Potions? Make me into a giant? Let me breathe underwater?

Plus it sounds like there's 2 more major updates before the final drops, which likely means no new "permanent" world until end of November.

Notch says there's two more features he wants to add before a feature freeze on the 18th, giving them a month to polish before launch.

I guess it depends on if they release a "final beta" with those last two features on the 18th, and then polish that for a month, or if they don't bother releasing that final beta. If they release a beta release after the feature freeze, I don't think polishing would get in the way of starting a new "permanent" world...?

and i guess i've known it all along / the truth is, you have to be soft to be strong

Yup. 11/18, a week after Skyrim and two days before Zelda.

Excuse me if I don't trust a single word Notch says.

Give Notch a month to play with his toy, and "feature freeze" or not he will add shit that will require a reboot. I'd bet real monies on it.

So it goes.

I saw a post on the minecraft forums recently that someone was developing a tool to smooth the transition from 1.7 to 1.8+ chunks. basically it inserts a river at the join, then smooths the terrain down to the riverbed. Not sure how it deals with caverns. Thought it seemed interesting: maybe we could go back to Bridgeport?

(That said, I've been really enjoying the "start again" nature of the last few weeks.)

I've seen some of the edge-smoothing tools too (haven't seen the river one though). Pretty neat.

I wouldn't mind starting over (museum complex notwithstanding). I do hope we can get a cross-world portal going for at least a limited time though.

Or stick with BridgePort. Either way. There's a lot invested there, that's for sure.

So it goes.

I like the fact that I have a place near civilization! I don't like how holey the ground is under my place but it does save on excavation

I hate the fact that I'm falling behind on building out my complex, but have time to think about it more

Time for a server update!

Here's the beta 1.9-pre2 client jar: http://assets.minecraft.net/1_9-pre2/minecraft.jar

For the uninitiated, installation instructions are:
  • Quit Minecraft.
  • Download the new jar.
  • Go to your home Library/Application Support/minecraft/bin folder.
  • Replace the old minecraft.jar with the downloaded one.
  • Restart Minecraft!

Wait... scratch that! I need to update the texture pack before updating the server since the new prerelease adds some items...

Hey Drew - there's a small peninsula a little NW of you that's partially lit up, and I wondered if that land was going to be a part of the complex or just lit up for baddies:



If the latter, mind if I build there?

So it goes.

Haha. Thanks, and I will! Probably something simple and sleek to keep with the modern vibe of the neighborhood.

In case you haven't checked out the new potion effects statuses, check out your inventory the next time you eat zombie flesh.



A similar one should show up if you get poisoned by a spider or from eating raw poultry.

What's the difference with that now? Is that saying you have :27 more seconds of being poisoned? I haven't noticed that on any of these yet. I see your food bar is green, but not making the connection. I haven't been poisoned yet.

That's what it appears to mean - the food bar will keep draining faster for the duration of the 'poisoned' effect, which is what the timer is for.

Yes, but note: Poison ≠ Hunger.

Hunger makes the food bar glow green and be consumed faster.
Poison makes your health bar glow green and slowly deplete.

Huh...didn't realize they were separate effects. I always thought of it as "food poisoning" from eating the uncooked/rotten meat.

I am going to take a short respite from minecraft -- I need to get work done in the evenings this week... So if I pop my head in, tell me to get back to work.
