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.

      If you actually used it instead of responding like a petulant child you might be surprised. I switched from Google some time ago and have been very satisfied.
    • [NEWS] Over 105000 games are available to play on Linux.

      I am one of the first people to use the DXVK technology. In the channel below you can see some videos that I have made using this technology, including Assassin's Creed Odyssey. https://www.youtube.com/@nahum7995/videos Assassin's Creed Odyssey experienced several bugs and technical issues during its first months after release. It launched with its own fair share of funny but frustrating glitches. I ran it on DXVK 9 days after its release and I played it for many hours but didn't see a single significant bug on Linux. Assassin's Creed Odyssey is widely celebrated for pushing the franchise in bold new directions and specifically for nailing several elements better than any other title in the AC series: Player Choice & Branching Narrative, The Mercenary & Cultist System, Mythological Integration, Overpowered Combat Abilities, Open World Exploration But what I'm trying to point out is that this game wasn't quite playable on most windows systems, until a few months after its release when most of the bugs were fixed. However, on Linux it ran completely flawless from day one, although DXVK had seen little development and refinement at the time. What do you think the situation will be in 2026 now that most bugs and glitches of DXVK have been completely eliminated? This is information from Google about these situations that I am quoting. In many cases, using DXVK (a translation layer that converts DirectX 9, 10, or 11 into Vulkan) can result in more stable frame times and higher performance than native Windows rendering. This happens primarily by bypassing driver overhead and multithreading draw calls that were previously restricted to a single CPU core. Older APIs (like DirectX 9 and 11) are largely single-threaded on the CPU side. DXVK translates these calls to Vulkan, which is highly multi-threaded. This reduces CPU-bound stuttering on weaker processors. In certain cases, GPU manufacturers (especially AMD) have significantly better and more modern Vulkan drivers than they do for legacy DirectX. Vulkan gives developers—and in this case, the translation layer—closer control over how resources are held in VRAM. This can prevent micro-stutters and sudden frame drops during chaotic gameplay. Yes, certain games, particularly older DirectX 9 to 11 titles, can run with fewer crashes on DXVK than on native Windows. By intercepting DirectX draw calls and translating them into the modern, highly efficient Vulkan API, DXVK bypasses the limitations and poor driver support that cause instability in aging game engines. PlayStation 1, PlayStation 2 and PlayStation 3 can be easily and perfectly emulated on Linux. In fact, modern Linux emulators offer high-performance upscaling, widescreen patches, and automatic controller mapping out of the box.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                 PlayStation 1/2/3 games look drastically better on Linux thanks to resolution upscaling. Furthermore, it is also a fact that you cannot play many fun games on Windows either, isn't it? - The Nintendo Switch has an extensive library of exclusive games. - PlayStation has an extensive library of exclusive games - Android has "mobile-exclusive" games, meaning they are exclusive to mobile devices (iOS and Android) and aren't available on PC or consoles. And finally, it is also the case that in the next five years there will be games that millions of people will say you absolutely must play and that they want to play this specific game that released a few days ago. However, the other side of this story is that currently, absolutely no one cares that they cannot play these upcoming games right now.
