Cute? A malevolent, scheming little walking pile of TNT is hiding inside that seemingly adorable, minecart-riding exterior.

I JUST KNOW IT.

Oh great now you gave me a new idea behind this. How scary would it be though of the idea of sending a Creeoer in a cart being sent off to someone's house and then kaboom! :S

So in the release notes for 12w25a, Mojang stated that they're still working on bug fixes so they can release the official 1.3 patch, something a lot of people have taken as confirmation that 1.3 is coming soon. I'm inclined to agree, and I really hope it is actually the case.

Something you should be aware of..

I was just trying out 1.3 on a new map and I spawned walking-distance away from a desert pyramid which had 3 diamonds in it. So now I have a diamond pickaxe and It's only been like 5 minutes. P:

Also I found a testificate who gave an emerald when he was given a written book. I didn't know they had an appreciation for literature.

So Eps and I were building a mall on my server when...





We saw the face of Squidward/Testificate. D;

Pirates anyone?






Just in case that doesn't work:

yes very good

Alright, for those who didn't watch ALL of the Yogscast Crown Conquest perspectives, here's a nice little montage:

◕‿◕
This skin was a pain in the butt to make


EDIT: And that's not all. I've also been working on mashing together a few texture packs to create this one...

Spoiler:

I like that enderdragon picture.

Out of curiosity, is the last picture of the second Survival Games map?

Thanks, it took a while to get that screenshot. The bugger wouldn't fly straight. :V

And yes, it is. The 2nd one is alsoTeam Obsidiox's 2fort map.

Was fooling around with Mine-imator.
This happened.

EDIT: @Plague: Awesome job on that! I've been meaning to try out Mine-imator for a while now. How long did it take you to make that?

So I've been working on a CTM (Complete the Monument) map for a couple weeks, and I'm just now deciding to show a few things to you guys. Please know that these are really rough pictures from my Indev world, the finished product will be much more organized and much less ugly.

First, a shot of a good portion of my islands, all organized in no particular way.



Second, me standing in front of one of the first areas you'll go through in the map.



Third, looking down into one of the earlier dungeons you'll have to conquer, named "The Pit".



As I didn't provide much, I don't expect any detailed opinions right now; those can wait until I show you "Armpit of the World" and "Everdark Atlas". Just letting you know that this project is a thing and I'm making progress on it very quickly.

I've recently been building this giant oil platform in Tekkit. the oil spout literally goes up at least 35 blocks into the air. Anyways, I was taking ideas from Sjin's let's build Sjindustry, and the first thing I did was make a heli pad. Well of course, a heli pad needs a helicopter, so I built this one:
The TE part stands for Talvox Enterprises.
Anyways, I'll get back to you guys as the oil platform progresses further.

Friends, allow me to show off something I just created: the underwater Regen-Skellie spawner.





Essentially what I've done is create a custom spawner that applies the regen potion to skeletons that spawn. I've also added some upwards momentum to them as they spawn, meaning I can have this spawner at the bottom of a lake and have the skellies shoot up to the top.

Oh, did I mention that I also made them have a very high spawn rate? They'll pop up one at a time, but that's one every couple of seconds. >:3

This is something I'm going to implement into my upcoming CTM map, Dreadsky Isles. Eventually I'll post a thread for it here, but seeing as I don't have enough material to show off yet, I'll hold off for a bit.

Er, forgive me for asking this, but does anyone have a server I can join? Singleplayer has gotten rather boring for me, and I've been aching to play multiplayer, but all of the servers that I added seem to be dead.

I can only play on weekends and holidays, since that's when I have a small amount of free time.

Right, another update on my oil platform.

Here's the main platform area completed. Building the support towers in each of the corners was a pain.


And then, as we start building around the spout, we have this.


Second layer.


Third and final layer.


That area was done, so I decided to add a little decoration to the top.


I forgot about Tekkit being able to do all sorts of crazy aesthetics, so I changed the wooden part to iron.


And then, once I had that done, I went below the main platform to add some aesthetics. I originally was going to do wooden supports but changed my mind.


Final supports.


Right, that update was fairly long. (At least picture-wise.)

@Puk, I can't really recommend any good multiplayer servers, 'cause I don't think Plague or Cam have their servers up at the moment, at least I haven't played on either in a while. If you haven't already, I suggest you try one of Vechs' maps, specifically one from his Super Hostile series. If you do decide to try it, Spellbound Caves or Infernal Sky II (not a sequel, despite the name) are both good places to start. If you find either of them too hard, Sunburn Islands is another good beginning one. Legendary, Nightmare Realm, and Waking Up are all much more difficult than the others, so I suggest you start by staying away from them. Hopefully you'll have fun if you decide to try them. ^_^

EDIT: Linkeh: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/191908-ctmcollection-vechs-super-hostile-series/

Thank you Drago. I'll try them out when I have time to.

Sure thing, Puk, hope you die in a fire enjoy!

Alright, I've gotten a BIG chunk of my map done in the previous two days, more specifically, an entire area; Bleakshale Falls. I lay the base in MCedit two nights ago, back then it just looked like a few ugly ellipses. I shaped it for a little while until it was acceptable, then it looked like this:



I added trees, a house, and a few other do-dads, before moving onto the dungeon last night. I've still got a few minor adjustments to make, but here's what it looks like in it's current state.





Getting the water level at the base to be correct was a lot harder than I thought it was going to be, even witht he help of MCedit. >_< Chances are I'll add some vines around the sides, some glowstone around the sides, and I might even see about changing the biome to make the pine trees look a bit more fitting. Anyways, comments and feedback are appreciated, I'm getting close to the target I'd like to reach before making a thread for this.

I managed to get the Gulliver Mod working.


BOW TO ME, MORTALS

EDIT: Being a little person is fun too. You can sit on any mob!

(This even includes other players!)

Mine-imator test.


EDIT: Me and plague may or may not be working together to make a Mine-imator video.

Heheh, I'd love to do an animation collaboration. ;D

Hey guys!

Just a few minutes ago, I posted a thread for my CTM map that I mentioned a few pages back.

If any of you have MCforums accounts, I'd really appreciate it if you looked at it and replied. Even if you don't browse the MCforums often, just looking at it and providing feedback here would be appreciated.
