Quintinity posted a message on [1.8+] Game Mode SwitcherPosted in: Minecraft ToolsGame Mode Switcherby Quintinity
So, today my little brother decided to make a puzzle map using the new Creative mode. However, after he made his, he released that he couldn't play it in Survival mode. This upset him greatly, so I decided to make a solution and create a program that switches your world's game mode. The program has a nice, simple interface, and it's easy to use. I realise that there probably are in-game mods that do this, however some people don't know how to install mods or they don't feel comfortable using them.
The Clear Inventory option lets you pick whether or not you want to clear your inventory after you switch game modes. Useful if you don't want the infinite items from Creative in your Survival map.
Instructions:
- Download the program from the link below.
- Save your world and close Minecraft
- Run the program and click the "Browse" button
- Pick the world your want to change and select it's "level.dat" file
- Pick which game mode you want and click "Save"
- Play Minecraft!

Elusivehawk posted a message on [1.0.0] [WIP] The Nostalgia FactorPosted in: WIP ModsPlease note that I'm still editing this page in order to update now outdated info.Are you an Alphabro who always posts on how you miss the good old days of Alpha, and how the game was fun? Or are you a more recent player who just wanted to see what the game looked like before you even knew of Minecraft? Well, you are not alone. Not even close to alone. There are hundreds of thousands of players who think this way.
This mod has finally reached a Public Alpha stage! Download the latest version here (1.0.0 ONLY), and report some bugs to help us get a release out quicker!
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
(Please take note that this thread was originally created as a mod request)
Main Post
So ever since Alpha 1.2.0 when the terrain generation was altered (and in my opinion, screwed up), I've wanted the classic Alpha terrain with the current version's features. In December '10, I was happy to see MCNostalgia, as it allowed me to play Alpha 1.1.2_01, which had what was my favorite terrain generator. I loved it, but the loss of current features and the heavy presence of bugs kept me from staying there.
My SolutionI am requesting a mod that allows for users to change the Minecraft version that it generates terrain from, and that being the only thing that changes; gameplay, items, blocks, ect will all be as of the client's version.
I am fully aware of the mods out there that do this by changing all worlds made to preHalloween Alpha, but the reason I am calling for this mod is for extreme convenience and flexibility.
I propose that the terrain type would be set upon creation of a new world, as shown here:
These are the versions you can choose from
- Alpha 1.1.2_01 (3rd gen Terrain)
- Beta 1.1_02 (4th gen Terrain w/o new trees)
- Beta 1.7.3 (4th gen Terrain w/ new trees)
- Beta 1.8.1 (5th gen Terrain w/o snow biomes)
- Minecraft 1.0 (5th gen Terrain w/ snow biomes)
Remember, a built in way to customize which seed a world generates from was added in Beta 1.3, so this mod would allow for 1st through 3rd gen terrain to be made from specific seeds; this is something that backdating your client can't do.
"Now wait, why the hell would people want old terrain? Older obviously means worse."The new terrain just sucks. Once you have seen what a biome looks like, you've seen them all. Forests, swamps, deserts, taigas, grasslands, and tundras are flat as hell. Mountains are cool, but they are very difficult on gameplay as it takes 5 minutes to find a single tree. The underwater terrain is just this hodge-podge of dirt and sand, and looks extremely ugly. Swamps' coloring looks cool when you are in it, but the sudden boundaries of dark to light grass looks retarded.
(Those links are giving you a hint; thousands of people are reaching the same conclusions)
Now, 3rd gen terrain was based on 3D Perlin noise and created these very dynamic and visually appealing terrain. A new world felt new, and you really don't know what you are going to get, compared to now, a biome makes it extraordinarily obvious what the terrain is going to look like. 4th gen terrain lessened the extremity of the terrain, but was still random, and biomes were just an add on and did not affect the terrain as much as they do now.
Take a look at this video that has 3rd gen terrain of Alpha 1.1.2_01. 3rd gen worlds will generate cool terrain like this in almost all times you made a new world.
People who complain that new Minecraft sucks and how Alpha was epic are usually only miss the terrain generator; they played the game for a sense of fantasy and light-hearted gameplay, not this new dark and demanding game that has come of. This mod will be able to shut those people up for good, combining the new version with old terrain, and in combination with a texture pack, can make these guys love playing Minecraft again.
I backdated my client for the fun of it to play some mid Alpha, and after only 6 tries for an epic world, this is what I got. This is why I love Alpha.
Make this mod!!!
"I know how to mod, but what's in it for me?"If you make the mod and do a good job with the design and promotion, you could later rewrite it to allow custom imput of terrain. Then other mods will use your mod (Similar to what happened with Risugami's ModLoader) which will really push you high into the modding community.
Also refraining from making this mod because you don't actually have backups of the generation code? Well MCNostalgia will allow you to revert your game to these versions and just go from there.
Still not convinced this is worth your modding time and effort?There is a person out there who is walking to the Far Lands (Kurtjmac), and he is stuck with using 1.7.3 because the Far Lands were removed in 1.8. As time goes on, he will be stuck with using this old version while the Minecraft community passes him by, so by making this mod, you will allow him to generate pre1.8 terrain with the newest gameplay aspects, spicing up the videos for more enjoyment on his part, and others'. So please, someone create this mod, after all, Kurt is doing it for charity (and has already raised $11,000!).
"Ok, I'm up for the job. What exactly should this mod include?"
Necessities
- An entry in the level.dat file for each world that defines which terrain to generate from (of the 5 I have bulleted above.
- New worlds: Chosen via a button in the picture above.during world creation
- Old worlds: If it is the first time an existing world has been used with this mod, prompt which terrain it was generated with
- The exact same terrain
- Players should be able to take a 1.7 world and set to 1.7.3 terrain generator, and upon entering new chunks, there should not be a chunk border, even if the new terrain is in the same style.
- Restore old functionality
- No tall grass until Beta 1.6, so Alpha 1.1.2_01 and Beta 1.1_02 worlds must be able to use hoes on grass for seeds. Optional
- The currently unused World Type button could be used on Alpha 1.1.2_01 maps upon world creation to generate between a regular world and a snow world.
- Add in 1st gen (Classic) and 2nd gen (/indev/) to the version selections. This is optional because these generation code were written for finite maps and may or may not be possible, or time consuming to adapt to the infinite terrain. 2nd gen worlds will allow the World Type button to chose from:
- Island (Survival island type style map, infinite ocean beyond the one island)
- Inland (Just continuous map of inland terrain)
- Flatgrass (This is useful as hell nowadays)
- Floating (Creates a new challenge and is really cool)
- Strongholds should be generated in pre1.8 worlds, in such a way that does not alter

"I'm not a modder, but I really like this idea!"Well this topic has about 50,000 views, which is really amazing, but still there are thousands of people who would love this mod but do not know about it. The use of the signature I made really draws people in, like you, to see this topic.
I put it as my signature for a month and regularly posted on the Survival Forum, and brought in 2,000 views. Two weeks later after I allowed others to use the sig, this topic has reached 7,000 views. After a month, we're up to 27,000. Just imagine if another hundred people used this sig for a month.

bluemagic123 posted a message on A good superflat survival seed, with no exploration requiredIn a superflat world with generate structures on, this seed will spawn you right next to an NPC village. It has everything you need to survive. There are two blacksmiths with enough iron ingots for a bucket, so you can make a cobblestone generator. There are also saplings so you can generate wood. Throughout the village, there are three lampposts (with wool on top) so you can make a bed, so you don't have to worry about dying (unless you play hardcore). In addition, there is a second village. There is an easy way to move between them: First find the tavern in whatever village you're in. Then, go to the side of the tavern with the backyard thing. Face away from the tavern, then walk away. In a very short time, you should arrive at the second village, with a lot of iron ingots. All these resources with no exploration required give you an easy start!Posted in: Seeds
The seed is: im tired of trying seeds
Here is what you get from the first village:
Here are the items from the second village:
1 iron legging
2 bread
6 apples
14 iron ingots :ohmy.gif:
1 iron sword
3 gold ingots
7 saplings
1 iron pickaxe
3 diamonds
That's a lot of ingots and saplings in total! However, if you really want obsidian or more diamonds, you'll have to find another village. But those are supposed to be rare anyways. Still, if you find obsidian, tell me! If you do manage to get enough obsidian from chests or lava, then if you build a portal 40 blocks above the spawn point, you should appear in or near a nether fortress.
This seed is perfect for those who want to survive in superflat but don't want to explore endless flat terrain for enough resources. -

user-7022358 posted a message on Spelunking tipsPosted in: Survival ModeQuote from KagamineBen1337
Here are some of my tips:
Don't post things that everybody already knows.
Use stone tools unless you have an ungodly amount of iron.
Put torches on the right-hand wall.
Not one for taking your own advice eh? xD
Strangely, I always put the torches on the left-hand side when I'm going in. I use iron once I'm past the beginning stage of the survival process and practically never have to resort to using stone unless I make lots of iron stuff I don't need at that point (which is kinda silly). My additional tips would prolly be:
- Always be wary of entrances high up where mobs can drop from.
- Light up first, then mine ores.
- When you find diamonds, ensure you are secure before mining them and mine them carefully following the Mining rules of thumb.
- Follow the Mining rules of thumb (Don't mine straight up/down etc)
- In complex caves/mine shaft systems, always use some sort of additional marker for paths leading out BESIDES the usual ones. -

McNebula posted a message on Tips for finding diamonds!"I apologize if this thread is in the wrong section, if so, please move it somewhere that is suitable"Posted in: Survival Mode
I only have 4 tips for you finding diamonds... sorry about that..
My tips work for me, but I don't know if it works for you xD
I did not copy this tips from anywhere, I made it,
Okay, while following my tips, i found a total number of 56 diamonds. Here it goes!
Things needed: 4-5 Iron Pickaxes, A Bucket of Water (Incase if you fall into lava), Full Stack of torches, Flint and steel (For Bombing xD) andTnts!
We all know that Diamonds can be found on layer 16 and below.
1)You can mostly find diamonds near lava.
2)Make sure you mine a big shaft/tunnel
3)And the most greatest tip (for me) is that Diamonds can be found among other ores! So make sure you mine above, under left and right the ores
4)If this tip doesn't work, then try BLOWING UP!! the place with tnts. But make sure you place the tnt in the correct place. Trust your instinct :smile.gif:
(Not so good tip :sad.gif: )
I Hope you like my tips!
If it works, you might wanna give me a green plus right in the bottom right corner :smile.gif:
Happy Mining :biggrin.gif:
Tips from other fellow people :biggrin.gif: (Give them a green plus if it works) :biggrin.gif:
Quote from KangaWk
Tnt removes most of the drops, so you just end up with a hole. Basically if you're using Tnt, you're losing potential diamonds.
Quote from napero7only tip there is, is that you should mine around level 12 or so.
Quote from ThePsyborg
The best tip for finding diamonds is, dum dum dum duuum! Branch Mining.
I've only made one serious branch mine so far, but I found... I think it was about 15 diamonds fairly quickly. I also found a ton of redstone, iron, coal, gold and lapis. What it does is that instead of making a big hole to find ore, you make tunnels quite close to eachother to eliminate almost every possibility that ore will not be visible in at least one tunnel. Works like a charm, it's structured and it looks good.
Happy mining :smile.gif:
Quote from Pikkachu
Yes, branch mining is great!! :smile.gif:
in about 5 minutes of branch mining i got 4 diamond!! =DD
