    posted a message on Save from few years ago getting certain chunks replaced with new terrain [need help]

    Sorry for the delayed response.


    That's very helpful information, thanks a lot!

    I did actually try to use MCEdit for Mac. The application seemed to load just fine (I even tried the new and old versions) but within about 10 seconds of loading up the world, it would just crash. I may try to run it with windows on a virtual hard drive if I have some time to see if that will work. I'll do some more investigating with that thread you linked me to and see if I can work this out.


    Thanks again!

    I think I have backups from before I loaded up a newer version though. It may just take a bunch of time trying to find the correct version to load into, but I'm looking for any potential fixes from third party applications or just anything at all really.

    I have a few worlds from like 4-5 years ago that I build tons of things on. One of them I just logged into for the first time in a few years and everything loaded properly. It was just a flat grass map.


    The other one, has all sorts of terrain. I built tons of things over many chunks. I created backups before loading up the latest version of Minecraft, but I cannot recall which version I actually last played on. It spawned me in an area I did not recognize at all, because it was new terrain that generated on top of a bunch of things I built. Eventually I was able to find traces of my old creations when I explored a little bit. Using a backup copy each time, I tried several different versions of Minecraft. I noticed lots of blocks and chunks were missing when I loaded up 1.5.1 and 1.5.2. It seems that 1.6.1 is more like where I left off. I used lots of quarts blocks and horses, meaning a majority of the build work I did was around the time of the release of those items.


    In 1.6.1, I found significantly more remnants of what I built before, but not a single building was completely left intact. All of them either had chunks of the buildings replaced with generated terrain, or invisible blocks altogether. A few blocks displayed the checkered black/pink "missing texture" skin.


    I'm quite certain that my spawn point is in fact where I last left off playing.

    Can anybody provide me with tips or assistance on how to restore my world to what it once was, instead of having sporadic chunks of my creations replaced with randomly generated terrain? It's really heartbreaking seeing all my hard work in ruins.

    This is very helpful. I have a hard time with being creative and I always end up making the same rectangles and squares for buildings.

    I'm pretty good with redstone, but making things look good... I'm terrible at it.

    Shut up and stop complaining. I'm so sick of seeing this crap. Why is there always people that can't be happy with updates? Why make this thread? You people either complain that an update takes too long, or that there's way too many updates.

    WTF is the point of this post exactly. No one wants to hear you whine about how you don't like Minecraft.

    This is completely amazing... Nice job!

    Also, the download link on this page appears to be broken, at least for me it is.

    This is just awesome. I never would have even thought of this as a mod. I like the simplicity also.

    posted a message on Single Player Commands [V4.9] - Official Download [SPC] [+NoClip]
    I've been using SPC and Worledit for a very long time but I have no idea what could be causing this problem:

    I have to manually select regions by typing //pos1 and //pos2 (which isn't really that big of a deal) but what is is I can't do the //replace command at all. It just says replaced 0 blocks. And if I try using the //walls command, it creates it 1 block to the South. It seems to me that there is some problem with coordinates here. I have tried a fresh minecraft folder twice now and it is the only mod I have installed.

    I don't know if this belongs here, or on the Worldedit thread, but does anyone know what the problem is?

    Edit: If I do //pos1 then go stand on that block, this is what happens:

    The selected region coordinate is: x= -163 y= 30 z= 216

    Actual coordinate: x= -163 y= 30 z= 217

    Which would explain why it brings it one block south usually.

    For a second at the end, I honestly didn't recognize that was Notch. His beard is as much of a trademark as the Steve Skin haha

    Quote from piangrande

    Strangely enough, he looks so much younger without the beard. But it is indeed a trademark.

    Both of these are exactly what I was thinking.

    Quote from infernalinfernos

    Or if ur lazy and want it extremly easy but not very accurate, u can drop items through cobweb onto a pressure plate.
    Or, u can try Etho's hopper clock, and use the main idea of that concept and make it into an extended 1 hour timer


    The items through the cobwebs onto a pressure plate, but I use a minecart. That's a great and reliable timer without the need of a ton of repeaters. I highly recommend it, especially if you need a 1 hour delay.

    These redstone lamps are powering the pistons even though there is a block of air between them.
