With options for turnoffs at any place they pass- you're encouraged to donate some rails if you're going to be on the route, but it's not completely necessary.
Also, I have ideas for fancier looking station areas, and various other things.
The purpose of the rail line is going to be large-scale mass transport; either letting multiple people ride at once, or allowing for the transportation of hundreds of stacks of materials at once.

The reason you can't get them in creative mode being there are a few million combinations you can make.
The fix being keeping stacks of whatever goes into a creative dispensor as infinite, which is my main issue.
It's absolutely stupid to expect every single possible combination to be available in the menu; it's far from stupid to keep them infinite in dispensors.
Guess which one I'm more likely to be wanting.

As some of the better fireworks require silly ingredients like diamonds, glowstone, blast charges and gold nuggets (as well as copious amounts of gun powder), I'll happilly MCEdit in some dispensers full of pre-made firework stars. As you can't un-craft them back into diamonds and all they do is go poof, I have no qualms about providing copious amounts of them. I've already made a fair amount as I was stuck on a long boring train journey earlier.
So don't waste any of your own diamonds, nuggets, blast charges etc.
i would like to know where and when, so I can cobble together enough functionality to view the display...
Experience is something you get just after you need it The Narkos Dynasty - 15k Iron Hands - 12k The Shadewatch - 3k Cadmus Outriders - 4k Alpha Legion Raiders - 3k
Check when I joined the server, I started building it that night...
If you mean the garden bit at the top I'd say a week or three on and off though. I don't start with much of a plan on what to build, so all the bits tend to just form into something. (I still have my original dirt hut in the basement btw).
Of course just bunking little bits on all the time does lead to me having a load of unifinished bits... I.e. I'm working on my garden whilst I still have to finish the wall around my home, or that little fortress thingy. =P
*And oh, if it came accross that I was chucking you out last night I uh... Well I didn't want you to die in my door. ...People tend to do that every now and then (even after I removed the arrow dispensors).

Just putting this out there, I'm not sure what the standard protocol is.
I'm decently far way from spawn, and I'm looking for an enchanting table set up in my "home".
I can create the book, but I'm still short the diamonds and the obsidian (or at least the means to mine obsidian, cause I do know how to make it)
If someone has a project going on that requires cobblestone, would you be willing/interested in my time and cobblestone for your 3 diamonds and 4 obsidian? if you'd be willing to trade those items, I'm more than willing to give up stacks of cobble.
Let me know

Also I've had Minecraft since summer of 2011, I just couldn't play it from fall of 2011 until Christmas Eve when I got a computer that could handle it (If that make's you cry, I understand, my netbook wasn't good for such things).

How much do you want? I've got 18 full stacks, and can easily mine more, until I hit some creepy cave or something lol

In another note, I found a deep cave in my mining adventures Explored it already, nothing of note but a zombie. Everything has been "cleared out" and it's time to start mining
Automatically Appended Next Post: So I ended up finding this HUGE cavern... like... I've wasted a stack of torches illuminating this place... I've found lapis, gold, diamond, red stone... all the cobble one could want... and then minecraft froze on me

...I died yesterday with almost a stack of diamonds and full diamond armour plus sword, all enchanted. (I'd been through two large carvern systems at least)
Its annoying that I fell in lava, swam about for a good while, and couldn't jump outsomehow. =/

Just go to Abso's Citadel for more. (and don't place them next to your food when exploring. I kept flinging myself about accidently that way and almost killing myself)=P
To get there go to the spawn portal nether side, face away from the chests, walk forward from there till you hit a wall with rails then turn right and follow the rails into the next room. Once in Abso's place head into the main room upstairs and there's a set of stairs heading down at its other end past the piano. Down there you'll see an End Portal and once in the end go behind the house and take the rails to the Enderman Grinder.
So, my further adventures in Minecraft LPing. I've gotten Audacity and MSExpression Encoder4, and I'm now attempting to use them to combine the audio and video (.wav and .avi I think) files that Minevideo records, in order to get a single file I can upload to YouTube. However, I may be able to simply add the audio in YouTube's built-in system. I'd prefer the single video format, however.
Anyone have any tips on this?

I use VirtualDub for video editing, resizing, cropping, frame rates etc. You can also find compression software to go with whatever. If I remember right there is no need to have video above 30FPS for Youtube.

I managed to get my hands on a copy of Windows Movie Maker, so I can now combine the audio and video- and in High Definition, too. All I need to work on now is framerate tweaks and figuring out how to clean up my voice using Audacity.
