Okay,yeah I wish bukkit and the mods(should be a band,lol)would get back into action...
So,how do you think I could fix that problem,or do you not have an answer.

I can't get the Twitch feature working...I have connected both of my accounts,but it said," Twitch Broadcasting Unavailable-Unfourtunately your computer does support the integrated Twitch broadcasting service (Reason: null) -__-
Null,isn't specific...It could mean anything.

Umm... Anybody notice the recessed lighting in the ceiling? Obviously it's a redstone lamp, but how did they get that nice partial-block gap around it? Probably much better for lighting a room....

So you want them to stall the development of the Mod API because not only are you afraid to use the tool they straight-away give you, but also because you're so presumptuous that you automatically think the "resource format" is going to be all that much harder to use? How selfish.

Ok one of the 4 said they were working on performance issues. He said that the game does not run the way they want it to on new machines. He then said that the game has been programed to run on quite old machines as well. That in and of it's self is half the problem. I'm not saying it's a bad idea to make your game work for a large base of people. However it's going to take a lot of work to make the game run right for us all. Perhaps they need to narrow their focus a bit. Perhaps not focus on making the game run on PET computers as well (yes that was a very old man joke).
They have also said in the past that game ran poorly on some newer machines, and in that video they mentioned a few times that they were working on changing the client drastically and are working on a new rendering engine. Would make since as OptiFine actually uses the graphic engine to render things and wala doubles your frames (note it probably does not work on PET/old ass computer).
That tells me that they know about the damm lagg, and it's a lot bigger problem than changing a few lines of code. It sounds to me like they took a look a the client, and then realized that it all has to go. Even harder they can't just scrap the hole thing and start over because the game is already out. I would not envy this task were it me.
So it looks like the road to the API is longer than thought.
1. One code to rule them all.
2. Make the game work for them all.
3. Finish the Mod API
What I'm saying is in order to get to the goal you have to put the steps in place to get there.. You can't just shove a 350 small block chevy into a Mini Cooper without also installing a transmission and drive train that can take it. You will just brake something else in the process.
So that is the problem. It looks like a short list, but every task is very long. If you put out the API before the merge, you would have to code it twice. If you do it before the performance problems are fixed one thing might break the other. They need a good solid performing engine before they make it modifiable. That way they know what they can allow to be tinkered with. This is going to take a lot of time.
So now If they all simply worked on the performance, merge, and bug issues, and then put out a new update when all that was done. We would still be looking for our first update in over a year. How mad would people be then. After a week or two away from a new update you see threads on here posting "When will the X.X.X update come out it's been too long!" Don't believe me, just look what happens when they don't do a snapshot update. So someone has to do small projects, give us fluff, short term goals, wile they work on the bigger, long term things.
It's a good idea if you ask me. The internet is not a patchent world after all. We want it more, bigger, better, faster. And we want it when....... Yesterday.
BTW you too might be a bit gun shy to change anything as well. If every time you did you got millions of hate mail. Now your hating on Jeb because he is trying to not offend people. Poor guy can't catch a brake. Think of the hell caused of a stinken' Potato. If he made a terrain piece that has Potato patch in it, how many people would complain that they have to restart their world because they have to walk a few thousand meters to generate a new chunk? Then by the gods if it has a ridge in it all hell will brake loose because it's so ugly. Wait for all hell to brake loose we need to make a portal (hymp). So then if their is no freeken sand nearby the world will simply come to an end. No wait to get to the end we need a totally different portal, only found in a strong hold that forms underground so long as nothing else crosses it's path, but ....gaaaaaaaa!

Welcome to the internet. Where you can be rude and not stand in front of the person your being rude to.
You forget after a wile the little things in any game that at first were difficult. So when you see a new player doing the same wrong things because they are learning as well, you poke fun. Some people poke fun because they are admitting that they were their once as well, and it's an attempt to co-misserate. Other are just rude, small minded jerks.
The trick is to never let it bother you, and learn what ever tasks you need to for you to become competent. Video games and real life. Someone is always gonna be the "New guy". And when your not the new guy, your job is to help the new guy. Because it will lessen the annoyance of everyone. Too many people forget that.

Reproduce the experiment and see what happens.
To my knowledge they were not altered. Sounds fun though.

Only thing he is guilty of is talking about it in public. Poor guy has apparently never known people. People are evil and will build you up, only to tear you down.
Few of us would do much better in his place.
Though with that kinda money I would have bought an island and cut all ties with the world never to be seen again.
That would have bought me a lot of happiness.

.I have an R9...
AMD A10 CPU, with an R9 GPU
1. Get good FPS in general till.
2. look at a row of item frames..
I go from 200+ FPS to 20 FPS, and life sucks!
Yes I do use Optifine
No I don't run shades.
It's fine if you don't look at dozens of item frames at once. Any other time the game runs smooth.

Minecraft hates Intel GPU's, so if you don't get a dedicated GPU your gonna hate life.
I have an AMD A10 and Radeon R9 GPU. Works ok, but too many entities will kill my FPS.
A quad core i5 and decent video card should do for now. I would say an intel CPU over AMD's because they seem to work better.

About right for those specs.
Game really hates intel HD graphics.

Forgetting to add the size variable to World Edit. For some reason some of the default areas are 255 blocks radius.
Second biggest crash is copy/paste'ing an object that is too large.

Etho is a pretty good source for the game. You can start watching about Episode 100. That is about the time Minecraft hit the the beta 1.8 update and became pretty much the minecraft we have now. Their have been a lot of new things sense then, but the game behaves pretty much the same.

Not 100% accurate but it works.
"googling" just about anything into google will turn up results. I can type "mob farm" into google and it will bring me all types of minecraft mob farms, redstone contraptions, or just simple game mechanics.
Other than that. My personal advice.
Don't dig straight up or down.
Working under water is a pain.
A wall 3 blocks high with a block overhang will stop a lot of mobs from finding you if your on the other side.
Light up EVERTHING at first.
The armless green things.......not your friend.
shelter #1 priority. Even if shelter is hole in ground with grass roof and a torch.
punch a crap ton of trees on day one, oak preferably, get the apples. Replant the trees ASAP.
mow the lawn, plant the seeds nearby your shelter, day one if possible. It takes forever for wheat to grow, but once you fill in a small area for farming you'll have more food than you need.
Make bed, No more nighttime.
speaking of shelter and home base. Everything looks alike after a while. So hit F3 and jot down the X,Y,Z of your home. Trust me, eventually you'll be standing their looking at some block hill going "Where the hell am I?"
And lastly...Build stuff. Don't matter if it looks good, is square, lines up, what ever. My fist structures were crap. Floors to low, building was not big enough, no room for redstone. They sucked. However I learned more from that than I have on anything else.
Also when you do google something about this game. Don't freek out when you see what some else built. We've been at this for a while. So the builds you see are freeken epic. You'll get there. Eventually....someday....

Because it's the content peoples turn to complain about Minecraft.
"How dare they fix bugs we need new shinny things to play with! Waaaaaa"
Then they will drop 1.9 and we'll get all the bug fixers crying...
"Waaaaa, this shinny new thing is broken and does not match with the rest of the shinny new things! Waaaaaaa"
And now you have hard from the people who whinne about the whinning!
And the complaints have come full circle.

I found, much to my pain, that they are case sensitive. Meaning that if you look up a command and they have a capital letter. You have to make sure it is a capital letter.
They are a pain in the butt to get working. Once I figure one out I turn it into a command block and hook up a button. That way I never have to type the stupid thing again.

Spigot has kept the bukkit format alive. http://www.spigotmc.org/
Sponge Promices a lot but is not yet ready for prime time. https://www.spongepowered.org/
The sponge looks interesting because they are trying to merge MP and Mods.

So does the water temple. Once you remove the locals, and water, and stuff.

I require some form of "Noise" going when I'm working on stuff. Don't think it helps, but listening to the ringing in my ears and the buzzing of all the electronics around is just as bad.
Music has inspired me a great deal though. Some of the creative things, writing and what not, is for sure the byproduct of what ever idea I got wile jamming to something.
I get my best idea for the Minecraft when I'm waking up for the day. Fresh reboot of the processor and all. If I can, I fire up the test lab, some metal and away I go. I've puzzled out a lot of Red Stone that way.

Chickens are one block tall as well, so they get everywhere and glitch through anything.

Only lagg I get is when I'm in the center of my storage room surrounded by 300 item frames.
Then we go from 200+ down to 20. However this is not new to 1.8 it would seem.
I've also just built a $1,000 computer for a friend. Damm thing gets 100+ FPS in that same room. Suggest you build better computers for a grand.
