If any of you have been remotely connected to the internet in the few months or so, you probably know about minecraft.
So who here plays Minecraft? If we get enough people we might even get a server.
Also feel free to post pics here. I'll start with a WIP of something I've been making for a few days. There's a big mine underneath I'm not showing though.

Cool, other people that play minecraft here too xD.
Well, here's a video of my house, its changed alot since it was posted, but its pretty much the same.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=olfwQIU2iHM
Basicly, its 2 floors lager, that corner made of wool/iron is now just wool, the long room on the 2nd floor holds my iron blocks, and is entered through a hidden door, the cobblestone outside is filled with lava, and there is an underwater "safety shelter" should I do something wrong and wreck my house.
I really need to make an updated video I guess..

Fair enough. I got to watch another guy playing it (single player) for about 2 hours. Apparently one of his frat brothers is nearly finished with the Mines of Moria. Something like 4 days straight with nothing but minecraft (some food/drink/sleep).

I has minecraft, I went to the very bottom and found the void, it was nasty, lost all my stuff, two diamond pickaxe's, alot of iron, a good amount of redstone, i got pissed at that so I deleted that world...
Heres a thing, Build a giant tower:
Jump and hold left click facing on the bottom and you can put blocks under you feet, use this to create giant towers about 100 blocks high and put torches all the way up! So whenever you get lost you just look up into the sky and you'll see ya tower, and btw getting down might be harder >.>

Just make a 4xlenthoftowerherex2 hole full of water source blocks at the bottom, and you wont take fall damage.
Also, giant glass spheres full of lava are better then torchs IMO.

I have minecraft survival and all, and I bought it.
I've been with Minecraft since the beginning, even
before survival was even out. So yes, I play it.
I build a HUGE fortress (the wall around it is made
up of over 52,000 blocks), I'll show pictures if anyone
asks, but I'm not going to bother right now.
My username is vxi and I'd be glad to be part of the
server, if the hive or you makes one.

Well, thats very nice 52k blocks wall.
Pretty lame that there is height limit,
Oh and that picture, could you post it?
I hope that you don't seriously believe that someone believes you.
And trolling is against the rules.
What's really sweet is the dude has made over 7,000,000 CAD.
And the game is pretty nifty as well.

Today on minecraft, I made a house out of only glass, and then dug a huge tunnel into the underground (to bedrock) and made a mob farming filter thingy so now I am farming everything you can get from mobs excluding string =P
More or less, they are pulled in to hole by the currant, (they will not die from falling damage, I tested this) then they're pulled down into a small space were they cannot move/escape/etc. and drown, the drop is then moved to the collection point through a 1 block gap from the 'drowning chamber'

Yes, you can get the free game - the alpha - but it doesn't have many extra things, really the free game is just a "lego" type building engine, buying the game is what gets you survival mod (along with things like mine carts - pretty much anything you interact with).
-Note that only the alpha has multiplayer atm

Defying God by promoting genetic manipulation!
First of all Minecraft shows us what the world will look like once the evolutionists finally get what they want and start genetically manipulating everything and everyone. This is not outdated software! This is hypermodern brand new software which is specifically designed to look like this! To mock God and His amazing creations everything has been made to look like idiotic cubes. Notice the tree and the pig are both completely made out of cubes! This is what will happen if we allow defying God's creation with genetic manipulation to go on! Minecraft is already manipulating our innocent children into thinking that all this is normal!

Agreed with the last part (about houses).
And please NO ONE comment on all this about pirating and moral isues or whatever.
Let's quit that addiction and discuss the GAME, alrite?
Now, back to the house discussion:
Yeah, i think natural houses are pretty ownage too.
But the "Normal" houses can be darn bad-ass sometimes. :P
For example i have a floating villa on one of my computers, complete with lava vents to burn mobs stupid enough to hang around below it.
On my other computer though i cut out a temple in a stone cliff, and instead of having an actual door or a blockade to keep out monsters i just added a hell load of booby traps to keep out annoying mobs.

Protip: build somewhere a bit high, so creeps wont reach you - preferably in the sky.
If you're lucky there will be a floating island in your world, sometimes its awesome to create your own aswell too - as you can plant trees on it.

Okay I found Minepedia :D
Dragonson
12-03-2010, 08:36 PM
I was just about to link minepedia to you Chilla. :P
It's got all the guides you need, even though i only use it reluctantly.
And yeah, Minecraft is f****** scary sometimes. Which actually has root in it's simplicity.
Also, let me give you a small monster guide:
Zombies:
The guys that make the moaning sound.
Avoid unless you are carrying a sword, and spam-hit them if you are forced to fight.
Skeletons:
They make a rattling noice like bones that are stripped of meat falling ontop of each other.
They shoot arrows at you, and should be avoided if possible.
Take precautions if enountered, and run in zig-zags when fleeing.
Spiders:
Spiders are tricky, as they jump more frequently and in some cases longer than other mobs. They are also faster.
They make a hissing noice, and should be avoided unless properly equipped.
They do NOT burn and die when the sun comes around, but they seem to disappear after a while if left alone.
Creepers (AKA Exploding Penixes):
I cant remember what sound these guys make, but they're pretty darn deadly.
Not only do they hang around all day even when the sun's out, but they explode if you get too close to them.
The best way to kill them is to just stand on a ledge a few blocks above them and then picking them off with a sword.
Note that they ONLY explode when near you, and that they cannot explode at will to for example blow up your door.
So unless you are near them they cannot do any damage to you or your house.
But if you ARE near them then the explosion will deal damage to all blocks and objects nearby.
So if there's a creeper outside your door: DONT GO F****** NEAR IT.
If you do you will be one door poorer.
They do though drop gunpowder, which is a valueable resource, so they are worth killing if possible.
WARNING!
If you are deep underground and hear monster sounds then there's a cavern nearby.
Since the sun cant reach them underground then monsters will spawn continously down there until torches are set up.
While caverns can be awesome places to mine they can also be your grave.
They are full of lava and monsters, and they can be harder to get out of than you think.
REMINDER:
Monsters can not destroy your stuff.
As far as i know they cant even kill your torches.
But if you die, you drop all the items you are carrying and are sent back to the spawn point.
If you dont get them items back within a certain period of time they will disappear.

I dont want to spend any money...
Have you no income to call your own? You pay through paypal, which to use is as easy as any other online transaction medium (namely, Steam).
And please NO ONE comment on all this about pirating and moral isues or whatever.
Let's quit that addiction and discuss the GAME, alrite?
NO U
oO I'm so fucking scared.
It became night and some monster attacked me, so I ran and digged myself into a little hill.
I digged deeper and deeper and closed the entrance with some blocks.
Firstly it was alright and I continued building my hole.
Then I heard voices oOOO
I thought no problem.
Then suddenly I heard some kind of slamming noices as if they tried to destroy my entrance, but it didn't.
I'm now so fucking scared because I don't know what it is, where it comes from and what I can do oOO
This game is much more scary then Dead Space oOO
But I already fell in love with Minecraft
Awesome game with a big world to discover.
I firstly killed some cows and pigs. :D:D
I still jump whenever a skeleton arrow spontaneously forms out of the darkness, and I deign to approach a creeper(splode).
Okay I found Minepedia :D
just read the minecraft wiki, everything's on there
(compare post timestamps)Thanks for trying anyways, Py.
I'm at a point of minecraft veterancy where I've gotten to experimenting with more complex designs and mechanics, such as balistics(cannons) or electronics(redstone logic circuits). There is always something bigger and badder to build, but I'll be trying to design structures with integral electronic infrastructure with my newfound knowledge.

Rumor's been going around that they've been disabled on accident, or they've been modified to spawn in darkness only. Either way, they still only appear at the bottom 10 layers.
I'm liking the "nether" dimension, its allowed for a lot more complex design in many things. I'm working on a new lighthouse tower design that uses hellstone as the source of light, rather then lava. I have a largish one already, but its still experimental in terms of construction, and I want to incorporate more lightstone too.

Whats cool is that the game supports .png files so you can make transparent skins, even invisible skins.
This gives alot of cool possibilities such as making ghosts, floating droids or similiar stuff.

Hey, I just paid for Minecraft yesterday, and started playing it. I allready think I'm going to be addicted like the rest of you, but it's REALLY hard to find enough coal, and if they intend to remove permanency from torches in complete version, then I hope they make coal more available aswell.
Maybe I just need to search more caves, but then I need more torches aswell so I can at least see the coal.
But the challenges of the game are worth it, especially because the reward is essentially another slice of free creativity, and the challenges are also there so your creativity can make some sense. It's really great!

Peaceful means no aggressive mob spawns. So if you walk up to a mob spawner, no mobs.
And your health regens

Guys if anyone really needs the game Notch was talking about Alpha buyers getting a gift premium account once beta is released December 20th so yeah be nice to us premium people =D.

Yeah BE NICE! :ogre_haosis:
What Notch needs to do is add more tiles to the nether, currently there is only four:
Hellstone
Lightstone
Slow Mud
Gravel...
Thats right theres gravel in the nether
The Only thingy good about the nether is:
Large amounts of lava (Take a bucket)
Hellstone (Eternal Fires woo! Gay for people with wooden houses!)
Lightstone (Makes your life brighter! Also Gay for people with wooden houses.)
and Slowmud! Slows U and your fans the mobs.

I digged randomly again and after some 200 blocks randomly going right and left, I found some gold and 4 diamonds.
Hit 2 times lava, both times got burned, but I had water with me :D
I still didn't find a dungeon.
I was searching for it this dig, but I just found some crappy diamonds.

My current part-stone-part-glass house, I tried the wiki recommendation of surrounding the house with water. The water tactic occasionally works well in drowning the mobs and washing their drops right into my basement, but there's more to learn.
But my joy is the roller coster I built around the house. Just another thing for me to do when I'm trying to pass the time during the night. Other nights I like to stand at my house's high point at observe the lavafall in the distance.
I plan to make something different for my next new game. Maybe with increased difficulty too as the current game is getting boring.
What do you guys try to find in the nether? The first time I warped in, I saw 5-6 ghasts floating around nearby and I instantly chickened back D:

How can you create the portal??
At the moment I'm working on my underwater glass base :D

Underwater glass base?? Sounds difficult. Good luck :P (And please post a pic when its finished!)
For the portal, I used 10 obsidian blocks to create the portal frame, then I light the base with a flint & steel. Its all written in http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Portal

Anyone making an underwater base should do this:
1: Make a nice lake with enough space for your base.
Do not try to make an underwater base in the sea unless you're up for some real work.
2: Set up the shape of how you want your base to look with dirt.
3: Cover said shape with whatever you want your walls to be made of.
4: Add an entrance that looks like this:
[UPPER WALLS]------
[DOOR]---[1-2 FREE SPACE]---[DOOR]
[LOWER WALLS]------
To enter or exit your house without it getting flooded make sure atleast one of the doors are closed at all times.
5: Enter your house and start holing out the dirt.
That worked for me at least.
EDIT: Ohyeah, you can also just make a house in a big hole and then fill it with water afterwards.

Without using your saves? What do you mean?
If you mean w/o deleting your saves, I read somewhere that the Halloween Update was compatible with older saves, so people could build the portal frame and then activate it in the same saves when the Halloween Update came.

12-15-2010, 04:57 PM
huh? I always make my underwater bases in the sea, with the right technique, it's no harder than making a normal house. I call it sand-filtering
build a sand 'foundation' (if you want it floating in the middle of the sea)
build ur base outta glass, but leave a space left at the chosen exit point fill the base with sand (any block will do but I use sand cos it's next to the sea), (removing indoor water), remove the sand: done (I recommend at least a stone spade), remember, all underwater bases need an exit, so you'll either A. attach it to the underground beneath the sea or B. use one other block to stick a door on.

You shouldn't lose your saves if you upgrade versions. It's a known bug and can happen, were your saves will be deleted on accident, but its very, very rare.

Apparently a lot of people grief public servers (where they vandalize people's creations). What sort of society do we live in, sigh.
Crazed_seal2
12-16-2010, 02:07 AM
I know a person in rl that griefs alot of servers by spawning tnt then blowing up everything he can.
He got banned from a server that I play on for using excessive tnt and duping items.
Dr Super Good
12-16-2010, 02:38 AM
And in such uncultured ways.... Its not even funny....
He should try doing something like building onto a creation or blocking up exits, atleast that is more subtle and amusing.

Like with any publically accessible canvas, for every good artist that it meets there's 10 more people that just do poorly drawn male genitalia (figuratively speaking).
I'd be surprised if the creator isn't already working on ways to help keep said d-bags out of your servers.

That just shows you how uncultured and stupid people are. Can you even call them human really (they certainly do not act like it).

On the internet you don't call them human, you call them Trolls
Sure it may not be literal, but I doubt it didn't evolve other connotations other then to be a more exact word for people like that

Anyway I just got into this game a few days ago, actually really fun. Been playing it on a private server with a couple friends.

In case your wondering, that canal system is 4 blocks wide, fully boat traversable, and took me 27 shovels and 24 pickaxes to complete because I didn't know about the durability glitch that lets you never break tools.
Also the lava moat is kind of fail at the moment because you can't go to the Nether in multiplayer to get lava and I'm too damn lazy to actually fill it in completely.

In multiplayer you can drop your tools and pick em up and they'll have all uses again

Nope, I unfortunatly haven't found a dungeon yet :(
And I won't use any cheating devices, such as geomapper.
Dr Super Good
12-18-2010, 08:42 PM
Mapping devices are not really cheats... They do not show more than is already known (although they can allow you to see stuf you normally miss).
Anyway, I read that if you dig down a lot and dig a tunnel you will eventually find them. As once you are near one, the music will change even if the dungeon is not visible.

So im really happy.

If anyone hasn't gotten it yet, the Painterly Pack (http://painterlypack.net/) is awesome. Makes the game look significantly better without any performance drops (its just a texture pack).
Also problem with playing on a server is that monsters are buggy as shit in multiplayer (tons of them spawn, invisible creepers, that kind of stuff), so you generally want to disable them. Still fun though.
