OK so I found an NPC village with 17 houses (including church and forge). I've lit up the interior of each house, placed additional lamp posts all around the village, and added a 2nd door to each house.
I started with probably about 20+ villagers, but after doing some mining, came back to notice about half of them had died (I think cacti and zombies). Even worse, the only profession left was farmer.
So I figured I might still be over the house/villager ratio, and to get them to breed, I kept 3 of them captive and lit all the others on fire.
I'm now down to three villagers in this huge village. I have all the conditions met, but they just won't breed!!!
It's been about 20+ minecraft days and not one child yet. I've noticed that all three of the villagers tend to stick to one side of the town and stay in the same house at night.
I don't get it, what am I doing wrong? Any help is appreciated.
Hey all,
Thought I would share a pretty cool seed I found. This seed is for the second snapshot released this past Thursday. The world type should be set to "large biomes".
SEED: 4133306040380131920
You will spawn on the outskirts of a jungle and see a vast desert in front of you. Turn right and head straight into the desert. After walking for about 1 minute you will see an awesome gigantic sandstone NPC Village.
A pyramid is buried under the village. You will see one of the towers with orange wool poking out of the sand.
Sorry no pictures. Trust me this one is bad ass! Plenty of goodies in the village and pyramid.
What a stupid philosophy the op has. Stealing is stealing. These entitled brats think they have a right to play a game even though they can't afford it. You little lazy bastards are the reason this country is so ****ed up. Learn to work for your rewards and earn things the right way. Justifying your stealing by saying your working to save money so you don't have to steal is a joke. One day you'll grow up and you'll probably still expect the government and/or your workplace to give you handouts. You are pathetic.
To put it simply... Biome borders seem to be linked to terrain height. So you no longer have those hills or mountains with an ugly swamp streak up the side of them.
Spawned a few different worlds yesterday in 12w08a and noticed the following:
Biome transitions are linked to terrain height: example swamp meets grassland. The swamp biome stays in the low land and the grassland biome covers the slightly higher hills. Swamp colored grass did not extend up into the higher terrain of the grassland but seemed to cut off as soon as the terrain height changed.
I've also noticed small patches of trees generating in grasslands.
In Jungles, the shading of:(grass,trees,tall grass,vines,etc.) surrounding small lakes often has a different biome tint to it... Check it out.. I know before if you were in the heart of a biome, you would never see different shading but now I am seeing it in certain areas.
All around cleaner transitions between biomes and it seemed that biomes were linked more realistically... Example... Swamp Biome sits in the low lands... Slight terrain height changes signified the transition into a grassland biome... grassland then transitioned into a mountain biome. I did not see any snow near deserts and I flew around in creative for quite a while.
Check it out via creative and just fly around... I think these are some of the new "world changes" Jeb was talking about and honestly, I can say that the terrain generation looks absolutely beautiful in 12w08a.
Has anyone else noticed? discuss!Oh and just for the record... I'm very sensitive to terrain generation changes because when I play Minecraft it is not uncommon for me to generate 50-100 different worlds before I find one I really like and play on it for a while. I've probably generated 5,000+ different worlds... Most of the time I just delete and respawn, but I do a heavy amount of exploring too.
I cannot believe there are actually 17 individuals out there who don't want new ores. What is wrong with you people. Will you really be that butt hurt about having to start a new world? Did you invest the past year of your life building some epic world that you just can't bear to have to part with? Seriously... Why in the hell are there votes for "neither" You people sicken me!!

Obviously you've never had XyCraft installed. Now there is a mod that should NEVER be implemented. Vanilla or FTB IMO.
