What's the monthly? My shifting funds from GW back to TF collecting(mostly 3rd parties due to the new movie line) means I have a little more than I used to monthly.

Ace. I hadn't taken the plunge yet cause I thought it was a monthly fee. I'll see you guys in Dakka World in the beginning of July!

So I tried uninstalling both versions of Java (Apparently I'm recommended to use both 32 and 64 bit. Totally WTF, but whatever) and deleted my cookies. Everything is still blurry and minecraft still lags like a spanker.

It's okay, I fixed it just now. I wonder if the Java site has their downloads mislabeled... I'm running 64bit Windows 7 and IE9 64 bit, but Java wants me to run V6.0 in 32bit. So I tried that, and voila.

Makes no goddamn sense how, but it worked.

Finally able to play minecraft again on a semi-regular basis. I started a worl on the DAKKA seed yesterday and got ten iron ingots before my first night was over. I also hate how my render distance has to be Tiny to work and that F3 causes my entire screen to progressively go red, white and black. No different to my old computer though, I suppose. Ah well.

In the options menu, there are graphics settings. Try putting it on max fps, might give you the power to run it on short.

Ooh!

1.7 will also feature spikes (blocks that hurt you on contact) that can be moved with sticky pistons to make spikey pistons

All these new trap possibilities (trapdoors, spikey pistons, web) make me think that adventure mode will be a dungeon crawling inspired mode.

Once my friends actually play on the server, it might not be a joke anymore.

The old server is really weird. They installed a lot of mods and plug-ins and keep changing it every few days or so. The server here is just so much easier because it doesn't change a lot.

It's really a nice server. A good ambiance, a nice world, nice people to mine and build with, etc. Probably one of the nicest servers I've ever played on.

However, we've had some grievers (I honestly hope we're done with those idiots now), and sometimes, the server crashes, but apart from that, it's great.

heh, most of my friends just know that I'm on a server that they can't go on
a few of my friends know that it's on a warhammer forum, though.

Dakka is on my favourites and it has an icon taking up about a sixth of my startup screen on chrome, most people that use my computer see it

I'll be on later today, around 4 or 5 probably.

It probably will be, the server resets every 2 and a half hours IIRC anyway.

Nine hours to be exact. From about 20 minutes after I logged off last night. So obviously I'm not allowed to sleep or the server gets in a mood!

Infiltrating Broodlord






well i have given up trying to make new worlds with this current version of minecraft, the game locks my PC up and then eats my world. for some odd reason my old worlds stay.

so in my quest to build Troycraft i went back to my first original world where i have oodles of mined resources at my disposal and i picked a direction and walked. and boy did i walk. it took about 1800-2000 blocks before i found a nice frozen lake in a tundra biome that was large enough for my project.

i also found a nice cave that will be my source of lava and ore and sand/sandstone.

so i marked out my walls and put the first inner sandstone layer in as well as started on the first tower that goes at each corner.

my walls are 10 blocks high on top of the ice with the exposed parts of the wall being sandstone and the inner wall being cobblestone and obsidian.

i will have to post some pcitures when progress is further along.

i seem to have a problem growing trees, because where i am building is a frozen wasteland i needed to plant saplings nearby so i could make storage and tools. unfortunately of the 17 or so saplings i planted only 3 have grown into trees. i sort of randomly planted them on the dirt but it seems once grass grows on the block the tree will not grow. any suggestions?
