I don't have a "Leave bed" option. Is that a multiplayer thing?
Barberetti said:
Hmm... I guess it is.
And here I thought I had some helpful information. Well, that's how you can do it in multiplayer, anyway...
Edit: yeah, that seems to be the problem... The only way to change your spawn point is by leaving the bed before you sleep, which is impossible to do on singleplayer. Well, I'm sure this one will be taken care of soon.

lol oh well, I guess I'll be playing v1.4_01 pretty soon then.
lemon__fresh said:Exano needs to update
Not happening until the necessary plugins have updated to support 1.4. As Atomski said earlier in the thread, it wont be happening for at least a couple of days, if not longer.
If you want to play on Exano's GAFLand, please rollback your client to 1.3.
Please note that the server administration cannot guarantee compatibility or stability if you attempt to connect to the server with a spoofed client.

Wow. Start a new world and put this word in as your seed:
Chegotena
Amazing. I imagine some poor bastard started his first game in this spawn point.

Yeah lol. No idea how that even manages to happen.

Pretty awesome seed.
Took me quite a while to find him. I wandered far from my spawn, started building a second home, and then about a week later in-game time I was out chopping wood and found him wandering alone near my stairs.
FWIW my spawn is in a snow biome, but the area I'm at now seems like a rainforest type area with deserts nearby. I think wolves are just really rare, and not biome-dependant.
Also, I saw brown and pink sheep.
Found a pack of wolves in that other world we just tried. But now I need to find one in my current world. So just to be sure, once you tame them, they will stay. Right? Also, do they follow you? And if you go into a portal, will they come with you or will they stay outside the exit, or will they respawn at home as if to say they just go home and wait for you?

My pack grows
Had a couple nights in a row that 3-4 wolves spawned real close to my base in the biome in the picture.

From what I understand, wolves won't go into the Nether, but will wait for you to return. They won't move if you tell them to sit. If they're not sitting and you wander too far, they'll warp to you (I think, haven't tested) so I'm not sure if they'll warp from the Nether gate you entered to another you came out of.
And they're supposed to stay with you. I'm guessing they can and will die from fall damage though, so feed them regularly.
And just to reassure anyone else who's trying, I've now found three on peaceful. You will need at least two bones to tame each one though, pork won't tame them. I was fortunate enough to have a skeleton spawner near my spawn so I build a small grinder there.
EDIT: One last tip: If you're having trouble getting your new puppy to come inside because of the goofy pathing, make him sit and push him through the door.

Good to know. Funny. I had only gotten one bone from killing a skeleton in that dungeon spawn then wandered a long way to find them. So I didn't get to tame one. Hopefully I won't have any problems finding some in my regular world.BooJoh said:
It will be neat if they're like Epona where if you are far away, they reappear off in the distance and run to you instead of just appearing near you. Even neater if you could craft a dog whistle that would A) make your pack run to you even if they're doing something else and B) attract any nearby wolves in the area if they exist. (It wouldn't make them spawn, as that would make it too easy, just make ones that happened to spawn make themselves known.)
It'd either require two or three iron or gold bars in a vertical row. Or something. I dunno. Let Mojang figure that one out.

It's unlimited right now. But Notch will probably add a limit in the future.
Painterly Pack was updated faster than I expected. There's only a couple wolf textures though. I like the Corgies so far. The others are Wolfdog, Ninjadog and Corgie with sunglasses. DEAL. WITH. IT. The glasses were funny, but I opted for the ones without them.
Would like to see collies.
Found three of them not far from home. But only two wanted to domesticate. One after 2 bones. One after 3. The third refused to domesticate and ate so many bones. So I left him behind. These two are mine now. The problem is it seems when you get only a few meters from them they respawn right next to you. And as I was walking south back home, one of them kept appearing right in front of me as I was walking. The other was lagging behind but keeping up. I dunno.
Problem is I wish I could tell how much health they had. Also, I never know what button to click with what item. I accidentally hit one twice. I feel bad.
Really? Neat!parasight said:
Now I wish they would make mobs smart enough to walk into a fire. I have to put glass covers over all my open decorative fires now because I had both of them walk into a fire.
Also, make it so they don't blindly walk off cliffs if the owner is still up on their level. I'm going to have to put railings in my pyramid too.
God, it's like taking care of a baby. I have to dog-proof my Minecraft world!

Does that mean when big chunks of the world never appear and you can see through the land? I have been having that happen lately too if so.NotTarts said:
Also, how high does the tail get when the wolf's health is full? Is it at full when the tail is just a little bit higher than the body? I can't get it to go past that.

Yeah it's a pretty silly thing to let slip through. Hopefully they'll have it patched quickly. Oh well, I've got a minecart track linking my spawn point to my base, and it's about 1000 blocks long. I was going to dismantle it earlier because the new spawn point would have made it redundant. Glad I left it alone now lol.
Jasoco said:
Yeah I'm sticking to 1 for now, less hassle. Good luck keeping your 100 under control if you actually go for that many

Right, I went exploring for a bit and left my wolf at my base, which is built in the middle of the ocean. When I got to land, he hadn't warped to me so I shrugged and figured it was because I didn't command him to sit first. After a couple of in game days, and some fun with a semi-submerged dungeon in the desert containing a skeleton spawner, I got back to base and my wolf is nowhere to be found.
So, maybe he jumped into the ocean and drowned while trying to follow me? Going to command my next wolf to sit when I go exploring later, and see what happens.

Don't know if this was posted. Click here: http://tf2stats.net/hats/ Now sit and wait a few seconds.

Nice. Should have ended with a Ghast turning and spotting them before the fade-out though. Nothing happened with the other link.

Agreed.
Brown sheep for people who haven't seen one yet.
1.4 made me pick up Minecraft again for the first time in months. I don't really have a special or unique story. I was just surprised (again) at how the game manages to work its way into my psychology.
Was mining a diagonal staircase down. Broke my way into a cavern I was going to have to drop down into. Used shift to peak my way around, didn't see any bad guys. JUST as I was about to drop down into the cavern, suddenly a creeper out of nowhere.
I literally yelled "OH SHIT OH SHIT" and managed to save myself. Resident Evil didn't do that. Silent Hill didn't make me do that. Only Minecraft.
My wife was watching at the time and asked me why this blocky game gets me so nervous and worked up. I didn't really know what to say. I don't know why it's so scary. It just is. Maybe it's so scary because there is a very real chance to lose what you're carrying, whereas other horror games don't have true death penalties?

^ Yeah the fear factor that Minecraft caves produce is incredible.

Xun said:Do you have to make a new world to get the wolves? I'm unable to find any yet...
Nope they'll spawn in your old worlds as well. They're fairly rare though. Apparently they spawn in forest and taiga biomes.
Edit: I'm not sure how accurate the biome stuff is tbh, I have two tamed wolves that showed up around my house which isn't in a taiga or forest biome.

No pink ones yet.
Xun said:Do you have to make a new world to get the wolves? I'm unable to find any yet...
No, but at first it may be difficult to find them if you keep around your spawn/main base, but try going in a direction for a good while, I think the odds of wolves appearing are high when the game loads a new chunk. Yesterday I did that and I tamed 3 wolves of a pack of 4. They are now outside of my floating house.
This game has one of the best soundtracks I have heard in a long time. Some games will just constantly play the same song over and over, but the way the music in this game just starts playing every half hour or so really adds to the charm of it I think.
