I haven't been keeping up on 1.8 but I don't get how Endermen work. From what I can see, they teleport to you if you're looking away, but they stay still if you're looking at them but they also attack you? How the hell does that work?

If you make eye-contact with the enderman he will attack you as soon as you break contact.

So I have an asus 1215b netbook. Minecraft runs decently on it but I wanted to install optifine. The problem is when I install optifine and launch my game, after I log in I just get stuck at a black screen. Any ideas?

1. did you delete the META-INF folder from within the minecraft.jar?
2. are you using the classic optifine, or multithreaded? I've had issues with the multithreaded version.

The latest optifine makes minecraft run acceptably on my eee pc 1001px

Thank you that did it! (deleting meta-inf)

I'm pretty sure there are tumbleweeds in that screenshot guys. Pretty sure that's new.

Unless they already announced some kind of sand-growing desert tree and I missed that.

Those desert shrubs? They are in the game right now...

I think Vib Rib has modded so much minecraft he now feels entitled to its direction.

This all falls into specialization versus total customization. A game takes a certain direction and while it is in an unfinished alpha it may have some significant appeal to some but while the game gets defined more and more some people are going to love it more while others feel left behind. However customizing the game to a ridiculous level will never happen because this is the direction the game designers meant since the beginning.

Well, I can't say for certain but I had a few of my friends shrieking in horror down a skype call because they looked at an enderman on the horizon and it promptly teleported inside their house and started killing the gently caress out of them.

Cool thanks. Since this is the pre-release and therefore temporary, here is a server for nothing but chaotic shenanigans:

removed and moved to PGS

No rules, have fun.

So I opped and deopped people. For now there are still no rules I guess but me and a friend were playing pure survival (which is now wickedly fun). Endermen still don't work in SMP :(

However we did start on a new world from a funny seed I tried. We started on a small island and decided to go north, this was our journey. Holy poo poo.



I think it took something like 7 days of pure sailing. Awesome.

That tip at the left is the main piece of land we found, a sprawling forest. It might not look it but that little section is HUGE.

I want to see a full ocean crossing. From one continent to another.

I kinda feel like islands are too frequent.

I dunno, looking at that map it looks like there was more land than it felt like on the journey. I swear we wouldn't see land forever and then we'd see a tiny little plot of dirt. I kind of like it like that, otherwise its just too plain and boring. But different strokes I guess. It still feels desolate though because most the islands are treeless. Seriously this game keeps reeling me back in.

edit: our coordinates were 14,000+ in one direction.
double edit: The seed is "A brand new place I never knew" without the quotes.

So I have a little problem that's a bit strange with my server. The spawn point on my server has randomly changed places :psyduck: It now spawns us, when we die with no bed, in the middle of a desert by a NPC village instead of a pinewood forest by the town we started to build. Anyone know what caused it and if I can fix it?

Dunno but the same thing just happened with our server too. I had to manually change the spawn back to where it was, it was offset by about 200 blocks. And now my server is down :(

NBTedit is your friend. Open up your level.dat in your world folder using NBTedit. You will see SpawnX,Y and Z. Change to whatever you want, save it and replace it.

is anyone else's server going down constantly? My server has been down twice within this past hour.

Wow, I'm actually pissed about this. This change adds absolutely nothing to the game and ruins a lot of the stuff I had built at bedrock. So much for my slime chamber. Is there any way I can make that fog go away inside a certain area? Expose it to sunlight or something?

It actually makes cave exploration awesome so screw you.
