Minecraft [see post #1 for MP server info]

[Geno_Mariner]

Ah right, could use a door... started a project down at bedrock: afraid that despite ample lighting something spawns down there occasionaly.

How he made his way all the way up there is beyond me though. :hmmm:

I keep getting random mobs in my mine despite it being well lit.... :s

[Pisces]

Monsters can't spawn in spaces less than 3 blocks high ;)

[Pisces]

This is the most common mobtrap:

It's annoying as hell to listen, but it's a good tut. :O:

Oh and you can make the trap any size you want, even 1 block wide lava/water trap works AFAIK.I'm more curious about the spawning area. Is there a way to see the inside of your's without a mob outbreak?

[Dowly]

Like with the water thing, I must correct you that it is 2 blocks high. :O:

(unless the dye update changed that)

I'm more curious about the spawning area. Is there a way to see the inside of your's without a mob outbreak?

No, not really. I see if I got the schematics I made for it still saved.

EDIT: Didn't have the blueprints anymore.

Here's a top-down view of a underground trap I had in the previous world. The measurements are all wrong, but that's not the point here. :O:

http://i1183.photobucket.com/albums/x462/Dowly/mobtrap-1.jpg

Orange = lavatrap
Green = loot collection point

The water ran in 2 deep canals and was sliced with half-tiles to keep it all level (pressure plates I believe work too)

[papa_smurf]

Someones now been in my mine No.1 and did this, (which is accessed only by going though my house) and have not been down it for some time as I've been opening a new mine.

Whoever you are, please stop it as its not very nice or is in the spirit of things.

Here's the backup of the last world: http://www.filefront.com/17923879/worldBACKUP14-1-2011.zip/

Yes, finally. I was busy, alright? Took quite a bit of effort too, if I might add. :lol:

(unless the dye update changed that)Ok, you're right. I miss interpreted the mob spawning science thread by fr0stbyte124 (link (http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=35&t=40917))

The water ran in 2 deep canals and was sliced with half-tiles to keep it all level (pressure plates I believe work too)Ok, I wondered if it made any difference if you made multiple levels.

Also your current one seems to be a mob dropper, right? I noticed some falling into pits and die instantly. I accidentally picked up some items and placed them in a self made box near your window with the lava.

[Dowly]

Yeah, I got bored and never finished the trap. The idea was to extend the floors all the way to the trap level, then connect all the shafts so the mobs would go into a one big lava trap in the center, but meh.. works this way too. :O:

Don't worry about the items, rarely go there anymore. :up:

[NeonSamurai]

Personally I always preferred drowning suction traps. The mobs suffer more that way.

[Arclight]

Fruitloop, you got any weird mods? You connecting effectively murders the server.

[Arclight]

There were 3 more...

[ASWnut101]

Out of curiosity, was it an op who came by my place and removed the flaming logs from the pentagram thingy in my yard and the one in my boat's stack? Or have I also been "visited" by our little hooligan?

[Oberon]

I put sand on someones flaming logs a while back. Not sure who's but I generally try to cut down on too many of that kind of thing. It's laggy.

[ASWnut101]

Yeah, I saw that. That was just a tree that I was never getting around to removing. But this is recent, like within the past 5 hours.


EDIT: Like really recently, apparently. There was still dirt where the log blocks were removed, grass had not grown there yet.

[Jankowski]

ok, yeah I forgot you asked that.

Rhys202 is just a friend of mine. he asked me if I knew any minecraft servers that where good. so I told him the IP and told him to be good on it. well, burrowing under someones building isnt exactly the pinnacle of evil, but he was pretty upset when you guys kept killing him and stealing his stuff etc.

[Arclight]

well, burrowing under someones building isnt exactly the pinnacle of evil, ...
No it's not, fair enough. :haha:

But why is it only now that we hear this? You must know that a big deal of the er... "displeasement" with you was because you made/let it seem like you didn't know him.

And as for the lynching; well it's not something I would promote or anything, but if people are shoved around they tend to shove back. You screwed up when they were pissed, and there you go. :-?

If it wasn't you two messing around, then you can thank whoever it was (and prolly is now) for getting banned.


While we're on the subject: management is rather occupied with that matter at the moment, so for now you're still sol.

[Jankowski]

Is there any chance of me and my friend ever going back on your server?

Also, i wouldn't mind someone burrowing under my house, it would make the place seen livelier , though that might be just me.

[papa_smurf]

Fruitloop, you got any weird mods? You connecting effectively murders the server.

I've got no mods installed, dunno whats going on:doh:

[Pisces]

I've got no mods installed, dunno whats going on:doh:Not even a skin?

[Dowly]

Heads up!

10AM PST - 6PM PST Machinima will be doing livestream with Notch and SeaNanners (idiot :nope:).

The site is supposed to be Machinimalive.com, but that only leads me to facebook. :hmmm:

Machinima's ustream channel mentions the happening, so guess it's streamed there too.
http://www.ustream.tv/machinima

[Dowly]

Stream is up, actual broadcast starts in ~10min
http://www.ustream.tv/machinima

[Dowly]

Notch pops in in 5-10 minutes. :up:

[Arclight]

Good, tell him to get his butt back in the office. People are waiting. :lol:

[ASWnut101]

Ok, so I go to log on and it says I'm banned from the server. WTF? :-?

[Arclight]

Ya, that would be because there's reason to believe you are responsible for damage to Krauts' home.

Krauter confirmed damage to his home a few hours ago, and I have reason to believe it was caused by you, though I must admit he hasn't been online much so it's difficult to narrow down.

So I would just ask directly: have you intentionally or unintentionally caused damage to Krauts' home?

Also if you could give any indication on when you last visited there would be really helpfull, and if there are situations you recall that could be misinterpreted please give me your side of the story.

[ASWnut101]

Eh, figures. Luck of the Polish.


Intentionally, hell no. Why would I do that to Krauts?

Unintentionally, possibly, but I don't remember damaging anything during my last visit there, which was during the last time I was logged on. In fact, I think I may still be there up in his tower. I wasn't lagging, so I'm pretty sure a creeper didn't get near me.

What was I doing there? Checking on the progress of his huge underground chamber thing, cause I had nothing better to do at the time. Where did he say the damage was?

[Arclight]

Bit of glas missing, some missing ladders but no stolen items.

Denying you access gave me a chance to just ask you and gauge the situation without risking more damage should it be justified, but I don't think I can justify it any longer at this point. My apologies for the inconvenience. :-?

[ASWnut101]

Yeah, I understand your caution. Everyone's a little jumpy I guess.

On that note, I didn't notice any missing ladders on my way down to his chamber, and his shack had one missing glass block on the east side. I'd try to tell you what time I logged off, but I have since forgotten, but I'm pretty sure it was about 5 hours or so ago. Just a little after you logged on and about 10-15 minutes after Zirran left. Perhaps the logs show other log in activity afterward?

[Arclight]

Jumpy, paranoid, blood-thirsty... came to a revolt last time. :-?

No, all quiet. Krauts wasn't online for so long it may well have been caused long before last night.


It's those bloody creepers I tells ya! Blowing us up wasn't good enough, nooo, they had to resort to stealing and screwing with our heads. Now those are the real griefers. :shifty:

[Geno_Mariner]

Creepers keeps destroying the front of my fort. I think I'm gonna have to build that bridge to Spawn pretty soon...... so I don't keep coming out to see Creepers on my doorstep! :stare:

[papa_smurf]

As I can't figure why I'm causing problems with the server, decided to delete Minecraft. So feel free to takeover/remove my home, and all that's in my storage chests.

[Geno_Mariner]

You sure? :s What's your MC username again.

If you want to you can connect to my bridge to spawn.

[Pisces]

As I can't figure why I'm causing problems with the server, decided to delete Minecraft. So feel free to takeover/remove my home, and all that's in my storage chests.Perhaps it is sufficient for Arclight to temporarily remove or relocate the player-specific .dat-file. (/world/player/*username*.dat ) And then you can try to log on and see if it solves it. All that you would loose are your items in your inventory I think and or your skin. Your home will simply still be there untouched.

[Arclight]

Aye, let's not give up too fast. If it still doesn't work, perhaps there's something that can be done on this end.

[Geno_Mariner]

If you want to you can connect to my bridge to spawn.

I'll have to figure out the bridge when I get to it, don't want to build it and accidentially wreck something.

@Arc: That's what I thought too.

[Kapitän Schneider]

To help with the griefer problem, i've brought someone along who will root out the culprit. I don't think I have to tell you his name do I?

You are not permitted to complain about Lag ever again. That much flowing lava is your reason.

Since I placed that lava i've noticed little or no lag.

Zirran, I'd appreciate it if you changed your skin.


I've already asked someone else(I think it was Nowyoudie), to change theirs back in the last map. It's only fair that I ask you to change yours too.

It's not that I take offense to it, but I don't want any problems to come from you using it.

I don't see what problems could arise from me using the skin but I will change it. Looking for a skin that I can't find anyway. Might have to sign up to the Minecraft Forums and ask someone to make me the custom skin.

Yes I've searched it but it hasn't got what i'm looking for. I want a Miami Vice skin of Sonny Crockett but it looks like no one has done one yet.

[Krauter]

Well.. the server is crapping out on me.

I can't connect.

[Pisces]

Me too. I should call it a day anyway.

[Geno_Mariner]

Can't connect to Minecraft.net :-? Ah well, it should be back soon.

[Krauter]

Yea, minecraft.net is down.

[Geno_Mariner]

It's back guys, I just signed in.

:yeah: Thanks mate!. I love these guys. Hilareous, witty and a plot that has some twists and turns. Very well done

[Dowly]

No probs. :up:

And yes, they are hilarious, no wonder, being Brits and all. :O:

They usually release a new video during the weeks at 2100-2200Z. :salute:

[Krauter]

Thanks :)

At first I only liked them because of the British accent :O: but, after a while I just got hooked to their sense of humour

[Dowly]

Oh, they were on a podcast called TIPOAA (Totally Incredible Podcast of Amazing Awesomeness), here's the recorded stream of it if you want to listen:

New blog post from Notch. He's promising more types of half sized blocks...

[Dowly]

Also a new redstone related block is coming. :yep:

[Spike88]

Just ran into shack 3 before sundown, i nside I found 12 iron ingots, and 2 pork chops that I forgot I had. :yeah:

I then decided to turn all my surplus coal and clay blocks into bricks. Only to realize the only way to reclaim clay from clay blocks is to place them and break them. One by one. :damn:




Edit: Also I'm bringing in a new member. Her name pretty much gives away who she is.

[ASWnut101]

Hm, did anyone stop by my place in the last day or so? Someone "moved" a layer of glass from my little underground spot down a layer. If you don't know, its the place next to the boat and tower.

[Dowly]

The new redstone block:

[Krauter]

So MC has been updated or...?

What else is coming with this release?

[Spike88]

So MC has been updated or...?

Pure speculation but we'll probably see the update sometime this or next week, before Notch leaves for GDC.


As for what else is coming, notch said we would get more half blocks. Also I wouldn't be surprised if they threw cocoa in there. And a new mob.

[Spike88]

Can we get a new map soon? I'd like to see my progress. :D

[Gargamel]

So.... I don't get MC.

Just don't understand it.

BUT.... I know you knuckleheads do... and over on http://shirt.woot.com (one of my favorite sites).. they have what I think is a MC t-shirt.

It'll be up till 0000 CST (thats 0100 EST, 0600 GMT). They're CHEAP (only $10, free shipping if you go the slow route) and they're NICE t-shirts! Comfy! I have maybe 3 dozen different ones from them...

they were lying at the bottom of the lava when I blocked off the lava to see what was glitching up in there lol

[Oberon]

:o:doh:

Very random.

[Dowly]

Aye, saw something similar in my mobtower's 'killing floor', dead creepers and zombies laying all over the place. :doh:

[Pisces]

Zirran (or whatever your Subsim nick is),

Somehow this afternoon a bunch of creepers wrecked the northside of your wall while I stood inside a little room you built (near your tower), while being AFK. I patched it as best as I could. If you want I have some screendumps to show how, what and where. Should be easy to find in the dark on the north wal. PM me if you need them.

[Arclight]

Righto, little bit of resource redirecting: I wants to host a bit of Arma on Tuesdays. Might start a little early, so we can get in some time Monday night, but once it ends on Tuesday I'll switch back over to MC. If there's no game on Monday I prolly won't switch to A2 untill the afternoon on Tuesday. At any rate, I'll really try to give some fair notice.

At any rate, just a fraction of the time when MC will be running. Definetly don't mind hosting it, but a little variation... well I just "require" that, really. I miss the time spend on Arma, or rather the time playing together. Hosted fairly regularly in the past, untill MC became a really dedicated thing.

[Drewcifer]

Its yours to do with as you wish. Also I'd be down with some Arma 2 as well but I haven't played it all that much, not really all that great.

[Krauter]

As Drew said, it's your server :O:

Ooo, that's cool! Now we just need some furniture too! :yep:

As for compatibility with SMP, I don't know, much like the Nether, I can't see how it would work. :hmmm: Tho, invidual spawn points sounds good to me. :yep:

[Arclight]

Yeah I was refering to the spawn bit. That would be nice to have, and since mods already manage individual spawns, it shouldn't be too improbable.

[Dowly]

Yeah I was refering to the spawn bit. That would be nice to have, and since mods already manage individual spawns, it shouldn't be too improbable.

Aye, I figured you mean't that after I replied. :O:

[Spike88]

Too bad beds will be useless until next month, as I don't see the "nap" feature working in MP.


Although, it would be nice if you regen Health while laying in bed. Since I usually spend the nights in my shack reading, or watching something, it would be nice to be able to lay down in SMP and regain health while you're doing something else.


Edit: There was a lonely random iron door in the spawn area. I believe it used to be the door for the Animal farm. I felt that it needed some company so I pilfered it. If it was supposed to be used elsewhere, or if it belonged to someone, I'll return it.

[Pisces]

It's been a bug in my eye ever since I stepped foot in subsim world.

On minecraft updates, would I need to download the new executable myself. Or does the current client program automatically download and update some jar files? How does the process work?

[Krauter]

Automatically updates.

Like Krauter said it automatically updates. When you log in it will download any available updates automatically. Although in the future, when we get the new launcher, it will ask us if we want to update.

A good question is whether or not we'll need to manually download the new launcher, or if it will just update with the next version.

Yeah I didn't know what else to do with it. I hope it enjoys it's new home.

Is anybody else having problems with their stuff when they die at the moment?

I'm either finding that it's all gone, or that when I get back it's there but I can't pick it up, just stare longingly at it.

[Krauter]

Having that same issue as well. Before I always made it back in time. Not so now.

[Krauter]

Is it just me logging in at bad times or is the server dying? I haven't seen anyone online in the past 3 days.

[Drewcifer]

I haven't been online in a few weeks.. so I dunno if its just me or everybody is slowing down too.

[Krauter]

Not sure what it is.. I find myself playing SSP now more, mainly because of Mo' Creatures Mod and a Minas Tirith Map. Nothing like riding a Pegasus through those streets :rock: Still afraid to turn it onto hard though.. don't want creepers to wreak havoc in the city :( It's so nice.

I'm not sure though, it seemed to be busy now it's just dropped off..

[Dowly]

Aye, gave all my stuff to Crecy and switched to SSP, I find it more enjoyably. :hmmm::yep:

[Spike88]

Well, my area has been properly measured out. I'm now working on building the Foreman's building thing/warehouse thing. I'll then move all my supplies into one center location, and destroy all the shacks.

[Krauter]

Why is that Dowly?

I'm sick of being repeatedly ****ed in my cave by mobs who shouldn't be spawning in a well lit cave and not being able to find diamond and getting killed by lava, losing items either because of lags, creeper ganging up on me etc. So I'm not on it much...... lost all my iron and gold because I had it with me then a creeper or something attacked me til I reached my moat in a chunk error and destroyed everything I had with me :\

So that's my reason for not being around..... (if I sound pissed, it's because of this heat :stare:)

[Spike88]

Yeah, sadly I think our griefer has pushed most people away.


And the griefer has seemed to have left too. :hmmm:


Is it just me, or do switches no longer show if they are open or closed?

I know how you feel. I have Mobs spawning in my place even if its a small area and well lit.

Is it just me, or do switches no longer show if they are open or closed?

Switches don't exactly work in Multiplayer. They don't show their animations and can jump to other blocks. But they will open doors and do everything a switch is meant to do.

New Update:
Implemented a new lighting engine with the help of MrMessiahs (can be turned off)
* Changed the options around, added a new “Graphics options” button
* Added beds. If all players in a map sleeps in a bed during night, the game immediately skips until morning
* Added three new half-size blocks
* Added Delay/Repeater redstone dust blocks
* Added whitelisting to the server. To use, enter “whitelist <cmd>” where cmd is “on”, “off”, “add <player>”, “remove <player>”, “list” or “reload”
* New save file format, old maps need to be converted (that might take a while..)
* It’s now possible to have more than five save slots, and to rename saves
* Scrollbars in both the texture pack list, and in the map selection screen
* Replaced the Mojang splash image to reflect the new logo colors
* .. and a bunch of bug fixes and tweaks!Also new loader here:
http://www.minecraft.net/download.jsp


Edit: Odd, new loader wont let me into MC, but old one will.

Are you updating before you bring the server back Arc?

That and the sandstone. But Eh, what's done is done.

Can anyone else connect to the MC.net from the new loader? I can do it from the old one(which I just deleted), but not from the new one.


Also Arc is playing A2, so the server probably wont be up until later.


Edit: Brief look at the forums, and apparently the new launcher is broke, you can connect via the old one though. Also if you try to convert your old maps to 1.3, there is a chance that it will erase everything on the map. This may also pertain to MP.

[Nagy]

I'd seen that, it's mostly happening on modded installs.

I've got the same issue with the new launcher. Fortunately I hadn't cleaned out my recycle bin.

[Krauter]

How to convert worlds?

[Spike88]

How to convert worlds?

Edit: And what does seeding mean for the world?


When you go to load a map in the new launcher(don't know about the old one), it'll tell you that you'll need to convert it to open it.

As for seeds, it's the number used to make a world. So if you were to give someone your seed number, they would get the same exact world as you.

[Krauter]

aah ok I get it

[Dowly]

Wooden half-blocks are considered stone BTW. (try breaking them with axe vs. pickaxe)

[Krauter]

Ja pick works better.

Also, as for the broken launcher.. I only had an issue updating. But I deleted my bin file (with all mods.. time to reload them all when they're compatible :damn: ) and no problem now.

[Arclight]

Are you updating before you bring the server back Arc?
It is, and it will be back in about 30mins if there are no more players for ArmA.

[Kapitän Schneider]

Ok a few things I have noticed with the new update.

Switches and levers now show their proper animations.

Beds work in smp.

Haven't run into any chunk errors yet.

And I found 1 Slime which turned into 4, then they all started trying to moleste me. Picture to follow.

I remember my first slime. Scared the **** out of me. Mostly because I was mining in the semi dark on peaceful.

Sounds about right. Was hoping the new save format got rid of the chunk errors. And beds should work in MP too if everyone uses it, but it has some nasty side-effect, both in sp and mp...

Aparently there's a chance of a mob spawning at your bed. Dowly dug up some info somewhere.

Aparently there's a chance of a mob spawning at your bed. Dowly dug up some info somewhere.

From minecrafwiki

When used, the player is positioned in the bed and their view slowly fades to gray. After this transition, the player wakes up at dawn. However, if a mob is within proximity of the bed and has access to it, you will be awakened with the mob standing next to you. There appears to be a slight delay before the mob attacks you giving you time to get the first blow.

Seems it has been edited, before it read that mob can spawn even in well lit places when player uses the bed.

Ah, so it's intentional. Nothing beats waking up to a creeper next to you. What does it mean by have access though? Wouldn't doors work to prevent this?

Ah, Figured it was either you or Nagy.

No, it was easier to go in through the hole to get my stuff out of the shack than to walk around the front.



After dungeon crawling through God of Zelda, I mean Darksiders(awesome combination between Legend of Zelda, and God of War(Awesome in the sense that it was totally worth the $14 dollars I spent on it)), I've come to realize there are four(well five, but I'll get to that) things I'd really like to see in minecraft.
1st: Statues, make statue parts out of 3 blocks(smooth stone, gold, iron, and obsidian) in a
x
x
x
shape.

Placing 1 statue part down and you'll get a generic bust type statue.

Place 2 and you'll get a statue of a human, player height.

Place 6 in a
xx
xx
xx

And you'll get a giant player statue.

2: Marble, to make authentic looking Roman/greek buildings.

3: Moving platforms. Would function like the bridge mod, but go up or out to a predetermined length. Whatever material is used to make them out of is what they'll be made out of.

Useful for hiding stairs or platforms under lava(perfect for making puzzles), or could also be used to make secret passages.

4. Arches, or even Triangle pieces that can be placed in corners to allude to arches.



My fifth desire for Minecraft comes from Littlebigplanet2, in which you can program the robot sackthings by placing actions on a computer chip.

This made me think of computer chip circuits in MC. They would be made of 9 redstone. It would take up as 1x1x1 block space, and would have 4 INPUT/OUTPUT's, one on each side(besides top and bottom).

Right clicking on it would open the 3x3 crafting square, in which you can place redstone torches, redstone, and the repeaters. Everything placed in it would work like standard redstone wiring, and interact with any wiring near the Input/outputs.

Basically, it would allow you to compact your redstone workings.

[Geno_Mariner]

Won't be able to come into MC for hours for a little while til I get net sorted but that doesn't mean a free ticket for rats :stare: I'm on mobile broadband since I'm in my new place, trying to get proper net asap. But there'll be times where maybe I can come in for a few mins :-?

Woo thanks Arc :up: I've managed to get it working this time. Anyone who wants to download, extract and then finally convert it has a long wait ahead of them.

[Lionclaw]

Why is that? :06:

Can't come up with anything to build, completely blank in my mind.
It has become an eyesore due to an attempt to build something and later tearing it down, and I don't have as much time as I used to have.

Think I might just find a new area, or wait until the next world.


There's stuff in the chests at my now abandoned place, I only took the essential stuff that I can carry.

[Arclight]

Ah, I see. Thought we lost you altogether there for a second. :lol:

Minecraft needs pipes and pumps. :O:

[Kapitän Schneider]

Ok I need some help. Downloaded the old map and I thought everything is fine. Everything looked like it was in the right position, I spawned at the proper spawn. But when I get a cerain distance from the spawn my FPS drops too 0! Then it is unplayable due to the extreme lag. I set up a server and played the map through that but there apeared to be a map shift and some peoples projects are mixed into someone else's.

Anyway is anyone else having this problem in single player with this map or any other?

[Kapitän Schneider]

http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt348/Brandenburger7/TheMap.png

I used a cartography program on the map and for some reason there are these weird chunk lines from east to west going all the way up the length of the map. I can't cross the highlighted areas without my FPS hitting 0. Funny thing is if I back out of these zones, my FPS returns to normal.

[Dowly]

That is pre-beta 1.3 problem, no idea what causes it, but someone mentioned it and showed a screenshot similar to that to Notch in some livestream.

[Jankowski]

I am currently playing on a different server. I would like to prove to you guys that i am not a griefer. If you want, I can give you the IP.

I can't cross the highlighted areas without my FPS hitting 0. Funny thing is if I back out of these zones, my FPS returns to normal.Is that really the subsim world? I don't recognise it. I know I've been absent there for the past few weeks, since Beta 1.3 or so. But it can't have changed that much.

p.s. Did you check if the carthography program has been updated to the new chunk-format?

[Oberon]

That is the world, well, the last world anyway. I recognise Lionclaws temples and West Ham station. :yep:

[Kapitän Schneider]

That is pre-beta 1.3 problem, no idea what causes it, but someone mentioned it and showed a screenshot similar to that to Notch in some livestream.

Strange thing is I can't get any where near those odd chunks without my FPS dropping to zero, but I can move about in it in multiplayer. Even weirder is the places that seem to have dissapeared in those chunks have actually been moved to other chubks sometimes on the other side of the map!

Did you check if the carthography program has been updated to the new chunk-format?

Its the latest cartography program available. Its worked on other maps with out no problems, but this is the largest map its ever done. With some mapping modes it crashes because my computer can't handle it.


Also you know we could never figure out why there was so much lag towards the end of this map and some of us thought it might be a large forest fire we couldn't find? Well I think I found it.

http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt348/Brandenburger7/World.png

[Lionclaw]

Well, after some thinking, I've reclaimed my place. :oops:

I went there earlier today, and no one seems to have been there.


So I'll try and make something out of it. :hmmm:

[Arclight]

Just swapped out the router (faster internet, yay!), so I'll need to tinker with it a bit to set up the proper ports and such. Server will be unreachable for a bit.

* that should do it. :)

Donno if I should tear it down or leave it with no roof. But fack it was nice..I'll post pics if I can get the energy to do so :O:

Black screen crashes exist in single player as well. :nope: :shifty:

[Krauter]

You trying any mods? or.. Is it black screen on load up? Or are you getting CTDs?

[Lionclaw]

No mods.

The screen goes black, and Minecraft stops responding.

It usually happens when walking around. This time to my surprise, in a new world while exploring. :-?


I thought it was just a multiplayer issue. I haven't played single player for quite a while, must be months now. I think it was some alpha version when I played single player last time.

How far down have you gone?

[Nagy]

I've got plans for a railway at some point, I just need to finalise the route out to my place. It's a very narrow gap between Spike's pit and Kraut's place.

There's not a huge need for a railway just yet because most players are less than a day's walk from the spawn.

I'm still plugging away at my second place, I've got the build site marked out now, I just need to take it down to sea level.

[Oberon]

Yes, I must push the railway forward, I keep meaning to but then the big project distracted me and my work hours have kept me away, plus the upgrade. I'll have to get back to it and see what I can do. The spawn station is complete at any rate.

The second one is pretty darn awesome tool similar to Eihort called MCExplorer (http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=1022&t=96591) which does pretty much what Eihort does, except it just looks much much much better.

Blow one up, no problem. Figure just hit the last two and itll be no problem. 2nd blows up fine and dandy, but the third ***** decides to obey physics now and shoots down to the front of the cannon and blow the front end off.. fuuuuuuu...

At least the timing computer wasn't damaged :shifty:

C-C-C-C-Combo breaker!

The first railway line is under construction, between the spawn station (Bank) and a station just short of Task Forces place (London Bridge).
The aim is to provide access to Task Forces walkway, Geno-Mariners fort and my fort from London Bridge station via subways, however some hinderences have been encountered with this plan because of blocks that won't go away when you hit them (very, very annoying) so for the moment I'm mainly working on the north and southbound tracks. I'm not so brilliant with boosters, so Keab will have to put them in afterwards, but due to climbing spiders it's unlikely that any of the new railways will be above ground and as such, this is going to take a lot longer to complete than usual.

Who's building the big ship?

I dug a safe-hole nearby to survive the night and wonder if ye be needing a hand to nail ye timbers.

I'd love to see that ship up in its full glory.

And then a creeper spawns in the mess hall's bathroom...

I think we should have a Resource Exchange on the server adminstered by the ops or at least someone designated to act as trader. I really want to get my hands on some materials from the Nether and maybe some other rare items, pumpkins, gold disc, even certain mob spawners i've seen up for sale on certain servers.

The only thing is we need to work out a Exchange rate and what can be exchanged for wanted items. I know Nagy was thinking of exchange rates some time ago and i've been looking for other server's exchange rates.

So what does everyone think?

That would be me.

I'm on a temporary break to work on the railway. :yep:

They either need to be underground or elevated like the DLR, surface tracks are a no-go now.

Yup. Might do a DLR out at some point, we do have Bank station after all. At the moment it's just the Northern Line which will go North/South and then the Central Line will go East/West.

I'm just under halfway across the lake heading for Spud and Zirrans place, will then skirt around Zirrans wall and then head south for Crecy and Kolaaja.

No love for the closest of all, me?

You'll be on the Central Line. I've no idea what to do with you if I'm honest because of the bloody great big hole you're digging. I've already tunneled into Task Forces pit, I've no idea where yours is. :haha:

I've given up on the hole, building fields, a japanese castle, and a small city.

[Oberon]

Pretty. Very well, I'll plop a tube station in the area. So long as you're not building the city underground ala Tokyo 3 then there shouldn't be a problem. :yeah:

That may actually be a good idea..

I did start a project like that back on the first map in my 'Atlantis' area. It was going to be something a bit like this:

I'd say that unless Arc is planning to leave the map up for the next decade and we work on it every single day...it's a bit beyond our grasp. :haha:

I was thinking of something more along the lines of digging out the center of the hexagon to ground level, building a small city in the small area and then covering the top with 2-3 layers of dirt and then a layer of smooth stone or obsidian(like a metal barrier). And then building my japanese castle ontop of it.

More Neo tokyo Cyberpunk less Steampunk.


Edit: To make my goal more of a reality, I need a couple of these:

Nice place Dowly :)

Also, I'm not sure if I want to give up GeruDoku for the new texture pack.. I'm still kind of stuck on that one.

I dunno, the Doku is looking very nice. Although I don't care for the diamond and lapis azule blocks.

[Krauter]

I'm just worried he'll abandon this one as well and by that time I'll have grown used to it :haha:
