I hate all the friends on the MC forums who think that they absolutely need the realistic texture pack. You can tell by looking at minecraft that it is not meant to be realistic. Besides, it's not a very good pack anyways since everything looks like it's in the brown-and-gray stuff spectrum.

Speaking of that, I wonder why no one has made a highres player skin, if it's possible.

Because player skins are player-made :O

Texture packs are player made.

[OneWithFire]

Yes, but high res player skins need to be made every time the player wants to change his skin.

It's not possible to make others able to see it. But you can replace your skin file in your minecraft folder with a highres skin. The minecraft skin upload thing only accepts one file dimension though.

Dimensions of a player skin need to be a certain size. Hi def player skins are impossible.

forget:
I was mining, I was doing good.. I recently had found a small patch of diamonds, yet my inventory barely had anything more in it. So I decided to mine deeper, next thing I know "OHWHATTHEforget-" I hit lava..

Literally :c

I kind had the same problem, except when I mined a small patch of rock, all of a sudden, a humongous flow of lava came flowing out of the patch, and covered me up, and I got killed.

Thats why you put a block in front of the flow.

Pro tip: Never mine ANY block directly under you while underground.

It’s far from finished, but it’s actually getting to a playable state. It’s now possible to mine blocks and place them back into the world, but items and other entities aren’t handled correctly yet. Player data gets sent correctly, the streaming works perfectly.
The maps are infinite at the moment, and uses exactly the same save format as the single player version. When the server starts saving players, it’ll save them to “player_<name>.dat” or similar, and it’s highly likely that the single player version will do the same, so if you share your level save with another minecraft player, you’ll have separate character saves.

There are two major bugs at the moment:
* Sometimes a player will get “stuck” in place. They can still interact with the surroundings, but movement becomes impossible. I think this is client-side.
* There’s a (major) memory leak on the server, causing it to crash after some 15 minutes of gameplay.

I won’t work on MP more this week, except perhaps try to fix those two bugs. Next week I’ll add inventory/chest management to the multiplayer and possibly dropped items, and there will be invite only public testing going on next week. When that works ok, I will release a very early public version of survival mode multiplayer so people can try it.

Public Test next week WOOOOOOOOO!

[OneWithFire]

Public Test next week WOOOOOOOOO!

Invite only

[canto xe]

Invite only

Well when testing ends it'll be public
