Unless it happens several times with a good bit of time in between each death, I wouldnt be too concerned about it - Random is random, respawning has an equal chance of putting you pretty much everywhere within the hardcore spawn range. Just enjoy your luck for now :)

I cannot seem to get a server to generate a world using the new worldtype - Are you sure about the "BIOMESOP" setting?

...and within 5 minutes had an "Oh...lapis..." Damn you Lapis!!!! <shakes fist> This excites me way more than it probably should... Despite you being this desperate to moving on your own stuff, I really do love that you refuse to leave any stone unturned and any item lacking purpose and d...

Are you using a high definition texture pack, and in that case, are you using MCPatcher to install BTW or just doing it manually? You have a beast of a pc with a very shitty monitor resolution, so you're literally in a situation with all the power in the world and nothing to spend it on. Minecraft s...

Hello, Couldn't pass such addon by. For some reason though, the generation changes each time I turn Minecraft off and back on. As if the seed changes. Anyone else getting this kind of error? Yeah, I can confirm this. Seems the world generation changes every time Minecraft is restarted - even though...

Of course we need more information, you cannot diagnose a problem without knowing anything about it at all.

At the very least we need your hardware configuration, java version, whether you're making sure minecraft is using 64-bit java, graphics driver version and your standard screen resolution.

I'd be interested in taking a turn as well - I'll record for the youtubes too. I have time whenever, so just prod me either here or on the IRC when its my turn.

Make sure that you have particles set to maximum - I havent tested this, but it doesnt hurt to check at least :)

Just updated the OP with the latest episode in my educational Lets Play!

Civ5's on the daily deal for 75% off. That goes for everything but Brave New World, which you can pick up a Steam code for at Green Man Gaming for 30% off if you use the code on its page. Just as an addition to here, if you do decide to purchase it, it is well worth going for the Gold edition - It ...

I love how hunting creepers is now also an alternative source of food, should one be desperate enough :)

If you have a hopper you NEED stuff to fall into, like a soul sand one, place it as far away from a water drop as possible, so there is shallow water above, and undertow plus speed up wont carry items past it.

I made you a quick little trailer for the addon, showing off at least a couple of the biomes included - Feel free to use it any way you wish!

He did release a tech demo, which you could download and run without purchase to determine if the game would run...

[quote="kregoth"]snip/quote] After having a couple of short conversations with Grum on the IRC about the Minecraft Terms of Use (it came up in a discussion about the difference between a mod API, which will never happen (his words!), and a plugin API, which is what they are working on), it...

I absolutely love this series! I've watched every episode so far, but it seems ironic that your pals aren't keeping up with the series, and they're in it! xD Whenever I talk about "my videos", I refer to the series of Better Than Wolves tutorial videos I have been doing on my own channel ...

I'd almost forgotten about this post, but the series is far from done! We just released episode 32 of Survival of the Fattest, in which we return to build our modest shack!

May I make a suggestion for a description for tanned leather? Tanned Leather: It was hard and dirty work making it (referring to the dung), but the results seem worth it. This tanned leather hide seems sturdy enough to be used in creating some interesting and possibly powerful things for all kinds ...

Why not make his own API while at it or just call every modder to make thier mod a BTW addon?

And yes - it would be amusing.

FC already made an API - It was called forge... :-p

And immediatly following that, the Forge fanboys start coming out, even mentioning FC by name, thus highjacking Kahr's thread with more dead horse beating... Lovely. I reported him for flamebaiting, so hopefully a mod will step in to stop it before Kahr's thread turns into a full on flamewar. Well,...

As with all other difficult games, the more frustrated you are, the more likely you are to make a mistake and die horribly. You need to be relaxed, focused and most of all: careful. Don't take unneeded risks, know when to cut your losses and retreat, and never go out at night unless you absolutely h...

I also second that it makes more sense to compare BTW with other games rather than Minecraft mods - Largely because, as you have mentioned yourself, Steve is just waaaay too powerful a being. In vanilla minecraft, you can reach nigh-godmode within a couple of hours of play, and unless a mod changes ...

If you stretch your definitions just a tiny bit, you could say that BTW has a number of "boss encounters", where you work up for a long while for something, preparing carefully, and then when you finally pull the switch, you are awarded immensely. A couple of these things that spring to mi...

Something simple like "Doohickey", "Mechanism" or even just "Golden Gear" would suit it best I believe.
