Merry Christmas from my private game! Can you spot all the mods I'm using for this build?

Support / Forum profile picture mismatch
« on: 6 Nov 2015, 21:36:51 »
As you can see below, there's a mismatch between my Minecraft skin and the skin that shows up in my profile. It's the generic Steve skin, not mine. Now, I did recently update my skin, could it be an issue downloading it from the Minecraft server? I've checked in game and my updated skin is being used there.

Pictures / WIP: Battleships Island
« on: 30 Oct 2015, 17:03:09 »
This is a project that I've been working on ever since I heard that we build our own event space, I decided to build a boat racing track. (Power to the Players - Official Events!)

I'm calling it Battleships Island, and I plan to add several redstone actuated obstacles and the like to make the race more interesting to the participants. No PVP, but I hope they can at least attack each other's boats.  3:)

Here's my work in progress:

We're on 500 Bertrand Dr. just East of the Town Spawn.

Noobstown General / Latest update to my Wilds Domain!
« on: 9 Jun 2015, 04:48:35 »
I've just finished building an underwater temple, though I still need to furnish it. But it's beautiful looking in Chroma Hills 1.8 texture pack. It's part of my underwater kingdom that I'm building NW of the Wild Spawn.









It abuts my underwater park, also a work in progress.







Once everything is done, I'll move my /visit location to the park.

Noobstown General / New Public Fishing Dock!
« on: 9 Apr 2015, 20:08:54 »
I just built a new Public Fishing Dock out in the Wilderness! Stop on by and drop your line in the river and try your luck. Just watch out for the skeletons, you're in range from a couple of spots on the dock. It's located at -953, 66, -1131 NW of the wilderness spawn, or you can /visit JohnReiher and leave by the backdoor near the spawn and follow the path. Just remember to close the door behind you.

In the jungle biome NW of the Wilderness start, I've set up a Wayfarers' Refuge.



It's a treehouse that anyone should be able to use when they are traipsing around the Wilderness near my property. There's some food, coal and sticks for torches, as well as some planks and bit of cobble.



Sadly I haven't figured out how to make the crafting bench public, so you'll have to use your personal 2x2 crafting area to make torches and sticks.



So if you're in the neighborhood and it's getting dark, make it to my place and take shelter there!

Suggestions & Ideas / Geocaching in Minecraft
« on: 2 Apr 2015, 19:53:59 »

I saw this video and it's something we can do within Noobstown. It doesn't require any special mods, just an understanding on how to find your coordinates and some cooperation with the land owners in the Wilderness.

The way I see it, is that we would have a "geocache office" where Wilderness property owners can place a geocache on their property such that it would be accessible to anyone wandering the wilderness areas. Each participant would add an entry to a Geocache book with their X, Y, and Z coords of a geocache at the G-Office, perhaps at the Wilderness Tutorial site. Those who want to seek out these caches, would pick one and head out into the wilderness. Yes, you can make use of the /visit feature to take a shortcut, but real cachers walk the whole way.

Property owners would be encouraged to provide shelters for travelers as they trek through the wilderness, in search of the caches. When you find the cache, you can sign it, and you are encouraged to leave a trinket of some sort in the cache and take a trinket someone else had previously left there.

What do you think of that sirs?

Suggestions & Ideas / Wild Chunks: Burn baby, burn!
« on: 13 Dec 2014, 00:26:22 »
I'm trying to clear my Wilds plots of all overhanging trees. Of course I chose the Jungle biome so I have these freak'n tall trees with wide canopies. I'd love to set fire to the overhanging canopy and let it burn back to the property line. Would it be possible to add a fire toggle for Wild Chunks?

Support / Bought a pet and didn't get my Cow
« on: 21 Oct 2014, 21:36:44 »
I opened the /petshop menu and bought a cow, but I didn't know at that time pets were disabled. Can I get a refund on my 20,000 noobs?

Market Place / JohnReiher's Vegetable Stand is open
« on: 29 Aug 2014, 04:12:32 »
Don't have a lot in it right now, just cocoa beans, sugar cane and pumpkins. Stop on by and pick some up. Just use the /visit JohnReiher command!

I hope to expand my market, but I'm not one of those industrial farmers, just a small farmer!

Suggestions & Ideas / Twilight Forest Mod
« on: 21 Aug 2014, 18:26:05 »
Another mod I'd love to see on the server is the Twilight Forest Mod. Another place to visit, quest, and find new things to fight, craft, and mine.

Suggestions & Ideas / Farming and Crop mods
« on: 19 Aug 2014, 22:04:21 »
I know that for most folks, vanilla Minecraft is just fine. However, I'd love to be able to expand the number and types of crops and increase the kinds of foods that can be crafted for sale.

Of all the mods I've seen, Pam's HarvestCraft is one of the better ones out there.
http://www.curse.com/mc-mods/minecraft/221857-pams-harvestcraft

Is there any chance of adding this to our servers, at least to the Towny server?

Support / My livestock disappeared
« on: 18 Aug 2014, 23:38:05 »
Just this week, all of my sheep and chickens vanished from my chunks in the Wilds. And no, they didn't run away, as I have tall walls set up to keep them in. Were the Wilds reset for mobs?

Noobstown General / Creating Golems
« on: 7 Jul 2014, 21:24:46 »
I tried to create an Iron Golem today and I wasn't able to build one. I had all the ingredients, Iron blocks and a Pumpkin, but I couldn't build one in my place in the Wilds.

Are crafting Golems not turned on for players in the current build?

Support / Problems connecting to Planet Minecraft to vote
« on: 1 Jul 2014, 15:29:38 »
For the past couple of days I've been getting a timeout message trying to connect to the Planet Minecraft site to vote.

http://www.planetminecraft.com/server/noobstown-rpg-towns-economy-skills-quests-369151/vote

I can connect to the Planetminecraft.com home page and the servers page, but after that, it times out. Is this happening to anyone else or is just me and my connection?

https://mojang.com/2014/06/lets-talk-server-monetisation/

So it breaks down as such:

What You CAN do
Sell ranks with non game changing elements (e.g. /hat, /me, /nick), Charge players to be able to play on the server, Accept donations that don't get rewards

What You CAN'T do
Sell ranks with pay to win perks (e.g. /mc, /enderchest, /disguise), Sell in game money or website points, Make special kits for donators

So what does that mean for those of us who have purchased VIP memberships? I myself, wouldn't mind a small monthly subscription to help pay for the server, but that does mean folks can't buy Noobz anymore and the current market will undergo some fluctuation as those with a lot of Noobz hang on to them, while others make use of the /shop and sell stuff back to the game for Noobz. I expect to see prices fluctuate as this settles out.

Market Place / Wanted: Slime Balls
« on: 18 Jun 2014, 17:16:39 »
Hi folks, I'm looking for at least 8 slime balls for a project I'm working on. I've been wandering the mining world and haven't had much luck in finding any slimes to kill for their slime balls.

Let me know what you'd want in trade. Make it a list, as I have several items, just not much in terms of rare items.

Suggestions & Ideas / Furnaces not running when offline
« on: 13 Jun 2014, 02:36:11 »
I've noticed that when I'm not on my Wilds plot, if I start my furnace up with a load of ore, if I go offline, or to another world, the furnace stops and only restarts when I return to the Wilds plot.

Is this intentional? It's a bit of a bother, having to stand there while the furnace does it's business. Especially if I'm online, but in a different world, like Town or Mining.

Support / Mobs on the Mining World Platform
« on: 13 May 2014, 17:29:59 »
Twice now I've encountered Mobs on the Mining World platform. They were easily dispatched as they were on the opposite side of the platform, but I thought that the platform was a mob free zone on the Mining World.

Has that changed?

Noobstown General / Achievement: Ride a mining cart 1km
« on: 7 May 2014, 18:52:50 »
I saw this achievement and beyond doing something silly, like building a 100 track loop and riding around it 10 times, I have a grander idea... One that will need help from everyone else.

I want to build a track 1,000 meters long in the Wild. Not a loop, but a track that all can ride and take part in constructing it. Obviously we have to wait till the next refresh of the Mining world before we embark on this project. It will require powered track portions for going up hills or a powered mine cart. But once constructed, it's one of your achievements that you can cross off, and it would provide a service to get to portions of the Mining world map that take forever to walk.

So, what do you think sirs?

Suggestions & Ideas / Wanted: The Hats Mod
« on: 7 May 2014, 00:55:55 »
I was wondering if it would be possible to add iChun's Hat mod?

Pictures / My little place in the Wilds
« on: 21 Apr 2014, 23:19:15 »
Just finished putting in my great walls and started building a place to entertain folks at.



This one is using a nice shader and Architect's Dream resource pack.









There's probably a way to hide the chat and status bar, but I'm not worried about them.



The Bedroom.



The cake is not a lie.  :P



Doing my best to keep the varmints down.



Where I do all my enchanting.



What's not visible is my lava moat that surrounds most of my plots. I'm going to have to set up a way to get in that the mobs can't use.
