its a city in the desert made out of sandstone (sort of). the walls are just skinned in sandstone with 5 layers of obsidian to prevert creeper breeches and the rest is cobble filler. doing the rough math on the wall i am needing 2,000 obsidian and roughly 8,000 sandstone. and that is just for the walls, gates and corner towers.

now factor in the 50,000 blocks of sand i need to remove to do the sewers. its just going to take too long for me to do so i think ill wait untill the reset and choose a friendlier material. i like the smooth block look but that will have to wait untill lava + water = smoothstone.

I thought creepers couldn't destroy obsidian? So wouldn't you only need 1 layer (five seems downright excessive)?

Obsidian can absorb TNT explosions, nevermind the weaker creeper explosions.

i went with 5 because the terrain around the wall is not flat, if it was i could probably get away with 2 or 3 layers of obsidian.

I'm not understanding? Regardless of the elevation of the terrain, you should still only need 1 layer of obsidian. Unless you're talking about the height of your wall?

General plan is build whatever you like and don't grief basically. Some areas have a theme and have rules to accompany them though.

Bah, patheic lapdogs of the enthroned corpse you so fervently worship.

I hope for your sakes that the mighty Chaos Gods take mercy upon your misguided souls when your beloved Imperium finally concedes to us.

We might one day walk amongst a liberated Galaxy, where the Gods truly reward those who strive for their cause, unlike your false Emperor.

Some of his Sons have seen how he led Mankind astray, and have set to right his wrongs, you know not how much sorrow it brings them to fight the very solidiers they once stood beside, to oppose their brothers whom have been brainwashed by their bastard father.

How much more killing, how many more unnecessary deaths must be witnessed before you see that Chaos is the only way? Under the banner of Chaos Undivided, we shall exact our revenge on those who have wrong us, and build a new Empire in this Galaxy. We shall have order and peace, the likes of which this Galaxy has not seen in millenia! Together, we can build a greater future for Mankind.

Think hard about what I have told you, and you shall see the truth in my words. Do not let the flame of hope for Mankind be snuffed by the lies of a man who now feeds upon thousands of innocents in order to keep his propaganda alive.

Join us, as a soldier of Chaos Undivided, and fight for a liberated Galaxy, fight for a liberated Mankind, fight to bring freedom to a race torn asunder by lies, and you shall be forever remembered as he who stood up, spat in the face of tyranny, and drove a blade through its rotten heart.

Goodbye guys, you've been great friends, i've enjoyed the server very much. Dark decided to banish me for the following reasons:

- Taking cobble from Sniper_Dan, without me owning up to it quickly enough. I apologise.
- Entering Chompy's chest without his permission, I feel quite bad about that, sorry Chompy, I would have returned the items, but now I'm afraid I can't, dark can spawn them for you.

I would like to thank you all, and I hope you realise i'm not a griefer or criminal, I am a nice person who made a few mistakes.

Farewell my friends. I've had a great time.

You have my interest, let me know if you need me to help out. Could just find a texture pack that looks cool, then modify it slightly so everything looks great and it saves all the annoying work such as grass, biome shading, etc.

They're generated as part of the terrain. So "between 640 and 1152 blocks from the origin." Which means they won't appear on the current Dakka server.

there is only one layer thick of obsidian but it is 5 layers high. the wall itself is 4 layers thick (sandstone, obsidian, cobble, sandstone) and it is 10 blocks high. the inside length of each wall is roughly 100 blocks. i could try and post a picture of the pretty excell drawing i did to show the plans for grade and the sewers.

If by "on hand" you mean stuff you are carrying in your inventory, probably not. Although I will edit the inventory files to reset your spawn points to the new spawn point (just to stop people logging in on what has now become a sea bed in the middle of an ocean, or somewhere just way out in the middle of nowhere etc).

Also, when I copy buildings and structures across, I'm not going to go to the trouble of editing or removing chests, so any items in chests in buildings that are copied across will also be copied across.

Assuming the "3 strongholds per server" thing doesn't change, I say that upon the reset we should immediately form a group to find and capture one intact. Something that unique deserves a certain degree of protection IMO.

Also, since there's three, and they're at roughly equal distance apart from each other, they'd form a great base for some kind of factional/territory based conflict. Or possibly just an extended "members club" like the manor has.

The editor that I will use (MCEdit) makes it easy to see how deep buildings go. But you could specify a cutoff point if you want (e.g. the less underground space is copied, the more new untouched underground ores will be available). Though in general I'll try to make educated guesses about the boundaries of places.

So I found a program that works out the location of a world's strongholds based on it's seed. And I found one that spawned on the dakka server...

However, I was swiftly murdered by silverfish upon breaking into the place. It's right on the edge of new terrain/old terrain, so I don't know if it will be significantly cut off or not. I'm gonna head back there now and check it out some more.

Me and corpses went to explore it. It's pretty small and it seems it does run into old terrain and stop short. However we did find a library, though the only stuff in the chest was some paper and a book. Interesting place though.

To those of you who get stuck on the nether roof, I have now built a way for you to keep your stuff if I am unavailable to tp you down.

The way it works is this:

1) If you get stuck on the nether roof...
2) Press F3 to see your co-ordinates and head to x:0 z:0
3) You will see a hole, drop in (but there is still bedrock blocking the way - this is to prevent people going out onto the roof)
4) You can now reach some chests. Place your inventory (including any armor) in the chests.
5) Type /kill
6) When you respawn in the real world, head back into the nether
7) Head to the sanctuary portal room
8) Take the ladder up to the nether roof
9) Retrieve your items from the chests
10) As you were

Hope this is clear, any questions, let me know. :-)

So, managed to finish half of the Mesa, and found out I'm going to need to build a roof for the other half (it actually sticks out of the side of the mountain!) But anyone that wants to see the progress, feel free to come by, grab some cobble, whatever. I've also got a captive spider dungeon that I have no idea what to do with. Anyone know how to make a good Spider grinder?

1.9's being released 11/11/11, which means no pumpkin farming for halloween, so I'm asking for any to be given/lent to us for the party.
other than that, me and corpses need around half a stack of iron and a hell of a lot of lapis.

Yep, 11/11/11 was the originally planned date, but they realised that the 11th is Skyrims' launch and didn't want to be buried under that launch. So they pushed it back a week to 19/11/11.

I played around with the speakers in the speakers in the nightclub to get the look right, the mechanisms are the back are still totally under your control Iustis so change them to your hearts content, do try to leave the front as it is though.

Sure, though Shrike said the area in the center was for the DJ stage and some speakers. I just stuffed all the mechanics and actual blocks into the mob catchers.

Probably will look better that way though.

Post by: Corpsesarefun


Well the area that was mob sinks either side of the DJ stage are now GIANT speakers, feel free to extend then backwards or downwards if you need more space with them.

My only ask is that the note blocks themselves fit the pattern they are in now and the iron gratings and wool blocks are left in place.

Want to know a great way to kill time?

Build a great big net work in the sky over badlands and sit up there with a fishing pole. It is fun to yank the mobs up and watch them fall at night! (watchout for skeletons though, when you pull them they shoot you as they get to your level!!!!)

To build make a ladder going up high enough to hurt stuff and have catwalks 1 block wide.
pics soon!

also If you guyslike this idea I share with you you can use it if you like:

Say there is a griefer who is getting on everybody's nerves... what do you do? Ban him you say? Kick him? no...humiliate him!!!

If he has a building of his own then have outside of it in a bedrock entraoment just abe to see out of it. Then call a "grief the griefer fest" and have him watch in horror as all the noobs attack his structure!

At least some of that was me, I was lost in the nether and accidentally mined into your main room where I found a ghast. I did try to patch up a few things but some things I couldn't.

Already been to The End in the prerelease, no dragons so far and quite a dull place compared to the Nether. Annoying to try to build anything though since it seems like there are literally 20-30 Enders around at anytime. So all my structures have been made of TNT so far.

Quite fun and tends to become the main past time of most of my floating structures in singleplayer.
Spiders are the best for it. Though makes me miss the grappling hook mod, could do the same but it's like having a high powered fishing rod so the mobs zoom over.

I'm always looking for anyone that'd be willing to help dig. I'm about 3/4 of the way done with hollowing out a mountain for my Mesa project, and the work'd go a whole lot faster with even just one more person helping.

Or you could hire yourself out as a pack mule- moving materials from one place to another- or a guard, helping fight off mobs- or work in the Nether. It's pretty well used, but still has the feeling of being more of a 'behind the scenes' place than anything else- might be neat to have your primary house there.

since my internet's down, I've spent a lot of time on CSP. I've made three huge statues of myself, each hitting sky level (one pixel on my skin = 2 blocks by 2 blocks), a medium-sized house with lots of redstone piston work, and a near-impenetrable defence system, providing I have around 7 to 9 men at my disposal:

the attackers attack your house
you close the doorway, open the pit which falls into lava
go through any one of the escape routes to either the giant statues, cave system leading outside, or the mountaintop defence area
on the way there, the attackers face land mine traps
getting past that, a spotter says when they are in the tunnel leading to the defence series
the pistons at the end drop, revealing dispensers on levers controlled in the small trenches out front
TNT blows, dropping gravel from the roof onto your head
and once past that, there is someone above you shooting down
as well as another two either side and three in front
the one on your right can run through a tunnel to attack from the rear
the one on your left is on a steep peak and can blow the bridge up
the two in the trenches can fall back into the iron keep, as well as the fifth on the roof
they lock it down, flicking a switch to push iron over the door and windows
grab diamond gear from the chest inside and try to hold out
2 people can hide round corners and jump in as a second wave
and if it gets too much, they can retreat through the portal
going through the nether, jumping around 30 blocks into a pool of water which they can lock down by covering it
going through a solid iron tunnel with two iron doors controlled from the inside
with a dispenser and a hole which they can get to from inside the iron safehouse they have there
with beds, weapons, equipment, and food enough to last for months IRL, and a solid bedrock outer layer

I'm now going to go and make the floor open into a huge cavern filled with ghasts

Corpse just got an idea for the speakers. Rather than having the switches out back have them wire up to the DJ booth properly so they have control from there.

Yeah the halloween party will be in the basement nightclub (will have access via the dance hall on the ground floor).

OK, so here's the plan.

I am the DJ for the giant Halloween Party, meaning I'll probably be running the dance floor. A few rules for the party:

1. Drugs are allowed. I'll be throwing coke and shrooms into the crowd, along with some laced Watermelon.

2. Jumping in one place isn't dancing. You need to crouch as well, and move around. I'll set up a sleeping station, in case the Moshing gets a bit out of hand.

3. Private chests available. I'll make a bunch of chests, and put them behind me, in the DJ booth. There is no way into the booth, besides the secret entrance. So all your stuff will be fine.

4. Skin Rules: You MUST find a skin appropriate for the party. Whether it be a rave costume or a halloween costume, I don't care. I will kick/kill you out. Now, most skins are fine, seeing as how a lot of people are already dressed up.

Skins that are not allowed:

Endermen Skins, Creeper Skins (We actually have a Creeper Problem, and I'll have a bow to deal with them. If you wear a Creeper Skin, I might shoot you.) and DJ skins.

5. Have fun! Whether you tour the manor, hang out with me in the Dance area, or just hang out in the bar, make sure you're having a good time.

I brought lapis, food and ink sacs. I might have some pumpkins laying around. How much iron do you need? I don't mind you keeping the rest of the stuff but I would need to be repaid for large amounts of iron.

Feel free to use my melon and/or sugar cane farms. They're about 8m down the mineshaft in my house.

I also have plenty of mushrooms (2nd chest from the top on right) - take as many as you want. Let me know beforehand if you want anything else.

I'm not sure how recent this is or if people knew already but Forbes temple of khorne has been griefed.




The temple is on the right from the sanc portal so I thought I would see if anything new has happened there since I last saw it (when I put in the piston door behind the gold throne), when I arrived the throne was open with that sign in the middle of the chest room and everything of value was gone.

The sign strikes me as similar to those that minetruck used to leave around the place so this may just be something he did but I thought I should report it anyway.

Good then, now onto the mystery of who tried to abduct my sanctuary house and left me about 32 stacks of feathers, which with the other stuff they had left there, I have accepted as a donation.

Left three signs on the back wall of the main room:
"AGENDA: BLOW STUFF UP
^ BE SNEAKY"

"FOLLOW PEOPLE
^ BE SNEAKY"

and

"DO NOT HARM
^ BE SNEAKY"

As well as entirely replacing my stair case with stone stairs, added new windows, rearranged my cacti trap, removed my mob grinder, removed the incinerator and added in an additional bed to the upstairs room.
It's bad enough sky city is directly over my house, rains mobs now...

I'm playing around on my own SMP server with enchanting and I can safely say it is amazing. Every enchantment has five levels that cost between 1 and 5 levels of exp but to get above 5 exp level costs you need to place bookcases near the enchanting table.

Sword enchantments are the most diverse.
There is a "bane" for each monster type that causes it to deal more damage to that type of mob, bane of arthropods deals more damage to spiders (a diamond sword with bane of arthropods V instagibs them). Sharpness increases raw damage. Fire aspect causes the target mob to set on fire. Knockback knocks the foe back with every hit, knockback V with max tier strength potion and a sprint hit basicly sends the mob blasting off again. Looting presumably increases the drops from a mob.

Axes, shovels and picks can all get efficiency which means it has a chance of breaking multiple blocks and mines faster.They also can all get silk touch (my level 46 enchantment managed a tier I silk touch effect so it is pretty rare) which means that all blocks mined are dropped as they were, coal blocks drop coal ore rather than coal/bookcases drop bookcase/smoothstone drops smoothstone etc.

Armour gains a "protection" enchantment that is pretty good, max tier is rare as my level 49 enchantment yielded diamond leggings of protection IV.

You can't enchant bows, shears, arrows, hoes or flint and steel's sadly.

Silk touch works wonders.

Smite damages undead apparently.

There is also an invisibility potion so an invisibility armour enchantment seems possible as armour currently only has protection.

Minetruck was definately responsible for messing about with your place, but there were others involved too (I think Shrike was playing along, something about ninjas). Chompy is the one running the sky city, I've already told him to move it. But I suppose you could just wait till the server reset.

Anyone got the answer to why items seem to just vanish/turn invisible unsuable sometimes when I try to use them? It's happened a couple times with my smoothstone, and once with my picks- I'll be using a stack, and suddenly that stack and all the similar items in my inventory vanish. They reappear when I open a chest, though.

Hello
I am EchoNation, Co-owner of the WarCraft 40k Minecraft server. On there I have built things from Strongholds and chapelbarracks from DoW I to Thunderhawks and Aquillas.
I have meant to come to this website to invite people to come on and build things, its not creative so you will have to ask either: EchoNation or DevilDogMaster if you want to join us in building.

I have been wanting to build a battle barge, and some titans, like greyhounds, warlord, or even an imperator. I also have a Warhammer 40k minecraft faction called the Devil Dog Chapter I am the first captain.

So if anyone wants to join and help build, I will be there. The IP is
eurovaprison.fragnet.net

-Some of my creations-
Stronghold:
http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/space-marine-stronghold/
Chapel barrack:
http://www.planetminecraft.com/project/space-marine-chapel-barrack/
Those are only 2, I haven't uploaded any others. But still, I invite you to join the server if you want to build any Warhammer 40k Structures, vehicles, or even statues.

http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/409398-%E2%99%A3-eurova-prison-%E2%99%A3-247-no-lag-back-online-18/

The link to "the official forum" does not work
http://minecraft.eurovanetworks.com/forum
and the sections of the forums that I did manage to get to were all in Russian.

There is no mention of the server being anything to do with 40k. The server seems to be some "Prison server". While there's nothing wrong with that (it does sound interesting), it's not 40k like you claim.

Finally, this page
http://mcserverstatus.com/action/viewserver/4057
says:
"Server spams their Ip adress at other servers to get attention."

Please feel free to refute these claims, but you'll have to provide some working links etc.

I guess I should probably log on to the server again and figure out what stuff I want to take with me when the world resets. Probably just my house.

Also, finished my nucleaer reactor chamber in IC2, now I need to power it up.

*sigh*
I didn't think that would come up.
Anyways. And why did you think I didn't post the thread on MC forums? Because I haven't made one for it.
Yes it used to be a prison server, but its not anymore, also the person who spammed the IP address, was, like everyone on a prison server, an immature 10 yearold who was, I don't know? A patriot for a server?
I had banned that person later after I heard about it...
It is a Warhammer 40k based PVP/Factions server. Not what it used to be.
Why did you not come to the server to check it out anyways?
Now if you try to search the server up. You won't find anything... If you do you will probably find my buildings on planetminecraft, or maybe you will find this post, and maybe now my server will get even worse reputation from more people who come too quick to judge...
So, I would like to be unbanned... Because I have done nothing wrong... And I still invite any of you to get on the server.

This is precisely why I was sceptical of your post and thought it looked like spam. Note that at no point did I make any direct criticism of your server, I simply pointed out what Google currently has to say about your server. If you want to fix that, get some more recent threads out there such as a new one on the Minecraft Forums explaining that your server has now changed. This will help others to find out the same.

EchoNation wrote:So, I would like to be unbanned... Because I have done nothing wrong... And I still invite any of you to get on the server.

I didn't ban your other account (I only have mod powers for the Dakka Minecraft server, not the forums), so I can't unban it. That's up to any forum mods who may be reading the thread.

Make it so everything is sign posted and has a fast connection, also, we need to make sure the rail is always faster than walking.

Perhaps the new generation of transport can be more rigidly formatted and build for ease of use?

Also with cooler platforms (like the ones for the manors downstairs platform).

This should be the new dreadrail.

Note: That was a joke.

Funily enough I worked on that concept; corners and resources were a problem so I stopped on it.

Took a lot less than in that video though, train was smaller and almost twice as fast. Actually had to slow it down while working on it in creative cause it would push me off of it.

The trick was making a clock constantly send out pulses then use a repeater at each point to have it flow properly.

Sadly moving blocks act as entities and so you fall through them

My plans for a treadmill can never be satisfied.

Kind of sort of, they seem to get pushed out from under you.

It's simple, you don't stand on the moving blocks. So if you were to make a cart like that it would be like the cars in the Flintstones. The issue being potential crushing. So the cart would then have to look like a Y, the issue then being the movement would distort the shape and push you out of the side anyway.

Really the only way I can see it working without a headache is as a 1x2 tunnel with an engine in it. As you can't be pushed out of the side it could likely reach incredible speeds. The only problem being having to compensate for lag as the blocks can move fast enough to pass through you. But by then it is less of a monorail/train and more like those booster/launcher things in Sonic...

Now I want to work on them more.

Edit: As a side note they make alright battering rams despite the cost compared to tnt/hitting stuff with tools or your hands. Sort of like how those rich guys get a catapult and fling cars around.
