Two Questions:

 

A: What settings do you use to get Cartograph to look like in Shovel's post?

 

B: What's a reliable way to boost a minecart long distances?

 

Sorry to ask, but my boosters always break after a short time <_<

[A] Oblique - night mode I would believe.

 

This is my favorite booster. Easy to make and goes on for a long, long time. Never had any problems with it, which is why I never changed blueprints.

Only problem that it's only one-way reset. If you want two ways reset you better not make the top part.

Just make sure you don't turn before dipping down. This slows your cart down...always leave one rail of flat, straightness before dipping down.

Thanks for the explanation Peronix. I wasn't too far off; love the water slide part though.

Quick question.... Is there anyway to make a cart move without you having to 'bump' it and chase?

See Giordano's booster pics.

 

I mean at the start of a run, not some way along when it looses speed. I have a tunnel + track from my spawn to my fort, and with a long ramp, and unless I move quick when I bump it, its gone and stopped half way down the 'flat' tunnel.

This is the booster system I use so It only requires one push at the beginning. (This goes from the top all the way down to the bottom floor mineshaft I made, so the lighting isnt very good.)

I can remember seeing one where the guy used water and the cart dropped or something and it worked that way...

My relaxation method involves a bottle of lotion, beautiful women, and partial nudity. Yes I get massages.

You could rig a loop up with a junction tht leads to your main track so that once your cart gets up to speed and you get in it, you can hit the button from the cart and be coralled onto the main track. Or, have the startting track go the wrong direction for a while, then curve bakc around so that you could push it, then wait a bit for it to come back going the right direction and hop on it as it goes by.

Minecraft decided to be mean to me today. Spent the Minecraft day building my home, when it was unfinished at night i decided to simply keep working. After a bit a get attacked from behind by a spider which had crawled through my watching hole. I come back to find two spiders inside my home, i kill one then accidently fall in and get killed by the other. After that i came back and one hit the last spider, only to jump into my house and have three creeper follow me in the huge hole in the top. :cry:

I've posted like 6 videos by this guy, but he's seriously brilliant. If you're interested in the mechanics of minecraft, he's the guy to watch.

Oh that's terrible...happened to one my first ever amazing saves... I worked so hard on it, I was really saddened when it went. Not mad, just saddened.

i had always thought that the issue which you described was caused by existing chunks rearranging themselves because there was a problem in saving the level that messed up the order. this happened on my server any time i closed it down without using the stop command, such as if the lappy it ran on crashed. however upon seeing the server map you presented, the part that was missing does not seem to have been switched with another. rather it seems to have been deleted entirely and replaced with a brand new chunk. its really annoying as im sure youd agree. my server looks like a ton of buildings made of stone with grassy roofs. looks awful!

PICS INCOMING

 

Okay, so I ditched the Hawaii island map because I couldn't find any freaking mines. I didn't want to travel across the sea to get some iron neither, so I made a new one. Default MC map, default biomes.

 

My base so far:

I built it next to a underground pond... indoor pool ftw?

NOW IT IS UP TO YOU

I might build a garden here. I've got from my base all the way to the mountains. What should I build?

Ethos is incredible.

 

 

 

After not playing for 2 weeks, just got back into it. Fixed my mine cart system up a bit, so that you can't see any redstone wire (Yeah I was stupid), and then I started to build an igloo in the 'Winter' part of my map on a lake. Basically a semi circle made out of wool. It gets confusing when it is 23 block diameter...
