Searching for Hardcore PVP servers.
#4 Why do you want to join DarkTide:
Because I wanna play on a hardcore PVP server, and your combat plugin looks awesome.
#5 Did you read the rules?
Yep!
#6 Have you logged into DarkTide at least once?
I have. Multiple times, even!

That'd be a great help, if I hadn't done some troubleshooting of my own in the time since I posted that. I re-downloaded minecraft.jar, and installed Modloader and this mod. Now when I try to get into a world, I get a black screen and a crash.

I've got an issue! I tried to install this mod, I installed ModLoader,OptiFine, and a few other mods. When I try to load the game, I crash with the following Modloader.txt. Any ideas what's going wrong?

I can't figure out what the "ArrayIndexOutOfBoundsException" is about, can anybody shed some light?

Thanks in advance! :biggrin.gif:

Scientifically, the first experiment in the first video was flawed.

On one of the trials you didn't fill the lava pool completely, therefore invalidating your results, were it a proper experiment.

Given that the delicacy of the experiment wasn't crucial, the results are still acceptable.
Next time make sure that each of your experiments are conducted EXACTLY the same.

If I were to use this in conjunction with makeMyItem, would I be able to use it with something other than the crafting table/furnace?

I plan to extend crafting to multiple crafting tables, would these items be usable with them?

I've started work on something like this, not quite multi-smelting, but I want to make multiple crafting areas, such as a smelter, smith, forge, and anvil. I plan for multiple minerals in this category. Metals like mithril, adamantine, runite, and other mythical metals, along with existing metals and alloys, but I make no promises. Minecraft is harder to mod for than I thought it would be. :/

At the moment I'm working on adding Copper ore and ingots.

That's a great tutorial, but what about defining items? I've had a hell of a time trying to add a custom ore, could someone help with that?

I'm trying to do it with Modloader, obviously, but I can't figure out how to make it work.

Here's what happens when I'm trying to compile, but I'm having trouble reading the errors it gives me. It doesn't point the errors out to me, it just gives me the line.

and the mod:

package net.minecraft.src;

import java.util.Random;

public class mod_Copper extends BaseMod{

public String Version();
{
	return "1.2_02";
}

public static Item ingotCopper =(new Item(100).setIconCoord(7,3).setItemName("ingotCopper"));

public static final Block oreCopper;

{
	oreCopper = (new BlockOre (103, 1)).setHardness(5F).setSoundFootstep(Block.soundStoneFootstep).setblockname("oreCopper");
}

public int idDropped (int i, Random random);
{
	if(blockID == Block.oreCopper.blockID);
		{
			return Item.copper.shiftedIndex;
		}
}
public boolean canHarvestBlock(Block block)
{
	if(block == Block.blockCopper || block.blockMaterial == Block.oreCopper)
			{
				return true;
			}
}
}

Bear in mind that I have little to no experience in Java, and intermediate experience with programming languages.

I thought this was compatible with BL/BG?
It turns my Bettergrass Grey and breaks Betterlighting... What is bt.class used for?

Apparently for whatever reason since the last patch, compatibility with BL has broken. We (our team and MrMessiah, the maker of BetterLight) want to re-evaluate the code, but he's currently dealing with a lot of things in real life as I understand it, so we'll just wait till he's available again. We have no intention to pester him about or discuss the details right now.

Alright, that's all good. I can deal with grey grass for a while. :biggrin.gif:

Keep up the good work.

Off-topic: Do you mind if I look at the source code?

Is it a problem with the mods, or am I just installing it wrong?

Altimor is MIA again, so here is the download link for the updated mod.
Download: http://www.mediafire.com/?9yy6fg831rhl75p

For some reason when I download this it attempts to use Bettergrass, but the full grass on the side doesn't color with biomes. The grass that I've moved in my texture pack does, though.

I'd prefer if you could supply a version that does not utilize Bettergrass. Thanks in advance!

Edit: Apparently it's Fancypack. I thought Fancypack was compatible with BG/BL, but apparently not. :[

Sweet, that's a major factor, I'll probably buy from you guys if I do get a server. I'm from a small town just southeast of Denver, so that's awesome.

Denver as in Denver, Colorado?

anyways so what if I'm a kid? 16 and proud of it b*tch, sorry I'm not the accepted wise 35 y.o with perfect grammar, of which everyone loves to act like on the internet.

You fool. Age is never indicative of intelligence. Take a look at myself, and nicaetinismo, if he's to be believed, we are both 17. Yet, looking at his post, he has articulated a very good argument, with solid points, and while it may be subjective, his beliefs tell of intelligence beyond his years.

I feel, though, that this digression has reached its peak, and probably should be moved to a different thread, preferably in the Off-Topic section, and that we should return to discussion of Mo' Creatures. This thread has been derailed, let's try to get back on track!

Ugh I just posted a huge reply and the forums ate it nom nom nom. SHORT VERSION: I can find all my files, I don't know in detail how to devolve my version to 1.2.6.

Basically, if you can find a backup of Minecraft.jar from alpha, put it into your %appdata%\.minecraft\bin folder, and run minecraft. If it tries to update, exit out and run minecraft again, this time intentionally inputting the wrong password, and play offline for the time being. :biggrin.gif:
Hope it works!

On a side note:
One thing I've noticed in this show of intellectual muscle, is that most of you seem to deem the denizens of the internet as lesser beings, simply because they may not have as extensive a vocabulary. I would contest that simply vocabulary does not communicate intelligence, it is simply communicative of worldiness. I have a friend, for example, who can't even spell simple words, and yet he is among the smartest people I know. His only shortcoming is his lack of articulation, but I digress. Bear in mind, though, that it is not articulation, but content, that truly determine a person's intelligence.
