Fireslug, I am quite curious as to what texture pack that is? Is it your texture pack? If so is there anyway i can download it? Please get back to me as soon as you can Fire, thanks .
Hi Jerreco, the name of the texture pack is Soartex Fanver.
Superman (It's not Easy) is one of my favorite songs.
I tried to create the impression that Superman faced isolation within the Minecraft world. This is why I only included a few other players (from the server) in the video. Unfortunately, some of the chunks failed to load when I was recording, so I'll try to work on it in the future. Let me know what you think!
Glowstone is square overlapping tiles, and the colours used are straight from the original glowstone texture. Somewhat confused how it resembles cobble, if you can post a side by side screenshot comparison I might be able to better understand what you mean.
Whoops. I took a closer look at the glowstone and you are right, it doesn't resemble cobblestone at all. The glowstone has good detail and shading. I was looking at it from too far away. I don't think it needs changes.
I like using this texture pack. It has a good simple cartoonist feel to it and the blocks naturally flow with each other. There aren't any jarring or disruptive colors to it.
My favorite aspect is the water, it has a really nice color, it flows well, and I like how it changes color depending on whether it's sunny or dark.
One thing I noticed was that the lava block flow was really fast, so maybe the animation for the lava could be turned down just a tad bit.
Another I noticed is that glowstone looks like gold cobble stone. In the default texture pack, glowstone has a little bit of green and brown, so maybe a little variety could be added to the glowstone.
Also, the sand block looks really smooth and white, but maybe it could use just a little more texture or shading to help it stand out a bit more.
Just making a post to say that the Minecraft Authentication servers have been taking down while they fix a large bug! There is nothing we can do about it until the issue is fixed ;P
Time for single player...
Ah, that would explain why "Notch" joined our server yesterday.
I enjoy playing on Keystone Creative as much as the next person. And I believe that the current Keystone Creative Staff has done a great job running the server. I do not say things like that lightly.
However, I strongly believe that everyone who has invested significant time on this server, has the right to post their opinion, as long as it contains some constructive criticism.
I understand that a person's opinion of the server may be highly disagreeable, insulting, offensive, or controversial to other members and staff. But that does not mean that their criticism or opinion should automatically be discarded as garbage or that the poster should be barraged with insults and negative feedback. In fact, believe it or not, their opinion may raise important, legitimate, and valid points to light that were previously buried within the server.
In this particular case, one person's opinion, actually lead to a discussion that resulted in positive changes to how the Keystone Creative Server is run. I am not condoning attacks or insults on the current Keystone Creative community and staff, but I think that people should be able to post criticism, as long as it's constructive in some way. It can be hard to post your own opinion of the server, without being emotional or angry, especially if you have spent so much time on it.
In order for this server to grow and develop, people need to be allowed to have an avenue (this forum) to express their opinions of how this server is run. If people are afraid to post their opinion of how the server is run (because of fallout from the community), then important issues that could be addressed won't come to light, and the server will not improve in the long run. I hate to say that, but it's true. At the same time, I understand that the Keystone Creative Staff have a difficult job, and that it can tiresome to receive insults day in and day out.
A music video of the Keystone Creative Server. I tried to match the music with the transitions in the video. The camera movement is clunky at times, so I'll work on making smoother fly-bys.
Why do I see a banned item that has no use for you in your inventory? >_>
You're a donor, you can just fly or use /jumpto...
I would suggest that 8bitben disables Ender Pearl spawning for donors (if possible). Otherwise, donors will keep on using them regardless of whether they are banned until they get in trouble. It's like telling a kid not to eat ice cream, when there is an ice cream parlor across the street. That's just my opinion though.

I think they are gold nuggets, but they look like keys because Labtec is using a custom texture pack.

Just wanted to post my two cents.
