Thanks for updating the map Toki1776 it was a nice surprise to wake up too and it is appreciated believe me. I have to admit even I am going "WTF" at Dome City and I built it :-
Just looking at that picture makes me want to build more .......... I really really really need psychiatric help.
I'm shocked we were able to build something that big so fast...And you're not crazy wanting to build another it's a fun experience.

I was about to ask.
Damn, still haven't updated. That sucks, I really want to play, but I don't want to downgrade.

So I just picked this up GAF. I'm really wanting to create a ton of structures.
I have a question though, is there a way to start a world that is just flat, making it easier to manage?

Any way to farm ender pearls? I'm thinking about making a structure very high, full of holes, and see in the endermen in there falls through the holes to the ground, getting fall damage. It would work?

Same, what's the latest on the server upgrade?

Yeah, starting to jones for a bit of Neocraft action myself... Need to finish my dragon skelly, not to mention my pitiful effort in CC's first dome. C'mon bukkit, sort yourselves out!
Also, a bit petty, but the new 'pop' sound the bow makes really spoils it for me. Is there a way to replace sounds?

Still waiting for the Bukkit team to release their recommended build for Vanilla 1.0.
Fall damage mob grinders are the only ones that will kill Endermen.
You need a drop of at least 45 blocks high. However, no mobs throws itself down from this high. You need to trick them by putting sign post everywhere on the sides of your spawning platforms. As for the platforms, it's better to go with 8x8 platforms. Putting holes everywhere would actually prevent many mobs to spawn.

Then... sticky pistons, maybe? Having a long surface of 9xsomething and make the middle line to be pits. Then, use pistons to repetidely push everyone in the middle pit?
That seemed to be the problem. I never launch the server with the .jar file. For whatever reason, I guess the .exe wasnt updated to 1.0.1 but the .jar was so I had to switch over.
Odd thing is now I get really slow terrain loading. It loads huge chunks at once and I look like Im floating when I first log on.

That's... damn awesome. Would love to explore that, assuming there's stuff inside the domes. And if MC wouldn't crash a minute after startup everytime.
Oh they definitely appear in caves. And they're more aggressive there too since they can't teleport they prefer to just run at you screaming like a banshee. Sooooo awesome.
There's a glitch in the game right now. When the floor is moving, mobs will pass through. This could be tactic to make a mob grinder. Problem is, I doubt they can spawn while the floor is moving. This would mean your mob grinder wouldn't be able to be completely automated.
Personally, I have 4 spawning modules of 8x8 blocks with canals all around them. Then I have 4 floors of those spawning modules. All the mobs are falling in those canal that eventually all lead to a huge pool where the water will gather all of them into one last canal that finally brings them into a drowning tube.

But I'm not interested in bones and sulfur. And endermen teleport if they touch the water, so I need a non-watered way to kill people.
Fall damage. Same spawning floor design but it's a hole where the canals would have been. Give 45 blocks for the spawning floor that is the closest to the ground. Put signs all around the spawning modules (on its sides of course). This way the Endermen (or any mob in fact) will fall to their death.
Yea, I kinda discovered that earlier today. >_< I just noped right out of there.
DangerousDave
Member
I think I don't get the idea.
Assuming a single floor. I make a 8x8 room (3 blocks height minimum), and I put holes in the corners and signs on the walls?
8x8 spawning floors like this:
Now here I made a tower but you can expand in any direction you'd like afterall. Oh and leave at least 3 blocks between floors because the Endermen are 3 blocks high...
DangerousDave

Nice, so the mobs walk to the blocks of the sign, because there is something in there, but then they fall down? Nice.
Is necessary to keep so many blocks of distance between the spawn zone and the walls?

Nah, just 2 blocks so the spiders can fall easier.
My tower is having 4 blocks free on 2 of its sides because at first I builded it for 2 spawning modules wide... and it seems they were too close and it gave me some design problems. Didn't feel like putting the whole thing down so it ended up like what you see there.
It's still down for me too actually, rather odd...Notch's Twitter doesn't even have anything about it.

Played this the ENTIRE weekend. At first I looked at this game and was like "wtf is this..."
Then I put some time into survival.
Game is amazing.

I played most the weekend too. The island I spawned on in my new 1.0 world has proven quite full of things to explore beneath it.
This is my island:
This is my farm so far:
There is a huge hole under the island, goes practically from the surface to the lava layer:
And the hole leads into a huge ravine that seems to run along under the length of the island:
This seed so far has been fun to explore and spelunk in. Although I've come to a startling revelation: there are no sheep on my island. None at all. Lots of pigs, cows, and chickens, but zero sheep. I guess I must travel to find wool...

Trying to download the newest MC patcher, but my anti-virus keeps saying it is a virus when I know it isn't (it's from the official forums) and it keeps deleting it every time I download it. Anyone know what to do? D: I wanna use my 512 x 512 texture.
YES!
Can't wait to get back on NeoCraft. Oh, Ark, are you going to delete the Nether? Hopefully we can generate a new one so that we can get all the awesome 1.0 stuff Mister_Bubbles

Yessss. Week off work + Neocraft 1.0 = Everythingwentbetterthanexpected.jpg
That is super cozy.. makes me want to play again!! I'll definitely try to spawn in a world with islands like that.

Can't wait to play on 1.0 Neocraft once we make the switch! Hope to see a lot more people the place has been kinda empty.

Thanks for the heads up! Wish I could get on, but I have two finals in the morning. :-/

Yup the server has been updated, seems the mods are there too. The chests still have locks and the Creepers don't do damage. On the downside my Bravo Megadome looks like complete arse now since there is such a difference between the swamp grass and normal grass.
Ah well I wonder if Prof CrazyLegzlu is up to moving it brick by brick somewhere else ?

dig it up and turn the roads into bridges, first dome to feature a lake!

Oh, cheap real estate?
CharmingCharlie

Yeah I am pretty depressed right now, think I might head off to Artistdudes harvester and throw myself in his water/lava moat. I knew I should've built this dome over at the "Charlie" sector instead of "Bravo".
Hm that is a viable idea, the only other idea I can come up with is to abandon it and rebuild it in another area.

Haha, I think I'd have to eat a bullet after that one. ;-)
Plus, once everyone builds what they are planning to you won't see that grass that much anymore.
