I've been gone way too long... This is amazing! Everything I thought was wrong with the Vanilla enchantment table fixed in one swoop! And that weird trick with the air pockets as bonus. But no more time for talk, I want to play BTW. As a side note, the strange version number made me think this was a...

No, several mods have done it in the past. However, horses will indeed likely have gender, though gender in this sense doesn't necessarily mean gender in the sense of real life. Think of it more like having two different varieties of horses. I see, interesting; can't wait to see this when it comes ...

Grum mentioned the cause of this in IRC. «+Grum» he found some issue that might have been the cause of it «+Grum» rather horridly scary weird bug «+Grum» when animals spawn they have a 'default sized' boundingbox «+Grum» when then during init we look up the right size and set it ... but it grows on...

Is this addon adding the first ever situation of entity gender to Minecraft?

The removal of trapdoor-redstone interactivity did break a few of my minor builds, but I've honestly never used any wooden vanilla object with redstone (i.e., wood doors, trapdoors, fence gates, etc.) mainly because it's always just felt weird when compared to things like iron doors. I was a little ...

so boats are broken apparently: Saw this coming a mile off. Left shift was a good idea, but boats are now basically unusable 1.6. Furthermore, the resource-packs suck hard. As to the new mod installation process, I don't know. It seems a bit more complex than it needs to be, but I don't think it's ...

Thank you for another great update. I'm happy to see the early game finally being polished up and the mod moving back toward its original goals with the new redstone changes after fixing Mojang's numerous mistakes. With such a large release, I think I'll be doing a lot of playing today. Synthetic re...

....and they seem to have taken the whole thing to the next level. http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1865131-upside-down-mobs-easter-egg/ I mean, sure, why not, can't always take everything seriously and throw in some fun stuff every once in a while. I mean it would be very funny if you had a map...

People actually use tripwire hooks? I don't think I've ever even crafted one. What makes them so much better than other redstone input devices (namely pressure plates)?

I understand the pre-anvil item detection thing, but what are you using item detection for before getting an anvil?

I'm an idiot. It appears Mojang fixed the blast radius changing between difficulties as a bug/exploit back in MC 1.3.1. I really should have tested this with uniform surrounding blocks.

I only ever play on normal, and that's all I balance for. So, whatever you're getting on hard is just whatever random stuff Mojang has tweaked for their hard mode. In other words: don't feel guilty playing on normal given that as far as I am concerned, it's all that exists. I've been tempted on man...

Strangely enough, on my monitor, the difference between Bright and Moody is not great in terms of actually being able to see things at light level zero. Either way, I can generally see just about everything. I always keep it on Bright because I personally think blocks and such look better to me on t...

I'm sorry if I came off as rude before, I was just rather annoyed and didn't have time for an installation tutorial. I've already figured out the issue; because I'm on a Mac, the "net" folder that's in the BTW folder was overwriting the net folder in the minecraft.jar, which is essential ...

I really don't know what could be causing this, but I'm guessing that there is some form of file corruption or install-specific issues going on. Here's what I would do (and I know you know most if not all of this already, but at least you can keep track of what you're doing): 1. Force Update Minecra...

I think the howling is significant somehow, more than just being creepy. Maybe that's how the wolves turn- they hear the howls of The Beast and it changes them. Worth looking into, anyway. In my own testing, the only way I could get wolves to turn into the Beast was by feeding them rotten flesh. Al...

Is it me, or is it raining great LPs on these forums? First Icy with FC, then this. Anyways, this LP series is hilarious. I don't think I've laughed this much in quite some time. Hoping to see more soon.

MC 1.7 a biome/ocean update? Apparently even further major screwing with world generation is now deemed necessary. More mobs and especially ones that are artificially difficult? Of course.

I don't know if it really will be "before July," but it looks like MC 1.6 is coming up on us fast.

Holy crap, so there are going to be <does math in head> somewhere in the realm of/up to fifteen episodes total?!

I look forward to watching.

Err... I think you may be a tad confused about how much of the earth is actually covered in snow based on the size distortion of the extreme latitudes experienced while looking at a map... I'm not that stupid, sir ;). No, taiga and tundra actually take up a large percent of earth's landmass, no jok...

Yet again I am late to the party, but wow. The moment I saw this thread title, who authored it, and the fact that it contained an actual video link, I cancelled my afternoon business and grabbed a bag of popcorn. This is going to be good. I'm still watching the first episodes, but I am definitely no...

Well, the ayl.class is the GUI Container Class file (assuming you are on BTW v4.84), so I am actually rather surprised that the game is working. At any rate, this is likely going to cause quite a number of issues with BTW blocks and such which have inventories that can be opened by the player. Anywa...

I thought it was being referred to as the UHC update ;).

There's a reason why Optifine is used by so many in the Forge community. Risu is Risugami, the maker of Modloader, who has also made some of the only mods remaining that use Modloader.

As you know, BTW is pretty well the best mod out there in terms of gameplay depth and extent added. I don't have any specific suggestions, though I once tried out TerraFirmaCraft, which was pretty fun, but I just thought you ought to know that virtually every mod out there these days for the current...
