Jacques Cousteau

I found an area in 1.8 where I could mine some of the new stone.  After walking around a little I noticed there was a nearby ocean.  8 night vision potions and 10 boats (these things still break way too easy) later I found an ocean monument!

I chugged an underwater potion and took a quick look around.  These things hurt and really hate squid.  Time to set up camp on a nearby island and going on a raiding spree later tonight.

Update to snapshot?

I know we don’t normally do this but would there be interest in updating to one of the more stable snapshots?  I was thinking one that Hermitcraft uses so we can start doing some of the new stuff.  There are still bugs and it is a snapshot so I’m not sure of all the problems in it.  Let us know.

Happy Birthday!

Happy 29th ColMatrix!

Gold farm done -ish

I have finished up the building for the gold farm.  As with everything I do I’m not sure on the look and will probably update things as I go.

goldfarmfront

The front where you ride the minecart to the afk spot.

goldfarmportal

The portal is opposite down the main hallway.

goldfarmtop

The view from the portal.

goldfarmvillager

The villagers who trade for gold and rotten flesh will be on the sides of the hallway.

goldfarmside

The side view.  The surroundings still needs some terraforming.

overflowkill

While afking some pigmen and items will go through the portals.  They are collected and killed here to prevent massive lag when entering the nether in this area.  It is highly recommended to never go through one of the big spawning portals or you will end up here.
