Yeah, I've seen that kind of error message before- somebody else on this forum actually had the same issue. Definitely one or more corrupted chunks. You want to get rid of them ASAP. Don't try to repair them, don't try to fix them- something is very wrong with data which is not supposed to change, d...

Thank you all for your advice- it's all about what makes this game and community special. I think the problem for me was that I had the mentality of a min/max-er- I had decided on a set of rules (what the community and FlowerChild agreed was the best way to play) and kept trying to give myself the b...

I would search for the models' official specs to get their RPM speed.
Also, how hot are we talking?

I've personally always defined an exploit as a method that exists in gameplay which, not due to the effects of a bug or technical problem, gives the player benefit far beyond what was originally intended by the designer. Many times, an exploit will change the dynamics of a game entirely, since havi...

I've noticed that this community has, on numerous occasions, annoyed FlowerChild by introducing what he considers "exploits" in the game to others. This is, of course, a perfectly legitimate reason to be annoyed as FlowerChild then has to patch out the exploit and the other players who use...

I think it could work pretty well. Maybe a 'flint-and-steel-used' flag could be stored for a minute or two, or you could just have all fire entities store whether they were placed by a player. Fall damage and suffocation would be easier to work with- IF{they were pushed by steve OR by a piston OR th...

Can we not bring up "evil" again? Oh, sorry. I forgot about that. Getting back on topic (and away from that other one), thinking more about it I doubt the 'punishment for killing villagers' is going to be much of a problem. It will be the same as it is with zombie pigmen- "oops, your...

Am I the only one who thinks that this could be fantastic for BTW? FC has stated for a while that he wants the game to become more difficult as you progress. Progressing in BTW involves becoming a little unhinged and evil. Mojang is setting up consequences for being evil. Vanilla MC's going to tie i...

Hey, I was reading through Flower's update journal thread when I realized something. This update has restructured a huge amount of code, making it very difficult for him. But what about those mods which perform even more invasive changes to the codebase. Just how screwed is, for example, Forge? A he...

... And ML being replaced by Mojang's code really isn't that big a deal from a modders perspective. It's just one less thing for players to have to install. ... OH MY GOD. It's just one less thing for players to have to install. one less thing for players to have to install. players to have to inst...

On topic with the suggestion- FC you might need to make a decision about whether or not you like this- mining charges might need to be modified so that they do or don't cause XP drops. I don't want to be presumptuous or make a big deal out of an overly simple issue, and I especially don't want to ca...

I failed to connect any of my buildings, installed somnia and just ran around gathering items and maintaining my 'automated' systems. For several weeks. The worst part was that I had no clear goals for myself- no new building, no further automation, no fixing my stupid semi-automatic wheat farm (doz...

Thanks again FC, for continuing to wade through both confounding code and even more confounding posts on MCF.

... I think there's a thread about seeds for HCB mode which have high source blocks near spawn somewhere on these forums. This thread? http://sargunster.com/btwforum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=4951 Nope, I was thinking of this one: http://www.sargunster.com/btwforum/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3827 Which ...

I fear what will happen is that this block will be included in creative only, but so many people will want it in survival that Jeb adds an actual recipe for it :0 Knowing Jeb, that is incredibly likely. Nah, somebody tweeted a recipe suggestion to Jeb and he seemed to be pretty surprised: @Kalter__...

The souls of the damned tend to ignore librarians. Or eat them.

If you need to build up high (above y=100-ish) I'd suggest hacking in a single block of ice to your inventory when you start your world. If this feels like cheating to you (everyone has their own rules in MC) then you'll just have to search until you find the highest source block you can and limit y...

I really like the new superlibrary idea. It's really nice to see more physical structures-with-function in BTW, as kilns were always my favorite thing to design around. Actually, their addition is what's making me get back into BTW (I 'finished' tech tree in last world, started automating more compl...

Just wondering, does anybody know what the probable cause of this was?
The server my girlfriend plays on has had corruption issues in the past, and I'm curious as to why it happens.

Is it MC screwing up and writing invalid data? Or is it more related to actual OS or data storage failure?

Hey guys, I've recently bought a pretty powerful system, but wasn't able to get a SSD at the time. To make up for the lack of an SSD I picked up 16GB of fast RAM (as good-brand DDR3 memory seems to be dirt cheap these days) and have been using ~4GB of it as a RAMdisk (you wouldn't believe how many L...

[snip] I have no issue with that...BUT... I would really prefer there be a proper solution for this that doesn't require further complication of the install process. I see one of two things happening with this: 1) That the author of Optifine decides to release a BTW-compatible version. I don't thin...

I have working versions of the conflicting class files that one of my friends merged from BtW and OptiFine, I'll share it here once I have permission from the author of OptiFine (I contacted them), as I don't want to get into any trouble releasing files that contains code from his mod. FlowerChild:...

For me, the easiest way to understand it is to look at it like this: (for those actually familiar with mathematics, please forgive my improper use of terms/symbols). Group the three doors into two groups, x and y. x is the door you picked, while y are the other two. x = 1/3, y = 2/3. Because that's ...

... Damn it, that's a much more logical solution.

There I go, over-engineering problems again...

Two things (as the topic is now split)- 1) Damn right we appreciate you Flower. I have no doubt that few people on this forum (or indeed, anywhere) have your combined abilities to both create and deal with such a ignorant public. 2) Talking theoretically (JUST theoretically- as a young CS student I ...
