A pretty basic description of minecraft: [url]http://www.facepunch.com/threads/1062777-How2Minecraft-A-tutorial[/url]. Just post help here instead of useless clutter. I need help too, I forwarded my ports and my server wont allow connections.
Do you use the right IP? If you have a dynamic IP you may need to give out a new one.
I can barely make out coal from regular cobblestone. Any tips on helping me 'see' it better? [editline]23rd February 2011[/editline] I know coal has these little black specks in them but it's not enough for me honestly.
[QUOTE=acfan;28230969]I can barely make out coal from regular cobblestone. Any tips on helping me 'see' it better?[/QUOTE] Get a better monitor/texture pack?
Get a better texture pack? Common sense really.

What kind of monitor are you using? [QUOTE=coolity;28230942]Just post help here instead of useless clutter.

I have a problem, when I host a server just for me and my mate, the world loads SUPER slow, but it doesn't seem to have real lag. I've forwarded ports obviously (he can join).

[QUOTE=zeebiedeebie;28230986]Cobble looks WAY different from coal. What kind of monitor are you using?[/QUOTE] I think I used the wrong word. I can't make it out from gravel. Still new to this game, I apologize. And my monitor is fine.

[QUOTE=acfan;28231015]I think I used the wrong word. I can't make it out from gravel. Still new to this game, I apologize. And my monitor is fine.[/QUOTE] Oh! Yeah, gravel and cobblestone look fairly similar. If you look closely you'll see that cobblestone's many dots denote individual large stones, while gravel has a purple tint. Does that help?
[QUOTE=zeebiedeebie;28231026]How long does that happen for? Minecraft has a lot of java overhead which really slows things down for about 3 minutes while the world generates.[/QUOTE] I'm not entirely sure, I join, it loads super slow, I stick around for a couple of minutes, still very slow, then I'll leave and rejoin, still slow. Then I give up. But I'll try again now, and wait a while, see how it goes.

If it doesnt work, try using Hamatchi with you and a friend to see if its the ports or something else.

[QUOTE=coolity;28231148]25565, it worked before I rebooted my router.[/QUOTE] I get that problem too. My LAN IP changes, so I have to forward the port to another IP sometimes.

[QUOTE=coolity;28231218]Where in it in control panel?[/QUOTE] Network and Sharing Center, open the connection you're on and click the Details button. IPv4 address or whatever.
[QUOTE=xDrTran;28231246]Network and Sharing Center, open the connection you're on and click the Details button. IPv4 address or whatever.[/QUOTE] I forwarded it and it still wont work. :smith:
[QUOTE=coolity;28231298]I forwarded it and it still wont work. :smith:[/QUOTE] Forward TO that IP, don't forward the IP. :D
When you forward you forward it [i]TO[/i] that IP, not the IP itself :buddy: btw the ipconfig just shows your local ip FFS ninja again edit: try it from a different computer? content: What are the minimum requirements for a Minecraft server? 5-10 people, optimal quality, little lag etc..
