Seems some people just can't appreciate the subtlety of a good Hardcore Fist every now and then...

Very many of the ideas mentioned here actually do not make sense given the statement. Running now causes something to occur that did used to happen before - but only when a variable was greater than 1.

Or vice versa.

You can't use it as fishing bait, either. And I'm kind of sad that you can't paint with it. well the main reason people are now trying to figure out if it can be aquired is because FC said a hint was that it could be melted down in teh crucible. as melting down a golden turd you created would simply...

Certainly the most difficult achievement to continuously hold for any extended period of time. I mean, just wait one week and there's all these dangfangled new things we gotta do. ;)

Erm, I feel like I may have caused the thread to go a bit off-topic... Can we go back to diamonds and how they will tease us for all of eternity?

As does anything to make sure your trail is damn well marked - clearly and unambiguously. And just practicing moderation in general when exploring complicated networks.

I always place torches on the right, and I still ended up completely and utterly lost.

Moon ♦, Day ● Ravine discovered that extends down to a thick layer of very dark stone. Although similar in appearance to surface stone, it does not respond to iron tools, and is likely igneous in origin. Entering this chasm would seem to be ill-advised, as it will be difficult to return to the entr...

Somehow I always seem to visit at the perfect time...

I'm too excited to try out Hardcore Strat for me to write any more!

I must've been ambushed by skellies from completely out of the blue at least half a dozen times since my last death. Every time, I managed to cower my way over to the nearest wall and box myself in at the last possible second, giving my blood-soaked lungs time to dry... It's actually gotten worse si...

Ever since 1.5, I've noticed crafting, and general inventory management has weird delays and behavior. Anyone else notice this and/or have a fix? Crafting always was a gimmick feature in Minecraft. These bandaids they keep adding doesn't seem to be helping things. The weird delays and otherwise gen...

I'm glad just to have a reason to get rid of all those tiny bits of differently colored wool filling up my early game inventory.

Ehm, the thread itself really is more or less about vanilla. I think it was misplaced into the BTW board.

Here's the thing. I do understand why some of the more inventive types here (Noir, etc.) are in favor of it, though. And it isn't just about having more power; it's about discovering how to use that power. It's a new mechanic to explore and build upon and improve old ideas with, and I'm sure they wo...

This is begging for a snowball fight to see who can keep themselves from mistaking the snowbank for a pillow the longest. How could you effectively simulate heat loss otherwise. A person on top of a mountain in a winter should freeze but what if you're in a cave beneath the surface? Should a person ...

I just had the sudden urge for an impromptu stream. Just got 1.5.1 learned how to read, just downloaded the latest version of BTW, didn't even read the changelog so I can enjoy the suspense of whatever's coming up! I'll be live at http://twitch.tv/ExpHPTV once I get my setup straightened out. EDIT: ...

Looks like I picked the right day to visit!

Congratulations on two full years of, against all odds, making Minecraft awesome.

where do i find the more recent version of BTW? sorry im new here Go to the Better Than Wolves Discussion part of the forum, and check the stickied threads (right under the announcements). Usually the top thread is the latest BTW release. Should say "New Release! (BTW v4.62)" or something...

What version of BTW have you installed, and does it match the version installed on the server? That sounds like the sort of thing that would happen if the server had a more recent version than you; i.e., iron nuggets are in the furnace on the server, but your version doesn't have iron nuggets. Faili...

I installed 4.62 today and streamed myself finding and cultivating a village. This is on Normal mode (I finally switched), on a regular "small" biomes world. I was surprised to find that Leather Armor is indeed enough to protect you from some of the worst threats, so long as you don't acti...

Man, I was terrified enough of mobs already in 4.61! Hard mode certainly earns its name, now. Although, come to think of it, BTW is balanced around Normal, right? Perhaps it is high time I switched... Still, I'm not fully complaining. When I remember how I used to play way back when, when I was para...

I find that if you just hold the mouse button longer than it takes to eat one item, you'll be safe. I.e., begin eating the next item, then let go. It's the point right after eating - when the game is showing used to show the "item changing" animation - that seems to be the most problematic...

The only official documentation of the mod is the mcf op. I'd say there's an even more important and comprehensive piece of documentation: The change log, included with the mod in readme.txt. In this particular case, it only hints at the cooldown period (where HCS prevents "idiocy like intenti...

What's the fuss about? Stacking mobs is only possible by editing a mob's nbt data, it's not possible to stack mobs ingame, not even in creative. It's meant to give map creators the ability to create custom mobs ala the spider jockey. See, you say that now, but we all know that popular demand will d...

Yeah, when right-clicking, you can accidentally feed animals more than one wheat if you're not careful, as per this lovely quote from a moderator on Mojang's bug tracker: You can keep feeding animals wheat if you want to, that's not a bug, that's the player's choice >_> Luckily, animals fed by throw...

was it one of the baby sheep? Er... that question feels a little out of left field to me, but since they all probably grew up within 15 minutes of me taking that picture, I assume not? On another note, here's my sheep pen near spawn in my main world. https://dl.dropbox.com/u/56169534/img/mc/btwforu...
