No need. It's just sitting on a box for me. I may delete it at some indeterminate point several years from now, but trashing TV shows/movies I don't care about anymore frees up a lot more space if I need it.
We'd always love to have you back on the server, dude. Thanks for the download!
I've played minecraft three or four times in the last 15 or 18 months. Each time I've logged on I tinkered around with a random gadget for an hour or so before getting bored. I think I might really be done with the game at this point.
The newest versions break a lot of fun mechanics and add almost nothing that I'm interested in. The removal of permanent chunk loading in particular breaks literally everything. I was debating asking for a whitelist and setting up a smallscale automated concrete factory (~9k of any color of concrete powder or concrete per hour (and/or sand/dragon eggs), but the logistics without easily automated permanent chunkloading get majorly cancerous, or require an afk account. You need autosave detectors and a way to zero tick stop the system or it will literally rip itself apart when it's reloaded every time the game exits an autosave cycle.
OK fine, so you make autosave detectors and turn a mostly passive 5x5 chunk system into a sprawling mess of detectors and reloaders. But wait. Chunk loading is straight up gone in 1.14. I mean, you can make it a lot simpler and just have a manual selector system where someone afks until they get the blocks they want, but I wanted it to independently select the block types to produce and automagically fill up a chest array around spawn. Hell, I even have a fully working balance system for the storage so that you can detect what colors you have the least of and produce those first rather than just filling up one color than the next iteratively. It's loosely based off the sprawling NORgate monstrosity I used in the iron farm.
I mean, imagine this. Need 100,000 concrete for a project? No problem, hit spawn, grab what you want, and it'd replenish itself overnight. Too bad, fuck you. Can't do it anymore.
There's some neat stuff like composters (which are rather useless if we're being completely honest because of how massive of a farm you need to sustain any reasonable output), but things like 50 million types of fish, kelp, etc aren't really interesting to me, and aren't really that useful.
Yeah chunkloading being removed is an open casket for logistics and production to fall in and has broadly limited the horizon for redstoners. The whole minecraft world is your oyster now but in the next update the whole world might as well be your render distance.
They still haven't addressed the fact that duping tnt is the only way to get a mobile version of tnt and its not like its difficult to program in movable dispensers ffs. tnt isn't even all that difficult to get its just you can't get deploy it in a controlled, convenient or timely fashion with flying machines without duping.
Uploaded the old map to Mega if anyone doesn't want to bother with torrents MEGA
Powered rails don't do this, so if you can build around the limitations of rail, you can at least make lag friendly machines.
At least static stuff doesn't generate lag, so big sorting arrays and such that just have passive redstone won't consume much of anything.
@Pretender uploaded it on mega yesterday.
Even worse, random ticks are broken as fuck and only happen very close to you. From what I've read about 1.14, even the spawn chunks don't get random ticked anymore, so you can't leave passive things like a cactus farm operating anymore.
I think they fixed it, but for a while in the snapshots, the new subchunk system also prevented mobs 32 or more blocks below you from being ticked at all because the subchunks were treated as lazy chunks. That meant that the mobs wouldn't despawn, but still counted towards the mob cap. I think that's been fixed, but they're clearly trying to add much more aggressive culling for resources, and anything technical is getting destroyed as a result.

I'd like to vouch for my non-FP friend IGN: MagicianNC
I believe he has been whitelisted for the old server/map as well.
I don't think I've had a proper play of minecraft since Goose's old factions server. Can I please be added to the whitelist?

Okay, so I finished the path from the west tp. Ended up connecting to the road from Port Chestnut, I hope that's okay.

I tried to make it blend in nicely.

Def recommend exploring the path, a lot of love went into it. That being said, bring supplies. It's a long ass road (though there are several villages on the way, one partally abandoned) and a couple I haven't connected yet. Some of the villages recieved names, others did not. If you want to expand, build upon or along, or name anything, be my guest! I'd love to see some development along the way and spread 'society' along the path. That'd be cool.
I plan on building a little town somewhere along the line at some point, but we'll see how far that project gets.
Also, as of now, on the left, there is a signpost (not pictured) that points out the direction to Spawn and Fulcrumvilla, respectively.
I just walked down the entire path for the heck of it. Love how you just went straight through trees at times. Seriously though, awesome work. Love all the building you made on the way, bridges, tunnels, and such. Kinda sad when I found the end honestly.

Hahaha the end was Porter, actually.
That path was made over two weeks to a shipwreck I was really excited to get to the treasure of, only to find out it was already looted when I got there so....
.. now you know how I feel. lol
That being said, I'm not really sure where it should go. But I'm open to ideas.
There's this Savanna island that falls exactly at the west world border. Would be cool to make it lead there and create some island town perhaps?

Come to our east archipelago in the tropical islands biome
Where at? I'm always up for a new project

I built a one-way rail system from east teleport that takes you there! The big island that the red arrow is pointing to is where my home is located!
Been having that Minecraft itch again and none of my friends ever want to touch the game again. Would be cool to play with others that also like buildings stuff, could I get added to that whitelist too?

There doesn't seem to be any other MC thread (except a 4 month old one with no replies) so I'm gonna ask here
Trying to play a nostalgic but hard game of minecraft, any suggestions for mods? I'd like the environment to be harder, the worldgen more interesting, and just make it hard without feeling frustrating
I wanna remember hiding in my crappy shacks while the night went by, I want to hear the cavern groan and echo and fear the dark
Also, people play java version right? I assume the bedrock version doesn't have the mod support of the original
I'm playing through Twilight Forest right now and it's pretty fun. It's a dimension mod.
I recommend Biomes O' Plenty for some cool worldgen.
Those are the two mods I was going to recommend. If you want more mobs as well, Lycanites Mobs really ups the difficulty.
Alright I'll give those a try, thanks. I remember The Aether, when it got released, was one of the first huge mods. Is that still worth trying?
Additionally, where do you look at mods? The forums? There seem to be so many websites now
Here: https://minecraft.curseforge.com/mc-mods
Any way to make a redstone circuit that triggers when you break a torch?
The only way I can think of would be with an observer but you'd obviously see an observer facing towards the torch...
you should be able to get a redstone signal off of the block the torch is
A regular torch, not a redstone torch
Gauging interest for a new MAX NO RELAX server.... (death is week ban)
I've been wanting to start one, but have no idea how to set it up.
Also, you're already whitelisted.
So, I've never actually gotten onto the server because setting up the whole shebang with the twitch launcher was just too daunting
