  • Damn you guys, you just had to go and keep on posting about this! I gave in and got it, still not sure exactly why. Guess it feels like i'm missing out on all the new creations.

    Awesome.

    After a lovely sunny hike across the hills me and Sparkly found sugar cane, so book cases and cake are go.

    Mod, I rode your track both ways and it was 637ish, so you're nearly there.

    Just thought I'd drop in before I pass out this evening. Good to see you gents.
     Wandered off from the B&B planted and some more sugar cane as I passed, died a few times as it was night when I spawned and then came across a zombie spawner. Bonanza!! Am building a tower of monolithic proportions above it in preparation for some exp grinding. Booya! Will sell tickets to the show if the adventure update actually drops. Heheh

    It's like crack I tells thee...

    I'll jump on project railway now my abode is just about finished. Iron is closer to the surface isn't it? I fancy more exploration/spelunking. I need to make a map first though.
  • Ok, twice now this fucker has crashed when I've acessed the inventory screen
  • ...and again on the crafting screen. This is bullshit

    I've never fully understood Nether portals, but I made one in my palace's secret lair and when I exited the Nether I ended up coming out of the Bear Lodge portal!!
  • That place looks impressive. I'm living in a cave that has a conservatory. It looks gash.

    How might one visit badger world?

    Dig, dig, dig. Build, build, build. Don't get attached to anything you own. You'll be fine.

    You haven't been fully inducted into Minecraft until you spend half an hour repairing somebody's house you detonated a creeper near.

    Spent most of today building an underwater house, time really does fly when you're playing, managed to stop restarting all the time thanks to seed 1987.
    I now have a pet which I've accidently thrashed a few times but he doesn't seem to mind.

    Some daylight shots for a change. Frantic working on his palace, notice the water feature. Posh git.

    The front of the palace, with N0Face's house/burger bar in the background.
  • I was going for more blacksmith/forge than fast food outlet.

    I enjoyed playing tonight, I managed to build something so feel quite satisfied.
  • How do you build all of this cool stuff? I'm spending most of my time evading monsters. And why do zombies keep appearing in my house at night when I try and sleep?

    Is your house well lit?  If not, they'll spawn in any shadow, so make sure you don't have a dark closet in there or something.  If it's nice and bright, make sure you have an "air gap" of one cube between your bed and every exterior wall, as there was a bug.

    Mod, this iron is burning a hole in my pixelated pocket...

    Got quite a lot done last night, the sand palace will hopefully be completed tonight after I go set up a sand collection facility somewhere far away. 

    Anyone fancy exploring the abyss that I uncovered?
  • Cheeky request, i'm home today... any chance of leaving your xbox on?

    It seemed to be well built. It had a roof and everything! It wasn't very big, just enough for a bed and a crafting table. and I had a couple of torches inside and also on the outside walls so I could see it from a distance if it got suddenly dark. I also enclosed the whole thing with a fence (no gaps) and the fekkers still got in. 

    I seem to have rectified things by building it from stone, but I can't imagine how you guys can build stuff like the images above while still fending off creatures. I might knock the difficulty back to 'peaceful' and use one of these seed codes. Any suggestions?

    I would, but I'm at work.

    @voodoo

    Just build the perimeter first, then nowt can get in or spawn if it's well lit. Put loads of torches outside so nothing spawns close. You get used to it.

    I've built my latest creation completely ignoring this, and have had 2 serious creeper incidents. It's all part of the fun.

    Was tootling around exploring my own little world and after finding some interesting looking landmasses I was accosted by a gang of skeletons and zombies. 

    Tried getting back but it took too long so that's the end of that diamond sword. Piss it. Now have to go deep down to the depths again to go find me some more sparkly gems. On the plus side the kids extension is now looking much better.

  • @heavy Voodoo, Also just sleep or mine when it's dark until you've got a big enough area walled in and lit. If you build a perimeter wall 4 high with an overhanging block on the outside and torches on top it'll stop all the monsters getting in then just make sure everything is lit on the inside and you should be good. Part of the reason big things are getting built on Frantics server is that loads of people are chipping in.


  • For those wondering what minecraft is about I always liked this trailer.
