"Hats in minecraft are like Hats in TF2, it will work! :D"
WRONG.
Explain to me then how I can model a new hat that looks like a dragon on your head, oh I have an idea, what about an animated hat that has tiny 3d windmills!? That sounds sooo cool, players would love to buy that! Oh wait... this is Minecraft... which means the only hats I can buy are Minecraft blocks and playerheads... well ****.
All servers will have the exact same hats? All servers will have the exact same pets? All the same particles? So servers can't even make their own unique aesthetic items like TF2 can?
Yea ok, convince me Mojang, what kind of person would want to pay good money for aesthetic items that are that limited?
If you want aesthetic items to work like all the other games out there Mojang, you better start giving us more creative control over our aesthetic items that doesn't require mods. Otherwise this is not going to work.

Jun 29, 2014Galactic_Muffin posted a message on EULA Revisited: an Updated Q&A From MojangPosted in: News
Thank you for being reasonable, I completely agree. We make no money off our server, in fact we are $800 in debt but people still love our server and we love hearing that they do. We worked so hard In making sure our donation benefits are fair for everyone. We like to see donation benefits as a reward to those who pay us money so that the server can continue to be played by others. All we want is for our server to be able to pay for itself and that wont happen with this new EULA. I agree that the cash cow servers need to go, but the servers that have immanence amounts of work and care put into them (not just built in a weekend for fast cash) should be able to prove to Mojang in some way that they can be trusted with in-app purchases.Quote from SpectralBlaze
I believe that mojang should have an INSPECTOR (or similar mojang rank), that has to go around to minecraft servers and determine how well they are running.
Perks like starting with a gold sword instead of a wood sword, a different handgun (as it will be in my server) (the handguns are basicly the same) should be fine, as well as starting with an item that is only slightly rarer that a regular weapon. i think this should be allowed.
However, if its like it is on the hypixel network (as we all know- is Very Pay 2 win), these servers should have to change.
Mojang should make a inspection request page for people to request inspections.

please note that as a non vip you can start with 2 bread. as vip you can start with 3 giant magmacube minions + an iron sword and armour.
that is basicly the definition of pay2win.
the changes should be kept. but just tuned down.
Any server that actually cares about it's customers like we do, wont make abusive in app purchases. Server admins that sacrifice hundreds of man hours to make custom plugins and make custom builds and truly created a game that everyone enjoys should be allowed to earn some money to pay for their server because they earned it. -
Jun 10, 2014Galactic_Muffin posted a message on Help Us Test the New, Improved Minecraft Forum!Posted in: News
It could be that it is just in beta but I feel it is more restricted particularly in the Servers section of the site. I was browsing the server section of the New forums and coming from a Server admin who is developing a server still in beta for 2 years, this new forum removes a lot of capabilities that server posts have currently on these forums.
1) you guys removed Unicode and Alt code support... that really removes the capability for people to get creative with their topic titles and posts.
2)I could just be missing it but I couldn't find a way that you can even post images or videos on topics in the server category. There have been some great discussion topics on the old forum all because players had the freedom to 'customize' each post with active links to images and media content. removing these capabilities may make it clean but people don't come to a forum for being "clean": they come to a forum for the community. removing community freedoms that drive discussions will kill the forum community.
3) The server section seems much less personal and feels more like a blog post where you aren't part of a discussion but simply you are there to post replies to the blog post. And when you reply to someone else' reply, it doesn't even say that you replied to anyone in your actual post. It just shows up at the bottom and because it's out of context, it makes you look silly. I Like to have a more personal connection with my players so that I can communicate that their ideas and concerns are a #1 priority. I really hate this disconnect everyone has adapted between server admins and the players and I feel the server section of the forum encourages that ideal even more. Planet Minecraft does something like this too. But there is a reason why our server forums have more activity than Planet Minecraft.
4) Maybe this is just because the forum is still in beta but I think you guys should keep avatars and signatures even in the server section. This is not a professional forum for business discussion. This is supposed to be a casual forum where server fans have the freedom to talk about the things they love and express themselves in their posts. Most of your audience are kids. Removing things like signature use (image signature use) can be a bad thing.
Synopsis:
In the server section of the site:
• Bring back alt code and Unicode use
• Do not remove Image and media embed compatibility. These are essential elements to a successful forum. Removing them will kill this forum community.
• Don't sacrifice freedom for a more clean looking forum. Stay far away from the blog design; keep the forums personal where the community can express themselves.
• Where are the avatars and signatures? -
Aug 3, 2013Galactic_Muffin posted a message on Minecon Tickets Announced!Posted in: News
yea i used eventbright. got 4 tickets at the same time. They are under my name but they are for my friends...except 1 now...Quote from Wrekking
Minecon tickets from eventbrite are the only ones honored, if you bought a ticket and reserved it in your friend's name, sadly that ticket has gone to waste.
but i dont even know how that would work if you wanted to give the ticket to someone else.
Yea it really isnt a game anymore, its an engine. Infact the server in my signature is an entirely different kind of game built using Minecraft as the engine. It's pretty cool how minecraft has become so much more than a game imoQuote from CraftyValley
Y'all love Minecraft a lot! The virtual persona thing is so alien to me. I just think that the 'game' itself is cool. (can't say it's really a game because there's so much you can do)
as for the virtual persona thing, the digital era is bridging the gap between real life and virtual. so someday products in digital world will be no different than products in the real world. they are even working on merging our own lives with a digital world too in virtual reality such as Google glass and the oculus rift. But if you really think about that, its already happened with our cell phones and facebook. -
Aug 3, 2013Galactic_Muffin posted a message on Minecon Tickets Announced!Woot! I got in this year!Posted in: News
I got 4 tickets for my server team but one of my friends cant make it. Is there any way i can sell a ticket? I heard they are unsalable is this true?...
Quote from CraftyValley
I do not understand the whole thing with the capes, but I don't really get avatars in general. What do people do who have Minecon tickets for sale? I have two that are not spoken for. (and yes, I did create the account just now to inquire - I'm a dad and not a minecrafter).
Helo CraftyValley, I am 23 so I have lived with and seen the Digital product market grow-up as you have I'm sure.
The whole thing with capes is they can only be obtained from Minecon and just like when you were a kid, getting the rarest baseball card, comic book or getting a ball signed by your favorite sports player, (Which you can only get at the game) can be compared to getting a cape from Minecon today. they are actually worth quite a bit; and alias with a cape can be sold to someone for a fancy price depending on the Minecon year it came from. But for your kids, I'm sure its as simple as having the latest and greatest novelty to wear and show off in-game to all their friends.
in either case, going to Minecon should not be about the cape alone. Minecon is an amazing celebration in this new era of video games that Minecraft started 3 years ago. Minecraft is definitely something that will go down in our digital history, so going to Minecon is like partaking in history itself -

i agree... its 2023 and they STILL haven't added colored light, we had people who made mods inspired by this thread that added colored light to the game with OpenGL, it is possible and i know mojang is worried hos adding colored light would effect performance but computers and graphics cards have improved dramatically the past 10 years since i made this post. I just feel mojang might be underestimating just how much value a change like this would bring to the table. it wouldnt even need to be all colors, even just a few colored lights would make a huge difference if they are worried about performance for all the different colors it would have to cover with a full spectrum. it would be one of the biggest introductions to the game in a LONG time allowing creators and minecraft vanilla experiences to be heightened due to the atmosphere options that one could use to amplify their builds.
I was building a cyberpunk build utilizing the new glow sign and glow picture frame updates and colored light would just complete this.
MOJANG WE STILL WANT COLORED LIGHT! Please consider it

hey Goatii actually I made the initial sketches of the sword designs but True_Nord is the one who made them into 3D weapons for the resource pack. True_Nord was putting together a video tutorial on how he created them. I'm not sure when he will be finished with it though.

Hello. So I made a custom resource pack for my server and it is working for all the regular players who have the server saved into their server list. However brand new players who login via a "DirectConnect" from the server list do not get prompted to download the resource pack. But if i ask them to leave the server and re-log they do however get prompted the SECOND time they login via the DirectConnect.
Has anyone else encountered this problem?
