actually i worded that kind of funny. it works. it loads and all. it just runs at like a frame every 10 seconds.

change the rendering distance/fog, if you haven't tried already. press 'f' ingame, or Options > Render distance

yeah i tried messing with it every which way, it just wouldn't work. plus if -my- computer is any indication, it would just explode eventually anyways. thing's pretty processor intensive and this netbook doesn't even have a cpu fan lol.

Right now it's random when you start a new world.

the official slogan for minecraft should be 'made by aspies, for aspies'

it's the first time since the last autechre webcast i've found twitter useful. notch basically tells you everything he's doing as he's doing it

Wow

did anyone else lol at "rainforest"?

nawwww maximum rain, maximum temp. what else could it be?

i just meant the idea of a rainforest in the low-res, blocky tech of minecraft.

I have to hand it to Notch tho, he's approaching things smartly - revealing climate zones at the same time as the portals. This will actually make the portal business worthwhile, as I assume to actually get to a different biome you'd need to do some perilous hell traversing.

to get to hell, craft a portal. then, every 1 square of hell dimension will equal 16 squares of not-hell dimension (i'm assuming in the same direction but who knows?). to get back, craft another portal. which is indeed a good way of approaching things. notch kinda reminds me of mike singleton in his unique, clever choices re essential game elements.

  Reveal hidden contents

making a portal will involve crafting a door out of obsidian, then setting fire to it. and i'm imagining water will be in short supply in hell, so making obsidian to get back will be hard. simple and genius!

 

um...solution: bring obsidian with you :-)

i was hoping those biomes would be a little bigger... from watching that vid you could walk across most of those biome zones in less than 10 seconds.

the biomes will be bigger.

still WIP, god damn it. new vegas distracted me for a couple of days.
