I've got my minecraft world, I literally have EVERY block obtainable

I've got a farm that yields a stack of bread per harvest, with pumpkins, melons and sugarcane

I've got a cocoa bean farm

I've GOT EVERYTHING

But I still like to potter around my world making buildings and stuff

Yep

It's sitting on a podium in a sealed room with an iron door

Also the new snapshot looks really nice!

[TheCactusman]

I know we knew this was here but it's still amazing.

Has anyone figured out all the new crafting recipes in the new snapshot? I know the cobblestone wall is cobblestone in a fence pattern, and the item frame is eight sticks around a piece of leather (which makes leather even more valuable). Still haven't figured out the wooden button.

Also, maps are really zoomed in now:

It also shows you where you are off the map:

Found clay pot. It's actually a flower pot, made with three bricks in a v shape:

Still working on the wooden button, but I did notice that if you put a map on a item frame, look at it and open your inventory, if you hover over an item the map brightens.

[kylel999]

Oh cool. Clay has a use now!
Also, carrots/potatoes are in!

[editline]23rd August 2012[/editline]

Hm, according to minecraftwiki.net's upcoming features page, carrots (and golden carrots) and potatoes (aswell as baked potatoes and poisonous potatoes) are in, but there's currently no source on it..

[Lyokanthrope]

Is it possible to change the scale of the maps yet? Or mark things on them?

Spawned with modded snapshot

[Jurikuer]

I'm liking the sound of this next update. I won't update to snapshots though, I find it to be too much hassle for its worth. They should make the launcher have an option to automatically update to the latest snapshot and then downgrade for when you want to go online.

[Artix3]

You can clone maps by crafting an "empty map" with a map you already have.

Guys, content updates every week that add significant content?
its like the seeecret friday updates all over again, except buggier and on wednesday.

That new boss looks hot as.

[ElectricSquid]

That Wither mob, I really hope it's something that doesn't actively damage you, but instead takes away hunger or something like that.

Edit: Jesus people, was there specific information regarding what it does that I missed or something?

What the fuck is that

[ralle105]

[QUOTE=Lyoko774;37373133]Is it possible to change the scale of the maps yet? Or mark things on them?[/QUOTE]

You can make the map bigger by putting it in a crafting table and surrounding it with paper. You can do this multiple times.

Every time you do that you use another map ID. I hope they change that, with everyone upgrading maps that could use all the map IDs rather quickly.

What are the two new crops?

Can you shrink it?

Isn't the map limit something like 5,000,000,000?

Thank you for the correction. But still, 65k is more than enough unless you magically have 65k people on a server.

[QUOTE=Jurikuer;37373487]Thank you for the correction. But still, 65k is more than enough unless you magically have 65k people on a server.[/QUOTE]

You can upgrade a map about 5 times, to make it bigger and bigger. My only worry is that if everyone upgraded their map, you couldn't have 65k maps, you could only have 13k maps. And it's not like you can downgrade the size of the maps, so why have unused map IDs?

[Lyokanthrope]

Hmmm.
Can't seem to place item frames.

You can use Migiclauncher for Minecraft. It'll let you specify the amount of memory you'd like Minecraft to use before you launch it, as well as activate mods rather than install them manually

As I agree that unused IDs should be cleared and made available for re-use. 13k maps is MORE than enough for any server.
