Re: [Spoilers] BTW Tech Tree Visualization as of v4.B000002

Thanks for putting the time into creating this again! I used the previous version extensively to keep myself on track. I just made a new world after a packed summer and will definitely be using this.

Re: New Release! (BTW 4.AB4 Bonnets) - NO SPOILERS

I never thought I would enjoy the new BTW experience, but I came around. Took a few weeks of getting my arse kicked and rage quitting, though. Then it finally hit me: I was actually using my head to conquer the world around me rather than auto piloting diamond. I'm on my 6th respawn in my current wo...

Re: Recent Villager changes. [Spoilers]

Shoot, there goes my early game habits of early game wheat. It will be a tough habit to beat, but all of these new updates have been really making me think of new approaches to old problems.

For clarification does the decay only begin when the player first makes contact with villagers?

Re: Recent Villager changes. [Spoilers]

Ahh okay I get where you're coming from with villagers better now, FC. The reason I suggested the idea was because villagers dying to a cow feels more detrimental to newer players than the experienced ones. An experienced player who understands the new changes will bring provisions they know will wo...

Re: The Feature Request / Suggestion Thread - LIMITED TIME O

A hat made from the companion cube solely for it to bark when you're hit. Something I've been thinking about is nether portals leaving the chunk they are in loaded like original spawn. Honestly, I have no idea about performance or gameplay issues that would result from that. I'm just throwing it out...

Re: Diamonds

It's in spoiler territory, but there's other reasons you probably wouldn't want to do that kind of thing anymore either. It's one of those risk versus rewards things. I've definitely been in the spot where world generation hasn't gone my way, so looking at it objectively exploring for desert temple...

Re: hardcore poking

FC, you've said yourself you don't like things that screw you without a way to circumvent it, and in that front hardcore poking certainly is necessary. The usage does just feel limited to determining a permanent pathing for the average paranoid BTWer (and aesthetics which I love), but that's not a b...

Re: Diamonds

As a first note, this is probably better just in the discussion thread. Diamonds are one of my bane of existences, as well. But then I learned about desert temples. Before boat changes I used to go straight out past HCS territory to find goodies as soon as I get the materials for a compass. Now it m...

Re: Recent Villager changes. [Spoilers]

EDIT: Oke, nvm. I was indeed too impatient. Yep, they need some time to turn back. I didn't think about it either so I got chased around some before making pitfalls. Ive got a second group of zombies to check how many urns a villager needs and if they truly have aoe. (Plus if zombie villagers will ...

Re: Recent Villager changes. [Spoilers]

Well the saga of the terror village is over. From my HCS I got my compass and made my way back, prepared 16 soul urns for the villagers and set out. Thanks to some vines from a nearby jungle biome I entrapped most of the zombies in pitfalls (lost one to a cow, hoping it wasn't the priest). Found som...

Re: Recent Villager changes. [Spoilers]

I think you may be on to something Psion since during my exploration I found tons of jungle, but no cocoa beans (or none that I noticed). The villager trade tweaks may now include all the different food items like carrots, cocoa, etc. Have to see what someone further in says. I really like this upda...

Recent Villager changes. [Spoilers]

Has anyone else reached occupied villages with the recent patch? I just did and I want to make sure what I experienced is in fact the recent changes to villagers. After a few hours time tunneling through the nether I finally found a village close by, to which I was so excited I sprinted towards it. ...

Re: Transporting villagers (spoilers)

I brought back all of my villagers to my main base mostly because almost every nether portal I had made landed me in biomes that should have villages, but never did. I went all directions in the nether going in between 500-600 blocks. I dont know if my seed had a smaller chance for villages to happe...

The most heartbreaking moment

Well there I was super excited for the new update. I screwed up my mc-patcher patch job. I'm not sure how I did it, but it happened. When I went in to continue my world it was vanilla. I went back and re-patched it back to the newest marsupial then continued my journey back home from a village I had...

Re: Strata Warriors (survival Co-op) SMP Server [BTWPhillip]

My experience with BTW? I used to play the mod way back when, recently have tried out the newest version and have made it past crucible. Why? It would be neat to join in others in creating a new world rather than playing by myself. I would like to help build up and let other people see what I can cr...

Well I have a plan on how to move forward, thanks everyone for the tips! My mob trap is coming nicely, just had to kill a few pigmen for their swords. Carefully.

Oh boy. I suppose this is why I quit playing vanilla, by this time I would be done with the entire game! With all of your inputs a mob farm it will be. For some reason I've had large amounts of zombies carrying swords/shovels, maybe I built on an old battleground... Gold is the main issue so far, up...

Hello all, I have decided to quit lurking and join the community. So, I have managed to get the farthest into BTW I have ever gotten: I finally made a crucible. What options are there now? I was strictly following the wiki's beginners guide, and it kinda cuts off there. I have vague ideas about auto...
