Version 4.99999A0D Marsupial??!! of Better Than Wolves is ready for download! Download Link -Added a new system for despawning items dropped on player death. Instead of using the regular item despawn timer, these items will disappear one Minecraft day after the player dies (20 minutes real time), r...

I think they are totally the minor problems of beaches. Although I concede that populated villages should probably not have them, but whatever. I like that most biomes have some aspect to them that makes them somewhat dangerous. And most of the threats can be dealt with over time (I'm not sure if wo...

What do you mean? You can fling them, wave them about, AND stand on them.

Nothing useful my ass.

I use them to fight blazes. Not effectively mind you, but some day I will get one of them!

So I made a copper ore block. You guys were right, not all that difficult. I do have a question though. I am attempting to mod 1.7.2 because I would like to do something useful with the new biomes (give them advantages/disadvantages and reasons to find each of them). The current MCP leaves a great m...

Or you can view it as a rude and rather dangerous precedent. The rude part is that asking a question you can easily answer yourself puts the onus of making the effort on whoever answers it rather than making that small effort yourself. The dangerous precedent part is if creating threads for single ...

Does anyone know how jack-o-lanterns and Glowstone fit into hardcore movement? Are they good to walk on, or are they better at the side of a road? I'm sure you could have tested such a trivial thing yourself. Just put them alongside dirt/grass and you'll see since walking on dirt/grass has the defa...

I am now very glad that I restarted my world a few days ago. Same seed, just a fresh attempt. I had already found a village and been to the End before. Looking forward to the new mechanics. I love the new ideas for the axes. I "might" try carving through jungles now instead of going around...

I love not worrying about stuff. That is why I play BTW, there is never, ever any thing to worry about. I am going to update and head straight to the nether to and punch a Pigman, because we're buds like that and can playfully joke around.

Thanks everyone for the replies. So everyone knows, I have been tinkering with programming since I was 14, so about 20 years now. I am almost entirely self-taught and most of my experience has been in C# (which I greatly prefer to Java) and ASP.net. Most of what I have done has been programming for ...

When I started BTW, if I remember right I read through one tutorial on how to create a basic block on the MCP website, and that was it. Everything since has largely been figured out on my own through looking at the deobfuscated source code. I'm still going through that process to this day :P If I c...

As best I can tell Modlodder stopped updating a 1.6 something. The MCp readme has instructions on decompling and recompiling and I think I could figure things like adding a new type of ore, or changing recipes. It's the more complicated stuff like multi-block structures and custom rendering that I d...

I am have trouble finding any tutorials on modding Minecraft that don't involve forge. Does anyone know of any?

Just installed and can't wait to start using some of the new blocks. Would love to see something akin to vanilla carpets. This add-on has almost completely added in the few things I genuinely missed from vanilla. Keep up the good work!

I'm just glad that you have the motivation to work again. I am look forward to completion but as far as I'm concerned the more you refine BTW the more refined RTH will be.

Anybody that cares more about getting the update "on time" than getting a completed project that you are happy with can go jump in a lake, preferably a very cold lake, with lots of hats.

I am thinking about starting over on a great seed I played on once. -905735261117540831 Mineral rich Ravine very close. Best seed I've ever seen

While I am sorry that the situation may mean that BTW is not 100% what you always hoped it would be, I am extremely excited to look forward to Return to Home. I think your skills at game design, especially game balance, have made Minecraft much more enjoyable and I can't wait to see what you can do ...

FlowerChild, would you be all that upset if someone used a lot of your ideas for a mod for a higher version of MC? Assuming of course that they did not steal your actual code?

This happens to me relatively often. it is frustrating, but you just respawn a little ways away and its not like you have anything in your inventory when it happens. It was funny when it happened to Vioki and he was keeping track of the number of their deaths. I think it should probably be fixed, bu...

Thank you everyone for the help. It will be a while before I can try this stuff because I just died and respawned.

Question, Why hold up the 2 high platform with a fence post? is it for decoration or does it serve a purpose

Has anyone seen any good tutorials on finding and killing Endermen? Getting to the End has been stumping me because I have a hard time finding and then fighting Endermen.
