I really like how potions worked in that Potions mod. Hopefully Jeb doesn't change the system too much from that. Also, enchantments seem like a fun, neat way to do it. Like you're some guy who found a magical book, but has no idea how the fuck to use it.
Treefingers said:Just wanted to make sure more people know this, but passive mobs no longer spawn only on grass (since 1.8). They can spawn on any solid block now, but they spawn on the highest one (ie. one that can see the sky). So to truly prevent mobs from spawning in there you would have to put a roof over the whole thing
welp, fuck that. hm

Wow that is really crappy, man. I must have gotten really lucky in my 1.8 world when I updated to 1.9 to generate new chunks. I checked 3 of the 4 sides of the square that I let myself explore and they all went right over to new terrain without any of the crazy cliffs or anything. 3/4 was good enough for me, so I didn't check the 4th side.bengraven said:

That is the coolest thing I have ever seen in the history of anything ever, and ever. Does this mean that Commander Keen takes place in the same universe? I think so.

That's not true at all, once you buy the game all updates are free. ( I bought the game in the beta stage)

The Word of Notch said:Minecraft Beta: December 20, 2010
The next epoch is upon us! The skies are trembling, pigs are growing wings, and the nether is turning awfully cold, as Minecraft slowly crawls out of Alpha..
Minecraft will reach Beta status on December 20th, 2010.
With Beta comes a larger focus on polish and content, and well start early on with adding proper modding support with a stable API, and wed love all input we can get on this from the modders out there. Well also add some kind of non-intrusive narrative to the game to help drive the game experience early on, and to provide some kind of late game goal. There will be a bigger focus on testing and stability as well, with more time between updates.
When the game enters beta, the price will rise to 14.95 Euro.
We will also change the license to remove the line that promises all future versions of the game for free. Please note that this change only affects people who buy the game after December 20, so if you got the game for during alpha, you will still get all future updates for free, despite this change. A promise is a promise.
Buying the game during beta will include all updates up until release, of course, and bug patches will be free.
Soon, you will be able to buy gift codes for Minecraft, perfectly timed for the holidays! Even better, if you buy those before December 20, accounts created from these codes will count as alpha accounts, and will receive all future updates for free.
And the next game update (with server-side inventory) is coming next week, before Beta
Merry holidays happy!

Hahahaha, that's priceless. Notch shouldn't be playing so close to the fire. Although, I doubt anyone will care. It's not like they are making any money off Keen.

So is anying happening to the cartograph?
It doesn't seem to have been updated for about a week and it would be interesting to get a full look at all the new stuff that's been built.

I've decided to make a copy of my main world from over the last year (in which I invested hundreds of hundreds of hours), and use MCEdit to replace all water and flowing water with lava, and in the Nether all lava and flowing lava with water, just to see what its like.
Even with my sufficiently advanced CPU, its certainly taking its time to do.

Ha just replacing all the water with lava on my world took thirty minutes of the MCEdit process being non-responsive and consuming gigabytes of RAM. Now its taking (an expected) one hour twenty minutes to save the file. That's with an i7.

Nope. Its an i7 950 3.06 with 4GB of DDR3. I've never found any process that required overclocking, at least until now.Billychu said:
That's the next step. Am saving the main world first, then I'll go into the Nether on MC Edit and do the same. Given how much lava is there, its going to take a loooooong time.EskimoJoe said:
I'll post pictures though!

Make that a looooooooong time to save.
It's jumped down to zero days thirteen hours since I saved the picture though.
