Has anyone else tried Tale Of Kingdoms? So far it's made my list of favorite mods, really looking forward to the second half of it slated for early November...

I'll say this much: Pistons have officially pissed me off... They seem to be completely unreliable in their switching patterns. When they should work, they don't work. Some stay switched off... Arggh.

I'm trying to make a column of pistons that jut out for a scrolling screen, and for some reason no pattern works.

That's my vent for the night. Off to bed.

oh yeah, so just so no one asks me "How was minecon", I could only get one other person to say that they would go, and couldn't find anyone willing to drive the eight hours, so I'm not going.

I used to be quite addicted to Minecraft, but then I stopped playing it for a very long time, because I wanted Notch to add a whole new bunch of crap to the game so it would be fresh for me the next time I played it. I figured since version 1.0 or whatever was just released, now would be as good a time as any.

Wow. The game is in it's slowest running and most crash-prone state that it's ever been in for as long as I've been playing it. It feels more like a Beta now that it's been released than it did when it actually was in Beta. I don't know if it's just my computer or what, but even after reinstalling it several times it still slows down and crashes an absurd amount. Which is a shame, because gameplay-wise and feature-wise it's at it's best. If it worked, it would be the best version of Minecraft yet.

So I'm going to wait a while still and let Mojang iron out the performance issues before I go back to playing it regularly.

All right you primitive screwheads, listen up...

Yep, those weird framerate drops even on a decent machine are a very annoying bug within the game.

Ok, I officially hate Notch now.

He's getting angry at the Yogscast for "dropping a f-bomb on kids at the minecon event"

This is just stupid on his part because every normal person would have foreseen that obviously adults swear, and how can you expect to there not to be any swearing at a event like this with thousands of people on the event. This is just plain stupid imo.

Read more about it on his twitter account, or watch the yogscast "Shadow of Israphel outtakes" video because 87% of the comments there are about that.

Personally, I'm still playing with 1.7.3 Technic Pack ... until this thing is updated to work with 1.0, I don't think i'll be moving.

I simply cannot function in minecraft anymore without my mothership D:

I think there is more to the story than just the swearing from their panel.
You'll just have to wait for the Yogscast to put their official word on the matter up later today.
I'm not really sure what went down, but from the looks of their recent video, their supporting team looked a little grumpy, the guy on the end of the desk hardly cracked a smile.

It could be just a misunderstanding or it wasn't actually Simon/Lewis/Hannah who were to blame.

I assume he is referring to the Zeppelin he made with the Zeppelin mod included in the Technic pack.

Yes. I made a mothership using the zeppelin mod.. carefully crafted to avoid bugs between it and IC, BC, EE. I have my entire factory crammed into this mothership. If I spot a good oil reserve, I can park the mothership overhead, pump it all into my onboard oil tanks, take it with me for fuel on the go or take it all back to my base. If I happen to get a good reading on the OV scanner while I'm out and about, the ship is also equipped for impromptu mining. The miner is also set up with EE's alchemy chest for easy compression of resources into those oh so lovely diamonds. And what better way to spend time on a mining expedition than to lounge in the garden area, or take a skiff from the landing bay down to the local village, maybe scout out new summer home locations?

Yeah.... can't live without it now, I've gone and spoiled myself.


Until I found this pack, I thought creepers were the worst that a foe could get.... until I had to rebuild my house 5 times due to cave ogres deciding to let themselves into my house through the back wall.

No idea unfortunately, as I wasn't the one who removed it.
Was it an image with a size larger than 600x120?

Is there a mod that loads your own music and plays a different song in every world? I don't mean for single player, I want to have it on my server so everyone can hear the music.

@TheComet: If you have bukkit then yes, It's a spout plugin called Rhyve music, though I think it's inactive. There might be other plugins which have taken over though. Look into spout and be amazed

@ Isocadia - Thanks! I'll look into it once I finally update my server.

@ Dark Frager - The 1.0.0 update threw my entire schedule off track and I just haven't had enough time to update the server and all of the mods... But no, it has not stopped Hopefully I'll be able to update it some time this week (holidays).

Ok, I have a question about a batch file:

I'm running a server which is restarting every 2 hours. Simply using this code:



What I now want to do is that when the server stops, before going back to start I want it to wait for 10 seconds and if the user presses the y button during those 10 seconds, I don't want to program to go back to start but I want the program to exit. Is there a function which captures user input? I could also work with any key, as long as it's possible to escape the loop.

wouldn't it be simpler just to use wait and then cntl-z if you want to break out of the script during this time? You could even make it say "press cntl-z to quit"

Oh wait, this is on windows...

CHOICE is the command you're looking for.

But how do I make it continue if after 10 seconds nothing is pressed? I mean, in C++ it would be a simple if timer<10s&&choice=Y then stop, else restart. But I do not know how to set up a timer or something like that in batch format. Is this even possible ( cause it basicly requires a while loop )?

The reason I want it to self restart is that most of the time, I'm not there during restarts. So I want the server to simply stop, wait 10 seconds than restart. But if I'm there and want to stop the server, during those 10 seconds should I press any key or enter some kind of command, I want the batch file, instead of going back to the server, to go to the exit function.

read the link. It's got a timeout option which will pick any option you want. You can make it pick the "run server" option.

Well, if I use this:



The server start fine, but when I stop it, I get:



But it's the exact code from that website, exept all the choices replaced with YN

Edit: Alright, kinda got it working. Small problem, it always picks the first errorlevel, no matter what input you give.

So this:



Will always make the server exit, and this:



Will always make the server restart. Is there a way to seperate the two things?

From what I understand is that if the errorlevel is 2, it also is one. So I think this should be fixable by instead of directly using goto, first change a variable and after the choice checking the value of that variable, right?

Edit2: Got it working. Simple if 1 if not 2 and if 2 if not 1 then etc. It's working now

anyone know how to convert an .exe file to something that will work on a mac what I am trying to do is convert the exe file in the attached file. what the file does is you drag the mods you want to install into it and it installs them into minecraft.
