The Big Ol' Minecraft Thread!

Oh, memory leaks, how I'd missed you.

Yeah guess Minecraft is still too huge a piece of shit for me to play any longer than twenty minutes.
This is a fresh Windows install since last time I tried, too.

Not sure if this would help, but have you tried running optifine?

It's supposed to help make minecraft run better and leaner.

Oh, yeah that could work.
I don't suppose you could tell me where to download whichever version will work with the current release? Not a snapshot or anything, just the default download from Minecraft.net?

[BeatBoxingBoo]

Or just run the game, and tell it to force an update.

[YCobb]

What?
I mean I have the current release of Minecraft (as of yesterday) and want to know which of the many version of Optifine I should download.

[Turbro]

I would be perfectly pop flyin' with the old worldgen coming back. Keep swamps, ravines and structures, but bring back the 1.7.3 terrain gen.
I always managed to build something interesting to form to the terrain, but now I tend to just find a plains biome and build the same house there that I always have.

Oh, look, I found a mod for this. Go me!

Install, change worldtype.

[BeatBoxingBoo]

I don't remember what the terrain gen was like before 1.8

[Wordsmith]

So right now I'm making this cool thing

On the outside, it looks like some big ugly wall or dam or something but on the inside of the wall is an entire city.

Only true AZ kids will recognize this image.

needs lava instead of water to be historically accurate

[Dedivax]

You must be thinking about something else
EDIT: wait nvm, I think I see your point?

In regards to AZ's Minecraft History:
I burned down what I believe was the very first AZ server with lava from a floating island. Oops.

[Oolrich]

Is that from the server where Kadoom started his massive airship? Also classy island

[Noffletoff]

It has almost been two years since we started playing on Ames server, bouncing around. NOSTALGIA

I want the good ol days back

[Noffletoff]

I thought we did with one world, problem is, minecraft worlds are just too daisies big and you have no real way of uploading them.

[Lordy]

I'm pretty sure the Awkward City map was the one that was backed up.

Personally, my favourite AZ map was the one started in 1.8. The Mushroom Fortress was a mighty and indestructible fortress... until Endermen dissected the giant mushrooms.

[Komodoensis]

Oh gosh, Classy Island, and the original true AZ city. (Since Noff had one for a bit but if I remember it was laggy as shit, then I hosted one on weekends for a few weeks.) We had the giant sprawling desert, my little "mansion." Then Noff, Word and I joined forces to become the classy Trio, built Classy Island, then rented land off to others and became MILLIONARES.

Fun Fact: Classy island wasn't originally an Island. It was a peninsula like landmass, connected to the mainland by a thin strip of ground that we blew the fuck out of and then filled the water in and made it an Island.
