[QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;36943459]I tried to change it to glassy before but Minecraft doesn't allow it to have partial transparency. Only certain blocks get that privilege.[/QUOTE] But obsidian isn't transparent either
Spent the last couple of hours making a mob grinder tower, haven't made one in forever, once I was finished I remembered that the system I used no longer works. I had holes in the floor of each level in order to the mobs to fall through, with the improved AI they no longer do this. How do I easily re-purpose a checkerboard hole grinder tower into something useful?

Is there any way to make redpower's repeaters not prolong the signal?
[QUOTE=@jeb_;]So this block will be able to run cmds on redstone signals. With proper commands, many things can be scripted[/quote] [img_thumb]http://i.imgur.com/WHpGr.png[/img_thumb] [quote=@jeb_;]For example, "xp 500 @player" would give the (single-)player 500 enchantment points[/quote] We're going to be getting some awesome adventure maps with 1.3.
is minecraft actualy complete now? i mean, it has an ending and everything but will other blocks and other mobs still be added? also, is there any point to the villigers mobs or do they just walk around?
[QUOTE=_Maverick_;36959230]is minecraft actualy complete now? i mean, it has an ending and everything but will other blocks and other mobs still be added? also, is there any point to the villigers mobs or do they just walk around?[/QUOTE] In 1.3 you'll be able to trade with the villagers. For some reason tekkit is crashing with "unknown character"
[QUOTE=_Maverick_;36959230]is minecraft actualy complete now? i mean, it has an ending and everything but will other blocks and other mobs still be added? also, is there any point to the villigers mobs or do they just walk around?[/QUOTE] Minecraft will continue to get updates for the foreseeable future, adding more blocks. For example, look up. Villager mobs can be used in trading.
Oh god. I started up my server this morning, and instead of the usual messages it started "preparing spawn"... and now my world is gone. We spent so much time there... it was beautiful, and becoming more beautiful by the day. I wasn't done yet! And now everything is just... [B]gone.[/B] Edit: Oh wait no it's not. My backup works fine in singleplayer but I can't figure out how to make my server understand what it's supposed to be running. Well at least now I don't have to dye my hair black and pierce something. Edit: The server created a new world in a [I]photography folder[/I] on my desktop and refuses to read from anywhere else. Why would it do that and also [I]what the fuck?[/I] Edit: Woo I fixed it, big fat props for me.
[QUOTE=DarkMonkey;36954835]But obsidian isn't transparent either[/QUOTE] Not when it's thick, like in block form, no. When it gets thinner though, like maybe knife thickness, it's transparent like smoky glass, and you can also get a pretty sharp blade out of it. If I recall, some stone-age implements utilized obsidian for a cutting edge.

That's where I got the idea for paintings.

Ugh Played Tekkit and needed to go out in the night because of reasons. Ambushed by a horde of zombies and a squad skeletons, dropped dead pretty quick. BAD PART IS I ended up in spawn, and I can't arse myself to go back there and then most of my stuff already being gone. I have coords to a location pretty near and it's more than 2k blocks away. If anyone happens to know how to get back there without walking I'd be grateful

[QUOTE=Confuzzed Otto;36962355]Why do I have a feeling you made that and wanna win the commercial contest[/QUOTE] Not sure. Why do you have that feeling?

Are there mods that change the way monsters spawn or reduces their numbers?
[QUOTE=surfur;36962661]What's that do?[/QUOTE] It's an automated crop farm haha
Since I ran out of ideas on what to do with my egyptian themed map I think I'll just release it publicly to anyone who wants to mess around in it, or simply check it out, I didn't do much in it anyways, but, I had fun building those structures. This is the last touch up I did to the statues infront of the hatshepsut temple: [IMG]http://puu.sh/MfaM[/IMG] The statues now actually look a bit more like animals in contrast to what they used to look like: [img]http://puu.sh/Dhxw[/img]
[QUOTE=TheStabbyBunny;36963467]Are there mods that change the way monsters spawn or reduces their numbers?[/QUOTE] I would like to know about that too. Right now I'm using Special Mobs mod on Vechs Sunburn Islands map and I want more mobs to fight (It's already very challenging, but an increased number of mobs never hurts )

Alternatively, you can use MCedit and move the player to wherever you need to be, and I'd recommend that over the NBTedit method since you get a visual of what and where stuff is.

Is it just an aesthetic thing so that it doesn't look like pipes are randomly floating everywhere?
I didn't know where to ask but My save on the Technic mod won't load properly, the game loads with a black screen with the UI for a couple of seconds and then it says Saving chunks and crashes.
[QUOTE=The mouse;36964931]I didn't know where to ask but My save on the Technic mod won't load properly, the game loads with a black screen with the UI for a couple of seconds and then it says Saving chunks and crashes.[/QUOTE] I don't have much to go on but from my experience with mods, I remember that happening when the cause was a modded block in the world from a previous mod that was either removed or changed significantly, is that technic mod save an old one or is it a fairly new one? I don't use technic pack but they might have removed and/or replaced some mods in their packs. Also, does technic uses the latest forge because if it does you might be able to check the forge error log to trace the error.
[QUOTE=ElectricSquid;36964685] What purpose does the scaffolding serve? Is it just an aesthetic thing so that it doesn't look like pipes are randomly floating everywhere?[/QUOTE] Exactly. Look where this got me. [url]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/17610513/2012-07-28_01.53.50.png[/url]
