I will log on one last time to say: Thanks for everything. I'll be keeping my eye on your further endeavors in the world of gaming.

I've been gone for...a...really long time. But my friend started playing BTW again recently, and decided to check out our base on the server, to see if it was still there. It was. You guys rock. This made my night:

I recently showed this game to my brother, and while showing explained the similarities between it and Better Than Wolves. After listening intently for a while, he said:
"I think the creators of both should get together and make a game greater than both and name it: 'Better Than Starving'."

Oh, sorry to the owner of the shack Tom found. Creeper hit me hard and knocked a lot of the base down before I starved to death :/ Gates, are you saying you're responsible for blowing up the base? Because it seems like this base was setup as someone with the intent of starting a new place consideri...

So, I recently logged back on to find myself spawned in the middle of nowhere. I assume my son got on one morning, logged me in, and let me die. Whatever. So I start my trek back home, get a nice amount of cooked steak, and start boating around to look for landmarks, or civilization. I found a cobbl...

Thanks so much for this FC!

EDIT: I'm special, just saw someone else suggesting the golems thing. Yeah, they'll rip him up. Are you wanting an epic battle, or a beacon? Because golems and suffocation are very simple to pull off.

Yeah, that was gonna be my big question, though I was sure I knew the answer, was if you were using hardcore bucket. It's amazing how much buildings change to accommodate that setting, but yet, I prefer it now. Just gotta take the dive.

Daaaaaaaang... That is some incredible work, man. Thank you! I had fun making it, and only ended up dying once (not counting the christening suicide). You're asking me to post my stuff? Dude, that building of yours is amazing. It fits in its surroundings, has style and uses materials that I'd long ...

I'm so glad this thread has got some love recently, this is awesome stuff guys! Keep them coming! Hey Graphite, any chance we could see the inside of some of those fantastic buildings you were showing off? Particularly I want to see the inside of the barn, but I love your stuff and would love any or...

The reddit respawn shack is mine. It bugged me that they ruined such a good design, so I fixed it, complete with secret chests in the ceiling, furnace/chimney, and trapdoor basement. Also, that was my original place, then a creeper got me outside my door, and blew up half of the shack. I couldn't fi...

Meh, nothing posted in the gaming world on April Fools is real news. You missed my point entirely. Where most gaming companies throw out ridiculous April Fools jokes, some of them actually use stuff they ARE going to implement. Take League of Legends for instance: I believe in 2011 their April Fool...

Proof that this is an April Fools: Added new Super Hostile game mode, for a much more challenging Survival experience. I finished reading all the patch notes and thought...I wonder which of these they actually are putting in the next version...and which are straight jokes. With how crazy Mojang has...

■Fixed a bug causing Skeletons to miss their targets on occasion. Bahahahahaahaaaaa. Oh...how I hate Skellies. ■Removed all BUD behaviour, and added safeguards so that it may never come back. It also seems they are letting out some frustration in these patch notes... EDIT: ■Added new BUD blocks. Ne...

It's really not tough man. General tutorials step-by-step you through making new items, blocks, and recipes. So designing a new axe made from flint and sticks should be very simple. Little to no java experience required. The very first mod I ever wrote was 3 flint making a spearhead, and then 2 stic...

I've never been good at DF. Feel free to use my name though.

My biggest problem was not knowing how the "breeding" of silverfish works. If you could harness their breeding mechanics into a system, you'd be golden.

After spending a little time, I managed a little trap that would passively collect stray silverfish into cobblestone blocks...but I'm not sure where to take it next as I don't know much of the mechanics of silverfish in The End. The trap was easy enough, with a piston, BB, and BD it registers when a...

I consider bedrock level mining not to be a lost cause (which again, is why I left gold as is), but to be specific, what I have triaged is surface level mining late game, when coal and iron cease to be meaningful deposits. Now hang on, I wouldn't say that coal ceases to be meaningful even in late g...

I'm not sure you have your computer working yet, but I've actually got a build request. A block eater, which detects and eats a block coming up at it from below, without using any blocks at or below the height of the block being detected. Visual description of the kind of mechanism I mean: I'm pret...

Something similar is about the best I have been able to come up with for mining use. Although while I knew I could use pulleys and platforms with minecarts, I haven't tried it yet. I like the setup, pretty clean and simple. The actual mechanisms required to build this are fairly complex to cram int...

What Miss_Kat says is true. Most texture pack skins are setup to replace the default skin. If the player has a special skin on their account, it won't work.

The bit said above is correct. The 9X9X3 test is done on the mushroom checking for spread. Then, it may place a mushroom somewhere in its vicinity. Thus, if you have a mushroom out on the edges that doesn't have 4 others within that area, it can then place a mushroom in an area that already contain...

Yup, I use them all the time. Not necessarily for 'mining', but for staying underground longer. I fill my inventory with food and pickaxes, and pile it all into a chest down in my mine, then whenever I want to clear out my inventory, I put them in my minecart chests, and send up the elevator, it dep...
