New Release! (BTW V4.AAAAAAABBB) - NO SPOILERS
Version 4.AAAAAAABBB of Better Than Wolves is ready for download!
Download Link
This release contains the following changes:
-Added a visual indicator of whether some storage blocks contain items.
-Changed the way Raw Mutton looks in order to make it more visually distinct from Cooked Mutton.
-Changed the name of Coal Dust to better communicate its use.
-Changed how fire renders internally to hopefully help with issues with some texture packs.
-Changed the starter chest to be less so.
-Changed the Grate and Wicker Pane recipes to require Wood Moulding rather than just Shafts.
-Changed the way torches work internally so that they're added to your inventory in a more intuitive manner and to hopefully reduce or eliminate the flicker that would occur sometimes in SMP.
-Changed some log types to not be fully transparent to light.
-Changed some dirt slabs to be able to combine with grass slabs.
-Changed Shafts and some torch types to be crushed by falling blocks.
-Changed chest minecarts to not be quite so chesty.
-Removed the Workbench from villages.
-Removed generated torches in villages and abandoned mines.
-Removed the early game glass recipe.
-Fixed problem where using the number keys to swap items to the hotbar would sometimes cause the relevant slots to display the wrong item.
-Fixed a problem with blocks under destroyed snow not always rendering correctly.
Deepest Sympathies!

The mutton change is a huge relief. I was starting to feel really dumb, I had so much trouble comparing those over the campfire's light that I was ready to only consume chicken!

Confirming that my flames are now corrected as well. Thank you, FC.
BTW, when you first posted these radical changes, for a day or two, i thought you'd gone a step too far and that the game had moved beyond of my skill range.
Nothing could have been more incorrect on my part. I think I'm in love with this game all over again, possibly more than ever. Plus, as was said by someone else, the early game is now so interesting that i can keep myself from rage quitting.

Hehe... I didn't realize a few of them either. That's what happens when I watch tens of hours of people playing :)hawk wrote:Lol! Looking at the change log, there were quite a few exploity things I wasn't taking advantage of :)
