Hmm I think it's been long enough that, realistically, we're at under 1%! Yay!

And now, some motivation.

*Cheers sp614x on*

I get the feeling pass-it-on maps aren't as popular as they once were, however I'm thinking of starting one up myself. The two main unique things I'm considering are having a 7-day time span (as opposed to 2 hours or a day, which seems to be the norm) and a semi-RPG element where there are three "kingdoms" or "empires" the player can choose to help build up. I imagine one being a desert empire, another being based in a plains, and maybe a snow biome. I would like some feedback on these ideas.

Things you hate about Minecraft servers: Those which focuses solely on PvP servers, or that are shut down just a few months after being started, and also that on many of them, you really can't trust anyone because they might steal or grief you.

I've been having a problem ever since I got into SMP. I've been having to move from server to server. The first one I was on for an extended period of time had a fairly corrupt moderator team. The next one unexpectedly got shut down, with no warning and the IP was given to a totally different server. The staff of the next one was barely teenagers. Is anyone else having trouble finding a quality server? What might be the problem going on here?

I dig it! Though I wonder if it might look better if you used non-wool blocks where possible.

I like birch wood. The texture for the logs is pleasantly different from the others, and the planks are a nice light shade, which goes well with the much darker spruce planks.

I think as of 1.2.5, Silverfish blocks don't just spawn in strongholds anymore. They can be found randomly in the rock anywhere.

3, extreme hills. I like the terrain generated there. Building in such a biome is quite a challenge, but since I live underground it's not that difficult.

Wow, interesting to see this thread has come back to life. Very useful lists being given here.

My laptop generally gets 30-45 FPS. That's with Optifine and Game Booster running, and Minecraft set to high priority. I don't really know what else to do with it. Are there any other programs or tricks I could try to get my FPS up? I'd like to get at least 60.

Also, whenever a new sound is played, such as a cat meowing, a skeleton shooting an arrow, or a creeper hissing, the game will freeze for a few seconds. I read this had to do with OpenAL or something, and that updating my OpenAL would fix the problem, but it has not. Can anyone tell me what I should do to resolve this?

I play on Minecraft 1.4.5 (haven't felt like updating yet). My computer specs:

Processor: Intel Pentium CPU B960, 2.2 GHz
RAM: 4 GB (2.7 GB usable)
OS type: WIndows 7, 32 bit
Video card: All the Device Manager says is "Intel HD Graphics Family"

SSP and SMP were integrated because it would drastically simplify the addition of a modding API, something which people have been waiting months for. To undo that would mean taking things back to square one.

I saw the episode, and I know it's in his current world. So it's at least episode 104. And it wasn't a recent episode either, so possibly not within the past 25 episodes. But I'll be darned if I have the time to sort through 100 episodes.

Weird. I'm trying it in 1.4.5, Creative mode. I had one set of dirt blocks next to soul sand, and another with no soul sand. Tilled and seeded both. It may just be taking the seeds a while to pop off for me, but oddly enough the dirt being "watered" by the soul sand was the first to revert. I wonder if it's not just the randomness of game mechanics giving the illusion that soul sand can hydrate soil.

I wonder if this could be done with removing a USB mouse.
