I don't know anything about this specific issue, but a good this to do would be to check if Java is up to date. Another way to change the vide settings (while not in-game) is to edit the settings in the file directory. In Windows it's a text file that can be found in 'Documents and Settings/(your username)/Application Data/.minecraft/options'-Yeti said:

By the way, I'm now gradually updating the paths on the server by putting rows of glass directly over the gravel, 3 blocks above. The purpose if this is to allow a faster method of traversal (I estimate between 1.5 and 2.0 times faster than just sprinting). Basically you need to sprint and jump at that same time while under the glass, or any other solid block for that matter, to get a big boost in movement speed.

Got it to work. I forgot that I was still on that 'leaked' 1.8 update which made it so you couldn't change the video settings.
Also found out about OptiFine while researching ways to make Minecraft run faster. Works like a charm!

Glad you like the domed city, I was a bit worried about revealing it. I am still a bit of a noob when it comes to minecraft and could never hope to produce some of the stuff you guys did on the previous map.
I do like the idea of several coloured domes for living spaces that never occurred to me. Originally I was just going to have one super massive living space dome (200 x 200) but now it makes much more sense to have a couple of 100 x 100 domes.
Complex Shadow said:
Unfortunately the height limit of the server (currently 128 blocks) makes it difficult to go any higher. The pedestal of the main dome goes up to 100 blocks high (from bedrock) and the dome on top of it is about 25 blocks high.
I did toy with floating domes but I have always had a thing for these mushroom domes that I saw when I was a kid :-
There is also a bonus that the pedestal can be used for store rooms. I would've loved to built the domes with iron but at something like 9 bars of iron just for 1 iron block it would have taken forever to mine enough iron just for one pedestal.

What? Glass? How does that work?OgTheClever said:
Ok guys digging has commenced.Xun said:Alright guys, I'm going to start digging the hole for my castle later on today.
If people are still up for helping the spot can be found below. You'll notice a large dirt tower signifying where the central point is. However I want to make sure this place is good to go first before I properly start.
I'll first get rid of a few trees in the area to give me space, then begin to plot out the area.
There is one tall block tall tower in the centre, and 4 towers surrounding it in a square.

Now that I have citizen mode, I am now going exploring to find a spot. Looking at the map, it seems snow has yet to be found on gafland, and that's what I'm looking for. I'm heading Northeast, with nothing but a bed and a sword.

I think Snow Biomes aren't working with the current version of mincraft (correct me if I am wrong). Also don't go too far or you'll blow up the map size to something ridiculous.

It doesn't have to be glass, I've only been using that because you can see through it. Here's a video which demonstrated the concept, although I haven't used ice like they have, but it's still pretty fast normally.Houston3000 said:

Thought the whole system was because of sliding on the ice.OgTheClever said:

Will Neocraft be restarted when 1.9 comes out? Or can you update servers without full restarts now?

Well, still going to explore a bit, but I won't go way off map. Just find a nice place, and hope no one else has mined it to no end

Nope, ice just doubles the speed again probably. Test it out yourself to see.Houston3000 said:

Jesus, why the hell does he have so many booster tracks? That's a shitload of gold. I use 4 booster tracks to reach 16 m/s.OgTheClever said:

Og, you might not go so far out of your way to do this. In the "upcoming changes" section of the wiki:
"There is a slight delay between jumps when holding down the jump button, so that the player no longer bounces between ceiling and floor in two-block-high spaces."
So I finally ventured outside the Pioneer-Ark Town Dualopolis area today, and I found this:
Anyone have good ideas on what to do with a floating island?
Also, if anyone has an updated map, I would really appreciate it if it were posted, I need to regain my bearings from my new position.

We could wait until after Skyward Sword comes out, and try to recreate Sky Loft on that floating island.
This is a fantastic mod.

The Kenshiro Mod.
As long as you are shirtless (i.e. no chest armor) and empty-handed, and have at least 3 1/2 bars on the food meter to spare, you can unleash the Hokuto Hyakuretsu Ken. One-hit kill on any mob (complete with a delayed "you are already dead" effect), and breaks through pretty much any block short of obsidian, bedrock, and a few others.

Once I work on the interior a bit, I'll post some new screenshots
I'm surprised you used glass blocks instead of the new panes for the windows. I love the panes, I think they look better and you get so many of them per sand (6 glass blocks = 16 panes). I've been using them everywhere I can. I like how you are using brick. One nice change in 1.8 is that clay seems to be so much more plentiful. I've barely strayed much outside of Pioneer Town and Arktown yet I've got like 5 full stacks of clay balls.
Also, found my first diamond on the new Neocraft server last night! I haven't really started a deep mining operation of any kind yet, but I found two veins while spelunking a cave / ravine system last night. Then I went to put them away and realized that I had brought half a stack of diamonds over on the Ark, LOL! I've been so focused on building and sand mining that I totally forgot about them. Plus with iron so plentiful now I haven't really missed them. Time to make a bunch of diamond tools and use those gems up, they aren't doing me any good stashed in a chest...

Ah, you must be Ziefer then! There are two more ravines near us? Man, Ravines are everywhere! I've been mining sandstone for the past few nights a few clicks west of my fortress and stumbled upon a multiple ravine system over there, it's a crazy huge network. I do have some plans for that one right beneath me, but if there are others nearby then I think we should definitely connect them. Hell, I think we should connect all discovered ravines into one huge Minecart Ravine Tour Railway designed for sightseeing. That would be cool, lol.
Are the other two over your way under you castle?
Yeah that's me I've been terribly inconsistent with names lately. They are south of the first one. I dug from yours into another then checked into it on the Tectonicus map and saw a 3rd. It would be an impressive room with 3 ravines coming into it. I can't tell how big the space is between them though.
I find it funny that of all the places surrounding me there is massive cave networks everywhere, but right where I built. I didn't try to do that just happened.

As a few of you know, I was flaunting a secret build on NeoCraft, well...
A secret is revealed: THE MEGA HARVESTER
So far I have: three tiers of 200 wheat, melon (and pumpkins come 1.9!) farm, and a sugar cane area.
Melon Harvester in action! Come to think of it, I might just change the switches to buttons
My goal is to make everything piston powered for ease of harvesting.
Things I'm adding in the future: Shrooms, Vines, Cacti, Trees, Animals, whatever else Mojang adds, & Netherwart if possible.
