Official BG Minecraft Server Thread

[Kaisha]

Go edit your BG forum profile and put your minecraft username in it, may take about 1 hour to update.

Huh, that's quite nifty.

Done, absolutely no rush to get me whitelisted though. I can't play much at all from where I'm at and Minecraft without HD textures makes me want to murder a puppy.

I've not been that up-to-date on Notchisms (been ignoring that other stupid thread also), but did he drop the whole mod API idea that was 'supposed' to be in sometime during beta?

Yes ... we're 1.0 now, so anything you don't see that was "promised" was basically dropped.

Go back to the other thread ur ignoring. Theres a legit review posted there and they mentioned the API being dropped.

Not exactly. While he did say that he was dropping the creation of the API and just giving the source code to certain well known modders, that doesn't mean that he isn't going to stop adding stuff to the game.

[Chrian]

oh good you found your base XD

[Valkrish]

[Ragns]

Yep more or less 1 hour.

Fuck Bulgarians.

Forgot how tedious building walls and separating rooms could be. Still making good progress I think, especially for not having the game currently. Helps that I've played through most of the level about 200 times.

[Doombear]

Hurry up! You gotta do Dark Souls next =)

[Souj]

This staircase should have been wider :/




coming soon!


And then all I'll have to do is build up all the walls and finish up Yuria's tower and then i'll be done with 1-3.

Does anyone know if new Strongholds will generate on the server since it's still a 1.8 map?

If not, I don't think there is anyway to access the end. I spent a lot more time then I should have throwing eye of enders and following them to a location underground that did not have a stronghold anywhere near it. The nearest one I know of from where I was is Sonos about 900 blocks away and since the old strongholds don't have the ender gates then I assume we won't be able to get there without having a 1.0 server.

Also this wild goose-chase took me from 10000,-10000 to around -500,100. Over the span of 10,000 some blocks the stronghold didn't even exist where the eyes took me -_-

[Chrian]

I have ender portal items in my base jinn if you really wanna get there. I can just make one anywhere.

[Fairy-Killer]

Not going to lie, the end and the nether are pretty boring/disappointing. Kinda wished I HADN'T went there and just continued building on my house with new material.

[Kaisha]

So a fire spreading will keep a chunk(s) alive......how about a piece of netherrack that's just lit as a decorative piece?

The end has one purpose and it's pretty epic. I'll assume you haven't fought the dragon yet because that is one hell of a fight.

this map no longer updating after 1.0?

Nope... takes too long to render the map now which makes the game unplayable especially with the new memory leaks introduced in 1.0

That's why I was trying to get to the end :/

So I'm not too familiar with the red dust/piston stuff, so I'm asking;
Is it possible to make a gate that drops down from the top of the doorway and back up with a lever?

Unless they've changed the functionality very recently, no.
