  1. How big is the quarry? I generally just branch out the pipes into a tree-like formation and add a metric ton of chests to them. They will eventually overflow but having tens of double chests will push that problem quite far into future. It's doable with the simpliest pipes without any filters or anything. Just make sure you always have equal amounts of branches every time so one "side" won't overflow. E.g my usual setup is something like this bit wherever there is a branch there is actually 4 pipes going out instead of 2: ___|___ _|_ _|_ | | | | and at the end of each pipe there are 5 chests. For 64x64 quarry at the height of 64 it takes around 76 double wooden chests to keep fit all the stuff. Make it 100 just to be on safe side. That means with 4 branches at every place and 5 chests at the end you'd need just 5 levels of branching to fit everything in them. Assuming quarry gets around 1 block per second it would take around 3 days and nights at full speed to dig the stuff up. [edit] I made some awful math there actually. You only need to have two levels of branching (one to four, each of these to four more and each of those 16 pipes having 5 chests attached. Using alchemy chests instdead of wooden ones you need just ~40 of them. Again with similar splitting it would mean one double split and both of those having 4-way split and 5 chests.
  2. Are you holding down alt or alt gr?
  3. Screen resolution. Split-screen at sd resolutions is painful and I wouldn't be surprised if the MC port can't really scale to different resolutions decently.
  4. It's probably too much effort for too little "bang" but some kind of badge system might be fun/useful to have. Basically it would list the "achievements" under the avatar like "started N stupid threads" "can't read rules" "signed N posts" etc.
  5. I'm 27 and have been at perfect age for around past 15 years or so without any sight of change of that in near future.

  7. Again, how exactly is this a bad thing for the end-user? [edit] But can I still call it stupid when there is no good reasoning behind the opinion? :)

    You mean adding something completely new (and big?) instead of just updating the core and occasionally swapping around minor stuff?
  9. Is the price with or without screen? If with then how big one do you want/need? Do you plan on overclocking any of the parts?
  10. I'm relatively new to MC. First time I played it was about 8 months ago. About 6 months ago I for my first "mod" I installed Technicpack.
  11. minimr, that sounds quite similar to better ore distribution but with even more options. Any idea if it works with all "ores", including Forge ore dictionary and perhaps even stuff like TC crystals or cinnabar? [edit] Assuming I understood it right it should support forge ores indeed. Now if it would only be possible to get it to work with SSP ...
  12. Here are some that I've had more fun with than with average games: space pirates and zombies defense grid space empires 4 (5 is kind of sucky) overlord - all of it's versions UFO extraterrestrials Dungeon Defenders warhammer 40k all RTS'es + FPS Serious Sam - first + it's expansion and third were nice, second is kind of "meh" torchlight sanctum universe at war far cry harvest: massive encounter orcs must die titan quest painkiller - later DLC's are rather bad but first few are awesome prototype company of heroes UFO aftermath/shock/light X-Com UFO defense jagged alliance 2 empire: total war - all the versions and expansions of it plants vs zombies

    Building Ideas!

    Someone else created a thread about building a self-replicating mining machine that you set off and it "moves" around deploying new miners/quarrys, scooping up all the material and once a spot has been stripmined move itself to a new place.
  14. Re: "Minecraft Enhanced" Addon for Technic - The Good News And The Bad News How is the memory usage during and before the slowdown? I generally get such lag when something leaks memory and GC is run constantly
  15. I tend to do the same but also ignore the avatar an take the whole forum as a single entiry. Basically it's me vs the forum :)
  16. What is counterproductive is to have the same game have two nearly completely separate code bases for different platforms instead of unifying them.
  17. Or in some cases that person might hope the actual content of their post is good enough to not require fancy avatar to be valuable addition to the community. Obviously that assumes the community is not suffering from ADD and can actually read what is written.
  18. That's pretty much impossible unless you talk about stuff that's older than 20 years. Also, Minecraft can't work without OpenGL.
