    Ropes and pulleys would be much appreciated, Notch. I wants me a drawbridge and dumbwaiter, dag-gum it!
    It's speculated that the Gear is going to return eventually, in which case ropes, motors, and pulleys would be obvious progressions.

    It's been around a while, but I don't think this has been posted here before, so here's the minecraft song:


    I prefer this one

  • I thought to add this to the fold:

  • I agree with that except for "it does not drop anything good." Gunpowder is the shit.
  • Biomes Reveal!
  • 1:49. A volcano.

    HOLY FUCK.

    Looks like lava spilling out of a cliff face on closer inspection.

    Looking forward to the rest of the videos for the other biomes.

    That's kind of an exaggeration.
    Also, natural lava flows have been around in Minecraft for a while. They aren't too common, though.

  • What would be interesting is to try coding AIs that interact within the Minecraft world. Roving herds that reproduce, are preyed upon, migrate... Creaper villages and tribes interacting and warring. Earthquakes, sinkholes, cave-ins.

    A little bit, yeah.

    I though Notch killed them several updates back. Apparently, I was wrong.

    I'd participate in that.

    Creeper tribes would be pretty funny due to their kamikaze nature.

  • Has anyone tried out the redstone wiring? I'm still a bit lost on setting up circuits, but this video was really inspirational (though confusing).

  • How exactly do the wires connect to the train tracks to move them?
  • If you do track on stone on torch the torch will switch the track above it. On flat, you just have to connect the redstone to the track.
  • If you do track on stone on torch the torch will switch the track above it. On flat, you just have to connect the redstone to the track.
    So you place the torch below so that it heats up the stone with the track on it?
  • It's not to do with heat. Redstone is mostly independent of the games narrative logic and is mostly just for making circuits with.
    The placing combination is used because you can't place track directly on top of redstone.
  • That video is awesome, what would be more awesome is making that save file available. I mean I just about have the time to make a waterfall elevator by myself. Are there external editors for the game?
  • Are there external editors for the game?
    If there were, I would be on that like cookie monster on cookies.
  • Several are available, not sure if any of them are useful. I use the INV editor when I'm to lazy to make anything.
  • I came home to a burning house today. In hindsight, I guess it was not the best idea to build a lava garbage disposal in a house with hardwood floors.

    I thought you meant your house was on fire for real real, not for play play, then I saw lava.
  • Used INVedit to stock up on TNT. I sunk a 20x20 shaft to the adminium before an in-game day had ended.
  • You gotta watch out, them lava squares do shoot fireballs.

    That was partially intended. I noticed it could be construed that way and left it for fun. You guys have to check the threads you're in.
  • The future of minecraft Also, start hoarding obsidian.
  • I've already begun using INVedit to build Obsidian Foundries in each of my world.
  • Alright, I finally showed my monetary support and bought the game. I downloaded the skin maker, and now I look like this. I'm gonna make some more tonight.
  • I have a nice, developed compound going.
