Could you maybe combine that Bloom shader with your Default Shader? I don't know GSGL very well(learning it) and I'm having trouble implementing it into your shader. I just love both so much, I want my world ULTRA pretty.
How about everyone who is against this idea, just GTFO and ignore this thread. You DO NOT have to witness, be apart of, help, or even acknowledge the idea of a server where people are building Azeroth (which I think would be fun, for the record.)
Everyone here has paid for the game. We can build whatever we want. Who cares if it's original, stolen, real, or whatever; this game is meant to be a creative sandbox, and half of creativity is inspiration.
So screw the haters. OP, if you can find a server to do this on, I would love to join. I played quite a bit of WoW, and I feel it would be fun to build some of Azeroth.

I can't believe how terrible the response is to this. Not playing it is one thing, but to base your entire response on hatred and stereotype is... um... well, what I wanted to say originally is far too offensive and will probably get me banned. So, instead, I'll say that such an opinion is so hipster. World of Warcraft isn't a bad game, if it was, twelve million strong wouldn't be playing it. And a lot of the architectural designs in the game are something to marvel at, it would definitely be a fun challenge to try to recreate some of it.
With that aside, I've seen an attempt at Stormwind done in Minecraft. It was horrible. That said, I would definitely be on board for an attempt to recreate the current rendition of Stormwind in Minecraft if I was part of a team on a multiplayer server.
Also, all of THIS sums up more of MY OWN thought process from the trolls in this thread.
Ridiculous people are ridiculous.
I think people hating WoW, or WoW players hating on people who DON'T play wow are just BOTH very stupid parties.
If you'd read a bit more of the whole thread, you'd see I'm not putting him on a pedestal, and I'm not calling everyone who has a problem with the update "haters".
dotZero, if you read my post a bit better, you'd see I wasn't calling you specifically out on idolizing him, that was for others that seem to be doing so, and it was the OP and others following that were posting about the 'haters'... so far as I've seen, anyone that has a complaint about anything, to those people, they ARE the haters.
I quoted your line because many people act is if we can't complain about anything without being in the red about it, and stated that those that do get the problems fixed. It wasn't targeted at you specifically, but anyone in general that acts like those of us with complaints are only complaining for the sake of having something to complain about and not because we actually want things to work well for us, too.
We paid for it, and we have just as much right to have things working right for us, just as much as those getting what they want added to it are having it work for them.
And I do have an issue with personal attacks on Notch as well... people that do that should pull their head out of their ass, and instead, ask Notch to change things just the same way those here asked him to add things.
I worded that poorly. I meant myself and OTHERS are not placing him on a pedestal. And I agree, everyone can complain, as I have iterated a few times. But do it without being a bigot is all I'm saying.
How did my text imply I was 9? I would be surprised if a 9 year old could use fluent sentences and proper grammar and punctuation.
I'm 21, for the record.
Thank you so much for working so friggin hard on this game!
^----- Fail.
I doubt anyone could have done so much work in such a small amount of time. I have only played about a month, and I am SUPER excited to start playing the Halloween Update (just installed it this morning).
All I can say is KEEP UP THE AMAZING WORK!!!!11!!1eleven.
^-----Fail. Trying to be cool?
Ignore all the haters. They be trippin. <---Fail.
^------ Fail.
Please note I registered to the board JUST to support you, sir.
Note: All those "fails" are put there because slang is not proper grammar or spelling. Sure you have structure, but a person who know grammar would not place slang in good sentences. It's like your mixing wanna-be gangster with high school English.
So, when did this thread derail into a grammar nazi session? Where was it dictated that I can't add a bit of humor to my first post?
You're coming off as a douche.
It's like you just discovered the wonders of grammar yourself, and think you're a badass for pointing out mistakes in people writing. Seriously, get over it ;p
Yeah, Notch really ****ed up the grass and foliage. It looks hideous. One of the nicest things about MineCraft, that vibrant, beautiful landscape, has been totally ruined by this unnatural, cheap looking color variation. None of the colors work together, and they're all flat and bland now. It just looks terrible. I actually just stopped playing earlier because I suddenly just didn't want to build or explore anymore. My MineCraft world just suddenly stopped being interesting. In fact, it's just really hard to look at.
I just went for a camping trip in the real world. I saw different trees in the woods, and I thought this was hideous! So I just stopped living my life, and went to an hero.
I think you're just trying to find anything you can to complain about.
And all others stating things referring to people that have complaints are just haters...
I think you're all just propping Notch up like he's god, your special idol that can do no wrong... just look at all the kiss-ass going on to get him to implement what certain people want and have him ignore everyone else that has issues with it. Just because you're getting what you want out of it doesn't make you guys right and anyone getting screwed wrong.
By the way, nothing ever got fixed (not just relating to this game, fyi) by the yes men praising his idol... things only get fixed when the people having problems with something come and make it known. So, quit hating on the so-called 'haters' you speak of, they're the ones getting your bugs found and fixed.
As for those that have issues with where he's taking the game, we've got legit concerns as well... I for one know that taking it the direction he is going is just going to alienate a massive chunk of the crowd and **** off a hell of a lot of people that paid for the main aspect of the game, and instead, are getting screwed over by more and more tedious tasks just to be able to do stuff... all for the sake of realism in a game, that doesn't have any real aspects of reality anyway, being implemented because of certain survival mode nuts that are whining about things being too easy (probably making it easier on their own), or about how ____ isn't real enough.
FYI, most of us with those gameplay concerns don't even come to these forums... the game was working just great before, and most people don't come to a forum unless they have a problem.
Personally, I have a major problem with this update, and so does the friend I bought it for whose machine is twice as powerful and more updated than my own... there is now excessive frame skipping going on that's making it unplayable, and my friend has a machine capable of running things for more resource hogging than Minecraft. I used to have frame skips in certain spots, but now those spots are 10x worse, and I have it happening every 2 seconds / 5 steps, on any draw distance.
Yeah, the game's great, and Notch is great for making it, and he's getting rich because of it before it's even finished... but I hope he listens to those that first bought into it and made it popular, and gave him that money who paid for the game for what it was, a lego style building and exploration game, not what these certain people getting features turning it into just another WoW clone with the main aspect starting to become more of a gimmick. We're the original base, and we're the majority.
That's not to say we don't want this new stuff, we just want the option to turn some of it on and off at will, like we can with the difficulty.
Keep up the good work, and please look at your original base fans, too, Notch. Don't get caught up in the backward bending supply curve, and have less quality on Minecraft for your base fans because you already got all the money you could want from it and care less about messing with it to make it work well for all of us. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Backward_b ... _of_labour
If you'd read a bit more of the whole thread, you'd see I'm not putting him on a pedestal, and I'm not calling everyone who has a problem with the update "haters".
The haters are the people who come in, badmouth Notch WHILE complaining about bugs etc, calling him a shitty developer and a lazy ass.
Feel free to complain about the update itself, but the moment you start to badmouth at Notch, the guy doing all of this for us on his own time, you're generally just a douche.
Hell, even I have some problems with the update. But It's ALPHA. It's expected. So I don't care, and will GIVE PRAISE WHERE IT IS DUE.
He is not my god, my idol, or any other such nonsense, and nothing in the thread has implied such. I'm trying to be a SUPPORTIVE fan, that is all.
Stop assuming things, as it makes an ass out of u and me.
From the title, I expected to go into a hate thread expecting some 9 year old whining about the new update, so I was pleasantly surprised to see this thread. :smile.gif:
Lol same thing. Except it was a 9 year old complimenting him. (I assumed you were 9 because of the way your wrote your text)
How did my text imply I was 9? I would be surprised if a 9 year old could use fluent sentences and proper grammar and punctuation.
Yeah, Notch really ****ed up the grass and foliage. It looks hideous. One of the nicest things about MineCraft, that vibrant, beautiful landscape, has been totally ruined by this unnatural, cheap looking color variation.

My MineCraft world just suddenly stopped being interesting. In fact, it's just really hard to look at.
oh god, another typical complaint/bitching. And i dunno what you're talking about, there's nothing wrong or ****ed up with the grass and environment. It looks natural now, and it's NORMAL.
No, it looks completely plastic and unnatural. Some of the browns look right, but the greens are way the **** off, making everything look like plastic Army Men, where as before it looked more like lush, living grass.
If u don't like it, there are always texture packs.
I don't like the idea of using texture packs, let alone having to rely on them because Notch doesn't know how to manage the art direction.
ELSE, revert back to v1.1.2, it's that simple.
Again, no. I'm not reverting back to anything, nor should I have to. The look of the game should not have been ****ed up with the updates, they should be improved.
I'm sick of reading through topics in the halloween update section where ppl complain about their saves and their items disappearing and blaming this and that. It's called BACKING UP ur saves and previous minecraft builds/versions, and easily revert back to them whenever you want.
What? I do back all my **** up. Stop making assumptions. As for "backing up previous minecraft builds/versions", who the **** would have expected an update from the developers to make the game look worse? I shouldn't have to worry about that.
You sound like as if it's Notch's fault for adding an update
It is Notch's fault. He's the one who changed the look from beautiful, alive, lush green to this plastic, unnatural looking glob. I'm glad he added the good stuff, but bothered with the fact that he virtually ruined the look of the game.
that we should be thankful about, and the fact that u couldn't play or lost interest is coz of him, when u clearly can stop bitching and just go back to v1.1.2 and enjoy the game as u did.
Again, **** that. I paid for the game, and therefore paid for its updates. I'd rather the developers not **** it up.
That aside......to answer the OP, that's biomes, i dunno y u had it before u updated but maybe the previous minecraft versions have always had it, just not fully implemented or finished?? Anyway with the new update with proper biomes now, u obviously get those depending on the area ur at, some places are deserts where it's obviously dry, so the grass & trees look dried up in those areas. Again, this is NATURAL and i've had it in my game and enjoyed it. Also, places around rivers or lakes look more damp and moist.
Again, it does not look natural at all.
And even if it did, that still wouldn't mean it looked good (which, in most areas, it clearly does not).
Boy, this Zahn fellow sounds like a real douche...
I appreciate that it must be very frustrating for people who want SMP to be as functional as SSP. However, the bottom line is that it has not been promised to happen yet. SMP will work one day but if anyone expected it to work as a result of this update, they were wrong to do so. Their disappointment is of their own making.
Some bugs may have been addressed but this update was never about making SMP fully playable. It was never promised and it never happened. Frustrating, yes, but not unexpected.

You do not need a CREDIT CARD to buy Minecraft. A Debit Card works just fine.
If you open a checking account, you automatically get a Debit Card.
Now go do it.

No, me means negative. Post-Biome save would be after the patch.
If he had said PRE-Biome save, then yes, affirmative would have been correct.
