using the new clone feature i had an idea (but cannot get it working yet) you can create rooms that are all the same dimension and hide them in your base or home or whatnot. and then create an empty room. From there you can use the command block and buttons to "move" the rooms to your empty room. Making a single room that can be whatever room you want it to be.

 

The issues I see would be with storage in these rooms, You would have to overwrite the master if ever you added stuff to chests and then there's the chance destroyed chests would spill its contents like it does with /setblock

 

Would work well if storage wasn't involved because you would get infinite items if you kept restoring from the master :P

yeah storage would be a problem but you could use an ender chest and just makes rooms like crafting, potions, smelting and so on for smaller stuff. more of a proof of concept or just something cool.

 

it was just an idea i had and like i said i have not been able to get the cloneing tool to work properly for me yet.

We can figure out when to switch to 1.8 at an opportune time. Should we wait on a Bukkit build this time perhaps before upgrading?

 

For the record, I've installed the latest Bukkit dev build on the server just now.

 

And don't forget the building contest - kind of disappointed by the lack of response to it thus far.

Yes. Definitely.

That would be because I didn't spot the new thread (I don't look in Gamers Hangout), I was expecting at least a link from this thread - maybe I missed it.

What is the name of that texure pack? I used to use it myself but I lost it during a HDD wipe and forgot the name.

Sphax PureBDcraft :)

 

And killed the bugger. Made slightly easier by the fact that mob damage is off.

 

Maybe next time I can turn it on for you :P

So I've just found out that the server now has the ability to lock chests.

1) How do we do/not do this?

2) Does opening a locked chest have to result in instant death with no warning? That's out of order IMHO.

    • Media Player Classic - Home Cinema 2.7.2 by Razvan Serea Media Player Classic - Home Cinema (MPC-HC) is a free and open-source video and audio player for Windows. MPC-HC is based on the original Guliverkli project (which is no longer maintained) and contains many additional features and bug fixes. As the continuation of the original Media Player Classic, MPC-HC isn’t flashy but it works with nearly any media format. MPC-HC uses DXVA technology to pass decoding operations to your modern video card, enhancing your viewing experience. And MPC-HC supports both physical and software DVDs with menus, chapter navigation, and subtitles. Overview of features A lot of people seem to be unaware of some of the awesome features that have been added to MPC-HC in the past years. Here is a list of useful options and features that everyone should know about: Dark interface Menu > View > Dark Theme When using dark theme it is also possible to change the height of the seekbar and size of the toolbar buttons. Options > Advanced Video preview on the seekbar Options > Tweaks > Show preview on seek bar Adjust playback speed Menu > Play > Playback rate The buttons in the player that control playback rate take a 2x step by default. This can be customized to smaller values (like 10%): Options > Playback > Speed step Adjusting playback speed works best with the internal audio renderer. This also has automatic pitch correction. Options > Playback > Output > Audio Renderer MPC-HC can remember playback position, so you can resume from that point later Options > Player > History You can quickly seek through a video with Ctrl + Mouse Scrollwheel. You can jump to next/previous file in a folder by pressing PageUp/PageDown. You can perform automatic actions at end of file. For example to go to next file or close player. Options > Playback > After Playback (permanent setting) Menu > Play > After Playback (for current file only) A-B repeat - You can loop a segment of a video. Press [ and ] to set start and stop markers. You can rotate/flip/mirror/stretch/zoom the video Menu > View > Pan&Scan This is also easily done with hotkeys (see below). There are lots of keyboard hotkeys and mouse actions to control the player. They can be customized as well. Options > Player > Keys Tip: there is a search box above the table. You can stream videos directly from Youtube and many other video websites You can stream videos directly from Youtube and many other video websites Put yt-dlp.exe or youtube-dl.exe in the MPC-HC installation folder. Then you can open website URLs in the player: Menu > File > Open File/URL You can even download those videos: Menu > File > Save a copy Tip: to be able to download in best quality with yt-dlp/youtube-dl, it is recommended to also put ffmpeg.exe in the MPC-HC folder. Several YDL configuration options are found here: Options > Advanced This includes an option to specify the location of the .exe in case you don't want to put it in MPC-HC folder. Play HDR video This requires using madVR or MPC Video Renderer. After installation these renderers can be selected here: Options > Playback > Output Ability to search for and download subtitles, either automatically or manually (press D): Options > Subtitles > Misc Besides all these (new) features, there have also been many bugfixes and internal improvements in the player in the past years that give better performance and stability. It also has updated internal codecs. Support was added for CUE sheets, WebVTT subtitles, etc. Media Player Classic - Home Cinema 2.7.2 changelog: Updated LAV Filters to version 0.81-23-g6fadb Updated MPC Video Renderer to version 0.10.2.2540 Updated MediaInfo DLL to version 26.05 Updated MPC Audio Renderer Several crash fixes, bug fixes and small improvements.

    • No problems here using the new Outlook. In our company we started to default installing to users on new computers or when we're reimaging. But, if the user needs/ask for the classic one, we install it. Low reject rate at this point.
    • Yeah it's my only home/business computer. The Surface Pen magnetic Storage is on the left side, but it doesn't charge the Pen. I do the charging once every 6+ months by interchanging between 2 rechargeable AAAA batteries and charging the other via a USB A battery charger.
