[PC] ERRYDAY MINECRAFT

Just doing my patriotic gesture:

more screens:

Made a model of the Sears Tower


GIANT STAIRS looking prettier


Lay of the land



CHz's special gift

Spoiler:

CHZ IS A FUCKHEAD

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I wonder if anyone will find this before pack destroys the world with one gigantic cave-in~

Directions to :

Head over to Acer's forest ruins. They're the overgrown black building behind the YOU DUN GOOFED sign, about to be eaten by the Green Dragon sprite.



Follow the stairs inside all the way down to the bottom. (Don't fall into pack's sinkhole on the way.) Keep following the passageway at the bottom, and eventually you'll find a doorway to the room on the left.

Bonus directions to TAILS SUCKS:

Find this underground entryway over here:



Follow the staircase straight down until you hit a wall with branches going left (down) and right (up), and hang a left. Keep following that passageway down until you find the brick doorway.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Minecraft needs more colors.



I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

You are both insane and I love you. <3

Has anyone tried out my high dive yet? =')

I was speaking idiomatically.

All blocks on the server are now floating blocks (gravity disabled).



What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Hey Flonne, you seen my carpet?



FELIPE NO

Ahaha you guys are nuts



Oh what's this, someone made a hole




Wait whaaaaaat





OH MY GOD

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Yeah seriously, I stumbled upon that by way of my ruin stairs and holy shit I about pissed myself.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Curiously, I probably spent more time trying to figure out the curvature of the arches and maintaining symmetry than on any other individual part of the cavern.

Btw, there's a stairwell to the top of the ruins tucked away in a corner.
Also, there's a somewhat scenic one-way entrance to the pit by Shin's castle. Its framed with rock.
I plan on adding a bunch more to the ruins when I find the time.
Unfortunately, many of these sorts of geological features are impossible with gravity off.

Most amazing jew boots

What the fuck is going on here.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

If you guys want, I can add gravity back to earth blocks.

Edit: aaaand they're back in.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

"AUWGAWWWH-"::buried::

EDIT:

Holy god that shaft. People need to log on just to jump down it. Play some dramatic ambient music while you explore.

I was speaking idiomatically.

I think we should build a wicker man next.

That cave is ridiculous as are CHz's tunnels. I improved the 9/11 tribute a bit too.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

So, has anyone else discovered the chat commands yet? You can get a list of them by typing "/help" (without quotes) and hitting return. Pretty much all of them are admin-only or something so they don't work, but here are the ones you can use:

/help: Show all of the commands. Including the ones you can't use!

/tp name: Teleport to name's location. Sneak up behind someone, drop some blocks, and warp back somewhere else before they see you!

/spawn: Respawn at the world's spawn location, like you just logged on. Good if you want to get back to the surface while having a saved location underground, or if you're trapped somewhere and didn't save a location.

/roll XdYY: Roll X YY-sided dice. "/roll 2d6" will print "4, 2" or something along those lines to your console, for example. (WHY DO WE NEED THIS)

/me action: Perform an IRC-style action. So "/me is lost beyond all belief." will send "* CHz is lost beyond all belief." to everyone.

/ping: Ping the server. It'll just send "Pong" back, it won't tell you how long it took. Useful!

FELIPE NO

I still dont understand how that pit was created?

also fuck you who keeps destroying my shit.

no homo

How ya doing, buddy?

Were you listening to The Dude's story, Flonne?



There's nowhere I can't reach.

WHAT THE FUCK DOES VIETNAM HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING

How ya doing, buddy?

Progress!

First over-the-internet test of Survival Mode Multiplayer

We just finished doing the first test of Multiplayer Survival Mode, and it worked relatively well.



There were plenty of bugs, of course, such as lag spikes making the client prediction break badly (blocks reappear), duplicate resources spawning (with half of them being fake ones that can’t be picked up), doors behaving badly, the server lagging when people join/leave and explore at the same time, and ultimately (after about 30 minutes) running out of memory and crashing.

But overall it felt smooth, logging in was quick, you could chat, and sharing resources worked fine. Crafting and Inventory management were purely client side in this version, meaning I’ve got some work to do there to verify all of that.

I’ll be spending the rest of the week (tomorrow) on the secret friday stuff, then get back to working on multiplayer next week. We’re getting closer to beta! =D

From Notch's Blog

Also "secret friday stuff" piques my interest.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

SECRET FRIDAY UPDATE 6

A USE FOR MILK INCLUDED

I was speaking idiomatically.

Shamelessly linking a rollercoaster minecraft world I made some weeks back. Apparently the megaupload link I had in my journal was broken and I couldn't be arsed to check (nor did anyone comment about it) derp.
Still I think any mc owner should see this just for the short kicks:

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Although my pc renders java way too slowly to play minecraft at all, I can play it reasonably comfortably on my laptop. So, I've been dicking about with Blah's server.

I made a dwarf, and nearby somebody else made a tomb for me (thanks!)

But in the true spirit of Dorfdom, I decided to make an overly ambitious and not-at-all safe megaproject. I'm going to build some glass structures underwater.

It's not done yet, but here are some screenshots.

View as you enter:

View of the stairs on the outside, along with some scaffolding:

A different view of the stairs. White & leaf blocks are scaffolding, dirt is just dirt I haven't cleared away yet:

Right now I'm just trying to dig way a big enough room in order to have some cool shit in here. Originally I was going to have a pyramid, but now I think I'm going to do a different structure in order to accommodate the size of the room. Digging away all this dirt takes a lot of time, christ.

What's planned are several structures, tunnels, and paths to get in both the glass structures (while dry) and the outer room (which will be flooded), mosaics/sprites on the walls, and maybe some little caves or something I don't know.

Also looking at the screenshots, I might carve away a bunch of those rocky bits near the stairs. The rest of the room will be relatively flat and therefore the rocky bits will look out of place.

FELIPE NO

This week was not a good week for Minecraft. After dying twice in caves, losing 10 diamonds' worth of tools in the process, I decided to screw caves for a while and work on one of the projects I'd been bouncing around in my head.

6 hours and a dozen falls to my death later, and what do I have to show for it?



A ladder on the way to my backyard.



The ladder is encased in glass on all sides.



And it opens up into a glass tube floating in midair.

Turn left, and you see a half finished portion. I'm currently messing with water physics to see if I can make a flume ride.



In the meantime, I made an observation deck to look at the bitchin' cliff my house is across from.



Turn right from the entrance and you wind through a path that takes you through the other of two holes that this cliff has in it, all the way around the cliff...



and ending with a diving board.



It's very high up.



GERONIMOOOOO



The only downside at this point is there's no quick way to get back up there. I'm trying to do as little damage to the outer facade of the cliff as possible, so I need to find a way to hide a cave that gets you back to that ladder. Anyway, this is what it looks like from in the backyard and in the preview tool:



I hope this bit of GENTLEMEN BEHOLD meets with approval.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

Jam it back in, in the dark.
