    posted a message on Is latest version really "No Java" now?
    Quote from RedRoboHood»

    • Java is just a programming language; in fact, it is one of the best and most popular programming languages in the world. The fact that it runs in a virtual machine instead of directly on a computer increases its portability by an insane amount. And you're against using it... why? Because you have some completely unsubstantiated fear about infecting your computer with a completely harmless and extremely useful piece of software?

    That reminds me - it's used in cars.

    You know, millions of people play this game, and I've never heard of anything like getting a virus from it, even indirectly. Even if it was possible, you could only potentially get it from multiplayer, which you don't even have to play. It's just downright ignorant to assume that the game itself can randomly give you a virus out of the blue, especially if you downloaded it from the Minecraft website.

    posted a message on Custom NPCs
    Apologies if this was posted before, but when I open the Puppet Edit GUI I can't exit it and have to close the game. Also, NPC tools such as the wand render as blocks with no texture (default purple and black checkerboard texture). All in the latest 1.8.0 alpha.

    EDIT: Also noticed that NPCs with the same name will be universally identical. That is to say, if you edit one, all others with the same name will also be edited. Actually it turns out that this one first NPC I made is edited identically to any other NPC I edit, not any ones with the same names.

    EDIT 2: Also noticed that asymmetry works for the hat layer but not the actual skin.

    I'd prefer one that adds a few big things.

    Vis relays forget what they were doing when their chunks are unloaded. I have a circuit of them from an energized node with all primal aspects to an advanced alchemical furnace, and when I get too far, the circuit changes from red (Ignis) to white, and the furnace stops working.

    Is it planned to change the humanmale NPC model to match 1.8's asymmetry? I could assist in editing the skins to be compatible.

    posted a message on Resource pack files not showing up in assets folder
    Quote from Alvoria»

    If you know where the files are supposed to go and what they're supposed to be called you don't need anything else besides a firm understanding of how resource packs work. People want the default as a template when they don't really need it at all. Honestly I wish that Mojang would do the same thing with the default textures so that people would stop modifying and redistributing things that don't belong to them. This would mean people would actually have to learn how to make a pack rather than just including all of the default files and changing a few things.

    It's not more difficult to learn how to do it right than how to grab and edit... it's just different.

    I agree, but I just mean I haven't actually seen a complete list of where the files are supposed to go and what they're supposed to be called. Although I haven't really looked extensively...

    That's understandable, but how are people supposed to know how to change out files? I haven't seen a 100% complete list of where sound files are supposed to go and how to enable them (what with the new sounds.json thing that I haven't figured out yet), so it seems like it would be hard for people just starting to figure it out.

    posted a message on Better death animations and other animations
    I love it. But I feel like it doesn't really fit Minecraft, and it would be better suited to a "new animations" mod that also changed mob models and adds new walking/attacking/etc animations.

    So for a while recently, I've noticed that in my .minecraft > assets folder, none of the folders have the actual sound files or anything like they used to. I'm not sure which version this occurred in, but it's really bugging me because some of the sound files I have saved are corrupted and I need to replace them.

    posted a message on [1.8] Suddenly I'm getting HORRIBLE fps.
    Yeah, I just noticed today that I have significantly worse FPS in 1.8 (about 5-15 as opposed to 20-30). I hadn't noticed it before because I usually tested 1.8 in plain superflat worlds.

    Just as an afterthought, I would like to see more visual and audio hallucination-type effects. Less things that can physically harm you and more things that add to the atmosphere and maybe even freak you out.

    I think there should be actual hallucination mobs; mobs only you can see and interact with. Dunno if that's possible, but it would be awesome.

    Suggestion - Sword pedestals should display the names of swords that have been renamed if you look at them.

    posted a message on Rabbits 14w34a AI is ruined...
    Quote from LeslieGilliams
    1. Tired of getting suffocation damage when a horse gets stuck in a place tall enough for it but not tall enough for player and horse combined.

    2. Rabbits are just kind of annoying.

    Both of them just seem sort of like a mod that doesn't really fit like the other animals do.

    I long for the day that we get the ability to disable certain mobs in Minecraft.

    1. Don't ride them into small areas then.
    2. Then ignore them.
    Everything feels like a mod for a few months.

    Quote from Slysnake150
    but 1.7.9 is the same thing as 1.7.90 so it just REALLY bugs me that the new Minecraft update is technically all the way back before 1.7.2. Should be 1.7.91 or something instead of 1.7.10

    Or 1.7.10 means 1.7.100.
