued on and scaled up the huge sandy wall and built a cave inside it. I used surrounding rocks to build a better pickaxe and a sword. Sadly I did not have time to find a source of light, so here I am in a tiny dark cave with a spider right outside.

I must say, he's definitely kicking ass with pumping out bug updates:

Quote* Working server-side inventory! Finally! (And as a result of that, a whole pile of bugs and issues got fixed)
* Made SMP servers save chunks way less often in most cases. Chunks don?t resave if they got saved in the last 30 seconds
* Moving too far away from a container, or having it blow up, closes the inventory screen
* Fixed /kill
* Introduced leaf decay again. It acts differently from before
* You can now throw eggs
* On a whim, added super exclusive clan cloaks for Mojang Employees
* .. and something else, which is even more rare

Anyone have any leads on the "something else" that he mentioned in the last bullet?

I think a lot of people lack the understanding of an application's life cycle with regards to the different stages of release.  Alpha is primarily meant for inventing features and releasing experimental code with less emphasis on stability.  Obviously a certain level of stability is required to ensure that users of the software can actually test these features, but it is not as heavily emphasized as what a beta release would concentrate on.  Beta is meant primarily for mass testing, stabilizing and moving towards a full on production release client, with less emphasis on experimental code.  This has to suck for Notch, as so many have purchased his game under the false guise that it is a full on release client, and not a (now) beta release.  They expect the infrastructure and stability of Amazon, and receive the product of an independent developer's work.

    * You can now throw eggs.
          o Throwing an egg has a chance of spawning a chicken.
    * Added super exclusive clan cloaks for Mojang Employees.
    * A rare mob called Pigmen added
    * Tooltips in inventory - When you mouse over an item, its name appears.
    * You can't store things in the inventory crafting fields anymore.
    * Dungeons are more common

THAT was most definitely not on Minepedia, it just contained the information in Scotty's post. I looked for evidence of said claim for well over 10 minutes, and can't find anything about it. Pigmen are in the game's coding, but not used. If you have evidence to the contrary, I'd love to see it.

I'm waiting to see if hMod is going to be updated for beta.  If by the end of tonight it isn't, I may revert back to the regular minecraft server.  It probably wouldn't be too wise of an action to take, since as of saying that, it pretty much gives free reign to the griefers here to have loose on the server as I patiently await for the hMod update.  I will post again when it is back up and running, sit tight.

Not without hMod we can't.

They were supposed to be a single spawning monster. I'm not sure if it changed, but I believe they spawn in herds like the other mobs.

Because if it works like it says, im gonna be banned because of a douchebag friend :P

That tells me that you may want to be selective about who you give access to.  If you suspect that one of your "douchebag friends" might screw you over, then why risk giving them access?  Because you trust them when they say "Don't worry brewskiminicalidulihooplabrosif (or however Yankal puts it to sound hip and current on the gang-speak), I'll play nice with others"?  Sounds to me like you have some rather distrustful friends.  If you get banned because of your "friends", trust in my words that I will not show compassion for those who may get screwed because they enabled a griefer to play on my server.  Sorry, I'm not as tolerant as Meiun may be with his game.  A ban is a ban, and my final decision will always lean towards the enjoyment of the server's user base as a whole, and not towards individuals with poor judgement.

Sorry if it sounds rash, but that's how it is.

No No, if MCBans ARE global bans then if he bans me from a server hes op on, then if that in turn affects your banlist, i will be banned. The reason for him MCBanning me is because my MC server was kicking him for the fact that his connection was WAY too laggy and his client couldnt keep up. It has nothing to do with your server, just wether you have global banlist updates from MCBan

Well then my lack of knowledge regarding how MCBans works likely answers your question!  :P

Am I correct in assuming that such a plugin actually holds a central database containing all the bans across multiple servers, and anyone who is banned on one server through this mod is banned on any other server that also utilizes this mod?  Sounds a bit... unreliable and stupid to be quite honest, especially if it's for something like a crappy connection.  I can see the utility in such a capability for griefers, and reporting them so that other servers don't get screwed by them, but for poor connection speeds?

That is of course, unless I am way off in left field about all of this.

No, my friend had bad connection to ME, so I banned him (i dont have MCBans) because he was using up a shitload of the data constantly reconnecting and disconnecting every 5 seconds, so he banned my from some other server that had MCBans which is supoosedly global. But banning on one server probly just recommends it to the others,, theres a list including reasons and stuff.

lol yeah I was building a 7 cube massive wall around the area I was claiming and wanted to replace some sand blocks with cobblestone.  I figured I know it's night but heck nothing is going to get through if I mine these two bottom blocks it's only a 2 x 1 hole.  Sure sh#t if as soon as I mined that 2x1 hole if a spider didn't jump in :-\

My brother (Beastman/Theskyisblue/Belac R) is building a complex underground tunnel system under his world. It's his own underground layer, and it looks pretty cool! He has spent hours on it. Pictures will come later.

He also encountered a bug. He was on an island that had one of his tunnel entrances at night when sheep and chickens started spawning there. He was able to box one of the sheep into his lair to the point where it couldnt escape. It vanished at dawn. O.o

So, what with the game now being in beta and the duping bug supposedly being fixed, and us having an economy mod, me and Scott have pondered starting up a new map.   Before such a thing would happen, we want to hear people's opinions. 

Are people interested in getting a fresh start for beta and starting up a new map?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Ceroblitz on December 24, 2010, 01:59:27 AM
depends... Starting a new map would basically restart all the great things we have done, but it gives a more nice feeling to it with starting anew. Keeping the old map may be nice even though it is effing huge, for the memory and all the work...

Well, Id be fine with starting a new map.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Chaos on December 24, 2010, 02:02:58 AM
Well, if we were to start a new map, Scott would back-up the old map.  If we ever wanted to change back, it would be entirely possible.
Title: Re: Minecraft

Title: Re: Minecraft

If we are to start a new map, I say we schedule it for a day when everyone can play. That way we can get the world off with a running start.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Scotty on December 24, 2010, 02:30:21 AM
Keep in mind that in due time, we always run the inherent risk of losing the backup map due to future possible incompatibilities with future releases down the road.

I am away from my server, home for the holidays and all, but if hey0 can get his update out tomorrow, I'll be able to remote into my laptop from my phone and update it, so we'll just wait and see. If anyone notices the release of hey0s mod, shoot me a pm here and I'll get on it once I can.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Snakeman on December 24, 2010, 03:00:26 AM
I say no restarting. Not until I finish the things I'm currently toying with at the moment. It'd be pretty disappointing to start working on something, only to have a new map loaded in right in the middle of trying to finish it up.

Alternatively, Scott could toss the map files to another SO patron that wishes to host, and they can host it as the official SO freebuild server, with Scott's being the official exploration/economy/settling server.

Everyone apparently is obsessed with making large domes or spheres, I think I'm going to assign Jake to the mission of making an extravagantly large penis that floats above the ground, Snakeman, feel free too give him a handjob

I dunno. This server is plagued by areas completely farmed of trees, abused by TNT, or entirely in flames. Sky City & Port Town still have tons of blocks obtained before duplicating was banned, and much of it is frankly ugly to walk through. But there are also a lot of truly awesome things that people have surely poured a lot of effort into, and we can always move off in different unexplored directions.

If we keep this current server, I'd really appreciate it if warp points were made in all of the major cities. They'd just act as spawn points, so we don't have to walk from port town to wherever our house is located. No other warps, just locations that have been colonized by the majority of players, like Sky City, Port Town, and Arcadia.

*edit*
There is of course the subway, but having to get yourself a cart in order to just get back to your house is ridiculous. Maybe just a return of the /home command and no warps?

If we kept the current server, this is likely what would happen.  A) I would move days upon days out in the middle of nowhere to replace the initial spawn location far far away.  Keep in mind, this delays the server being started up for the community.  B) I would most definitely not place any warps at the old locations, as that is where all the duped items are at.  C) I would delete everyone's data files to include their inventories, D) I would have to delete everyone's money.

We have three options.  (1) Start over with new map, (2) keep same map but move way out to BFE, with little or no hope of finding your way back or (3) don't do anything at all.

But there are also a lot of truly awesome things that people have surely poured a lot of effort into, and we can always move off in different unexplored directions.

This paragraph shares my views pretty much perfectly. The server has a lot of fascinating and intricate buildings and areas, and I don't necessarily want to toss them away so hastily. However, much like Luci said, there are many areas that are, quite obviously, torn apart haphazardly and without any good repair. And being one that obsesses over the uniformity and neatness of areas, even outdoor ones, this very well bothers me.

However, again, it would bother me, to an extent, to restart the entire server map as it is, because, again as I've said, I've got a few projects up in the works that I've been devising, and two out of the three were made for multiplayer interaction.

All in all, I personally don't want to start fresh out of the deep blue quite so hastily, but if the majority calls for an entire new revamp, then I won't try to fight 'till the end for it. I just want to get it out there that I'd like to enjoy the current server a tad longer first, and maybe tie up some loose ends.

While the current server's map is in purgatory, I decided to see what all the fuss was about regarding The Nether. So I gathered up some diamonds, mined myself obsidian, and built a portal!

For the first time seeing The Nether, I was pretty impressed with what Notch has done. And no, I don't know how to use Youtube or Google image. :P

And on a completely different note, I decided to be proactive and began designing a minecart station in case we start over on a new map. It's very rudimentary, but fully functional. I also hooked up the cart return mechanism to the cart delivery system just for fun.

Cut a small cave into a wall that you can light up and block most of the enterance to (I just leave 1 block open to see out..) to make it through the night as a temporary spot while you make your main base during the day..

Trying to decipher what you're saying, I'm assuming you are being bombarded by creepers?  If so, there isn't much I can do about that.  I even checked to see if there was a plugin to throttle back the amount of creepers spawned, and the only things I came up with was disabling them entirely, which I won't do, or setting safe areas where they won't explode and do damage.

If you are lagging, thus can't see them before they explode, I might be able to look into that.  In fact, I've already attempted to renice the process and allocate twice the memory usage to the server, which users have claimed improved performance quite a bit.  Might I suggest trying again if this was the case?

Okay... so... I've never played, and have generally ignored this topic for the most part... but... then my little brother found out about it and is going crazy. He made my mom buy him the game on Christmas morning. He keeps asking me about it and I keep telling him that I'll come here and ask about it seeing as I know nothing.

So, what's the deal? He bought the full version and downloaded the beta, and he was able to get in and play the single player just fine. He even went ahead and downloaded some tool that allows you to modify your inventory. So he was having fun with that. But, how do you access the server here? I tried typing the server name into the field when you click multiplayer, but it doesn't seem to work. It is something to do with the new beta that came out?

What message does it give out?

Notch apparently said that the beta won't receive any major updates after the time that you buy it, only minor bug fixes and whatnot. That might have something to do with it.

Quote from: Lingus on December 27, 2010, 06:22:17 PMBut, how do you access the server here? I tried typing the server name into the field when you click multiplayer, but it doesn't seem to work. It is something to do with the new beta that came out?

1. Check to see that the server name is correct (I'll assume you have done from this).
2. Check firewall settings to allow minecraft to access the internet (Again I'll assume you have done this).
3. Depending on the error message - you might get a "Took too long to log in" one. I often get this when trying to get on the server it usually takes multiple attempts to log in into the server.

It is unlikely that the beta version has changed anything (in terms of connecting/logging in SMP servers) from the Alpha version. But as Epic said it's best for us to know the error message that you've been getting.

For the record, Notch has said that those who bought in Beta won't get any of the content updates beyond the FULL RELEASE of the game.  So, if Notch decides to build some expansion stuff after the game goes full release, everyone except for those who bought in Alpha will have to purchase that content separately.  Additionally, EVERYONE will get bug patches for free.

Ah, misread it and thought everyone except Alpha players won't get any major releases UNTIL the Release, where everyone gets that.

Looks like SimpleCraft (http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=1021&t=104854).

I use a simple texture pack when I feel like it. In fact, the screenshots with the obscene amounts of signs I put up a few pages back show it off. I don't think I had the Better Light plugin installed at that time though, so it doesn't strike out.
Title: Re: Minecraft

Epic is correct that is SimpleCraft. I also use the better light mod. The texture pack is good becuase you miss less ores while underground.

Man the creepers are extra annoying but I built me a lava moat that seems to help auto-kill the night time mobs and built my mine and working on my glass skyscraper.

All very near the spawn if anyone needs to use it for temporary shelter if they don't like the basic spawn shelter currently in place.

You should consider a water moat that drowns mobs, and pulls their loot into a pool for collection.

Mobs drown?  News to me I'll have to add that in addition to lava moat.  There is an area in front of my skyscraper where the lava moat is mostly useless.

Only if completely submerged, like humans. There's a cool system on Youtube.

The essential thing is having currents pull the mob under the sea and keep them there until they die.

I feel compelled to re-iterate what I define a griefer as, and how I will be dealing with them.

Being a griefer can be defined as either intentionally or accidentally damaging the work of others.  Good examples of intentional griefing would be TnT'ing someone's house, or burning down their log cabin.  Accidental griefing is a bit more vague if not understand fully.  Dragging a creeper along behind you in a well established area that is being worked on, or has been worked on, having it blow up, and then not fixing the holes caused by the creeper would be a good example.

Accidental creeper blowups in remote desolate areas where it is unlikely one will travel, or has not yet been developed does not constitute being a griefer.

If you cause a creeper to explode in a popular or developed area that someone has worked on, you fix it.  If you blow up someone's work, you fix it, if you light it on fire, you fix it.  If you fail to fix what you have griefed either intentionally or accidentally, I will ban you.  There are no second chances hence forth.  If Chaos or I catch you getting blown up and not taking the time to fix it, you will be banned.

No excuses.  If you lack the materials, find them and fix it.

I convinced Macro to let me get a modest plot of land up in his floating island area.  He's like his own HOA and requires a certain building style and city codes that must be followed but it's all in keeping with the spirit of his collaborative idea.

I don't think my mob trap works :l I have no idea why. It might be because there's a pocket of air below the barrier blocks, to keep them from going down the drain into my cave.

So basically, what I did is this.

I took a 7x7x3 square embedded into the ground, put two blocks on each corner going the same direction, dug one layer off of the sides, put spring blocks on the ledges, and made a 3x3x1 square above a drain going down into my cave, one block off the ground to block the monsters off.

Just something I noticed though, some newb blows up half the spawn shelter (not sure who they ran away and being my skyscraper is right there I was close enough to notice) so I tried to start filling in the hole but since it's too close to the spawn the blocks kept disappearing so I couldn't even fix their mistake  :-\.

Just because it looks like you have the same video card does not mean you do. Some time video cards come out in series and the drive's only see them by that. Also make sure your video drivers are up to date.

Also just because your cpu is clocked higer means nothing. A I7 at 2ghz is like 16x faster than a P4 at 3ghz. Minecraft is a cpu heavy game so make sure you have a good one.

Ram is strait forward. The more the better. If you can provide you PC specs. Also lowering your view distance and turning graphics to fast in Minecraft can help alot.

If you play online and you are getting a lot of lag and offline you dont it could be your internet or the server internet or the server specs are not good. Most likely its your internet. Slow/bad network speed can effect your fps and ping on Minecraft (really only when loading new land as the game w8ts for it to be sent).

QuoteSo it’s the first working day of the year, and we’ve got two more people in the office now. Carl Manneh and Tobias Möllstam. And we’ve got the entire office as well now.

AND.. just a few minutes ago, I found out that Minecraft got three nominations for the Independent Games Festival (Grand Prize, Technical Excellence, and Excellence In Design). So this means I definitely will be going to the GDC this year! :D

On Wednesday, we’ll have a strategy meeting of sorts and try to work out some vague plans and try to decide how to drive Minecraft beta development and try to define what the finished game will actually be. We won’t start work on modding or anything like that before then.

But! We (especially Jens) have added a bunch of new content to Minecraft that we want to get out asap, so there will be a content patch update next week with a whole pile of fun new toys, including a water mob and quite possibly paint if we can figure out how exactly it should work.

(Oh, and Minecraft will hit 1 million sales soon, and I have NO idea how to celebrate that! There’s no time to plan anything!)

I have finished my arena. A bit small, the fighting area is like 9x9. I was thinking 81 squares is good. It is anti-monster because torches are all inside and it is tall & fenced. Has 4 rows of seats and has a little tunnel around the base. It is completely made of cobblestone, which used up about 9 stacks. Also there is a little path on top of it that doesn't have any ladders. Don't mess with it, I'll put the ladders.
If you look to the right of the path surrounded by cactus from the original spawn house, you'll find a cobblestone path one square wide up a hill under a giant tree. If you follow it, you'll find the arena.

...That was some long sentences, and they're not even run-on. :P
By the way, I may edit this post and show a screenshot.

Lies!

Anyways, I've finished the departure section of the minecart station, so once the server's back online I encourage anyone and everyone to test it out for me. In other words, I defy you to mess up the system without destroying anything. That way I can account for any possible human errors I may have overlooked, as well as more test data to adjust booster track lengths, the delay in redstone circuits, etc. I'll probably have to move the button that calls the cart a bit forward, so you can't press it while waiting for the booster cart to send you out; that kind of thing. I've already made it impossible for someone to call for multiple carts, but feel free to try it anyways. Of course, I can't prevent you from destroying the cart, purposely getting out of the cart and calling for another, or anything else of a malicious nature. Just be a little rough with it as this will be for public transportation.

For those who don't know where it is, it's just west of the spawn. If you follow Draxx's cobblestone path from there, it'll dump you out at the Town. From there find the halfstep pathway leading out to the house in the middle of the bay; that's the entrance. Oh, and I'm not sure if there's a cactus on the track still, so be careful of that... Yurchel has been booby-trapping my station lately.

Funny, just got the server up as you posted that.

EDIT: For clarification, I got a new router, and the port forwarding for it is ridiculously bugged in such an annoying way that it seriously took two days to figure it out.  For those who have tried to port forward before, I'll explain in the event you have a Belkin router and are experiencing similar issues.  The router gives you twenty slots to use for port forwarding.  When I attempted to enter the minecraft info in the first of twenty entries, I would get an error saying "No2.The IP address you entered is invalid" (improper spacing and everything), and for the love of God, I couldn't figure out what the hell was wrong, as the only thing I entered was the minecraft port info in the first entry.  Sure enough, in every single one of the twenty inputs, there's a description box, and the router by default puts in two spaces in each entry's description box, so when you attempt to submit the form, it thinks that you have twenty invalid/incomplete entries because of those two spaces.  You have to go through all twenty description inputs and manually delete the two spaces so that it doesn't think you attempted to submit twenty entries because they are too !@#$ing incompetent to fix such an annoying and show stopping bug.

@Scotty: You should get the hMod plugin MinecartMania
it gives you HEAPS more stuff to do with them
Gold Blocks = %100 speed for a great amount of time (similar to a booster cart)
Obsidian blocks stop minecarts, theres a block that kicks you out of the cart and the cart will keep going, you can set up systems where carts are in a chest, you just hit a button and itll spawn the cart on the launch pad, get in, hit another button to send the cart flying away, etc. Check it out!

So, Yurchel found a pretty cool Tundra biome recently, and I decided to check it out for myself. While I was scoping it out, I came across this.

/](http://www.[forbiddensite]/up/a58773d35f9094afb0c032f33e619223.PNG) (http://[forbiddensite)

It was filled with sand when I first found it, but I saw a rim of cobblestone around the bottom edges. Curious, I called Yurchel over and we both dug it out. This is probably the shallowest dungeon I've ever come across! We're going to wait until night to see what it spawns. ;D

I sort of doubt that there are anywhere near even a single "hundred million" software engineers in the world. There is actually a shortage of them compared to how highly in demand they are in a lot of places. At least I know that was how things were a few years back.

Despite what the Washington Post would have Americans believe, I've seen a tremendous need for software engineers in the Gov't field, maybe even more so in the future regarding security.  In fact, my contract recently decided to shit a brick thanks to a transition we are making in executive agents, and I was extended an offer to remain on my current project for a whopping $15k more than what I'm making right now, and when it's already in the six figures range, and they are willing to extend a %15 increase in salary to stay on my project, it shows two things: 1) Work your ass off and people actually recognize it, and 2) Get a clearance and you will ALWAYS have a well-paying job.

Well, according to today's bugfix update:

QuoteMinecraft Beta 1.2_01 (less bugs, more framerates)

This update affects both the client and the server, but the server update isn?t mandatory. I highly suggest updating, though.

* Fixed various blocks acting really weird when placed (rails, torches, and more)
* Optimized performance
* Added a new painting that we forgot to include yesterday
* Reduced spawn rates a bit
* Fixed a whole pile of lighting bugs
* No more ghosts at night
* Added a temporary fix to get rid of chunk visibility errors

The last one is interesting.. The problem with chunk visibility errors was that for some reason the ?dirty? flag on chunks and the list of ?dirty chunks? got out of synch. There wasn?t time to try to do a proper fix today, so I just made the client check a couple of dirty chunks per frame to make sure they?re in the list.

So until we fix it proper, you might get invisible chunks, but they will fix themselves after a second or two, usually way before you even get close to them.

Heh, I know how you feel. I would play offline, but since there aren't random people's houses I can hide in during the night, I die fairly quickly. I'm assuming there have been other things higher up on his agenda than MineCraft lately (e.g. boobs, beer), so it better be a beautiful woman, or a strong spirit!

You guys should check out Mo' Creatures. It adds
Horse
Ogre
FireOgre
CaveOgre
Boar
Bear
Duck
LionK
Wolf
PolarBear
Wraith
FlameWraith
Bunny
Bird
Fox
Werewolf

this is only a singleplayer mod though, and its not currently compatible with the latest versions.

I've been looking into this mod. The idea of controllable mounts sounds just so nice.

But I've been toying with other mods for now.

A combination of Scott being out of town until Tuesday along with the mod support being effectively crippled with the discontinuation of hmod and the lack of release of bukkit.  Scott doesn't want to put the server up unless we can have some anti-grief in place, and hmod hasn't and quite possibly won't be updated anymore.

Actually it indefinately won't ever be again. A couple days ago Hey0 requested a lock on his topic, basically telling everybody to move over to Bukkit. Apparently on their site though, they said they tried to progress Hey0 but it was too hard to do, so they will have to make a completely new mod...

Sadly, you need anti-grief for pretty much every SMP server as a necessary precaution, seeing as this game is(unfortunately) so ridiculously griefer-friendly.  :-\

Also, following up on what Chaos said, the discontinuation of hMod and Bukkit probably not being released until next week at the earliest(from what I read on their forums, it seems), sometime next week has screwed quite a few people over. I'd rather wait until everything is in place, for our convenience.

Then I can finally stop beating around the bush and check out this server.

Yeah, I recently got a new rig (if I didn't say so already), and I can put render distance up to Far and graphics on Fancy and not have it freeze for more than a second. It doesn't even lock up frequently either; the only time it starts to have a small millisecond delay is when the day/night cycle changes.

If this happens how would one get on the whitelist?  I've played on the server since the new map was up as "ZombieDraxxx", never griefed anyone and contributed to the general community with my cobblestone paths.

If it were implemented, I would simply go down the access list and approve people one by one to be on the whitelist.  If new people wanted on, they would be lot on under close supervision for a certain period of time to ensure they aren't griefers, and then eventually we would welcome them as we welcome any of the regulars.

Rule of thumb(s) when screwing with mods:

1. Make sure the mod is confirmed to work with the latest Minecraft version. Otherwise, no dice.
2. For the most part, many mods require ModLoader, and ModLoader requires the META-INF folder in your minecraft.jar to be removed. Make sure that's done too.
3. Mods won't work on SMP unless the mod is made to work with the Minecraft server program.

I've mainly just been messing around with texture packs for the past few days, and really like the Quandary and Doku's RPG ones. The only thing that bothers me with the latter is that the glass isn't completely transparent with those wooden dowls running across it, but I love the overall feel of it. Anyone have any other suggestions for me to try out? I've heard good things from Painterly, but never have tried it out for myself.

Server is back up.

There's a catch though:

Go to http://www.whatismyip.com/ and send me a PM with your IP address.  Once I have your IP, I will add a rule to get you through the firewall.  If at any point in the future you attempt to connect, and it times out, chances are your dynamic IP address has changed, so you'll need to repeat the process.

Why the hassle of Firewalls?  We're in a rather vulnerable state, and since almost all of our griefers come in the form of people giving out the address to their friends, then their friends log on, and when they can be isolated, they go to town.  So if you have a friend who wants on, they'll have to follow the above steps, and I will be watching them.

EDIT:  IF YOU POST YOUR IP ADDRESS ON THE FORUMS I WILL SHIT MY CHIPOTLE DINNER IN YOUR EYES.

Why the hassle of Firewalls?  We're in a rather vulnerable state, and since almost all of our griefers come in the form of people giving out the address to their friends, then their friends log on, and when they can be isolated, they go to town.  So if you have a friend who wants on, they'll have to follow the above steps, and I will be watching them.

I'd really prefer if you guys made the exchange of IP address info a more private matter. It is not the best idea to be posting those on a public forum.

Most of the time people have computers behind a router that is connect to a modem (sometimes all in one). So your safe to turn off your PC. Most of the time when you get a new ip is when you restart your modem. Sometimes it may for no reason.

My point is you should be ok as long as your modem stays on. But I agree this white listing is not the best solution.

Post by: tehrozzy on January 29, 2011, 05:13:24 PM
I suggest a possible answer to whitelisting (AND an ability to have all that hMod stuff back) is to downgrade to the latest hMod compatible server, then uhh, well. Hang on, ill copy/paste from another server that did this.
"~Mac Users~

Go to Mac HD > Users > Your Name > Library > Application Support > minecraft > bin

then delete EVERYTHING. Run minecraft. It should download the upgraded version of minecraft. Go back to your bin folder and follow this: *SEE BELOW

~PC Users~

Go to My Computer and go to the address bar. Select all and delete. Type in or paste this in: %APPDATA%\.minecraft\bin. This is your bin folder. Delete EVERYTHING. Now run minecraft. It should download the newest version of minecraft. Go back to ?%APPDATA%\.minecraft\bin? and follow this: *SEE BELOW

Mac-Steps

1.) Open up Macintosh HD (or whatever drive)

2.)  Then, click Users and find your name/username.  The find the Library folder and you should see a bunch of folders. Find ?Application Support? which should be near the top. In that folder is a bunch of other folders which one of them should be minecraft. Click it and open it.

3.) In the minecraft folder find the ?bin? folder and open that. Finally, delete everything within that folder except the ?natives? folder and the ?version? file. So basically, delete all the .jars.

4.) Next, go to this link and download the file: To download, click here (Opens in new window). I would recommend public download. Now, for MAC users your going to need a unzip file application. For this, I recommend installing Suffit Expander

5.) Once extracted, you should get a folder in your downloads folder (/user/downloads)  called bin. Open that folder and you should get a bunch of .jars and a natives folder. All you need to do is drag the .jars into YOUR bin folder and NOT the natives folder. Once you have done that your good to go! Just run minecraft as usual and poof!

Pc-Steps

1.) First, open My Computer and go up where it says ?My computer?.  Select it all and backspace it. This is called the address bat. And what you want to do is paste this into it:  %APPDATA%\.minecraft\bin

2.) You should get a folder with .jars, a version file, and a natives folder. Delete everything EXCEPT the version file. Now, this is different from the MAC steps because in the MAC one you don?t delete the natives folder but in this one you do.

3.) Now what you want to do is go to this link and download the public download: To download, click here (Opens in new window). This is a .rar file and in order for you to extract the files from it you need an extracting program. There is a very popular program called WinRAR (click to download).

4.) When you extract it you should about 4 or 5 .jars and a natives folder. Select all and drag it all into YOUR bin folder. Once you have done so you can close out of everything and run minecraft like normal.


This basically DOWNGRADES minecraft to a hMod compatible version, while minecraft still thinks its up to date. this way we can use a nice stable server wrapper!
Oh and if this becomes the idea, i'll post the rar file with the older mc.

Hey it looks like scottis server got a new mod. The server is better now. I'v seen no beta holes and low lag. But it could get worse when more people get on.

edit: I take it back. Gets worse with people.

Install that with Mo' Creatures and your scenario would be as follows.

Its up time is going to be 24/7 Unless power/internet goes out. Its on a newly generated map. There are no modification done to the server as of now. Its running the default server software. May add some add-ons some if they do not effect server performance that much.

Minecraft website is down. And since the game checks the website to see if you paid for the game you cant get on. Try when its up. Once it comes up restart your minecraft and then try.

Edit:
I have successfully connected and the site is up as of now.

Its up-down a lot (the minecraft website). Just make sure you can get to the minecraft website before trying to join.

Several people(possibly even me) have been wanting Scotty to put his server map up for download, since it seems he no longer expresses any interest in hosting a Minecraft server. I'm querying if Scotty would be willing to do so. That way, maybe ARTgames can download that and set it up as the server(I'm assuming he has control of the server, him or __Dylan), because it seems several people have no interest in playing with the little development we've made on ART's new server.

I believe ART has requested the map file several times, but if he is able to get it, it will be no problem to host it from my server.

If any of you enjoy freebuilding with infinite supplies and don't like having to exit your game periodically to create some more supplies, I suggest the TooManyItems mod.

It adds an interface to the inventory screen that you can use to add single units or even stacks of blocks/items, and on top of that, it's also very compatible with mod-created-objects as far as I've seen: It also has all the new blocks and materials added in by the mod I have running with it in the spawn list.

I'm playing with mods while waiting for the server to be reupped, in unrelated news. But yeah, I highly recommend those of you who enjoy unlimited sandbox freebuilding to give this mod a lookup.

Or I could just bring the server back online.

It's back up.

I have to warn you though, a lot of the recent issues people have seen with lag are likely attributed to this shitty router I purchased a month or so back, and am now looking to replace because it blows not so freshly shaven donkey balls.

I've been messing around on singleplayer for the past few weeks working on substation prototypes. After much blood, sweat, and tears, here's what I've come up with!

/](http://www.[forbiddensite]/up/e7c26d46640921170604466158eeec0a.png) (http://[forbiddensite)

/](http://www.[forbiddensite]/up/0b7191879cc14e93b1b95f1828245120.png) (http://[forbiddensite)

/](http://www.[forbiddensite]/up/d10a94c42fddcd3f3a50861d44cf46e8.png) (http://[forbiddensite)

Yeah, the pictures suck as far as recognizing how it works, but that's not the point of the design. I've streamlined the substation to the point where all you need to do is get into the already awaiting cart to get boosted to the station. Of course, server lag makes everything a bit more challenging, so I had to tailor the cart mechanics to create a relatively low margin of error. Inclined and declined tracks for easier cart catching, multi-faceted pressure plates to account for single-block brake pads, copious use of the SW rule, and plenty of redstone logic gates to make sure once a signal is sent, it keeps sending until it's no longer needed. I'll obviously need to test it in the actual environment it'll be operating in, but since Scotty's server is having some pretty bad lag issues, I'll avoid that headache for now.

In a nutshell, the station has a total of two boosters (one to boost the passenger, and the other to pick up a reserve cart) and three cart holders (one being the cart ready to be boarded, and two in reserve). By getting into the cart, you activate both of these boosters simultaneously, which means as you're waiting to depart, another cart is on its way to fill the soon-to-be vacant spot (I've made adjustments to track lengths to prevent the cart from falling on top of you). The reserves will be filled as usual, as the station's overflow will travel to the sub in search of vacancies.

The interesting part was how to fill all three vacancies consecutively (if need be). What good would having reserves be if there's no cart to be boarded? I eventually settled on two NAND gates; one being hooked up to the reserves, and the other to the output of the NAND and a static loop booster (my very own design :3). I simply bifurcated the reserve booster to take a slightly different route back only if there's no reserves left, which would then let the station know there's no available carts by hitting that specific loop booster. Only by having both reserves vacant and the reserve booster fail to pick up any carts will it redirect the cart return track directly to the departing cart pad. Another loop is set up along that route which will switch it back over to the reserves. I don't have the overflow track and cart return track hooked up to anything, since there's nothing to hook it up to. I'm fresh out of iron at the moment, but I may eventually make it a complete circuit just for fun.

At any rate, this'll all be encased in obsidian and placed at the spawn once those lag issues are resolved and the spawn location has moved back. Hell, I might just stick one near the current spawn so I can avoid walking through that forest...

Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Trogdor on February 16, 2011, 11:13:31 AM
Well, there's only one departing cart, but the delay time between that cart leaving and another filling its space is virtually non-existent. So to answer your question it technically can only be used by one person at a time, but there can be a maximum of three carts in transit to the station until those carts make the return trip to refill the sub's vacant cart holders.

11clock that's like a blue screen of death error on windows. Only the most geeky person in microsoft can read it. :P Or in this case notch.


That or its a error that comes up a lot and I don't know about it.

@Trogdor
Can you design me something. I want a rail system In which there are two carts; one at ether end of the track(s). Meaning the track has two destinations.

[]      is a cart
===   is a track(can mean more than 1 track)

This is what it will look like when its ready to be used on ether side:
endpoint 1
V
[]=====================================[] <endpoint 2

So when a user walks up to an endpoint there should be a mine cart there unless it is in use or is being restocked. It must be automated and does not need manual mine cart restocking. Aka the user has to provide a mine cart, place it, then start it off. That is what I don't want. Don't worry about keeping the track monster free. Also its ok if it can support only one user at a time. But the more the better.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Trogdor on February 16, 2011, 11:14:15 PM
Sure, I'd be happy to. Which server is this going to be on? I'm kind of at a stopping point with my station, and from the looks of the current version of minecraft and/or its multiplayer capabilities, stations simply aren't feasible yet. I just got done replacing random bits of missing wiring and booster carts that the server failed to save on Scott's map, as well as the ever-prevalent lag that continues to surprise me on its many new and creative ways to throw my system out of whack.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: ARTgames on February 17, 2011, 08:21:57 AM
You can make it offline and send the map file. Or I can host a temp server and let you have stuff. Your choice.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Trogdor on February 17, 2011, 09:52:30 AM
I'll just send you the map file. Right now I'm using that mod Snake posted earlier, which definitely makes life easier. One more thing, is this going to be used for singleplayer or multiplayer, and how many reserve carts would you like at each end?

Oh, and is the track running from North to South or East to West? I should've asked you that before I started making my test site...
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: ARTgames on February 17, 2011, 06:43:00 PM
The track directions between the two end points my be variable. Meaning the track may turn. Also I would like it to be able to go in all directions even if that means a different layout for that. The main idea is there are two ends and there must be a cart at ether end unless its in use or reloading a new cart. If I get into a cart on one end it should take me to the other.

I would like it to be stable as possible. It may be used on multilayer.

Follow instructions here to enable SDK on your client so you can connect to the new server:

Just to give another option for minecraft servers, I've started one as well.

I have it to also only allow specified IP addresses, so, if you'd like access, send me a PM with your public IP address.  http://www.whatismyip.com (http://www.whatismyip.com)


For those people who don't want to get on/can't get on this new SDK server(I can't for some reason, followed instructions to the letter and backed up saves), I'd recommend they give igufed their IP for the whitelist for this server. It's really well-thought out.

There's also an inn for new players as well as a Borrow House, so it's not exactly like starting over.

That's what makes all the difference. I don't think the screen size of an iPod/iPhone would be big enough to really do everything you can do in Minecraft, since it's just relying on a touch screen.

I admit that memory is only a POSSIBLE problem, and the higher level iPods/iPhones could probably handle it relatively smoothly.

Considering the iPhone 5 is rumoured to have one of the following
1. dual processors

I'm sure it would handle it rather nicely.

Slimes have a higher spawn rate (?)
New Mojang logo splash screen
Graphics settings screen
New textures (?)
Ability to toggle between classic lighting and "smooth" lighting
Worlds now use a generic McRegion chunk save format, with built-in auto conversion
While starting a new world, players can choose their own name and seed to generate the world
More than 5 Worlds possible
Scrollbars in both the texture pack list, and in the map selection screen
Added whitelisting to the server. To use, enter ?whitelist <cmd>? where cmd is ?on?, ?off?, ?add <player>?, ?remove <player>?, ?list? or ?reload?
F1 now toggles HUD.
F3 can now be toggled.
When F3 is pressed, mobs display a number over their head. This number is referred to as the "entity id" and can be seen in the console when players connect to a server.
F8 toggles mouse smoothing
In 3rd person mode, character can be visibly seen to bob side to side when you walk (only when View Bobbing is enabled).
Sandstone is now found at the bottom of naturally generated sand.
All pressure plates now require two of its materials, instead of 3. The new stone slabs are now created by using 3 of the materials (see specific block pages for further information)
Mine time for Sandstone decreased.
Redstone dust will get darker the farther away it is from a source of power.
New painting added of a flaming skull.
Some blocks of ice have curved edges.(Needs clarification.)
Blocks break slower while in air. (Needs clarification.)
Less passive Mobs when on harder modes (?)
Deleting world confirmation changed slightly.
Smaller sheep and pigs? (Unconfirmed, sheep and pig dimensions are the same as 1.2.)
Bugfixes:
When breaking double slabs (one slab placed on another) it will drop two slabs instead of one.
Wood and logs don't burn forever anymore.
F1 in 3rd person mode no longer flips view.
Checkerboard sand border chunk generation fixed?
(need someone with more knowledge) No longer getting Java Log error spam.?
TNT (and possibly creeper) explosions in water will hurt the player.
New Bugs:
Some users reporting worlds getting deleted (confirm?). Deletion may be caused by use of mods from 1.2 that have not updated.
Levers can be placed on the bottom of a block, as long as there is an open space, and a block horizontal to the open space. The lever will act as if placed on the horizontal block, but looks glitched, as shown here: Media:Brokenlever.png
If someone uses their bed in SMP, other players may get disconnected. (Un-Recognisable Packet ID: 17)
Wooden Slabs are best mined with pickaxe, not an axe.
Zombies cannot hurt players unless the zombie is above them.
Large chests may cause crashes when opening them (Unconfirmed: crashes may be caused by use of mods from 1.2 that have not updated).
If debug screen is toggled on in a world and you save and quit to title screen, the graph stays on the screen (can get confirm?) (also is the new launcher, if that is any difference)
Lighting bugs on portal, water, and ice blocks with smooth lighting.
Pumpkins may face backwards when placed on head (Not new)

Yeah, I'm getting the same thing, 11clock. That might have something to do with the permissions being reset.

On another note, I just finished the substation going from the spawn to the main station. The entrance is just outside of the spawn, down a hole surrounded by halfsteps. All I have left to do is hook up the main station's overflow track to the cart allocating track for the sub, and I'm done! I'll eventually encase the sub in obsidian to forcefully stem any and all wanderlust you guys might have, but for now feel free to roam around inside it. Just try not to knock any carts off of their respective tracks, or break anything for that matter.

the /map directory is FUBAR right now.  Tried to run an update today after updating, and c10t hasn't been updated for the new map file format.  Once c10t is updated, I'll redo the map.

EDIT: Enabled the native whitelist feature.  If you require access and haven't been added already, post up your username and Chaos or I will add it.

My render distance keeps getting altered. One moment it's at Far then it suddenly changes to Tiny. I change it back to Far and within the next 5 seconds it went to Normal.

Anyways, loving the beds in Single Player!

Can you guys give me some advice? In my new world I started out in a snowy area with a HUGE icy lake. I've made a shelter in a small hill by some palm trees. I can't find much coal, and have only found 2 blocks. There are a couple of small lakes that are not frozen, and there is a small lava lake outside my shelter with random floating blocks of sorts floating over it (where I found my first coal block). I am not sure what to do from here.

YOU MAY WANT TO LOOK AT THIS NOTE: During Day 1 before I made my shelter, I heard zombie grunts nearby. I didn't see any zombies, though. During Day 2, I heard more zombie grunts, yet could not find the source. There are not much trees for zombies to hide under at day because of the flat snowy environment, leaving no place for zombies to hide from the sun. This leaves me puzzled.

Keep in mind that you can turn logs into charcoal in the furnace.  As for the zombies, they're likely in a cave or dungeon underneath you.

You can generally find coal on those high mountains with stone sticking out. Just be sure not to venture so far out that you can't find your way back home.

Limited color selection.  It was either using pink (again) for the hat, or using something else to switch it up a bit.  I blame Minecraft's weak selection of wool dyes.  None the less, I will say I am damn proud of myself for pulling this off!

I am fully equipped with an untouched set of iron armor and an iron sword, however I'm not sure how to deal with this spawner. Spiders are dangerous because of how fast they can kill you, and I need some advice on how to defeat the spawner. (No, I will not cheat by turning on Peaceful.)

Spawners of any type can be disarmed by placing 4 torches directly around them, in North, East, South, and West positions.

EDIT: ...for clarification, the exception to this rule are manually-placed Monster Spawners that spawn pigs, which were only legitimately obtainable in Infdev. You can get them now by using any INVedit-esque mods.

If you have a lava bucket with you(which is always smart to do when going underground), make a hole in the top of the dungeon, then pour the lava, let it kill the spiders, then scoop up the source block and wait for it to clear out, then immediately place the torches. I've done it before, and it worked fine for me.

Thanks! Luckily there is a lava lake outside of my base, and I have several buckets.

Crud, the dungeon is connected to a cave! I hear zombies, too (though not much)!

EDIT: There were some creepers hanging around the lava lake, but I managed to get the lava and get back in my base without them getting to me.

EDIT2: Conquered the dungeon! Sadly only one chest. :( It had 2 buckets, 1 wheat, 1 bread, and 1 saddle. Not really worth the time.

Since minecraft.net was broken, I decided to toy with a new redstone concept in the form of button combination locks!

This is a 5-button lock with the combination being 1, 4, 2, 5, 3. Any other order will activate the wrong part of an RS NAND, essentially freezing the circuit until it has been reset. Generally NANDS are safer than NORs to use in memory cells for locks, since you can eventually get the desired result by mashing the buttons.

There's also a simpler 3-button lock in the background of this picture that I made a while ago.

Yeah, nothing's sacred in Minecraft... I mainly did it to learn and apply a new logic gate concept since my repertoire was lacking. The only solution I can think of is having a sort of spawn protection around it. Maybe something like territorial flags will solve this, who knows? For now it's more of an invitation for someone to break down my door than it is a deterrent. :P

Hmm.. Don't you use the new redstone repeaters for any of this?

@Ceroblitz: I hardly ever use those. Two NOTs transmits a signal up to 34 meters, whereas the repeater is limited to just 16. I'm fairly certain that double NOT at the top of the circuit is the only one, and I was just being lazy. To be honest, I'd rather spend one extra redstone dust to save myself from having to smelt three cobblestone blocks and for having the potential to transmit that very same signal an extra 18 meters. The ability to adjust tick time is nice for clocks, but I hardly use those anyways.

@Meiun: Holy crap...

http://boobs.servebeer.com/map

It is currently set to update daily should both computers remain up and running, with minimal impact on the actual Minecraft server.  It's a headache most whom were online tonight could attest for, but I think I have it running off of Unix crontabs, so I hope the servers hold true.  i will double check tomorrow to ensure that all has gone well, and that the scripts are doing as told to, but this is a hi-res map to show you the accomplishments made on the server.

Just a heads up when you run it, it took me many hours (around 5 or 6) to run it, and for a map my size, it consumed about 21Gb worth of png files.  May want to look at compressing the png's a bit more than what it defaults to (which is rather low compression if I'm not mistaken).

Nirrudn - Scott's friend
FL0P - grim_reaper
dex48
Okrag - Yurchel's Brother

Double post:

Server is back up!  In an effort to optimize the load times of the map files, and reduce lag, I attempted to disable the swap on my server so that files weren't going to get written to disk when they should be written to memory.  Speaking of memory, I also placed all world files into memory, so now as far as read/write goes for the server files, they should be blindingly fast, but how the java process handles that is something entirely different...  But hey, I'm trying.

Server may come down periodically as I install a few craftbukkit mods to fend off griefers and try to help get some of the commands to the users.

Well I guess you're right about time increasing, but it doesn't take much effort. You could do something else while you wait for it to go down. That way you could only spend a total of 2 minutes just replanting while it takes 3 minutes cutting it all down, collecting the reeds, and fixing mistakes.

Boo hoo.  Next time don't try to "claim" land that never belonged to you.  Don't even begin to think that you can just build a castle right next to our village, chop down half my forest, and then call the area your own without a fight.

Your right I forgot you own the deed to that land.

If you want to argue that you can't "own" the land, then what the hell are you bitching about?  You have effectively just argued that you can't claim the land, so you have no right to complain about me planting (REPLANTING) my trees there.

But to answer your question, because I started the village practically at the beginning of the server.  I choose that area around the bay to build that village.  I planted the trees to surround the area I choose to build the village.  We started building our houses in the area around said bay.  Then, one guy joins the server, decides they don't like our village, decides to build a castle immediately adjacent to our village, chop down half the trees I planted around said village, walls the empty area off, then claims it all as their own.  Oh yeah, and then states hostility towards anyone who trespasses.

Yeah, I'm sorry, CLEARLY you have far more claim to it. (/sarcasm)  But hey, maybe we can ask Scott about it!  We can see if he defines chopping down a forest someone almost entirely hand-planted as griefing.  

But you know what?  I'LL let this incident go, and because I'm feeling generous, I WILL remove the trees in the castle and entrance areas.  Because I know that at least *I* have respect for someone's hard work.  (which is also why I merely planted trees, instead of just taking TNT to it and calling it a day.)

Of all the things people whine about in terms of griefing, this takes the cake. Of ALL the things people can POSSIBLY do, trees are the EASIEST things to clear out.

I should just !@#$ing bury your castle in a 10-obsidian-thick shell so you know what REAL griefing is. Seriously, cry harder.

And I apologize for making myself sound more angry than I actually am.  While I DO want the land to continue expanding the village (we've gotten two people trying to build houses INTO the bay already, plus want for space to build a clock tower) and keep the surrounding forest, I was never really that angry about it.  I would have removed the trees from the castle and entrance anyway, I only did it to compensate for the second chopping down of the trees, plus turning the castle into castle ruins that had "been abandoned, and taken back by nature", as it were.   :P

If you want, you can build one in the southeast corner where the trees are atm.  That's part of the reason we wanted the land.  Alternatively, you can cut down some of the trees on the SW island and build one on there.  Or, you could build one across the river in 'west arc' and make that less of a shithole.

So it looks like we've got an economy system on Scotty's server. This is great. This makes it a lot easier to trade, since we don't need to try and barter, hoping that I have what you need, and you have what I need.

Now the fun part is we can ONLY get gold from mods. This means that you will be starting off with 100 or 200 dollars, depending on how much Chaos likes you. After that, you must trade with others to either make, or lose money. This sounds great, since we all know that an economy with absolutely no money flowing in is ideal, which is exactly the kind of economy we are going to have here. This means that after the initial week of this, the roughly 10 active players within the game will have maybe, maybe 2000 gold between them. Thus is our total wealth, 2000$. No matter what happens, we will always have 2000$.

Now, Chaos, being infinitely wise, and a mathematician, has used his magical math powers to create some baseline prices for resources, which are to be used by all, to stimulate the economy and create a fair and agreeable price upon which people shall trade. Now, you may question whether these prices are fair or not, but you must remember, Chaos came upon them by math, so they are undeniably accurate.

What are these prices you might say? Well, let me give you a taste! Two hundred and twenty five dollars (225$) for one Diamond. That's right, all you have to do is go mine for say, 10 minutes or less, and you may have just doubled or tripled your wealth! It's that easy folks. Go sell it to someone, which can't take long, since we have a baseline price and Diamond is so precious. I can't believe how rich you are. Just imagine, you could collect 10 Diamonds and have ALL the wealth of the game. That easy. Now you are god, and if someone wants something, anything, you can set the price, since it is all yours. You can give them 1$ for a Diamond, because aside from what you have, that's a lot of money to everyone else, since it's infinitely more than they have. It's almost as if you just broke the economy. Don't worry about them getting money by any other means either, for remember, no money what so ever will be flowing into the game, since that is the supreme economical choice, and Chaos's personal opinion, which are one and the same.

Of course, you may be sitting here thinking wait! I disagree with Chaos, this doesn't make sense. In which case, I would keep you mouth shut, or you may get Banned from Scotty's server!

Yo dawg I'm happy for your concern and Imma let you finish, but:

The old economy was balls buggy so honestly this is better even if at a limit.

And if "10 minutes can get you enough diamonds to buy out the game" then that's just a crazy contradiction right there. Who the !@#$ would even THINK of buying ANYTHING if they can find it as willy-nilly as you say.

Not trying to spark up arguments here, but, think about it for a sec. If resources were so balls-easy to come by, then nobody would even bother with an economy thus rendering your rant pretty uh not-as-solid there, Seif.

However, I will say that a good alternative to all of the capped-monies-limit shenanigans would be a cash payout every time a monster is slapped. Not only does it remove the economy cap, but it'll give people a reason to hunt mobs, because frankly there is none (sulphur = TNT which you will probably NEVER use anyways, bonemeal = buggy in SMP what a !@#$in' surprise, string = make a bow and keep a little bit spare for extras then never touch again, feathers = just kill chickens lol)

Not only does it remove the economy cap, but it'll give people a reason to hunt mobs, because frankly there is none (sulphur = TNT which you will probably NEVER use anyways, bonemeal = buggy in SMP what a !@#$in' surprise, string = make a bow and keep a little bit spare for extras then never touch again, feathers = just kill chickens lol)

Which is my point Snakeman. That the "baseline" pricing is wrong, because no one would ever spend at that price, which in the end does not stimulate the economy, because idiots(IE:Most People) will follow baseline prices like sheep.

And as you say, there does need to be a way to have money coming in.

Damn skippy.

EDIT:  I'm needing to brainstorm how we are going to do the economy before we blow it up and it gets out of control before we even start.  I want to come up with a system, which I think might be native to the Eco mod I have installed that allows users to purchase items I specify for a price.  I also believe that there is a mod that allows mobs to drop cash when you kill them, which would be nice, but essentially we need a way for money to disappear if we start thinking about ways for money to appear.  I'll be socializing this with Chaos and some of the members online tonight to figure out the best way to approach this.

Chaos and I are searching for a user-shop plugin.  If you know of one (NPC shops is not an option), feel free to let us know.  It has to be bukkit based, and preferably use iConomy as a dependency.  Keep in mind, user-based, not a global shop, but a user based shop.

Instructions on how to use market?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Chaos on March 11, 2011, 09:39:40 PM
Right.  Here's the commands for iConomy and LocalShops

iConomy-

/money  to view your money
/money pay [playername] [amount]  to pay someone money from your balance


LocalShops-

/shop create [ShopName] - Creates a shop that is 10x10x3 in size centered where you are standing
/shop destroy [ShopName] - Removes a shop that you own
/shop add - Adds block in your hand to the shop
/shop add all - Adds the block in your hand to the shop plus everything else in your inventory of the same type
/shop add [itemname] [quantity]  - Adds designated item from your inventory to the shop
/shop remove [itemname] - Removes an item type from the shop. All remaining inventory is returned to the player.
/shop list - Lists all items stocked in shop
/shop list buy - Lists all purchasable items in shop
/shop list sell - Lists all items sellable to the shop
/shop list info - New feature in updated version, so unsure what it does yet
/shop sell - Sells block in hand to the shop
/shop sell [# or all] - Sells that amount of the block in your hand to the shop
/shop sell [itemname] [ammount or all] - Sells block of that type to the shop
/shop buy [itemname] [amount] - Buys designated block from shop
/shop set buy [itemname] [price] <optional: stack size>  - Sets the item as purchasable in your shop for designated price in designated stack size
/shop set sell [itemname] [price] <optional: stack size> - Sets the item as sellable to your shop for designated price in designated stack sizes
/shop set max [itemname] [amount] - Sets maximum level of stock you can have of designated item in your shop
/shop set manager +player1 +player2 -player3 - Use + or - before player name to add or remove them from the manager list.  Managers can add and remove items from the stock and are not charged money if they buy or sell from the shop
/shop set owner [playername] - Only the shop owner can use this command.  Transfers ownership to new player.  The shop owner gets all profits from items bought at the shop and pays for all items that are sold to the shop.

Yeah, double post.

A couple of hours ago Titan's little brother thought it would be cute to !@#$ with everyone's things. Mystery's hotel had a hole punched in it and his chests emptied of anything valuable, including his wool, and Yurchel's farm had its glass ceiling broken. I'm not sure about the amount of chests he stole from, and we're currently assessing anymore damage he may have caused (luckily none too severe), but he said he took pride in himself for his, and I quote, "thievery and meanness". Now, I obviously don't want this kid playing on our server, nor do I wish Titan's account to be banned because of it. If Titan could restrain his younger brother in the future by restricting access to his Minecraft account, it'd be much appreciated by us.

So some backround info, my brother is 10, and therfore is stupid.

I'm pretty pissed that his actions are reflect negativly on me, because he didn't think before deciding to mess with stuff he knows nothing about.


Once again, I would like to say sorry for my brother's behavior.

Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Trogdor on March 13, 2011, 10:50:24 PM
To prevent a backup, as I've done a lot of work I really don't want to lose, I'm 100% willing to fully reimburse anyone and everyone's valuables that were stolen during this. And yes, I trust you to not falsify that information. Shoot me a PM about what and approximately how much was stolen from you, and I'll add it to one of your chests in your house. All I know is that Mystery had about 300 wool stolen from him, and I'm working on re-acquiring that amount as we speak. Thankfully, it seems he only stole things such as diamond, redstone, and gold, and didn't bother too much with anything else (except for the wool, but he stole it just to be a douche, knowing Mystery needed it), which really narrows down what could be missing.

Please, please don't feel bad about asking me for anything you may be missing. I'd much rather pay a few blocks of diamond than lose about 7 hours of work today, which is more than a fair trade in my situation.

Please help mystery get the wool back if he doesn't have it back already. i worked all day killing sheep to get that to sell to him so that it would help on his hotel.
if he didn't get it back i will start gathering, and give it to him free of charge Ofcourse.

I've reverted a backup as expected, everything is back to what it was at approx ~9:30 EST.

No one has yet to find the black market so far as I can tell.  So I will give you a bit further of a hint:
You'll want to come armed and ready to fight if you want to find it, day or night.  That doesn't mean that I have monster spawns planted, but regardless, if you expect to find it in the deepest, darkest corner of the map, you'll want weapons and armor.  Who knows what you might encounter along the way!

I've been contemplating developing a web app for basic minecraft stats, chat logs, etc... And one thing was apparent, something as simple as determining who is currently online was a bit of a stretch.  I didn't care to try and search for a bukkit plugin, when I was determined to figure it out myself.  I figure I'd share my findings with everyone in case those who host a linux server (or may in the future) wish to benefit from my findings.

It's incredibly simple.  In dumbed down terms, on Linux, using the netstat tool, you can determine the IP addresses and ports of all computers who are currently connecting to your computer.  The command may resemble the following:

netstat -unt

And of course, with any Linux command, it is overly verbose from what we care to have.  For example, here is my returned results:

tcp        0      0 192.168.1.122:56157     192.168.1.127:445       ESTABLISHED
tcp        0      0 127.0.0.1:3306          127.0.0.1:37153         TIME_WAIT

tcp6       0      0 127.0.0.1:37157         127.0.0.1:3306          TIME_WAIT 


Well a few things are apparent just by looking at this list, as well as understanding a few things about minecraft.  Minecraft natively requires use of port 25565.  We see two sets of IP addresses, one in column 4, another in column 5.  I'm looking for the 25565 in the port numbers (anything in the IP address past the ":").  This cuts us down to column 4.  So we further refine the list by grep'ing for the port:

netstat -unt | grep 25565

This cuts me down to:

tcp6      19    264 192.168.1.122:25565     76.241.71.126:53608     ESTABLISHED
tcp6      67   1375 192.168.1.122:25565     70.246.61.95:50684      ESTABLISHED
tcp6       0  24208 192.168.1.122:25565     99.31.196.177:53879     ESTABLISHED
tcp6       0      0 192.168.1.122:25565     99.31.196.177:53846     TIME_WAIT 
tcp6       0   1745 192.168.1.122:25565     76.122.32.214:50754     ESTABLISHED


Looks like we have 4 rows, which means 4 connected users, all connecting to 192.168.1.122:25565 which just so happens to be in the internal IP address of my server on my LAN, with the default minecraft port.  The fifth column includes the IP addresses of those who are connecting to my server.  So now it's time to weed out all the erroneous extra stuff we don't need and just get that 5th column's values:

netstat -unt | grep 25565 | awk '{print $5}'

As expected, the results:

76.241.71.126:53608
70.246.61.95:50684
99.31.196.177:53879
76.122.32.214:50754


So now we have a new-line delimited string of IP addresses of connected clients.  So how do we turn IP addresses into usernames?  Well the really cool part about this is that Minecraft generates a log file of all things that occur on the server.  The list provided above is real time, as in it is the current IP addresses of the connected clients.  As opposed to going the route of maintaining a database with usernames, and update them as their dynamic IPs update, I figure I'd knock it all out at once.  Convenient for Minecraft System Administrators, the system log will log every time a user logs in and their current IP address that they are logging in with.  That IP address in that log file will match one of the above returned IP addresses.  So in other words, I need to generate a loop that iterates through each of the above returned results, and grep the log file for that specific IP (and port) to determine who is connected, and then I can use awk to pull the username.  The loop and everything that I use in the script looks similar to:

#!/bin/bash

IPS=`netstat -unt | grep 25565 | awk '{print $5}'`
LOG="/path/to/server.log"
RESULT="/path/to/file/to/store/returned/users"

> $RESULT
for VAR in $IPS
do
  grep $VAR $LOG | tail -1 | awk '{print $4}' >> $RESULT
done;


Essentially what I'm accomplishing above is establing the IP addresses of connected clients ($IPS), and establishing the location of the server.log file ($LOG), and where to return the results of the online users ($RESULT).  I clear the $RESULT file, then iterate through each line of what is returned by $IPS.  For each returned result, I grep the $LOG file, limiting it to the last returned result, and pulling the username (which is the 4th column), then appending it to the $RESULT file.

Simple eh?

I don't see the lakehouse at all in that picture. I am referring to the building at the very top left, the one with a glass ceiling. It also serves as a safe entrance into Newarc.
The brick house and the cobblestone house next to the lakehouse also didn't get affected.

I had to revert back to c10t maps, as Tectonicus, as cool as it was in hi-def was just unfeasible.  The same map which is only 502Mb in c10t was 52Gb with Tectonicus.  I haven't even allocated that much disk space to my linux server to house that sort of a map, so back to c10t we go!  I hope to have regular updates going soon!

EDIT:  Also, I feel like doing an expedition, as it's been a hella long time since we've had a good one.  Tomorrow, 10PM EST, bring absolutely nothing, and I will stock you with bare essentials to get us going.  We'll meet outside the rainbow tower on the sandy beaches, and move out from there!  Give me a shout if you're interested in being there so I can get a feel as to whether or not its worth it!

I'd be more than willing to help host frequent expeditions, I've been wanting to get some going for a while, but no one seemed interested in going on any at the time. I'd love to go along on any as well if I'm not considered a good candidate to host any.

Forgot to mention, I whitelisted you earlier this evening.  My apologies.

EDIT: For those who traveled out to the new prospective desert civilization, please abstain from building on the level island.  There's still work that needs to be done, and building standards to be set.

Trog's expedition was fun and successful. We started out with about 7 people.

After about 3 day/night cycles, we reached a mountain with a hole in it, that had a wicked view of other highland, including a floating island. We decided to make an outpost there, and got pretty far.

And then me and Aray fell down a ladder to our deaths :l

Yeah, you'd think after the fourth time it'd work!

Here's the original expedition group:
/](http://www.[forbiddensite]/up/bcee4fcb0500ee8b1c93342a7c07563f.jpg) (http://[forbiddensite)

It turned out better than I expected, considering it was my first time hosting one. Our group consisted of Rozzt (YayForLife), EnragedDeity (Mystery), Brandonk, Epicphail, and 11clock; later being joined mid-way by ArayUltimate (RayRay), ___Dylan (Steakboy132), and Yurchel. We had a rough start at first by night falling as soon as the expedition went underway (bad planning on my part). After deciding to do a timewarp, I... err... unfortunately had to kick Scotty in order to make that happen... Forgive me! But other than it, it went smooth enough. I look forward to our next one, or maybe even a continuation of our present one!

I had to revert back to c10t maps, as Tectonicus, as cool as it was in hi-def was just unfeasible.  The same map which is only 502Mb in c10t was 52Gb with Tectonicus.  I haven't even allocated that much disk space to my linux server to house that sort of a map, so back to c10t we go!  I hope to have regular updates going soon!

EDIT:  Also, I feel like doing an expedition, as it's been a hella long time since we've had a good one.  Tomorrow, 10PM EST, bring absolutely nothing, and I will stock you with bare essentials to get us going.  We'll meet outside the rainbow tower on the sandy beaches, and move out from there!  Give me a shout if you're interested in being there so I can get a feel as to whether or not its worth it!

"Hello, Gamers. Look at your house, now back to mine, now back at your house, now back to mine. Sadly, it isn't yours, but if you stopped playing overrated FPS' and started playing Minecraft, it could look like mine.

Look down, back up, where are you? You're in a mine that you built with your own hands!

What's in your hand? I have it. It's a pickaxe made from stone. Look again, THE PICKAXE IS NOW DIAMOND! Anything is possible when you play Minecraft!

Mainly because I fell in the middle of the landing pool, where the water didn't reach over my head, so I exploded in the water. I told the rest to not jump down it afterwards.

Maybe! I'm kind of looking for ideas for it. If anybody is interested on making tree-themed structures/buildings on the island, I'm giving free land grants. But buildings must be made out of regular logs, dark logs, birch logs. I want a completely tree themed style.

And I'll have you all know, It took more logs than a full inventory of 64 stacks to create this island and LOADS of saplings and bone meal (because I was impatient).

The offline disables login verification, making it so you don't go through the minecraft website to log in. If you have a whitelist its safe though because hackers won't be whitelisted :P

It also allows people to log onto a server using whatever username they want, so if you are an admin, and are logged off, someone else can log under your username and have all admin access to the server.

Passwords are irrelevant to offline servers.  Regardless, it is always a good idea to have a different password than that of your Minecraft login.  See:

While that may be true, I can think of several ways to prevent that and still host a server in offline mode...

You can easily ban the use of names from every IP except yours with a little creativity.  ;)

Title: Re: Minecraft

Well that's that I mean. But I understand why you think I did not mean that. Bad wording on my part. An offline (by offline I mean independent from minecraft's servers ) credential system completely separated from Minecraft's "extremely well working server" that maintained by the server's host. (aka you)

You give Minecraft the server ip. It connects. Your server asks for a login. You get in if it works. And you have complete control over it. Maybe this can be done by a mod but I feel it should really be built in.

I mean the main point really of a minecraft account is to showed you paid.

It gives you little backing to who you are but that's nothing the server's provider cant do themselves. But the tools to do it is not really built in and that's what I'm requesting.

Something weird's going on with the server right now... It's failing to save the point last logged out at and the current inventory. Instead, it regresses back to a previous point in time (always the same one) with the inventory during said time frame. However, chests still correctly save any items you place inside in spite of the regression...

Edit: It also appears any modifications to the terrain save as well...

That would be because of the course of the weekend, the map supposedly grew over 250Mb in size, thus capping the server's disk/memory space.  I've just shut down the server and will look into it, I'll post more when it's back up.

EDIT: It should be back up.  Bad news is I have no idea how well this is going to do with the amount of memory I've dedicated to the server.  I've allotted 1024Mb of memory for disk space for the server, and last I checked, that pushing it right to the limit of my computer's available memory.  The world right now is 800Mb in size.  If the server crashes due to excessive use of memory, or if performance plummets due to excessive swap usage, let me know and I will have to go back to regular hard drive storage for the map, which will undoubtedly mean not so perky performance, but that's about the only option.  Keep me posted.

EDIT #2: I've shut down a few processes temporarily, including Dropbox (http://db.tt/3DlpZ4D) and Apache, and I've gone from 30Mb of free mem to a fraction over 100Mb.  I think we'll be alright for a little while longer.  As soon as we cap the 1Gb mark though, I'm going to have to revert back to ext4 storage instead of ramdisk storage.

Well I don't think map size should matter but rather how many players are on and ware they are should determine ram usage. And the size of the map should use up more rom size. But I did not make Minecaft so I guess that does not matter.

I guess he could use MCedit thingy for Minecraft and take off some large parts of the map. (Or update his abacus) I have no idea if that work with the new map file. Or maybe when the new updates comes out Notch will make the server software better (or worse :P).

I created a ramdisk totaling 1Gb in size.  In other words, I am storing the world in memory, rather than disk drives.  Obviously, storing the world in memory makes loading ultra-quick.  The only disadvantage is that since it is stored in memory, should the computer ever crash (which it won't, yay Linux!), the world is gone.  Even though I trust in my laptop to not randomly kick the bucket, I am well aware that the computer tends to get rather warm when there's a boat load of people playing, and if anything, it may shut off due to excessively high temperatures.  Thus, I have the backup script running every hour so that should be a catastrophic loss, rather the computer shut down, the most we lose is one hour's worth of data.

The only other negative is that the laptop only has 4Gb of memory, 3.62Gb of which is actually available.  I deduct one Gb for ramdisk, and still have to provide ~2.5Gb to run the operating system, the database, a web server, and whatever else happens to be running on it.  As of right now (I just checked), it is down to ~50Mb free memory.  The good news is that I've set the swapiness to a very low level, so it should only resort to using swap space should memory pretty much plummet to near nothing.

Ok thats fine. I see why now that I know your ram disking. But why not just use the hard drive? I guess you cant get that good performance out a laptop drive. :/

Maybe upgrade to a SSD? Come on $200-$400 for a free Minecraft server sounds reasonable. Only kidding. I guess just get more ram like you said before.

Thanks for the update scotti!

I gave him a warning and he did his best to fix it up as best he could, so hopefully this won't happen in the future. If it does, I'll make sure it won't happen a third time.

350 is a whole lot more than the 65 I'm actually buying it for...  Either way, as Scott said, he's screwing himself out of money.  All his iron ingots were bought out almost immediately.  Economy 101.  As Seifer stated, the economy will stabilize itself naturally that way.

Just as you know, I'm really good at Minecraft. REALLY good. My money on this server gives me a little boost and gives everyone a bigger boost. I can practically make everything I need down in my house's mine. I made an auto cactus machine and might put it on a public chest somewhere in Newarc. The cactus doesn't take much effort; all you have to do is sit at the collecting bin, and then when you finish doing something else, you'll find 500 cactus in your inventory. Everything else takes effort and goes into my shop, but I don't need money that much, (figuring that I might lower the price for diamond) so... yeah.

Also I was hoping I could sell Bread to McDonalds, figuring that resturants in real life import food stock...

Ever since Yurchel's sand pyramid was destroyed, the spot out in the water near Titan's castle has been depressingly empty. Chaos made a good attempt at filling it, but his pyramid was a bit on the small side, not doing much justice to the old pyramid's grandeur. I decided to try my hand at it and took down Chaos' pyramid, scrounging up sand from both it and the remnants of Yurchel's lying at the bottom of the ocean. After much toil I completed my version within a few weeks, though the hard part wasn't the meticulous calculation of each block's placement or finding enough coal to make the torches, but rather trying to keep Scotty away from it/up/d2dea60719e8246394a0c03de3d2563c.png]. (http://www.[forbiddensite)./up/d868ac9af2a53f8ffc8974e298ed33ff.png]. (http://www.[forbiddensite)

The first picture is the finished product of the sand sphere and the second of the interior, which is accessible from underneath. It may not appear entirely spherical due to rounding off decimals, but it is mathematically correct to the nearest whole radius. I also think the Painterly Pack's torches make it look much better.

Anyone here heard of the Edgelands? It's apparently Minecraft's biggest secret.

The Edgelands takes about 800-900 hours of solid walking to get to from the center of the world. A little after 12 million blocks, you will get static movement. Walk a little further, and you will come face to face with a huge solid wall that has holes in it. It goes from the bottom to the top and lasts to the end of the world. It's extremely laggy and highly recommended that you don't explore it with risk of crashing.

Yeah, Notch pretty much stated as much 3 weeks ago on his blog:

QuoteTerrain generation, Part 1

I?ve been promising to write a technical post on Minecraft for a while, but never really got around to doing so. I?m on a tiny airplane now, though, with nowhere to run, so here we go!

One of the most complex parts of Minecraft is the terrain generation. When I changed the game over from being just single zones of a map to an infinite map, the terrain generation got a whole lot more complicated, as terrain needs to get generated on the fly as the player explores, and it has to be the same no matter what direction the player approaches it from.

1) How infinite is it?

First of all, let me clarify some things about the ?infinite? maps: They?re not infinite, but there?s no hard limit either. It?ll just get buggier and buggier the further out you are. Terrain is generated, saved and loaded, and (kind of) rendered in chunks of 16*16*128 blocks. These chunks have an offset value that is a 32 bit integer roughly in the range negative two billion to positive two billion. If you go outside that range (about 25% of the distance from where you are now to the sun), loading and saving chunks will start overwriting old chunks. At a 16/th of that distance, things that use integers for block positions, such as using items and pathfinding, will start overflowing and acting weird.

Those are the two ?hard? limits.

Most other things, like the terrain generation seeds and entity locations use 64 bit doubles for locations, and they do much subtler things. For example, at extreme distances, the player may move slower than near the center of the world, due to rounding errors (the position has a huge mantissa, the movement delta has a tiny, so it gets cut off faster). The terrain generator can also start generating weird structures, such as huge blocks of solid material, but I haven?t seen this lately nor examined exactly what behavior causes it to happen. One major problem at long distances is that the physics starts bugging out, so the player can randomly fall into ground blocks or get stuck while walking along a wall.

Many of these problems can be solved by changing the math into a local model centered around the player so the numbers all have vaguely the same magnitude. For rendering, Minecraft already uses local coordinates within the block and offset the block position relative to the player to give the impression of the player moving. This is mostly due to OpengGL using 32 bit floats for positions, but also because the rounding errors are extremely visible when displayed on a screen.

We?re probably not going to fix these bugs until it becomes common for players to experience them while playing legitimately. My gut feeling is that nobody ever has so far, and nobody will. Walking that far will take a very long time. Besides, the bugs add mystery and charisma to the Far Lands.

2) Isn?t that terrain shape pretty awesome?

In the very earliest version of Minecraft, I used a 2D Perlin noise heightmap to set the shape of the world. Or, rather, I used quite a few of them. One for overall elevation, one for terrain roughness, and one for local detail. For each column of blocks, the height was (elevation + (roughness*detail))*64+64. Both elevation and roughness were smooth, large scale noises, and detail was a more intricate one. This method had the great advantage of being very fast as there?s just 16*16*(noiseNum) samples per chunk to generate, but the disadvantage of being rather dull. Specifically, there?s no way for this method to generate any overhangs.

So I switched the system over into a similar system based off 3D Perlin noise. Instead of sampling the ?ground height?, I treated the noise value as the ?density?, where anything lower than 0 would be air, and anything higher than or equal to 0 would be ground. To make sure the bottom layer is solid and the top isn?t, I just add the height (offset by the water level) to the sampled result.

Unfortunately, I immediately ran into both performance issues and playability issues. Performance issues because of the huge amount of sampling needed to be done, and playability issues because there were no flat areas or smooth hills. The solution to both problems turned out to be just sampling at a lower resolution (scaled 8x along the horizontals, 4x along the vertical) and doing a linear interpolation. Suddenly, the game had flat areas, smooth hills, and also most single floating blocks were gone.

The exact formula I use is a bit involved (and secret!), but it evolved slowly over time as I worked on the game. It still uses the 2D elevation and noisyness maps, though.

STILL TO COME, ON TERRAIN GENERATION:

    Biomes!
    Caves and Large Features
    Trees, Lakes, and Small Features
    The nether!

Now I?ll prepare for landing so I can switch flights!

So, a few others and I were tossing around the idea of starting over on a new map. Castles, cathedrals, cake pyramids, rainbow hotels, mob towers, Deku Trees, sand spheres, shops, a few towns, a plethora of houses ranging from modest to mansion, and much more. I think this map has seen a lot considering how long it was up. I know this was brought up before, and I did personally reject the idea when it was, but in retrospect many things could be done differently. Starting over on a fresh slate would not only update the pre-existing map (not having to walk a ways to start generating sandstone/lapis lazuli), but it would also free up much more memory on the server's hard disk.

Which brings me to my second point. If the majority of us do indeed wish to start fresh, there will be some new rules. The first and most important rule is to not walk in one direction for thousands of kilometers. I'm personally guilty of this, but due to memory constraints, this will no longer be tolerated. We all understand the need for some privacy, but Minecraft is a big world. Even a few kilometers can get you far enough away to the point of virtual solitude (no pun intended). Though we don't have any means to find and punish those who do, it would be a courtesy to the rest of the community not to jeopardize the limit with wasted chunks eating up space.

However, expeditions will still have a place on the new map. Instead of wandering off in a direction and keeping those chunks saved, we could instead backup the map prior to one, and then reload the map pre-expedition. To avoid being unfair to those players who wish to do other things than partake in one, expeditions will be planned ahead of time, with specific time slots. This way, those that don't wish to partake in one will have a heads up on when not to work on anything. We could also publicly announce it in game for those that don't access these forums shortly before an expedition, just so they don't waste time working on anything only to have it robbed of them.

Another thing I've been mulling over in my head is reintroducing warps. It seems that without an easily accessible way to new towns, considering the maddening bugginess of minecarts, they quickly grow stagnate and fade into obscurity, many times not even being finished. However, if we do go this route, warps won't be a free hand-out. There will be some sort of ridiculous price to obtain a warp point, both encouraging collaboration by forcing a band of players to pool together their resources, and preventing personal uses for warps from regular players. I would much rather do without them and have the minecarts work properly, but I would also like to see new and thriving villages than simply none at all. We had a few successful towns on the old map before this one, and though Chaos' leadership from two out of these three was a huge factor to their success, I can't help but feel that the warps provided that much needed ease of accessibility.

Anyhow, I'd like other people's thoughts on this before we jump the gun, though by the looks of the havok Scotty is reaping as I'm typing this, I think he may have already decided.

Diamond Quest News #1: MCedit Troubles

Well I started making Diamond Quest. It's an adventure map designed to give an RPG feel of Minecraft. I'll post some notes I have written:

Quote from: READ_BEFORE_STARTINGBefore you start playing Diamond Quest, here are the rules:

-You are not allowed to destroy blocks unless permitted. You are allowed to destroy mob spawners, though.
-Read notes when told by signs.
-Do not move on without completing current objectives.
-Wool represent NPCs. Do not kill (break) them!
-When approaching a boss (mass of spawners), you must destroy it completely before claiming the diamond that the boss is guarding.
-Don't be alarmed by the large amounts of lava. They act as the map borders and should not be crossed.

Have fun!

Quote from: Note1You have been chosen by the King to defeat the Dark Lord before he destroys Minecraftia.
His castle is protected by a large wall of Obsidian, black rock that can only be destroyed by diamond.
You have been sent of a quest to claim three pieces of diamond.
That is enough to make a powerful pickaxe that can break the wall.
One diamond is located deep in the Dark Forest.
Another diamond is in the Murky Cave.
The final diamond is in the Ancient Pyramid, far into the Dry Desert.
When you claim all 3 diamonds, you can make a diamond pickaxe, destroy the obsidian wall, and venture into the castle and defeat the Dark Lord!
Before you set off on your journey, you'll need to get prepared for the great adventure.

Current Objective:
-Get ready for the adventure.

WHEN YOU COMPLETE THE CURRENT OBJECTIVE, READ NOTE2.

Quote from: Note2You here explosions and sceaming outside!

Current Objective:
-Investgate the town and look for survivors.

Now, like others who make custom maps I'm using MCedit. I understand it so far, but I don't quite get door and bed placement. I need the beds and doors to face the proper direction, but I can't tell what direction they face when I place them. Can someone help me?

EDIT: Here is a screenshot of the first town!

(http://www.[forbiddensite]/up/9c7ce32ea6d853a365f9ad38a150540c.bmp)

The house that is not blown up is where you begin. I'll add the dead NPCs later.

Diamond Quest News #2: New Arrival-Scotty

So far, so good. I'll add a fence around the town. I placed the survivor, too. Currently working on the path to Scotty's house.
Scotty will be in DiamondQuest as one of the wool NPCs. You bump into him a lot. He plays the role of a hunter. Scotty can tell me what color shirt he wants the character to wear and what he says. The default shirt color is brown. The default text is:

Quote from: Note4Scotty: "What are you doing, bursting into my home like that?
Can't you see I'm having a drink here!?
...What, Newarc has been attacked? How did that happen?
Those blasted Creepers! Ever since the Dark Lord has shown up,
there has been a huge increase of their population!
You must be the one who is after the diamonds, yes?
Well, there is one in the Dark Forest near here.
Wait! before you go running off like you know what you're doing,
you can't survive the Dark Forest in those crappy undergarments!
There is a fresh set of Iron Armor in that chest over there. Put those on.
There are also more stone swords, and a supply of torches in there.
When you're done gearing up, follow the path into the Dark Forest.
Don't stray from the path, or you'll without a doubt get lost.
I'll catch up to you guys. I need to finish my beer, first."

Current Objective:
-Find the diamond in the Dark Forest.

Scotty can PM me about the character.

No. Hate to burst your bubble, but I think that RPG mod is a bad idea for Minecraft. Since the mod reminds me of Elder Scrolls: Oblivion, I'll use that as a comparison.

In Oblivion, as you level up the monsters level up. Even after reaching a high level the game will just get more and more difficult.

In Minecraft, it's constant. As you level up, the environment will not get any more difficult. At high levels, the game will be way too easy. Skills are nice, but that makes the game even more easy.

Yeah, I'm going to have to agree with 11clock here. Additionally, what makes you think this mod will save each and every person's stats perfectly? Even without mods, Minecraft already has a hard enough time saving redstone and track placement as it is. Even other mods like the economy mod can't properly save a player's money, and you think multiplying that by 10 in the form of stats will be a good idea?

Don't get me wrong, the mod looks neat and well thought through, but I don't need the game getting any easier. Your time spent in Minecraft should be reflected in the creations that you make, and by adding stats you detract from that.

I'll also vote No.

I can agree with the parts about the stability and persistence of data across server reboots.  At this point, it just seems like we'd be adding something more to break.

Chaos posed the thought to me that previously storing the world's data files in memory may have had something to do with it.  I won't say it couldn't have, considering all database data is stored on physical disk, as well as the main minecraft .jar file (it was just the world/ directory that was stored in memory), but if data is being called by the .jar file and then placed in the world/ directory for things like caching purposes, I could see that.

I want to run a series of controlled reboots tonight to see if we can replicate the bug.  If so, I will submit proper bug reports to the respective plugins.

Part of the reason I'm so interested in this is that it would allow the players to fulfill actual 'roles', whether it be around town or on expeditions.  Those with repair skill can be blacksmiths, those with mining skill can be miners,  we can have loggers, scouts, farmers, guardsmen, etc.  It would give one player a reason to do something over another and actually help establish the economy not only as someone having something and someone not, but as someone able to DO something while another might not as easily.

I don't think ASSUMING it will glitch before even trying it out is a good reason to not try it at all.

If you wish to add a bit of flavor to the server, I'd highly suggest taking a look at a the TownyMod Bukkit plugin. TownyMod allows the capability of making towns and nations. The maximum size of each town is dependent on the amount of residents that have joined the town, and every block claimed within the town is protected from removal or addition to from any non-resident of the town. The mod works in combination with iConomy, allowing players to purchase land from their mayors, and allowing mayors to set daily taxes for their players. It adds an extremely convenient /town chat, which allows residents of the same town to chat with eachother, as well as a /town spawn that changes your respawn to that town as well. It also has a built in "War" mode which I have actually yet to try out.

This plugin is in effect in the minecraft server I've been participating in recently, and it works extremely well. The server is called minecraft medieval civilization roleplay, and the goal of the server is pretty much the name, to roleplay the creation and maintaining of medieval civilizations. Players join together and create gigantic sprawling cities that compete with their neighboring towns, and occasionally have bloody epic wars. (I mean really epic, like, people sticking ladders on walls and attempting to climb up while getting pounded with arrows, dumping hot oil (aka lava) down the oil pits of keep entrances while people try to break their way in, etc.)

Another plugin we use in our server is CraftBook. CraftBook offers a couple really neat features, like Gates (http://craftbook.sk89q.com/wiki/Gates), Bridges (http://craftbook.sk89q.com/wiki/Bridges), and even Elevators (http://craftbook.sk89q.com/wiki/Elevators). These types of things, especially the gates, are extremely awesome when used in conjunction with the townymod plugin, allowing for some very creative town entrances.

"ArayUltimate got creeper bombed"
"ArayUltimate burn baby burn!!"
"ArayUltimate was slaughtered (or something) by EnragedDeity with an Iron Sword"
"ArayUltimate became obsidian"
"ArayUltimate is swimming with the fishes"
"ArayUltimate forgot how to stop, drop and roll"
"ArayUltimate should of feared heights"
"ArayUltimate took a leap of faith"
"ArayUltimate had a pretty facccccccccccccccccccccce"

I have completely finished Chapter 1! I fixed some grammar in the notes and added a new area: Bob Joebob's Treehouse! I also removed the first surface dungeon and I'm adding a bonus quest to go along with the surface dungeons you will encounter.

Bonus Quest: The Book of Notch
The Dark Lord's minions have taken hold of the Book of Notch! It has been ripped into 3 pieces, each one being held in a different location. Find the 3 missing pieces and fix the book! This is no easy task. Each piece is guarded by a mob spawner and various mobs. Be prepared!

The Lapis Temple is introduced shortly into Chapter 2. It's a beautiful temple with 4 challenges. It took me more than 2 days to make this, and it came out nicely.

I personally love mcMMO, it is such a neat plugin. Simple, yet adds a entire new side of gameplay in my opinion, or rather gives another reason to do a certain thing.

While it is expected to be officially released in 1.6, I have found something for the time being. I assume your using bukkit? After searching, I have found 2 piston mods, you can choose what you think you would like more:

http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/mech-bukkitpiston-v0-2-pistons-plugin-for-smp-670.12665/
http://forums.bukkit.org/threads/mech-pistonplugin-v1-3-pistons-powered-by-redstone-670.12397/

The nice thing is I don't think anybody needs to modify their jar for either of these like they would have had to when you ran your sdk gun mod. I should note I haven't tried either of these yet, but I think it would be pretty cool to give it a shot on the server?

The map is now 50% complete! I haven't tested it, so I'm not sure if the game is balanced. However, I'm letting you test the game! I really want to hear feedback, so please try the map out and tell me what you think!
Note: It's highly recommended that you install Careful Creepers (Creepers no longer blow up the landscape, but can still explode.) and DeathChest (If holding a chest, your items will be stored in the chest when you die, giving you an infinite amount of time to reclaim your items.) to ease the difficulty of the map.

Forgot to mention. My server is using port 25566 now. (Windows machine is acting up, put it on a ubuntu machine). 

The plan was to start a flat 1000x1000 world (supplies/material provided) and see what we could come up with to fill the entire flat area on the ubuntu machine, but, since the Windows one is being rude, this idea is on hold.

So, for the normal igufed server map, use:  minecraft.igufed.com:25566

Heh, i noticed. i flew around the map to see a giant adminium wall, with a hole in it it at ground level. Sorta looks liek a creeper explosion hole to.

Creepers can't blow up bedrock and obsidian. I'll go ahead and take a look, though.

The creeper in the tree house must of blown up the chest with the diamond. The tree house is the main reason why I suggested Careful Creepers.

No, i got the diamond, didnt know what to do after that though.

Oh. After you grab the diamond, explore the tree house and leave it. Head back to the fork in the road in the forest, and head the other direction. Get rid of the planks you come across after about 5 seconds of walking down the path.

You probably should have clarified that bit more, I found that confusing too. Also, would it hurt to just not add creeper spawners in sensitive/fragile areas? I am sure you could do fine with your other options.

Couple pointers:
1) You need more food given to the player throughout the game. The little I had was barely enough. I had to switch the game to peaceful many times to get by.
2) In the lapiz temple, I ended up have 2 extra levers after doing all the puzzles and opening all the doors. In one of the stages, you completed 2 puzzles and got 2 levers but only had 1 door to open. Also about earning levers, it seems like a sort of strange thing to do....Why not just engineer a redstone circuit to open the doors and place the levers to be pulled at the end of the puzzles instead?

Also I have a question for you. How did you get spawners that spawned actual hostile players? I thought that was pretty cool...want to learn what you did there. I have MC edit too, I know how to make spawners for every monster except for those.



EDIT: Completely unrelated to what I had said above: Watch this (Unless your name is Scotty), it is freaking incredible. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VFZKtvHQSNY

I don't use creeper spawners. I hate creepers and would never do such a thing. The creepers you've been seeing are spawned by the darkness.

As for the Lapis Temple, there were supposed to be 4 doors. I must of accidentally removed a couple of them (stupid instantmine command).

The human spawners are simple. In Minecraft, humans are called Monsters. If you don't have Single Player Commands with the Mob Spawner plug-in, in MCedit place a mobspawner and right click it. In the pop up menu, select Monster. It will become a Human Spawner.

For redstone circuits, I still don't know how to use them.

I don't like the recipe for Nether Dust. I mean, it doesn't take 9 redstone gems to make redstone dust, so why 9 netherrack to make nether dust?

I only made it like that because netherrack is easy to get, and its a extremely powerful sword it 1 hits all monsters. so i wanted it be hard to get.

Update 1.5 is out.

Quote(You will need to update your servers as well)

* Weather (rain, snow, thunder)
* Statistics
* Achievements
* Detector rail
* Booster rail
* Performance improvements

More statistics and achievements will be added over time as we develop the game. They?re only stored locally at the moment, but we?ll slowly be rolling out online storing of achievements over time.

Update 1.5 info, as per Minecraft wiki:

QuoteAdded Weather (rain, snow, thunder)
    Added Statistics and Achievements
    New Items (Detector rail, Powered Rail, Birch and Pine/Spruce Saplings)
    Holding SHIFT+Click on something in a chest will immediately drag the selected item(s) into your inventory and vice-versa.
    Birch and Pine/Spruce trees now drop Birch and Pine/Spruce saplings, respectively
    Performance improvements
    Crafting a ladder now produces 2 ladders
    If lightning strikes a pig, it becomes a Zombie Pigman
    New settings in options:
        Ability to change GUI size (Small, Normal, Large, Auto)
        Advanced OpenGL (Occlusion Culling) (For higher-end graphics cards)
    New Power armor image that looks like electricity (in /armor) This file is used when a mob is hit by lightning
    Items can now be smelted with Saplings with the same smelting power as Sticks.

Bug Fixes:

    Climbing a ladder with gaps will not work anymore, but moving downwards is still possible.
    On fancy graphics, the sides of grass blocks are now biome-specific and match the shade on the top.
    You can now move through flowing water at previous speed.
    Wolves have a better understanding of doors. (They will go through doors most of the time, but will sometimes get stuck on the 3 pixel thickness of the door. They will eventually back up for another go at the opened door.)
    The lighting on portals and ice has been fixed (previously had triangles on the blocks) when using Smooth Lighting.
    On SMP, the health of wolves are now syncronized between server and client, causing wolves to only whimper when low on health, opposed to all of the time.
    Redstone in off state is red again.

New Bugs:

    Achievements only work in SMP if you have already completed first achievement in Single Player.
    FPS counter shows Chunk Updates instead of FPS, usually while generating new chunks
    Crash when Detector Rails are placed beside normal rails.
    Blocks can't be placed on snow.
    If you change Advanced OpenGL to on and then back again, giant holes will appear that you can see through.
    Jumping off a fence in SMP triggers an anti-flight kick.
    Rain will fall through transparent blocks and stairs, acting as if there is no block there. This can be a problem if your house has a stair-made roof
    When hitting a grass block the destroying animation is darker on the side than the animation on top of the grass block, though only on fancy graphics.
    Flowing water no longer pushes empty minecarts that fall into it
    GUI: create new world input boxes misaligned under small and normal settings
    Sometimes you might not get an achievement even if you do what it requires to get. This can usually be fixed by doing it in another world.
    Locked Chest is once again obtainable through inventory editing or SMP /give commands. The chests can be placed, but can't be interacted with, and they disappear shortly after placement.
    In singleplayer, game resumes when 'Achievements' is clicked on the pause menu, instead of remaining paused.
    Riding in a minecart from the south into a corner going from north to west (so it's not connected to the current track) will crash the game. Possibly also true for other directions, yet if you're going in the same corner coming from the east, it will work as usual.
    Trying to redirect a rail corner to another track using redstone (a switch) will crash the game.

Minecraft Chess!

Was playing earlier with Haon on his server. You'd be surprised how fun chess is in Minecraft's 3D, ;_;, it's like the Chess scene in Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone. Epic!
We actually played our game on a 1x1 square chess board, and it got rather stuffy and sometimes hard to notice when you're in the sights of a bishop or queen, so I changed it to 3x3 with the piece in the middle for more space. To the left you can see a bit of the tiny checkers board I made :3, that one doesn't need to be so big.

If anyone wants to play.. I'd totally go set this up in igufed's server... bring it >:O!

Let it be known that as of version 1.5 I am discontinuing my server.  Igufed should be pleased as I hope this sends more traffic his way and gets more users to contribute towards his server.

EDIT: don't bother asking for a map upload.  I care little for hosting a server at this point with something as buggy as bukkit and "vanilla minecraft", even less for compressing an consuming bandwidth and disk storage for a map upload.

The only new feature that will appear is the mapping.....

Unless there are any emergency things to fix, I won?t do any more updates before 1.7. Going to E3 on Saturday.

I will be bringing my laptop to do some development, but I won?t be able to do much testing.

ONWARDS TO THE ADVENTURE UPDATE! *holds up sword, poses dramatically*

1.6.6:

+ Added a new use for bonemeal
* Changed the material of glowstone from ?glass? to ?stone?. This means you need a pickaxe to get resources from it
* Made glowstone drop more loot
* Made the recipe sizes for creating cloth blocks and glowstone blocks smaller (2x2 instead of 3x3)
* Re-introduced unlimited FPS, renamed the option again
* Fixed beds not working very well at all in SMP
* Fixed destroying a boat spawning the player too low, causing them to sometimes fall through the ground
* Boats float up to the surface quicker
* Boats falling down into water lose their vertical momentum very fast
* Removed Herobrine
The new use for bonemeal is growing wild grass and flowers. Also I don't get what he meant by "Removed Herobrine"

I don't really play much, but I believe Herobrine is the one NPC-ish type chracter which goes around randomly. It's a NPC which basically goes around trying to scare you. It would appear during times when you're mining or other such, you'd hear a slight noise, look behind you and you have someone staring directly at you.

QuotePost E3 information dump!
Hi! E3 is over, and we?re flying back to Sweden in a few hours. I have loads of information and news to share, so here?s a rambling information dump:

* Minecraft fans are amazing. I spent a fair bit of time at E3 signing t-shirts and cardboard heads, trying to speak with as many fans as possible, and every single person was super friendly and nice.

* It looks like we need to change the release date for Minecraft to be able to get a good venue for MinecraftCon. 11/11/11 is fully booked. One week later, perhaps? I?ll post more details as soon as we?ve decided and booked a venue.

* Minecraft is coming to XBox 360. It will be a new version of the game, designed specifically for console play. We haven?t decided on a name yet. It will feature (but not require) Kinect support, and is being released ?this winter?. It will be a 360 exclusive title.

* Minecraft is coming to Xperia PLAY. It will be a new version of the game, designed specifically for mobile play. This version is called ?Minecraft - Pocket Edition?. It?s built as a native Android game, and will take full use of the Xperia PLAY controls. After some period of exclusivity, we will release it for all modern Android phones.

* On both these platforms, I?m going to be more secretive about giving out details. This is because there are actual PR budgets on them, and I don?t want to mess up any big plans.

* I will be the game designer on both new Minecraft titles, but I won?t be involved in the programming as I?m focused on the PC version of Minecraft.

* We are working on Minecraft Beta 1.7, which I?m referring to as the ?adventure update?. We?re keeping the details secret so people can get surprises. The idea with this update is to flesh out the game a bit, making it reward exploration and combat more. Assuming we like them in play testing, pistons are coming in 1.7.

* I?ve now been to the Playboy Mansion! Woo! Not related to Minecraft at all, but I just wanted to share that. :D

* Speaking of not Minecraft related, I got to see the Skyrim demo (thanks, Tim), and it?s freaking amazing. While the dragons in the demo were obviously scripted (he knew exactly where they would land and such), they claim they?re fully dynamic and unscripted in the full game.

* We?re starting the modding support on a small scale with 1.7. We?ll be giving the source code out to a very VERY small group of people before the release of 1.7. We?ll use those experiences to work out the final details, then we?ll get the modding api out as soon as possible after 1.7 has been released.

* Again, if you weren?t ware, the ?modding api? is the entire source code for Minecraft, uncensored and unobfuscated. You need to agree to certain terms to get access, though, but anyone can apply.

!@#$ING A RIGHT!!

Have any of you heard of the 'NOW' mod pack? It's a pack of very exellent mods for Single player. It implements things like Battle Towers, which are randomly spawned stone towers in the world that have monsters in them. On each floor there's treasure and the higher you go, the better the rewards till you get to the top and beat a boss, there's a LoZ heart increase system mod, a village mod that puts villages and human npcs into the game to liven up your game, whole bunch of good stuff. I know some of these mods have been discussed already, but this is a pack of alot of good ones with an easy installer too.

(http://img814.imageshack.us/img814/8519/10036662.png)
One of the epic Battle Towers in my world (my giant ass wood mansion to the right there).


(http://img837.imageshack.us/img837/6454/58085702.png)
One of the villages with human NPCS...And another tower in the background that I blew to kingdom come once I got to the top and looted everything.


Sorry if the pack has already been posted, but you're joking if you think I'm going to wade through 95 pages just to find if someone posted it. Link to the pack: http://skylands.goonygoon.com/

The TooManyItems mod in that pack is a bit of a cheat mod though, because it lets you give every item in the game to yourself in the inventory window. So if you dont want to be tempted into cheating, uncheck that mod when the installer lets you check the mods you want installed.


One other thing, I don't recommend installing the Mo'Creature mod in that pack, not that version anyways. When I did my world got OVERLOADED with bunnies. It was like breeding season multiplied by 100 or something. Seriously don't recommend that version :P. If you want Mo' Creature, get the newest version that fixes bunnies on the Minecraft mod forums.


Edit: Scratch that, just read the update on the NOW site. I think they fixed it.

After playing this game for about 8 months, (started on October) and over 400 hours of gameplay, (which is an average of 1 2/3 hours each day) I'm pretty sure I could give a review.

Graphics - 9/10
Graphics weren't all amazing and stuff, but it was very detailed considering a 16x16 picture. The ores looked like a bunch of specks on the stone. The texture packs were able to change that though, giving a sort of theme, etc. Some texture packs became 32x32, 64x64, or even 128x128. The option to change the graphics... I haven't seen that in many games.

Gameplay - 10/10
A sandbox game was always a great kind. But being able to landscape land and build good houses and mechanical functions and blowing up TNT! was one of the best gaming experiences I ever had. You're limited on supplies, and your tools can break. The fundamental of challenge worked great in this game. Stuff like parkour where you have to use your moving abilties, hand-made traps and custom adventures... The possibilities were endless, mostly thanks to redstone. One part that kind of discourages me was losing everything when I die. Happening to be near stuff that destroys items like lava was even less satisfying. In the end, I'm able to recover my inventory by remaking it. Most people would just destroy the dirt and mess around with flowers and stuff, then get killed by zombies and such just so they could /ragequit. There was help, however. Also did I mention there's no GORE?

Sound - 8/10
The sound effects really suited where they came from. Lava would make a lot of sizzing sounds, and glass would make that beautiful cracking. The sounds are varied and you mostly don't have 2 of the same sounds in the exact same pitch. What I didn't like though was that there's barely any music, especially when it doesn't suit the situation.

Interface - 10/10
What more do you need? The controls were great. There's only 10 controls in the game which are customizable. Plus you have a crosshair pointing at the exact block you want to destroy or build on. None of the GUI gets in your way (except the inventory) and your hearts shake to get you to see that you're about to die.

Story - N/A

Overall Score - 37/40 (%92.5)

As for mods, if you're finding it so difficult to install mods, just get MyCraft. All you have to do is download mods and put the ZIPs in the mods folder. Then you just run the MyCraft.jar with the Java platform and it will automatically load the game with them, as well as telling you what errors you're getting. I was able to play about 15 mods in one world very quickly. Expand on your experiences!
My world had these mods: Portal Gun, Finite Liquids, (LOVE those 2) Survivalism, More Health, Mo' Creatures, Mo' Creeps and Wierdos, Obsidian Tools, and others

As for updates, noting that the game isn't released yet and has a fanbase of over 3,000,000, the updates suit just about everyone, as the developer (Notch) interacts with the audience. You all probably seen the piston mod getting added into the actual game, right? Well, there's an example.

Currently been taking a break from Minecraft and playing other games.  Terraria and Wanderlust mainly.

From Notch's Blog post today:
QuoteSince 1.8 is still a significant time away, we?re going to have to stop being as secretive about it as we have. We?ll provide information about it as we go, but we?ll keep actual details secret. So, for example, we could say ?added two new colors? without saying which ones, or ?testing experience and leveling to see if it?s fun? without giving details on exactly how it works.

The update is pretty big, and will change a lot of how Minecraft is played, focusing on making exploration and combat much more rewarding, and bringing in a bigger sense of adventure to the game.

Already implemented are new complex terrain features, at least one new mob, some interesting new combat mechanics, a new lighting engine, and some experimental new gameplay ideas. To come is more interesting farming, bigger incentives to explore, and npc villages.

If any or all of this comes into fruition, it'll breathe a whole new life into this game for me! I'm wondering if he actually plans on adding some form of leveling/experience - I know I'd love it, but I'm pretty sure it'd be a huge turn off for a lot of people. However, I bet it'd be easy to implement a switch for having that feature on or off.

Edit:
QuoteAfter the Adventure Update, you will be able to play Minecraft in different game modes. Creative mode features limited flying.
Just saw that from Notch's twitter. I guess that answers my issue in a way.

As you can see, the room is actually flooding, thanks to the Finite Liquids mod. And that jump is impossible, so you must use the portal gun!
(http://img863.imageshack.us/img863/3791/20110628165845.png)
The pillar floods in about 21/2 minutes, which is pretty easy since it's kinda short. The reason why I have 12 hearts is because of the More Health mod.

I'd be on more often, but I'm having issues with Minecraft.

I try to start it, but nothing happens.  I look in task manager and I see the java process is taking 50-60%cpu and hovering around 500mb for ram usage.  If i let it sit, the pc becomes inoperable and I have to reboot.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled java, but, that's as far as my 'troubleshooting' process went.

(http://media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lnvpoh3rJE1qzb7ox.png)
Most of the basics of the game engine is in place, so it?s time to flesh this game out into something more gamey. More content, more exploration, more things to do, and interesting combat! Once this update is out, there will only some tweaks, optimizations and code cleanups left to the core game before we can call it a full release.

We?ve got a list of some 40+ things we want to add to the game, some small, some big. Some huge. We?ve finished a fair number of the items, but there?s still a significant amount of work left. While I can?t reveal the date yet for various reasons, we do have a release date for the Adventure Update in mind, and we?re hoping we?ll be able to hit it.

Jens and I are keeping the exact contents of the update secret, but we do leak some information every now and then to keep people interested and to stop us from going insane. For the most immediate spoilers, you can follow us on Twitter (@notch and @jeb_), or on Google+ (+Markus Persson and +Jens Bergensten).

Here are a few of the things we?ve revealed so far:

    NPC villages
    Randomly generated dungeons
    New biome code
    Fully working Creative Mode (and individual admins can enter Creative Mode on a Survival Mode server if they choose)
    Critical hits
    Sprinting
    More farming options

As soon as I can reveal the release date we?re aiming for, I will!

Oh, and the modding support is happening, honest.

I'd be on more often, but I'm having issues with Minecraft.

I try to start it, but nothing happens.  I look in task manager and I see the java process is taking 50-60%cpu and hovering around 500mb for ram usage.  If i let it sit, the pc becomes inoperable and I have to reboot.

I've uninstalled and reinstalled java, but, that's as far as my 'troubleshooting' process went.
Did you try and re-install Minecraft? Sometimes if you install texture packs with mcpatcher or something like that it can mess your game up.
And 50-60%? Mine usually takes up around 80-90%. :c

I've downloaded new exe's, I've deleted .minecraft from my profile directory.  So, yes, I've tried that.  I do not add anything to the default setup.  No texture packs, no mods, etc.

Capture the Record!!
(not open until 2 or more diamonds, a gold record, and a green record is either legibly or non-legibly obtained)

Green vs. Gold!

(http://img7.imageshack.us/img7/4808/20110707223937.png)

This is what I've been doing for about 3 weeks now. It was a lot of fun making the arena. =)

RULES (also found in the arena)
1. No breaking anything. Fix if you do.
2. Use swords and bows only. You may bring your own.
3. Play the record with your team's color in your record player to win! Using the opposing team's record player will not count.
4. PvP has to be on. (Rule for the OP's!)
5. Leave everything that's not swords, bows, or arrows at your home.
6. No confusing others!
7. Have fun!

How to Find
Go to minecraft.igufed.com. Start at the spawn house, then go straight down the road until you see a sign with lime and yellow wool, then turn right.

Notch confirmed on his twitter that he will be keeping map height at 128, because of performance issues with increasing it. He has stated however that the map height is now entirely in ONE file, allowing modders to change it easier.

Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Chaos on July 20, 2011, 04:55:12 PM
Actually, I'd love it if you could use the slimeballs to make sticky blocks as well.  You know, Sticky Cobble, Sticky Wood.  So, when you push a line of blocks to make a hidden wall, you can pull that line of blocks back with the sticky piston, not just the first one attached :T

Edit: @FFA: That would pretty much be the same thing as ice.  Though, since you can't actually MAKE Ice, I don't see why not.

Personally, as far as improving combat goes, I think we need a shield armour slot.  When you have a sword out, the left click would swing it, the right click would raise your equipped shield. :x
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: 11clock on July 20, 2011, 05:10:04 PM
Not a big fan of critical hits. That would bring luck into the combat. NOT a good thing. Imagine dying to a critical hit and if it wasn't a critical you would of lived. This is normally okay in RPGs if the critical hit isn't something outrageous, but definitively not in Minecraft.

Also, Terraria is doing something similar. Ugh. -_-

Hmm, well I'm excited about the update, and even critical strikes. They have been a staple of RPG's for a good amount of time now, and it adds a bit of variety to combat. It doesn't remove any "skill" per se, because if you can't land a hit in the first place, you aren't going to gain a critical hit. I understand the idea that it does add luck to part of combat and how people don't like that so much, but I'm not so opposed to that in the first place (because to me it just makes things more interesting :P).

I've been waiting since last year waiting for him to improve the Adventure portion of this game, and now he is finally doing it!

Of course, Notch also mentioned coming with the update would be the option to choose between Creative and Adventure modes.

This is another thing I don't want. I really don't think it'd be suitable whatsoever for vanilla, mods are fine if you like that as an addition.

I have NO problem about the player getting criticals, since I'm sure there will be considerably stronger monsters. I do have a problem with the monsters getting critical hits. If your player had a bigger standard life bar (15 hearts or so), it wouldn't be as much of an issue for me, but for now, the player can't take much damage.

I am really dreading this update as of late.

I believe either:

- same as above except you have to start a new world

Both of which do not sound nice, except I have a feeling that the latter will be implemented, which is really bad.

Yeah, that sounds really bad.

It would be okay if that were in like... a hardcore mode or something, but not just normal survival mode.

If that's honestly permadeaths functionality, I have to say that is a VERY dumb idea. Nobody could have thought of a better way to make a hardcore mode without deleting saves? I can think of thousands.

Yeeeah...

Base on the looks, it looks like they pick up blocks and throw them at you. Great, another mob to ruin structures. :/
I'm pretty sure they're not able to move stone and higher, since it's hard to break stone.

I have a question. I have a mod installed that adds more mobs to the game. When the game update, will I have to update the mod?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: EpicPhailure on July 28, 2011, 03:44:02 PM
Yep. Most of the time, updates break the mods, and the mod owners have to update their mods. The time it takes depends on the owners. Notch says he'll be adding mod support sometime in the future though :l

Don't think so. They just won't work.

Either way, you're going to have to reinstall them anyway.

Ah. Alright. My Minecraft client has a way to completely reinstall the game either way, so I guess I shouldn't worry about it.

Haha that's awesome. Can't wait for the adventure update. I've always thought of minecraft as a great game, but was never enough into the creative aspect to really make up for it's lack of adventure/gameplay based content. Hopefully this will help that out a good bit :P

Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: EpicPhailure on July 30, 2011, 05:36:52 PM
If you delete the entire bin folder, the update with recreate with the newest version when you run Minecraft again.

If you don't delete the bin, it'll overwrite the patch .jar inside of the bin folder. All of your mods are installed into the nonpatch .jar, so it won't.

Like EpicPhail said, it won't really uninstall it for you. The resources were kept for me when I updated, no modded sounds were deleted. But you are going to get a brand new minecraft.jar, I can tell you that.

Alright guys. I find this modding stuff really complicated to do.
When I update my minecraft, modloader is gone. So when I try to use a mod, I just get a black screen.
I'm not sure what to do. Almost every mod that I install will crash the game. The only way I can get
mods to work is to use a program called 'ModCraft' which does it for me. But Modcraft has mysteriously
stopped working. Now I am stuck without mods. What do I do? Can someone give me a quick tutorial on how
to install them properly? I deleted that META-INF folder and it didn't do anything. I had some working for a while, but
I accidently hit the Update button, and not I do not have them. Someone please take the time to help me out, I would
really appreciate it guys.

1. Download MyCraft.
2. Put mod zips in the mods folder.
3. Problem solved.

Quick note that you'll have to manually place sounds in the resources folder, though.

Minecraft server for Stick Online players
76.182.225.146

I made this because there seems to not be one that I know of up and running.

Its a vanilla server with no software mods. There are no software mods for the server's stability and for easy maintenance. Also to avoid any incompatibility with future Minecraft updates. Thought implemented some sort of "/who" will be considered in the future. Please join us and have fun!

Unzip the mods and place the necessary files into the folder. I'm pretty sure that just placing the zip won't do anything, and it must be extracted.

I assume "Adventure Mode" or whatever they call it, will be replacing Survival, as it is right now. I mean, it'll still be the same thing, just with some new mechanics now and more of an emphasis on exploring rather than just bunkering away at night.

Title: Re: Minecraft

If you look at the citation, it's stating that redstone programming will work in the "Adventure Mode" that is eventually released, just as it does in "Survival Mode".  Cel's link is talking about the eventual "Adventure Mode", NOT the coming Adventure update, aka 1.8, which is merely adding more stuff to make adventuring in the world more exciting.

It's preference. If you want to stay true to the original textures of Minecraft, go ahead. There are those who want Minecraft to have as much resemblance to realism as possible, and there are those who want something in between.

The hunger meter(apparently going to be a thirst meter too), leveling up, hardcore mode, and critical hits. All extremely big changes in the gameplay which I don't think will be for the better. At the least, I personally won't like it if it's exactly like I imagine it is. I don't believe they're toggleable, either.

The content besides that is going to be awesome, though.

And now we wait.

I'm going to try to be optimistic about what's in the Adventure Update.
what dont you like about it?
The hunger meter(apparently going to be a thirst meter too), leveling up, hardcore mode, and critical hits. All extremely big changes in the gameplay which I don't think will be for the better. At the least, I personally won't like it if it's exactly like I imagine it is. I don't believe they're toggleable, either.

The content besides that is going to be awesome, though.

Well, Hardcore mode is obviously going to be toggleable, otherwise they wouldn't note it as a mode. I believe also there will be the Creative mode (access to all things, flying) and the standard Survival/Adventure whenever you create a new world. As for the other options, I haven't any idea.

Still, I'm excited, because when I first got Minecraft, what he is adding now is exactly what I was looking forward to. Hopefully he'll have monster towns as well!

Personally, I like everything on 1.8, especially the hunger and hardcore mode. Time for some challenge!

(pretty obvious since I play Minecraft more than any other game)

Hunger, Villages, and Hardcore are all confirmed as toggleable.

I can't imagine why the villages would be toggleable, I doubt anyone's opposed to them and it's not like they're going to alter the framework of the game as much as other things.

Really glad those 2 are toggleable though, it resolves all the issues I would've had with them.

If anything, the things that should be given the highest priority to be toggleable which aren't confirmed as of yet are leveling, and critical hits. I can picture hunger and 'hardcore' fitting in with Minecraft gameplay(just making it obnoxiously harder, MC can be considered hard to a degree), but not leveling or critical hits.

Don't think of the critical hits as "Critical Hits", think of them as the jump slash from Ocarina of Time, which does more damage.   ;)

Minecraft 1.8 WAS coming out on the 8th according to Jeb, but it might not, due to the fact that they need to do more testing.

QuoteJeb recently mentioned that 1.8 will most likely not be released on September 8th, to allow time for more thorough testing and quality assurance. Still, there seems to be a careful optimism regarding the release date - while it may not be on the 8th, it will still likely be in the near future.

I'm also experiencing similar CPU spikes, though not enough to impede gameplay. Hopefully, Notch will be able to optimize it all for the actual release.

So far, been having lots of fun. The abandoned mine shafts are HUUUUGE. I was exploring one that just felt like it was continuing every which direction. Of course, I ended up finding two of the new venomous Cave Spiders... while I was being slowed down by water, and that ended my adventure prematurely.

Still been looking for the actual dungeons or Strongholds (unless they are one in the same now, the wiki and what not hasn't been exactly clear to me). Just wish he had a portal system already, I love to adventure, it just sucks that there is no way to quickly return home.

(http://i129.photobucket.com/albums/p223/scotman_2006/2011-09-09_203408.png)
My FPS is fine, but every 2-3 seconds it skyrockets for no apparent reason. I have NOTHING running in the background, AVAST is turned off too. WHY????

Try this program: http://www.iobit.com/gamebooster.html It's a very good program. It increased my computer performance by 40% and eliminated most lag I've been getting in some games.

You sound like a freaking bot. Lol

I can confirm that I'm not a bot. :P

Wow, the vains are huge. I remember my first vain hold 12 coal. Now the first vain I found had 40 coal. And I got 15 iron out of one vain.

And the caves are very mind bending. I'm also surprised that you can't heal yourself with food now, but it makes sense. I heal automatically anyway.

EDIT: Found a bug. If you drop many items, then some you can't pick up. But if you move something around in your inventory, then you'll pick up a -1 quantity of that item, letting you duplicate it as much as you want. And they don't vanish...

The reason I had so much lag, is because my RAM chip in my laptop had become disconnected, and about 5 minutes after I had posted that picture, my computer died on me. I had my friend Gabe look at it, he fixed the RAM thing, and reinstalled the operating system because of a bug. Now it's working fine :D

Well duh.  That's why Notch and Jeb had yet to release 1.8.  And that's why Notch said, when it ended up leaked, that he didn't care if people played it, just to report bugs so they can fix them.

1.8 Pre-Release v2 is out.

Quotejeb_ Jens Bergensten
Ok, so here's the second "pre-release," only use it if you know what to do with the JAR: http://assets.minecraft.net/1_8-pre2/minecraft.jar

Quotejeb_ Jens Bergensten
The beta 1.8 pre-release 2 server is located here: http://assets.minecraft.net/1_8-pre2/minecraft_server.jar

A great number of the present bugs in the first 1.8 Pre-Release have been resolved in this one, so if you're playing the leak, you'll want to update.

List of things Jeb said he was working on yesterday, and assumedly have been fixed in today's update:

Quote* SSP chunk memory leak
    * Mineshaft density (half now)
    * Increased stronghold count to 3 per map instead of one
    * Furnace tile entity crash
    * Crafting bench ghost items
    * Vines (and leaves) crash in nether
    * Use item animation in SMP (blocking and eating)
    * Blocking in SMP
    * Sprinting with right-click or sneaking
    * Added some blocks to creative mode
    * Fixed dropping items
    * Nothing can be eaten in creative mode
    * Enderman client-side problems
    * Chicken and cow drop burned food
    * Squids drop exp
    * 1.7 worlds should get structures
    * Farmlands rejecting melon and pumpkin seeds
    * Bonemeal on melons and pumpkins
    * Bonemeal on mushroom only works on dirt or grass
    * Added item drops for cracked and mossy smooth stone brick
    * Adjusted fog strength at low positions

Additionally, EXP orbs now clump into larger numbers when possible, so they won't crash servers (he forgot to add that to this list).

Mine is updated to the official 1.8 now. 

Same setup as before. Whitelist (using same list as before).  Vanilla server.  Currently nothing built; brand new map. Survival/adventure mode:  minecraft.igufed.com

Different machine than before, we'll see how it goes. 

I'm sure others will pop up as well.

SPOILER WARNING:


Notch announced a new mob today, the 'Snow Golem': http://imgur.com/ADYrx?full (http://imgur.com/ADYrx?full)

Quotenotch Markus Persson
It will be craftable, is friendly, and throws snowballs at enemies. Also melts in hot biomes

Quotenotch Markus Persson
Also, they spread snow by walking around. Nice.

Quotenotch Markus Persson
The snowmen are ridiculously suicidal, throwing snowballs at creepers and spiders, annoying them to attack the snowmen. It's funny. :D

Quotenotch Markus Persson
Remember that snowballs deal 0 damage.

Quotenotch Markus Persson
Sorry, did I say "snow man", I meant to say "SNOW GOLEM", of course.

END OF SPOILERS!


Additionally:
Quotenotch Markus Persson
Fixed a few annoying lighting bugs, like fences under walls and such. We're hoping (HOPING!) to release something tomorrow.

"HOPING".  So don't get up in arms if it doesn't happen.

More news!
According to Jeb:

Quotejeb_ Jens Bergensten
Phew, on my way home again. Finished most of the nether stuff, which includes two new hostile mobs (one is the retexturing attempt)

Quotejeb_ Jens Bergensten
Heh no, no screenshots since you'll be able to see them yourself tomorrow (knock on wood)

Quotejeb_ Jens Bergensten
Oh, and when I said "retexture attempt" I mean the failed attempt. I was forced to also change the model, but it was worth it

The retexture stuff is related to a tweet of his from yesterday:

Quotejeb_ Jens Bergensten
On my way home. I've found that when making Minecraft mobs, it's very hard to take shortcuts :) Retexturing other mobs simply doesn't work

Another joke attached to this is the Mooshroom, which Notch tweeted about a couple days beforehand, and repeated in response to this tweet yesterday.  Unconfirmed as new mob or simply joke:

http://i.imgur.com/7DCvy.png

If added, it will likely be in the Giant Mushroom biome, and you can shear it for mushrooms.


EDIT:  Just realized that I never reported this news, so here's a bit of catch-up:  Jeb has been working on new Nether stuff.  Here's two screenshots he posted over the past few days.

http://i.imgur.com/vQ6MV.jpg
http://i.imgur.com/OQXAR.jpg

In the first one, there is apparently a building in the dark area in the center of the pic, and in the second one you can plainly see bridges.

Of course it's 'real', I got it directly off Notch's twitter.  Whether it will be IN THE GAME is unconfirmed, though (but most likely it will be).  Even the Minecraft wiki CLEARLY states: "It is unknown if Mooshrooms will be added to the game. "

And yes, you're misunderstanding.  It will most likely be called 1.8.2.  If it's still too buggy to be called a stable release, it'll be 'leaked' instead.

Connection issues with my server seem to be resolved.  Although, only time will tell.

As for the current map, I will be generating a new one (again) once the official 1.9 release is out.

The server at the moment is on the 1.9 pre-release.

If you cannot connect to minecraft.igufed.com, try again later.  I made a DNS change that may take up to 24 hours to replicate everywhere.

Edit: Actually, mine will be offline while I test a few things.  It should be back sometime this weekend.

I had the same lag on the 1.8 and 1.9 pre-release. It was more of a jittery lag than FPS lag, although the FPS was always below 20. I found though when I joined an online server on 1.8 I was having 200+ FPS on far distance though.  :)

Could be a problem with your video card drivers or maybe you have some faulty ram. I remember having a problem similar to this while playing BFBC2 after installing some new sticks of ram. Try taking a picture of the blue screen the next time it pops up so you can accurately troubleshoot the problem.

I can't even use the computer to see, to be honest. I tried to do what y'all said and update java, but when I clicked to install it, it did that same restart thing. It's saying "Windows has checked the file system and found no problems" but obviously there are some.

Best thing to do is get a computer expert (that sometimes mean take your computer into a store), wait for someone here to give advice, or just don't use the computer.

It was working for about 20 minutes on minecraft, and I thought I had fixed it by installing a java update, but that it decided to shutoff again. I think it's about time to just buy another computer :/

I set it on Tiny and smooth lighting off, fast graphics and it did the same thing. Now it's not even getting to the minecraft screen before it tries to restart. Pretty much anything I try to open restarts the computer. This thing lasted a LONG time though.

I guess I will try and put in a spare harddrive tomorrow.

ALSO: When I showed y'all that blue screen that said something about minecraft, now it's saying something about Hamachi PlugMeIn.

MOAR NEWS: 


Repairing:

Quote@notch Markus Persson
The plan now is to do another pre release of 1.9 this week. Yeah, it's a beta of a beta. :D It will have item reparing!

Quote@notch Markus Persson
To prevent feeling like you're missing out by not repairing, it's ultra easy. Combine two damaged items to get a new item with less damage.

Quotenotch Markus Persson
@
@C418 Originally, I wanted to have a repair table, but it's too annoying and you end up hoarding damaged items.

Quotenotch Markus Persson
@
@CymonsGames If item 1 has 10 uses left, and item 2 has 10 uses left, you'll end up with something like 25 uses in the final product.


Animal Breeding:

Quotenotch Markus Persson
As thanks for that cheer-up, I will try to add animal breeding. On my laptop. In bed. :D

Quotenotch Markus Persson
They won't stop breeding!!!
(http://i.imgur.com/qt1Ad.png)

Quotenotch Markus Persson
If you hold food in your hand, they follow you around. If you feed them, they enter "love mode". Two animals in love mode = babies.

Quotenotch Markus Persson
Also, the "food" isn't what the player eats. It's specific to the animals. Right now, it's bundles of wheat for all of them.

Quotenotch Markus Persson
You know what would be fun? If every single animal in minecraft came from eggs. Breeding would involve moving egg blocks around.

Quotenotch Markus Persson
Yes, cow eggs. Is that really that strange? ;D


Potions from my previous post:

Quotejeb_ Jens Bergensten
Omw home I realized there's a really simple way for me to implement the "blindness" potion effect. Guess I'll continue from home tonight...

Quotejeb_ Jens Bergensten
RE @XeroJABS: The reason why I don't think the potion effects will be in 1.9 is because there's not enough time to add the brewing system

Quotenotch Markus Persson
@
@jeb_ @XeroJABS .. and because I still vote against the proposed system. ;)


Ender Pearls:

Quotenotch Markus Persson
Ender Pearls have a unique ability now. They're fun.

My server always uses the latest releases.  Whether they be official stable releases or 'unofficial' leaked versions.  You will need to update your client to the latest versions as well to connect to my server just like the error you are getting says.


Edit: Speaking of my server, it is now on 1.9 pre-release 2.  So, if you want on there, update your clients as well.  I did not start a new map for this one, I may once the final 1.9 is released depending on features.

I've now renewed my most terrible moment ever. I was mining for 3 hours straight and found 26 diamonds, then I went to the Nether and forgot to put them in the chest. I then died in the lava with them.

That was a big bummer. I deleted the world. However, that still doesn't make me want to stop playing. There's still so much to do! (like finding Igufed's village on his server!)

Well, seeing as they are "Enderdragon" from the "Ender" dimension, I don't think you'll really need to worry about it unless you start structuring in the Ender.  In which case, no one's fault but your own?

This is hard. :/ But But, hmm. Let me think. >_>

See I don't like the round moon because it looks a bit off. But that's because its in a phase change. And the sun looks great. But I also like the square. And I like the idea of are planets being square.

I voted square.
btw the vote was:
Round!  22,993
Square! 22,986
when I voted. :P I know it does not really matter because we can texture it. But its fun to mess around.

Well its slowly becoming the game notch said it was going to be. Not all but a lot of these things are things he said he was going to do. But creative mod on peaceful if you want it like the older days. Or just don't update. Or mod. Thats the thing with minecraft, you can make it what you want it to be.

I can't wait for the bugfix day that ensues these content releases. Then, the content will truly feel cohesive. Right now, it's kind of like what FFA feels, about how it seems like Notch puts in some half-hearted work and leaves it to rot in a dark corner while he releases new stuff.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: ARTgames on October 13, 2011, 06:50:03 PM
Hey there's a reason why these are updates you have to proactively get and are not pushed on the user when they log in. He makes it clear that these builds are just testing and buggy snippets of what he wants the game to be. I would not really judge him too hard on it. But constrictive feedback about how you feel about the new stuff is what I guess he wants out of it other than to give users a taste.

But I too want a time of bug fixes (I forget the date he said he was going to start) that I know the game will be standing still for a while. Though there is nothing stopping me now (just not updating and play the game I mean) from doing that I just want to do it with new stuff. :)

I am not trying to whine, and I am not trying to complain very much. I like that he is adding things to the game, and I still love the game none-the-less, I just think that the game doesn't have the same feel as it used to. Don't get me wrong, Chaos, I still love the game.

My post wasn't specifically directed at FFA, mind you.  His post just set off my mini-rant.

Keep in mind that I read Notch and Jeb's twitter daily.  I'm CONSTANTLY seeing people bitch and moan every time Notch changes something or adds something, and it's really irritating.  If people want it like Alpha, if people want to spend all their time playing building blocks, they can go back to Creative and leave us people who actually want to SURVIVE in SURVIVAL mode the !@#$ alone.

So yeah, sorry FFA, no offense intended there.

I used this list : http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Hardware_performance#User: (http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Hardware_performance#User:)

When I was building my computer to know about what I would have wanted.

This guy seems to have the same set-up you have :

Windows XP Professional (32-bit)    
Intel Pentium 4 1.7GHz    
Graphics card : ATI Radeon x1650 (512MB, AGP)    
RAM: 512MB    
1280x1024    
Beta 1.2_02    
FPS: 0-5
Comment : The game is unplayable. Even at minimal settings it's very laggy. Some problems might be caused by faulty hardware but not all.

So don't expect much especially since this was an early beta version and was already barely playable.

Worst spawn yet.

There are NO trees and it's just a vast ocean out there.

Apparently this is a bug. Sometimes one will spawn in the middle of an ocean on a tiny island with the nearest trees 3 Minecraft days away.

Is it still in the appdata folder? If you use MCEdit and save, you can recover it. (though you will have lost your inventory when you play it again)

probly at some point I closed minecraft without save+quitting I havent bothered checking the app data yet but thanks for suggestion.

There's no such thing as 1.9 now since it's a pre-release, and it's not long until Minecon.

Started playing it and I spawned on that stupid island with no trees again.

So, I think I figured out a way to improve my Framerate on my old laptop.

1. Start Game Booster
2. Change screen resolution from 1366x768 to 800x600.
3. Play Minecraft on Normal with 50-60 FPS.

It doesn't look as pretty, but it's better than 20 FPS on short!

Got 7 wool so far and its getting tougher and tougher. It's pretty fun I recommend it and I also recommend checking out GuudeBoulderFist on Youtube, good minecraft videos.

I don't want to build a house in the open, either. That would be difficult to defend against monsters. I attempted to dig downwards, but I started to hear skeletons.

Already on it. I found really tall tree and climbed on top of it to get a better view of the landscape. It's basically just a bunch of trees on flat land. I decided to build a house on top of the tree, seeing that I would be pretty safe from anything on the tree (other than skeletons). Didn't have time to build anything, so I'm hiding in a hole for the first night.

EDIT: This is getting ridiculous. I had a bad start and decided to start fresh, but every time I make a new world I see something like this, and it deosn't go away, even after quitting and reloading.

I'm surprised my computer has more than enough memory to go beyond Far with a framerate above 20. I guess installing 64 bit really did help.

Not much seems new because I was playing the prereleases. But the wiki said it takes 10 seconds to mine obsidian now. To me it was 1 second.

As of now, I can't find a dang Nether stronghold so I can make Eyes of Ender to go into The End. And yes, I'm playing legitimately.

Obsidian is easier to mine? I thought the whole point of it was to protect against griefing :/. And RayRay, use Optifine mod! I used to get around 10 FPS on far, now I can play with about 40. I play on normal with a 128x texture pack with 30 FPS, 256x with ~20 FPS.

As soon as MCEdit works with 1.0 generated maps, my server should be good to go again.

New map has been started, spawn area has been created.  Just waiting for MCedit so I can move the spawn back to the original place.

The server will be what I've always hosted; a vanilla server on survival mode.  No mods. Don't ask me to use any mods.

Title: Re: Minecraft

Ok, thought about it.  There's no reason to keep it private until the spawn point gets reset.  Currently, the spawn is in the desert with no shelter or anything around it. 

If you walk east, you should see a castle-ish structure with a wall around it.  It's only 100 blocks away, so, you should be able to see it from where you spawn.  This is where the spawn point will be once I'm able to change it.  If I see or hear you messing with the spawn (by spawn I mean the castle) in any way (destroying blocks or taking anything from it), you will be removed.

The server is just basic survival minecraft.  The difficulty is set at 1, nether is enabled.  Same rules apply as my original server.  Although, if I know someone is doing things they shouldn't, they will get a verbal warning. If it continues, you will be removed without any regard to your feelings. 

The whitelist is the same as my old server.  PM me your minecraft name if you find yourself not whitelisted (and if I approve you gaining access) and I will add you.

The server address is still minecraft.igufed.com

And I have been using my enchantment table, and I don't know how to get more than one enchantment. I put my item back in after I enchanted it, but it won't let me do it again.

I'm pretty sure you can only enchant the item once. The only way to have more than one is to use a higher level one by placing books around the enchantment table and choosing the higher one. This would be before the item is enchanted in the first place.

Apparently I thought 1.0.0 was still the latest version, but then I found the "weekly builds" posted by Jebs. He states that these are "snapshots" with incomplete features, which means that you could give them a test run and report any bugs, but they should not be considered as for playing a regular game.

The Dec 8 version was released: http://mojang.com/2011/12/08/minecraft-development-snapshot-week-49/ Dec 15 found in YFL's post, since I don't need to repost it.

If you want it as a rule, then we should blow them up if we see any!

Also if the terrain is good this time, instead of a giant ominous desert with a castle in the middle, I might build some challenges.

It was the map with the spawn being in a castle-looking enclosure.  Other structures were my downtown and big lego if that rings any bells.

Trog and I blew up his monster grinder yesterday. Was pretty fun. We are both waiting eagerly for 1.2 to be out so you can wipe the world for a fresh start igu :)

Perhaps with a seed spawning us in the jungle ?

Do it! Or maybe near one so we don't have to chop down a ton of trees to make a semi-habitable spawn village.

So, I was thinking of permanently hosting another server.  I'm just not sure what type of gameplay it should be.

The original will definitely still be vanilla survival on hard difficulty. So, I'm asking what you guys would be interested in for a second one. 

If Scotty/Chaos set up theirs to be a RP, I do not want mine to be as well.  I want multiple options of gameplay, not 3 of the same thing just on different maps.  So, besides RP, what would be a nice 3rd option?

One thing that could be fun would be to designate a large chunk of land to be a 'Safe Zone' where everyone could conduct themselves normally and build things, and beyond that, have opposing clans/nations that could go to war with each other or expand further.

I'm not too warm at the thought of spliting even more the already very small community we have who plays minecraft. I say start fresh the vanilla server with 1.2. for persistant gameplay where everyone can play on a daily basis. Then on your 2nd server host PvP events where we can all organize and meet at a said time and date to face off in some kind of capture the flag arena. I have seen this done before but on a french community so if you can ignore the french voice over I will link some videos of what I mean below :

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ml7MBjUewgY&feature=plcp&context=C34b2660UDOEgsToPDskI_9z_azdBeDqheKGkZQJHF (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ml7MBjUewgY&feature=plcp&context=C34b2660UDOEgsToPDskI_9z_azdBeDqheKGkZQJHF)

These are the 4 ones the guy posted on youtube. Basicaly its a closed in arena with 2 teams where we have a bedrock wall seperating teams for 20-30minutes the time to prepare defenses. After time is set the Game Master removes the bedrock wall.

I could try to dig in for more details on which mods we need to acheive this kind of events and if anyone is interested, I for one had been looking forward to play such a match but they kinda stopped hosting some when I got a microphone so I never got to play.

Post by: Trogdor on February 06, 2012, 06:22:21 PM
Yeah, I'd rather have a planned event take place on the separate server than a 24/7 anarchy-type server. Prosper's right; there aren't enough active people to spread over two servers.

I remember there being a Bukkit mod that allowed you to do just that. I remember seeing CTF, Melee and Team Melee, and Tower Defense. I think Nexus came with it as well. Plus, it didn't modify the blocks, (except for bases) meaning you could make your own fortresses. It may have been abandoned, but I have no idea what it was called.

Here is a nice RPG mod I stumbled upon. Its called : TALES OF KINGDOMS. Maybe some of you already played it its been around for a while. Just watch the few videos on the forum topic its a very nice description of it. It basicaly lets you become a king and build your kingdom, collect taxes, recruit soldiers or workers. Go after the enemy faction which I think I heard was named the Reficuls (heads up lucifer). Mod is still under development but there is a lot of content in it already and it really brings a change of pace to regular vanilla minecraft.

I dont know if it is compatible with SMP, but if it is, this could be a nice thing to fit on your 2nd server igufed.

But I built a anti-lag trap for the cactus too :D A pitfall so when I wasn't farming, the lava would destory all the cactus. Quite ingenious if I may say so myself.

I looked at the logs of both of my servers and it looks like you joined the server that is hosting my old Beta map.

Use the default port to get to the new server:  minecraft.igufed.com:25565 or don't list a port to use the default.

Rules are simple.. Don't build too close to someone else's structures without their permission.  Fix any creeper holes you cause.  No stealing out of anyone else's chests/structures.  No mob grinders.  And don't build anything ugly. ;)

Once again, I forgot about the person who gave me the idea of making a college. I asked for what to do, and then he told me to go to college, but I tried to be funny and say it wasn't built yet. Then he told me to make it.

I actually have an idea wave going on about it. I could maybe build a building a pretty decent distance from the village and hire a few teachers about Minecraft tips and other stuf, but then again I could just build it and make it look nice. Good thing I know a lot about redstone, so it can be more organized. Now to capture a villager...

The server failed to save again when igufed restarted it. This is the 2nd time I've seen it done. Igufed and I are considering closing the server when it happens again. (I lost my enchantment table D:)

Here's some other issues we've been having:

Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: igufed on March 09, 2012, 07:05:58 PM
Not totally sure what happened, server got a little laggy, so, I did a save-all, then a stop and started the server again.  Log back in and I'm spawned somewhere else and changes I (everyone) made for the past half day to day or so were gone.

The save-all said it saved.

There was one thing RayRay said that I checked, he asked if I was using server versions 1.2.3.  I checked and I was on 1.2.2, I believe.  So, that could have been the cause of it.  The server is now on 1.2.3. 

But, if it does this again, I may be just giving up on hosting a server for a while, at least until serious bugs are worked out if this was the case.  I'm trying to be optimistic about it being an issue with server versions 1.2, 1.2.1, or 1.2.2 and was fixed for 1.2.3.

We will see.

Just defeated the Ender Dragon for the first time. I was not impressed by his performance. Every time he tried to swoop at me I would just shoot him with my bow which caused him to pull out of his attack then fly around for a while and have another attempt. Didn't even get hit once.

Jeb or Jon should really update it's AI and make it shoot heaps of fire like the blaze does.

Yea, I was a bit disappointed with how easy it was when I first encountered it.

Even though a group of 5-6 of us went, only Ben and I made it past the first 5 minutes.  After that it was just wait for it to swoop down and hit it.  It took about 20 minutes I think to kill it.

It definitely needs to get more difficult.

It's only hard when you don't pay attention to it for several seconds. It's like the most common reason of every player's death. When I first went to fight it with everyone here, I was not experienced enough to realize I had to look for it, so I fell. I didn't have a bow either, so that should say something.

Nah it was on single player hardcore. One of the times he swooped me, it moved me a bit but didn't actually do damage. Not sure if that's a bug or not.

Usually slows down and picks up again after an update.  But, probably because it's vanilla and there's not much to do.

Once the mod api comes out and mods work nicely with the game, I'll see which type of gameplay people want to do and possibly add some mods to make it more interesting.

Lately we've been doing that 'hunger games' style of play.  Best way to participate in that is to add me onto msn or occasionally hop on Scotty's teamspeak server to try and catch us and see if we're doing anything.

Just as an FYI, I will be starting a new map on my main server once 1.3 comes out (which, from a tweet from Jeb will be on Aug. 1st or so)..

I plan to use the 'large biomes' setting as well.

Still vanilla since the mod api isn't being released, yet.  Once it is, I'll see about adding something to keep people's interest in playing for more than a week, but, we'll touch around that topic when we're closer to seeing the mod api finished.

I'm still playing Minecraft. I'm actually playing normal 1.3.1 with just one small mod. (I'm serious, it's only ~14 KB) It's a mod that adds more achievements, and I have finished at least 60% of it. (there are several of them out there, I think this is the one I'm using: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1267627-131-moar-achievements-adds-64-more-achievements-v2011/)

Was looking through my screenshots while modding. Who recognizes this old place?

The day I participated in my first expedition. The mass grief bomb we had. The awesome economy system...

These photos almost made me cry. Minecraft was not the same back then. I love this game and always will. (unless updates stop)

Ah yes, I remember that place. I took a video (http://youtu.be/JUSEuD2N-Nk) of it.
The place, not the expedition.

Those were some great times.  I'd have to say that map was my favorite out of the previous ones Scott hosted in the past.  It's too bad nobody really gets on igu's server anymore, but hopefully activity will pick up around the Halloween update.

Yea, playing solo in minecraft is worse than playing solo in SO.

Hopefully once the mod API is complete, we can think of nice mods to use to keep everyone's interest and have activity for more than 2 weeks.

I disagree.  I've been having great fun playing survival hardcore in single player.   ;D  Working on building up my arsenal and reaching The End, so I can battle the Enderdragon.  Without dying.

I'm going to be doing some stuff with all of my PCs this week, so, my minecraft server will be offline for the next few days.  (might be back up tonight if I'm not lazy)

Finished.  Life got in the way so it took longer than expected. (sorry, trog) ;)

I have a Tekkit server up and running if anyone is interested. I felt like pushing my new computer so I've been testing it out with more and more people.

So on igu's server I've been working on a tower in the middle of a jungle biome.  It took a few maps to find a nice spot, but I found a nice one nestled in between four lakes.  Here's the progress I've made so far.

(http://imageshack.us/a/img189/9931/20121017170143.png)

I also built a two-way rail connecting it to a hill nearby my house.  It's just over 2 km long and takes roughly 4 minutes to ride from one end to the other.  I know it's pretty silly to make two separate rails when there's only 1 - 2 people max on the server, but I just thought it looked nicer and had enough iron for two (both combined took a little over 24 stacks of iron ingots for the rails).

Also, it's a very scenic rail to ride!

Anyways, I have no idea why I'm dumping so many hours into a silly Minecraft project, but I'm still enjoying the hell out of myself for some reason!

With the update tomorrow, my server will be starting over. 

Not too many were active this time around so it shouldn't be too big of a loss, if any.  And starting over is kind of fun.

Also, once minecraft has better mod support, I wouldn't mind adding a few to my normal server.  So, which types of mods or changes to regular gameplay would anyone like to see?

I don't want guns, flying horses or anything like that, but, territory, economy, etc. I wouldn't mind.

So, if any of you have suggestions of a group or a single mod to kind of keep interest in the game for more than a week, I'd be happy to hear it and possibly move towards it.

The iConomy mod on Scotty's old server was pretty nifty, so I'm down for any kind of mod that replicates it.  Other than that, any mod that enhances existing gameplay instead of utterly changing it is fine by me.

This may be a long shot seeing as activity has dropped a bit, but, would anyone be interested in or object to my main survival server turning into a vanilla creative server?

Depending on how it goes, I can still run two once the mod part of minecraft comes.. A modded survival and then a creative as well.

Would be interesting to see what people come up with when they have easy access to everything..

May remove the whitelist and see how it plays out.  See how many issues we have with people being jerks..

But, let me know if you're interested and I'll set it up whenever.

I've never really had any interest in creative servers, but I won't object to one if that's your decision.  The part about removing the whitelist would be interesting, though.

Forgot about this game for a while and decided to start it up again.  I still like to hoard materials and build pointless buildings that do nothing.

I've always enjoyed playing with other people rather than alone, therefore, I've set up my usual vanilla server if anyone else is bored and wants to join me.

Its on survival mode on the easy difficulty.  Really only one thing I care about for rules which is to not mess with other people's things without permission. 

Current server version being 1.8.8.

Server address can either be: minecraft.igufed.com or ts.igufed.com (minecraft. may not work for a few hours as of posting this, but should eventually, ts. currently should work)

Also, can use my Teamspeak as well if you feel.  ts.igufed.com

I might have to hop on, if for any reason other than to hear Igu whisper sweet nothings into my ear with that unforgettable, deep, guttural throat clearing that invokes long-buried euphoric tingles.
