I found one through the official forums that was really neat, but like everything else on the Minecraft forums, the poo poo's neck-high and pretty hard to wade through.

So given the further pictures of Enderland, are we now assuming that it's distinct from the Sky Dimension and Notch might just be going all-out with alternate dimensions? I mean, all the pictures of it just show long flat green plains studded with dark towers.

There are only around three pictures of "The Ender" and it's impossible to discern landscape features through them. The other pictures of the dragon were taken in the normal dimension, notch just spawns it there to do quick tests. I'd say it's still fairly likely that the sky dimension morphed into the enderman dimension.

I haven't seen the Enderland pics yet so I typed it in GIS and scrolled down and sure enough I saw some Minecraft porn fan art. I'm surprised that I'm this surprised.

What are the odds that notch will be able to resist adding ANY new features at all after the feature freeze? I'm personally expecting a last minute day-before-minecon addition of some totally broken new mob or something.

It's a feature freeze until after release. They want to work on polishing it up until Minecon, when Minecraft officially releases.

Senator Woofington posted:So does the feature freeze mean that its? As in thats minecraft and its done being made? Nah. It's the feature freeze for 1.9 final, basically. Which wont be out until Minecon a month from now. It'll probably be renamed as 1.0 retail or something. Once that's out, expect more patches with new features like what we've been getting. edit: And at the very least, anyone who bought during alpha will get free expansions that beta people and later will have to pay for, if they're still going to follow the original pricing model and "pre-order" incentives they laid out well over a year ago. Who knows if they will, a lot of poo poo has changed.

The pricing model for now additions to the game would be such a horrible idea for how the game is now, especially since it seems that the majority of the player base plays in SMP. Seeing as he hasn't mentioned it in ages and the fact that he said that after a vacation following Minecon he was going to work on the next "content patch" instead of calling it DLC, I have a feeling Notch will not be going that route, especially since he seems to be enamored with the old way of game development. Unless the patch completely altered the game on a whole new level instead of adding a new mob or more potions, there is no way in hell I would pay for anything and I could see an issue with the mod community just making "similar yet distinctly different" mods mimicking DLC.

I agree with you if we're just talking about pig armor DLC or whatever, but I would happily pay for an official set of tools for making adventure maps. Like something that would let you put in proper NPCs, trigger events, etc.

So I've met my goal of never being food insecure in Minecraft. Not only am I growing a ton of wheat, I've broken into the chicken business. I started off with the two that spawned from some eggs I collected, and after fencing them in I started spawning more and more. By putting dirt around the outside of the fence I was able to trap three sheep and 4 pigs in short order, followed by 2 cows. My intentions were to breed them when 1.9 got an official release, but for now they will just enjoy the noise of about 150 chickens I have in the pen after the mass culling last night. That number wasn't supposed to be so high, but I got tired of throwing the eggs by hand and then killing all but the first chicken to spawn. To cut down on time I hooked up a despinser, put a bunch of pressure plates in the farm area and let the chickens launch eggs by moving around. So all I had to do was collect the eggs, kill maybe two chickens per set of 16 and move along. Of course the numbers play out differently than that, and if you don't control the population per load of eggs in the dispenser you get a lot of chickens To make a long story short I wore out most of a diamond sword and all of an iron sword killing chickens between games of Call Of Duty last night so I could collect eggs without being pushed around by what was about 300 chickens.

That actually looks loving amazing, and there should be a difficult to craft item (diamond block altar) that can basically bait one of them to spawn in the main world.

Those animations are quite fantastic and unlike anything I'd imagine seeing in Minecraft. As far as I can deduce, Endersand must be "immune" to the dragon. That, or the Ender will resemble a swiss cheese.

Well seeing as what we've seen of the Ender, it's a bunch of floating islands in a blank void. So I imagine the Ender Dragon destroys blocks and the Endermen rebuild the world in a constant cycle of shifting form

Willie Trombone posted:I could tell that the background circuit wasn't connected, I wasn't talking about that. The redstone going up under/behind the sign is powered but whatever is powering it isn't shown in this shot... that's important, even if it's just a torch inverting the switch's output. Oh, sorry - I misunderstood. There's a torch on the back of the block with the lever, then just a plain trail below it. ... Actually, that's probably the issue - changing the levers to buttons and adding a second torch so the input wasn't inverted is making the toggle work properly, except that the torch and door are closed and opened by the opposite buttons from how I'd like it to be, and I can probably fix that. Thanks! I completely forgot that that torch was even there.
