Despite everything, my only real complaint about 1.8 is it dropped me from 60-70 fps down to about 14. And that it gets worse as you play the game, despite updating Java. Honestly, I'd just love to play the game at this point, and once that gets fixed, I'll be really happy. The only thing that makes me a bit sad about 1.9 is that the new terrain generation makes creating a world I want to keep playing sort of useless in 1.8.

Tried Sphax on a friends 1.8.1 server and it didn't work. Is it not for 1.8.1? The website just says 1.8

For kicks I decided to try loading the x512 Sphax texture pack. OOM error the moment it loaded. Back to my lowly x256. I demand people come up with a fully automated Chicken Purger that cycles out chickens every half hour. I don't care if the repeater cycle has to be a mile long, do it!

President Ark posted:Their wool doesn't regrow yet, so it's still limited even if you shear them. Saw this a while back but no one really continued the discussion... Been playing 1.8 for a bit now, I've had the same 2-3 sheep near my settlement and have sheered each multiple times... Am I going nuts and have hidden sheep? I could have swore they're the same ones. Can anyone else confirm that wool does indeed regrow? It is for me, as far as I know.

Is there a way of building up a world in Creative mode and then switching back to Survival? I'd love to build some clifftop towers in the -911059665853344167 seed without having to worry about resources, then switch to Survival and go adventuring

I just started playing this a few days ago and I've probably already sunk in over 30 hours. Holy crap this game is fun. Is there any way I can run this fullscreen in vista? How can I farm animals? Is there any way for me to pick them up and put them in a fenced-in area? Or do I have to try and awkwardly corral them by pushing them around? Is it just me or do Endermans only pick up blocks that are 2 high? B <-- this one B GGGGGG <-- ground Also creepers are terrifying and loving awesome. They're almost as good as the headless from serious sam, my favorite game enemy of all time. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lpY-cfTqzsI&feature=related HarkToTheLoons posted:There are a bunch in the second post.

Oh look at the Feelings Brigade and their Luxurious Hen Apartments. How spacious! How vast! Why won't you give them their own private island while you're at it? Sorry, I raise chickens for eggs, meat, and feathers. I do not raise them to make friends. You'll sit there and you'll like it. drat right. Baronjutter posted:And paper is made out of sugar!

People were talking about texture packs earlier, specifically John Smith. It's, in my opinion, far, far better than any other texture pack out there, but like anything it has little problems. So I figure that's a good chance to post the edits I've been doing on it. Mostly I've just mix-matched textures from different versions he's released, but I finally got bothered enough with what he was doing to smoothstone and ores to actually do some real edits. Credit still remains with John Smith of course. The wonderful inventory HUD Ok, sorry for the image dump! Last relevant thing, terrain.png: The .zip is here, includes some other stuff like extra mob skins and custom rain and a smoother font (which you can see in the corner of those pics) And the puny structures are from here. Hope whoever downloads it enjoys.

Toady posted:You can't possibly make this kind of prediction with that kind of certainty. This happened before survival mode, about halfway through InDev, near the end of InDev, just before InfDev, just after the basics of InfDev were finished, and on and on down through time. Every feature has been systematically predicted as never materializing. Multiplayer survival was the biggest for this; it was a popular claim to make absolutely certain claims that we'd never, ever see it. And every time he's said he would come back to it, Notch has come back to it. I expect Minecraft will stop its meandering development eventually, but not now, and not soon. Maybe when Notch says they're done, but not before.

The problem with persistent animals is the fact that they all get stuck in one area and don't disappear. It's usually under my bridge. Every few days I have to go down and kill them all.

My only problem with Snowmen is that they represent something Mojang does way to often; an interesting idea that will be implemented poorly and then abandoned. Snowmen are a joke but they actually fill an important role of a friendly defense mob. If you could equip them with arrows or something they could help defend your house. But they're probably just going to end up like wolves; completley useless. That being said I'm still looking forward to 1.9 because holy poo poo they're actually doing stuff with the nether. It only took them almost a year to realize all the wasted potential there, but at least they're finally adding stuff to it. Vib Rib posted:I thought in a set up like this the chickens would die due to suffocation? VVVV Is this actually true? I know animals don't despawn now, but I'm pretty sure they still spawn. Just not as often. I've seen some animal wandering around in my front yard and that area was definitely cleared out of several times.

It's an XP bar that levels you up.... but does nothing. Much like the animal spawning that was all but removed, because he plans to add some kind of animal husbandry system later - but decided to just make animals never spawn before finishing the other half. Internet Kraken posted:VVVV Is this actually true? I know animals don't despawn now, but I'm pretty sure they still spawn. Just not as often. I've seen some animal wandering around in my front yard and that area was definitely cleared out of several times. They still respawn, but EXTREMELY slowly. I can't remember the numbers exactly, but it's something along 1/400th of the previous rate. The difference is that now they spawn in groups of a few, rather than one at a time, to help the herd vibe. So yeah, they can spawn, it's just that it hardly ever happens.
