    Ditto, I was playing it occasionally until Black Ops and GT5 came out... now GT5 rules all.

    Minecraft is still totally awesome! They added some cool shit in a Halloween update, and the game will continue to grow and expand so it's not a bad investment.

    Online is either a total mess or really cool depending on which server you wind up in, it would actually be cool to have a BFC server running at a static IP so we can work on something in there, or compete to create a big castle or something...

    Go to the minecraft website, there's a bit of information there on it. I downloaded the server software for it but never tried to get it going. You could take a crack at it and let us know if you have success.

    Also try going here, it's the Minecraft Wiki... tons of info there, I'm sure you might find some info on servers there too.

    some crap


    my 3 story house. Two working showers, fire place, the wall is 15 blocks out in all directions from the house (not counting from the overhangs) on the outside of the wall there is two spaces then a ditch thats atleast 2 spaces deep (at the deepest its 10+) so if any badguys come wandering near my house they're stuck in there. Then main entrance is 3 concrete blocks thick all around to stop any of those exploding bad guys. i also have to logs on fire at the entrance.

    the house is based off of this
    http://house-blueprints.net/blueprint_31457.htm

    and its to scale. (1 foot = 1 block) I added a second part of the 2nd floor and the whole 3rd floor.

    I still have to furnish the 3rd floor, make the protecting wall completely concrete, and start on the underground passages that start underneath the inside stairs.








    the 3rd floor needs windows too and i also have to create a lava trap in the ditch to automatically kill any enemies. A lot of buckets of water and lava ill need.

    i haven't been playing too much lately since gt5 came out but i just picked this back up last few days. I know theres a lot cooler buildings out there but considering the state of mind im in whenever i work on this, its impressive.

    Anyone know how to make a video from minecraft?

    Looking forward to the beta (hopefully will be released on the 20th).

    And I'm a huge fan of the music, doesn't always play, but when it does it kind of adds to the lonely vibe, being the only living human, yet you are just mining and building.

    yea I kind of look forward to night to have other creatures to actually interact with.

    Makes me think that being stranded somewhere alone wouldnt be SO bad.

    you arent really fighting each other or anything so you cant really take sides. Theres a few different types of multiplayers but yes you can see and interact with other people.

    Some modes is like regular single player where you mine and build regularly monsters come out at night. but if im not mistaken theres a glitch where the enemies dont really hurt you so most servers are like that but they're using cheats and hacks where they get regenerating diamond tools, unlimited blocks etc etc. or a mod power or something. i have no clue what im talking about really.

    Download FRAPS and you can use it to record video... that's your best bet.

    At first I didn't think it was all that special, but you keep watching and there are some cool parts... I like when he goes diving into the caves.

    this is my automated station - you stand on a pad and the car comes - if you miss the car is loops round back into its bay - and reactivates the light letting you know the car is ready again. The flashing light at the back is to let you know the perpetual motion machine is working because it flashes on when the booster car is in its bay and off when its doing a fake round.

    I'm very curious to see what the beta does (should be released Monday). I am excited for it!

    And by the way, you can change the difficulty to Peaceful, which means there are no "bad guys" and you regenerate health very quickly. I didn't know that until a friend told me. Can make the game easier if you are just trying to build something cool.

    This site has been very helpful for me. Go to crafting to see what you can make/what you need to make it.
