    It must be great to have decided to not update BTW to other versions of MC and I can tell, you've really made MC your own. The freedom of doing what you want to without having to keep track or worrying about future changes impacting and even nullifying your work and time, really shows. You almost seem to be enjoying yourself, or is that the 'within tentacle reach' of RTH?

    Ty for your time; shiny fire+

    Woah. Props FC.
    and I can't enjoy any other Minecraft but BTW, props for that too.

    EDIT:
    -Hardcore "ARE WE THERE YET?"
    -"We're in the absolute final stretch now"
    GL to you and the players. Remember the cheese, "it's not the destination but the path..." with your work and more importantly, your perseverance (through many turbulent times), even when we reach the End, there's a LOT left to do.
    :)
    Though in the final stretch, I hope you're not down about it (post felt low though interpreting text isn't always easy). Great cheers of victory and accomplishment are due man!

    -Added a brewing stand to witch huts and disabled the crafting recipe. The only way to find them in game now is to track down a witch hut. This was done to create a stronger association between witches and potions, because blaze rods are already sufficiently useful and tracking down a nether fortress was a requirement for most potions anyways given the need for netherwart to create them, and to provide an actual gameplay purpose to witch huts as finding them was largely a non-event.

    Brilliant! Giving use to the useless; this brings another challenge and more gameplay, another mission to add to the list. Just frik'n brilliant! I love it. Ty! Now if only we could... kidding. All the pieces seem to be falling into their rightful place! /applause

    Come on Rawny, wouldn't that make it dull and boring? I mean it doesn't take that much to find enough iron for a iron hoe.


    Yeah... You're right. I should just delete that post. Really. Everything about BTW seems to be fitting so perfectly and I have to open my mouth and impulsively something dumb again. That what keeps getting me in trouble. Something pops in my head and bam, my fingers are moving. I certainly don't mean any ill will by it.

    Ty for the update.
    With the changes to seeds, is there a possibility that a stone hoe with a low use count may be reintroduced?

    Aaaaaaaaaa! OCD kicking in! The numbering now places this file update out of order. What am I gonna do?! What am I gonna do?! What am I gonna do?! Maybe add a character somewhere!? Eeeeeeeee! Nope! Breathe! BREATHE!

    Thanks for to update FC.

    Edit: Woohoo! Add a zero at the end, right after the three!

    Edit2: That is just when I started keeping them. :)

    It's the smallest possible semiautomatic soul bottler, to make soul bottling easier until you can make a fully automatic one. Just throw 8 ground netherrack on the hopper, and move off and on the pressure plate to replace the bottle, and repeat for fast soul bottling.

    Haha! CHEER! So simple yet so effective. I hate my first few soul urns, trying to angle shoot the block bellow. Good one. Someone should forward thins to the forums.

    "now with hardcore hell"... Sounds redundant but when hell had become fluffy bunnies and a side of meh, a distinction needs to be made.

    You'll notice a lot of my changes have been revolving around diversifying gameplay,

    Nah man. Hellmann's all the way :)

    Waoh, that's an oldie. Didn't notice it, there had been a couple crazy necros in the forums lately. Thanks for the answer and a big thanks for all of the added gameplay.

    This question is probably only to be revealed later by new releases and/or player discovery but if one decides to fill their barns and villages from beings brought from afar through Nether travel, is the "taint" curable? I've read about the cows being born. Maybe the booties you mentioned were a hint for the sheep, only they'll be made out of cement.

    You're probably right about the Hellmann's; store shelves hold an abundance of it while my Kraft is nowhere to be seen.

    "-Added a few tiny little insignificant things related to how various creatures react to nether exposure."

    I've been lurking both the official forums and here and there's a question that seems to be going unasked but mostly importantly unanswered; that is unless I missed it somewhere.

    Why?

    Exploding chicken, exorcist wolves, floating sheep, though frik'n awesome, hilarious and excellently disturbing, seem almost out of character as a new "feature", it all seems kinda random, and I have yet to put my finger on the reason. Thus far it Seems only to create a distance requirement for placing portals. No evidence that the "taint" is stoped unless encased in an erected shrine material, encouraging "shrine" construction. Fetching "live" goodies through the portals now seems impossible; exploding chicken, turning villagers. Multi-base creation maybe? One base won't function while at the other though. Mass relocation far from spawn? Clearly there's more to it. I'm certain there are features out there that are yet to be discovered in this release and others from the past, cackling gleefully awaiting its discoveries. To follow a quote from a greet movie... I want to know more.

    Btw, nothing beats Kraft's real mayonnaise... Sadly I haven't been able to find it in stores for a while.

    That's the thing man: .. new players that don't even realize ... due to their vanilla experience without further confusing the issue.

    True true. Clearly represented with some posts and questions in the forums like eating certain foods, how do I use hardcore spawn, why doesn't my bellows work its getting power, has anybody ever been unbanned from the forums, etc...

    ty for the reply.

    Looks like the best kind of reason to nuke the difficulty setting altogether :) .

    That'd be cool.

    Concerning items like pumpkin seeds and mushrooms and them replenishing too much hunger as the hunger "steps" are too big. If I eat one of one or the other it won't do anything to mah real belleh but a handful will. Instead of heavily modding the hunger bar which is something I think FC said he is no longer considering doing, maybe putting 4 or 5 in the crafting grid to produce "Handful of ..." or "Handful of Edibles" which would then produce the small "bump" up in hunger.

    I don't think there's any magical flow from this idea though. *hides* I can't get banned banned can I?

    Edit: fiksed speling miss takes. Left run on sentences.

    Once, okay. Twice no. Someone quotes a thread that is approaching 2500 views and I’m to blame? On the Better Than Wolves forums, I am not TimberPuncher nor Seven2639. As far as I know there is no proving that I’m not except for circumstantial evidence. When FlowerChild started the thread
    http://www.sargunster.com/btwforum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=7708
    I tried to suggest something here in the MC Forums
    http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/253365-152-sspsmp-better-than-wolves-now-with-hardcore-creeperiness-total-conversion-v489-upd-july-18/page__st__35720#entry23172939
    If I had another account I would have just suggested it in the BTW Forums.

    I was banned because I got excited, caught up in the moment of a new hardcore release and disastrously spoilered on IcyNewYear’s lets play. I soon sent an apology message to IcyNewYear and later I tried to send one to FC but being banned I click the “Contact admin” thing thinking he might eventually get it. I do not disagree with the ban; I really kicked Icy’s discovery of new hardcore features in the balls… hard.

    I lurk, still kinda feel part of the community but with my mouth sewn shut I’m now safe from shoving things like giant feet into its depths. I still play and love BTW more than ever. FlowerChild must be a miracle worker as even with all the hardcore modes on (pre 4.88 as I haven’t updated yet) I’ve been playing on the same world for a record-breakingly long time now. His talents seem to have kicked my StartOverDisorder. I could make a video to prove THAT, and I’ve got a perty good HCB mob grinder that I could show.

    Odd to say but thanks for breaking my jaw as it would have just kept getting me in trouble, but mostly thanks for the great game FlowerChild. You probably don’t want me there but I’m root’n for RTH.
