Let's try this shit!

**Sonomaa** · 2011-09-20 22:50

ok, new custom server setup, no XP orbs will drop, so you are free to play now. the game will still lag a little, higher CPU usage and such. we will have to upgrade once the new version comes out and hopefully it wont be fucked up like the last release

Hmmm, not entirely satisfied with it yet... may end up editing to make a bigger gap between the 2 islands/huts

Edit: >_> I know the huts don't look the same, but I sorta wanna be able to enter them. Also, going to change my texture pack so the wood is lighter color...

Spoiler: show

Notch, hard at work.

Gets upset @ working on the leveling system.

Creates snowmen to curve angst.

Minecraft is severely lacking mob variety. Two new mobs is cool... but only in the damn Nether.

**Pikarya** · 2011-09-21 15:31

Aether makes Notch look even more like a little bitch. Depressing how much more the community can dump in weeks vs. the company itself in 2-3 years.

**Mots** · 2011-09-21 22:31

To be fair. It took a loooooooooong time for the Aether mod to come out. But I will agree that Notch doesn't pull his weight around Mojang.

**Shini** · 2011-09-22 03:24

If the creepers would stop blowing up the giant mountain I'm building, this might be going faster lol. Literally building a mountain, I think I've dropped over 2000 blocks of dirt.

That's pretty dang sweet right there.

Side note; I found a pretty interesting map seed that gives you a rather Wind Waker-style massive ocean with scarce little islands.

the seed is: ulysses

I'll probably be using this one if I ever attempt some underwater fortress. I know my friend wants to work on one. The island in the middle is my spawn and it has 1 single tree and a cave that leads down into an underground chasm. It's pretty self-sustainable as long as the single tree yields a few saplings.

Looks like the 1.9 pre-release is out. A lot of cool stuff in the Nether.

link to minecraft.jar: http://t.co/ByDKpDUg

http://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/co...e_information/

Listing of new features in the 1.9 prerelease. So far:

Swamps: darker colored water and lily pads

NPCs in villages, one main model with different colors for different "jobs." Pics here: [1] http://www.reddit.com/r/Minecraft/co...re_out/c2lrg2m

Nether blocks: Nether brick, Nether Fence, Nether Stairs

Nether brick is flammable, it will stay on fire regular than a regular stone block but not indefinitely like Netherrack. Nether fences cannot be lit on fire.

Nether Terrain Features: Strongholds & bridges of Nether brick (can be MASSIVE complexes) [2] http://i.imgur.com/DMso1.jpg

Blaze- Nether mob, A sort of Fire Elemental that comes from spawners and shoots fireballs [3] http://i.imgur.com/U94ZX.jpg

Magma Cube- Nether mob, look like a slime but upon jump they uncoil like a spring [4] http://imgur.com/a/4Wdoo

Nether items: Blaze Rod (dropped by new mob), Nether Wart (new crop) , Ghast Tear, Gold Nuggets (dropped by zombie pigmen)(put 9 of them together to craft into a gold bar)

Farm-able Nether crop (Nether Warts), only plantable on soul sand.

Ghast fireballs do not damage new Nether materials. (might be bug?)

Red flowers and Snow Biomes are back!

Mushroom Biome! purple tinted grass and large mushrooms growing

"Mooshroom" cows appear in Mushroom biome, can be sheared to get mushrooms and then turn into regular cows

Snow "Golem"- can be crafted by placing two snow blocks vertically on the ground, and then placing a pumpkin head on top of them.

Rain is re-textured.

Water leaks through blocks that have space beneath them.

Chests now make no sound at all.

Bug Related:

FIXED- Stair lighting issues

Experience bar changes every time the player jumps (Jeb tweeted that it's not a bug, it "is to test SMP exp orbs...

"

Swamp water and regular water appearing side by side for bad visuals.

Reports of a lot of players having major FPS problems

Bow appears to have extra-long melee range?

Add in the comments any other new discoveries!

**Helm** · 2011-09-22 11:33

Seens interesting?

**miokomioko** · 2011-09-22 14:47

Holding jump no longer makes you continuously bounce. I am annoyed.

Also, that island map I posted earlier, apparently the center island is a snow biome. Now that I updated, the water around my island is slowly freezing over. I'm not sure how I feel about that.

At least the animal/wildlife spawning has been fixed. Last patch, they would only spawn at the very edges of my current zone of chunks.

**miokomioko** · 2011-09-22 17:48

P.S. This 1.9 shit is causing my little paradise island to undergo some sort of fuckin' sporadic ice-age.

**Souj** · 2011-09-22 20:58

so I take it that I can't change my already existing "survival mode" sever into "creative mode"? or is there some work around?

I've heard that it's possible to do that by editing the map file, but I'm not sure how exactly to do it.

**Timwakefield** · 2011-09-23 09:29

I'm a bit confused. Is this a new server all together or did spawn just change? Am I free to build anywhere? Is there any way to get back to my old stuff?

**Talragan** · 2011-09-23 09:41

Can we haz fly mod enabled?

:D
