I think my compound is safe enough, as the front gate is made up of fence gates. :>

My secret fort is armed with glass doors powered by sticky pistons.

For those who care. New SoI. Not the best episode but whatever. :)

* Added new world file format called “Anvil” (256 max height and 4096 block IDs*).
* Multiplayer light calculations do no longer cause affected blocks to be transmitted to the clients, instead the clients will recalculate the light on their own.
* Villagers will repopulate villages based on how many houses there are available.
* Some nights in villages will be worse than others.
* Added Redstone Lamp.
* Decreased chance for the rare mob drops.
* All animals use the new AI system now.
* Lighting is disabled in creative mode allowing builders to see in caves, oceans and at night.

Well there goes a new snapshot :D also toggleable lights ftw!

I don't get the whole rare monster drop deal... I don't find it even remotely useful. Those items are so easily obtained that getting them from a monster wouldn't bring me joy at all. Specially if they make em more rare x_X

Mabe they should add traders to the game in villages so you can sell junk and buy useful stuff

* Lighting is disabled in creative mode allowing builders to see in caves, oceans and at night.

Hope you're able to turn that option off for the sake of filming.

At 0:03: By the way Minecraft is programmed I'm assuming that's how they actually work at Mojang.

Apparently The guys at Mojang always have a lot of fun, really gives a positive message about working in the gaming industry. Aren't most game companies like that anyway? Maybe it's more Indie companies but maybe i'm wrong.

Oh hell no. You never heard of crunch?

Indie companies are a lot more fun to work in, if not more laborious. Mostly because at a company like Bethesda you are faceless drone thrown smack bang in the middle of all the other faceless drones and the only way you get some recognition is if you're the lead game developer or the CEO.

Really sucks that I have to go back to 1.8.1, it's the only one that's stable for my shitty laptop (irony intended)...........

Oh wait, no one would care about anything I say or do no matter what. Feelsbadman.jpg

Here are the Golems. You craft them with 4 iron blocks and a pumpkin.

Also Up-side-down stairs!

Golems and stairs FTW! XD

As an experiment, I copied the layouts of a couple of buildings from World of Warcraft in Minecraft. This also includes Exoddus fortress on the OWF server - The vid keeps swapping between WoW and Minecraft, so if you want to see where I got the inspiration for that building from, this vid shows it:

Today the four (main?) Bukkit developers were hired by Mojang to work on the modding API. I'm excited.

Also, I talked to one of them (Dinnerbone) on IRC and he revealed one of Minecraft's darkest secrets: diamond is actually emerald.

Just because it's called emerald in the code and used to be known as emerald by fans before Notch gave it the official name of diamond?

Well, no, not just because of that. I'm sure Notch still thinks of it as emerald.

If he wants it to be emerald, he can make it green. And add red rubies and deep blue sapphires and all that. They can all just be variations on diamond, you just need to have three of the same type to make a pick. :hobo:

I would actually love to see more gem types added to Minecraft. Gold and diamonds alone do not a treasure trove make.

1.2.2. update came out! :D

I've played 1.2, It's pretty good like we all expect. The only problem I have is that I can't convert my old worlds to the new format, Anyone else having problems.

Oh and new Shadow of Israphel.

This morning I made a map based on Skyblock. In case anyone is interested in trying it: http://w968406.open.ge.tt/1/files/8w.../blob?download

Note that it won't work on a server.

Here's a video showing the new features in Minecraft 1.2:

Check out the Iron Golems and Baby Villagers!

So 1.2 just bricked my texturepack. Is that normal after an update and if not, how do I fix it? I'm forced to look at MC in it's original ugly form now. :(

They changed the terrain.png it seems - It should be easy to patch the new file with the old stuff using photoshop or something. In fact I could probably do it for you.

*12 hour rule*

Been trying out this adventure map, it's pretty fun.

Oh I got my texturepack working. I forgot that the new 1.2 jar wasn't HD patched, lol.

Playing 1.2.3 is cool, I had a few cats and stuff.

Eventually they kept breeding and then a huge cluster-fuck of sheep kept following me, so NOW I had to kill them all with fire which is sad because I like cats :(

Is it just me or are there major logical failings in the above statement? :fuzconf:

()

1. Cats only breed when you make them breed.
2. Cats don't give birth to sheep.
3. Sheep only follow you when you're holding wheat.
4. Cats sit down when you right click on them.

I managed to make sense of this. It's like a game of "fill in the blanks".

Playing 1.2.3 is cool, I had a few cats and stuff.

Eventually, they kept breeding because my cats kept falling off of cliffs and getting hurt so I had to feed them fish to give them more health. I harvested wheat from my farm and then a huge cluster-fuck of sheep kept following me, so NOW I had to kill them all with fire which is sad because I like cats
:(
