Yes and no.

that was me

Damn fine work sir.

Haha, I was watching the little heads moving about, and thinking "huh? why did Matt suddenly jump over there", and then thinking "eh, why is someone putting a bunch of bricks in the swimming pool?" and then I went "meh" and looked back at plates, and after a bit in the corner of my eye I saw a weird thing, and I looked and all the "bricks" had gone, along with a bunch of surrounding blocks. :D


Now everyone has gone offline or afk though, so I've got nothing to watch. :(

:-D
The glowstone lava doesn't look as good as I'd hoped, but I'm not going back and changing it now, I already drowned enough times filling it with water.

That was probably me and my 128 blocks of TNT, trying to "dig" the other end of the pool out.

It's going to take a while. I think getting a block editing plugin might be easier as there is a lot of obsidian at the bottom and some stray bedrock blocks floating in mid-air :(

Like this one for instance.

Bah, that guy who did the Chichen Itza temple cleared a much bigger area! And without using dynamite!

He must not sleep nor work. I need to do both unfortunately.

I had 2x windows open, 1 with game and 1 with map and could type in either & have it show up in the game

I don't! :D

I should be back on the server at the weekend, so if it hasn't been cleared by then I can help finish it off. :)

What about this one?

Still doesn't resolve the stray bedrock (above the bottom of the world) issue.

We're going to need a plugin to be able to remove those.

Nah, it's shit.

Hmm... is it individual blocks or big sections?

If it's just one or two blocks, I'd be tempted to keep it as a feature - or maybe build a shark around it. :)


Kos - have you seen anything that can export to Collada format?

Couple of individual blocks at the moment.

The other question is, how are we going to fill it with water?

That's easy enough. You put a layer of dirt into the pool, one block below the level you want the water at. Fill that area above the dirt layer with water so that it's smooth, then dig the earth out from under it.

That no longer works with 1.3. Notch "fixed" it.

Edit: Thought you were referring to the bedrock removal "hack"

I think you could do it with half as much - a checkerboard shape with mud placed first, then water in the holes, then dig the mud and it'll get filled in?

Maybe. I haven't tried that way. But then, since you're going to have to put blocks in the blank spaces of the pattern anyway (so that the non-blank spaces have something to be placed against), it's probably just as quick to make the layer solid.
