You're stuck with stone as material tho - hopefully they'll implement other block types later on.
Thanks! But oooh I need to get to the dungeon. That will be quite some time later.
Someone needs to get on the MP serversI hate getting on and no one is there, so I just go back to my own lol.
Just tried logging on, and couldn't connect. Weird thing was that if I try to connect using the IP address, it actually tries to connect, but never does, but if I use the dyndns address, it won't even let me hit "accept" when I'm on the port number.
neogafterraria.dyndns.org Port 7777 (for easy mode) or 8888 (hard mode)
If that doesn't work, idk lol.

send me a PM for Gaf server password please =D
I believe I sent a pm a couple of days ago.
Ahhhh, that explains it. The information in the OP (well, the cluster of OPs) is wrong/out of date.
Apparently I need a password, though... so it's not happening yet

There, pm'd u the password
Doh, your message said "Thanks", so I kinda assumed I already gave you the password.
Sent you a PM w/ the password.
Oh, if you guys do give out the password, please let me know to whom. I'd like to keep track of who gave what and who has the password.

Ok, I gave it to Vlad and CLoudius, no one else.

Update is live.
Guess you need to make a new world for the new biome.

Looks like all mobs drop "Presents" randomly, had a bunch of yellows from normal mobs and some green ones from a boss. Both had candy cane walls inside, though I would expect it's all random.
No snowmen yet either. I started a small world so it would be easier to find the snow biome, maybe it's too small for them to spawn.
Edit: Sounds like the snowglobe item is used to spawn snowmen invasions, that's all.

For those people who don't want to create a new world there's a great little program out there called TEdit, it's a map editor for Terraria. You can select sections of your map (by drawing a box around stuff) and save that section as a "schematic". Then create a new map in the game, open it in TEdit, and paste in your building/buildings. There's also a bunch of checkboxes you can mark off so you don't have to rekill the normal mode bosses and so you can put it closer to a Goblin Invasion. If you have a really big building than you might have to clean up a little section to place it but the map editor has simple tools to draw/erase blocks.
My base in my SP world right now is literally composed of buildings I built when I created my little town in version 1.0.3. I even created the Hellevator in TEdit (just box selected and deleted a tunnel straight to hell, drawing in obsidian/dirt to block in the lava and water). You'll have to kill Wall of Flesh again and run around and smash some altars to populate the new world with ore but that's extraordinarily simple if you've already done it before.
All that being said, I'm not sure if it's updated for the new version yet. It was updated very soon after 1.1 released though.

Good because I generated some worlds and not only are the snow biomes tiny, but everything in general is too small and scattered around. There should only be one of each biome so there is plenty of space to run around in them and think "this is really a different environment" not just like 50ft of random desert then a short bit of corruption before a jungle and whatnot. Doesn't make any sense.
Even the version of TEdit for 1.1 had some bugs (any torches touching new brick types were deleted, for one), but it was just a released beta version anyways (the developer was waiting for 1.1.1 to finalize things).
Here's hoping you can copy and paste the biome in. I'm considering either an iceberg on the beach or picking the highest point in my map and making it a proper snow-capped mountain.
I haven't gotten a snow globe yet. Anyone else?
I guess Santa doesn't stick around after the holidays. Should be fun having seasonal NPCs.

Lol, first world I made, my spawn point is the snow. Pretty legit. Just waiting for dark so I can kill Skeletron again, just to make myself feel awesome. Then we'll see what's on the other side of the map.
EDIT: ok so, I never knew what schematics were for Houston. Thanks for clarifying lol. Too bad I already mined 1000 snow blocks....

Booted the game up for 10 minutes before work. Found my snow biome about half-way left of the spawn and right in/amongst the jungle. It's pretty tiny and nearly completely underwater, so I'll probably regen another world before settling in to this one and building a new base for my fresh character.
Looks like another great update though, content just keeps coming, which has been amazing.

Eeeeeeee!
So, I got a *ton* of Candy Cane walls before I finally got a snow globe. It only took me another dozen or so presents to get a second one (I have to have one for my OCD collection, of course). Snowman Mafia was fun, I died a bunch but I wasn't trying really hard.
I love the Christmas lights, I hope they can be wired (I haven't messed with them much at all) to twinkle on and off in sequence. Snow Bricks / Walls are neat, as is snow itself... Pearlstone bricks/sand already kind of fill that role but snow isn't affected by gravity and the snow wall is actually really nice and subtle. I'm looking forward to using it in various places.
Snow-covered trees are awesome, just wish the snow biome would change regular trees to snow ones. I guess I'll just have to copy and paste them into my world with T-edit. I'm definitely doing a mountain, though an Iceberg in one of the oceans seems like a good fit for the GAF server.
Edit: Wish there was a Christmas Tree item you could place indoors. Maybe next year.

OH MY GOD THAT'S WHAT AUTO SELECT DOES?!?! THIS CHANGES THINGS
just tried it--I don't even need to put my pick and torches in the hotbar anymore! Christ why didn't I find out about this sooner
For the meantime, the server maps will stay as they are, until I can get confirmation I can cut and paste a snow biome into the maps.
Plus you can still see snow flakes coming down in your current world. It's pretty.
New TEdit is out: https://github.com/BinaryConstruct/Terraria-Map-Editor/downloads
It's the first link with only like 200 downloads. That's the link the dude posted on TerrariaOnline forums.

lol I had the same reaction when I realized what it was. It makes me realize how fucking tedious the game was before it was an option.

Haven't tried, but I assume its about the same conditions as having meteor heads pop up? In other words, you need "x amount" of snow blocks in order for that area to spawn the snowmen.
Also, I generated a new personal world last night, and got to the snow biome. I didnt see any snowmen pop up... are they a hard mode enemy?

Yeah. Same here. Hope they're not just for hard mode.

I thought the snowmen only appear when you use the snow globe?
Yup, snowmen do not naturally appear on their own. The ONLY way to fight them is to summon them with a snow globe, which drops rarely from presents, which all enemies drop until the end of the year. It's our first season-exclusive content, hopefully the first of many.
Managed to grab an updated version of the beta mods.
Okay, the normal world server is currently up, I'm working on the hard mode world, hopefully be up later today. If you've been on the world before, you'll notice I managed to import a nice chunk of snow biome (go right, from the NPC town).
Also, those who had logged in before and were racking up points, due to certain exploits, I had to change the ranking requirements. Some of you will notice that you've gone down in rank. Please be aware that you did not lose points (total points earned, not what you're carrying). I basically refunded your ranks, then ranked up your characters with the refunded points, based on the new rank requirements.

I think we need a new hardmode world, the last one is really messy. Maybe with a prebuilt hellshaft to make killing Woffy easier
We'll be able to get presents all-year round, but after dec. 31st, only mobs in the snow biome will drop them.

I dont mind making a new map for the Hard Mode server, the only reason why we're using the "chaos" map (w/c was used during the period when some idiot posted server info on that website), is because its already in "Hard Mode".
If you guys would prefer to have a totally fresh world, that you can convert to Hard Mode at any time, I'm willing to scrap the current Hard Mode map and make a new one.
