I recently joined a new Minecraft Tekkit Server. This video is a tour of what I have built so far.

We built a movie theater, complete with a concession area, on the server using a computer and a monitor array. The theater plays an ascii-animated Star Wars movie.

Rivers!: http://imgur.com/6MeBH

If they add rivers it would be awesome, I just wonder how they are gonna do it. Fluid math is really cpu intensive, even with big blocks like minecraft water blocks it would still take a lot of cpu power to simulate (for example) a dam breach.

You're really late to the party bro.

Do you mean rivers that flow downhill or rivers between biomes?

I think he means actual flowing rivers with currents, given that there are already "still" rivers in the game in certain biomes.

Just alerting everyone that modding API and official mod support has been delayed.

1.4 is tomorrow, the 25th. Who is pumped?

 

[Maniacal]

Is it adding more shapes and stuff to build with? Otherwise I couldn't care less.

 

[Bowsling]

Actually, yeah it is. It looks pretty amazing. Too bad I'll be busy tomorrow.

 

[Maniacal]

I am unable to find any mention of 1.4 adding in new shapes and stuff to expand what you can build.

 

[KaiserElectric]

I seem to recall that they are adding stone fences and differently shaped stairs.

 

[Maniacal]

Whoopdydoo.

 

[sophie]

Yeah, they're adding corner stairs so that roofs don't look so craptastic anymore. As opposed to, you know, actually adding roofs.

 

[KaiserElectric]

Outside of aesthetics, what purpose would a roof block serve? There isn't anything you can do with it that can't be done with regular blocks.

The whole point of minecraft IS aesthetics. And it would be nice to be able to create roofs that don't look like total crap.

That's funny. I have no problem creating roofs that don't look like total crap.
