Come join the new Minecraft server discussion thread :)

I have Forge, Voxel Map, Damage Indicators, Ingame Info XML, and Monster Spawn Indicators, so I'll stick to 1.7.2 until they're updated. I don't tend to bother with Optifine, but it is available for 1.7.2.

Just a thought,

 

can we get the IRC Transport Plugin for Bukkit and then add a channel to the IRC and then people on IRC can chat with folks in the game :D

love this idea :)

Don't know how long the shaders mod has been out....

 

Still a bit buggy though.

I've tried getting some of the pretty shaders to work and they just don't work. I usually end up with MC hung at a white screen. Shame really as a few of the shaders look really pretty.

It looks like there's a new mob in town called Endermites and they can spawn if Endermen take damage.

 

Endermen will agro on these new mobs and try to kill it in groups (like Pigmen) and the Endermites will try and kill you.

 

I have a feeling that the ender farm is going to get very interesting come 1.8 :P

Endermites only spawn when an enderman teleports, so the end farm should be ok.

 

At least that's what I've seen.

Carts now also derail if they're going too fast into a turn.

 

Seems like a pointless and horrible change.

 

Yup, yet again a silly 'feature' added that pretty much no-one wants, yet other useful stuff that would be really easy (clay steps/half slabs anyone???) are left out. Fingers crossed that one will be withdrawn.

I believe you can build a fence around the corner and it'll stop the cart derailing. At least for now.

It is a bit of a silly feature as you can only have a corner over one block. If you could drag a corner out and make it longer over multiple blocks. Then it would make sense.

Just tried that, and it does stop the cart derailing, but it also - occasionally - stops the cart dead in its tracks. It wouldn't be so bad if the derailing happened on 180 turns, but it's also on 90 turns, so any turn can derail if it's too fast.

Did a little test and found that the cart won't stop or derail if it's blocked off around the corner like this, instead of right on it.

Should be fine then really.

Here are some screenshots of the server I just took while testing a new shader.

    • I like the show more options. The only problem with it is that it's not always in a consistent spot in the menu. If the copy/paste/cut, happens to show on top, then more option is the last in the menu. But if copy/paste/cut happens to show on the bottom, then more options is before the copy/paste/cut. But I do like the more options because it hides the stuff that I rarely use. But I would like to choose what it is or isn't hiding. That would make it better.
    • I wonder if "put it back the way it was for decades" ever crossed their minds? 🤣
    • Rescind the stupid "Show more options" in context menus and just give us the full menu instead of adding more steps to get to what we want. The "simpler by default" makes me think they'll go in the opposite direction. Every context menu should have a configure button so you can pick and choose what options should be shown, I know you can do that with some registry fu but that shouldn't be required.
    • This is why competition must exist. Finally, pressure is mounting on Microsoft to move in the right direction.
    • Microsoft is making Windows 11's context menus faster, simpler, and configurable by Taras Buria Five years ago, Windows 11 introduced redesigned context menus, offering users a simpler, more modern design. However, customers quickly discovered that the new menus leave a lot to be desired. Many are unhappy with performance (they are really slow), while others dislike the double-layed design, where many options are hidden behind the "Show more options" button. In addition, over the years, menus became cluttered and overloaded. While Microsoft has already fixed plenty of pain points across Windows 11, context menus remain mostly unchanged. Fortunately, Microsoft is finally listening. Marcus Ash, Design and Research Lead for Windows at Microsoft, responded to a tweet on X, confirming that the company is working on fixing Windows 11's context menus. Reworked context menus are supposed to be faster, simpler by default, and "configurable to what you use most." What the latter means is unknown, just like whether Microsoft plans to keep the classic menu alongside the modern one, but according to Marcus, the wait should finally be over soon, as he promised to "share our approach soon." Improved context menus will most likely appear first in Windows 11 preview builds in the Experimental Channel. While we wait for Microsoft to release them, you can try fixing context menus on your PC with a simple tool called Windows 11 Context Menu Manager. It lets you disable entries you do not need, not only cleaning up context menus, but also making them significantly faster. Microsoft has already improved Windows 11's Start menu and taskbar, so hopefully it will address user criticism of the context menu as well. Stay tuned for new Windows 11 preview builds, which usually arrive every Friday.
