Minecraft Forums

This is a question for all you programmers out there.

The screens you use to start, generate a world and set options; were they created with java's built in class JFrame? or did Notch write his own frame classes.

I'm interested because i am fairly new to java and am currently experimenting with JFrame but there are a lot of annoying things. If I know what Notch uses then I can work from there.

Thanks in advance.

Yup, same issues on my server as well. We were able to get around the invincibility/item drop bug by having the user put all on-hand inventory into a chest, log out of the server, deleting that user's .dat file, and then logging back in. If you're not an admin, check with one of the admins on your server, see if they can remove that file for you.

Thanks this works great! And yes I am an admin. lol It's actually my own server im running for LAN games.

If there is no line of sight to the player their name really should not show up.

this. or you have to point to the player with your crosshair while their in sight like counter-strike.

Ever since the Health update monsters that spawn seem to be invisible and when I do find one it is glitching in the same place and eventually dissapears. This wasn't a problem when health was off but now that it's on a spider will just start destroying you but you can't see it. It's actually kinda funny. Anyone else got this problem?

EDIT: Found out how to see monsters :biggrin.gif:. put difficulty on anything other than peaceful

Now there are new problems :sad.gif:
Mobs dont do damage and I cant pick anything up

The ghost mode in those FPS games are for spectating but you want to add this as a gameplay element? sorry no.
I wouldnt mind a ghost mode for SMP to watch other players but this just seems pointless and unfun.

I like it. And Sting_Auer Where do CARVED pumpkins come from? Anyway, I think this would be nice, except it should be that you cant break your own pots for anything, it would be a bit easy.

I believe that was a glitch maybe? Well it was halloween theme so they are special.

I dont really like this idea. why?
-want to feel alone and have a need to survive
-if it was in it would have to be blocky like everything else in MC
-yes creepers are random but they dont have a chance to give you a hug or blow up randomly so why add this level of randomness? It is kinda unfair and ruins the element of knowledge of survival and stuff...

Should notch make a bimoe thats like the amazon with snakes, more spiders and poisonis plants(mushrooms) and veicles(hard to make) such as cars or plane(car better) grapple hook ,elavators and metal

please no cars or planes but dragon mounts or horse mounts would be awesome. Fits more of the game's "theme"

Grappling hook would also be awesome. Maybe like a fishing rod but with iron instead of sticks. I do however want these things to be added after the main things and bugs have been added/fixed

Every time Notch fixes a bug, he should make a new bug. That way, people in this forum always have something to complain about.

This is already happening. Everytime. Since Forever.

lol but I dont blame Notch were still in beta and were suposed to test the bugs anyway.

The beginning was cool but then you just started going all over the place. This is what i think he should be like.

Spawn only IN lava springs. but can move out of them. Cant move o far away thow else he starts hardening(cooling)

Hurt by water. Doesnt matter from where or wateva but he drops obsidian anyway.

But please no more shooting fireballs or destroying things

It probably does. I recently saw a texture pack that made cobble look kind of like mine but when I tried to install it it was super complex and I like the original MC anyway so I made an original pack with just the nicer looking cobble.

It looks quite nice, but one little fine tune could see this texture looping seemlessly!

Sorry I don't quite understand.

Screeny please?

Screeny is up.

Cobblestone is probably the most used building material in the game but it has quite an ugly appearance. I wanted to keep my original MC texture and just change the cobblestone to look nicer so I created this. Stushla's Custom Cobble. I took the brick texture and made it gray aswell as darken the parts inbetween the coble bricks. I find it looks much better than the original cobblestone.

Not sure if anyone needs or wants this but I'll put it here anyway.

Do creepers still damage blocks when they fall in liquid or do they defy the laws of ?

That would be okay but Id prefer it to be handmade block by block. I just love the idea of people inventing contraptions to be used in war and other stuff. It would kinda suck if everything was just craftable and there was nothing to invent or make. the greatest thing in this games is the sandbox aspect and crafting isnt part of it. I think as many things should stay on the sandbox side and not move to the prebuilt side.
