You could probably use 2 pieces of sloped track with another cart at the bottom to bounce another cart back up the slope. That would only be a 1x3 footprint.

They have a server set up so you can wander around this, you just have to deal with fanbois and the admins pimping for tweets and donations.

A friend of mine and I have been talking about recreating Britannia of Ultima Online fame 1:1 in Minecraft. Well, we recently decided to stop talking about it. I give you, Moonglow Revision 1:

Yeah, it's all really rough right now other than the map itself, but if you have a landmark in mind I can put a shot up. All the buildings are pretty much just blobs to mark locations right now and stuff.

A while back I posted a screen shot of a work in progress reproduction of Brittania from UO, today I have a video of our first mostly complete city.

I think you're struggling with the misconception that mine craft does not look like poo poo. I present as fact, that it does indeed look like poo poo. Sorry man, block game looks bad.

For anyone interested in ultra hardcore mode

As much as I like UHC, I've come to grips with the fact that I'm just too reckless to play it. Between never seeming to have a good connection to that particular server and my complete disregard for my own safety UHC is just not for me. You should bring blockskreig back for a few maps, I've tried to talk summit into a few maps of keepcraft, but to no avail.

I don't really keep in touch with too many KC people, but of the ones I do, most of them play with Doji and I on a private server. Corazon is on Nameless vanilla I think, some random KCers were also spotted on the UHC server and still more of us were playing on New Valhalla for a while. I don't know what nameless or new valhalla are looking like right now since I've moved back into playing and maintaining a modded server with Doji.

As for blockskreig, that was goblins attempt at a Keepcraft like, it did pretty well for a while but eventually suffered from the same thing that keepcraft did and also goblin is a jerk and tells you that you can do things and then changes his mind.

Yeah, Idles did a cool little set up too, but it suffered from the opposite problem. People just wouldn't log in if nobody was on and so it died pretty quickly.

It was much more of a ranged and tactical game. Very little melee combat compared to large scale ranged combat or stalking of single players out on mining trips. Even still, you learn to adapt.

Talk to Rack, see if he wants to host it. UHC is cool, but it's still minecraft so people will stop playing it eventually.

Does anyone know if nametagging a monster like a zombie make them persistent? Or will they just despawn like everything else making it pointless?

If a monster picks something up it won't despawn.

It was also Putt-Putt in Mid Michigan. I think they just can't cope with the fact that they've been generic for 20+ years.

Shame there isn't a null block anymore, having a null block was a great way to remove troublesome blocks from mods.

The village center is created based on the first door detected by a villager. From there any valid door within the radius of center detected by a villager is added to the village and the center of the village shifts to accommodate the update.

I don't really like minecraft. I play it for what it offers that can't be found in other games. If it weren't for modding it probably wouldn't even be on my computer anymore.

Not to mention, a blacksmith villager or two just prints cheap diamond gear of any kind you could want.

the end of that video was my crowning achievement in Minecraft.

There have been talks a few times of restarting keepcraft/blockskrieg but I know Schweinhund doesn't want to and I don't think anyone else can be assed. It's weird when people talk about how bad the Minecraft PVP system is though, 'cause I think it's some of the most fun I've had in any game ever.

Without a doubt it's fun, but that doesn't make it good. I think that might be the title of a book about Minecraft.
