The game could really use controllable portals.. something that doesn't require going through the nether, even if they're more difficult to make. It'd allow for more expansion, as you could build multiple communities on an MP server without worrying about portal overlap issues, and making fast travel between towns easier.
Well it's possible to get around the portal overlap, it just requires building 2 portals, one in the overworld and one in the nether. Basically you need to link them by hand. The easiest way to do so is build your overland portal, then look at the X/Z values and divide each by 8. Go to those coordinates in the nether and build another portal, should work fine.
On a guild server we've got a room in the nether with a bunch of portals that link to individual people's houses. They're only a few blocks away from each other.
Got lost in the nether... really lost... Mistava warped to me, built a portal, and when we came back out into the normal realm... we were on a *small* island in the middle of the ocean, and the Z value was over 4200...
I started singing tje Gilligan's Island theme song while Mistava got sorted out warping us back to civilization. XD
Oh yah, Biofrost.. there was a few critters in your building, went to investigate / clear out, and got jumped by a creeper. I repaired what I could with what I had on hand and left some wood planks in the chest. Also placed a bunch of torches around to prevent that from happening again. Sorry about that.
You know, if anyone's interested in it, I may be willing to give up my main house to someone else. I can easily build up a proper living area on my tower with all the mined materials I have. Let me know and I'll prep up and clear out.
Got a side of my piston and redstone lighthouse working. Only problem is that I have to start it back up it seems if nobody is either in the area or just not on the server or something.
The invalid server key is a bug with the 1.0 release, the only thing to do is to just restart the client (or switch between texture packs) and keep trying.
so...I watched few clips of 1.9 pr-erelease that has an ender dragon? That can be spawned via golden sword? Or they have their own zen, like a hole in the mountain or something.
yeah you have to find the portal in a stronghold somewhere on the map. You find it by getting a baze rod and combining it with an enderperl, that will act as a compas to the strong hold. Then you have to activate the portal that takes some time.. here ya go Wiki. Would be cool if we get a group of people an start looking for this stuff.
While unable to get on the server I played on single and found a fortress right next to my house - I managed to dig to the portal but got owned by silverfish and lava. :poly141:
xvampire - He dug the pathway one cube deep, placed the stairs facing out along the perimeters, then filled the middle section with half-height slabs. The torch corners are regular cubes.
xvampire - glad someone found the giant knife haha - that part of the map has a huge ocean chunk that cuts off the land in one clean slice so I added a dotted line.

Wall city with walkways? I like the sound of that!

while waiting for the server
Im testing the final v 1.0.0 glsl mod + environment ambient sound mod.
Really like the next textures Eld.
With Zac D's path and the depth of field shader - it could combine to make an eye-exploding mix.
If anyone fancies a quick route to the dragon - I've uploaded my single player just before I went through the portal.
