I could make one. It would get me alot of cobble which I need to stockpile anyway. Maybe I'll start a grinder this afternoon. I'll build most of it underground so we don't have a huge square skyscraper outside of Pioneer town.

I was helping doombass work on a grinder earlier out in the desert. He's planning to build it all the way up to the skybox.

As promised, screenshots of my Lava-Water reversal project. I used MCEdit on a copy of my vast world to swap water and lava. All still and flowing water in the overworld became lava, and all still and flowing lava in the Nether became water. It took quite a while for MCEdit to complete the swap, but the results are interesting and well worth it.
The Overworld
The overworld in an ice biome. I forgot to transform the ice above the water, meaning that a MASSIVE chain reaction was taking place when I got there
The Nether. Note that all the Pigmen felt compelled to leap into the water for a swim and seemed to be enjoying themselves immensely.
Old and new chunks meet in The Nether. Note that the wall of obsidian only forms when you disrupt the area, instantly spreading across the landscape

Yes. Just select the entire area, select "Fill and replace", select the material you want replacing, and select the material you want to replace it with, and hit REPLACE.
Depending on the size of the area you may be waiting a couple of minutes. Then you'll see it complete, then save the map.
On the server I run, this came in very useful when dealing with a fire spreading across massive forests. I just replaced all instances of "fire blocks" with "ice blocks", causing some unique ice forests that had my players in awe.
That's not what I meant - the nature of how we tried to install it the first time was that it was done with wool on top to simulate a neat looking hot tub. Then the wool caught on fire even though the lit fire beneath the hot tub (for smoke simulating effects) was covered by water.Ark said:Or you know, you could have just mined & placed the obsidian

Sounds crazy. But the effect is nice.

This was posted earlier on Twitter by Jeb, didn't see it on here.
In the prerelease, there are 161 brewable unique potions. Unless we change it, there will be 2,653 with all ingredients added.

That's a lot!

The wiki has already found the basic "clean" potions that don't require a lot of work: http://bit.ly/nh8Uui

Man, just looking around the Neocraft dropbox map of the server, and I can already see that people have spread around quite a bit and there are a few large projects underway. I'm tempted to start my next big project, but I'm still a bit afraid of the impact of 1.9 on Neocraft. I would hate to start it and then have to lose all of that work. I may just collect materials until 1.9 gets released.
On another note, ravines and abandoned mines are the two best things to hit Minecraft since colored wools. Maybe even since biomes. I found a really huge underground ravine last night, spent all night just exploring it. It went from Y=52 down to Y=12, the lava layer. 40 blocks deep, and I tunneled into the ceiling from above! Several waterfalls poured into the lava lakes at the bottom creating a beautiful effect. There is no feeling more awesome in this game than peering down into a huge underground abyss that is completely dark except for the glow of the lava lakes at it's bottom.

I have yet to find a single diamond on Neocraft 1.8. I've been spending all of my time underground exploring ravines, mines, digging tunnels, but have yet to see even one diamond. I guess I'm just having really bad luck, LOL!

Don't feel bad, Billy. I have never made a single thing decent thing on NeoCraft. My little Japanese garden was decent and I think one person said it was kind of "natural looking and nice" but other than that, I have never gotten a compliment.
I'm not saying this because I feel bad about it, or I feel the community hates me (lol), I'm saying this because I acknowledge that I don't really make impressive, original stuff and I think what I make is pretty boring and standard to others as well.
I just like to make things that feel "homey" and I'm done. And I'm happy!

Quick note; please try and stick to the currently explored areas of NeoCraft (use the map for reference). We've already seen someone in this thread post their 1.8 to 1.9 world transition and it was basically the same that we had before on our old map.
Also; still can't get this fucking MCEdit to work. I'm determined to do this.

Just wondering, do you guys run a standard Minecraft server for Neocraft? If so, have you considered switching to Bukkit? In this case, you could use Voxelsniper - a far greater, and in some ways more powerful version of MCEdit, which you can actually use in-game.
Yeah, that's a slick looking dam. Adorable too. Makes me wish the game would generate natural waterfalls instead of just water blocks that run down. I mean fairly deep bodies of water at higher elevations than the ocean but near an ocean or river so we can connect them and make actual dams and waterfalls.
Unfortunately, it would once again require a world restart.

With MCEdit? Yes
To be fair, I did actually install VoxelSniper, but I never figured out how to use the damn thing. It would just never work.In super-awesome good news, I finally worked out how to use the FTP to the server .... turns out I had the wrong FTP client (LOL, I'm so good at this). So the Nether is now reset, and will be reset again come 1.9 (for obvious reasons). This also means I can upload more mods, should we desire

I'm not fond of infinite water sources. I think it should be that a body of water over a certain amount, say 20 or more blocks, can produce an infinite source. That way, making a waterfall would require a little more planning than placing a block.
