First off, Ars Magica is probably the MOST amazing mod I've ever seen on minecraft... like seriously. Unbelievably good. I've showed all of my friend this mod, and they all agree with me. BUT... I'm having a slightly major issue with it. Since the beginning of me playing this mod, there have been weird graphical errors. I thought, "Oh, you know, Mithion is gonna fix that the next update." But it never changed. It REALLY became noticable when I updated to the awesome new ui... which looks like this:
Ya... I didn't get it. I at first thought that it was a problem with the mod itself, but then I started looking around. I have found absolutely no one with the same problem as myself. I don't have any other mods installed, I've toggled every default minecraft option to see if it helps, and I've installed and disinstalled optifine to see if that changed things. But, theres no change. I'm probably doing something REALLY stupid and just don't realize it... but IDK. And that's why I'm posting this! If you or anyone else has any idea what is going on with this, please help me =)! As I've said, I've always had this problem, through multiple versions, so I can guarrentee its a problem on my side. Here's some other pics of the problem.
Thank you for reading this quite long post. I really need help, cause this mod literally is my absolute favorite. This isn't a crash at all, there is no crash. It is simply strange graphical errors. I'll put some other details about things in the spoiler at the bottom. Thank you!
First off, I am running Minecraft 1.5.2, alongside with minecraftforge universal 1.5.2-7.8.1.738.zip. But, as I said, this problem has been occuring to me throughout various MC versions and MCForge versions.
I would give you my computer specs... but I'm not sure exactly what to put and how to find it. Sorry, If you really need it i'll look up how to find it and post that.
One little sidenote, don't know if it changes anything. I am using a program called "Minecraft Profile Manager" to organize my different modded minecrafts. (Heres the link http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/540449-minecraft-profile-manager/) I don't think this would have anything to do with it, but, you never know.
Idk really what else to put... I guess it's worth noting that since 1.5 version of Minecraft this has been occuring, when the updated spell rendering was made (Absolutely awesome, btw)
So if this isn't enough info, just tell me what you need and I'll post it. Thanks!
Why should you be here: I have played minecraft for about two and a half years now; I think I've done just about everything you can in SP. I know mostly everything about Mob Farming, alot of redstone, and I too have been wanting to be part of a mindcrack-like server. Also, I've really wanted to be a part of a small minecraft community besides my friends!
Will you record? DEFINITELY if you want me to, I have a very small channel.
are you okay with the world switch that was mentioned: Oh yes, definitely!
do you have a Skype (not ness. but helps): Yes i do indeed!
and are you okay with a prank wars: HECK YA BRING ON DA PRANKS! =)

So what's the point of it even being there if it doesn't work and would crash the game if it did? It's just a pointless layer.
lol the point is that you FALL down
the tnt is only there because when you step on the pressure plate, it triggers the tnt, releasing the gravel, causing you to fall a nice long distance! It's not supposed to blow up everything! That would be just cruel.
Hey guys, so I've been messing around a whole bunch with superflat presets recently, and finally decided to make a really huge, advanced version! So, without further ado, here it is!
So, I know this looks crazy. But, everything here does in fact mean something. But what I was trying to do with this preset was make it so that you had to traverse through many layers to reach the layer of stone, in which you could mine for precious ores like iron and diamond. If you like being surprised, I'd suggest leaving now and playing this world. But if not, click on the spoiler below!
So, the first layer is just your basic superflat layer. Nice and bright, thin layer of grass, villages can even spawn here.
This next layer is pretty much just a small gap of air, with glass and sandstone above it. Really great for mining sandstone though,especially because mobs wont spawn on the glass.
This next layer can be pretty deadly, if you don't look out for mobs. But, it's good if you need saplings.
This layer is about 10x more deadly than the last. Easy to get under, almost impossible to get back up. Skeletons can shoot you, spiders lunge at you... it's a nightmare. Good though, incase you need mycelium.
This whole layer is one big trap... be careful!
This is just a basic lava layer, with some netherrack underneath. Don't burn to death!
A nice little layer consisting of a sort of ocean. It's cool, because falling gravel creates a hilly landscape on the bottom.
Wow... this layer is like purely mechanical stuff, a redstoner's dream.
Either the most deadly or the most annoying layer... you decide!
A winter wonderland! (Underground)
The final layer, mine shafts, ores... it has it all!
And after this point, things get kind of odd... but oh well!
So ya, hope you have fun playing this preset, thanks a ton if you read this! CYA!
can you use the seed blue? it has only 2 villagers
Sorry, I have already found the seed I will be using. But thanks for telling me about that seed! The reason I can't use it is cause' I'm going to be releasing Ironville 2 when 1.3 comes out (the seed I am using has all the jungle ruins and stuff) to make it alot better than the first Ironville seed. Thanks again, though!
Guys, I have been very absent from this page for a long time. And I am happy to say why! With the latest updates (12w23b, 12w24a, 12w25a) I have been searching for new seeds like crazy, and I have found one that I think I really like. I'm not going to spoil anything, but Ironville is going to come back to life, bigger and better than ever! So look forward to a new thread coming soon!
Alright, so I've had a server up and running for about 2 months now, and everything is working fine. But just today, I moved my computer to the basement of my house, and now the server gives the message, "Failed to connect to server to the server. Connection timed out: connect" The IP I've been using to connect and for others to connect have stayed the same the whole time, and I made sure to re-forward port 25565 on my computer, so that isn't the problem. Usually, if someone were to try and connect and fail on my server, the server would give me a message saying, "(ip address of failed connector) failed to connect" but no message pops up anymore. This leads me to think that there's a problem with the IP address, but i don't know what it is. Please, if someone could help me figure out what is going on, post below. It would really help me. Thanks!
Alright, to start off, I'm going to say that This idea is NOT good! Now, I'm not just going to say that and be done with it. I'll show you WHY it is not good. Please, keep reading.
To begin with, MODS WILL BE DESTROYED BY THIS! If modders have to work to allow there mods to convert from singleplayer to multiplayer, most of them will just give up. They don't have that kind of time on their hands. Mods we all know and love such as Mo' Creatures, Millenaire, Redpower, Computercraft, More Creeps and Weirdos, etc. will dissapear. Leaving many minecrafters who play because of the mods with nothing. They leave, Mojang looses tons of players.
Yes, the worlds would be invite only. But wait? No one thought about the tons of Minecraft hackers! These people will do everything they can to find their way into your world, and destroy it. Then you have nothing left. And you start over, get far, and get grieved again. Many people would just give up on the game.
Also, not everyone's computer is capable of running a server, even if it is a tiny one! My friends laptop can barely run minecraft, and he can't even connect to servers! So then, there are people who won't be able to play minecraft at all, because their computer can't handle it!
Think also about the glitches! Those glitches that scare people away from multiplayer and into singleplayer, are now unavoidable!
Sorry, I don't usually hit Mojang so hard, and I know this only experimental. But guys, they won't change it if we don't speak up! I know that people liked the way things are already, and I'm in love with the idea of being able to create a server with a single click. But please, PLEASE don't remove single player!
