Any idea why mobs are spawning on the top of Legendary? It never did that before.

Hight limit changed to 256, adds more spawn space. It's valid now.

Be grateful, it makes the map easier

Didn't Vechs adjust the height in the 3.0 update? The water pillar seems rather higher.

EDIT: "3.0 - Support for Minecraft anvil format, additional random loot chest, now that I have control over biomes, I made the entire map Forest, so no more snow in the desert / lava areas.  Also no more snow setting off traps early..." This is what he meant by support for Anvil, right? Not just converting it?

No, he just converted it. No changes to the height were done.

That isn't very good then, seeing that I happened to place my torches all in the spider part of the cave...

Ummm.  Just tossing out a few things-- this is a simple suggestion, and you really didn't need to PM it to me-- PMing something to me doesn't make the suggestion hold any more weight than normal.  So there's that.

As for bugging Dinnerbone about it, I dunno.  It'd be cool, that's for sure.  But they've got a lot to work on right now as it is, so I'm not going to bring it up with him right now.  But, that is a neat idea to experiment with after they've gotten this round of content pushed out.

I don't think it would need to affect anything else on the monster -- I'd rather have manual control over all it's data.

Also keep in mind, Mojang tries to avoid just making monsters have bigger videogame numbers.  Behavioral changes are their favorite thing.

Hey Vechs, just wondering, what map are you going to work on after Inferno Mines? I have been looking at Fallen Kingdom and I am suddenly really interested to see how that turns out!

Mountain Blade?

[HarrisonJukebox]

OK, up to the third tree now. Thanks for the creepers, Vechs

Now I'm boxed up with my chest and crafting table waiting for the night to end. Then maybe I'll make it to Intersection 1.

Second try is turning out somewhat well. Well, better than what happened before this.

You don't really have to tell us what entirely happened on your entire adventure in Legendary. Just die in it, and everyone is a bit more happy. Maybe not you, but sacrifices are made for good.

Fallen Kingdom has been more or less abandoned. Vechs said he might do it someday, but the concept and making all those buildings are tired.

Also, this screenshot from Aftermath was pretty silly so I figured I'd share it. This was when I had leather armor and stone tools.

I just get some kind of urge when someone quotes something out of date, so I just put that. I thought it would be a bit more... tolerable. Maybe.

Oh god let it be tolerable

We already can have cave spiders with 100 hearts. With that we could have .1 size cave spiders with 100 hearts.

Or, you know, something actually balanced.

Anyways, in mapmaking, I found that custom heads are useless. If I want a boss with some kind of monster face, I need to find a player with the monster face and hope they don't change their skin. Good luck with that.

I think it would be neat if there was some kind of feature that allowed us to assign skins to non existent usernames and use those in our maps. I don't know if this is possible, but it sure would be great.

Sort of like deviantArt's plz accounts, right?
... Almost no one is going to know what I the heck I'm talking about...

So, basically, Steves would be yet again possible?

Yep.

StratMaster007, on 13 January 2013 - 11:18 PM, said:

So, Legendary II.

What if Vechs revamped Legendary.  Twice as high boundaries, new blocks(stone bricks, emeralds, redstone blocks, redstone lamps nether brick, etc), new mobs, tweaked traps, and a completely redone Nether area(just to keep us on our toes).  In fact, he could actually completely change most of the areas.

Or maybe I'm just describing Inferno Mines.

Vechs?  What do you think?

I think you're descibing Inferno Mines... Mostly. ;p

Nope, he just converted it. That's actually harder than it sounds; the blocks at the very top of the map messed up the conversion a bit.

Oh... well that answers that question!

[HarrisonJukebox]

I think Vechs is at a pretty big disadvantage with zombies and skeletons carrying enchanted items. It's possible to have an enchanted iron pick in the first few minutes, really.

Boom. Hybran and I have completed Canopy Carnage. For the 2nd'th time. Here is le' victory screenshots.

CC is such a fun map in 1.7, it is a pain to find stuff occasionaly though :/

[Bly]

I tried CC in B1.7.  After about 27 minutes, I ragequit.  The biggest change, imo, is sprinting.  Walking everywhere is SO.  DANG.  SLOW.
