Better light with Misa's 64x64 Realistic overhaul

I saw that texture pack earlier and contemplated on whether I wanted to use it or not. It really DOES look good! How's the stars, sun, and moon though? I'm curious.

Stars and clouds are unchanged. The sun looks awesome when its sunset/sunrise



I don't remember how the moon looks like. I haven't re-installed it in MC in a while due to:
1. lazyness
2. i hardly play at the moment
3. It's a peach to get HD and better light to work together

Aperture Science texture pack ftw :3.

Although I can't play anymore due to the free glitch not working anymore. Boo.

How much does it cost now?

Like...15 euros. Which is like 20 bucks.

Jumping where I left off in the other topic, but never got a reply; about what should one expect from their computer in order to run a server properly?

Nearly got my spawn castle done and am putting in the consideration of trying a server for a while. Also got that better light mod and am currently looking into MCEdit. Notch needs more stickies in his forums since I'm having a bit of trouble looking certain things up. I still need to find the mods you used in that last server to allow warping, changing spawn location, and disallowing construction in certain areas.

Oh, and if I do decide to make the server as I mentioned before, everyone is allowed one creative structure and the remainder would be survival. Looking at MCEdit, I could throw in a pre-created structure if you guys upload your maps, jump on the server, and tell me where to put it. I have the main exit of the spawn castle completed, but I also left a small open area underground to be used as a station for whenever people are ready to connect their homes.

Can't guarantee I'll get to this immediately, but getting the info on preparation never hurts.

It's hard to say, john. Notch isn't known for quality programming and it can randomly eat CPU like a mofo. Even a server intended for tf2 has had issues with this, along with other random errors.

I notice three mods which seem to yield good results: Hey0's, iConomy, and Towny. Hey0's does a lot of stuff. He has a Wiki that seems helpful. iConomy adds a currency system which is fun. It lets you sell and buy items through signs placed in game, among other things. Towny lets you start towns that limit who can build in them, etc.

I don't know much about setting any of these up - aside from Hey0, which is just a replacement for minecraft_server.jar. I spend most of my MC time on RP servers, and I see these plugins/mods a lot.

As for hardware requirements.... MC runs off of Java. Java burns memory like a peach. I haven't seen the memory usage of a server with 20 people online, but I am fairly certain it is less than the client. I think internet connection is more important than the machine's RAM because the server does not handle any images.

But I am not a computer expert, so don't quote me on this.

Edit:

I heard that each user online requires 300 kb of upload.

Can I get minecraft for free. I have been wanted to get the game for quit a awile

Nopeee you can't get it for free. Only a trial version is free you HAVE to buy it to get the real full version one. Better buy it now before it gets more expensive.!

Also, what are you guys currently building on Minecraft? I'm building a base that's in the air. There's no possible way to access it beside using a mod that has a portal to tele there. But if I block the teleporting entrance with a "block", and someone teles in, they get slowly damaged over time (similar to being burned in a lava, but not as bad).



Basically, it's supposed to look like a mechanical bird spaceship kinda thing whenever I'm done with it. Gonna use lava encased around glass as the eyes for the head, and I might use more Obsidian soon. Especially for the tail and head.

Not playing a lot lately tbh.

It's old but just felt like posting :]

Hmm...

I'm thinking of adding some mods in. What're you guys' suggestions? :3

I was trying to make a portal to the netherworld, I have been able to get 4 obsidian blocks to appear, not a single one gave me a block. I am now mad.
And I am also building my usual watchpost, since my old one got burned down to cinders.

You must mine Obsidian with a diamond pick. Nothing else. Break time with one is 15 seconds.

Thanks Hazzy.

Changing the subject a bit, Notch said that in the next update (next week) there will be painting and a water mob. What do you guys think about this?

This video sums up my hopes rather well.

I just found that the fish mob is there, it just doesn't have a design. If we think about it the water mob may dissapoint us and be a plain old fish.

But I hope for god that it's a whale.

Then if he swallows you up you can walk around inside it and mine out blubber
