3 - now whenever you press the "r" button, the rain will toggle on or off
4 - since you don't know any other commands, it's just like you're still playing vanilla minecraft, just with a toggle for rain
What part of "It's my sandbox" do you not understand? I don't want to have to install a mod. Even World of Warcraft allows you to shut off the weather in-game without hacking the client.
I'd like to be able to turn off snow only, or at least it's effect of gathering snow on top of blocks. Building a huge project that inevitably hits a snow biome just sucks when it all gets covered in snow :sad.gif:
Yeah, why theres not an option to toggle on/off everything i want?
I dont like dirt, i dont want it in my world. Oh wait, i dont like wooless sheeps, i want to toggle that off too.
bad news that’s not rain in your sandbox, shame on that neighbor kid! I dont like the rain either, it sounds awful theres too much of it and it lags me out, I do however like the snow, its very calm a peaceful. its best at night in a deep cave with a hole to the top.

guess i made my point right?
I'm not very fond at all of all these squares, can I turn those off too?
Or the map limit. I's too big.
Let's make it 7.
And lava. No more lava.
Or mobs.
Why can't I turn those off?
My personal preference would be 'no', and indeed I wish they'd fix 'sleep resetting the weather' (which is currently one way to clear it if you really have to).
On the other hand, I would appreciate a better audio for it.
That said, since I'd like 'on/off' options for other things in Minecraft, I can't see the harm in having rain as one of several other options you could configure.
I feel exactly the same. Wouldn't hurt anything if there was an off option, but I wouldn't use it. Better sound effects for it would be nice though.
More than an off option, I would like 2 different rain levels: one light rain, and another heavy rain like it is now -- that would be nice. Also would love if the rain would start and end a bit more softly, not like someone turned the tap on or off all of a sudden.
C418's twitter said that for 1.8 he is going to make rain less annoying (sound wise). What do you think it will sound like? We will never know...or should I say we will never know soon.
Damn, you sure couldn't be any more of a brown-noser than you already are.
I agree with you OP, let there be an option to turn off rain. Either this or make it have a less annoying sound. Quite frankly, I don't care which - but an option to turn it off would be very convenient.
I kinda agree, it can get mighty annoying, but I know that it's something I hafta live with if I want to play the game, or I cojuld just live in the desert. In my SMP I live in the snow, so that's a lot better, but as someone else said before, the snow gets on your projects, etc, etc, and the torches make Ice water, which kinda ruins the effect. :/
Many flaws with the weather system, but I still like it.

That's because in WoW it's just a graphical nicety.
Rain in MC affects game play. It affects light levels and thus monster spawning, and the effects of sunlight on mobs, and crop hydration, and fish frequency.
So no, you can't just make it an option, because there's more to it than just "Ooh I think rain is obnoxious so I shouldn't have to listen to it."
not like someone turned the tap on or off all of a sudden.
SUDDENLY, RAIN.
No but, I would agree that different levels of it would help a lot, and how you said it could ease up a bit before ending, it would make it a lot nicer IMO.
Black and white...
Clear as crystal.
"Less annoying" != "Ability to shut it the **** off"
There is a disable rain option.
Like this if it helped.
Give a man a fish, and he'll be fed for a day.
Is this youtube now?

Rain is useless and annoying.
The main menu begs to differ:
Mojang can do whatever the hell they want with the game, if you don't like something you change it how you'd like by modifying it.

Look at the post above you.

And to the toggle sheep without wool, bad example. You can already "toggle" them with ease with your fist.
'cept for the decent people, you get a pass from my hate train.
