EDIT: -snip-

Glad to hear things are coming back together for you.

I believe the yellowish blocks in the "circles" are glowstone and the pillars are jungle logs.

You're looking at the wrong pic.

This is truth. I think you've got the idea. Get rid of the rush by making every tier and every item viable and useful for something.

I feel like that's what FC is doing.

FlowerChild wrote:Give it a try ;)

I never make a judgment on a feature without trying it first. It's a new policy since hardcore bedding.

The man's right. Iron is a ~10 minute endeavor, sometimes even with HCH. The tiers of material are actually finally meaning something.

Wow. You're on a roll, man. This must be really fun and exciting for you. Glad to see all the new features. Thanks for the hard work!

! On that note, is that plugin public? No, it's not I'm afraid, I make it the lazy way so I can't distribute it. If it helps, making your own version, there is an old abandoned mod with publicly available code which you can virtually copy and paste to get the functionality. I don't suppose there is...

Ahem...yeah.

More hype = less game. That's not universal, but true often enough in my experience.

Scratch that. The Sins of a Solar Empire trilogy just went on sale for the same price. It's one of my favorite games of all time, similar to Conquest: Frontier Wars and getting a core game of such scope plus two really beefy expansions for $6.79 is huge. I already own this on the Impulse network bu...

Warning: Image is large.

Insert BTW, and you've got a good idea of what it does for Minecraft.

Wow. Nice job, Kezza. Thanks for the quick update.

EDIT: Hmmm... I must have done something wrong. I can't see the indicator.

Is this true? I thought that was removed way back before release.

Hunting/Gathering? After all, it worked out for our species. Why not Steven-beings?

I had just given up the vigil when you posted this. I will give it all a go tomorrow, but here's a thanks in advance. You've done it again!

I may be a little (or a lot) late for the usual IRC party tonight, but just have one little thing left to tick off on my check list ;)

Heh. Never doubted you, man.

Limping along, crippled from my wounds and trying to find some food with which to heal them, I passed through a swamp. A slime caught wind of me and started in pursuit, but I was too weak to get away, and too weak to fend him off. I quickly succumbed to his gooey mercies... Epicosity. Pure distille...

Wow. This is going to be even more amazing than I realized. Intuitive tangible responses (figuratively speaking) to the state of the hunger bar. Nifty.

I had no idea how huge a task this would become when I first started working on it, but like I said, in many ways it's kind of turned into a rebalance of the entire game in my attempt to get it just right. As a result, the number of variables currently at play is rather overwhelming. The hunger is ...

Man, HCH is sounding more and more awesome the more I hear about it. Can't wait! I'll just take this opportunity to thank you again, FlowerChild, for the amazing job you've done making minecraft survival an actual and enjoyable game. Yeah. I've been trying to think of a way to say I'm super-excited...

I did however get the fat system in today I've never told you, but it cracks me up when you do this. 'Oh, I just implemented (insert awesomesauce-feature here) today. Was gonna do more. But, ya know, I think I'll just kick back on my god-cloud.' Thanks for the hard work. All the nifty blocks have a...

Ok, I just wanted to briefly mention that Hardcore Hunger has turned into somewhat of a rebalance of the entire game :) It's kinda like pulling a thread on a sweater or something, but as I've adjusted one aspect, smaller aspects have come to bother me more, and so on. I've been at it for about 4 da...

Hey guys. So I've got this opportunity to study as an exchange student in one of many Europe's universities. I am studying English philology with German as a second language. So I have revised my options and I can't choose between France and Germany. There are numerous pros and cons in both of them...

Can't remember. I used to be really jazzed in the early days with each new version of vMC. Now, I get really jazzed about new BTW releases, and I groan when vMC updates. There's nothing in the new versions I want, and it just means I have to re-mod the file. Granted, it only takes a minute, but it's...

Wait, what are you saying? That a game feature could have more than a single simple purpose, or that it might actually challenge the player?

O.O BURN, HERETIC!

Just wanted to voice my support for this in any form: suggestion/addon/independent mod. I like dirt as much as the next guy, but I can always tell when certain behaviors feel weird or exploity. I get a guilty feeling about it. That's how I feel about pillaring and building dirt scaffolding around my...
