That's pretty awesome - I didn't realise there was quite that much of an ocean. We still need to find a stronghold, anyway! Apparently at the moment there are only three per map, all 640-1152 blocks from the initial spawn point, and 120 degrees from each other.

 

Also, me and martinist played a slightly laggy game of spleef, but I unfortunately didn't have quite enough snow to totally fix the arena. Hopefully Happenstance can sort it out, or else we'll need to find a snow biome...

Map zoom level is determined the moment you start the map, and that one seems pretty zoomed-in, makes the ocean look a lot bigger than normal.

 

I don't really have a place in N-E world, but next time I'm on I might go round in a boat and find clay in case anyone wants some brick structures.

Notch also noted that there will be at least two more major additions to the game, followed by a code freeze (restricted code changes) prior to the official launch of Minecraft in November. Very exciting changes - keep an eye out for updates right here!

Was just wandering around the server a bit and noticed a lot of trees still hanging in midair. As well as replanting thats been talked about, when you cut down trees can you make sure you get all the wood so the leaves can vanish as well.

 

Yeah that was annoying me too, I went and climbed up a lot of trees, chopped the rest down and planted more.

 

If you really cba to get all the wood, at least burn the rest down :p

 

 

I did try and get a lot of this sorted, but it seems people went and re-cut stuff down without sorting them/replacing them. :indeed:

People who've found Minecraft laggy since 1.8 came out, the Optifine mod has now been updated so you should try that. I just installed it and mines running a lot smoother now, been able to raise my distance level to short instead of tiny which is so much better.

I see! I'm excited to see how it plays on new beasty (new beasty being the name for my new pc.)

 

Wheee.

 

Oh just rub it in! :p

 

I do keep trying to get a new PC but im weak when it comes to saving my money. I know as well that there are too many good games coming out over the next few months so it'll still be a while before I can afford the new PC.

 

Bow down to your Minecraft master! :p

Looking at the final specs you posted in that thread, it should run perfectly on that build provided you have the 64-bit JRE installed.

 

But you won't notice any difference really unless you put on a nice 128 or 256 texture pack, then it looks nice :)

 

Hell yes I'll be putting on shiny texture packs. I'm not paying 700quid not too! :bouncy:

 

We should all make those Happenstance, it'd be fun and it seems a server tradition.
