I have this idea on using hooks to climb up stone and dirt on mountain cliffs.

Change the barehanded left and right clicks to left and right hand grabs with hooks. When you left click or right click wherever you're aiming for the first time with the hooks equipped, your character will latch onto the stone. While holding down right click, move your character's viewpoint to another block to the other direction and hold down left click. The character will move himself upwards by digging into the stone with the left hook, automatically letting go of the right hook, do the same but with the right click on the right side. This way you can use hooks to climb mountain cliffs by alternating clicks. If you let go, obviously you'd fall. So there could be a key to lock yourself in place so you can take out a pickaxe or a candle or something and mark your progress, light the way, or start digging a cave. When you get to the edge, you could just press the jump button to hop over the ledge.

oh, don't be like that, its not THAT difficult, all your doing is cutting and pasting

So does anybody know how to make it run faster? Has a way been figured out or updated into the game yet to use more of our ram?

It has absolutely nothing to do with the internet. I have a fast connection, and I play with the desktop client.

I only ever have my antivirus and Pidgin running at any given time.

My specs are -

1.6 ghz dual core processor
GMA 950 Integrated Graphics Card
2.5 gb ram

Its not that great, but its not shitty either. So I know I can run this just fine. I run San Andreas with NO lag all the time, even with graphics on high, why should Minecraft be so hard to run?

So about 3 months ago, I was playing minecraft perfectly well. No problems, worked just fine with graphics set to 'fast' and the fog distance set to 'tiny', of course I'd get a bit of lag when I had it set on anything other than 'peaceful', and when I run into a large mountain or a bunch of caves, but that was bearable.

But now when I play, its laggy all the time, no matter how much I let it load the surrounding level before sauntering off.

I haven't gotten any viruses and I keep my computer rather tidy with ccleaner. Is it something Notch implemented in an update or something? I just can't play Minecraft like this.

Also, any news on when he'll implement multiple threading?

Running Windows 7

deleted meta_inf, replaced er.class, still getting black screen after Mojang screen.

Hah, stole my idea (just kidding)
I was working on an rpgmaker 2k3 skin. But this looks better already. Keep up the good work. Might just inspire me to finish mine :3

Get rid of the black borders man :/

updated main post

Hey guys! Might remember me from the slowpoke skin I made, which is now part of the fantastic pokemon skin. I'm working on a Harvest Moon skin! I'm almost done with the terrain, I'll have it up by tomorrow afternoon, night at the latest.

**EDIT**
I need help, I can't find ANY sprite sheets that have the plants in them. :sad.gif:
If anyone finds it can you send it to me so I can finish this? I'm pretty much finished with the terrain.png,
I need to custom make the cactus, gold, iron, and daimond ores, glass, and candles. A few others I think, the water and lava never change when I change the skin so I'm going to save those for last.

Obviously the graphics that are out of place are not part of the Harvest Moon SNES Skin, lawl.
All feedback is greatly appreciated.

Ok, I've narrowed it down to the dirt.png in the main directory of the .jar

Everything else adds just fine and the game starts up, but when I add that, it goes completely black and freezes after the sonic logo.

Hey, with the new update today, minecraft doesn't even start man.

*edit*
With your skin applied, of course.

what skin is that?
