Re: water in nether

are you okay with cheating ice in? or the water block itself? IC^2 allows for you to compact snow into Ice.. I know this is a separate mod from BTW, but it is a Forge mod.. which means it's an option that you can have... Other than that, windmills are simply a better option for mechanical power, or...

Re: ASK ABOUT BTW UPDATE TO 1.8 = GET BANNED

i was trawling through notches tweets and noticed this one from yesterday: The reason we're releasing stuff so closely now is a push before the release in November! Server admins and modders, have patience. ;) so it's probably going to be like this for at least the next month and a half Pretty much...

Re: MCForge is awesome...

... As Batto said: Notch does not have anything against modders since it is what's keeping minecraft alive for a lot of users. It wouldn't be good business to counteract them and Mojang knows this. Saying anything else is just... false. I'll believe it when I see it... plus: "We retain the rig...

Re: MCForge is awesome...

Magus, in April there was a post on Notch's blog that stated that Mojang wanted to set up a sytem that allows mod developers to sign up for full access to the code. I highly doubt that there's any plans for that to change, especially when you consider that modding is what keeps players interested i...

Re: MCForge is awesome...

I sincerely hope Notch keeps adding lots and lots of aesthetic blocks. If he manages to use up enough, he'll effectively break modding and will have to come up with a block ID solution. So keep bugging him about more aesthetic blocks :) Or... he'll accomplish the goal of disallowing modding in the ...

Anyone still playing 1.73? Please chime-in if so.

You make it sound like he's doing it on purpose. Notch is in a catch 22 with this, if he doesn't release patches people complain about the bugs, when he does they complain it breaks the mods! Mojang does not yet officially support modding (even if they appreciate some of the cool mods people make a...
