Success! Replaced arcane scrolls with wool textures for testing.

(replacement textures (c) Tekei's TBTWTP)

you can also filter witches from other mobs by dropping them to say, a half heart or whatever, then having them flow to another drop that would easily finish most mobs off (say a 10 block fall or something.) let there be a delay between the two drops, so the witches have time to use health/regen po...

This is the instruction page I'm following right now. Mesh's TP has functioning examples of CIT for enchants and tool damage. Other functions include changing textures based on stack size and metadata. Status update: tested enchantments on arcane scrolls. didn't work. metadata/damage values did, ho...

Thanks Magikeh. I can get the Soulsteel tools done now. Are the Arcane scrolls considered enchanted with their respective enchantment? I think I'll try using CIT's enchant method on them first to test, since I haven't really figured out how to metadata with CIT yet (is it damage value? I'm slightly ...

Hi folks. So Mesh has recently introduced me to Custom Enchant Textures for swords and the like. I've decided I really like the effect and want to branch it further for several other tools, as well as Soulsteel and maybe bows/composites(if I figure out how CIT works for bows and their substates). I'...

JEBUS $2000 for a fucking minecraft map!?

People pay for art, I guess.

I'd seriously question forking out that much, but some people have more money than good sense. If they're happy, I don't see why he should stop.

So today I discovered that stakestrings can be crossed.

huh. thats interesting to know. thanks for the info.

roof part of your lake, then melt it using torches/jacklanterns. water needs sky view to freeze over.

Idea: make one of those funny Eskimo fishing huts on the surface of the frozen lake.

For a reliable 10 minute timer I set up n item decay to a T flip flop with a pulse limiter so it only pulses once every 10 minutes. It's only a repeater and a bit of redstone more expensive but it'll give you a lot more time to grow. this works for short input harvesting like piston-based farming l...

hm. might try hooking up decay timer to a monostable>T flipflop. 5minutes of wash and 5minutes of dry.

Is that farm completely pitch black? I don't get the pictures? Yeah this is normally under pitchblack encasing. unfortunately I can't show much of the actual testbuild farm due to it being casing on the outside. The pictures show what the layer setup is and how the water flows down each layer. basi...

Just added a mushroom farm design to my redstoneless builds.

I'm looking for a timer circuit to help me automate the water flush. Have renewable iron, but no endstone yet, so no buddy/detector blocks.

Its a personal mix. I'll see if I can get it uploaded somewhere secure and pm you the details.

Status update: I have a mobfarm. It works. Hooray! After throwing torches everywhere for an in-game week or so, it has a decent output rate during the daytime. Thanks all for your help getting this mobfarm together. Shot of my mobfarm loot collection room http://i.imgur.com/qpYTNku.png Dragon vessel...

Two minor things that get my goat: Candles can't be used to make Jack o' Lanterns and poop can't be used to mass dye wool balls in a cauldron 1) Candles, being an alternative to torches for lighting, can't substitute for torches in crafting lanterns. It bugs me as candles already lose out to torches...

Yoink

Glad to be of service.

Share thy secrets with me.

Not sure if this warranted a new post so I'll share it here I suck at caving for several reasons, probably some of which are "haha noob". As such, I usually have redstone in short supply and thus need to scrimp and save whatever redstone I do have. Here are some designs I use which try to ...

Interesting. Theoretically that would make 4 square platforms with 2-wide traps in between the easiest setup. 4x4 platforms would make 2x4x4+2x2=36 vine traps per level. Bonus Points Time! Using animals to shift mobs: would a central tower containing sheep/pigs make the system any faster? Known anim...

So i'm the only one who builds it in a checkerboard design? 3 by 3? Probably not, but checkerboard doesn't sound like its particularly efficient material or design wise. The vine trap in the middle of each 3x3 hole is rather defunct, plus mobs should be able to cross at the corners rather easily. T...

Yeah maybe look but is not. It is only 1 stack of vine trap on one floor and I dont know how about you but i have almost unlimited amount of cobblestone :o) Hm. Please elaborate. I'm pretty sure I see 2 wide gaps between each platform. each gap should be 4x2=8 vine traps, which makes the outer ring...

Yeah I have problems remembering everything to do in game so I make ToDo lists with signs. I even make it into a feature, and build a "Notice Board". It helps to be able to see everything written down so I can decide what to do next. I mainly use it for future projects, auto chicken feede...

If you are low on vines and don't have the resources to autofarm them try and cover a big wall with them. i had enougth vines planted to almost break a new pair of shears harvesting them and it really helped with making the first levels of my mob tower. And i had a pretty expensive design going wit...

Looks expensive. I estimate 1.3/4 stacks of vine traps per level at least. trying to build 2 levels alone will bankrupt my vine trap stock. I'm still working out how to make the mobfarm work so I'll stick with simpler designs for now.

Hm. I think dawnraider's first setup has me interested. I can reshape it slightly to use 64 vinetraps through 4 strips and 5 strips of blocks. it sounds easy to build on top of later. This has definitely been very helpful. Thanks for all the ideas. I'll soon be on my way to building my first mobfarm...
