Minecraft (online Lego essentially)

[Tefal]

thats a cool idea!
I found gold!
does not make good pic axe.

gold is equal to wood for tools.


shiny though

Online seems a lot more fun but I've made a HUGE castle with external walls, hollowed out an entire mountain etc on singleplayer, don't really think I have the heart to do so again online

well in the ocuk server I made a comment about it's a shame the mountain blocked the view out of my window, 5 minutes later 7 people turned up and we demolished the mountain in a few minutes then built a huge glass water fall bridge

many hands make light work an all that

 

[Tefal]

there anyway to do a /sethome command in sp?

Freezes in what way?

Main culprits are graphics drivers or dodgey java

 

[garsands]

Don't use the browser download the game & play it that way.

Try the download version, update drivers, update Java. If that doesn't work, find a really old crappy laptop. It'll probably run on that

could be java
or your graphics drivers (know it doesn't like onboard)
download the client, it's not big!
it seems to HATE some HP laptops (noticed at work) not sure why.

 

[mlbtheshow]

Servers down?

 

[Mp4]

lol just doing a random minecraft search on youtbe!!!


(bad language on vid)

wow!

 

[Delvis]

Servers down?

Apparently he does updates every so often

Just try again later

On a side note, still cant get it to run in the downloaded version

Java removed entirely, installed fresh...VGA updated and backdated

Onboard laptop video can do openGL as the display settings states it, unless theres a seting in there.

meh

 

[VeNT]

so do the ones at work
but it still won't work!

What are the onboard graphics? Intel based?

mine is an old 910GML I think...or in that series range.

Works fine online, didn't originally, then I upgraded my GC drivers...After that the online one worked.

But the downloaded one has never worked Gets to the login page...'updates', then conks out saying opengl drivers are bad

 

[Schnoob]

Quite tempted to give this a try, seems quite interesting what people have done.

wow!

Just watched it, I proper Lol'd to myself when he says:

'I dont think you've ever appreciated the size, this thing is *****ING ENOURMOUS!'

Wasn't expecting him to explode with such passion with the way the vid was going up to that point!

 

[Delvis]

ooh ooh!

May have found a fix for my issue!!!

Just need to be at home now!!!
