P~M Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 (edited) That sounds awesome, Artezza, but I'm just going to be going with pseudo-vanilla (AKA vanilla with a few Bukkit plugins), so no go on that. Sorry.Plus, since everyone would know the seed, they could cheat by opening it in SP Creative and finding diamonds and such in that, then going to those coords in MP and taking the diamonds or whatever.I'll let you guys know as soon as I get my laptop. I can't wait myself!I saw a minecrafter named Zisteau make an Endervator. The idea is that an enderpearl is thrown up at a ceiling, and when you get teleported up you trigger a tripwire that closes the floor beneath you. Consecutive jumps would lead upward to his floating home. Its quite clever.Ender pearls have the interesting property of occasionally lodging you in a wall. I discovered this on Nav's server a few months back. It was so funny. Someone who was watching started freaking out, lol.

HeavyMetalSunshineSister Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 It's not so much killing someone out of thin air as it is ogres going aggro through a wall. If the wall was made of a sturdy material - marble, basalt, obsidian, anything tougher than cobblestone - then it's likely that an ogre could have made the kill without causing any telltale structural damage.

Flipz Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Tekkit. I must say, I'm really loving the absence of Mo' Creatures, the only things I miss are the horses and the rats. Everything else was just...annoying. :PAnyhow, I enabled NEI cheat mode and gave myself back everything I had lost, then fixed all the world changes that reverted, plus I played around with a few spawn eggs for fun.. As an added bonus, rain started working the way it was supposed to after setting NEI back to "recipe" mode, so...win!

HeavyMetalSunshineSister Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 (edited) Okay so I have no idea what killed you. Also you're kind of lame for not relishing the idea of punching werewolves to death.Meanwhile, would anyone care to offer their opinion on the domed structure on top of the completed half of the step-pyramid? I'm not entirely certain on it, so I'd like some feedback before I build the second one.

Flipz Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 punching werewolves to death.If werewolves come at the cost of having to deal with manta rays, mice (the ones that drop only seeds), and those obnoxious scorpions, I can live without the pleasure of fighting them. :-P Plus, if you recall, Technic crashes when you use Gravity Greaves on Mo' Creatures mobs, so there's that as well. :-POverall, it looks good, except for that tallest spike; it looks weird. If you added a flag to it (maybe a colored wool block cut into a long, narrow strip?), it would look okay, but as-is I don't like that part.

HeavyMetalSunshineSister Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 I don't usually mess with mantas, the mice don't bug me, and scorpions can be one-hit-killed. Plus, I don't use the Gravity Greaves.It's based on Hindi architecture. Also, on the advice of Basilisk, it looks a little bit more like this now.

Flipz Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Looks much better now. ;-)Are Rubber Trees supposed to be this hard to farm in Tekkit? I got 3 saplings out of 2 rubber trees when I cut them down to bring to a home farm; since then, I've only cut down infertile trees, and I only ever get 1 sapling from each tree. How can I get a good-sized rubber farm going if I can't get multiple saplings per tree?

HeavyMetalSunshineSister Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 I neither know nor care what it looks like on Default, because I don't like Default, and LB Photorealism is where the awesome is at. The white material (marble) would look exactly the same, and the other materials are smooth sandstone, lapis, and gold, with a glowstone block in the floor lighting the whole thing. So the lapis would look like I don't know, the smooth sandstone would look less smooth, probably, the gold would look like a crayon, and the glowstone would look like coral with fetal alcohol syndrome, which shouldn't even be possible for coral but apparently it is since default glowstone exists.

HeavyMetalSunshineSister Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 (edited) Well, they could fix it very simply by making ice microblocks not melt, or by making them not produce water when they melt. Or, they could give up since ice has an EMC value of 1, so I've got infinite ice anyway.Either way, not allowing ice-carving really screws up ice sculpting.

HeavyMetalSunshineSister Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Negative on those.And I don't see why it would have to be either/or on glowstone or ice blocks. Ice is just more relevant to my current projects, because I didn't pay all that much attention to the biomes near where I was putting what started as a pretty simple ornamental well, so now the taiga across the river is a little bit problematic.
