Can I ask how you guys found the place? I'm assuming it was X-Ray, but did you travel through the Nether portal that someone else made, or what?

Did you seriously destroy it all? And I hope you enjoyed it there, I worked hard on it. I think it's the last of the long-standing bases, it's been going for a couple of months.
I swear, though, I am going to kill you with a tractor and a pasty :v:

Well, now that my base has been destroyed, I'm going to live differently. Either I travel to 1,000,000 and make a base, or I hide all my rare things in a chest fairly near spawn (but hidden) and then go on a quest to find bases and kill people.

It's not destroyed, the torches were just destroyed. I'll remove the coords from the post if you want.
Please do, I want to see it all first. Then when I've said goodbye and placed some signs, you can put it back up.

I hate you two so much.
Fucking finally I made it to Aria.
I'm really sad how XRay makes it so hard to hide shit... You can't have a hidden chest, or hidden beds, so your only chance of escape is to go further out than they'd want to walk.
You can have a hidden chest. Just make sure it's surrounded from all sides by other blocks.
[QUOTE=FunnyBunny;31356784]You can have a hidden chest. Just make sure it's surrounded from all sides by other blocks.
[editline]26th July 2011[/editline]
The premise of Xray is it only loads blocks that are visible (ie. They have air/water/lava next to them, or items that don't take up the whole complete block like a bed or a mushroom or redstone, you get the idea.) As long as you surround your chest from all sides with blocks, it won't be x-rayable.[/QUOTE]
People with x-ray can change which blocks to make visible/invisible, so they can see through anything they want very easily. Even covering a chest or a base completely in lava doesn't necessarily work since with x-ray you can turn lava to be invisible.

Consider yourself free of my wrath, then.
Good riddance!

Yeah, that's what I said. If it's covered from all sides by [B]blocks[/B] then you won't see it in xray.

then the x-rayer can just turn whatever blocks you surrounded your base with to be invisible
[QUOTE=IdiotStorm;31358235]then the x-rayer can just turn whatever blocks you surrounded your base with to be invisible[/QUOTE]
I'm pretty sure it can't be done since minecraft only renders blocks that are exposed. That is why you don't see every single block in the ground, only ones that are exposed to air/liquid (caves for instance). Transparency is not a factor when it comes to even loading those blocks at all, something a texture pack can't override.
cover it in mossy cobble
x-rays don't usually look through that

It doesn't have to be mossy cobble, it can by anything. [B]Minecraft will not render any blocks that are being covered up by other blocks from all 6 sides.[/B]

In one mod, there is a feature that highlights ores through walls. You can configure this to highlight any block, such as chests. So there is no way to hide chests, even if its surrounded in blocks.

Downloaded an X-ray to test this out with a glass block surrounded by cobble

It doesn't work with glass because it is a special type of block. Glass is transparent, meaning you can see other blocks through it. Therefore, the game treats glass like air and still loads it, and the blocks around it. You'll find the same error with the beds, torches, redstone, and other blocks that don't take up the entire block or are transparent to some degree.

By the way, what xray did you use? Mine doesn't show the ore deposits, it just shows the stuff that's next to air:

Ooooooh
see you're using a texture pack
the one I found was a mod
[img]http://gyazo.com/ee6efabee00ac95c769bf862c566185e.png[/img]
That's a piece of iron, surrounded on all 6 sides. And I could configure it to show whatever I want. I can also find hollow places underground with it.
Pretty much the only way to escape xrayers is to go really far out.

It's minecraft. You can modify the renderer if you want.
But yes, the ore highlighter can be made to highlight chests.
Even if they're completely surrounded.

I thought that the argument was over xray packs, but mods completely leave you exposed I guess :suicide:
