No, he's stated that only those whom bought the Alpha would get it free after release. Beta members will get it until release, after which they'll either have to buy it again, or buy any new version / 'expansion packs' that are released (which Alpha members will get for free).

Unless he changed his mind.

Well, according to the website, you still get it after release if you purchase it in the beta.

Minecraft Beta 1.4 is out! (old news yeah)

I like the wolves very much and their behavior and animations are kinda cute! Now I need a name for my pet wolf.:p

I think the cookies are just for the fun, because they are very ineffective to make and eat. One full stack of cookies [eight (8)] heals you as much as one cooked porkchop.
So you don't want to bring them to fight as emergency food. In addition to that, they are very expensive. One cookie costs two pieces of grain and one cocoa bean, which can be found in dungeons.

If hmod could just UPDATE faster, I'd be going nuts with 5 or so wolves in a pack, hunting mobs outside of my treehouse.

Wasn't hMod discontinued?

Wolves are kinda useless. They just get in the way while I'm building. D:

it is discontinued i think, people use bucket now. You can right click your dog/wolf to make it sit and not follow you

Yeah, that works too I guess, but I had so many of them, it would have been a pain to do.

hey guys ive seen in some minecraft videos that they have slabs looking blocks that they can stick to the side of the compactable staircases to look like its a handle and else where, i figured its something like half of a door? coz ive tried to put half a door onto the stairs and it looks like the same thing however the doors only positions on one side of the area of the block if you know what i mean... just wondering if any of you know how to get a handle

Do you mean a redstone button? I'm not sure what you mean.

Note: This post counts as a separate post.

Minecraft 1.5 is out! Yeah, baby!

Any new opinions? This version is a little bit major overhaul, bigger than the last updates.

I gave modding a try, here's a WIP mob:

The modelling aspect is all done by code, it's more trial and error than I'd like but considering I cannot do real 3D modelling I find this a lot easier :p

You can find some GUI editor that models the mob for you + maps a skin to it, but those tend to have a lot of problems with them and your model might not quite look the way the preview shows it.

My mob is looking a lot less disjointed now, just need to think of something unique for it to do.

As for the actual coding of mods in general, if you know Java it's relatively straight forward apart from figuring out what you can actually do (there's not really much in the way of documentation for the Minecraft Coder Pack right now)

I think llama is the direction it's now heading :p It was originally meant to be half pig half diplodocus.

The plan, once I've figured out how to do it, is to make them so that you can ride them with a saddle; once riding them you have full control and can make them spit fireballs.

    Signatures can be edit in your account profile. As for the old stuffs, I'm thinking it's because Blizzard is now under Microsoft, and because of Microsoft Xbox going the way it is, it's dreadful.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
