Topics I've Started

Thank you.

11 April 2012 - 08:41 AM

Hey there! Some of you may remember me, and some of you may not. For those of you who do remember me, I ask that you read this, as I owe you something that is long overdue.

I first joined Brohoof back when it was still a survival server under the name MyLittleMinecraft. When the server made the change to Creative mode, I was made an admin , and over the next several months I helped build, shape, and regulate the server, and through cooperation as well as the careful guidance of Ratty, we eventually became what I would consider to be the finest MLP Minecraft server in the fandom. My time spent helping to moderate this community was some of the most fun I've had both in my time as a brony, as well as in my life in general.

With that, I come to my first point. As college and other things began to occupy my time, I started to shirk my responsibilities to the server. I tried to check the Appleloosa thread at least once a week, but I was no longer looking at the Submissions forum nor even logging on to the server. At this point, I should have recognized that my passion for both Minecraft as well as my passion for moderating this server had died, and having made that realization, I should have resigned. Instead, I merely went quiet, never logging on to either the server nor the Mumble. My reasoning for this, as best I can tell, is that I did not want to admit that my time spent with everyone on this server was more or less over.

For slinking into the background and ignoring that I was abdicating my duties to the server, I sincerely apologize. It wasn't professional, it wasn't nice, and it certainly was not something that a friend should do. Again, I am sorry.

Now, with that said, I would like to thank each and every admin, player, builder, artist, chatter, and even griefer for making my time spent here amazing, hilarious, and something that I can look back on with fond memories. I can honestly say that I am proud to have had even the smallest hand in helping to shape this server and its community. Thank you all.

Well, that pretty much covers everything I wanted to say. I hope you're all enjoying your time on the server, and I'm sure you'll continue to make it the greatest MLP Minecraft server that it can be.

Thank you for your time,

Orshcmann

How To: Downgrade back to 1.6.6

30 June 2011 - 06:07 PM

Updated version of Ratty's old post.

How to downgrade

1. Make sure you are using the newest launcher. Otherwise it will force you to upgrade everytime you start the game.

2. Download the 1.6.6 package, I put that file here:

http://www.mediafire...bv41zrsavf169vr

3. Then unzip it, and make that bin folder be in place of %appdata%\.minecraft\bin

You might be wondering what %appdata% is, that is a special thing in Windows that points to C:\Users\YourUserName\AppData\Roaming. Replace YourUserName with whatever your username in windows is.
Or if you are in XP, it will be something like "C:\Documents and Settings\YourUserName\Application Data".
By using the %appdata% variable, you can just paste in %appdata%\.minecraft\bin and have it work.

On Mac, bin is in Library - Application Support - Minecraft


More detailed step by step:

1. Download

2. Type in %appdata%\.minecraft into the run menu, or that little search box thingy after clicking the start menu.

3. Delete or rename that bin folder, that is the new version so you want to nuke that.

4. Move the zip file into it.

5. Right click the zip file and choose "Extract all". I believe this works in XP as well, Windows has built in unzipping ability. If you want to use 7-zip, choose "Extract here".

6. It will probably make a new folder and unzip it into that, you'll want to move the bin folder out of that and make it so its where that old one you nuked was.

Then just start the game, and don't upgrade when it prompts you to. Or when you're ready to upgrade, click update.

Pony Paintings texture pack

29 May 2011 - 07:57 AM

The Minecraft paintings suck. Use this file to make them not suck.

Update: Here is the finished product. Thanks to Rederik for filling out some of the paintings!
Spoiler

Install: Download this, then put it in your texture packs folder. (Thanks to Ratty for the suggestion.)

Mirror link just in case.


Hazzat says:
1.4 added a new painting, so the pack linked above will leave you with a painting missing. Download the updated version here.


If you want to install it with a different texture pack, then use 7zip (or Winrar) to open your minecraft.jar, then slap the above file in the "art" folder, making sure to save it as kz.png, so as to overwrite the old paintings. Alternatively, here is a download link to a .rar of the art folder. This way you can extract it and put it into your minecraft.jar without renaming anything.
Here are some in-game screenshots of most of the paintings.

And yeah, I know there's a lot of Pinkie Pie pictures, but that's because Pinkie Pie is the best, so shuddup.

Filly pictures by Blackm3sh.

Lava grief

16 May 2011 - 09:55 PM

Figured I'd post here instead of making a new topic.

Someone placed lava in two of the towers in Canterlot. Not like, a little lava pool, but lava source blocks at the top of the towers. Jutsy and I couldn't find the origin block to see who placed them. It happened around 2:45 PST. The towers are owned by LtGoomba and Polinga777.

Polish dub

08 May 2011 - 12:55 PM

So you might have seen the story on Derpy Hooves about the horrid Polish MLP dubs. I checked them out, and they really are as bad as the letter makes them out to be. The theme song is kinda rockin', though. Well, aside from the terrifying Applejack voice. Also, it sounds a little bit like that TF2 MLP theme.

Here's a link to cut straight to the theme song.


And here's an embed if you want to just play the episode.
