Minecraft Thread V11 - Pickaxe me a question, I dare you - Games

[QUOTE=layla;22333047]What would be the point? Why not just play Minecraft?[/QUOTE] The point is you can epxlore the map freely without the pesky limitations of collisions and other non exploration time items.

Server up. [url]http://www.minecraft.net/play.jsp?server=2e6ce7b7b1ebf6a77afb494f156dc162[/url] Can't be on myself though, I'm sick.

[QUOTE=Robert64;22332662]I took a slice out from where I had already dug a lot of tunnels and overlayed the ores map with only blue filtered. Now I can easily mine towards each diamond vein and cross them out in red when I get them. [IMG]http://i45.tinypic.com/v5e5jt.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] How do you filter with the version linked in the OP? And how do you know what slice you're at.

[QUOTE=Crimor;22340748]How do you filter with the version linked in the OP? And how do you know what slice you're at.[/QUOTE] I knew I was 2 levels above lava so I it was easy enough to find the right slice. I filtred out the other colours with Fireworks by setting the Red and Green parts of the spectra to be black.

[QUOTE=Crimor;22340748]And how do you know what slice you're at.[/QUOTE] Well, there are two things you can do: 1. Look for your building on the map 2. Mark your space with a 7x7 square of dirt at the highest level below the clouds

[QUOTE=iPope;22340478]The point is you can epxlore the map freely without the pesky limitations of collisions and other non exploration time items.[/QUOTE] Well I'm half done writing a NBT loader/saver ([url]http://www.minecraft.net/docs/NBT.txt[/url]) if it's worth my time i'll strip my game down and make a map editor for indev/infdev.

I built my base in a cliff so it is hard to find in the cartographer

[QUOTE=jlj1;22341917]I built my base in a cliff so it is hard to find in the cartographer[/QUOTE] make a marker at the top of the cliff like a large square of wood or just write BASE HERE outside

[url]http://notch.tumblr.com/post/659506746/asynchronous-saving-and-loading-and-slightly-more[/url] He is doing doors, furniture such as chairs, and ladders. along with the aforementioned signs, the next update will be sweet. also a new way it saves and loads, to help slowdown issues.

Hell yeah, updates like this give me hope on multiplayer infdev again!

and there was much rejoicing

Ladders would mean that you can use more space in towers for actual useful stuff instead of lots of the floorspace being dedicated to stairs :hfive:

[QUOTE=DireAvenger;22342173]LADDERRRSSS YEEESSSSS Hopefully they'll attach to walls and stuff like torches, rather than being giant pillars of annoy.[/QUOTE] he just said in that post you linked that he made decorations entities instead of blocks

:aaaaa: Notch FTW.

Ladders Will be great it Will make mining more pleasant

[QUOTE=Tampong;22344127]Ladders Will be great it Will make mining more pleasant[/QUOTE] Yeah and you Will stop typing Will with capital letters or I Will kill you

Yay live minecraft streams!

I bet hes typing with a mobile device that thinks will is a proper noun so it capitalizes the w.

Wait were signs actually implemented yet?

[QUOTE=Dlaor;22344620]Yeah and you Will stop typing Will with capital letters or I Will kill you[/QUOTE] Dr McNinja is correct! Sorry my phone auto corrects that, but i will change it now!

[QUOTE=Hemorrhoid_Man;22345680]Wait were signs actually implemented yet?[/QUOTE] According to the blog, he's going to make them craftable. So not yet.

Still waiting for mine carts.

[QUOTE=BANNED USER;22345855]Still waiting for mine carts.[/QUOTE] Bro, Minecraft has no plans for mining carts. But ladders? Genius. EDIT: Disagrees? Does Notch really have plans to add Mine Carts? Or are ladders not genius?

I want fences that only uses a tiny bit of space on the block and is places at the edges of blocks, like to stop you from falling over a ledge or stopping fucking sheep to get in.

[QUOTE=Crimor;22346241]I want fences that only uses a tiny bit of space on the block and is places at the edges of blocks, like to stop you from falling over a ledge or stopping fucking sheep to get in.[/QUOTE] That's a neat idea, but I would imagine it would be hard to implement. Also, sheep will spawn in your base if it has enough light anyway.

Still waiting for multiplayer Infdev.

[QUOTE=Beetle179;22346188]Bro, Minecraft has no plans for mining carts. But ladders? Genius.[/QUOTE] Mine carts will be brilliant... Make a small track to a rock deposit it your main house, waiting to put it in a large chest, make mining much more efficient
