Oh wow, the lid on the containers opens and closes. Nice touch.

Yeah, that threw me for a loop the first time I figured it out! I'm sure I read that they have a whole bunch of new sounds for the patch, including unique endermen sounds, new skeleton sounds (supposed to be more terrifying?), boat sounds, minecart sounds, and a few others that C148 got done. I also hope they give chests a different sound than doors. Don't know if they are for 1.8 or 1.9 though.

Yeah I just picked up a couple of Ender Pearls and didn't have a clue what they were, so I looked them up in the wiki ... then looked up the Endermen. Looks like this new update is gonna be fun :lol

I think they should make little quiet "tika tika" sounds like the aliens from the movie District 9, but when they see you and start shaking they should wail and scream like mad banshees until they either kill you or you kill them.

I've seen quite a few deep down in abandoned mines and ravines. I like to just watch them out of the corner of my eye but let them go about their block moving business. So far I've found single endermen underground but up on the surface they always seem to be in groups. I watched a bunch of them working during a daytime thunderstorm under a large overhang. One of them wandered out too far and was killed by the rainfall. Another took a log out of a tree leaving a gap in the trunk, lol. I've been out wandering the land in my new single player world and a few times I've come across a weird looking hillside or area that had blocks missing, and wondered if endermen had messed it up that way. They definitely leave signs of their presence.

I've only ever seen Endermen by themselves, never in groups. That being said, I've only ever seen three of them. I'm playing in a rather mountainous area though so maybe they're less inclined to spawn all over the side of the cliffs.
As a matter of fact I had one pop up in one of my screenshots I posted earlier. He was getting in the way so I eventually killed him though.
I like to think he and his brothers built that huge hole in the mountain-side.

It's the same way for me, Houston. I've seen like 3 total and they were all alone.
In fact, in my grassy/plains area, I can look across the entire landscape and not see any mobs at all. This is because there are so many naturally occurring "holes" that all the mobs fall into them. I will have like 10 sheep in one hole, or 12 cows in another. I bet the endermen are spawning and falling into holes like that.

So I decided to install 1.8 on this family computer I found.
Spawns were all boring for about 10 times, then spawned on the side of a massive mountain. Climbed as high as I could, looking for villages and saw that there was a little cavern at the foot of the mount and there was a river going all the way around in a way that with minimal effort (or if this was my PC and I had the time) could be a moat.
I went down into this little cavern and noticed that the floor was missing. It was a sheer drop down into the depths. I lit a torch on the side of the chasm (love the new lighting) and I see nothing.
Then as I'm scanning, my cursor moves over a pair of green eyes.
I run away and for a few seconds I'm thinking "man, you let the hype SCARE you! hahah---"
and the Ender appeared, carrying a dirt block and making zombie moans. Luckily I was backing into the moat and between my punches, the water, and the sun he died quickly.
*sigh* I want to get home soon to start my real game.

It's still a WIP but this is my "ruined tower" so far. It sits in the middle of a huge forest that is half regular, half swamp. I'm still waiting for a lot of the vines to grow, especially on the tree at the top of the tower, but I'm bored so here are some screens.
The vines even grow on chests.
This is actually a little less than half of the surrounding forest. It's huge! When you're walking on the ground, all you can see are the trees, and every now and then you get a glimpse of the tower in the distance.

Every time I see your avatar it makes me think of Dwight cutting the face off the CPR dummy and wearing it. I get a small chuckle every post. Thank you.CharmingCharlie said:

I haven't been keeping up, but is 1.8 "officially" out now?

Did they change they way you place blocks? I used to be able to hold down right mouse button and run backwards to plant a long line of blocks. Now it plants one and I have to keep clicking to place more.

It repeats fine when a block is in front of you, but not a Mob. Not animals, not enemies.Blizzard said:
Yes, it is. It makes combat almost impossible when I need to run away and fight at the same time.Ranger X said:
If it is, I will fly over to Sweden and confront Jens and Marcus about this stupid "feature" myself. Either that or enough people will cry about it to make them change it back. There's no reason to change this functionality.Qwomo said:
On a lighter note, lololol, I just noticed that the torches flicker! Holy shit that's awesome. I was just thinking a few days ago about the new torch lighting and how cool it would be if they did. Now I've finally gone into a cave and started doing some actual mining and noticed it very subtle. Makes me have hope about possibly having torch light follow you around in real-time. I want to be able to carry a glowing block/item with me when under water and have it light the way so I can actually see under water.
Edit: Hey, Houston. Why didn't you use Glass Panes for the windows? They look so much better.

Ah, very cool... inset windows and I walled in part of my balcony with them, it's like a little solarium overlooking the ocean.Jasoco said:

Ah thanks.
I'm not a fan of that, I made a macro on my keyboard for mining, I just made a similar one for the right click button now. Clicking for each block when you are building something made out of thousands of blocks is too much for me.
Okay Server is up and has been stable all night
Also I updated my hacked up texture pack if any of you would like to give it a try!
Texture Pack Get!
It is a mix of GeroDoko and Johnsmith with alot of tweaks and my own textures.
Also to use the texture pack you need to patch your Minecraft jar file with

You know, oddly enough, this doesn't bother me one bit. I have no problem at all clicking for each sword swing or for each block placement. And I'm a little confused as to why it's such a bit deal? I mean is it really so hard to click the button a few times other than to just hold it down? I'm just not getting the angst over this...?
