Re: Flower's Dev Diary (Week Of March 18th)

It's a bit out of the subject, but the FPS in 1.5.X are behaving quite strangely. In a normal solo, I think I did get around 20 FPS (close to what I had in 1.4.X, if not less), but this was just a world to test out the new blocks, and I've not made any other worlds to test further. However, I played...

Re: 4.65 Spoiler Discussion

Oh God... So you hid the most interesting things from the changelog :)
This is truly amazing. I'm really looking forward to this weekend so I can play the update a bit further. Definitely time to start a new world!

Re: 4.64 Balance Observations & Discussion

There's one thing I really like with the coal change. Your wooden tools are seriously revalued as an early-game fuel! I think I never made a wooden sword before...! EDIT: after some more play testing, the coal change doesn't affect much the player. I started out an hardcore map and have survived for...

Re: Vattic's Faithful 32x texture pack [BTW 4.62]

I think yours is more "faithful" to the original. I do get this "derp" feel as you say, and it seems to be closer to the original than Vattic's. However, I'm no texture artist, but the edges of the nose on your Companion Cube look a bit "blurred". Vattic's one really fe...

Woot! :) A new release... as it often happens on Saturdays, it seems to me!
Looking forward to trying it when I'll have some time. Thank you!

Re: Flower's Dev Diary (Week Of March 18th)

Tested on my main world's seed, worked very fine! The seed I use features a village near the spawn, which is now an abandoned village. I also have a Desert Temple not too far, and it was fine as well :) My main world was not harmed as well :) tl;dr: no bugs found! EDIT: have not tested newly generat...

I've had a 1.5.1 server running for my sister and it's quite buggy. I get spammed with "wrong location" messages. 1.5.2, here we go!

Re: 4.62 Balance Observations & Discussion

There's one point of the iron rebalancing thing that I really like: it makes diamond more valuable. Indeed, once you've made your way to your iron pick, diamond seems to be relatively "cheap" in order to make yourself a piece of armor. Rather than spending time looking for iron for your ar...

Re: Silverfish questions (spoilers)

I have not got to the end yet, but I *think* they do spawn in it.
Also, they spawn in Extreme Hills biomes (in such biomes, caves may have "monster egg block", something like that. Stone that yields a silverfish upon breaking)

Re: HC Hunger findings and balance observations

There's one little thing that bothers me with HCH. I still have those old Vanilla habits to eat a bit more than necessary to fill my saturation - or simply I don't pay attention to how many "food points" I do need. Thus, I end up needing to loose fat... which is quite an unpleasant task. I...

Re: Which is harder: Desert or Tundra?

I'd say Tundra. Snow everywhere, similar effects to rain, no villages. Deserts on the other hand are really useful if using windmills and you have a small chance to find a village nearby. Plus, there are no trees to block your view, thus it is easier to defend (I think). The major drawback of desert...
