Urge to get a Crucible

I just built my first nether portal and dicked around in the nether just long enough to learn that I don't want to be dicking around in the nether without... Extra protection. I've noticed that I've been afflicted with an anxiousness to get a Crucible solely for recycling iron. I don't care about ru...

Re: Jesar's BTW Videos

I got episodes 6<17<23 up, and put episode 22 up as the featured. I'm happy with episodes 22 and 23's format and audio quality, at least for the time being. I may go into further detail with audacity in future parts (when I have the time) and try to normalize the volume and such. Also, I'm going to ...

Re: Jesar's BTW Videos

I kinda forgot to update the op in a little while. Now there are about...21 episodes of A New World. XD (some are still uploading as of this post) There are some changes I want to make. Firstly, I don't really like the title of the series. This is my main and only world, and with the great progess I...

Re: Out of the frying pan (near death stories)

I just got back from my two day (real days, several minecraft weeks) exhibition to acquire diamonds with four shiny gems with me. I had just made a new iron pick, so my iron reserves were low. Not wanting to push my luck in the abandoned mineshaft/cave combo I found the diamonds in, I decided I'd tr...

Re: Auto Vine Farm - Exploity?

Seriously, if this was an exploit, could it be fixed? Pistons can push blocks, saws cut things when they receive mechanical power, etc. This is just a situation where doing this works fine. In fact, I would never use that many damn saws. It's just not economical man. Also, because this is pre-mob tr...

Re: Respawned Near Spawn?

Unless it happens several times with a good bit of time in between each death, I wouldnt be too concerned about it - Random is random, respawning has an equal chance of putting you pretty much everywhere within the hardcore spawn range. Just enjoy your luck for now :) So it doesn't automatically pu...

Respawned Near Spawn?

I'm playing strictly default, and died in a mine shaft to a cave spider. I respawned in some woods next to a river that looked vaguely familiar. I rage quit for two days, then psyched myself up for getting a compass and using the cobble I'd have left from strip mining for the iron for the pick to ma...

Episode 1 part 1 of the new series, A New World, is up. I chose to discontinue the video log because my play style has improved drastically since it began, and I wanted a fresh install of BTW 4.891 with no issues from addons or texture packs getting in the way of the experience. I've decided that I'...

16 is up! I'm planning of doing a default BTW with default texturepack playthrough from scratch with every moment recorded, with maybe some of the digging or tree punching cut out. These will be 20-30 minute videos and eventually will trickle out to project build videos as I get up the tech tree and...

Maybe the inhabitants of the world have yet to have their Newton equivalent to discover the law of lack of gravity. Maybe that's also why all the apples are falling from oak trees.

Re: Stuff that never felt right.

Abandoned mine shafts never seemed right to me. I get that there supposed to be dungeons (as in game play dungeons) but why the broken down, caved in theme? Why have supports? There are no cave ins, no gravity, in minecraft. That's kinda a staple of the minecraft world.

I've watched the first episode and a half of your series man, and am quite enjoying it so far.

Finally Learning (Early Game Spoilers?)

So after starting a whole new world to have BoP generate all of the terrain, I finally learned the hard way (or is it the easy way?) that you use your first stone pick to make three stone axes. This allows you to use one for gathering all the wood you'll need for the first night, and two axes for ki...

You mentioned that you have the 1.6.x launcher? If so how do you get MCPatcher to work. My MCPatcher for version 1.5.2 cannot find the jar even though I point to it, and the MCPatch version for 1.6.x says the addons for HD textures is non compatible. 1.

Re: Jesar's BTW Video Log of Sorts

Updated the Op with three new episodes. I'm not sure if I should keep the video length kinda short like I have been, or go for longer ones. If I did upload longer ones, they might get up to 30 and 40 minutes in length. Also, I installed the updated pandadoku texturepack and installed the biomes a pl...
