There'll be maps showing the paths inside the domes.


surprisingly, not great maps

Pfah! Assuming the PDF is just a larger version of this*, it's good enough.

(*and now the blasted wifi is working again, I can see it is)

Well, good enough for me, in that it orders my memories of the place, so if you like I'll volunteer for doing that bit.
Once there's enough space there shouldn't be any problems.

S'back up.

 

I'm off to Glasgow in a minute to see Russell Howard, so if it goes down again between now and about midnight you're screwed :P

And down again.

Oh well, have fun at Russell Howard!

STOP BREAKING IT :@

 

Perhaps try not to use the jump command so much, every time it stops responding the last set of commands are a lot of jumps. I think it's running our of memory and not knowing what to do with itself :|

Mostly Matt I think, I did a little while I was doing the walkway.

 

Someone (Mouse?) could put rails on the skyways. Mmm, rails.

If I press something (possibly shift-F2 instead of just F2) I get the screen flickering for ages before it tells me its saved huge_2011-03-05_21.09.05.tga - which is 1.8GB in size.

What is that?

I don't have anything willing to even try opening a file that size. :S

TGA file format referred and as TARGA file format, is a raster graphic file format

Most commonly used in Jamaica raster files.

I know that - I meant what's the image? (Or what's it supposed to be?)

A screenshot shouldn't be more than 1920x1200 - at 32 bits per pixel, that's in the region of 9MB, not 1800MB

I just did a quick script to read in the start of the file, and the header information (stuff that says how wide/high the image is and so on) seems to be blank, and after that it just repeats $=J$=J$= for a long time - spot checks in the rest of the file shows other random three-character sequences later.

Trying to read the whole file results in a memory error whatever I use (irfanview can normally load anything and it complains) - I'm pretty sure that tga viewer would do the same, unless you know it can handle huge files?

You're going to have to explain that - I can't work out wtf you're on about. :(

Can you use the web version on the minecraft site or do you have to spend money to join Tehserver?
From: Peter (BOUGHTONP) 5 Mar 2011 23:21
To: Kriv 1074 of 3934
To join Teh Mine server you have to spend €15 buying Minecraft, which can be played in-browser or downloaded.

Minecraft Classic is free, but not compatible with proper Minecraft. (I think you can play on Classic servers though.)

I dunno about handling huge files, but there seems to be plenty of sotware available that is specifically designed to reduce .tga file sizes
