Say, if the tree has to go, can I at least film it like we did with the enderman costume? :) Perhaps we can do it on the same day as the enderdragon dungeon.

Havoc 04-18-2012 03:30 PM

I'm joking, dude. Jeez :p

enderdragon dungeon

Speaking of which, can we do that before next Sunday? That's the end of my holiday.

I'm almost certainly heading back to Australia in a couple of weeks to stay with my aunt and uncle while I wait to see if I get into university. They have fast internet, I believe. It's unreasonable to ask you to wait that long, but if you happen to do so anyway, I may be able to make it.

Phylum 04-18-2012 06:54 PM

I'd be happy to wait, seeing as we all but ignored your request to do it before you left.

dripik 04-19-2012 12:33 AM

True. Personally, I wouldn't mind waiting for a couple more weeks - I'm in the final stage of finishing my thesis and then there's the stress of getting it printed and having it submitted. After that, I'll be happy to explore that stronghold with you guys.

Splat 04-19-2012 05:40 AM

Saturday, 19th of May for stronghold? Starting 8PM GMT BST? (I'm away all the week before that.)

(I have no idea what time that works out for you out-back down-under counter-clockwise people.)

Crashpunk 04-19-2012 06:56 AM

I may have an Exam then. I'm not 100% sure but i'll check.

DarkHoodness 04-19-2012 07:13 AM

I'll probably be away in Devon by then - You can go without me but you'll need to find someone else to film the event.

Splat 04-19-2012 07:19 AM

So much for that date, then.

DarkHoodness 04-23-2012 05:52 AM

Contraption I made to send a random pulse to a device purely for a visual effect. However the dark cave of redstone illuminating like this looks cool:

I was mining on the server a couple of days ago. Deep underground, afraid of breaking out into a monster-filled room or a lava flow every block because that's how my mine is going right now, and suddenly CRACKA-BOOOOM! Man, lightning is loud in this game! Even (especially?) when you're ten blocks away from bedrock!
It was very nearly brown-trousers time.


In other news, another attempt at a date for the stronghold raid:
Saturday 28th May.

Manco 04-23-2012 08:23 AM

Hey, that’s my birthday.

Havoc 04-23-2012 01:36 PM

Aren't we in the wrong thread for server discussion?

sheridanm962 04-23-2012 11:55 PM

Yes you are.

There's no 28th of May. I think you mean April.

I'd be more in favor of the day before or the day after. I have something on the next few Sunday mornings (your Sat nights).

No there is

There totally is

It's the fourth Monday of May. May has thirty one days.

sheridanm962 04-24-2012 04:23 AM

He must be thinking of Sherlocks way of time, buy our new books and don't settle for less you fucking pricks.

On a serious note I would say that Phylum may have struck a learning curve of time by now, we all in honesty fuck up at times... In my opinion I don't really keep track of time and would like to keep it that way because life can and will end at one time, it's best if we don't see it coming than to go crazy thinking about it until that day.

There's no [Saturday] 28th of May.

People are making far too big a deal of this.

Wings of Fire 04-24-2012 10:44 AM

I'm tired and I have an exam tomorrow

=(

Wil 04-24-2012 11:31 AM

I didn't spot that either and I'm the most astute person ever like omg.

Phylum 04-24-2012 02:22 PM

Oops.

Thanks, Big Al.

Splat 04-24-2012 02:28 PM

Sorry, stupid gadget calendar didn't change the date and I didn't notice (had a job interview today and I've been stressed).

Saturday the 26th of May?

EDIT: Looks like that's bad, too. Continuing discussion in the Server Thread.

DarkHoodness 04-29-2012 08:02 PM

The You are Minecraft project has been extended to May 19th.

Tonight/this morning I've added my mark by re-creating a poor iteration of Blackgaze's slig skin (barely any green wool colours, melons don't look good). While it's not the skin I use, it does represent what I'm mostly known for doing in Minecraft.

(The idiot responsible for the TNT stack at the side watched me for a bit and floated around after me. Fortunately, explosions are turned off.)

Crashpunk 04-29-2012 11:16 PM

New Pre-release. You can now write in books :D



:

12w17a April 26, 2012
Official changelog is somewhat non-descriptive (One of the items is "Censored").
Editable Books - Book and Quill, crafted using a Book, Feather, and Ink Sac.
When a Book and Quill is made, it can be right-clicked to open a screen that allows you to type the book.
Pressing "Done" will save whatever was typed and allow you to edit the book again later, yet will not "sign" it.
When "signing" a book, it will allow you to choose a title up to 16 characters long and disable editing of the book. The Book and Quill then becomes a Written Book, with the icon changing along with the label.
Wooden slabs for each of the four shades of wood added
These new slabs no longer act like stone
An axe should be used to break them
They are no longer immune to fire and lava
New block IDs 125 for double wooden slabs and 126 for single wooden slabs.
Wooden slabs created in older versions of Minecraft are still stone-like and fireproof and will not change to the new slabs when placed or mined.
Leather is now required to craft Books.
Silk touch can now retrieve Ice blocks and Glass Panes.
Ice no longer turns into water in the Nether.
In the menu, Chat Options were added.
Added chat opacity, letting the chat be semi-transparent.
Added chat disabling, removing the chat for SMP servers.
Added chat colors option.
Added "Only Commands" mode to chat.
/help added.
Tools now have infinite durability in Creative mode.
Minecart and boats are destroyed in one hit in Creative mode.
Various Bugfixes, some regarding entity collision, the pick block function, and chat.
Livestock, such as chickens, can now be "walked through" instead of pushing the player around in crowded pens
Flying through water in Creative mode is no longer slow
You can no longer have a Bonus Chest in Hardcore mode.
Server Commands now appear in italics in SMP.
Saplings now have their proper names.
Notable bugs (Complete bug list):
All Wooden Slabs appear as the Oak slab when placed upside down. This is purely visual.
The Sound and the Music volume aren't displayed correctly.
Wooden Slabs spend light when placed before 12w17a.
Blocks like torches, rails or redstone destroyed by downwards flowing water don't drop items.

Wow DarkHoodness, awesome statue! :)

YouAreMinecraft now features me as well.

This update about books really intrigues me. Next step in my mind would be bookshelves being initially empty and serving as containers for books.

Crashpunk 05-03-2012 02:58 PM

Well i'm just glad that i've finished making my enchantment room on the server ages ago. :)

Still. it's a new use for Leather.

sheridanm962 05-03-2012 04:34 PM

I just found this video, it's a very simple computer but a big circuit.... Imagine trying to create a laptop.... I can't answer that unless I am talking to you in another world on another type of internet connection from a minecraft computer... That's just my fantasy of it but anyway here's the video:

Minecraft glitch! Villager with no head, arms, one leg and is the colour black O_o

Why's the floor in netherrack.He probably got raped by an angry creeper.

AlexFili 05-12-2012 04:47 AM

Now there's a Minecraft on the 360. Apparently it doesn't have sprint or hunger. Sounds a bit too basic.

Phylum 05-12-2012 05:11 AM

It's version 1.6 ported across, so it has the old lighting and anything else that was pre 1.8.

STM 05-12-2012 05:30 AM

I had such a nostalgia rush from the 1.7 Xbox version of minecraft I seriously considered downgrading my PC copy back to pre-1.8.

Crashpunk 05-12-2012 05:45 AM

Minecraft was better before 1.8. I hate the hunger bar so much.

STM 05-12-2012 05:51 AM

And Steve's 'ungh' noise when he falls, I miss that.

Crashpunk 05-12-2012 07:57 AM

Yeah...I found that to be quite a iconic sound from Minecraft :/

I wonder if there is a mod to change back the falling sounds? Oh and the explosion sounds as well.
