    posted a message on [Challenge] Build house from under ground
    Yeah, ez challenge. Tricky to start, though. I completed it in under 2 hrs while at work. Comp sux so I had to be on ez and don't have the opportunity to record a video or screenshot (network restrictions). What I did was grabbed wood on the surface (18) and headed below. Was on peaceful because the comp I can use at work lags bad enough without mobs added in. Didn't use torches and just explored a cave till I hit redstone. Set up a small camp and made piston. Then went back to the sub surface layer and built my house. Used the piston to push each column up until the house was above ground. Hollowed it out inside, placed a door, opened it, and walked out a free man.

    Quote from tsuna25

    I got this hack/mod thing or whatever you want to call it that lets you edit your level its really easy to use its called nbtedit yes it does work for mp its not a virus after your done installing it link: CENSORED just launch it open the files go into level.dat go to xp click on xp enter in a number be sure to press enter and save and your done.For multiplayer do the same thing but go into your world and into players then just open that file with nbtedit

    Yeah, if you're going to link the the utility, link directly to the developer's page for it. Otherwise, no telling what people are downloading.

    BTW, I don't care what file it actually is, I treat all direct links like this as viruses and ignore them, as EVERYONE should.

    posted a message on To all people that complain about the Dragon (and the End)
    Agreed.

    If you don't want dragons, don't visit the End dimension. If you don't want to fight the boss, use your ASWD keys to go the other direction. If you don't like the way a game is headed, use the well established and published avenues to voice your opinion.

    If things don't go the way you want overall, you have 3 choices.

    A] Hit the "X" in the upper right and play something else (or better yet, go outside!!! You know, that place with the crappy lighting engine that hurts your eyes and the super realistic physics engine that can actually hurt the player).
    B] Learn to program and build a game tailored to your liking.
    C] Cry me a river, build a bridge, and get over it.

    Crying like a baby on the forums is not a valid option.

    Fences 4-5 high, 1 fence off the top, glowstone one the bottom of the single post. Place next to pathways for streetlamps.

    You can even move the glowstone 1 farther away for an even better look

    Chandelier alternative: Put a decorative block (gold, iron, various wool colors) 1 block away from the ceiling and surround with torches. Place fence between block and ceiling.

    Wall alternative. Stagger 1 half block and 3 to make castle-style walls that are still mob-proof (except spiders who can climb it).

    Get angry because my dung production lowered, then go out and find another one to lock in my canine slave pens.

    Those look like all the snowmen I've seen in minecraft. Not sure what you mean by pixel art.

    And yes, they are your friend. You have a lot of them there, too.

    ATTACK!!!

    posted a message on monster fall trap
    No matter how far away and how dark the room is, if there are monsters spawning in the caves in the area, nothing will spawn in your room.

    ProTips for Mob Spawners:
    1- Make your room at least 2 high.
    2- At least 24 blocks away from where you commonly stay. 24 above is a good choice due to the fact that gravity keeps you on the ground and away from the spawner.
    3- If you don't want Endermen pulling it apart, make it out of "man-made" materials (1.9.x and up). Wooden planks work well.
    4- If you don't want spiders, place half slabs every 3 blocks. Spiders need a 3x3 area to spawn in.
    5- If you are using a spawner, you MUST be within 10 (maybe 16) blocks for it to spawn mobs.
    6- Ceilings keep it dark. Redstone torches provide enough light to see, but won't prevent spawn. They might reduce the rate, however. Not confirmed.
    7- For slime farms, make sure that it's well lit from above and in a chunk that spawn slimes. Http://mcslimes.appspot.com/ can help locate those chunks.
    8- Light up EVERYTHING around. All caves and grounds within 140 block from game ceiling to bedrock. Don't be stingy with the torches. Torches have a light level of 14, which reduces by 1 for every block away from it (2 for diagonal). Water reduces that by 2 per block. Mobs will spawn at 7 or less.
    9- Mobs cannot spawn on "non-solid" blocks such as half slabs, stairs, glass, etc. If it lets light through, they can't spawn on it. Also water and lava prevent spawns.

    posted a message on How to make button last for longer!
    So you made a well known circuit using well known methods and didn't even post a link to the wiki or the hundreds of YouTube videos and/or threads about it? Sounds good to me.

    posted a message on What is an IMPLIES gate?
    IMPLIES gate.
    A device which represents material implication. Returns false only if the implication A → B is false. That is, if the conditional A is true, but the consequent B is false. It is often read "if A then B." It is the logical equivalent of "B or NOT A".


    Basically what it says is that it will be on for all conditions unless A is on and B is off. Useful for checking if a circuit is outputting a specific state.

    Ok, can we get a mod to LOCK THIS THREAD or at least move it to the CORRECT SECTION before these 2 try to divide by zero?
