Concerning Mining, Crafting, Serving, Fifthfiending

[Fifthfiend]

Substantially boosted the horizontal push on lapis-based bouncers. Now much more viable for inter-island transit. Obsidian is now your bouncer of choice for vertical transit.

Hey Fifth, you should set up a voice server for yours!

This ain't a bad idea assuming I can get it to run off the fc.net server. I'll look into it?

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

Hey Fifth could you add me so I can join in the fun I mean mortal peril of Fiendcraft please? Username's Hawk_of_Battle.

[Flarecobra]

To those who put those lapis launchers by the stadium... I had to take them out. Kind of pointless, as you would've crashed right into the dome... then fallen into the Forbidden Lands.

Sorry.

[Verifiedz]

Hey fifth so my friend made his minecraft acc and uh is it ok if you white list him please? His name is FrO0beh He hasn't gotten beta yet so if you aren't able to whitelist him he'll hvae minecraft withing 3 days.

Sorry.

I put a bunch of lapis launchers various places for testing distance, yeah, anyone who finds 'em near ya stuff feel free to take 'em out.

It seems like you get a bigger boost if you have a bit of a head start beforehand, like the ones across from your stadium should've been able to launch you right into it. Although they also seem a little finicky, like one boost out of seven or eight will end up falling short.

[Flarecobra]

Well, figured since there was going to be a dome over it, they'd be kind of pointless. ^_^V

[Thadius]

Once again I have delved into the world of modding minecraft. This time I combined two great tastes that taste great together. Namely, I put the Millénaire (http://millenaire.wikia.com/wiki/Mill%C3%A9naire_Wiki) mod together with the Yogbox (http://yogiverse.com/showthread.php?11841-YogBox-A-carefully-chosen-compilation-of-good-mods) mod, which in and of itself is a compilation of mods.

My minecraft is now enhanced tenfold for singleplayer. And the most notable thing is not the creatures I have seen, or the town I am helping build, or even many ruins beneath the earth full of sand where I fully expect to find the dark god Kreep'her.

SO A COUPLE OF YOU ARE TELLING ME THAT SKYWORLDS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE ADDED OFFICIALLY AT SOME POINT

If anyone can link to a source for this I'd really like to see it!

EDIT: I think what people may be thinking of is the Aether, an (unfortunately) unofficial mod (http://www.minecraftforum.net/news/140-mod-spotlight-the-aether/) that will add skyworld creation as sort of a counterpart to the Nether. As far as I know there's nothing in the works by Mojang to add anything like htis officially though.

[Aerozord]

this work for you fifth? (http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Sky_Dimension)

[Revising Ocelot]

http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Sky_Dimension

Notch left data in for an early prototype of the sky dimension in Beta 1.6. Using a mod developed by 303[3] or a Bukkit plugin developed by robin0van0der0v[4] you have access to this currently unfinished version of the Sky Dimension.

That's what I believe you're running right now.

The "confirmed update" source is this (http://twitter.com/#!/notch/status/71249283520802817).

http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Sky_Dimension

It says "confirmed update" somewhere in there.

[Fifthfiend]

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh okay.

So that explains why it was possible to do skyworlds in 1.6 / why the clouds and shit work differently there, cool deal.

[Fifthfiend]

INCIDENTALLY for alla those of you who are really wanting to work on some kinda town I understand that Ness is starting one in FL, talk to him about what his plans are for it

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

Have I been whitelisted yet, cos I'm having trouble logging in? Keep getting an "unable to connect to server" message.

[Fifthfiend]

Nothing related to the whitelist. The setup I have doesn't prevent you from logging on it just denies you the ability to build stuff or use the various player commands if you aren't listed.

Double check the IP address you're using, or alternately log in using the URL "fiendcraft.net", that might solve the problem.

[BitVyper]

To whoever built it: Your single block dirt tower to Zeal is gone. We're trying to avoid having a bunch of dirt hopping towers all over the place.

Edit: I guess this one was part of a project with plans to expand on it. If that's ever the case, do me a favour and mark them with a sign or something, otherwise shit's getting torn down.

Yeah, I was just entering the addy that's on the first page of this thread, but Fiendcraft.net is working fine for me. Can anyone direct me to some suger cane at all? I want to make a map so I can find where stuff is.

[CitizenZ]

Its creative. use /i item# # of items (up to 64) to spawn it. Unless it has changed since the last time i got on.

We should do that. Assuming TNT will ever work again, that is.

[Grandmaster_Skweeb]

So it seems the new release of Bukkit addresses the nasty memory leak issue that plagued it. Fifth, when/if you kick that in can you lemme know how much a difference it makes?

S'always nice to have input before I make the time to kick it into action on mine.

[EVILNess]

I went out and cleared a nice spot for us to build a town, and not one of you mother fuckers has done anything about it.

yea tell me where and I am all for that. though I'd prefer one thats not in a creative mode map. Heck I'd like full on survival, make an awesome walled city with guard towers to snipe creepers

[CitizenZ]

I went out and cleared a nice spot for us to build a town, and not one of you mother fuckers has done anything about it.

I would love to help with a town. Its just, knowing how to find the town is kinda important.

And sorry if I double posted this, I did this 10 min ago and now its not showing up, so I'm redoing it.

Edit: I agree with Aerozord. But we can get a general layout done in creative, so we know what we're doing when we get to survival.

[Flarecobra]

I thought it was going to be on a seperate map or something.

[EVILNess]

Fifth could just turn on monsters in the Forbidden Lands.

And Chainmail.

[Aldurin]

And the fact that using spawned spawners we can hold them off using the patented Wall of Pigs.

EDIT: I also second a non-creative town, with monsters to fend off. But since certain building resources would be out of the question then maybe you can set up some kind of reward system or trade system where we sacrifice X diamonds for Y [impossible/impractical building block]. If the currency is diamond then either diamond block uncrafting should be disabled or no diamond (come to think of it there's been too much diamond lately between my project and Thad's obsessive-psychotic project, so forcing some change would be nice.)

/warp onette

[Aerozord]

Fifth naming the entirety of a map, isn't really giving a location.

also

we have /warp working? can we set warps or only use them?

[BitVyper]

You can use /sethome, but /setwarp is op only. You can still use any warps we make though.

[CitizenZ]

Ah. Thanks. And to Ness: epic spot for a town. Once I have time I will begin construction immediately.

[Aerozord]

You can use /sethome, but /setwarp is op only. You can still use any warps we make though.

cool cool... Fifth could you please post a list of the warp points? I'd be happy to do screen shots and/or videos of them too if you'd like

[Aerozord]

another issue with a creative mode town just occured to me, there is no reason to actually use it. No enemies to guard against, no supplies to share, no mines to dig, or animals to farm

[Aldurin]

To your first post: /listwarps.

To the second, I'm cool with a normal town, but it'd have to be a different map because if FL was turned to normal we would have creative smuggling and/or my tower being stripped down for the diamond.

[Fifthfiend]

Yeah no FL is totally not ever getting turned noncreative at this point, that would be crazycakes.

another issue with a creative mode town just occured to me, there is no reason to actually use it. No enemies to guard against, no supplies to share, no mines to dig, or animals to farm


You can do pretty much all the stuff you just said on your own in non-creative-mode minecraft.

There's no reason to build a town ever in minecraft, much as there's no reason to do anything ever in minecraft, except for the one reason that you know, it's fun to do it.

And yeah I will still come up with a noncreative town map for you people once the other maps are back (I know, promises promises).

[Aerozord]

There's no reason to build a town ever in minecraft, much as there's no reason to do anything ever in minecraft

shelter from mobs

storage

shared resources with other players

access to a mineshaft

Much the same stuff you do by yourself. Whole reason I mentioned it is because I was about to build a store house for the town and, oh wait we have give command, then thought of digging a mine but again, no reason to dig if you have the give command, then what about defense against mobs but, no, peaceful

[Marc v4.0]

When we get the regular worlds added back in, we need a town on one of our monster-enabled worlds

[Flarecobra]

Arcanos would be the best bet, I imagine.

[Aerozord]

is there a way to adjust difficulty or is it a binary monsters on/monsters off. Cause I would be all for cranking it to nightmare mode so working together is more of a necessity

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

If anyone's in FL and they notice a gigantic rectangle of stone down the bottom, yeah, that was me. Epic castle is under construction!

EDIT; Also is it possible to get some large scale map pics for FL and Zeal? I really like seeing what kind of crazy shit people have built and where it all is.

[Fifthfiend]

is there a way to adjust difficulty or is it a binary monsters on/monsters off. Cause I would be all for cranking it to nightmare mode so working together is more of a necessity

"Nightmare Mode" would be building a town on Munda.

[Flarecobra]

You can adjust difficulty in singleplayer, but multiplayer it's either peaceful or "Hard" difficulty.

[CitizenZ]

"Nightmare Mode" would be building a town on Munda.

When it and the other worlds get back, will that one be back to eternal darkness?

[Fifthfiend]

God willing.

[Aldurin]

I would be cool with a Munda town, since what I have going there is insignificant as where I still have stuff to work on in Arcanos (strip clubs aren't going to build themselves).

[Flarecobra]

In Zeal... I'm building up some small "elemental" temples. Aside from the fire island, I won't lay claim to any of the islands that they'll be in. They'll just be fun little "What's this?" things.

And on the islands, I won't make them on islands that have stuff built on them already.


And I had a little Lore-esque idea conserning the Faith Plates. Perhaps they could be a "Lost Technology" that was recently discovered?

[EVILNess]

I would like to point out that there were no monsters on the server I had running and you guys seemed to like building towns just fine.

You have spoiled them Fifth.

Spare the rod, Fifth. Spare the rod.

Highly portable lost technology. I've been using them for fast travel and easy exploration of megastructures all day. :D

I did that on Terra before it was cool

4 seperate temples?

[Marc v4.0]

Yeah

[Fifthfiend]

Man whoever did the 2x3 demonstration door needs to explain to me how they get the fucking middle pistons in the set that push/pulls the fake surface to move because those goddamn things have got me stumped

eDIT:

Also something's broke on your demonstration model as concerns the upper left block that I can't figure out.

[Marc v4.0]

Somebody fucking hosed around with the timing on the repeaters on the left side, hence the fuck-up in the door timing.


edit: But I can't fix it because, lawl, minecraft.net not responding


And someone has messed with the redstone configuration at the top. What the hell, guys?

[Fifthfiend]

Sorry about the stuff at the top, I was trying to figure out what makes it work and punched some wires and tried to put 'em back how they were.

I def didn't jack around with any repeaters though.

[Marc v4.0]

It is all fixed now, in any case.

[Fifthfiend]

YOU STILL HAVEN'T EXPLAINED HOW THE MIDDLE ONES WORK

[Marc v4.0]

they work when the whole thing is put together right

[Fifthfiend]

THE XYLOPHONE I'M GOING TO MAKE OUT OF YOUR BONES WILL WORK WHEN IT IS PUT TOGETHER RIGHT

[Marc v4.0]

well I don't know where it is or I would have fixed that shit for you DAWG

Whoever put this here, could you please remove it? It's way too close to my project and may force me to squeeze in more than I need. A track through or close around can be worked out after I'm done.

Oh and Shy are you ok with me filling the middle of your bridge to my bridge with glowstone? Just so it fits the theme it's entering.

[Shyria Dracnoir]

Yeah, go ahead

[Flarecobra]

Is the server down?

[Doc ock rokc]

Oh yes Shy I forgot to tell you Your Project is finished. It's a little larger then expected but it should do.
Also I made it with a bit of flare when it...works.

[CitizenZ]

Is the server down? It said "Internal exception:Java.Net.SocketTimeoutException: Read Time Out"

[Fifthfiend]

The server IS down. It seems like the problem is the recurring memory error on the version of bukkit we're running so i'll def. have to upgrade this weekend to keep this happening again.

EDIT: back upp.

[Marc v4.0]

Just tell me where the gate is and I'll fix the thing

[Fifthfiend]

It's meant to be in my house in New Hamlet, you'll see where if you head up there. It's not even really fully assembled, it's more in the test and see if I can figure out how this works phase.

[Fifthfiend]

FYI guys I'm doing some updates on the web page particularly to the rules section, take a look at those, feel free to make any comments you have about 'em here.

[Aldurin]

I just noticed the website just now, and cool. Also kinda funny that on my first visit I find that I'm the subject of the recent post.

E: meet the gang link 404's me, is it just under maintenance right now?

[Fifthfiend]

"Meet the Gang" doesn't exist yet, I'm thinking it'll be like the roughly community-related page, probably have a link there back to this thread, maybe like stuff about some of ya'll who play here, that kind of thing.

Explore will probably end up being the assorted screencaps / maps of stuff on the various worlds. Rules is obv. rules, and About is where i'm gonna lay out all the stuff about like, how the server runs and how things are customized and which players can do what and how you get added to lists and all that kind of thing.

If you know someone who wants to spend the probably hundreds of hours custom-coding us a server/client package that will run this mod in multiplayer while also allowing us to use all of the other various server mods I will be thrilled to implement it.

[Aerozord]

I was thinking some third party program running on its own, like steam, yahoo, skype, ect

[Fifthfiend]

I was referring to the Aether mod, voice chat as far as I know is an extremely reasonable request that I fully support and would quite like to do.

O ya. Didn't think about the difference between single player and multiplayer. lol sorry

[Fifthfiend]

Holy shit guys I just fucked up pretty bad.

I told shy/cit I was taking the server down for a couple minutes. I had to delete a folder to run what should have been the final test on getting the Sphereworld added. HOWEVER, I instead deleted a huge chunk of the folder that the server and all the critical files reside in including the map files and the most recent backups.

I do have backups but they're each about a week old so basically I just fucked over everyone who's done any kind of work on things in the last week.

I am gonna get the server back up as fast as I can and do whatever I can to make up the difference for everyone whose stuff I just fucked up and just holy shit I am so so sorry.

[Fifthfiend]

ANYONE CONCERNED ABOUT THE PRE-1.7 WORLDS: THEY ARE FINE NOTHING HAS HAPPENED TO THEM THEY ARE ON LOCK DOWN

[akaSM]

Can't you use one of those "restore deleted files" apps?

[Aldurin]

I am gonna get the server back up as fast as I can and do whatever I can to make up the difference for everyone whose stuff I just fucked up and just holy shit I am so so sorry.

eh, I was doing very minor stuff, and besides there's no stupid rail lines to remove from my general proximity.

Maybe backup the server tri-weekly?

[BitVyper]

It's not a matter of backups. Between the two of us, we backup the server lots. It's that the backups were largely in the folder that got fucked. That's being changed.

[Flarecobra]

There was also a chest under the spawner that I cracked open to reveal some building material (ladders, glass, cobblestone, coal and et cetera) and a cake. It's like the Yogods knew I wanted to move in and left me a housewarming gift.

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

[Fifthfiend]

SERVER BACK UP FROM OLD RESTORE.

EVERYONE WHO SERIOUSLY GOT SET BACK LET ME KNOW, AS OF NOW MY LIST IS HAWK, FLARE, DOC, AND NESS

Since things were as fucked as they were I ended up transitioning the server up to the latest version of Bukkit and doing some other things. Anyone interested is encouraged to head up from Zeal to the next level of the tower.

For the people who lost a lot of their work I'm gonna be giving you guys access to some of the admin tools to hopefully help you get up to speed quicker, mainly superpick (//) infinite blocks (/i [blockname] -1) and jumpto (hold compass and rightclick and/or look at your target and type /jumpto). Also gonna be checking in and seeing if there's anything I can do with the more complex admin shit to get your stuff rebuilt.

Eugh this is gona take sooooo long! If anyone's not busy and feels like helping a guy out flattening out a 50x70 area of land I'd much appreciate it.

EDIT; Ok, nevermind, Fifth used his PHENOMENAL COSMIC POWERS! to level the island for me. Now just have to rebuild the huge ass walls and the central tower.

[CitizenZ]

Fifth, is it within the grasp of the Ancient Server Magiks to transform a layer of air into cobblestone?

[Aldurin]

Actually, looking at my structures, it set me back a good bit more than I thought (some tedious tower improvement is gone, one large room and some road stuff too).

E: also I'm going to occupy spaceworld where it's right above my diamond tower, so you may want to reference coordinates beforehand.

You're going to do that. Right?

Right.

I'm glad we could talk about this.

[Bells]

Just tossing that out there... since i haven't bee able to stay around for long, is there anybody here interested on working at the underground levels of my Crystal Tower?

Right behind Nick's Tower, there is a pathway of Trees that go underground, follow it and you will end up at the Ice Station, under the Crystal Tower. Below it there is an unfinished level.

The tower itself was supposed to be a Mine Cart Station i never got around to work on (the tower is at the very limit of Height for the map, so the station would have to be right under the Platform, surrounded by the Waterfalls.)

And the underground, was supposed to be a complex of Rooms and pretty much any thing anybody wants to do there...

[Nikose Tyris]

That's on the old maps atm, Bells. Unless I missed Fifth puttin' them all back up?

[Thadius]

Fifth. There has to be a later, non-corrupted backup that you can use, right?

Because if there isn't, it doesn't look well for your continued EXISTENCE.

[CitizenZ]

Ya Fifth, I wasn't thinking and I went in that portal by FL spawn, and there is no exit portal. Help please?

And the new world above zeal is awesome

[BitVyper]

Sorry, I'd come help you guys out, but I'm not gonna be back on my computer for a week or so, and I can't seem to get Linux Minecraft to run.

Fifth. There has to be a later, non-corrupted backup that you can use, right?

As far as I'm aware, there is not. Fifth is giving people access to some op commands for fixing their stuff though. Like I said, I can't do it myself just now 'cause I'm lacking access to all my shit.

[Thadius]

You might be the only mod left alive at this rate.

[Shyria Dracnoir]

Greetings Gentle Readers,

If you are reading this, you are doubtless familiar with my writings concerning the Affair of the Amulet of Yendor which recently reached a vaunted milestone of becoming the number one tome on the New Ork Times' weekly Bestseller compilation. As a result, I feel no need to reiterate on that adventure here; those who have read it will find it old hat and those who have not will naturally not wish to have their future enjoyment spoiled.

However, in the course of transcribing the account of my quest for the Amulet I found myself genuflecting on some of the earlier ventures that helped shape my adventuring career long before I ever learned the name of Yendor. While the spoils of these exploits often amounted to little more than trifles, they were still vital stepping stones on the path to glory. Many of the tricks I learned (and mistakes I made) in my greenhorn days still serve me well. It is my hope that by recounting these adventures in print, I might serve as an example to other budding archaeologists who are still in the process of carving a name for themselves on the rock of ages.

To that end, I relate the following tale.

Before Yendor, there was another name that captivated my imagination and drove me to the point of obsession. This name was Kre'pher. The old tales described Kre'pher as a powerful black mage of a once-great desert kingdom who rode his realm's twilight years into infamy and threatened to cast the whole world into eternal darkness before being dispatched by a band of chosen heroes. To this day the desert locals curse his name and insist that some traces of his evil linger in the strange beasts that now roam far beyond the reach of the dunes of Necromunda. I dreamed of one day plunging beneath the desert sands to recover the treasures of this lost kingdom and perhaps come face to face with Kre'pher's power for myself.

Two years after my graduation from Orksford I found this dream becoming reality, thought not in the way I originally anticipated. It came to my attention that a miner from the arcadian village of Vaux-la-foret had been digging an exploratory ore shaft when he stumbled upon the remains of what appeared to be an ancient library complex. He had barely gotten beyond the first room before the undead hordes infesting the complex forced him to retreat. I quickly assembled a team and set out for the village.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc230/Shyria_Dracnoir/2011-07-24_00002.jpg

Once the skeletons had been cleared out, we set to work examining the library's forgotten catalog. It was a difficult endeavor; many of the codices suffered from severe water and fungal damage and threatened to crumble before the translator's eyes. However, what readable texts we did recover made repeated references to Kre'pher, a strange thing considering that this site was thousands of miles away from Necromunda. Convinced that we were on to something big, the expedition pressed deeper into the ruins.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc230/Shyria_Dracnoir/2011-07-24_00005.jpg

After what seemed like an eternity groping through narrow torchlit passages we came to the entrance of a great room. One of the kobold diggers, perhaps anxious for the first pick of the loot or simply eager to find some breathing room, sped through the doorway...

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc230/Shyria_Dracnoir/2011-07-24_00006.jpg

That was the last we saw of the poor fellow. He plummeted down this pit trap into the depths of the earth. We made several attempts to recover the body, but finally had to settle for sealing the shaft and saying our last respects. Given his race's great affinity for the underground, at least it was a familiar death.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc230/Shyria_Dracnoir/2011-07-24_00007.jpg

In hindsight, perhaps he was one of the lucky ones.

SERVER BACK UP FROM OLD RESTORE.

EVERYONE WHO SERIOUSLY GOT SET BACK LET ME KNOW, AS OF NOW MY LIST IS HAWK, FLARE, DOC, AND NESS


Can I be added? Lost a lot of my floating castle foundations. And also, is it within your power to transform a predefined area of air into cobblestone? Thanks!

[Flarecobra]

Thanks to Kray, we now got Karkat.

[Doc ock rokc]

Lesson learned the Copy command Puts all Pistons facing downward... So DON'T turn on my elevator.

[Thadius]

That implies that you've either made a highway to hell or a very efficient hero-smasher.

One that we can't activate because you still use switches or buttons. We TOLD you about the pressure plates and how they were better.

[Aerozord]

Lesson learned the Copy command Puts all Pistons facing downward... So DON'T turn on my elevator.

the what command?

[Revising Ocelot]

Thanks to Kray, we now got Karkat.

If other people hadn't already beat me to the punch, I'd do the other troll sprites as well. I hadn't seen any Shrugkats around the internet though, heh.

[Doc ock rokc]

its more of if you press the button the incorrectly pasted pistons will destroy the elevator that I worked so hard to fix

[Verifiedz]

Hey Fifth. I came up with an idea for another section of the world. Maybe under Forbidden land we could make the nether. Would that not work or is it a good idea?

[CitizenZ]

Could you whitelist a friend of mine? I his name is Darkdog007. Thanks!

[Fifthfiend]

NOPE.JPG

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

Aaaaaand we've got a whole new level of terror beyond "Shit-Your-Pants-Creeper." Just what we all wanted I'm sure.

[Flarecobra]

*Takes aim at their heads...*

Looks like aliens.

And apperentally they're called "Endermen" (http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Endermen)

[Melfice]

And then it turns out those are the NPC villagers. =3

Probably not, though.

[Flarecobra]

Or Herobrine's true form.

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

And then it turns out those are the NPC villagers. =3

Probably not, though.

Yeah, if their village was IN HELL!

[rpgdemon]

I honestly don't think that they look creepy at all. More curious, and very interesting.

[Aerozord]

yes what they should do is have them make NPC villages, but during the day the village has no one in it, and at night, them

[CitizenZ]

I bet they are mobs that build a fort, spawn more of themselves, then form a huge angry mob and attack you.

[Flarecobra]

yes what they should do is have them make NPC villages, but during the day the village has no one in it, and at night, them

What a terrible night to have a curse.

[EVILNess]

What a terrible night to have a curse.

http://images.pictureshunt.com/pics/i/internet_high_five-2496.jpg

[Doc ock rokc]

I wonder how dangerous they are? do they just move some blocks around or do they wish to attack you. are they nutura untill you shoot them or are they gunning for you all the time?

[CitizenZ]

And can they destroy your buildings?

That would be so scary. I would have a sealed obsidian chamber for my bed.

[Aerozord]

They kind of remind me of these guys (http://gonintendo.com/wp-content/photos/ojDD6_1.png)

[Flarecobra]

http://images.pictureshunt.com/pics/i/internet_high_five-2496.jpg

http://sadpanda.us/images/583414-RFE1NGA.jpg

[Aerozord]

oh man I cant believe this didn't occur to me, its called a enderman

if you are like me and didn't notice it right away, just add sl to the begining

[Flarecobra]

You know, looking at them closer... they almost look like they used the Squid as a base...

http://media.minecraftforum.net/content/images/2011/07/18_3.png

Course, for all we know right now, they just used it just so it has a texture, and may not nessessarly be indicative of the final apperance.

Or they are just squidmen.

[Arhra]

Wheeee, I have partially rebuilt and fully automated Test Chamber #2.

Next steps: insert snarky signs, finish installing walls/ceiling/floor.

But that's a thing for tomorrow.

[CitizenZ]

You said you need screenshots and such for the "explore our worlds" section?

http://sadpanda.us/images/584579-ULJC0QR.png

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

So... somebody built Middle Earth (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhksNvUwaRc&feature=player_embedded). Yeah. Might as well call it a day right now, because nothing anyone else ever does on this game will ever compare to this.

[Verifiedz]

Oh god wtf is axion? I don't remember what its called. I wud've been stuck there if it werent for arhra. Geeze u gotta put up signs around the portals

[Aerozord]

So... somebody built Middle Earth (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QhksNvUwaRc&feature=player_embedded). Yeah. Might as well call it a day right now, because nothing anyone else ever does on this game will ever compare to this.

I dont know, I kind of wanted to make Autocthon

[Arcanum]

Be careful where you look. (http://notch.tumblr.com/post/8208212863/the-psychology-of-the-reticle-and-the-feeling-of)

I made the Endermen freeze and turn towards you when you look at them. As long as you look straight at them, they stand perfectly still and look straight at you. As soon as you look away, they will run (very fast) towards you. And they teleport.

[Aerozord]

so yes, it is a homage/rip-off of the slender man

[Flarecobra]

That'd make killing them easy. Lock them up then fill them with arrows/rush them with a sword.

[Marc v4.0]

That'd make killing them easy. Lock them up then fill them with arrows/rush them with a sword.

Except they teleport and move blocks

[Flarecobra]

Ahem: "They stay frozen as long as you keep looking at them."

Suggests otherwise.

[Fifthfiend]

Except they teleport and move blocks

BUT not as long as you're looking right at 'em which locks 'em into place so as long as you're looking at 'em from within arrow range you're good.

Of course they could also be well outside of arrow range off in the distance somewhere and be on your nuts as soon as you flick the focus dot over 'em.

Especially if you're walking around at night, where you could probably real easily "look" at one without having realized it.

[Aerozord]

one thing is if they are like ghasts, and glass blocks their vision, thus doesn't count as looking at. Plus what if there is more then one, and say moving your aim to one puts the other out of view.

Worst of all is that while freezing them adds to the horror, what makes them dangerous is how unlikely that is. You move your camera and catch a glimpse of them but of course your reaction is a second off, when you look back they are gone. It will be rare that you manage to notice a black figure at night quickly enough to maintain your camera on them.

[edit} though we are assuming they are hostile mobs at all

[Marc v4.0]

Yeah, clearly they won't won't attack you as soon as you attack them just because you are starring at them.

Have fun with that one.

[Flarecobra]

Normally, they're docile. THey only turn hostile when you look directly at them.

That'd make them more akin to a Witch in Left 4 Dead.

[Loyal]

Something tells me Notch was inspired by this fellow. (http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-173)

[Kerensky287]

Something tells me Notch was inspired by this fellow. (http://scp-wiki.wikidot.com/scp-173)

I think he was much more inspired by this fellow. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ti-DYUnVr30&feature=player_profilepage#t=194s)

EDIT: Better example. (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zqQIVmauiXI&feature=player_profilepage#t=377s)

[Aerozord]

guys its got blank features, nearly impossible to see, elongated limbs, and is just two letters away from slenderman

[Melfice]

AND Notch said it's inspired by slenderman.
Supposedly on Reddit, but I can't find the thread.

But go on and continue speculating. Notch might be wrong... ;)

[Aldurin]

I'll never be able to have monsters on in unmodded Minecraft ever again. I mean holy fuck they flip their shit and try to kill you the moment you look away.

The moment it's released, I'm gonna find what their spawning parameters are, light the fuck up around my place in Arcanos (Necro may be too late at that point) and keep my render distance low.

Oh wait that's a good question, do endermen respond to your staring at them if they're outside your render range?

[Doc ock rokc]

Yeah man what the fuck is their "targeting" distance. I think double teaming them will be immensely easy. Maybe we should take on groups in pars. One standing way the fuck back and watching them while the other kills them.

[Marc v4.0]

I don't understand why any of you would entertain the thought, for a second, that provoking them wouldn't immediatly override the 'freeze when you stare' behavior.

This level of completly missing the point is astounding

[Melfice]

Possibly because, so far, no further information has been released.
It seems logical that they'd go hostile when you attack, but then... it's also logical that obsidian would fragment if somebody would so much as intensely stare at it. (slight exaggeration)

As it stands right now, endermen freeze whenever they're being directly looked at. Period.
That's all we know.

Not saying you're wrong, not saying you're right.

[Nikose Tyris]

Also Relevant: Notch's ability to completely overlook obvious details, release updates riddled with awful, awful bugs.

Prediction: Notch fucks up his code, looking straight at a single Endermen triggers ALL Endermen everywhere to respond at the same time, turning to stare at you. Moment you look away, ALL ATTACK.

Invisi-Edit: Actually shit that'd be amazingly horrifying, I want to see that now.

[Aldurin]

I really want to know if they can see through glass (if yes then holy fuck so screwed).

But yes, I too expect glitches that make them drastically more horrifying.

[CitizenZ]

I wonder if they can teleport through a solid wall. Like, if you see them from a window in your house, will it appear inside, or stop outside?

[Loyal]

Not saying you're wrong, not saying you're right.
Or they continue attacking after you're dead and locate you once you've respawned to continue the hunt.

[Aerozord]

I hope they attack in some unique way. One nice thing about minecraft is none of the mobs attack the same. Hope its something unique like, the dont so much attack, as they try to build a prison around you, or transport you to nether or something

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

Maybe he should have made them like Weeping Angles and have them displace you in time or something? Oh man I just had the greatest idea ever; Minecraft combined with the Resequence engine. Holy fuck!

[Aldurin]

We gather here again, but this time for the sad report of our latest environmental efforts.

http://i841.photobucket.com/albums/zz339/EvilEarl/2011-07-31_002049.png

A wildlife preserve was set aside and secured to protect the fragile and misunderstood spycrab. Clearly a noble effort, one of our best engineers was contracted to design the place.

And then a certain SOMEONE came along . . .

http://i841.photobucket.com/albums/zz339/EvilEarl/2011-07-31_003057.png

and she decided to render the entire property devoid of wildlife.

http://i841.photobucket.com/albums/zz339/EvilEarl/2011-07-31_002924.png

This is why we can't have nice government-funded ecology programs.

[Flarecobra]

On the plus side, spycrabs make EXCELLENT sources of heat, and burn for a good amount of time.

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

So, where is everyone? I know I was away for a while but I've been back on the last 2 days or so to rebuild my lost castle and the server is dead. What's going on guys?

[Aldurin]

Aether mod, among other shit.

[Aerozord]

my actual computer crashed, haven't been on ANYTHING in about a week. Worst of all I forgot none of my worlds were backed up, so now it is all gone :(

[Melfice]

Not like I've been playing on FifthFiendCraft, but I've mostly put Minecraft away until 1.8 releases.

[Flarecobra]

RL issues squashing creativity.

[CitizenZ]

Dont really like creative worlds b/c challenge is gone. Waiting to see if the Terranian empire is put back up.

[Fifthfiend]

Bein' a lazy shitty uninvolved admin, tellin' myself i'm gonna get terra back up then not playin cause if I do I'll be yellin at myself for not gettin terra back up

[Aldurin]

So . . . does that mean we get Terra back soon?

[BitVyper]

By the by, if you have memory problems when running Minecraft, you might find this (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/350344-allocating-more-memory-to-java-windows/) helpful.

[Fifthfiend]

UGH because I need to start laying some hard deadlines or something I am gonna say uh... 2PM tomorrow as the time when I undertake the undertaking of bringing terra etc. back online. Expect the server to be inaccessible from that time to at least a couple of hours later.

We are a couple days off from the Six-Monthiversarry so that should be a nice way to celebrate.

This gets more likely the more people hassle me so if it's after 2pm tomorrow (pacific time) and i'm not working on the server then hassle me is what you should be doing.

[Aldurin]

*Loads +5 Shotgun of Greater Hassling*

[CitizenZ]

I will prepare the demons of hassling.

[Shyria Dracnoir]

Fifth, I got stuck on your footy bahootie Axiom server before I could set my home. Can I get some help getting back to the Forbidden Lands?

[Fifthfiend]

hahahahahaha I am shamefully proud of the overwhelming success of the server-trolling effort that is the Axiom portal.

i'm at work but as soon as I'm not I will get you portaled out assuming anyone else who's opped doesn't get to it first

[Shyria Dracnoir]

Don't get me wrong, it's a nice place, I'd just like to get back home.

[Fifthfiend]

HMMMM i'll get on the console there should be a way to get you out from there.

Don't go nowhere for like a couple of minutes.

EDIT: lol looks like you've already left the server, I'm in on the console now so get back on and give me a holler.

[Nikose Tyris]

I've been on Axiom for a while, I love it. I've built a full sized villa with natural home grown farm on the side.

I learned afterwards that I had spawn commands and it got even better.

[Shyria Dracnoir]

Sorry, had work as well.

[Fifthfiend]

NP. You should be opped now so whenever you get back on do like, /tp [yourself] [anyone playing who's not on axiom], that should get you out.

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

What is the Axiom server, where's the entrance to it and why is there no exit?

[Arhra]

NP. You should be opped now so whenever you get back on do like, /tp [yourself] [anyone playing who's not on axiom], that should get you out.

REAL MEN uses the direct coordinate teleportation.

The danger of apparating inside solid rock is one of the spices of life!

(coordinate teleport works like this: "/tp 108,50,-10:Zeal" NO SPACES)

It's also handy if there's no-one on, I guess?

[Aerozord]

What is the Axiom server, where's the entrance to it and why is there no exit?

I kind of like the idea that there is a mysterious world no one knows when or where it appeared, why its there, and those few that make it inside never return

[Fifthfiend]

Server's down, Terranization in progress.

[Flarecobra]

Yay! Back to the Terran Mines. :D

[Aldurin]

how long until we mine the main area of Terra to the point where we get the largest hollow cavern ever manually dug out in minecraft?

[Fifthfiend]

server's up

terra's back

zeal's... hiddddden

Homes/warps gone, they may/will be coming back.

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

Wandered into Necromunda, got stuck there cos there's no exit portal... or any other signs of human habitation apparantly. Made a small mineshaft instead. No idea how to even get back to Forbidden Lands even if I could get back to Terra, we need like an interdimensional map or something now.

Speaking of I also set about mapping Axiom, until Arhra teleported me away somewhere so I still have the map on my Axiom dude instead of putting it back in the starting chest as I'd intended.

[BitVyper]

There's a portal right at the spawn. I just checked to make sure it was functioning.

[Aerozord]

how long until we mine the main area of Terra to the point where we get the largest hollow cavern ever manually dug out in minecraft?

have you seen Moria in the Lord of the Rings server? I dont think we will ever even get close to that thing

[Fifthfiend]

There is now a legit way to zeal

you gotta look for it though

[Aldurin]

There is now a legit way to zeal

you gotta look for it though

I'll just look it up on the wiki.

[Aerozord]

we have a wiki?

[CitizenZ]

Infernium is apparently a regular map with no exit portal. Hawk is trapped in it.

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

Yeah when I said Necro before I meant Infernum. The Nether has ceased to be and instead it's just normal survival world with regening health and mobs.

[Flarecobra]

So, got a metric buttload of redstone.

Anyone needs some, let me know.

[CitizenZ]

I shall bring gifts of lapiz lazule (or whatever it is) to the new city, that has been so boldly founded in the most inhospitable of places.

[Flarecobra]

Lapis Lazuli. :P

And I made a little delivery of cobblestone for those who want to use it. At the very least, it can be used to make safety walls.

[Fifthfiend]

Not-Infernum is now your town map, go to, uh, town

[Shyria Dracnoir]

I have to say, for a former hellscape the map formerly known as Infernum has some nice scenery.

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc230/Shyria_Dracnoir/2011-08-07_00001.jpg

http://i212.photobucket.com/albums/cc230/Shyria_Dracnoir/2011-08-07_00002.jpg

There's another tunnel that goes behind the waterfall on the left in the first photograph up to the side of a hill near the town site. Not sure where the bottom tunnel goes yet.

[Thadius]

I WANT MY TERRIFYING HELLSCAPE BACK!

THERE WAS AN OBSIDIAN BASE IN THERE, YOU FUCKER!

I HAD THINGS IN CHESTS I VALUED IN THERE!

RIP! TEAR! KILL!

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

Town now has a road from the spawn down to the main square, or at least as close as I can build to the spawn anyway, block placement prevention is on all around for a good distance. I've also been mapping out the area for a good 1k square, I'll leave the map in a chest near the town square, but seeing as it's our only one plase don't take it, unless someone can make copies of it or something.

I have to say, for a former hellscape the map formerly known as Infernum has some nice scenery.



There's another cool little area to the south westish. Funny looking mountains and cool waterfalls are all around this place.

[Doc ock rokc]

I told you that once you got rid of the hell, hell is less hellish

[Fifthfiend]

I WANT MY TERRIFYING HELLSCAPE BACK!

THERE WAS AN OBSIDIAN BASE IN THERE, YOU FUCKER!

I HAD THINGS IN CHESTS I VALUED IN THERE!

RIP! TEAR! KILL!

Actually-Infernum does still exist and will return to you at some point.

[Aerozord]

I suggested making the portal to old infernium hidden in new infernium

Preferably with some temple of doom or something you have to get through to find it

[Fifthfiend]

So let's talk towns.

1. Assuming she wants to be, Shy is now the Master of Towns. I can't do the job because of my tendencies towards authoritarianism and hermitage and I'm not about to trust any of the rest of you to do it. IDK how necessary this position is since things seem to be developing fairly organically but inasmuch as a final decisionmaker is needed it's her.Also she's an op now. Welcome to the team?!

Again this is all on the assumption that Shy wants the job if not then other candidates will be considered. Haven't heard from Ness since I fucked his town out of existence but if he wants to join him and Shy will be co-Townmasters.

2. Town name. SUGGESTIONS

3. World that the town is on name. SUGGESTIONS

[Flarecobra]

Town Names:

Townsville.

Frostbite Falls.

Anywhere.

[Shyria Dracnoir]

Dirt

Or alternatively Twin Falls

[Doc ock rokc]

deter-miner

[CitizenZ]

How about Free Parking?

[Fifthfiend]

Also Arhra has been kind of unofficially an op for a while now so I'm gonna go ahead and announce that as official too.

[CitizenZ]

Ok weird. I just tried to log back on and it said "Connection Refused"

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

Town name;

The Valley

World name;

Frozen Over

And I second having Infernum as a sub world hidden away within this one. So that Hell is Frozen Over.

[BitVyper]

Server is down. Technical difficulties.

[Flarecobra]

World name: Heck.

Ruled by the Prince of Insufficent Light.

[Fifthfiend]

Server's back up. Sorry for the shutdown, had some funky console errors that had to be dealt with.

Made some other tweaks; health regen on Infernum is still on but ratcheted way down so hopefully that will be sufficiently hardcore for you guys. Similar regen settings for Arcanos/Munda. Maybe the settings as they are now are TOO hardcore? Let me know.

Also for those of you who make your way back to the Forbidden Lands they may be slightly more forbidden now. Maybe they aren't though I'm still checking whether I set that up right.

[CitizenZ]

World name: Heck.

Ruled by the Prince of Insufficent Light.

Seconded.

[Kerensky287]

Not-Infernum needs a massive temple complex that houses a portal to an identical temple in Actual-Infernum.

Call 'em Light World and Dark World.

Town is obviously Kakariko Village.

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

Hey Fifth can you add a friend of mine, Cyborgmokey? Told him about our village, he wants to help.

Also we had another creeper attack by the north gate. We really need to secure that section, that seems to be where they're all coming from.

EDIT; Also I changed my mind, town name should just be what my sign first christened it as; Safety. Even if it's not very safe.

[Fifthfiend]

ugh the mine owns but my house is ugly as shit.

Safety.

HAVEN

something-haven

monster-haven

night-haven

sanctuary

yeah, that could work

maybe the world name uh, MIDGARD, and the town name uhhhh, something vaguely norse-ish.

edit: We can name it Onrac, and every couple weeks I can go WHOOPSY-DAISY and flood it with lava or erase it all the way to bedrock level or corrupt two-thirds of the chunks its in.

edit: that was bit's idea btw

[Fifthfiend]

Oh snap so I just remembered today is the one and only

FIENDCRAFT SIX-MONTHIVERSARRY!

It's been a heck of a ride and all of you guys are great.

Your fantastical ideas both in-game and through your input as players put together with my bizarre mood-swings and haphazard management have made what I think is a pretty damn fine server and the most enjoyable thing I think I've ever done which also often resembles work.

I guess I didn't get you guys anything? Wait no I got you guys a totally inadvertent fuckup that turned out to be an awesome new map that you all have taken and are turning into a town, see, that is just how the magic happens.

Really I just want all of you to keep on being you.

[Nikose Tyris]

I owe someone $10 for expecting you to announce a pay-to-play server setup. [/humor]

[Fifthfiend]

I owe someone $10 for expecting you to announce a pay-to-play server setup. [/humor]

Remember what I was just saying in the post right before this one?

Fiendcraft runs on your ideas!

edit:

COMING SOON:

THE FIENDCO ITEM STORE

edit:

so man let me tell you about RANDOMLY DROPPED CRATES

[Aldurin]

My friend got a new account "Bolt187" so in theory bukkit should not freakout about his username anymore. So if you're still running the whitelist then could you please add him? And yes the lack of anti-creeper measures will be a problem in the long run.

EDIT: Server, crashed or something, what happened?

[Fifthfiend]

Sudden server outage, idk why

EDIT: BACK UP

[EVILNess]

FIENDCRAFT SIX-MONTHIVERSARRY!


:argh:

[The Artist Formerly Known as Hawk]

Aaand we have a railway. Well, I have a railway. It leads to Mineshaft Gamma, which is a stripmine inside a castle turret. The drop is long and the stairs are rickety there, so be careful if you enter.

[Fifthfiend]

:argh:

Just for youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

EDIT: that's the name of the town.

MONTHIVERSARRY TOWN

EDIT: not really that's a terrible name

[CitizenZ]

World name: Zadda

TOWN

EDIT: I think this is, shy's place, earl's, aerozord's, citizens' and uh, one other person's I don't know who.

[Aldurin]

which one is the unknown? my friend might have built something after our team exploration of the deeper levels of the town center.

[Fifthfiend]

I think the snow house is zord's, yours is center, shy's is to the left of you, the tower above you is citizens, but idk who the dude at the right is.

[Aldurin]

Oh right, that's hawk's. Surprised you didn't already know.

[Doc ock rokc]

Ok someone on another site requested this and I put in too much time for me not to show it off.
Please not I am not a brony. I kinda like the show but not that much to obsess.

Three months of mining coolness, and awesome updates~
We've kept our selves at peaceful, time off from work to play~
But the bones we've stored is running out, and we can't show off our Gold~
And even though I love my stuff, this game getting old~

The time has come to welcome AU
And all things warm and new,
But it's also time to say goodbye:
It's creepers that must die.
How can I help? I'm new, you see.
What does everybody do?
How do I fit in without /give?
I haven't got a clue!

ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
Let's finish our mining here~
ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here,
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here!

Bringing home the extra ram,
A moderators job begins
And clearing all the gloomy sites
And let the noobs come in!
We move the dust and we clear the white space;
When the users come up, it's servers ready to go!

ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
Let's finish our building here~
ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here,
ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here,
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here!

Little explorers hibernate
Under the dirt and ice.
We wake up all the sleepyheads
So quietly and nice!
We help them gather up their stuff,
Fix their mines below;
We welcome back the update whores
So our numbers can grow!
ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
Let's start our patching here~
ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here,
ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here,
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here!

No easy task to clear the ground,
Plant our tiny seeds.
With proper care and sunshine,
Everyone it feeds.
wood, grains, sugar stalks;
Colorful mushrooms, too!
We must work so very hard,
It's just so much to do!

ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
Let's start crafting here~
ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here,
ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here,
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here!

Now that I know what they all do,
I have to find my place~
And help with all of my heart,
Tough task ahead I face.
How will I do without /give,
Help the earth miner way?
I wanna belong, so I must
Do my best today
Do my best today~~~~~

ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
Let's start crafting here~
ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here,
ADVENTURE UPDATE!, ADVENTURE UPDATE!
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here,
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here,
'Cause tomorrow Hard is here!

How do you know it's tomarrow? I'm looking around for some kind of date, and not finding anything...

Or am I just blind?

And wearing a pumpkin apperentally fools the Endermen. (http://www.minecraftforum.net/news/165-18-updates-endermen-or-farlanders/) Maybe.

Notch is setting up a demo on PAX. So, I shouldn't expect 1.8 to release before August has ended.

In any case, I don't think we should take the "tomorrow" bit too seriously in the first place.

Time to bury my pumpkin supply before it vanishes.

EDIT: Server isn't connecting, what did you do this time?

Connection to server keeps timing out.
