New video of what appears to be the next update's prime feature.

This looks like some kind of buff system, all I could identify was gravity inversion ("hey, let's try this outside!"), water walk, ore finder (that glowy stuff was not new ore it seems) and the other symbols seemed to indicate things like defense, self-luminosity and other things.

I like this.

A buddy and I haven't really gotten too far. We've been fighting off that world eater dude twice a day when we dynamite the orbs and the best we have for anything is demonite. We have yet to get to the actual underworld or mine any hellfire stuff. Good news is he has an orb of light, yet does not have enough mana to use the thing yet. Fun part now is stockpiling demonite ore and scales for some pretty awesome stuff. Too bad he's hogging all the nice gear, but it is his server after all, I guess.

Cool thing? We managed a 4 floor house with an escape route to our grand tunnel and mining zone, not to mention our tower for the merchants. Yes, we have grappling hooks and no longer build wood beams to get back up places. Well, we don't fear the night anymore and the corruption is just a mild annoyance to tread through and we had to to get to a meteor crash. At least it was out there and not on our houses. Treading through the corruption just to get to the dungeon and get to Skeletron is also an annoyance, as the constant delays by devourers and soul eater things get on the nerves, so we end up getting there by day, which sucks.

Log on to Tahr's. Empty donation chests and/or chests inside pillar of corruption.

Learn him who is the boss.

Also, tell him to run the server from the terrariaserver.exe. He then gets access to a 'time' command that lets him set the time to whatever he likes whenever he likes. No more waiting for night time to summon skeletron.

Uh, I'd love to play on the server with everyone else, but there's a tiny bit of a problem. Hamachi keeps telling me that the server is full. No matter what time of day I try to log on to it, it's full.

Edit: By the way, if anyone wants to chat over Steam or something, maybe plan something out, try adding Gaimeboy or Maniacman2030, not sure which one you need to add. I'll probably be on a Terraria bender tonight all by my lonesome.

You should join this

Okay, am now officially adding people to my friends on Steam. Maybe now I can actually participate with the rest of NPF on Steam.

Power issues/brown-outs. Gonna be down until tomorrow.

Back up. 1.0.5 is out.

I've started making an artificial sky jungle west of my place. It's fine so far, but I don't like having to line the bottom of every column of mud with dirt to keep i from falling.

But yeah, I'll start making flat runs so that people can farm it for jungle seeds needed for green dye.

Okay, we have officially hit the free cap for Hamachi networks. I booted one person (I have no idea who, they didn't have a name set) who I don't think I've seen on in a while, but I could be wrong.

If any of you logged into the Hamachi Network but don't really use it at all anymore, it still has you saved in there even with Hamachi off. Toss me your Hamachi IP and I'll either temporarily evict you so that people who want to log in can play, or you can drop out and in yourself. You of course are always welcome to rejoin etc. etc. at a later date.

So, there was a Terraria sale today (started at 75% off, then 50%), I hope I can get on the server tomorrow ^_^. Oh, and I got the 4 pack, in case anyone wants to get the game (sorry, no freebies this time since right now, I'm try to save some money), I got 2 copies left.
