Unofficial Minecraft Discussion XXXIII

Server is up, but minecraft.net is sketchy. Server WAS down. Seems like we will need to ditch http://88.198.17.4:8123/ feature for now, as it has caused 2 crashes in 3 days.

I would love to remake Vivec, and other cities too. I don't think Vivec would even fit in a 300x300 area, considering 1 block per square meter. Someone should take a measurement.

Just did a rough map of one canton, seems like they are about 46 blocks tall, starting from the floors of the sewer, not counting below the water.

Do we have an area of where to put it? I could scout for one since I'm on.


EDIT: Nevermind, I'm getting end of stream messages.

Minecraft just doesn't like me today.

Anyway, I'm up for a Vivec project. Based on Pov's screenshots, I think dirt would be a more appropriate material than sandstone.

It certainly would be easier, I don't think it would look very nice though. What does everyone else think?

A pretty simple design. There are 6 outer doors leading outside, 4 in the middle leading to a different interior cell (a tavern, home or shop they usually are. It shouldn't be too hard to squeeze something in there), and there's a lower passage with a door that leads to the canols level.

I'll be sure to use a top down view when dividing it into blocks.

I'm redrafting with this awesome tool called http://cubekingdom.web.fc2.com/. So far this project looks rather impossible.

Doesn't look too bad. It's the overall size of the project that's going to kill us, IMO.

Also, I know I'm going to get a lot of flak for this idea, but I think we should refrain from spawning stuff for people while doing this project. Having items spawned for us is what caused the whole fiasco with the last map, which led to this map, and I know no one wants that again. And don't say that won't happen again. It will. It always does.

Now, here's what I propose. Whatever material we decide to build the canton out of, TankJump will spawn himself. We'll do a rough estimate of how much we'll need, and then TankJump will spawn that and only that and hand it out to whoever wants to help. After that, we build up the canton as best we can with that material, as a sort of outline, and if we come up too short with the material Tank can spawn the rest. Once that's done, we gather the remaining materials we need. All of the other materials we need will mostly be for decoration, so we won't need nearly as much as the main material, and it will be fairly easy to gather.

Sounds good. Or I will just buy the material myself. Also, english version of cube kingdom on this page: http://www.modminecraft.com/category/tools/

Server is fine. Minecraft is down. If you can get online and the minecraft auth server stays up, you can play the game.

I really hope this gets fixed soon. This Saturday was supposed to be my "Binge Minecraft Day."

Also; when will I be able to purchase that plot?

What I have so far with cube kingdom for a canton. I'd recommend looking into auto hot key and rapid fire mouse script for editing.

Council check out jaimies, just made a post about plot pricing. Please advise.

My first guess was that 1 canton would be about 40 blocks high. 6 above water for the canolworks, 12 each for the next 2 levels, and then 10 for the upper dome. Then with it being just slightly wider than it is tall I'd go for about 56 blocks wide at the base.

Oh, and I see there's a nice big desert region east of the city. Start your shovels, fellas.

I tried connecting to the server just now... Apparently I'm off the whitelist since I waffled when we changed worlds. I can has whitelisting?

And while I was searching for some sort of lolcat Minecraft crossover (which doesn't seem to exist) I found this. It was funny. Apologies if it's old hat.

I would like to make a formal request that the lava on either side of our Nether portal be removed as I died while loading in from the Nether from said lava and lost all my inventory.

I think I've been banned from the sever? I'm putting in the IP from the OP, and it's telling me I've been banned. Considering I've never been in the server (apart from that one time which I'm not even sure if I was in the right server) I'm somewhat confused.

There's apparently a glitch where if you get taken to the wrong server, it bans you from our server. You'll have to talk to MrTankJump about it.
