Steve Co. Supply Crates?

Manco 04-04-2011 02:59 AM

Oh, those things light up? Didn't know that, I'll have to check them out later.

Also, cheers for the sheep farming tip, Max.

DarkHoodness 04-04-2011 04:05 AM

Mine doesn't look so impressive from the air.

Are you kidding? That minecart track looks great. The castles seem smaller than in your videos, though, I must admit.

OddHunter, the SteveCo. Crates give off the same amount of light as glowstone or a Jack-o-lantern.

How come when a torch is placed inside a pumpkin, the resulting jack-o-lantern emits 25% more light?

Ridg3 04-04-2011 05:25 AM

Because it's a game.

I had an interesting day today in Minecraft; I found a few slimes and lots of gold and iron. Also some lapis laz-whatever it is.

I also kept one of the small slimes as a pet. I named him Mr. Bentley, haha.

EDIT: Here's Mr. Bentley's little house and himself!

Wolves exist in Multiplayer, and they will attack other players if you so wish.

Just saying.

Today I started a new world and found a desert to build a giant pyramid in. It will have a maze at the bottom and lava traps around the place.

CrissCross 04-04-2011 02:14 PM

I want to catch a slime and name him phylum

i dont know why?

Dynamithix 04-04-2011 02:54 PM

Because Phylum is quite a slime.

enchilado 04-04-2011 03:41 PM

I wish there was some way to stop slimes despawning.

CrissCross 04-04-2011 03:53 PM

someone made a slime powered minecart its on youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wwXTQHlACE8 its funny because he gets so exited over it

enchilado 04-04-2011 03:58 PM

Thanks for telling me why it's funny. Now I won't have to bother watching it.

CrissCross 04-04-2011 04:12 PM

(i bet you he still watched it)

Dynamithix 04-04-2011 11:44 PM

(I didn't.)

Phylum 04-05-2011 12:11 AM

(I liked the part when he was excited.)

Dynamithix 04-06-2011 05:00 AM

I just hit the jackpot, found a shit ton of redstone and coal, 6 diamonds, 40+ iron and 10 gold! I'm happy.

EDIT: Holy shit, I've found 10 diamonds now. :D

EDIT v2: So I finally made a portal to the Nether and I'm going to test it out later.

Manco 04-06-2011 07:55 AM

I really hope they make finding squids and cocoa beans a lot easier in a future update; getting hold of black and brown wool is absolute bullshit.

I had 24 blocks of Gold, 76 blocks of Iron and 16 blocks of Diamond. I'm a fucking dungeon dweller.

I find blue a lot harder, and neither that nor red are renewable, and are used for a number of secondary and tertiary colours.

Manco 04-06-2011 10:14 AM

Basically most dyes are bullshit. Now, if Creative Mode could be played somewhere besides in-browser (and was updated), maybe there wouldn't be a problem.

enchilado 04-06-2011 01:45 PM

Squids? What? Squids are easy as fuck to find. I still haven't found a single bit of Lapis, though.

Holy shit.

Manco 04-06-2011 02:25 PM

Squids barely spawn anywhere in my current save file, and when they do there's maybe 1-3 tops.

I wouldn't know much about Lapis because a) I've been spending all my time above ground and b) I haven't needed to make blue wool at all.

DarkHoodness 04-06-2011 06:51 PM

Lapis, while not being common, is relatively easy to find - Just explore any deep, bountiful caves and you're bound to find a few blocks of the stuff.



Lava farming - Also shows how to create a smooth lava lake. My new castle will have a big moat of lava... But it'll take a little while, I think. :)

Oh, and it seems that if you build two portals in separate places, you'll teleport to the same portal in the Nether when you use either portal from "Earth", but re-entering the portal to "Earth" from the Nether always takes you back to the first portal that you made, not your second. Deactivating your first portal doesn't work - The game ends up making a new portal in a random location near your first portal rather than teleporting you back to your second portal (if that made sense). Kinda annoying.

enchilado 04-06-2011 06:59 PM

Caves are full of fucking skeletons and creepers, though. I usually dig tunnels around the walls of the cave and fill it with torches, but it's very time-consuming, especially with caves that have tons of fucking branches and shit.

I made a Poirot skin. Suits are bastards to draw in such a small space.

I don't actually have the game yet, I just think that there needs to be a Poirot skin for Minecraft out there.

EDIT: I almost forgot. Here's the skin if anyone wants it.

EDIT 2: My first image has turned into my second for some reason or another. Look at the next post for a picture of him in action.

DarkHoodness 04-06-2011 07:38 PM

Nicely done. :)

Mon Dieu, c'est Poirot!
