Also, I put 5 minecarts in a launcher, went for a ride towards skyscraper and got stuck in the edge of the world.

Spawned back home and all 5 carts were gone.

Buggy as hell now :(

Looks like blocks placed cannot be destroyed either. Ah well.. guess we wait for another update to fix all of this :/

Adisharr: 10 yards too short. :eek:


But I am working on it. :)

If I get a chance to come on later I'll chip in :)

James, any chance you could fill my chests with iron blocks EAST of your tower?

Building some large scale columns there, and I really don't feel like mining all of that. :p

While you're at it, I need probably at least 30 stacks of cloth (item #35) which you could put in the same general location. :)

I'll give you all the cloth you want, and then give everybody else flint&steel. :p

Update:

If you haven't yet, check out dejarin's stadium, and fuuian's cathedral. Both are extremely impressive.

I have created roads to each from the skyscraper, and each road has signs indicating what leads where.

Oh James... ANSWER MY PM! lol

thanks for the path james :)

still chugging along with the damn cathedral. been busy with school though.

Sorry for the lack of contact.

Wurm, YGPM.

Unknown host error?

darksavior.net

I'm getting that, too. :eek:

Yeah.... As of about 24-48 hours ago, I'm suddenly not able to resolve darksavior.net either. Didn't really pay it any mind as it was only happening on a Comcast connection, but now it seems pervasive.

Not sure what the problem is, as no DNS has changed. In the meantime, you can use:

Spoiler

This was an IP address

**UPDATE** Should be working without issue now. Turns out that after upgrading the server, all of my named.conf zone entries had been moved, and were running in a cached file, once the file was re-read, everything went to hell because the zones were no longer there. Re-added them and reloaded the DNS server. Everything is quick and proper now.

I saw a new person show up when I was afk earlier. :)

* Add “pvp” toggle flag to the server settings: NOT STARTED.

Oh. Man. FORTRESS WARS!?

Been working on my castle for a while now. The facade is complete with hollow walls and 3 levels in the walls. The inside of the castle has a spiral staircase to my arboretum and behind that is the keep made out of stone and glass and wood flooring. Still got a bunch of stuff to do, like leveling the entire hill-top to make this thing really stand out and then once all of the above ground stuff is done its time to move to the underground levels and start expanding those. Total work up til now would be around 20 hours.

Well, we'll keep an eye out. Man, I don't know if I like PvP in minecraft. Unless I can Rocket Jump using Lava or something. ;)

Man lanterns are gonna suck. It appears that you need lightstone to craft them and only place to get lightstone is in the nether dimension. Easy lighting makes this game carefree, you just put some stick and coal together and presto, infinite lighting, without the ease its gonna be a pain to jump into the nether to get some stone. Blaaah.

I look forward to the increase in difficulty as a result of this craziness.

Lanterns sounds like a huge PITA.

Not sure how i feel about the lanterns yet.

To make them, you need lightstone.

To get lightstone you need obsidian

To get obsidian you have to dig deep enough to mine it or find a supply of lava and water in which to create it.

To dig deep enough you have to light your way with torches.



Not really a big issue for people who are already have basis and gear, but yeah quite a new challenge for those starting a fresh game.

Depth has nothing to do with obsidian, outside of lava being easier to find at lower depths. Obsidian is only found naturally when water is generated in a spot where it can flow over a generated lava source block.

And no one has any idea yet how long the torches will last. It could be days.

Timing out on login for me today. :(
