Re: Design Discussion: The Nuking of maps

The problem with just removing the player indicators is that you just need to make a new map, and you are at the centre of the area being explored. It's a bit more work, but doing that with a filled out map in your inventory of the same area would make for having the indicator back again ... That b...

Re: Design Discussion: The Nuking of maps

I LOVE the fact that you are making a game YOU want to play, and see how they mess anarchy play. I was looking forward to hanging up the new maps and showing my kingdom, also planning on playing with them more in general now that F3 is gone. Thank you for trying to find a way to keep them in game fo...

Re: Mc patcher CTM and BTW ?

I had connected textures working in previous release, but haven't tested 1.4.2. I would suggest only checking HD textures / fonts and connected textures. Make sure that BTW is the last mod installed so it will overwrite the other files as needed.

Re: nether chickens: ideas?

Right, if I was using that in a sorting system.

The hoppers are unpowered and the dirt is just a placeholder until I have enough eggs. I see it as the same level of exploit as chickens eating seeds through a corner of a block.

Like Dumbassturtle, I also hate limited timed events even though I do have my TF2 earbuds. I think it could work if it went off of minecraft days. This way if I needed my eastereggs I just needed to play more minecraft, a win win.

I may be wrong, but I believe that if you craft stone bricks, place them and then break them, there is a random chance of getting the cracked or the mossy version.
