I've been a fool and accidentally deleted this awesome seed without writing down the seed properly

Can servers be given a seed for map gen yet? With the use of bukkit would be preferred. (well for when they release the new 1.8 wrapper)

I'm having a strange bug. I updated Minecraft, and now it crashes whenever I go to video settings. I deleted minecraft.exe, the entire minecraft app data folder, Optifine and MCPatcher, and downloaded a fresh .exe. I'm wondering if I missed something when I was trying to wipe stuff for a clean install. Searching for minecraft or mcpatcher doesn't turn anything else up. How do I get a totally clean install of Minecraft? I'm on Windows 7, 64 bit. Edit: Looks like I had not, in fact, deleted the appdata folder. Trying again! Edit 2: Fixed! I am An Moron.

TehKeen posted:powered minecarts Wait until you find more gold; powered minecarts are terrible. (I seem to recall notch or jeb_ saying they would make improvements, probably for 1.9.) You only need 2-3 segments of powered track to start (if you butt the end up against a wall and put a button on the wall above it, it'll launch the cart if its on the first segment when you press the button) and one every 35 track segments or so (with a redstone torch next to or under it) to maintain speed on a flat surface. Krinkle posted:can you ride a track in a circle for a while to get the achievement or does it seriously have to be a mile in absolute distance? You have to ride it a kilometer away from where you started. I made a video of it when I got it: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mZZSrtFWiAY mrwuss posted:Can servers be given a seed for map gen yet? With the use of bukkit would be preferred. (well for when they release the new 1.8 wrapper) You have two options - there's an entry for level-seed in the server.properties, or you can generate the world in single player and copy it to the server, setting the world name appropriately in the server.properties. (This makes it possible to convert a single player world into a multiplayer world.)

We did the same thing on Penislandia, we founded all our towns on NPC villages, this one was right by spawn. We've dubbed it NPCton. We expanded it to the south a ways, and are working on building more outlying settlements to the north and east.  Plus the black and red flags own hard.

I'm really liking being able to switch between creative and survival for new seeds with NBTedit. Building my last house in survival was a complete bitch, especially when I decided I wanted a powered rail system in the place and had to re-model half of the place and ruined a few picks in the process. If I want to mess with my setup now I just switch to creative and do what I need to do.

All I can see is the outlines of blocks and sometimes lava or monsters. Anyone else have this issue? I've tried re installing it a couple times as well as removing my texture packs yet it won't go away. Mine was doing that for a while, I deleted .roaming and updated java and seemed to fix it.

He also mentioned multiple times about rewriting the light engine, along with other things, but that doesn't matter because the focus of my sentence was him doing it 'right'. The main point is that Notch may say something is impossible, or hard, but that's only because he wants to do it the way he wants to do it, the 'right' way. If he wasn't spurgy about his game like that, then we would have all sorts of things already added into the game. We barely even got betterlight and other mods into the vanilla game because of Notch's temperment, which Jeb has been the community savior for doing not-stupid things.

The focus of my sentence was you not providing any source to your original statement... but whatever. So he has aspergers because he want's to make the game the way he wants to? Are you saying that you know the right way to direct minecraft and he doesn't? Not trying to be combative, just don't know where you're going with this. I mean, didn't jeb implement wolves? So much could have been done with that, but never was. I think minecraft is going along at a good pace, and while some things could be handled better, I've gotten my monies worth.

It isn't really 'spurgy' (sic) to want to do things the right way. If you just chuck lovely quick-fixes into the code as you go, it's going to come back to bite you in the rear end later. Not that I know anything about coding, or Notch's coding specifically, but the same is true with anything.

He's gotten better with it, but there's still him wanting to do it his way, the way he thinks is right. This is not a bad thing and it is his game, so it's his right to do it. I was just saying that to give a point of view on why it would be "impossible" to do things, in which modders do without a too hard of a time.

Hey, Molyneux has some pretty great ideas. It's not his fault he's a game maker first, and game designer second. I would imagine if he had years to make a single game, something akin to Dwarf Fortress would pop out of him. But he makes games to sell, not because they're cool.

When I started playing Minecraft in July 2010 in ran perfectly, about six months ago I picked it up and started to play again and began to crash every 2 to 3 minutes. I figured out my computer suddenly had an issue with rendering distance set to far, I switched it to the distance just below far and everything ran fine and I chalked it up to an issue with whatever patch was live at the time. I recently downloaded it again for the latest version after hearing all the changes in the adventure update and it's still loving crashing with rendering set to far. Does anyone know why this is happening or how I can fix it? It's frustrating the hell out of me because I can run any game I want to with the absolute highest settings and I can't fathom why my computer can't handle a far draw distance in this game.
