By all means. Everyone is.

Yay, I'll try building when I get on during the weekend. Would you mind if the fort was big? (and if I explore a bit to find a good place to build?)

Sure, just don't go too far. We should be able to realistically make a road to it. Make it as big as you want.

Ok. I won't make it too far away. I have a design for castle I'd like to build.
(I'll be careful not to make your save too big)

Mmk.
I really need to update this map, but I've been working more on my "Valley of the Kings" map, and a little bit on my "Mole" map. The Mole one is nuclear winter, meaning I have to live entirely underground, and Valley of the Kings is an experiment with limited map size, where I genned a world where I spawned in the middle of a natural pit, walled off a few entrances, and forbid myself to pass those walls.
Mole is a pretty small map centered around a few trees, with a little hollowed area with some chests and furnaces, a small entrance to some caves, and a drift mine.
VotK, on the other hand, his a stone house built halfway up one of the cliffs, and a set of walkways going through the surrounding cliffs and bridging between them, meaning I can access my house easily from anywhere in the valley. it also has a naturally formed humongous cave formation thingy on one side, just past a shallow, pleasant lake. on the whole, it's a neat map.

Cool. Wait, if you update the map, will all progress I make on it be undone? Then why don't you not build in single player and just build in SMP so you don't have to update the map with a map from single player and undo the castle that I might have started. Just wondering if that might work... (oh and ONE more day until I can be back home and play minecraft SMP again... )

What? No, SMP is an earlier version of the map that is static. It doesn't update, not from my SSP anyway.
I'm a big fan of experimental gameplay styles (Mole, VotK). Any new ideas?

How about desert? Get an editing program and replace all leaves with air, all grass with sand, all red flowers with air and all yellow flowers with cactii. Oh and also give each new person 3 seeds when they start.

Seeds are useless without dirt.
Saplings are useless without dirt.
With no trees, you can't do anything.
EDIT: Nevermind. You only replaced the grass. Thus, there is dirt.

Post by Qwerty on Nov 1, 2010 5:27:59 GMT
I would need saplings, too.
|
|
|
Post by ~Memzak~ on Nov 1, 2010 10:57:02 GMT
Giving one sapling at the start should be included too I guess.
So, desert stage anyone?

Maybe later, too busy testing my hell world. Heck, I haven't even updated this map.

Post by ~Memzak~ on Nov 1, 2010 14:59:42 GMT
Yep, Hell world is addicting.
Did you know that once a zombie pig gets into a minecart (which they like doing alot) they can't get out?
I got 5 pigs in minecarts and attacked one with a bow. I killed them off with no scratches. Ghasts on the other hand are much harder to kill.

Post by Qwerty on Nov 2, 2010 13:56:21 GMT
Now get a ghast in a minecart. Hee...
One challenging thing to do is beat a Ghast using nothing but a fishing pole. It's possible, trust me.
|

Post by ~Memzak~ on Nov 2, 2010 14:05:32 GMT
I do trust and believe you for I have tried.
I've managed to get it caught on the pole about 4 times before it got out of my range. It flies to fast. (not to mention the fireballs of death)
What you have to do is get it to back into a corner/cave where it can't fly off and dodge the fireballs as you hook it many many many times. MUCH easier said than done.

Post by Qwerty on Nov 2, 2010 20:04:03 GMT
Here's something harder: Beat one with your bare hands. Really. Just deflect the fireballs.
|
|

Post by ~Memzak~ on Nov 3, 2010 9:11:39 GMT
Impossible. Without hacking it is impossible. There is no way. They move to fast, they fly, they have very high health and they shoot exploding fireballs!
|
|
|
Post by Qwerty on Nov 3, 2010 13:37:09 GMT
No, it's not impossible. I've done it myself, without hacking. Their fireballs are their downfall.
|
|
|
Post by ~Memzak~ on Nov 4, 2010 4:59:28 GMT
Wait, they can be hit by their own fireballs?
I never knew that... XD That would have saved me a lot of time... :s

Server back up, on a fresh map, and you can summon a demon from the server's version of micro-Hell to do work for you in return for sacrifices. Oh, and a new mod or two.
I'll update the map here soon. I hope.

Post by ~Memzak~ on Nov 4, 2010 13:26:32 GMT
Ooohoo! Demon? Mods? Which ones?!
I can't wait for the weekend. I'm going to explore and try and find a good place to build first. Once done I'll then collect a ton of resources and build a small castle.
I don't want to build the real deal castle design because if I did it would take me months (if I only play on weekends) and would be too big. Much to big.

The "Demon" is me wearing a demon skin. I'm in a "Hell on Earth" place I made, sitting on a golden throne surrounded by fire. You can reach me via personal teleporter using books, and summon me with that, and I have magic and stuff I can use to help build stuff. It's sort of a replacement for the store I had in the other map.

Post by ~Memzak~ on Nov 5, 2010 15:49:14 GMT
I played it. It LAAAAAAGS!
Oh and this is SO not an obvious trap. I'm going to try and make a small house by the snow fields. I'm not going to go all out. I'm just maybe going to make a small house. Nothing fantastic, just a house.

The lag was a temporary deal. Something's up with my Linux box, has been all day. I'm working on it now.
Did you fall for the subtle trap?
|
|
|
Post by ~Memzak~ on Nov 6, 2010 8:33:01 GMT
Ok, because lag puts me off an SMP server VERY quickly.
Oh and I didn't fall for it. Although I did steal a torch from it as I needed a torch. XD

Post by Qwerty on Nov 6, 2010 22:23:44 GMT
Apparently SOMEONE tripped it, and you were the only one around...
Anyway, I have it back up and less laggy, but with some connection issues for some reason.

I'm still working on getting there.

Post by ~Memzak~ on Nov 9, 2010 8:22:20 GMT
I'll try playing again this weekend, lets hope it's a bit less laggy. Does the hell world and nether portals work properly?
|
|
|
Post by Qwerty on Nov 9, 2010 14:40:38 GMT
Nope, not in any SMP server.
|
|
|
Post by ~Memzak~ on Nov 9, 2010 17:02:01 GMT
I thought not. Haven't they made a mod to make it work yet? Anyways...
Who do you think activated your trap?
