Hocking Posted September 9, 2011 Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 http://assets.minecr...e/minecraft.jar If anyone is interested. Thanks for sharing. Had a brief look in creative mode at the new blocks, really happy with those additions. I was pleasantly surprised when the sun went down to find the new lighting is in this file. It's a lot softer and the transition is a lot smoother, a nice touch especially for creative/creative SMP servers I think. Switched over to Survival mode to see if I could find NPC villages - managed to make two furnaces before the client black-screened. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted September 9, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 9, 2011 yeah it's not too unbuggy, so it is kind of a "download and use at own risk" It carries on telling me it's ran out of memory, problem is this is when it's jsut passing 900MB of memory use and it normally did 1.2GB or so. I have 6GB so I think they set a hard limit in somewhere not taking into account people have more than a few GB of ram and don't mind feeding the game all of it.

I have 6GB so I think they set a hard limit in somewhere not taking into account people have more than a few GB of ram and don't mind feeding the game all of it. This has been a problem for me and a few friends since 1.5 or 1.6 if I recall correctly. Like you I have 6GBs of RAM and I frequently run into it. I've found that keeping render distance set to normal rather than far seems to reduce the occurrence slightly, but also nuking the install every so often reduces it even further. I hadn't run into the problem lately until visiting a server belonging to one of the Bukkit plug-in devs. He was teleporting myself and another chap all over their extremely large server for about two hours. The memory error started to occur every few minutes after that and nuking the install has had it only show up the once since. I think it's possibly something to do with information stored locally from various worlds that for whatever reason doesn't unload. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deanb Posted September 10, 2011 Author Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 I've not played MC in a while so I was unsure if it's a 1.8 thing or not. Like last I played properly the game didn't have dogs n beds n shit like that so it's all kinda new. I think when it comes out proper I'll hop on the forum server.

Mal Posted September 10, 2011 Report Share Posted September 10, 2011 (edited) So, first map I spawned got me into Waterworld. Endless ocean with scattered islands. I went 4000 blocks one way before I gave up. Second map, I died in an abandoned mineshaft ravine because in one of the shafts was a spider spawner. Good so far. Also, combat seemed balanced out now. You have to spam click if you want to swing your sword without a break. So yeah... D: Edited September 10, 2011 by MaliciousH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
