I would like to play a survival light mode where enemies spawn at night, creepers burn up in daylight, and enemies don't spawn in caves (they can just stay in the entrance). Making arrows easier to craft would also be nice.

I suggested this at GetSatisfaction. (The official site for MineCraft suggestions/bug reports.)ChoklitReign said:

Go there and voice your approval. Easy should just be one step up from peaceful. An easy mode where you aren't bothered a lot, except at night. No enemies in caves too. And Creepers should be a little less likely to spawn. Maybe make them rarer, but still there. But only one per night instead of 5 or 6 waiting outside your door when day breaks. Also, maybe make them benign when the sun comes up unless you attack them. And they'd follow you around creeping up watching what you're doing waiting for nightfall. THAT would be cool. And would be a mode I'd play on. I want an incentive to live in my structures, but I don't want to be killed while trying to find the materials to build them IN THE DAYTIME. It would give me a reason to keep my watch with me.
See, I want to play casually, but I don't want it to be wasted. So I'd like a little challenge, but right now, the lowest difficulty is too hard as it is. Maybe when mod support comes out, someone can make a "Better Easy" mode that gimps the spawning and makes a better easy mode.
Yeah. But at least it would be supported instead of hacked into the current code. So it'd be less likely to break. But I'm sure it will, but the mods will probably be updated in a timely manner like texture packs are now. It'd just be official and most likely drag-and-drop with a "plug-ins" folder like the texture folder we have now.Twig said:
In an ideal world, sure. But often, even games with official mod support aren't as clean and easy as you'd like. We'll see just how well it works once it's done.Jasoco said:
Not that I'd be disappointed, mind you. Any official support is better than no official support! (Unless "official support" means "official anti-support" because they limit the mod capabilities so much that you really can't do much.)
(edited for clarification cause what i said made no sense)
I searched a ton earlier but no dice. Part of me thinks its shopped or somethin. Like there seems to be a lot more glow than even with AO.
Edit it is tronic

Either theres a glow mod or that shot is shopped.

with HD mod, Better Light Mod and the GLSL Shader mod here
Turned out pretty cool. I can see the shader stuff getting annoying sometimes though.

Has the SP game gotten more dangerous or what?
I'm on a long trip far from my main base to try and find enough diamond, coal & iron so that I can finally start to build something epic without having to continuously mine. I found a huge cave that I think might go to the bedrock, set up an underground base thats ALWAYS getting swarmed by mobs even when I think it's safe. I went through about 5 hams underground in about 3 nights and had to resurface.
I built a little lookout tower to camp through the night in order to restock on ham in the morning, I'm looking around at night after I finished building, and counted 21 hostile mobs, including groups of 4 skeletons, 2 groups of spiders, and zombies all over the place.
If the cave I found wasn't so awesome I'd call this trip off and head back to the main base, I honestly don't think I can survive :lol, and if I die I'll lose all of my stuff.
Anyone else noticing a difficulty jump?

I think this year I've spent more time watching videos of people play minecraft more than I've actually played minecraft.
I feel that... I'm kind of done with the game so far. It's mostly lack of personal motivation, but I have no real desire to start a new building project. I've dicked around in some custom maps (survival island, escapecraft, etc) and they're cool. But as an actual game, I think I've worn myself out.
Now, this isn't me saying I'm never playing it again. Shit I'll probably log another 15 hours before the month is up. But I'm at the point where no amount of restarting or building grand things can captivate me as much as it once did.
Hrm... maybe if I build my own escapecraft level. :O

It appears my router is on it's last leg. It's an old workhouse WRT54g with DDWRT installed, and has been great up until now but over the last month has been dropping the connection as much as once a day. Now this is something I can live with for my own uses, but isn't ideal for a server. Since i'm not in the position to buy a new router, now is probably the time to talk about offsite hosting.

This might actually deserve its own thread in the gaming section but...
