I wonder what the texture packs can do with armor dyes tbh.
I'm looking forward to it.

Finding diamond isn't that hard if you just create a pinwheel mine whose floor is at Y=10 or so, or other form of organized mine.

Where B = any form of rock or ore, E = empty space, C = center of the mine, where you have a 2x2 spiral staircase leading up to the next level. This design allows almost every block at the level to be revealed, is easy to navigate, and etc. It can continue on ad infinitum if you want, although I usually stop at fourty to fifty blocks out from the center.

I know the best way to find diamonds
1: Find all four corners of a chunk
2: Dig out the top layer of the chunk
3: Dig out all the chunk
Easy as pie....but I am not going to do it.
No, that's pretty much the worst. Mel's got a good system, and if you just make tons of corridors criss-crossing each other with a space of 2 blocks inbetween them, you've got a good chance.

My system almost minimizes how much you need to dig in each layer to reveal every single block ,AND it has a central area for storage and crafting areas. The center can always be expanded upon to make more room for storage as you run out of chest space.
There wa a system that actually minimized it completely, but it was a bit annoying to make, I prefer mine. My pinwheel design is meant for mining at Y=10 to Y=20 or so, above the level where the most magma spawns, but still within the level where diamond and etc spawns, allowing one to maximize gain while minimizing hassle, due to how easy the design is to replicate.

I'll make a bet, £1000 will be yours if you make her explain.
Of course, since you won't be alive by the time she's finished with you, it's a safe bet to make.
Mandorallen turned back toward the insolently sneering baron. 'My Lord,' The great knight said distantly, 'I find thy face apelike and thy form misshapen. Thy beard, moreover, is an offence against decency, resembling more closely the scabrous fur which doth decorate the hinder portion of a mongrel dog than a proper adornment for a human face. Is it possibly that thy mother, seized by some wild lechery, did dally at some time past with a randy goat?' - Mimbrate Knight Protector Mandorallen.
