It is probably people digging around. I had it in my first base. When the server got a bit more popular and more people came on, i found tonnes of tunnels crossing over mine and my obsidian farm being hammered.

That is why mine is well out the way now, so i hopefully won't have to worry about people digging underneath me.

I don't really feel like posting a tutorial, but that's all the files you need to get shaders working in 1.5.1

(Bump mapping not yet compatible on 1.5.1)

Also, someone really needs to trim those vines on the iron farms.

why does it look so good with you

EVERY shader ive tried looks incredibly bright and horrible.

I even tried this one, when i hold a diamond tool is basically just a white pick shape. its so so bright.

The brightness settings dont have any effect either.

If it werent for the few minor annoyances that spoil the whole thing id love these shaders

Need help. Accidentally royally f'd up Sagum's tower in survival. Happened just now 3:10pmish 4/25/2013

Can those blocks be reverted? You will see a large amount of blocks being blown up by TNT and one shot across a large area and puncture the tower sending water everywhere. Trying to fix but this thing is massive and I am sure I messed up intricate redstone placement. please help!

Sagum,. sorry man! Was trying to break up some more rock.

Based off what I read on other forums I would ask if you are using the newest drivers.

Also, there seems to be a chest/sign/frame transparency bug on my end with that shader pack.

1.5.1 is still a work in progress as well.

I remember having the exact issue you're describing on previous versions.

Louisifer to the rescue,. all is well.. thanks!

Didn't know tnt was useable in survival?

Completely Redesigned my base over the weekend. Removed the Tauroid i had in the center of my small fenced in area and created a sort of temple design. It is the new entrance to my base. removed the small house i had used previously for my entrance. I have also expanded the main areas of my base and moved my storage room from just 12 chests to 30 (all contained inside a Obsidian walled room. Lots and lots of changes this weekend.

Griefin rampant again. Some roads are messed up, (in front of my place) also someone stealing crops, cows, chickens. I am about to do what Little Neutrino is doing because it's getting annoying. If a mod can do me a favor, and check who is disturbing the block under the anti griefin sign I have in my yard. I would love to know who keeps pluckin those carrots;)

I think I know who's doing it - your new neighbour has a habit of breaking blocks to get into buildings. I told him to knock it off in-game, apparently that didn't help.

Will have a look when I get home later.

Suggestion: When you can, have an eye on new players you don't fully trust yet. If you catch any of them griefing, report them via PM to Laura, Timan or me. Or in-game if any of us happens to be on.

More radical suggestion: A complete map reset once 1.6 comes out. Yay/nay?

Once 1.6 is released i would be completely alright with a reset, it would help with finding new stuff, not to mention those of us who build close to the spawn before, do not have emeralds in our mines.

Does a complete reset mean we lose all our builds? IForgive my dumb question. If not, what is the downside?

Kyang! Long time man.

Yes, a complete reset means the server starts over from scratch.

A yay from me as long as we get (or build) a proper N/E/S/W spawn! The current one is terrible for directions and pretty small :p

We could either copy the creative spawn or have some of the most creative builders come up with a new one for a new map before it goes live.

    • OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT memory by Pradeep Viswanathan OpenAI is rolling out a major upgrade to ChatGPT's memory, making the system more capable, current, and scalable across long-term use. Memory allows ChatGPT to remember useful details about users, including their preferences, projects, and constraints. Instead of starting every conversation from scratch, ChatGPT can use this context to provide more relevant responses in future chats. OpenAI first launched saved memories in February 2024. That feature allowed users to explicitly ask ChatGPT to save information into its memory, such as travel plans or writing preferences. However, this system had limits because it depended heavily on users giving clear instructions to remember something. Additionally, saved memories could become stale over time. In April 2025, OpenAI expanded memory by allowing ChatGPT to reference past chat context outside the saved memories list. This was powered by a background process called “dreaming,” which automatically curates memories from chat history. This made ChatGPT better at learning from natural conversation without requiring users to manually save every detail. Today, OpenAI announced a more capable and compute-efficient memory architecture built on top of dreaming. This new system improves ChatGPT’s ability to carry forward useful context, follow user preferences, and remain accurate as time passes. According to OpenAI’s internal evaluations, the new system improves factual recall from 67.9% in 2025 to 82.8% in 2026. Preference adherence improves from 55.3% to 71.3%, while accuracy over time improves from 52.2% to 75.1%. The best part of this new system is a new memory summary page where users can review ChatGPT's memories. Users can even update details, correct information, or give instructions on what topics ChatGPT should bring up and when. This new, improved memory system is available to ChatGPT Plus and Pro users in the US starting today. It will roll out to more countries, as well as Free and Go users, in the coming weeks.
    • I work for a video production company in Australia. The camera operators shoot footage and then pass the SD card over to the editors. Much easier than handing over the entire camera. Plus, on a busy day you can hand off the SD card and then pop another in for the next shoot. Or, you might have used multiple SD cards because you need the extra space for a long shoot. I also use USB cables and wifi for transferring footage, but in many cases an SD card reader is the easiest method.
