Quote from Neospector
how many (more well-known, if any at all) game companies do you know that have sued for anything?
Capcom filed suit against Data East Corporation (Data East ISA, Inc.) in 1994, alleging that Data East had knocked off Capcom's Street Fighter characters for its Fighter's History game
In November 1997, Nintendo sued guidebook publisher Prima Guides (Imagine Media) for allegedly lifting maps and tips for GoldenEye 007 out of Nintendo's publication Nintendo Power and then making a profit on the guide.
n April 1999, a California court denied an injunction Sony Computer Entertainment America (SCEA) sought against software emulator maker Bleem that would keep the company from publishing its PlayStation emulator for the PC
Sega of America sought legal action against Electronic Arts, Fox Filmed Entertainment, Vivendi Universal's Fox Interactive, and Radical Games for The Simpsons Road Rage in December 2003.
There is more but I got bored

I am not sure where you see that, because I don't see it in this post, or any other similar posts for that matter (God knows how many there are out there)
constructive criticism
criticism or advice that is useful and intended to help or improve something, often with an offer of possible solutions
All I see is whining and bitching like: I don't like this, and I used to like that but now it sucks or is boring.
This is not constructive criticism, this is criticism voiced out of self-interest, which has the opposite effect, nobody will listen, because nobody cares what you think is boring or what you think is interesting

Glad to hear that, and it was my pleasure.

First this is incomplete, you have to copy and paste EXACTLY what I typed in my second post, second this will set it to 512 mgb which is half of what Minecraft needs, so it would be pretty much useless to get this .bat file to work
I hope you are joking, or at least exaggerating, because if you are serious, then getting MC to work should be the least of your worries. if you are losing the will to live over a game that costs even 10 x 17.95, you need help, but not the kind of help you would get from any of us
The game is NOT unplayable, do you really think it would have sold 7 MILLION copies if it was, please don't blame Mincraft for the trouble you are having
I don't consider myself a 'techie type of person, I think it is a matter of following instructions, none of the things I mentioned need you to be a computer wizard, but they do require that you do EXACTELY what I said for it work

Don't mention it, it is no trouble at all
You are getting closer.
the echo command, is like a print command so when you type
echo %PATH%
this will only list 'locations your computer will look for commands you are trying to execute'
Try this now, copy and paste Minecraft.exe in the same location as the javaw.exe, now create the Minecraft.bat file in the same location (replace the code according to the location)
Let me know if that helped

You may need to add the location of javaw.exe to your PATH.
You could go to a prompt/terminal and type
echo %PATH%
...and it will tell you which folders are in your path. The PATH are the locations your computer will look for commands you are trying to execute. If it cannot find the command in the current folder, it will look through each and every folder in your PATH. You will then need to locate where you do have your javaw.exe. (After installing a recent edition of Java, you really should have one somewhere)
Once you've found it, you should add it to your path. you may try to add that folder to your path manually by typing:
set PATH=%PATH%;c:\java\bin
In this example, I assume you found the javaw.exe in c:\java\bin. You should substitute this with whereever you actually found it.
Once you've done that, change your current location to where you have the .bat file .

I have windows XP, maybe it is different with other versions of windows, or maybe try Notepad and not Wordpad, as long as you don't save it under a txt file, because it won't work if it is just a text file, what version of windows do you have? , I'll try and look up how it would be done with your version of windows

I am glad you got it working but here is what I did, since I did this MC never crashes and never lags.
MC needs 1gig of RAM to run at 100%, anything less and it could run out of memory
-Locate where Mincraft.exe is, mine is on my desktop
-If your Mincraft.exe is on your desktop copy and paste the following in a notepad document:
@echo off
start /high javaw -Xms1024m -Xmx1024m -
jar "C:\Documents and
Settings\ComputerName\Desktop\Minecraft.exe"
-Replace ComputerName with your coputer name
-If your Minecraft.exe is not on your desktop, then replace that with whatever file name you have it in
-Click on 'Save as". NOTE in most cases the 'Save as type' field will be populated with the words 'Text Document(''.txt) ' change it to 'All Files'...It won't work if you don't do this.
-File name Minecraft.bat
-save in the same location as Minecraft.exe
-double click on the file you just created, MC should start, congratulations you are now running MC at 100%
WARNNING: don`t do this if you have less than 1gig of RAM

I strongly think that Mojang should work/improve on the existing content and not add anything at all. I am not implying that what they have added is buggy or unfinished, my reasoning:
When the API is implemented, this will bring in an unlimited amount of content that can be added to the game without any effort or $ on their part, although this can be done now, many new comers are not comfortable with the way mods are installed, or how you have to update everything with every new MC version.
So if it was up to me, I would concentrate most, if not all of my resources to roll out the API as soon as possible, once that is done, I would turn Minecraft into a platform (kind of the way Facebbok is... or at least used to be), this will lower the entry point to creating mods, and will open the door for almost anybody to add whatever they want.
The game would become fully customizable, just an example:
add/remove any mobs, or even create a whole new mob without ruining the game for somebody else, win-win.

BuildCraft,IndustrialCraft and Forestry will all allow you do that
Edit: I`ve seen some pretty amazing redstone creations on youtube, maybe you don`t know how to use it (I don`t either) but that does not mean there is no point to it, learn to use it and you will understand``the point of redstone``
