It's kinda obvious, but the endermen videos are fake.

None of the Enderman videos are real.

Spoiler :

Spoilered for size, pumpkin helmets now stop the endermen from seeing you. -Notch

Note to self, find pumpkin immediately

 

[Angst]

That's such a great idea!

 

[Esckey]

I wonder how the Endermen will interact with the NPC villages. Is the place slowly taken apart or do the NPCs try to put it back together again?

Question is there a way to make a functional draw bridge or something similar?

 

[Newbunkle]

That's awesome about the pumpkins.

Plus, I'm assuming the endermen can only move soft blocks like dirt and sand.

 

[Chieftess]

I noticed that one block has a grassy edge around it, and not a standard dirt block. Does that mean if you kill the enderman and it drops it that you'll get a grassy block? (instant underground grass!)

 

[Rub'Rum]

Yayyy one more item I have to carry in my inventory just in case.

More news about towns, with interesting implications for Towny:

@notch ... since if players can claim land, I guess you don't want borders to be physical blocks, but symbolic/abstract, right?

So players can join towns and claim land.

 

[Maniacal]

I look forward to turning that off

So I found out about the Slenderman Enderman yesterday. This thing will haunt my nightmares forever more.

On a lighter note, I think I'll install the World War II mods come 1.8... who needs blinking when you can DRIVE YOURSELF CLOSER AND HIT THEM WITH YOUR SWORD! Or maybe install Millenaire and have them hacked to bits by the Chevalier. Or the Planes mod and rain death from above. Or...

Towns are getting their own biome

From jeb: Haha my smithy keeps setting the whole village on fire. I need to contain that lava better...

From Notch: Reworking the biome code. Interesting stuff. Will probably allow for rivers.

I want 1.8 NAONAONAO!!!

 

[Esckey]

Is there a due date for 1.8? or is that still far away on the horizon.

 

[croxis]

All I know is it is after PAX, which is the end of this month. I also just figured out how to copy structures from one world to another

Here Jeb posted a picture of food changes:

It appears as if there will be multiple ways to prepare food now.

 

[croxis]

There are now over 160 crafting recipes.

 

[Civ'ed]

nice

 

[Angst]

Wow. Crazy. Can't wait to sort them all out.
