A friend on FP gifted me Minecraft yesterday, my first singleplayer game was terrible and I didn't even survive the first night. My second save though, well, it was a snow map and I've got this fairly expansive place with tunnels going all over the map, and this incredibly long tunnel that goes to the frozen ocean so I can get sand for glass, I'm in the process of minecarting it and I've gone through 128 tracks and I havn't even made it halfway. :saddowns: It's probably not much of an accomplishment for you guys but for me I'm pretty proud of it, it's got a tall tower with lights so I can't get lost, along with a bunch of cactus pit traps so I can harvest animals or whatever without going out myself. :v:
How do you guys think I would go about modding minecraft? Decompiling .jar?
[QUOTE=Cookies114;25216968]How do you guys think I would go about modding minecraft? Decompiling .jar?[/QUOTE] You should be able to unzip your minecraft.jar with WinRAR and modify it that way.
[QUOTE=Onyx3173;25217075]You should be able to unzip your minecraft.jar with WinRAR and modify it that way.[/QUOTE] .class isn't really edit on the go. It's compiled.
Where do server maps get saved? I'm hosting from my PC and have no clue.
[QUOTE=Edthefirst;25217174]Where do server maps get saved? I'm hosting from my PC and have no clue.[/QUOTE] The directory the server's .jar or .exe file is in.
[QUOTE=Cookies114;25217129].class isn't really edit on the go. It's compiled.[/QUOTE] Ah, I wouldn't be able to give advice on that then, sorry. Maybe try asking around on the Minecraft forums?
Wow. It's hilarious when you and 2 other people go on an exploration expedition, build a shack, thsn end up burning it down accidentally while laughing our asses off and going "Oh shiiiiiit!"
[QUOTE=Trooper34;25217206]The directory the server's .jar or .exe file is in.[/QUOTE] What type of file should I be looking for? I've got it dumped in my download directory :v:
I opened the minecraft.jar with winrar, and what do the empty purple spots on the terrain.png mean?
Guys, what is the most advanced/useful redstone contraption that you have made? I need ideas.
[QUOTE=linksysruler;25217382]I opened the minecraft.jar with winrar, and what do the empty purple spots on the terrain.png mean?[/QUOTE] Nothing. They don't do anything in the game. They just help notch for when he creates new stuff in the texture. You could just make them black and nothing would happen.
[QUOTE=Jacinth;25217393]Guys, what is the most advanced/useful redstone contraption that you have made? I need ideas.[/QUOTE] Umm... Does a redstone torch count? That's quite literally the only thing I've ever used redstone for...
[QUOTE=Onyx3173;25216641]Since all that Notch needs to save for a world is the X, Y, Z coordinates of a block and what typ the block is, the world can essentially be saved as a text file and then further compressed by changing repeating characters and wahtnot. (Ie: AAAAAAAA would become 8A saving 6 characters of data.)[/QUOTE] I have a feeling that Minecraft compresses its saved games well. I tried compacting one down with KGB Archiver on maximum and despite taking over and hour it produced a slightly larger file.

[QUOTE=ZekeTwo;25217449]I have a feeling that Minecraft compresses its saved games well. I tried compacting one down with KGB Archiver on maximum and despite taking over and hour it produced a slightly larger file.[/QUOTE] I'd say they are quite well compressed then. At least this proves Notch is programming smart.

Just died with 34 diamonds. :suicide:
[QUOTE=jetboy;25217598]Just died with 34 diamonds. :suicide:[/QUOTE] Wouldn't it be cool to have some sort of pouch or something, small enough to keep a few items only and it wouldn't disappear after dying.
Too easy.
