A person walking on a cloud

Walking on clouds? wait, whaa, is this a option in the current version, a patch thing, or what?

It's a feature for 1.7

[Task Force]

ah, I see.

[Pisces]

I don't know Krauter, I managed to make a map and have it update as I walked around.

The vertical lines are 'normal' after you put them away in a storage or logged of for a moment iirc. I've seen this before.

The scale and I think orientation is a random thing for each map. (top side is east) I got lucky to have a scale all the way beyond the Hood this time.

It's not a guy walking on a cloud.

It's NIMBUS! (from dbz, look it up).

Nimbus predates to DB. You also sit on nimbus, not walk on it.

[Krauter]

I'm not sure Picses.. Still no go on any of them.. walked around for a bit and all and nothing

[SgtPotato]

Why the hell am I get 13 fps in MC, after I recently updated the video card driver? :damn:

[Krauter]

D'Oh :doh: figured out why my maps didnt work.. I crafted them all in C19... so they're all centered on C19 :damn:

[Gereke]

The correct coordinates to find your place are probably:

x -119
y 70
z -538

The y coordinate value is the height. So you left out a critical part to find your location.


Whoops, you are correct. :oops:


It's easy to find me anyway, I'm east of the Subsim sign in the snowy area on the map. Just look for the stone spire reaching into the clouds :D

[Pisces]

D'Oh :doh: figured out why my maps didnt work.. I crafted them all in C19... so they're all centered on C19 :damn:Yeah, I wondered if that might have been the cause. Not updating because it is off the map.

[Pisces]

Whoops, you are correct. :oops:


It's easy to find me anyway, I'm east of the Subsim sign in the snowy area on the map. Just look for the stone spire reaching into the clouds :DThe spire helps a bit. But not enough to find it from afar. The mountains are pretty steep in that area. Easily blocking the horizon. Somebody made a walkway in the air (right through tree-canopies) almost all the way to spawn. That should help also getting near.

Got a PM from a fellar going by Tanedin here, so heads-up for another fresh soul.

[Philipp_Thomsen]

Nimbus predates to DB. You also sit on nimbus, not walk on it.

But theres no animation to "sit" in MC.

Also, to control the direction of the flying cloud, you have to use the WASD, which also animates like you were walking. You are walking on top of the cloud, but you don't move, the cloud does.

Easy way to add something to the game without having to code new stuff.

[Tanedin]

Hey, how's it going? My ingame name is Tanedin as well. My own server has been a bit lonely since I haven't felt like updating it at all. I plan to drop in a little later to say hello.

Hey Arc, is our Nether functioning yet? Just wondering.

Hey Arc, is our Nether functioning yet? Just wondering.
It's functional, it was just reset with the switch to Bukkit. :-?

[Krauter]

It's functional, it was just reset with the switch to Bukkit. :-?

Rgr that.. Now I made a portal and keep coming out (if I enter it again from the Nether) to I think your place (Cake is where home is?)... how do I get back to my original portal?

[Tanedin]

Thanks for showing me around C19 Krauter.

[Arclight]

Rgr that.. Now I made a portal and keep coming out (if I enter it again from the Nether) to I think your place (Cake is where home is?)... how do I get back to my original portal?
When you gate to Nether, your current coordinates are converted (divided by 8) and a gate is found near those coordinates. If none exist, one is created.

The area where it will connect to an existing gate is rather large though. So when you go to Nether, if finds my gate and transports you there. When you go back, it again looks for an existing gate and the one I build is the closest to the right coordinates.

Long story short: write down the coords of your gate, transform them to Nether coords and then manually build a gate in the Nether at those coords.

A gate at 800, 64, 240 should be connected to a gate in the Nether at 100, 8, 30 (height really doesn't matter).

Hey Crecy, last night I logged back in to explore your kingdom and got ninja-creepered. It only blew up two cobbles on the floor, had to patch it by hitting the closest sheep because I got killed on the way to the underground (used a bed in your place...).

Has NOTHING to do with minecraft, but oh boy, I laughed so hard I had tears in my eyes...

[Oberon]

Just an FYI, as the primary constructor of the minecraft tube line I reserve the right to make alterations if people make their own appendages to it. By alterations I mean just making things keep the same kind of style as the rest of the stations and make sure the track works alright, other than that feel free to dig away and connect the dots. :salute:

[Krauter]

Hey arc figured out that I ended up at Keabs place and not urs :oops: Was only about a 5-10 minute walk from C19 but I want to experiment a little more with these gates..

Cheers!

Oh and Keab, your place is both awesome and confusing :doh:

Krauter

[Krauter]

K I don't know if I'm doing this right.. why is it that with Oberon and mKeabs gates they can travel back and forth between the two i.e: go from mkeabs->Nether->Obies or Obies-> Nether-> Mkeab whereas I can only go from C19-> Nether-> Keabs and then only Keabs->Nether-> Keabs... I'm building a tunnel currently in teh nether to see if itll bring me back to C19 but why is it so much easier with mkeab and oberon?

Edit: Oberon and Mkeab.. I'm afraid my experimentation may have disabled HGC :oops: I'd fix it but I don't know how...

[Arclight]

Another heads-up. Jwilliams should be joining the fray.


The trick with the gates is just to get the coordinates right. You can have linked pairs as long as you nail that.

Though I guess it's possible Bukkit "breaks" the Nether... seems unlikely though.

[Philipp_Thomsen]

Oberon,

I need you to check the new station I made, the Hood.

I need to know if theres enough illumination to avoid mobs spawning in the tunnels, and I need some help with the note blocks and the button to start the cart in the station, as I never done it before.

I know I could have youtubbed it, but it was 5am when I finished everything, so I was too tired.

People requested a station between the bank and the borough, cos its was way too far apart (around 400 blocks), so I created the hood stop. Its also close to the tree (general sherman).

After this, I need to know who else to link south.

[Krauter]

Another heads-up. Jwilliams should be joining the fray.

Well I got the coords right save for height and when I came through the portal I ended up in some godforsaken cavern deep underground. Not to mention screwing up Oberons and Mkeabs link :(

[Arclight]

Will have to experiment then. :hmmm:

btw:

The place with the cake sign is indeed mine. Think Keab had a place planned nearby in the past though, just beyond the cacti wall.

[Krauter]

Aaah I thought it was his based on the proximity to his.. er. Desert thingy from the map pictures. Anyways, I figured out it was yours after finally locating your tube stop and seeing that it was your station and not Keabs :haha:

Cheers!

News on the next patch taken from PC Gamer site:
Minecraft Adventure update delayed, will now be patch 1.8



Previously we (http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/06/22/a-glimpse-of-minecraft-1-7s-underground-ravines/) brought (http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/06/15/minecraft-video-shows-pistons-in-action/) you (http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/06/13/notch-video-interview-we-want-to-make-minecraft-feel-more-like-a-game/) news (http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/06/10/notch-still-a-pc-developer-minecraft-1-7-first-details-released/) on Minecraft update 1.7, also known as the adventure update, which promised to make Minecraft ***8216;feel more like a game***8217;.
The bad news is that the adventure update has been delayed, but the good news is that version 1.7 will come out on time. Confused? Explanations are inside.

According to The Word of Notch (http://notch.tumblr.com/) the adventure update ***8220;had been growing in scope***8221; and will take ***8220;some time to finish***8221; but instead of taking too long between updates he decided to split the update into two. Thus patch 1.8 will now be the adventure update and patch 1.7 will be a smaller update without the ***8216;adventure***8217; aspects.
Here***8217;s the information (and speculation) we have on the two updates:
Update 1.7:


Pistons (http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/06/15/minecraft-video-shows-pistons-in-action)
Bug fixes


Update 1.8:


The adventure update ***8211; will make Minecraft free ***8220;More like a game***8221; with a focus on exploration and combat (http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/06/10/notch-still-a-pc-developer-minecraft-1-7-first-details-released/).
Underground Ravines (http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/06/22/a-glimpse-of-minecraft-1-7s-underground-ravines/) are likely to be in this one.
Improved combat mechanics are being experimented with (http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/06/13/notch-video-interview-we-want-to-make-minecraft-feel-more-like-a-game/) including a system where you automatically crit if you are in the air travelling downwards.
We know Notch is working on a sky dimension (http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/05/19/minecraft-screenshots-reveal-new-sky-dimension/), will this appear in 1.8?

[Arclight]

"1.7 this week"

Good. I needs them pistons badly.

*slow clap processor*

I'm going to wait until 1.7 to get online. Dont feel like working on anything just to have it go down the drain if and when we need a new map.

[Krauter]

It'll be 1.8 that we need a new map mate..

[Arclight]

Seems likely at least. Fairly distant future though. :-?

[Philipp_Thomsen]

When you say "New Map" you mean we will lose EVERYTHING?

[Dowly]

Yes.

[Crécy]

New map? Bah, I will not waste time building anything in the current one then. Not sure if I want to start from beginning again...

[Oberon]

You do realise 1.8 might not be out for another two months? That's quite a bit of time for building you know....

Can anybody explain me wtf is going on?

I spent the last 30 hours fixing the subway, adding a new station, digging new tunnels... Died a couple of times in the process and lost everything... Now I logged in game and all my changes were erased? The subway station is destroyed, the line is back to what it was before, all my work for what?

[jwilliams]

I have found a suitable location to set up camp.

Location cords are x: -896 z:1845

I hope this is OK with everyone else. I can't see any sign of anyone ever having been here. If I'm near someones area... let me know... and I'll move on.

I have placed signs around the area I wish to claim.

Suffice to say when we (arclight, Sgt, Obi) were expanding it they hit lava and not matter what we tried could not stop the flow, so as a last resort arclight reversed everything you did - Speak to Arc about it I am just a messenger.

And when the map is restarted, this is the first thing I plan to build:

I think I'm going to rebuild my palisade except with more attention paid to equal dimensions :haha: Also, if any of you are in C19, check out the zen garden as well as the courtyard (you'll have to go over the wall sorry the gate is barred :D ) and let me know if my use of water is seen as tacky for some of my new ornaments.. I was just on this morning and having fun and I kind of liked the look of how some of them turned out..

I'm sorry PT but some of the changes weren't accepted. Trying to fix it proved far more time-consuming than was practical, so the only option I had left then was to roll back that area. :-?


Some of the changes? Can you be more specific?

First of... I was only going to extend the subway to my house, from the end of the line. What goes on after the end of the line shouldn't be or not be ACCEPTED, since Im not changing, Im building anew.

Second, if the problem was the new subway station at the Hood, that was not my idea, that was REQUESTED by 2 or 3 people while I was digging my tunnel. They said the lengh of the track between Bank and Borough was too long, and deserved a station in between. So I wasted 2 whole days to create a new station, and it was pretty damn decent.

Also, that stupid zig-zag of a track that everybody hated, (yes, I did the survey), is back. How on earth that can be better than a straight line?

So this is how it goes? I work my ass off for days and you guys just decide to revert the changes without even asking me? So when I log back online, Im in the middle of nowhere, being exploded by creepers and dont even know where to run cos my ****ing subway station is not there anymore.

Now I dont feel like I should log back to this server, cos whats the point? I will build something to find out it "wasn't accepted" and reverted? Thats a lot of sacrifice from my part and a click of a button from you to make it disappear. And I asked online TWICE about the zig-zag track, if it was ok for me to fix it, and nobody said "no, dont do it", so how the **** Im supposed to know?

[Arclight]

Just an FYI, as the primary constructor of the minecraft tube line I reserve the right to make alterations if people make their own appendages to it. By alterations I mean just making things keep the same kind of style as the rest of the stations and make sure the track works alright, other than that feel free to dig away and connect the dots. :salute:
Since making the nescesary alterations was not practical, I was asked to fix it. I did. Beyond that there's really nothing I can add.

Oberon, Task Force, and I were planning to build the 30km radius of The Zone, which it was known as Chernobyl. It is based on S.T.A.L.K.E.R. series and we've decided to build Cordon, as a starting point on the far north from the spawn. However, we agreed to wait for the new map because we have too many on-going projects. So, there's the map that we plan to build it:

But it's ok. I cut of those 2 diagonal walkways over it, and placed neat grey stone blocks to fill up the missing places. And place reminders for myself of what is behind it. I can still reach around it through the other diagonal walkways and surrounding loop.

If you want to make a Fail(e/a)vator,you should leave one level of 2x2 signs in there, so no water blocks in there. That should keep them hanging for a while.

I'm reserving the space behind the embassy for a project, the smallish strip next to the wall seperating it from TF's new project. :)

[Nagy]

Yeah turns out that extension wasn't nearly big enough...

Spike says we're free to expand the city in any direction as long as it isn't South.

Just build a new wall matching the existing one around your build area and knock a gate through the existing wall.

Spike wants city growth to look more organic now.

Ideally I think we should try to keep within the original octagon.

[Dowly]

The bit where the tracks were at the entrance to the C19's mine is to house the community mobtrap.

If you mine in the C19 mine, try not to mine around level 38-44 so to not hit the spawning area (or at least mine the other way :O:).

[Dowly]

Right, the mobtrap is ready at the embassy. Free to use, leave stuff you
don't need to the chest. 1.6 changed something with the water, so some of
the stuff tends to get stuck inside the wall, just make a round around the
killer hugging the wall and you get them.

There's quite a few caves under C19, so that bogs down the spawning rates,
I'll see if I can manage to light some of them next week.

Right, just a little something to get your hands on cookies and apples really. There's a chest behind the counter, below the "shelves". Everyone is free to take a column from it (3 apples and 24 cookies). It's completely free, but the limitation is there so others have a chance to take some as well. Once you run out though, feel free to stop by again. I'll try to keep the chest stocked.

No one is going to complain if you find yourself low on health and without food and take a few cookies, just show some moderation. ;)

Turns out they broke a wire on the case. the wire that goes from the on switch, to the motherboard. so, the case is broke.

Though after a hour of argueing with them about it we (my father and I, boy does he enjoy argueing) got them to give us a new case/service free.

[Dowly]

Mright, I built a cobblestone factory just outside the walls of C19 @ the NE
corner.

How it works is that you wait for the "mold" to fill up with cobblestone (the bit
under the glass) and press the button to move the cobblestone to the side.
Either fill up the whole 4x5 area or keep mining one strip.

If there is room in the mold, yet you can't hear the piston working, go to the
maintenance area (access via the side) and replace the marked redstone torch.

It's not particularly fast, but if you need smaller amounts of cobblestone and don't want to travel to your mine, it's a good option.

[Oberon]

The Docklands Light Railway is now complete!!

Here's a map of the transport network as it currently stands. Stratford station is yet to be built, however the line itself has reached there, and then it's a case of turning right and just going on forever and ever until we reach Leyton and the end of the Central Line.

http://img692.imageshack.us/img692/7112/minecrafttubemap5711.jpg

Fun facts:

The Docklands Light Railway in Minecraft is 3.72km (2.3miles) long.
It takes just under eight minutes to travel end to end non-stop.
The minecart travels at an average speed of just under thirty kmh (18mph)

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 (http://twitter.com/notch) and @jeb_ (http://twitter.com/jeb_)), or on Google+ (+Markus (https://plus.google.com/116872576248355504859)
Persson (https://plus.google.com/116872576248355504859) and +Jens Bergensten (https://plus.google.com/110398919759279012596)).

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 would recommend using it as a travel way point :) Each person build a home or something with a bed in case their travelling out that way. I myself plan on building a fort/cabin a few days travel in that direction so I'd be nice to use it as a waypoint on my way there.

just grab the exe off the minecraft site, and you should have the new launcher

Thar, sneaked in a "funded" project (meaning I spawned my ass off). It's a small building on the surface with a ladder and staircase extending down to bedrock.
http://i268.photobucket.com/albums/jj2/EZatHome/2011-07-07_100255.jpg
There is an open cave at the bottom, 20x20x6, with a ladder connecting to another 2 such chambers above it. I cheated a bit and used a tool to figure out where a slime-spawning chunk was near spawn and centered those chambers in it. Since slimes are so hard to find, it's nice to have a place where you know they should be spawning.

Seems to be working.

I'll be prettying it up a bit, but it's functional.

All the ill-gotten gains I dumped in the chests at spawn, free for the taking. Some good stuff there imho, mostly cobble though.

Bloody hell... seems we lose the Nether everytime going back and forth from normal to bukkit.

There's something I can't figure out: the files are there, it just isn't used. When I restored a back-up Nether after thinking it was overwritten, the old one popped back up so it's just fine. Is there something I can do to point Bukkit to the correct files?

It certainly isn't putting files where they are supposed to be, since the Nether files that are where they should be aren't overwritten. :doh:

Well the Tp was to get you unstuck. We figured you were the victim of an extremely laggy environment (forest fire comes to mind) and tried to get you out. 'T was me that started the teleporting.

Lemme know if there's something to try on this end.

[NeonSamurai]

Ah I see. No there is no lag, it just starts loading the zone I am in for a few seconds, then everything stops and I exit with the error a minute or 2 later.

I did some reading up on it and it seems to be a bug with the code which notch has yet to fix (in fact it seems to be even more of a problem with the more recent version). In the past it would take a few tries to load successfully and then I would be fine, but this time it isn't working at all.

Beware though a few skellies spawn with them as well.

So I've laid out the possible boundaries for a couple of expansion zones to the East.

They're getting close to Fruitloop's castle so his feedback is especially important.

Let me know what you think. If we can't go east we're going to have to fill in the sea to the west.

If we do go for these ones we will definitely need to rework the main entrance. Make it something a bit more special.

Plus I do think we need some more entrances for the city, the number of dirt ladders demonstrates that.

Reading the Better Than Wolves thread (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/253365-173-better-than-wolves-mod-v282-upd-july-24/), I see it is compatible with the
Aether mod. :yeah:

First, you want to install ShockAhPI AFTER Better Than Wolves.
The world class (fd.class) conflicts between the two, but you can safely use
the one from ShockAhPI with only some minimal effects on BTW (Detector
Blocks will have a couple of small glitches associated with them, and you
won't be able to place redstone on Platforms).

Secondly, you need to disable the Axe changes in the BTW config file.

If you do both those things, they work fine together.

I may have ruined some of the beauty of it by getting started on the citadel. I'm very tempted to tear my work down and redo it in something else, the cobble just looks wrong.

[Lord_magerius]

I would love to join you guys some time in the near future if I can get my damn MC working again. And Nagy if it's a Citadel chances are the town/city was built up around that and would look out of place with the architecture, I think a cobblestone citadel would suit C19 from what I've seen of it.

[Dowly]

Notch, speaking about the new mob and how to make it "creepy":

So I made it passive until you looked straight at it. And that was scary.
Suddenly you could walk up to these looking beasts (they’re three meters
tall) and watch them as they moved their blocks around, but as soon as
you happened to look straight at them, they’d attack. And by “straight at
them”, I mean putting the reticle on top of them. You can keep them
visible on screen and actually look straight at them in real life, but as soon
as your in game character looks straight at them, boom.

Still, that was more scary than creepy. It’s like a jump scare in a movie.
You know it might happen at any time, and when it happens you freak out
a bit. I wanted something a bit more psychological. So to really drive
home the point of looking at them being bad, I made the Endermen freeze
and turn towards you when you look at them. As long as you look straight
at them, they stand perfectly still and look straight at you. As soon as you
look away, they will run (very fast) towards you.

Note2. The multicoloured bit on the right is the dome roof. But it's only the exterior part of it. For the height, follow the sideview of the shrine.

Following a brief discussion and a quick vote, the citadel build site has been covered over to create Citadel Park.

This leaves Spike's infrastructure intact should he ever choose to finish the project but for now once the grass has grown we're free to make the area beautiful.

I plan to extend the moat to 2 blocks wide and run it round the entire perimeter. I think I will then create a small wooden bridge on each side. I'm also planning a small memorial to the citadel in the middle, but beyond that it's a blank slate.

My only suggestion would be that if you plant any trees, make sure you stick a glowstone block above it to limit growth and make the top mob-safe.

Enjoy!

Our heroes must complete Skylord Baako's final challenge and discover the
secret of Skyhold! The secret other than that guy who murdered everyone,
we uncovered that last week.

Citadel park is now ready for your input.

Simon and Lewis take a nice holiday to the quaint seaside town of Sunny
Springs, only to find that it's afflicted with some sort of terrible curse! Our
heroes must blunder about in order to save the world

[Lord_magerius]

Bethesda are possibly suing Notch :hmmm:

[Arclight]

Myeah, all a bit silly. :-?

Trademark on the word "scrolls"? Seriously?

[Nagy]

They've a bit more clout than the guy who tried to trademark edge though. Not going to earn Bethesda any fans, bit of a dick move really.

Is it just me or are they getting worse?

[NeonSamurai]

I wouldn't know. I find their episodes very tedious and dull myself.

[Krauter]

I find that too.. was funny at first but now getting somewhat annoying

Just to beat Dowly to the jump for once:

The Curse of Sunny Springs Part 4 - Temple Trouble

I was mostly referring to their playing abilities, but they do seem a lot more forced recently which I think is detrimental to overall quality. I'll keep watching though, things might pick up...

[Dowly]

Don't really like the latest custom maps they've played, the old ones (survival island, planetoids) were much better.

This pretty much sums their current custom maps:

Is it me or did any one else read that out in Griswald's voice? :hmmm:

[Krauter]

:oops:

[NeonSamurai]

Honestly I didn't even care for any of the ones they have done other then maybe the first non custom map ones.

But then I have never been much into watching other people play a video game.

You missed Sunny Springs 5, but it's not really all that. Just more TNT-based cheating.

And slightly off topic, but for those who are interested, Yogscast are going to
the Gamescom (17/8 - 21/8) this year and are making a video diary off
their trip. Here be the first 'entry' (check their channel if you want to see
the rest as they post them):

Ironically I had automated it to avoid just this, but none of those will load. At least the latest manual backup works. :nope:

Simon talks about the upcoming Gamescom while showing his Minecraft world.


So.. apparently, Simon and Lewis (and Hannah I think) are representing Mojang at the Gamescom. :rotfl2:

Is it Bukkit breaking things again?

[Arclight]

I dunno, somehow the automatic thingy doesn't make a proper copy or something.

New players: Fingle Bill and friend.

[Nagy]

The Hood has lost it's decking, and I suspect the tube line won't reach Mkeab again. Certainly all the work I did on a new tube line from Mkeab's is gone.

[Task Force]

Aww... now my new improvements on my tower are gone.
