That is a hell of a bridge connecting the Imperium, Atomicstan, and should anyone dare settle there, the continent still waiting for Synergy, to the rest of the world.

It's about 800 blocks long, no railings atm but it's 5 wide, very well lit and took hours to build, partly due to the material crafting time.

I can see Eclectovia in progress. Good.

Also, I have a mailbox in case anyone wants to drop by and leave some mail. I think it would be great if everyone had one.

[edit] A creeper blew up on me at spawn, and left a hole I can't fix because it's a protected area.

I will fix that when I get on, Stu. :)
I've been thinking about making a couple of changes to the gamerules for those suffereing from bad lag. Losing your stuff by a creeper explosion that you couldn't avoid because of lag, is not fun at all.
Now there's nothing I can do to make the lag go away, but I can change a couple of gamerules. One of them allows you to keep your inventory when you die, this should help ease the pain a bit. However, this gamerule applies to all players, including those that don't suffer from lag. So I think we should increase the difficulty to hard as well.

Let me know what you think and if you'd like it at all. :)

Well, if you prefer loosing your stuff due to lag, fine by me. :)
I'm just offering an option here to those that have bad lag and can't enjoy the server as much. But we need to agree on it before I even enable it.

Stojke must be doing something we're not, or knows something we don't. He has an insane amount of gold blocks and stuff. He also claims something about being an ultra diamond miner or something when I have only found 6 diamonds while mining once.

Or he just did a lot of farming, traded that for gold at the farmer, and then went over to the currency converter and changed that into emeralds.

Whichever way he's doing it, its apeshit the amount of goodies he has.
At least he shares his rares:) Thanks for the help Stojke!

I have spent damn near 200 levels on enchantments and i still haven't gotten a fortune pickaxe. I keep getting eff. and unbreaking - which are great because the pics last FOREVER. But I wanna multiply my diamond income! Maybe i'll just start enchanting books. :hammer:

Posted 10 years ago2013-08-27 11:49:41 UTC Post #315253
Did you know you can combine two books together? Two books of Fortune I combined will get you a Fortune II book. Two books of Fortune II equals Fortune III. :)
The Mad Carrot The Mad CarrotMad Carrot
Posted 10 years ago2013-08-27 11:59:19 UTC Post #315254
What about a fortune I and Fortune II?

That's good to know.

My next project (after my rail way) is my own crafting table. The journey to Rimrooks enchanting table is getting tedious.
Tetsu0 Tetsu0Positive Chaos
Posted 10 years ago2013-08-27 12:12:34 UTC Post #315255
No that won't work, you'll need two books with the same enchantment in order to get the next tier.

Also, thank you for your donation! :D

Diamonds are dug out by strip mining. No tricks there.
Me and Nina only explore the deepest caves Y12 ~ Y1.

As well for emeralds, shroom gremlin.

no, in fact, shrooms are pretty useless unless you want the floor to look like burlap carpet or something lame like that.

Tetsuo, I think you get better enchantments from enchanting tools/weapons directly than from enchanting books. Books only get one enchantment at a time even if you spend all your levels, while tools/weapons can get multiple enchantments, of about the same level as the book.

Say, if you enchant a book you can get Unbreaking III but if you enchant a tool directly you can get Unbreaking III + Efficiency III + Fortune III.

And yeah, I have gotten an Unb III + Eff III + Fortune III diamond pickaxe in SP. It is probably my most valued possession :P
Posted 10 years ago2013-08-27 19:37:58 UTC Post #315276
Yeah well i'm just saying if i have a sick pickaxe already, i'll just enchant books until i get the one i want, combine it to max, and apply it to the pick.

Anvil costs will be amazingly high, but that's fine.
Tetsu0 Tetsu0Positive Chaos
Posted 10 years ago2013-08-27 19:38:21 UTC Post #315277
At least 10 times i got Fortune 3 / Unbreaking 3 / Efficiency 4.
Enchant directly at level 30.

You have an skeleton spawner made into an mob farm in an old mine me and Nina used.
Stojke StojkeUnreal
Posted 10 years ago2013-08-27 20:33:40 UTC Post #315278
Actually, all you have to do is find a large cave and off you go.. Zombies, creepers, skelletons, poison spider spawners. I found a cave near my home and I really wanted to search for diamonds and minecarts with chests, but found a shitload of zombies and skeletons instead. With such a large amount of enemies you need 10-15 minutes of exploring to reach lvl 30.
And killing them all of course.
It's insane to try to kill them all.
....even saw two poison spider spawners next to each other.
Anyway, silk touch, smite, and that kill-a-spider-with-one-hit-enchant are the best.
Posted 10 years ago2013-08-28 01:13:17 UTC Post #315280
im still on the lookout for a monster spawner.

I'm in the process of upping my chicken production so i can have a steady stream of feathers for arrows.
I'm getting sick of the short-range stuff - it seems the skele-archers are spawning moreso than any other mob!!
Tetsu0 Tetsu0Positive Chaos
Posted 10 years ago2013-08-28 01:18:07 UTC Post #315281
The problem with making arrows is that you need flint, and flint is limited. Once you use up all the gravel (of which there doesn't seem to be a lot in this map), you can't make any more arrows.
Posted 10 years ago2013-08-28 02:18:58 UTC Post #315283
You can still get them from skeletons, of course. THEY'LL NEVER STOP COMING

I... cannot recall if we found a spawner. I THINK we did, can't remember what was in it though.
Jessie JessieTrans Rights <3
Posted 10 years ago2013-08-28 04:56:18 UTC Post #315284
Well, if you run out of gravel find some more somewhere else. Use a showel or a pickaxe with fortune 3, that way you always get flint instead of gravel. Just sayin'.
Or find a skeleton spawner, and make what Stojan made - expirience farm, because skeletons are always coming. You get arrows, bows and expirience.
Posted 10 years ago2013-08-28 08:15:40 UTC Post #315286
Just explore more. You cant dig where there are no diamonds at and expect them.
Diamonds are located only under layer 12. And at start I've been strip mining at level 8. But now i dont any more since its easier to find them in caves.

Here are some screen shots (i use max render distance and effects) :

So you're telling me that you find more diamonds exploring low-level caves than you do strip-mining? I've been finding a new cave almost every day under Viagoria.
My Progress:
No Screenshots because I'm At work, BUT

-Added Wheat and Carrot Farm
-Thanks to Stu's help, I have a 4x8 cobblestone generator (Which has proved useless since i started strip mining :-P but it looks cool and works well)
-Improved my Chicken farm by use of hoppers; will expand once chicken production improves.
-Finished one-way Rail bridge from Rimrook's to North Viagoria (Urby's old settlement)
To-Do:
-Dismantle unsightly single-block rail bridge, remove scaffolding.
-Place the rest of the Rails for the one-way bridge
-Make way-station at Urby's place, continue rail south to my settlement.
-Widen the "Great Continental Road" bridge from Viagoria to Rimoria (For ease of Horse Travel)
-Add Stairs down to the water every now and again for ease-of-access in-case you fall off the bridge with a horse.
-Finish Tree-House

Yeah, since you dont degrade your tools as much.

Also, the railway to New World is complete. But its not for use until Minecraft Version 1.7 . Direct order to block the railway from Atom.

The walls are made from coal blocks, and I really like those chests in minecarts, so I made them. Also, there is a enchanting table on the top of my home. Hell yeah.

Also.. Nina, it seems that your roof is leaking :-P

Does anyone know if there are mooshrooms on the mushroom island?
I'd like to farm a few for unlimited stews
Tetsu0 Tetsu0Positive Chaos
Posted 10 years ago2013-08-28 18:55:50 UTC Post #315314
Good shit :o

I made the New World preparation center 1. All that is left is the preparation center 2.

1 Contains:
Storage area / Workshop / Sleeping quarers
2 Contains:
Incinerator - trash section / Enchantment table / Beacon (toughest one)

There are. But you get 1 stew per 1 slot item. So its kinda useless.
Get some mushroom dirt from me and make your own moshroom farm :D
Shroom gremlin will be most pleased with that.
