Been playing around with a simple spawn area to replace the pole on the hill in my test world, what do you guys think?

Go for it. I'll help terraforming if you want.

Please read over the original post. There are limited slots available. Hang around and talk to people on Neowin some before asking first. :)

Precisely - we're a bit wary of whitelisting one post wonders. No offence.

 

On topic: The map size has been increased further to 1700 x 1700 blocks.

Frank someone just griefed the woods that were between our places...

 

Edit: Never mind... had grass spawn too close to the pit

Edited by Matthew S.

Sorry to whomever was building in the trees in-between mine and Franks plots, I burned down the trees to space out the planting (and move my fence a bit) and realize as the last of the leafs were burning that there was a crafting table in the tree...

The Map is broken

 

The online map? Seems to be working for me. It hasn't been updated since it was first made over a week ago, so due for a refresh. I'll catch up with Lou and sort that out.

Is there any good way to find a slime chunk? I see them once in awhile in my mindshafts but cant for the life of me find a spawn area.

 

You need the world seed to find a slime chunk. I have made a slime farm in my base though. If you need some slime balls/blocks just let me know and I can drop them off somewhere for you.

What do you use slime for?

 

Maps seems to be working, i think its a work issue lol

 

Slime can be used for Sticky Pistons or for making the Slime block to stick blocks together or bounce on.

Thanks. Google indicated as much, but I didn't know if there was a more kosher way of finding one. Is that something that would be easy for an admin to help me find (rather than provide the seed)? I found some online tools and even an app that tells you a location if you have the seed. I would love some slimeballs until I can find my own chunk though. I want to make some slime blocks and more sticky pistons.

 

I placed a chest next to my cow and sheep pens at 307,68,509. Alternatively I can find you next time we're both online. Thanks

Yes, the admins can use the world seed to find slime chunks using those tools and then tell you which one is closest to your base. Louisifer did that for me, which is how I found out where to build my slime farm.

 

Alternatively, if you're finding slimes in your caves, you know that there is a slime chunk around there, you could try hollowing out an area around where you find them to see if you get more. Would take a while, but it would probably work in the end.

 

I must admit that slimes seem to spawn a lot less frequently in 1.8. I haven't collected as many slime balls as I would have expected. However I'm not near my base all that much, so I think ideally we want to build a slime farm near spawn so it is running more frequently.

I could use some slime balls :)  Just take a pick on one of the outer chests on the 3rd floor of my tower

 

Delivered, I put them in the chest closest to the crafting bench.

I put some in the chest for you.

    • BATorrent 3.0.3 is out.
    • The current Statcoungter desktop numbers has Google Chrome increasing it's market share this past year and currently commanding 75% share. Everybody else is just making up the numbers with even MS Edge losing 3% this past year and has dipped just below 10% share which is staggering considering it's default on every Windows deviced purchased. If these numbers are correct that terrible Edge number is both devastating and embarrassing for MS especially when you add in the terribly low Bing market share. This leads me to ask a couple of questions as the default browser holding just less than 10% market share seems really weird. It used to be that all Chromium browsers were being counted as Google Chrome in some cases.  Is this still happening? Do these high Google Chrome numbers contains some Edge user numbers?
    • Yeah, all web browsers seem to have some junk in them these days. The regular Brave browser has a lot of unnecessary stuff in it, similar to Microsoft Edge, so I don't see any benefits of using Brave over Microsoft Edge if you already have Microsoft Edge fully set up with adblockers and that. The cleanest or best free browser outside of 'Microsoft Edge' I’ve tried so far is 'Opera Air'. It still has some bloat, but nowhere near as much as Brave browser, for example. I also really like the web browser called 'Floorp' that is based on Firefox. I have a system wide Adblocking program for Windows 11 that doesn't just blocks ads in the the web browser, but over the whole thing. I don't really need a web browser with an inbuilt adblocker because of that.
