    Vic can you clear my server-side character file please

    there seems to be a problem with it where I lose the ability to pick up any items off the ground or to die from fall damage but I'm not lagging in the slightest

    i also experience massive massive chop lag which didn't start happening until the first occurrence of that "i can't die or pick shit up" bug

    i'm 90% sure it's tied to my server-side character file so I put everything I had into chests, it's safe to wipe me so I have a fresh start next time I connect

    i know it's not clientside because is spent half an hour on bill's to test it and everything ran smooth

    okay seriously how do you use the texture installer built into the client

    i only get to play this like once a week now, so pretty much every time i play there's an update

    which means haha gotta reinstall your texture pack, asshole

    Probably this: http://getsatisfaction.com/mojang/topics/if_armor_is_worn_and_you_die_it_causes_player_corruption. Sounds pretty close to what you were experiencing.

    Edit: Although I just tried to reproduce it and had no corruption issues, so it may be somewhat random.

    Simply take the texture pack, zip it up if it isnt already, then put the zip file into the texturepacks folder. then when you open minecraft and press the texture packs button it should show you the default texture pack and all others you have put in the folder.

    Edit: And I am all for bills idea of keeping the server peaceful for now, since the underdark satiates my monster killing needs.

    So one of my friends gave this to me as an early Christmas present. When I fail out of school and end up as a hobo on the streets, I'm blaming him.

    I don't think there is any other game where I could completely lose my house and everything I've done so far and still keep playing. Three times.

    How do people feel about Stargate replacing warps? We can adjust permissions so anyone can make one (provided they gather the obsidian themselves), and only mods/admins can destroy them. Or leave it as only mods/admins can actually activate them (to avoid clutter, or portals over lava), but beyond that there would be no limitation on how many a person could make (with their obsidian). Or maybe builders can both build and destroy them, we don't really have a griefing problem and that would be nice for people to have so they don't bother mods much. I need input here!

    I like this.

    I'm also not nearly as concerned about the lighting bug as I once was. CPU use is still higher than I would like, but I don't think that's a major issue anymore. I'm working on tuning the garbage collector to fix the random hangs (I'm nearly certain those are GC related). The CPU use should go down when Notch optimizes his algorithm; that's really just a matter of time (hopefully this week?!).

    Gonna crosspost this stuff:

    So, Notch's bug reporting system.

    Naturally, it's already being inundated with stupid shit like "WHEN I CLICK QUIT THE GAME CLOSES", but I thought I'd mention it here because it's been almost a month since Notch dropped that Halloween patch with the lighting bugs on us, and he hasn't bothered fixing it yet in lieu of doing, well, just about anything else.

    I'm wondering if we can use this to bring it to his attention.

    http://getsatisfaction.com/mojang/topics/lighting_bug_near_the_bottom_of_maps_is_causing_major_problems

    It may not be as big an issue on hiart's server, but we've lost a ton of work because of it on mine because of how low to the bottom of the map we built.

    I mean, Notch has already commented on needing to entirely re-write the lighting code. He knows it's a serious problem.

    Yeah, I wish he would prioritize that though :(. It would be nice to have resource use back to pre-Halloween levels.

    This will probably help him prioritize what needs to be fixed.
    I mean, he knows of issues sure.. but which ones should he work on first?

    Yeah, but then we've been waiting almost a month since he identified it as a serious problem, and in that time instead of addressing it he's piling more broken stuff ontop.

    I understand it's alpha, but the point of having this whole bug reporting system is to identify priorities, like Skettios said. The more people we can get onboard, the better.

    Bill: My settings are already optimized, I did that weeks ago. The reason you don't seem to be suffering from the lighting bug is simply because you've engineered your map to fill the problem areas close to the bottom of the world in. Wouldn't help us, unfortunately. :\

    It sounds like he's talking about Recettear: an item shop's tale. It's on steam and was in one of the indie packs the other day and apparently it's quite good.

    Last time it was on sale I bought DogFighter, and I already owned flotilla from an earlier sale, so I decided to pass on the air pack. I'm hearing good things about it though.
