    posted a message on Resources folder incomplete
    no matter how many times i force update or delete and redownload .minecraft, the resources folder refuses to have all the necessary game sounds. sometimes all it downloads is the walking sound, not even mob sounds.

    I figure, after much copy and pasting from different download attempts, that all I am missing is the disk music. what i mean is that when i put in a disk (any of them), all i get is silence.

    look, at this point all I want is the contact email from a mojang employee, someone with the authority to email a zip of the resources file directly (since I know the distribution of any files is not allowed otherwise)
    as i live in china, twitter and all that jazz is NOT an option for me, hence I ask for an email to ask.

    in the game mount and blade, when entering a town you find yourself either just inside or outside the main gates.

    as long as you dont think spawn killing will be an issue, light up the main entrance to your towne and make that a spawn location. makes for a very nice feeling of arriving.

    with mcedit, you can get a schematic of all the different villager types (blacksmith, librarian, chief, woman, farmer, etc) to replace them properly.

    for non snapshot people, i guess a piece of glowstone atop a fence is a decent stationary light source

    posted a message on How to start off a new Adventure
    Seriously, what is more annoying than having to remake your mines, homes, bases, diamond sets, etc? Due to my main world being generated in 1.7, and I finally gave up on the jagged edges of colliding generation, i need to go from having everything to nothing. sounds familiar?
    unfortunately, the usual goals just dont do it for me anymore... make a home? I am too spoiled to make do with a shack, and I dont have the resources to make a castle. Mine the resources for a castle? Sure, but I dont have my essential armors, weapons, or tools. being forced to start from a wooden pickaxed is slow and tiresome, not to mention that I think diamond has been ratified since it no longer stretches to lv20... spawn myself resources to start comfortably? come now, there is no going back from that kind of illegitimate playing...

    tl;dr / main point...
    starting over traditionally is too annoying, any suggestions or challenges to do instead?

    the only one that seems interesting to me is the pig + car - rail = car... is it really a controllable way to move around?

    if the torch is overiding the rail, maybe wire it so that the rail also turns off the torch.

    if what you are looking for is an easy loopback that doesnt interfere with the original track, having it loop back above the track, then just let you fall on the rails below works.

    militia! either there will be a new house type (barracks) or villagers will return to their homes, and come out in some kind of uniform and pitchforks/scythes.

    posted a message on Should I Use my Diamond Pick?
    iron = stone
    diamond (with fortune hopefully) = resources

    that way, you can save on diamonds and still branch mine fast. remember, lv12 is the best height for diamond mining, 3 blocks between branches is good.

    posted a message on This no caves thing...Is very interesting
    along with a slider, being able to checkbax some cave types would be interesting...
    personally, i detest honeycomb-like caves (the ones that stretch 40 blocks in height, but with so many holes in the floors and ceilings that it is all one big mess) but like going thru the standard caves systems...

    posted a message on Protection vs other enchantments?
    if I can jump into lava with iron armor by accident, and get out at 8 hearts, i think protection 3 diamond armor is all anyone ever needs. seriously, armor has been buffed like crazy anyway, and protection lets you do everything better.

    posted a message on Mojang, Y U NO allow a username-changing system?
    Quote from fastchapter

    I would have liked to know ahead of time when I bought Minecraft that my login username was going to also be my character's IGN. Granted, I chose a name I like and I have no issue with it, but I've seen players with some really horrible names that probably would have been avoided had they known that'd be what we see floating over their head day in and day out.


    this. yuyuhakushi would have been my "game name" if this game worked like pretty much every character naming mechanism game out there.
    I ALSO did not know registering for the minecraft.net would be the same username for multiplayer, and not something different you assign once in the game... seriously, they should tell you that earlier, before you pay up.


    Quote from Omega1396

    Second, on the username rarities. If someone has an account with a "rare" name, such as "Player" or "Creeper", they would retain that name as their account name. Even if 30 other people made their name "Creeper", there would only be one true "Creeper". And in my own experience, I see that people often want a unique username instead of one bound to be often used.


    if you are such a LotR fan you want "Legolas", so be it. Just dont expect it to be rare xD
    either find a name and stick with it, or be somewhat creative and make up your own, combining stuff as necessary.

    I vomit in my mouth everytime I see a Jimmy_67 or something like that, people who prefer to use their generic name with a modifier because they can't/dont want to think of something originally creative.

    The only thing I hate about Jon...
    he's going to "upgrade" creepers...

    -squeals with glee-

    frankly, creepers are the REASON you (or, i guess not you) play survival mode on hard difficulty. A challenge is wanted.
