I can keep the server up whenever works for people as long as it isn't the middle of the day on Friday when I need it at work. As many people as want to are welcome to come by, I'd love to start in on some rebuilding work with colored blocks - it remains to be seen whether I'll have any free time at all between now and Episode 3's release but I'll certainly try.

Totally awesome mod that adds DoF and a whole bunch of other things. It's a pretty neat effect.

Interesting...The Minecraft modding community is indeed very powerful.

I've watched some Minecraft videos on YouTube of people actually building computers that actually work....it's spectacular. With makeshift LCD displays and everything. It's truly a thing to behold. Minecraft is a very very VERY creative outlet in more than a few ways.

If Notch makes blocks that change color depending on current, one could actually create a working display. Hook that up to a virtual computer made in-game, and you've got a functioning computer.

I'm working on an extremely large project. It should be done within two weeks.

I've been playing Minecraft a lot recently. My first project was to create a copy of Manannan's house because I happened to spawn on a mountain in the desert.

Very nice!

Funny how the spawn location has an influence on what we decide to start building - my original spawn was in the ocean right in front of a crescent moon-shaped sand inlet that went uphill and inland and immediately split with level areas to the right and left for a bit. Naturally I went al out on building the Isle of the Crown. This week is spring break so I'm off regular work for a few days and may get back to rebuilding the castle using colored blocks.

I found a good way to make a minecart station, so I builded one

Still upgrading it as the cart can go further than I had tracks.

Time for me to make more pics of the game to post here.

edit:
even more pics have been made:

This huge ship costed me over 1 full double chest of wood!!!

Where does that all comes from. Xd

Farming goes well if you have the right tools

many more will come when I made some great stuff.

I really like your house, MI. And FFL, the castle looks great.

MusicallyInspired · March 15, 2011, 01:36:42 AM

Ah glass over the farm.....great idea! I'm going to do that...darn animals keep spawning over it and ruining my crops.

Gilgamesh · March 16, 2011, 11:47:59 AM

don't let any grass grow inside your farm eighter.
You can do it whit a fence, but then skeletons can shoot an arrow at you.
So the glass one is the best.

Currently am I building a castle in my game to see how bigg I need to make it.
Seems the scale I make it is a bit too small at the moment, but it will grow soon.

MusicallyInspired · March 16, 2011, 01:39:52 PM

New greenhouse. No more crop mishaps!

Gilgamesh · March 17, 2011, 01:25:48 PM

the start of my own castle.
the outer wall is on the front side ready and I still need to work on the other sides, but the keep inside the castle will be build first.

the castle will be made out of a 2 blocks thick cubblestone wall surounding the inner complex and the buildings inside will be 1 block thick.
I think this weekend I could have the keep higher than the wall, but it will take some time.
(I don't use any cheats and monsters do spawn)

edit:

latest upgrade to my castle.
I have had 2 creepers jump from the top of the keep and they were still alive, but the were killed whitout any damage to the building.

3 levels has the keep at the moment which are 6 blocks high each. and a floor of 1 block
I still need to think if I should put 1 more level on the building or just start building towers on the side of the keep.
And this is only the main area of the keep, so I still need to make some extra rooms next to this part. Xd

The effect of this video is absolutely mind blowing.

If you need any help for making a automated minecart track where you can call for a car and the car will only be send when you are inside it. you can give me a call.

I have made one whitout those coalpowered minecarts.
I keep looking on how to improve the railsystem that I currently have as I want to give it multiple directions whit as less use of redstone and tracks as possible.

further pictures of my own world will come soon.
