I'm with gloves man >=)

@ Clay Add me too please! :)

Count me in.
If you don't get a server, I get a 24/7 dedicated one in late April.

Add me to the list too. Although, I'll sadly have to go with the majority with not being able to run the server, my computer isn't good enough to do that.

OK, we're starting the city. Whaaaale's server. Remember, our goal is to build a giant city, beautiful and inspiring, not survival. If you wish to do survival, you can play on SP, or perhaps on a time when Whaaaale's server is currently on the LBPC map.

I took a picture of the only room I have access to at the moment, (Remember it's a work in progress, so that back wall will be removed.)

EDIT: And just like that, PROGRESS!:

That was really hard and annoying to make without any sort of flying mod :c

Ok, so Ive been trying to buy minecraft for a while now with a prepaid visa card from walmart. However, everytime I try to buy it, it says:
"Transaction error
An error occured and your purchase was not completed"

WTF? Its annoying. So I tried setting up a paypal account and using that too, but I get a different error message! Whats going on? I just want to freaking play minecraft!

Try buying at night, not as much traffic during that time. I think I got that error code when I first tried buying Minecraft, but there's a chance I'm wrong. If worse comes to worse, ask someone other than me.

Wait a minute
Did we start a new server because Im in it, and its dead-empty. :(

:SH:

Ok I figured out the problem; this card cant buy items from Sweden. So now what? Is there some way to authorize a foreign transaction?(THAT was fun to say :p just like TV)

OKAY GUYS! ITS DOOOONE! (well, the first part and first quest that is...) So yeah!

First, go here: http://www.mediafire.com/?66me7c6xc08ic80

Next, make a folder in your .minecraft/saves folder. Name it whatever. (The name will be what you see it as in the world select screen.)

Now, put all the files in the zip file into that folder.

Now, in the .minecraft/saves/whatyounamedit folder, make a folder called:

region

In that folder, put the files that start with r.blahblah Like that. Now, if you hop onto minecraft and start that level you should spawn somewhat near a large house with a dock. If you aren't on that dock, go over to it, read the rules and backstory, and then gooooo!

Right now I won't give you guys the txt files with the story stuff in it, so when asked, just read the things in the below spoiler tags:

Spoiler - Note_1

If you are reading this, it is most likely you are my nephew, and that I am dead.

I have lived in this mansion for only several months, and in this time I have
come to learn of the twisted ways, the people who live in the surrounding area, follow.

Cultists. All of them. Crazy, deranged, and sadistic cultists. I've seen things I'll never forget: children being thrown into this pit, left to perish, and people,
killing themselves in a crowd for no one to notice, then, for that same body to be dragged to a nearby stand were... well, I can tell you I won't be eating THEIR
pies.

And why do they do this? For 'him'. A god they all call Draymonte. From what I have gathered, he is supposedly the god of death, disease, and darkness.

Not a very lovely combination, yet they still love him... not that it's a suprise, with their state of mind.

For these people, they see death as a luxury, a one way trip to meet the man himself.

Yet, some are afraid of it. Most of the older people stick to worshipping and... sacrifices, saving their own lives in place of others.

I'm so sorry. I sent that invitation to you just before I learned of all this. I sent a second letter but I fear you have already left.

Now that you're here, you cannot leave, not without stopping all this. I know that it is a great burden, but it is one only you have a chance
of carrying.

I'm much too old too frail, and the people, they've been watching me, I know they'll come for me soon.

Now, this could be the madness corrupting me, but I believe if you could learn more about this... pseudo-god, maybe you could learn how to stop this madness.

Maybe you could show these people that there is no Draymonte... something, anything to stop these pointless murders.

If you exit the mansion from the back door, follow the old road to the main city, from there you can reach the shrine of Draymonte. Look around there, search for
something that could aid you in deterring this madness.

Sincerely, the late,

Dr. Geoffrey Fern

P.S. If you're reading this, and you aren't my nephew... well, then... poo.

Spoiler - Note_2

He who defies the almighty Draymonte

Shall be put to rest at the hands of his darkness.

Let their remains be placed as a lesson for all.

Draymonte is always watching.

Spoiler - Journal_1

Dr. Ferns Journal, 4/04/1904

I've decided that now I'll be living on my own, that I should start a journal...

Today I moved into this old mansion. It's quite cozy, but it gives off a really... oh I don't know... a evil god kind of sense? It's probably not though,
I bet it's actually just the Frebreeze I just turned on. Those things always give me the chills.

Dr. Ferns Journal, 8/04/1904

Today I went down to the nearby village, Culthaven, I think it's called. Looks nice, but the people... oh boy. Seems like they're all a bunch of loony cultists.
I probably should've listened to that brochure, now that I think of it. Oh well, let bygones be bygones.

Also, while I was down there I had the most delicious pie, which I got from a lovely fellow with an even lovelier unibrow. He even gave it to me for half
the price, just because he liked me. Said he'd love to have me for dinner one night. Think I may take him up on that offer!

Dr. Ferns Journal, 15/04/1904

I decided to visit my neighbor today, Mr. Cthulu was his name. He lives on a small island south of the mansion, in a tiny little shack. Lovely man though. We
had tea and talked all about our lives. I feel lucky to know this man, as apparently he was some idol back in the day, (Maybe he was a singer!),
he said he was loved by hundreds of people, but then he got old and moved out here to take a rest from it all. He reminds me of myself, really.

Dr. Ferns Journal, 16/04/1904

Mr. Cuddles died today. :C

Dr. Ferns Journal, 23/04/1904

Today I realized what a mistake I made when I invited my nephew to this mansion. Those crazy cultists all give me nasty looks, and I feel they are plotting to
kill me. I'm going to write a very serious note to fill my nephew in on the plot. Maybe he'll turn out to be a great protagonist like his father.

Durmnys Journal, 42/??/profit

Durmny no no who journal this is but is pretty. Durmny is right stuff in here cause is funny and make Durmny laff. The others follow old man into basement and
now Durmny hear screaming and bonking. FUUUNNY. Durmny go now cause its tuesday and dat means we get to play sacrifice! yeeeey. Durmny hopes he gets chosed dis
time.

Spoiler - Dialogue_1

Strange Fellow:

'Ello there stranger... hm... *sniff sniff*... you smell like the type of person who'd love themselves an adventure. WELL, it just so happens I have one
for you! Oh yes, I've been saving this secret for 13 years, waiting to tell it to someone who smells like you.

Now, about this secret. I just happen to know that there is an ancient tomb nearby. Yes, a tomb of the ancient god known as the God of Obstacle Courses.

Yes... and when his tomb was made, they just so happened to make most of it his favourite thing! Now, in my old age I've come to forget of were you could access
this tomb... yes... maybe you could look around for a sign that blatantly tells you it's location... mhm...

Now, take the key (button) from the chest beside me, as you will probably need it to enter the tomb... wherever it may be... mhm..

19 Lapis, I am winnar

Okay after both me and Clay played it I've realized there are many bugs, nothing too bad though. Now, at the end of the tomb (you'll realize its the end when you get there.) theres a switch that SHOULD open the door, but it doesn't. Now, theres another bug where the button you are given is infinite, just use a button against the final door to open it.

And ye, post your Lapiz Lazuli count if you want, it's kind of a pointless minigame :P

Btw, whoever spots the hidden reference in Journal_1 gets major Cog Points.

I noticed that the eggs in the chest at the mansion also have the unlimited thing with them, too, but then it goes away after a few throws. Apart from that, I got 16 lapis and I must say that I can't wait until this is done.

MEANWHILE ON THE LBPC SERVER:

Yes that's clay in the middle of the picture after testing if Suicide Point worked, it did.

Ya, was only one playing but then it just bugged out, hope I didn't lose any progress. :cry:

Can I help in with the city?
I offered to help before, but got ignored ._.

Hmm I can help if you guys want it.

Also speaking of adventure maps I'm making one too cog :P

Probably won't be finished for a while though..here is a nice preview of some of the stuff I have done on it.

http://i55.tinypic.com/2akfm1x.jpg

Guys, may I ask what your computer specs are and how well Minecraft runs for you?

I'm not sure if you guys had this discussion already earlier in the thread, but I'm quite curious.

Guys? Is the server I.P. the same as the I.P. I got a few months ago? Or did the server change?

:SH:

I'll just leave this here.
Link

Anyone who has the IP can help :)
*swan dives out of thread*

Ok, so apparently the visa card I got at walmart cant buy anything from Sweden. So is there any way I can get this to work?!

Well, it doesn't take much because I only run with a Radeon HD 4680 and it's going ok (25-30 fps --- goes up to 50-something when not much on screen).

I've got a computer with 2GB of RAM and I typically get 20-30 fps, with the 50's in that range if there isn't much going on, but I have occasional lag spikes that seem to happen only in times of danger.

I believe it's the same IP, different world though. We've started on a clean plate.

Did I give you the IP already? I believe I did I just have bad memory, and as Clay stated yes you can as long as there is communication and stoof.

Server is up btw.

Can I get the IP please? :)

Thanks so much.

Yey, I got a fly mod working :D This'll make making my adventure map so much easier.

As for progression, I'm actually working on the final area (Which can only be accessed by using gold blocks to get over several walls, and you collect these gold blocks from
quests.) and this areas going to be another tomb like thing but with a creepier look and much harder obstacles :D

So, i just made a map of the city (not build yet) and around it
http://i52.tinypic.com/s4s5xu.png

Is anyone else excited as I am for the update with Stats and Achievements?

also is there an date cinfirmed to Beta 1.4?

Notch said they plan on releasing it sometime this week.

I think they are different on ways they act in the game.
Nice Screenshots Cog

In Minecraft, Wolves (or wolfies) are the hostile form of Wolves/Dogs. They don't obey or like you.
Dog is a friendly form of Wolves/Dogs. They like you and obey you.
