Flaagan: I take it you've turned down your viewing distance already? either in options or by pressing f which toggles through the different settings. It crashes for me (and basically everyone) on the highest setting.
Imagine it's Post-Halloween-update. All multiplayer bugs are fixed.
Do you guys want the server to stay the way it is now? As in: Hugbox, no damage, no mobs, no durability mode? Or do you want survival multiplayer? I'm assuming there's going to be a split between the minecraft population. A lot of people are probably going to want to play that kind of low stakes multi where they can build whatever they want. So, what do you guys want?
I personally really want survival, it's way more fun for me. It would make coordinating with other people a lot more important. It would give me something to do and make the experience of playing multi more interesting. Also hopefully we can have a non-snow level and a spawn that is on land.
I hear you on the survival server. I think it would be pretty cool to make hunting parties and defenses as a team. I just recently got a few of my buddies into minecraft and one of them created a local server. We played for a few hours but once survival is fixed... We will probably be on it non-stop!
I got Minecraft last night...I didn't go to sleep until 11am this morning. This is CRACK. I scoffed at people who played it in the past, but man...I totally understand it now. I love this game.
I find freebuild to be super boring after like 30 mins. It's just a really tedious level editor and if the server ever wipes or resets you just lose hours of work and feel stupid. Plus, you can find hundreds of servers like that already, and people who want to do really crazy buildings are better served using offline third party level editors anyways.
Survival all the way. Reset that sucker and crank up the difficulty.
we could even go as far as finding some neat SP save with awesome topography and use that to generate the MP terrain. the level.dat holds the terrain seed and with it in an empty world folder it will generate the same terrain every time. just need to empty the inventory, as that will be saved in there as well .
im rather certain that survival on the server will at least be put to a test and if there arent enough people who enjoy it, the current world can always be reloaded. unless someone deletes it
Jumped on, cranked the draw distance to lowest, had fog on to medium, seemed to work ok. Didn't really remember what direction I was looking to build...
Accidentally hit F key, and it crashed again... lame.
It has to be really. Anyway. Once areas are cleared and we get some lanterns up it will be enemy free(ish). So the builder will be able to build, miners can mine and hunters can hunt. I think its the best way to please everyone imo.
In SP Survival I built a tunnel from my post-death spawn point back to my crib. Makes battling at night a lot less stressful!
I also plan to carry a box around with me, drop my gear in there if I get ambushed then, hopefully, it'll still be there - no matter how long I leave it. MUAHahahahahahaa.
Does anyone know how to get multiple character skins to appear in your game? I painted a knight skin but everyone that is on the server has the skin applied to them? Is there a way or is everyone gonna be apart of my holy crusade?
Does the polycount server have the Set Spawn command active. I read somewhere that if you type /setspawn or something like that. It sets your current position as your spawn point. Rather than the default spawn. I dont want to test it just yet as I've travelled quite a distance from spawn and I dont want to end up there just yet.

OK. Since im now allowed back on the server. I thought I'd make something a little more epic than a cobble cock.
Heres a WIP. Tribute to Tombraider. I had to dig all of this out as I started digging in probably the only area on the map without natural voids. I wish I could have made this of sand aswell but it cant be done
I challenge thee! make a game tribute in Minecraft!

I like the underground temple look you got going here
Its meant to be the Sphynx from tombraider. A most memorable level in my youth. Probably one of my top ten gaming moments. A few other tombraider moments are in top ten as well. Like the 2 massive statues underwater...Epic stuff
Ok. Im just gonna put this out there. I think it would be cool to make something as a community rather than random buildings going up everywhere on the server. Something massive and clearly visible from the map viewer. I've got tons of cobble to get started. Heres a few ideas.
1. Something from film. (LOTR examples)
2. All of the 7 wonders
3. A Colosseum
4. Halo Beam building
5. Temple of Petra
6. The Parthenon
Any takers?
p.s. I know the server might be changing at halloween. So whatever we make might be lost after that. But it'll still be cool to do. Maybe we could use this as a practice run.
It has been fun for the last three days. I was making a shop as it has always been one of my fantasies funny enough and accidently flooded it. I then got flashbacks of Zelda Majora's Mask and the shop that's got a swamp in it.
So I dug and dug and what do you know? A fricken huge water tunnel was made. So I continued digging and decided, you know what? I need to test this.
So I make a boat, quickly jump in as the current is fast and as I approach the corner...BAM, I hit the wall and my boat explodes.
Fail...Still I carried on cause it's something nice to explore and look at. If anyone wants to try and fix it by all means, feel free.
Im working on a "hub" building that I want to connect a bunch of roads/pathways/mines to, its a giant cylinder building next to the spawn. I realize now that I should of made it bigger so the space between floors could be a tile taller, but I'm not sure how I feel about the floor/stair set up, what do you guys think.
Just something I wanted to clarification since the free one on the site didnt tell me much and seems I had infinite blocks. If say i was to go and mess around with making creations in single player would that equal hard because I would need to mine everything or is it easier just to host your own server? Only thing with servers is I dont know if they auto update which equal losing your creation/ starting over.

It's harder in SP, but definitely play it. There's more features and it's more fun. Having to work your way up from wood to diamond and mining solo while avoiding mobs is extremely rewarding.

thanks Frump. Wow reading my comment and I must have been drunk
Heh. I've actually been playing as the White Ranger for a while. We should get a whole team of PC rangers, lol. I made it originally as a request from someone on the minecraft forum.
How do people do the floating alpha hair? I wanted to extend hellboys horns a bit.
Theres a hat and face area in the png that allows alpha, I just found this skin editor which allows you to edit the texture and view the model while you do it. Very handy.

You can make a compass that points back at the spawn point.

Whoever built the spead eagle house where you enter in through the vagina... GENIUS! Haha. The treehouse dungeon thing is awesome as well.
