Off Topic / Re: how does one install Minecraft on Xubuntu 13.04?

« on: May 12, 2013, 06:18:54 AM »

you have to go to Minecraft.net and download the windows executable to use with WINE.

Ahaha no.


Install wget and JDK. Then open your terminal, whatever it's called, and execute this:

Code: [Select]

mkdir minecraft
cd minecraft
wget https://s3.amazonaws.com/MinecraftDownload/launcher/minecraft.jar
java -jar minecraft.jar

Then, to run it later, from the terminal:

Code: [Select]

cd minecraft
java -jar minecraft.jar

How will server announcements be handled in the mobile client? Any plans on updating the desktop version to make the chat thing not look like crap?

You can add a bookmark to the homepage on Android.

It still shows up in your web browser as usual, though.

The key.dat is salted (or something else) with the computer MAC (or name) and the network MAC (or SSID). Take or give a few, I'm not sure about the exact terms. Anyway, it becomes invalid when one or more of them change.

Pretty sure it isn't invalidated by the SSID changing.

Who's job is it then, if you are the only one that is complaining?

Tell that to suggestions+requests.

If you want to search topic title, use site:blockland.us intitle:"topic title"

And if I want to search for something posted by Port?

Thanks for telling us, we didn't notice that it was gone...

also, go to google and site:blockland.us [thing you're searching for]

Better general searching, but much less filtering features.

Thanks.


EDIT:
Oh, wow, I thought you had the TorqueScript stuff there. So I should just feel free to submit any code right here?

For the stuff that's there, feel free to send pull requests etc. I have no idea about why the new add-on code isn't on there though.

Can you clean it up now? It's a little hard to figure out what's going on.

Done. The old stuff now lives at https://github.com/BlocklandGlass-Archive.

Cool, but my eyes. Blocklander's need to spend more time making their UI look atleast half decent.

UI isn't so important for the first beta, but I agree with that it's currently really ugly.

https://github.com/BlocklandGlass looks like it could be related.

Yep, that's the one, although I suppose it's time to clean up some of the older repositories soon. Jincux, time to move the old stuff into some sort of archive org?

It doesn't have to be full-code anyway; it just has to copy what it does.

Deriving from a subset of it would still be a derivate work and against the license.

Then why are you still complaining, and not already in the process of making something comparable?

You can complain that something is crap without making something better.

Then rewrite important parts in a slightly different way and use your own scripts for the rest?

By then he might as well rewrite it from scratch (and I doubt he wants to be in the business of rewriting the entire RTB anyway). Also, see this (about GPL, but mainly about the virality aspect, which is the problem with CC ND).

http://shutter-project.org/

Shutter is overkill and a pain to use. Personally I use this together with incron and ksnapshot. Takes a bit of work to get started, but works neatly after that.

You should fork RTB's code as a base and revive the mod.
