Posted December 29, 2010 I found a mod that adds horses, lions, bears, wolves, and more to the game~ This is... was, my first horse, Artex. I had a barn built for him, and I blocked it off, but I think a lion spawned inside it or something and killed him. *sadface* So, mods. Do any of you use them? Share this post Link to post
Posted December 29, 2010 yep I use mods... though just the texture packs since mac confused me on how to do it... though when I tried on my friend's windows it made things worse anyone know where I can find an example castle step by step thing so I can stop being confused on how to go about building one? of course I'd add my own things but I've no clue how to start...

Posted December 30, 2010 I converted a small hill/mountain into a castle, so it's kinda oddly shaped. I'd add a guide/tip here or something, but Darkshadow said pretty much all that's to be said. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 31, 2010 Whenever I feel like making a castle, I like to save resources by building it into a hill +water features Share this post Link to post
Posted December 31, 2010 Hey everyone :3 Does anybody have a guess as to how long they're going to keep Classic Minecraft going? Share this post Link to post
Posted December 31, 2010 No clue, unfortunately. However, it would be a wise idea to add the two Classic pages to your Favorites list so that they're easily accessed one removed from the front page. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 31, 2010 Ah, alright. And that is an excellent idea... haha never can be too safe just in case, thanks Share this post Link to post
Posted December 31, 2010 My minecraft file is basically a bunch of different houses in a bunch of different places because I start feeling like doing something new. I need to go build one in the Nether... last time I didn't try very hard and ended up getting attacked. Surprise, surprise. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 31, 2010 Whenever I feel like making a castle, I like to save resources by building it into a hill +water features I'd conserve resources if I hadn't realized a long time ago that you get so much dirt and stone there's no real point in hoarding them. I use dirt for designing purposes, then replace it with stone. As for castles... I can't stand the generic square cartoon castles myself. I'd rather put in all the time and effort to build a palace with halls and rooms and gardens and fountains and stuff. SECRET PASSAGES! >> Share this post Link to post
Posted December 31, 2010 Lotus, quick tip: Ghasts can't see through glass, for some reason. To avoid constant Nether home repair, that's what I'd build your place with. Or obsidian, but that's really hard to come by... My castle, as I said, is oddly shaped. Maybe sometime I'll round or square it up... It has 3 floors, a deck going all around the third, and the roof has some stuff on it, too. Like a minecart station, and a staircase to the sky~ Share this post Link to post
Posted December 31, 2010 If you're building in the Nether, somehow I don't think the lava would be hard to come by. It'll take a while to gather up all the obsidian from your mold in the overworld, though. Share this post Link to post
Posted December 31, 2010 Thanks. Yeah, my place has a really strange shape too. The first castle I made has this random glass tower sticking out of it, back when it was my personal goal to go as high as you can go. That really isn't hard anymore. At all. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 3, 2011 I feel like going and building Tenpenny Tower from Fallout 3 for some reason :3 Tenpenny Tower Share this post Link to post
Posted January 3, 2011 (edited) Dew eet! I had an idea a while ago to build Karazhan. I... I don't know how I'd go about that. I don't even know if a chunk is tall enough to build both Kara proper and upside-down psycho-Kara underneath. Edited January 3, 2011 by Lythiaren Share this post Link to post
Posted January 3, 2011 Find a flat piece of land, build the normal part straight up, and the other part underground, then clear out all the dirt and stone and whatnot in a general area around the pshyco part. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 3, 2011 IwantitIwantitIwantit But I need some lee-way before asking for another game, since I just got 3 games for Christmas. One was a lot of money. Maybe for my birthday, but since it's in June the best I can do is watch Minecraft Let's Plays. -sigh- Share this post Link to post
Posted January 3, 2011 The Minecraft forum has a beggars' thread... If you set up an account there and ask nicely, maybe somebody will give you a paid account? Share this post Link to post
Posted January 3, 2011 Wait, where? I thought you had to buy it to play it. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 3, 2011 There's a gift code feature. If someone buys a gift code, they can give it to you so you can play. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 3, 2011 The thing is, they only list the price in euros where I see it. Share this post Link to post
Posted January 4, 2011 woop woop, when i bought it in Alpha around Christmas, it was only $10. However, I'd say it's worth twenty dollars. Share this post Link to post
