Minecraft

OR Someone could open a server and everyone could start to build and you get like 5 or so hours to build something epic and then judges come on and vote for their favorite!

The problem with that is that there are very few servers going about, that can handle the stress so to speak.
Probably better to do it on your own world, own work.

We should try one some time next weekend or so.
Ask Sporge or something.

YEAAAAH LAPTOP'S BACK MIIIIINNNEEECRRRRAAAAFFTT SPRREEEEE

Started a new world, spawned in a ****ing huge desert, so I plan on building an oasis town after I get enough iron for my freight depot.

 

[Vex L'Cour]

Ok updates time.

Made tons of new dwellings, including a huge winter home.
Updated my Painterly texture, now my wolves are creepers 8D
I also made a HUGE bridge of diamond which had watch towers, mine cart tracks and lead to castles.
and I am currently making a castle....OUT OF ICE! It's gunna have a Lightstone chandelier -gay squee-

EDIT://

I also made an amazing Temple which was on a mountain (only way to reach it was a huge stone staircase with jack'o'lanterns on the sides) the temple was made with only Clay, Wood and Lapis. Inside there was a raised platform which was inside a dome of light (Lightstone) and on the podium...

was cake.

Whaaatt
SO HOWS THE ACHIEVEMENTS!

 

[AndyB]

Got them all but the minecart one. Pretty nice way to bring new players into the game.

I tried to buy Minecraft once, I got a prepaid debit card put $20 in it, went home to buy it and found out that it cost $20.89 then that pissed me off. Meh don't really feel like buying it anymore, because I got Fortresscraft

If that's the case you may as well go play creative. You've just spent money on something that's out there for free already.

Fortresscraft is terrible. J/s.

 

[Vex L'Cour]

Making an underground settlement. It already has a tree and stuff. I'll screen print when I've got some more of the area done. I've only just got crops growing and my house done
Kinda hopin' people had some ideas for what I could have down there. It's near bedrock and I have Pigs/cows/ducks spawning non-stop. Shame no Slimes...

You just wasted money on a crappy ripoff... =D

 

[Vex L'Cour]

Just a quick list of the updates featured.

Weather: Rain and snow, Rain fills up water in small holes and doesn't occur in the desert Biome. Snow only occurs in the snowy biome and will fall on all blocks within it, as well as turning the top level of water (with water below it) into ice.


EDIT:

Rain also features storms, which make the area dark enough to spawn aggresive mobs. This features thunder and lightning, lightning will set fire to anything it hits and will turn pigs into zombie pigmen (When struck).


2 new shrubs: Shrubs for pine and Birch trees.
2 new rails: Detector Rail (Think a pressure plate for minecart tracks) and Booster Rail (Will increase the speed of the cart without bugs/glitches).
Achievements and Statistics (We all know this)

I think I summed it up, Minecraft wiki doesn't even have this yet!

And Tek, you fail if you bought fortresscraft and not Minecraft.

Especially since it's going up to $25/$30 soon when it's finished (November 11th 2011 is the projected date of completion)

Cool, will it be in terms of "looks pretty cool", or "does something cool"?
Just because I'm a little more skilled at the latter.

 

[Brad]

Just wondering about the server?

 

[Psychonaut]

Just wondering about the server?

the server was being run off of andy's personal laptop/computer, so it was not really the "official" tbt server per se.. but a community project, if you will.

it was basically put on hiatus due to lack of interest from the community, and andy's laptop, well.. being a laptop, as opposed to a real server/gaming pc. even minecraft is a game, kids.

but yeah, it's down unless there's a lotta people want it, and if andy feels particularly generous.

or if someone else wants to hack together a server. that'd always work, i guess.

 

[Brad]

i see.

He should try to bring it back now. Theirs a lot more interest in the game now!
