Minecraft General - /mcg/ - Tainted Edition

1st for play Cerd's serb

I'm so sick of trying to generate a perfect world. So far the best results have been with LB generation with Highlands installed.

Are there any better alternatives?

Find myself wondering what the modding scene is going to be like for 1.9. Combat is so different now. We can push entities again. Boats are actually worth a damn now. All the new End stuff. On top of the massive rewrite most mods are going to have anyway there are concepts that just don't work like they used to.

>>136844421
That's a handy tip, thank you.

Man, I'm hungry for pizza. Is there a mod that adds pizza to minecraft?

>>136849087
>add pizza mod

>>136849428
Thanks.
>>136849475
How extensive is the pizza in the mod? Do you have to hand toss an artisan base and use herbs and spices for the sauce? It isn't the real pizza experience otherwise.

>>136842985
Realist Terrain Generation (RTG)

>>136849428
Are you on /o/?

in greg you have to make doug, and mmm i think it does have 3/4 flavours

I set up my xbox controller for minecraft from bed but my joysticks are far too sensitive. I'll look somewhere and let go of the right stick and the camera will keep panning because my stick isn't perfectly centered.

Anyone else set up PC minecraft to work with a controller have any advice outside of just cutting sensitivity?

>>136852079
Also having trouble with the left stick. If I slightly move it to the right, I go charging off to the right. If I let go, I do the same shit as my camera, I keep moving.

>>136852368
>>136852079
you should increase your deadzone a little more. the sticks on my controller are pretty old and both are loose to the right. thanks mass effect 2.
but a little bit larger of a deadzone in the calibration options and its no problem.

>>136844704
In case you hadn't noticed, modding is in its death throws. Most of the original modders have already quit or are already heading in that direction. The scene is flooded with clones because the creative people moved on and you're left with a lot of mod maintainers rather than creators. Modpacks stopped creating huge excitement in the community years ago because they're so easy to make and we're flooded with identical kitchen sink and HQM packs with different names.

It's going to be a slow death, but we're dying here. 1.9 is just cementing that fact.

>curse launcher updated and started locking shit down
>it's now buggier than ever on top of that

Daily reminder that LexManos develops for the Curse launcher and is helping them lock the community down, just like he does with Forge.

>>136843414
What's the worldgen here?

>>136829689
Not facades - these were never removed, just facades for semitransparent blocks. See, Minecraft 1.8 broke the methods we relied on for hackishly detecting what blocks are to be used as facades - BuildCraft 8.0 has a fix for it, but I'm not sure if I'm ever going to finish that.

>Biomes O' Plenty
>Realistic Terrain Gen
>Alternate Terrain Gen
>Extra Biomes XL
>Highlands

Favorite, least favorite, and why.

Mine are RTG and Highlands. RTG gives massive scale to the game without making it insane. Highlands adds a lot of shitty sameface biomes.

>>136861083
Biomes's O' Plenty is my favorite for vanilla-like worlds, Plus the mod updates very reliably.

Extra Biomes XL adds a whole lot of samey biomes and the textures for the new blocks are not all that great.

Friendly reminder that /mcg/ has a discord server now.

>>136861083
RTG with Streams

BoP is outdated and adds a lot of junk items that you can't use for anything else.

>>136861468
BoP is exactly as you described EBXL.
Plus, BLOAT.

>>136861083
>BoP
Shit
>RTG
Use it, but may drop it next world
>ATG
Tried it, isnt bad, but with dynamic surroundings it's gonna flip between sky colors/fogs really quickly due to how it sets up the biomes.
>EBXL/Highlands
These being the only competitors for BoP, Ive used them extensively.

However after figuring out what I use and what I dont use, Im probably going to drop Biome mods all together. Maybe configure Bop to not be complete shit, or just use RTG.

>>136861083
favorite: Highlands, 1.6.4 was great and the mountains are nice, the biomes are all nice and have decent height/noise without being climbing:the biome like ATG/RWG

>worst: BoP desu

Those cardboard boxes need a better inventory sprite.

Shading is important.

>>136879070
EBXL hardly has devs anymore. I had to help them finish their 1.7 port or it wouldn't happen.

Highlands was updated to 1.8, IIRC, but only on MCF - and it didn't move to 1.8.8/1.8.9.

>>136879201
I'm guessing it's /probably/ MoreEnchants, but if you open inventory and press I over the armor part with enchant, it should bring up a list of all possible enchants that item can get, and what mod they're from.

It's like you guys have no idea what RTG is supposed to do.

It's not supposed to generate it's own biomes, it's supposed to change the way biomes are generated.

Also, every one you listed can be used together under RTG.

It's because of the way it handles biome transitions. It looks for a biome that is a step up or down from the adjacent ones and sometimes it gets caught in a loop.

Some people over on leddit are developing a mod for a really ancient beta version. It looks like they've added some neat stuff, like a season cycle (pic related, it's autumn), and minecarts that work like the old boosters.

Does this chimney look ok? Been fucking around with its design for a while, don't want to waste my bricks in survival.

>>136922649
Does the mod have a name?

>>136842534
I realised why I prefer the beta to the official release.

The official release introduced manmade structures, and later villagers.

T b q h, the best part of beta Minecraft was being alone. Nether fortresses weren't bad, and Endermen weren't terrible, and potions were the coolest fucking thing ever, but the End spoiled everything for me.

It's just the fact that the End portal is stuck in a manmade stronghold, blah blah. The introduction of a sapient man-like civilisation ruined the simplicity/focus on building of Minecraft, and shifted it towards exploration or something, which Minecraft never really seemed to be designed for.

I personally would've completely shifted the direction, maybe actually adding the red/green dragon they promised, expanding on potions, adding new useful ores, but the whole "you're alone in your own sandbox" feeling was utterly destroyed when they added strongholds.

Not to say that I didn't like them. I remember 1.0 coming out and thoroughly enjoying it, and jungles coming out and enjoying that, but the feeling of the game DEFINITELY shifted from 1.7.3 - 1.0.

>>136930081
It disables villager breeding though.

>>136885136
Swap the cobble and the bricks. Put the cobble in the indented part and the bricks as the "pillar".

Also, why the fuck are you using stone bricks, cobble, and STONE? I'd understand the stone if it was part of a cavern, but it's on grass in a plain, so why?

>>136930615
Use upside down stairs to open up the area above the fire more. You need an extra half slab or so to expose the area above the fire; I've never seen a fireplace where the flames span the length of the opening.

I decided to take a screenshot of my slaughterhouses.
The first, on the right, is a traditional trapdoor with lava cow slaughterhouse. Cows fill up the room above, I flip a lever until the place isn't as crowded anymore, and the chest below fills with steak and leather.
The one on the left is a more creative slaughterhouse for chickens. Eggs are loaded up into the dispenser on top, which get flung out repeatedly to hatch in a hole. Lacking any slime, I have two pistons to push a cobblestone block beneath the hole for them to grow to adulthood safely, and another piston to push it out of the way. When that block is out of the way, the chickens all fall into an eternally burning piece of netherrack. The netherrack fences around the side are to prevent any chickens from flying out into the water. Offscreen to the left is an overproductive egg farm, which gave me the idea to have a chicken slaughterhouse to make use of the abundant eggs. I have no idea why I didn't just make a lava slaughterhouse for the chickens like I did the cows.

>>136965608
it makes the UI look like a chaotic, unreadable mess. that's my primary issue with it, my other problem is the fucking pentagons everywhere.
every texture has this needless choice in art direction.

it would be a great texture pack if it wasn't a fucking abortion of bad choices.

>>136965560
Yeah, the 100k RF buffer's obviously not enough.
Here is my plan:
>Farming Station harvests Sugar Cane and Wheat
>Crafter turns Sugar Cane to Sugar
>Wheat + Sugar + Water is Hootch in a Vat
>Pipe to a Combustion Gen
>RF
Potatoes are better but also complicates the setup due to the need to split yield between seeds and fuel. I also thought of a Witch-powered setup but it would probably be end-game shit because it needs Nutrient Distillation for Killer Joes which needs a setup on its own.

I'll also use Tilled Garden Soil for the Wheat (and possibly on all of my farm crops. It's too bad that Garden Soil probably won't help Sugar Cane grow fast.

>>136966019
The armor and weapons look pretty good in Sphax. Other than that yeah, pentagons in a game centered around a cube-world does not look good.

im still figuring that out. usually they reserve 2-3 blocks outward from the inside living area for facades and other designs. the problem ive found with builds like that is the inside isnt very roomy or usable. they take away from function to achieve a good form. useless to me, but hey, what ever works for ya.

>>136976102
ive also found difficulty with planing builds along uneven ground. it throws off the symmetry of my design and then turns me off of even building anything unless i clear out an area. the problem with that is it makes it look less natural. that baroque town i posted is built up a gradual incline, and i wish i could look closer to see how they accommodated for that when putting up those houses.

>>136976102
I have a skeletal build set up right now with an extra block on the outside for designs, but I have no idea what exactly to build for it.

thats how i started doing my outer designs. stairs and slabs are useful, but if you give yourself 2 blocks you can make it more intricate. but then youd have to enlagre the frame. i used to think myself into the ground, get builders block, then quit for a few months. keep a creative world to build wall designs, facades, roof designs, arches, and towers. it really helps and you can always refer back to it.

we have a discord now

https://discord.gg/0uo7G6hWjS98i8Og

officially endorsed by local /mcg/ modder asie™

So here's some rough notes on 1.9 development, compared to 1.8.9:

* Handling models got somewhat saner. ISmartBlockModel is now IBakedModel, ISmartItemModel is done by creating an ItemOverrideList object (you can easily extend it to recreate old functionality).
* A lot more functions in Block now have an IBlockState parameter. Even ones I didn't expect, such as getMaterial(...).
* markBlockForUpdate is now notifyBlockUpdate(..., 3).
* Sounds have been revamped - new SoundEvent(ResourceLocation) instead of just passing a String name, and most playSound methods now additionally require a SoundCategory.
* onItemUse* now return a SUCCESS/PASS/FAIL enum instead of a boolean (very welcome!) and most player-interaction-related methods now take an EnumHand.
* Player armor/held item slots now have an enum instead of magic numbers - which is good, as the order of armor was reversed in some functions but not in others. Gragh.
* MinecraftServer is not supposed to be used as a singleton anymore - although it's still possible. You can get the instance from a WorldServer or INetHandler (via FMLCommonHandler) instead.

>>137018636

* Oh, and instead of getColorFromItemStack/colorMultiplier we have IBlockColor/IItemColor and BlockColors/ItemColors registries in the Minecraft client class. No idea why.

Sounds like you need some mods senpai.

>>137041049
Looks really chill. I should get into modded more if only for the wider variety of blocks, but this structure is specifically for a vanilla server.

>>137041961
Well then, enjoy your grainy not-minimalistic-or-modern-at-all blocks. Fucking vanillafags

Can you show us a close up of that stained glass wall thing?

That world is long gone to corruption. This is the closest shot of it left.

What was the name of that one scafolding mod?

You could put warning tape up and I believe it gave you a boost to running speed on them.

The scafolding was black, IIRC.

Thanks, never knew the limit was 750.
>>137040726
I make my own texture back just fixing up some blocks. I took the cracked bricks and made a whole new brick texture. I did that with the stone materials, and then made the stained clay accurate with their colors, and make it look more like stucco. Its not hard to edit the existing blocks to what you want, its just time consuming.

>>137044891
Catwalks?

>>137040726
Block of coal
Black wool
Obsidian (probably not "clean" enough for you though)

Why the fuck won't this Greatwood sapling grow? I've got the orientation right, I grew the other three in the pic, but this one just won't fucking grow. I'm running out of ideas here.

I love building roads. There's something nice about building things for everyone to use, even if it's only ever you on them.

This is surprising how?

>>137054856
Anyone?

>>137067773
Maybe there are too many leaves above it, there needs to be room for it to grow.

>>137067773
don't they need four saplings in a square to grow?
