Re: Mojang's Nerfing of Endermen: Thoughts

I know that you made changes to Endermen back around the time you introduced Ender Spectacles, but I'm not exactly sure what those changes are. I actually asked about the Endermen changes a couple weeks ago on the Mincraft Forums but didn't get a response. There don't seem to be any details on the w...

Re: Mojang's Nerfing of Endermen: Thoughts

I don't like Endermen. Endermen are hard to fight because they keep teleporting away. Endermen grief up my lawns and reed farms, and there's not a lot I can do to stop it. I feel like the only reason that they were given the ability to pick up blocks is just because they can. Landscapes that have ex...

Re: Vanilla Minecraft News Discussion

Seasons sound cool. I hope they take this opportunity to also increases the length of a Minecraft day/night cycle. In Minecraft it seems as if it's constantly switching between day and night. I hope they double or triple the length of a day. It feels like I hardly have time to build or explore durin...

Re: Converting BTW Texture Packs to 1.5

I think I found the three of the new textures that we are now able to individually customize: fcBlockSlats_side.png turntableswitch.png fcBlockDecorativeWhiteStone.png I noticed all the item texture files have the "fc" prefix except for the screw. Also, one of the item textures wasn't incl...

Re: Converting BTW Texture Packs to 1.5

Thanks for the texture pre-release; this is very helpful for me. Also, thanks for splitting up your texture sheet. This will make it much easier for users to mix-and-match their textures.

Klendt and Davirushash are whitelisted and have both logged on. It is looking like when names are entered into the whitelist, they need to be in all lower-case letters for whatever reason.

Is the Companion Cube too sad?

With default textures my Companion Cube has a derpy, almost happy face, but with the Vattic texture pack, my Companion Cube looks so very sad. Does anyone else feel this way? Companion Cube should not be sad to be cubed! Here is a proposed new texture to solve the problem: http://i.imgur.com/5ec2amJ...

Re: 4.64 Balance Observations & Discussion

I started a new world for 4.64. I spawn on an ocean island with no trees, but my bonus chest has a little wood and a few apples. Luckily, though, there are 3 pumpkins on the islands. I turn them all into seeds and plant 12 pumpkin plants. I mined a bit to try to find coal, but my pick broke, and I d...

Re: Speculating on BTW's story and narrative.

A nuclear explosion evaporates all the water of the villages within range and kills the villagers. The radiation causes the dead to rise, so Steve must fend off hordes of undead zombies and skeletons.

Re: New Release! (BTW V4.64)

The dung block change happened in version 4.6. From the release notes: Changed Dung blocks so that they are part of aesthetic earth blocks, which allows them to behave in a manner more consistent with their material type. This necessitates a conversion for previously existing Dung blocks, which will...
