I have that issue.

My old email failed a while ago. My account is so old it's not covered under mpjang payment systems.

Its like a 4-5 year old account.
I still can log in old way though.

Gamw etx. I cannot change my skin or such.

@sirlynchmob you have a very scary point there - if it spawns then it could really ruin your nether lair. Well, Ulmanian mercenaries are always up for hire if you need them.....

@djones520 how long is it since you last logged in? Have you tried resetting your password?

I haven't played on the PC in a while, but I did log in a year ago to download the game to my kids computer. The account is only a few years old, I opened it in 2014. I did reset my password earlier, and it accepted the reset, but still refuses to let me log in.

I'm waiting to hear word back from Mojang.

Right, best thing to do is to wait for Mojang to respond then.

Yo, for people with old accounts- they did a Migration thing- if you're on Minecraft.net, there should be an option to Migrate your Mojang account (or whatever). It was a thing where they moved stuff about, merged the forums and stuff. You should still be able to access the game.

But yeah, if you can't find a Migrate Account option, go ahead and contact tech support. You definitely won't have to buy the game again.

Huh... I was able to log into Minecraft.net. I've been trying to get into Mojang the whole time. Thanks!

And of course now the email with the verification code won't arrive in my inbox...

Give it up to a day. Sometimes emails are quick, sometimes they're slow.

Pleasepleaseplease can we install a mod that reduces the fething creeper spawns to something sane? And maybe replaces some of them with zombie villagers too?
Its a bloody nightmare, all I want is to get some bloody villagers into my town but the plains and clearings near me are infested with green isis rejects and every fething night is spent advancing at a crawl whilst trying to pick the green gakkers off with my bow and arrow. Eventually when I reach zombies theres never a villager or if there is by the time I have got him and am luring him back the sun is starting to rise and it cripples your morale to spend all that time and take all those hits only for the villager zombie to burn up yards from the conversion box. Not to mention having to kill alll the creepers on the way back so they dont blow him up as well.

So far I have managed to retrieve and convert 1 villager and that turned out to be a Fool class anyway.
Its not funny, please can we do something?

That mod is already in the game, it's called torches & 1/2 slabs

The server is on normal as well, you're lucky I got outvoted when I suggested raising it to hard

Where do you need the villagers? the wife and I are quite good at catching them, converting them and delivering them if you'd like some help.

Just at my base in Ulm, I'm walling the citadel in and fortifying it. Theres two main bits so far, Old Town (the bit with all the glaze) and Low Town (still being built, its on the opposite side of the keep) that both/will both need populating. Of course low ton really needs to finish being built first.

Yeah, I am - hardmode creepers would have levelled Ulm within a single night!

Torches and half slabs also stop zombies from spawning sadly.

If you stop by at night make sure to check out the 'Hot Zones' in Ulm, places so radioactive that they glow at night as though it where day.

well you don't light up everywhere, you want to slow down the spawns to make them more manageable.

why not just run a track to the trading hall and ship them back to your place?

Get yerself a tunnel. Or create a temporary railway- use a furnace cart so you don't need to mess with powered rails. Lure a zomble villager to the cart, snag him, send him home.

or litter the place with boats, those work as great as mob snares.

After experiments with the fool it might be better to complete the wall and take a few other measures first.

If my laptop behaves one night, do you want me to lend a hand in adding to thr fortifications.

I mean. My home is somewhat mob proof lol.

An old server had one design. The wall of nope. It's a 3-4 deep pirlt, 5 blocks wide. Filled with cacti, flaming netherwrack, sometimes even lava blocks between cacti.

Nothing short of a wither. Ender dragon or ender man can cross it alive.

Could also lay soul sand at one of the more vulnerable flanks to slow down attackers and make vulnerable to archery battlements. Add some jutting mini towers every so often and they can sweep the wall below the next tower and any enemy who makes it the face of the wall.

Add a ha ha wall abit further our to prevent enemies being able to reach base of wall. It's one sides slope, then goes to a flat up wall.

Flat ground then looks flat but is walled and moated.

The inner villager zone garrisoned with golums and maybe snow golums turrets to force mobs away from sections where you need space.

Jhe.... ROGAL... 90...DORN.... Cough....

Yeah, haven't gotten any emails from Mojang or Minecraft.net. Haven't responded to my inquiries about being unable to log in, or haven't gotten any of the verification code emails I've requested.

This sucks.

Checked your spam folders?

Oh master of ordience. I found a bad jump horse that make a good nether taxi. Reckeon we not be pushing it to make small stable neat the Nether hub for easy travel between far off spots?

Thats a great idea jhe!

There's alot of slower, low jump horses.

They bad for surface but good fir saving hunger on nether highway.

If there is a spawn two and it is some 12.5k in nether travel. Well we have a easy way to do it

What do you guys think of the new data packs?




Of course it's all up to Dark if anything is added.

Finally managed to link up a Woodland Mansion through the nether and it still takes about 30 minutes to run to it. Anyway, someone want to help clear it out? I mainly want to slay the mobs in it for the achievement's sake and get one of those dolls.

You mean command block modifications? Il have to check cod when less on a smart phone.

Yeah. I'm pretty sure Dark is committed to Vanilla.

The most we might get is a command block TP is spawn 2 hoes ahead and there's about a million blocks apart.

It's not command blocks, it's extra recipes that can be made by the players and added to a data pack. Did anyone watch the video?

I hadn't watched the video but the title and thumbnail explained it. But what could we use it for? The only things I'd want are mob heads and diamond horse armor but they aren't really necessary.

What did you have in mind?

The new pack is really looking sweet and I love the new functionality, making our own achievements & recipes is awesome.

It would be nice to have a recipe for elytras, even something like a nether star, 2 ghast tears and 2 leathers. They're just to much fun to not make them easier to get.

a new recipe for armor stands with arms would be nice. or ideally a gui for players to pose them.

Then for the sake of the planet, one to change gravel into sand 5 gravel, 4 flint, x pattern, gets you a stack of sand Let's end the decimation of deserts.

Deserts... You mean those places you strip back to thre stone layers for sandstone and sand

Oh. Well that would be intresting but it's deciding the balence.
Maybe make it fairly expensive so exploration is still viable and worthwhile.

We could generate a bit of income here - build a stables at the spawn hub and several more along the way at important stop-off points and then charge people for renting a Nether horse. We look after the saddles and possibly armour of course.

I really want to see this added.
Chain Armour is really cool and its a bummer that you cannot make it, and bottles of enchanting cost too much at the moment. More importantly items like Elytra are all but impossible to come by, especially as the End has been explored so vastly. Mob heads are almost impossible to acquire as they require a Charged Creeper and I am having a hard enough time finding a Skeleton Trap Horse, let alone getting a creeper to be struck by lightning without it going boom on me. Saddles and horse armour could also be craftable.
I, for one, would support this.

True. We can breed up some nether horses. Save you running, rent one for a small fee.
Not too much work. Not need to be fastest, or best jump. Any horse outpaces sprint speed long distances.
Gold farm plus horse spawning. There must be 20+ horses out there. And it's a biome they spawn on.

Saddles. Easy fishing.

Armour is not needed if your only riding down the Nether highways. There mostly slabbed. A horse would save you alot of hunger though

You can get chain mail from the armorsmiths, emeralds are really easy to come by and basically makes the chain mail free

why would you want bottles of xp? there's a plethora of xp farms on the server. but you can get them down to 3 emeralds a bottle if you really want them.

the mob heads are a royal pain, I spent a month getting mine and I don't think there's enough diamonds on the server to get me to fire up the farm again and try to get more.

Even with the servers pretty insane spawn rate? Though getting lightning to strike is.. Difficult to say the least.

Mobs spawn at a good pace on Dakka. Squid are like by the dozen!
