I like Painterly the most because of its customizability... but I wish it kept original textures as options.

thanks ragns for the map now I can explore everything

[Sonomaa]

http://alucxandra.com/bgminecraft/

this directory houses the map with the fuckoff parts to the west and south cropped out

Id like to thank whoever ran a billion blocks over the ocean to the west and whoever teleported do a giant chunk in the south, youve basically royally fucked everyones chances of getting any sort of render of the map via tectonicus until we can figure out its massive lag issues on the server

also dont re-link that map, its huge as fuck, all the purple is unknown blocks (anything pre-1.8). Im working on a newer render now so hopefully we will have something prettier

[Shini]

That's pretty cool looking.

[Jinn]

and we can thank zombe mod for the huge giant explored areas where nobody will ever go again

[Jojimbo]

Well, the remote chunk was done normally afaik, whoever built it caused my overworld portal to link to their portal in the nether, which was located in the ceiling with a very very long 2x1 corridor (+ minecart track going part of the way) leading to another portal and a house in the middle of nowhere.

[Shini]

I have Zombe, but I can promise it wasn't me. The farthest I've been would have been the desert directly left of my area that's split in 2 by a river. And that was mainly from walking. That, and my WTF Adventure on the way to give Sono some coal.


EDIT:

Need opinions. Should I use the Sandstone for Columns or the "Marble" Stone Slabs. It's set for either what I'm using for a texture pack, or it works well with the regular one. I haven't seen anything else yet.

Spoiler: show

[Helm]

Well if it was a really big deal, it's possible we could just be moved and dropped somewhere or start a new map without zombe shenanigans? I don't know. I was hoping to get a snow biome near us though. :<<

[Sonomaa]

some of you might notice some track near your bases. this is the hopeful start of the cross continent track that will link all the major cities/areas together.

I know some of you are very protective of your areas and we have attempted to maintain a respectful distance from you while still being visually within reach. we invite you to build your own stations in the same fashion as your cities and towns such as I have done with mine.


currently the train starts at ragns, goes to my castle above the stronghold and continues on the long journey to the desert town and the other town that is way too pretty, passing by another large castle
ragns and I will continue to work on it, please enjoy, soon youll be able to go anywhere you like


also: we are taking donations of any track, iron, gold, or booster track you might have

[Sonomaa]

as far as zombe goes, that type of thing is exactly whats wrong with some zombe users. I have no problems with controlled use of it, getting some hard to place blocks in or using safe to keep my shit from getting spawned on, even some block detection if you are looking for a hard to find thing like lapis or redstone. its the excessive abuse of it, changes it from a useful tool to something much more annoying

[JigglyJam]

I went south but I didn't think I'd be hurting anything. I went significantly farther the last map but as I understand it, the minecraft code isn't efficient this time around? I apologize for my actions.

I didn't use any mods or anything, just went to the nether and wore out a few pickaxes heading south.

Yeah, we actually hate this ugly shit near our stuff and would rather it not be near any of our things. The railway that is.

[Psion]

And by we, motsy means himself. <_<

I don't mind railways personally myself, lol.

[Karbuncle]

Can build it underground near them if they dont want it close. I don't mind working on Railsystems... You can see my bridge in the old server :X

I'd like to build another..

[Mots]

I mean the group of us who are building in this area. We specifically went far away from spawn so that we didn't have to be around people and there are already a bunch of people building all around us now.

First our village was griefed and even now people are still taking shit from each other. So a railway that leads right too us is fucking stupid cause its only going to keep happening.

[Karbuncle]

This new server sounds awful...

I guess its not possible to whitelist/etc yet?

[Shini]

I agree with Mots, in the sense that the track that goes near my castle floats on a dirt bridge over several ponds.

If we must have it, I'll take the track in to North Window castle, and it can be the stop for my Castle, and Jinn/Mots town. The area under us is a bit unsuited for railways, as we sit on like 4 giant ravines, and a huge ass fucking mining network.

[Deadgye]

There isn't a lock chest mod out yet? I'm pretty sure SimpleServer's wrapper is still functioning in that regard.

Or is it jsut greifing and the area stuff isn't working yet? (Although I think that's working on the ss wrapper as well.)
