#10 [00:19] <VoxelHead> win/!: Having exclamation marks or other special characters in your windows username can break minecraft. A workaround is available. Download and run the following file:

#15 [00:28] <darcknes> hello I need help
#16 [00:29] <xales> We can't read your mind.
#17 [00:29] <tiwake> dont ask to ask, just ask

#19 [00:29] <darcknes> sorry
#20 [00:30] <darcknes> my mine craft keeps freezing or some thing close to that
#21 [00:30] <xales> Are you using any mods or texture packs?
#22 [00:30] <darcknes> no
#23 [00:31] <darcknes> no wait I have the Painterly pack
#24 [00:31] <darcknes> texture
#25 [00:31] <xales> Try running it with only the default texture pack.
#26 [00:31] <darcknes> but it freezes at the mojang screen
#27 [00:32] <xales> ??> darcknes forceupdate
#28 [00:32] <VoxelHead> darcknes: (forceupdate) You may need to reinstall the locally installed files that Minecraft puts into place.
#29 [00:32] <VoxelHead> darcknes: (forceupdate) To do so, start Minecraft, press 'Options' (above the 'Login' button), Press 'Force update!', then press 'Done', and login to Minecraft.
#30 [00:33] <darcknes> it still freeze
#31 [00:33] <xales> ??> darcknes win/reinst
#32 [00:33] <VoxelHead> darcknes: (win/reinst) You may need to reinstall the locally installed files that Minecraft puts into place.
#33 [00:33] <VoxelHead> darcknes: (win/reinst) To do so, press your Windows+R keys, type in %AppData% at the dialog, and press Enter. In the window that appears, open the .minecraft directory, and delete everything except for the saves directory that you see therein. Then, try running Minecraft again. Good luck!

#36 [00:36] <mib_tlhags> I haved paid for game but cannot download. I can only player in server.
#37 [00:38] <xales> mib_tlhags: What error does it give you?
#38 [00:38] <xales> :ts/launcher > darcknes
#39 [00:39] <xales> hm
#40 [00:39] <mib_tlhags> no error, just pops up cannot download straight away
#41 [00:39] <darcknes> it just freezes
#42 [00:39] <xales> darcknes: Are you trying to use the download, or browser, version?
#43 [00:40] <xales> mib_tlhags: Does it say that when you try to download from minecraft.net or when you try to open Minecraft?
#44 [00:40] <mib_tlhags> download when trying to download from minecraftnet
#45 [00:41] <xales> mib_tlhags: Are you using Internet Explorer?
#46 [00:41] <mib_tlhags> yes
#47 [00:41] <xales> Use a different browser.
#48 [00:41] <xales> For example: http://google.com/chrome
#49 [00:41] <mib_tlhags> like what?
#50 [00:41] <mib_tlhags> ok ill try

#54 [00:49] * Ignorama1 [Ignorama1@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#55 [00:49] <xales> darcknes: Completely uninstall Java, then reinstall it.
#56 [00:50] <darcknes> tried that only works for a day at best
#57 [00:51] <xales> Try it again, if it still doesn't work after doing that, come back. Make sure you are installing Java 6, not Java 7.
#58 [00:51] <darcknes> ok

#60 [00:51] * Schriever [Schriever@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#61 [00:53] <Schriever> I've been trying to update minecraft, but am getting the "fatal error 4: null" message. I've found several options, one of which is that my anti-virus might be blocking minecraft and keeping it from connecting. However, I have sophos anti-virus (provided by my university), and even though I added minecraft as an exception, it still isn't working.
#62 [00:53] <Schriever> Any suggestions?
#63 [00:53] <darcknes> jave 6 and update 30 right
#64 [00:54] <Schriever> I think so
#65 [00:54] <xales> darcknes: yes
#66 [00:54] <xales> Schriever: What operating system are you using?
#67 [00:55] <Schriever> Mac Snow Leopard
#68 [00:56] <xales> Schriever: One sec, I know that's a fairly common error, but I don't remember what the fix is; Scott should be around, he is the Mac expert.
#69 [00:56] <xales> Scott: hi.
#70 [00:56] <Schriever> hello
#71 [00:58] <Scott> erm
#72 [00:58] <Scott> you're using antivirus on a mac?
#73 [00:59] <Schriever> Yes, the school provides macbooks to the students that dual boot mac and windows, and they put sophos on both sides.
#74 [00:59] <Scott> that sounds dumb
#75 [00:59] <Scott> anyways, is everything up to date?
#76 [00:59] <Schriever> Because it is :P
#77 [01:00] <Schriever> I think so, but I'm trying to make sure. I'm trying to figure out how to update java
#78 [01:01] * Cookies [Cookies@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#79 [01:02] <Scott> apple menu > software update
#80 [01:02] <Schriever> Yeah, it just finished searching/scanning and says everything is up to date
#81 [01:05] <Schriever> so...any ideas?
#82 [01:05] <xales> Schriever: You are trying to run the full version of Minecraft, and from the downloaded .app, correct?
#83 [01:06] <Schriever> Yes. I have also tried re-downloading minecraft, but when I opened it, it didn't even completely install before giving the same message, so I restored the old app
#84 [01:09] <Schriever> Should I try deleting my .minecraft file?
#85 [01:13] <Schriever> I think that's probably the one thing I haven't tried so far, b/c I didn't want to lose my saves
#86 [01:15] <xales> you can delete it without losing saves
#87 [01:15] <Schriever> you can?
#88 [01:15] <xales> and by that, I mean, delete everything inside it except the folders called 'saves' and 'stats'
#89 [01:18] <Schriever> still a fatal error. If this occurs so often, why hasn't it been fixed? Or are there so many causes that it would be pointless anyway?
#90 [01:19] <xales> well, usually it's something fairly obvious, like a file got corrupted by the OS
#91 [01:19] <xales> (which isn't somethiing they can fix)
#92 [01:20] <xales> first, try playing it in your browser
#93 [01:20] <xales> then, if that doesn't work, and your computer dual-boots with Windows, I'd suggest copying the saves and stats over and see if it runs under Windows

#96 [01:22] <schr1ever> sorry, I missed the last message because my browser crashed
#97 [01:23] <schr1ever> and then I had to pick a new nickname (and I notice that it says I'm still here under the old one)
#98 [01:25] <xales> 01:21:17 <@xales> first, try playing it in your browser
#99 [01:25] <xales> 01:21:41 <@xales> then, if that doesn't work, and your computer dual-boots with Windows, I'd suggest copying the saves and stats over and see if it runs under Windows
#100 [01:25] <schr1ever> Trying to play it in the browser it what made it crash. It had already done it a couple of times when I tried earlier, but I was foolish enough to think I could close the tab as soon as I noticed it was about to crash
#101 [01:26] <schr1ever> I'm running firefox 8.0 if that means anything
#102 [01:26] <schr1ever> I'll try windows tomorrow, it's getting late here. Thanks for the help!
#103 [01:27] <xales> schr1ever: no problem, and if it doesn't work, you're welcome to come back and see if anyone else has any ideas
#104 [01:27] <xales> (normally more people are around than just me)
#105 [01:27] <schr1ever> Awesome, will do. Bye

#125 [02:13] <mib_dmqn6a> i purchased minecraft on one computer but it says i have not on another computer
#126 [02:14] <xales> What, exactly, does it say?
#127 [02:14] <xales> Are you trying to log in to the same account?
#128 [02:14] <mib_dmqn6a> yes
#129 [02:15] <mib_dmqn6a> it also says "user not premium"
#130 [02:16] <xales> Then the account you are logging into is not marked premium.
#131 [02:16] <mib_dmqn6a> how do i make it a premium account
#132 [02:17] <xales> You buy the game for that account.
#133 [02:17] <mib_dmqn6a> i already did
#134 [02:17] <xales> Obviously not, or it wouldn't say "user not premium".
#135 [02:17] <mib_dmqn6a> i'll try repurchasing it
#136 [02:19] <xales> Or, if you actually have bought it, you could try using the account you bought it under

#140 [02:22] <xales> Guest24295: Does it do this as soon as you launch Minecraft, or after playing for a while?
#141 [02:22] <Guest24295> after a few minutes
#142 [02:22] <xales> mib_dmqn6a: You either haven't bought it, have bought a gift code, or aren't using the correct account.
#143 [02:22] <xales> Guest24295: Try updating Java, from java.com
#144 [02:23] <Guest24295> odd. well I definitely bought it, and I only have one account... whats that link?

#150 [02:25] <xales> ??> Guest24295 win/dxdiag

#283 [06:29] <Kiai> I used MCEdit to move the spawn point of a server to the inside of a greater building to provide a better start for new players joining it. Unfortunately we keep spawning on the highest possible point above that spawnpoint and not right there. Why is that the case?
#284 [06:29] <TheNoodle> The default spawning code for minecraft servers is dodgy.
#285 [06:29] <TheNoodle> You're better off using craftbukkit as a wrapper then a plugin like Essentials for exact spawning.
#286 [06:32] <Kiai> Fine. Thank you anyway.
#287 [06:32] <Kiai> Fine. Thank you anyway.

#305 [07:28] <TheNoodle> ehh
#306 [07:28] <TheNoodle> kinda...?
#307 [07:28] <TheNoodle> depends on a few things
#308 [07:29] <TheNoodle> Have you entered any personal info into skype? or linked it to facebook?
#309 [07:29] <Serone> no
#310 [07:29] <Serone> its a new email maked specyaly only for skype
#311 [07:30] <TheNoodle> then apart from getting your ip they can't really do much.
#312 [07:31] <TheNoodle> And if you were talking to them on irc they have that anyway.
#313 [07:31] <Serone> so its not very much danger
#314 [07:31] <TheNoodle> Not really no.
#315 [07:32] <Serone> and he isnt the tipe of that person

#477 [10:58] <jhalse> Hi, need help with black screen/Java issue in Minecraft Premium. I get a black screen immediately after I hit 'login', regardless if I play in browser or if I play the downloaded .exe. I have everything updated (ATI display driver, Java, Windows) and a clean Minecraft installation without mods or anything.
#478 [10:59] <jhalse> It seems to be a Java-related issue: in the task manager I see the process "java.exe" (when playing in browser) and "javaw.exe" (when playing downloaded .exe) suddenly eat up 99% of the CPU when the screen goes black - and stay that way until I kill the process manually? Thx
#479 [10:59] <ineedhelp> jhalse shut down computer
#480 [10:59] <SetoSeyerd> anyone know anything about how the seasons function? I worked on a good amount of things in a part of the map and now it is covered in snow (and ice). Do the seasons change or am I stuck with cold now?

#609 [11:34] * bellows [bellows@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#610 [11:34] <jhalse> great to hear Aurelius. Sometimes the error shows as blue screen and a complete restart of pc instead of the usual Java hang.
#611 [11:34] <AureliusM> jhalse: These black screen issues are hard to track down, can you do a dxdiag so we can check the driver details?
#612 [11:34] <AureliusM> ??> jhalse win/dxdiag
#613 [11:34] <VoxelHead> jhalse: (win/dxdiag) Press the Win+R keys, and type "dxdiag" (no quotes) in the box. Press enter. If prompted about verifying WHQL, select Yes. Once it has finished loading, click the "Save All Information" button and save it to your desktop.
#614 [11:34] <VoxelHead> jhalse: (win/dxdiag) Open the file you just saved, and copy the contents. Paste them on http://pastebin.com/ and click Submit. Then, copy the link in your browser's address bar and paste it into the IRC channel.
#615 [11:35] <ineedhelp> aure it still wont work
#616 [11:35] <bellows> When you purchace Minecraft do you have to make a payment every month or is it just one payment for the whole thing?
#617 [11:35] <AureliusM> jhalse: Also which computer and which OS, sometimes there's a known issue with these
#618 [11:35] <ineedhelp> whole thing
#619 [11:36] <AureliusM> ineedhelp: can yo copy the whole error into a pastebin and post the link here?
#620 [11:36] <AureliusM> ??> ineedhelp pastebin

#622 [11:36] <bellows> Ok Thank you for Your help
#623 [11:36] <jhalse> Computer is kind of old...: Intel Pentium 1,5Ghz, 1GB ram, running Windows XP pro.
#624 [11:36] <AureliusM> bellows: ? I haven't helped you yet. But no you only buy minecraft account once.
#625 [11:37] <ineedhelp> IT WORKS
#626 [11:37] <ineedhelp> yeah
#627 [11:37] <AureliusM> bellows: sorry, I missed ineedhelp helped you !

#631 [11:41] <jhalse> only by 8 years... :-)
#632 [11:42] <AureliusM> jhalse: Have you checked HP's site for drivers ? I am checking AMD now.
#633 [11:43] <GreyVulpine> the 9000 series have a known issue with minecraft, you'd be very very lucky to get minecraft working on that.
#634 [11:43] <jhalse> yeah I downloaded this one 2 weeks ago from compaq/HP, and as far as I could tell it WAS the latest ATI driver.
#635 [11:43] * thenedman [thenedman@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#636 [11:44] <thenedman> how do i fix lagging
#637 [11:44] <jhalse> GreyVulpine, What is the 9000 series?
#638 [11:44] <GreyVulpine> The ATI 9000 series, which includes your 9200
#639 [11:44] <synpact> what do i do with this bat thing i cant copy it
#640 [11:45] <AureliusM> jhalse: Ah, GreyVulpine can help better here. (I am working through http://support.amd.com/us/Pages/AMDSupportHub.aspx - but could you try their driver autodetect in the meantime?)
#641 [11:46] <GreyVulpine> Unfortunately, there's not much we can do about the 9200, you can try updating the card's drivers from:
#642 [11:46] <GreyVulpine> http://h20000.www2.hp.com/bizsupport/TechSupport/SoftwareIndex.jsp?lang=en&cc=us&prodNameId=332800&prodTypeId=321957&prodSeriesId=332798&swLang=8&taskId=135&swEnvOID=228
#643 [11:46] <jhalse> GreyVulpine, Of course, now I see it Mobility Radeon 9200. Just for your info, Minecraft classic used to work on that pc - only after updating to premium it stopped.
#644 [11:46] <GreyVulpine> Yes. Minecraft classic and minecraft premium are two entirely different games, if you look at the backend
#645 [11:47] <AureliusM> GreyVulpine, thanks for helping out here, I could not find the "special" launcher for users which get hangs and no error messages
#646 [11:47] <GreyVulpine> The graphics engine for premium is vastly improved, requiring much more computational power
#647 [11:47] <GreyVulpine> For windows? http://pastebin.com/1knuj6Zh
#648 [11:48] <AureliusM> GreyVulpine, no, the on ewith illegal in the path
#649 [11:48] <GreyVulpine> Oh bleh, um. That would be on the bot that isn't here right now
#650 [11:49] <AureliusM> GreyVulpine, from a ftp server; the problem is several have had freezes that I could not resolve even after the usual java, batch, reinstall, driver check, etc.
#651 [11:49] <GreyVulpine> grepping logs, one moment
#652 [11:50] <AureliusM> jhalse: I tracked down what I think is your GPU, but AMD pass the buck to HP here: http://support.amd.com/us/kbarticles/Pages/737-28041SupportforATIMobility.aspx
#653 [11:52] <GreyVulpine> AureliusM - For synpact, most common causes for "Can't connect to minecraft.net" are, ! in windows username, invalid system date and time, Having java 7 instead of 6 installed, pirating minecraft, or having a firewall block minecraft
#654 [11:52] <Morrolan> pirating Minecraft == modified hosts file.
#655 [11:53] * GreyVulpine nods
#655 [11:53] <GreyVulpine> Also, the URL for the illegal launcher, is at: http://wug.me/minecraft/illegal/MCH-Launcher.jar
#656 [11:53] <GreyVulpine> But it appears Wug's machine that hosts it, is down
#657 [11:53] <Morrolan> The what?
#658 [11:54] * Morrolan reads up
#658 [11:54] * w [w@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#659 [11:54] <synpact> yeah probly the ! then
#660 [11:54] <GreyVulpine> synpact - Does your windows username happen to have a ! mark at the end?
#661 [11:54] <AureliusM> GreyVulpine, Ah yes, I forgot to check most of those! I should first get a dxdiag to get details first
#662 [11:55] <GreyVulpine> dxdiag wouldn't actually reveal any of them
#663 [11:55] <jhalse> Aurelius, "AMD driver autodetect" didn't do too well, after download and run, it only said "we were unable to find your product or OS". So AMD's passing the buck to HP seems like a dead end to me - already have their latest 12 year old ATI driver.
#664 [11:55] <GreyVulpine> If they're running windows, have them go to %userprofile%, that'll take them to their home directory, will show if they have a ! in their windows folder path
#665 [11:55] <GreyVulpine> If they don't, have them go to https://login.minecraft.net/?user=Meep&password=notreal&version=13
#666 [11:56] <GreyVulpine> That'll tell you if their computer can access the login server from the browser, if they can't, it usually points to a modified hosts file.

#673 [11:57] <GreyVulpine> jhalse - Best bet is to get another computer

#686 [11:59] <VoxelHead> win/!: Having exclamation marks or other special characters in your windows username can break minecraft. A workaround is available. Download and run the following file:

#710 [12:13] <mib_2585jh> Hi, i purchased the game minecraft recently over a pc running under ubuntu. I want to install i on the pc of my son, which has no internet connection. How to proceed now? Thanks Alex
#711 [12:13] <GreyVulpine> mib_2585jh - Do you have a USB stick, or some way to transfer files over to your son's computer?
#712 [12:14] <mib_2585jh> Yes I have a USB Stick.
#713 [12:15] * creep643 [creep643@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#714 [12:15] <GreyVulpine> Is your ubuntu machine the only one with an internet connection?
#715 [12:16] <mib_2585jh> Yes, because windows is not really save.
#716 [12:16] <GreyVulpine> Could you download minecraft.jar from minecraft.net/download and run it with the example command line from there. This will download minecraft's files onto the ubuntu machine when you log in.
#717 [12:17] * Thedatabeat [Thedatabeat@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#718 [12:17] <mib_2585jh> Yes I can do. But are these files no only suitable for Ubuntu/Linux ?
#719 [12:17] <GreyVulpine> What you're going to need to do, when minecraft downloads its files, is go to your home directory in ~/.minecraft/ and copy everything over to your USB drive. Also, download the minecraft.exe launcher from minecraft.net/download onto that USB stick. You'll then need to transfer that over to your son's Windows machine
#720 [12:17] <GreyVulpine> mib_2585jh - No. Minecraft runs under java.
#721 [12:18] <GreyVulpine> When you transfer the .minecraft folder over to your son's machine, it'll need to be copied into %appdata%/.minecraft/
#722 [12:19] <GreyVulpine> That should be all you need to do.
#723 [12:19] <mib_2585jh> Great ! Thank you for your help. Will try it soon. Alex
#724 [12:20] <creep643> i got a error message when running minecraft after patching modloader it was this: Exception in thread "main" java.lang.UnsupportedClassVersionError: bad version number in .class file
#725 [12:21] <GreyVulpine> We do not assist with modloader here. You'll want to post in the thread where you got modloader for help

#727 [12:22] <GreyVulpine> Thedatabeat - I'm betting you have java 7 installed on your computer. Java 7's been known to cause this problem. Uninstall 7, reinstall 6 instead.

#738 [12:47] <koleboy9> Hi there i just purchased the game minecraft and am trying to play but cant find any instruction and what keys do what ? and it is very slow moving i have java 32 bit
#739 [12:47] <Morrolan> Use a,s,d,f to move, left mouse button (keep it pressed) to break blocks, right mouse button to place blocks.
#740 [12:48] <Morrolan> e opens your inventory, esc opens the menu.
#741 [12:48] <AureliusM> koleboy9: w a s d keys are the movement keys, f is the fog change key on mine
#742 [12:48] <Morrolan> As for it being slow, decrease the render distance / fog distance in the video settings.
#743 [12:48] <Morrolan> wasd, not asdf, sorry.
#744 [12:48] <mib_2585jh> Hi I am back. Tried to run Minecraft under Ubuntu, but there is an error when running the "java -Xmx1024M -Xms512M -cp Minecraft.jar net.minecraft.LauncherFrame"
#745 [12:48] <Morrolan> And that error would be? ;)

#749 [12:50] <AureliusM> koleboy9: Minecraft will be slow on old machines, like mine. If yours is modern and still slow, check graphics card is set to advanced or "performance" for java
#750 [12:50] <GreyVulpine> mib_2585jh - Usually java. Reinstall it
#751 [12:51] <koleboy9> thank you , also it says once purchased it can be played offline does that mean it was intsalled directly as a program in my computer?
#752 [12:52] <AureliusM> koleboy9: Sort of. Once logged in for the first time to download all the game files, you can copy the whole /.minecraft/ folder toother machines

#763 [13:04] <AureliusM> sprog: I have not seen them in the last few hours
#764 [13:05] <mib_3ft4e3> when loading minecraft I get logged in and then get hit with a frozen screen that says "done loading"! Any thoughts on how to solve???
#765 [13:06] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - Operating system? Has minecraft worked before?
#766 [13:06] <mib_3ft4e3> only the free version. Windows 7
#767 [13:06] <GreyVulpine> The 'free' version?
#768 [13:07] * koulchilebaiz [koulchilebaiz@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#769 [13:07] <sprog> ok, maybe someone else can help me then. I'm getting the fatal error 4:null when I try to update minecraft. when I try to skip the update, it freezes at the end of the downloading bar. I have deleted my .bin file, my .minecraft file, completely re-installed the game, added minecraft to the exception list on my antivirus. In-browser, w/ firefox 8 it crashes
#770 [13:07] <sprog> the browser, and in ff 6, it freezes the tab.
#771 [13:07] <GreyVulpine> sprog - Using Avira, by any chance?
#772 [13:07] <GreyVulpine> or AVG?
#773 [13:08] <sprog> I was initially trying to get it to work on my mac, which runs Snow Leopard, and when that didn't work, I went to the other side (laptop dual boots mac and win 7) and had all of the same issues
#774 [13:08] <sprog> Sophos, on both mac and windows
#775 [13:08] <GreyVulpine> sprog - A fatal error (4): null usually points to a security software blocking minecraft from downloading its files.
#776 [13:09] <sprog> Yeah, I know that having antivirus on mac is dumb, but the computers are provided by the school and they put it on there.
#777 [13:09] <mib_3ft4e3> oops, nothing is working now. I'm not sure I ever got the thing actually downloaded but whether i try to play online or via download I get the same frozen screen suggesting "done loading"?
#778 [13:10] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - Does your windows username happen to contain a ! mark in it?
#779 [13:10] * Tanjoodo [Tanjoodo@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#780 [13:10] <sprog> I added minecraft to the the exception list for sophos, and on windows I added it to the exception list on the built in firewall just to be sure it wasn't getting blocked. However, I'm not familiar with sophos, and even having had this computer for 2.5 years, I'm still not sure adding to the exception list even works.
#781 [13:11] <mib_3ft4e3> No ! mark in username, windows or otherwise. I just paid for the game and haven't been able to play because its just frozen, for hours.
#782 [13:11] <koleboy9> hi again somehow the spacebar was held down to long ( my son :)) and i find myself up in the clouds and cant get down ??

#784 [13:11] <AureliusM> koleboy9: In Creative mode, use shift to move down
#785 [13:12] <GreyVulpine> sprog - I don't think I've had anybody with sophos come on here yet. Could you check sophos to see if it does any web detection stuff? If it does, try adding http://s3.amazonaws.com/* to the exception list
#786 [13:12] <AureliusM> koleboy9: hold down shift to move down hold down space to move up. Assuming no mods have been installed.
#787 [13:12] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - Are you absolutely sure about that, Could you go to your start menu, in the search bar, type in: %userprofile%
#788 [13:12] * Navaroar159 [Navaroar159@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#789 [13:12] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - Please confirm for me, that the folder it takes you to, does not have any ! symbols in it
#790 [13:13] <koleboy9> perfect thanxs
#791 [13:13] <sprog> hm...hadn't thought of that. I'll try it and let you know. Thanks!
#792 [13:14] <mib_3ft4e3> done, no ! mark, there are 14 other files where it took me though?
#793 [13:14] <Navaroar159> on my account, on1 computer i have all my world, and on the same account, different computer i have no worlds. how can i fix this?
#794 [13:14] <AureliusM> koleboy9: I forgot, you can also double tap the space bar to switch flight off, but then you'll fall
#795 [13:14] <AureliusM> koleboy9: ... fall fast.
#796 [13:15] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - When you went to %userprofile% -- you pressed enter, right?
#797 [13:15] <mib_3ft4e3> yes
#798 [13:15] <Navaroar159> on my account, on1 computer i have all my world, and on the same account, different computer i have no worlds. how can i fix this?
#799 [13:15] <AureliusM> Navaroar159: copy the /saves/ folder from one to the other, on a USB stick for example
#800 [13:15] <GreyVulpine> Navaroar159 - Copy the worlds from the computer's profile over.
#801 [13:16] <Navaroar159> ok, ty.
#802 [13:16] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - Alright. The other thing that can cause this, is Java 7. Could you check to see if you have java 7 installed?
#803 [13:16] <sprog> how do I go about adding it? It adds by programs or files from my computer, and that is a link to an xml file...is it saved to my computer somewhere?
#804 [13:16] <mib_3ft4e3> whats the best way to do that?
#805 [13:16] <GreyVulpine> sprog - In sophos? Check the control panel.
#806 [13:17] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - Depends on what you have access to. Got internet connections on both computers? Try emailing the files to yourself. Got a USB stick? Copy the files onto it, and walk it over to the other computer.
#807 [13:17] <mib_3ft4e3> Java says the latest version is 6?
#808 [13:18] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - Java 7 is out, but has been known to cause this problem. Java 6 is the recommended version to install.
#809 [13:18] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - Could you check your windows control panel -> programs and features, and see if java 7 is listed there?
#810 [13:18] <mib_3ft4e3> so we'll download 6 but how can I check to see which version is there now?
#811 [13:19] <mib_3ft4e3> got it
#812 [13:19] <mib_3ft4e3> checking
#813 [13:19] <mib_3ft4e3> java 6 is our version
#814 [13:20] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - Hmm, could you go to your start menu, in the search bar, type in: %appdata%
#815 [13:20] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - Find the .minecraft folder. delete everything inside except for 'saves', then try minecraft again?
#816 [13:22] <mib_3ft4e3> working on that...
#817 [13:23] <sprog> It's not letting me add it, or at least I still haven't figured out how to add it.
#818 [13:24] <GreyVulpine> sprog - Do you have some sort of "Web content scanner" for sophos enabled?
#819 [13:25] <sprog> nvm
#820 [13:25] <sprog> figured it out.
#821 [13:25] <sprog> I had to save the link as a file X_x

#823 [13:25] <GreyVulpine> Erm, huh?
#824 [13:26] <sprog> I'm on the mac side of my computer right now, and the only way it allows me to add an exception, is to browse and "open" a file on my computer, so it wouldn't just let me add the link you gave me earlier. So I right clicked and "save link as" so that it was a file in my downloads folder

#828 [13:28] <sprog> not that it worked. =.=
#829 [13:29] <AureliusM> sprog: no idea about macs and sophos but maybe "java" needs to be in the exception list?
#830 [13:29] <maxi_swe> My game is stuck it says its updating but its says its done what should i do
#831 [13:29] <GreyVulpine> maxi_swe - Has minecraft ever worked before?
#832 [13:29] <sprog> Does the fact that I haven't been able to update since the wolves were first released make a difference? Because after that I was having difficulties connecting to the server and a general lack of time to play the game.
#833 [13:30] <GreyVulpine> sprog - Hmm. Have you redownloaded the launcher itself since then?
#834 [13:30] <sprog> Yes. The last time I played was...either spring of last year, or early fall (August/September) of this year.
#835 [13:30] <sprog> Yes
#836 [13:30] <maxi_swe> hello
#837 [13:30] <maxi_swe> a
#838 [13:30] <sprog> And on the windows side, I hadn't downloaded it at all, but I got the exact same issues.
#839 [13:31] <mib_3ft4e3> seems like the game getting stuck is common, whats the deal with that?
#840 [13:31] <sprog> *hadn't downloaded it until this morning that is
#841 [13:31] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - It isn't that common, and usually has to deal with something on the computer itself

#847 [13:33] <mib_3ft4e3> logging in
#848 [13:33] <mib_3ft4e3> do you recommend online or download?
#849 [13:34] <sprog> I wish I had a way to access internet off campus. I'm beginning to wonder if it's something on my school's network. How else would it affect both sides of my computer when I had only ever played minecraft on the one side before?
#850 [13:34] <GreyVulpine> mib_3ft4e3 - Both will work
#851 [13:34] <GreyVulpine> sprog - It could be a network issue.
#852 [13:35] <sprog> Any idea how to go about checking that? Other than going off campus. Maybe talking to someone (how would I explain this particular problem I mean) or should I try an ethernet connection?

#1004 [14:42] <GreyVulpine> mib_dskwqf - As we're community-run support, we have no access to account information. That's something you'll need to take up with your bank or financial institution.
#1005 [14:42] <GreyVulpine> Make sure your bank has actually sent the payment to Mojang

#1029 [14:46] <agent_fro> can i get help with a mod issue i didn't have befor
#1030 [14:47] <GAGEYSMOOTHE> yeah thats exactly what happend
#1031 [14:47] <GreyVulpine> agent_fro - We do not assist with mods here.
#1032 [14:47] <mib_dskwqf> what email do i use to get account help
#1033 [14:47] <AureliusM> GAGEYSMOOTHE: Did you relaunch minecraft and find yourself back in the overworld? Where? at the spawn or just outside the portal?
#1034 [14:47] <GreyVulpine> mib_dskwqf - help@mojang.com
#1035 [14:47] <AureliusM> GAGEYSMOOTHE: And is there a hs_err_pid file on your PC?

#1039 [14:48] <GAGEYSMOOTHE> what is a hs_err_pid file?
#1040 [14:48] <AureliusM> GAGEYSMOOTHE: a file created when java crashes, should be whereever you launch minecraft from

#1045 [14:50] <mib_e75l9c> in terminal, it says, No such file or directory
#1046 [14:50] <AureliusM> GAGEYSMOOTHE: but use Windows explorer to look for it. Click Start and type C:\ and in the rightside white box type hs_err_pid
#1047 [14:50] <GreyVulpine> mib_e75l9c - Do you run any security software on that machine? Any antivirus or firewall software?
#1048 [14:50] <GreyVulpine> mib_1qaq00 - Try updating your video drivers.
#1049 [14:50] <mib_e75l9c> yes
#1050 [14:51] <mib_1qaq00> How do you update?
#1051 [14:51] <GreyVulpine> mib_e75l9c - Could you try turning it off to test, then run minecraft again?
#1052 [14:51] <mib_1qaq00> tries a lot of times
#1053 [14:51] <GreyVulpine> mib_1qaq00 - Go to your computer manufacturer's website, or your video card manufacturer's website, and download the latest drivers for your card from there.
#1054 [14:51] <mib_e75l9c> i guess...
#1055 [14:52] <AureliusM> GAGEYSMOOTHE: How are you launching minecraft? Try using minecraft.jar and a batch file, I will link to GreyVulpine's pastebin containing instructions if you need
#1056 [14:54] <GAGEYSMOOTHE> i llaunch it off the desktop

#1061 [14:55] <GreyVulpine> mr_fribble - You mean, upload a different skin? Go to the profile page at minecraft.net
#1062 [14:56] <mr_fribble> i will try that..
#1063 [14:56] <GreyVulpine> mib_e75l9c - What security software do you run?
#1064 [14:56] <GAGEYSMOOTHE> what will this accomplish for me?
#1065 [14:56] <AureliusM> GAGEYSMOOTHE: Also, what is your Windows operating system? Searching can be different in XP from Vista or Wndows 7.
#1066 [14:56] <mib_e75l9c> AVG
#1067 [14:57] <AureliusM> GAGEYSMOOTHE: It should keep th efull error log visible when minecraft crashes
#1068 [14:57] <mr_fribble> also, i am having trouble downloading - i paid for the game but it doesnt seem to download and when i play in browser it 'crashes'
#1069 [14:57] <AureliusM> GAGEYSMOOTHE: We need the full error log in case there are problems with graphics drivers for example
#1070 [14:57] <GreyVulpine> mib_e75l9c - Are you running the launcher from minecraft.net/download?
#1071 [14:58] <GreyVulpine> mib_e75l9c - Or the inbrowser client at minecraft.net?
#1072 [14:58] <GAGEYSMOOTHE> ok so do you want infor from this log after i set it up?
#1073 [14:58] <AureliusM> GAGEYSMOOTHE: Yes, if it crashes again.
#1074 [14:58] <GreyVulpine> mr_fribble - Crashes how? Do you get any error messages?
#1075 [14:58] <mr_fribble> yes... let me get more info to be more specific
#1076 [14:58] <GAGEYSMOOTHE> okayyy
#1077 [14:58] <GreyVulpine> mr_fribble - Please upload it to pastebin.com if it's a long error report.
#1078 [14:59] <mib_e75l9c> like do you mean, playing it "in browser" or downloaded? like are you asking which one i play?
#1079 [14:59] <AureliusM> GAGEYSMOOTHE: So, follow those GreyVulpine instructions, and try the Nether portal again, and error messages should appear in the black command window
#1080 [14:59] <GreyVulpine> mib_e75l9c - How do you launch minecraft? Do you use minecraft.net/play/ or do you click on an icon on your dock?

#1086 [15:01] <GreyVulpine> With minecraft.app that you got from minecraft.net/download?
#1087 [15:02] <mib_e75l9c> yes i believe so
#1088 [15:03] <GreyVulpine> Could you try the inbrowser client at minecraft.net/play
#1089 [15:03] <GreyVulpine> See if it does the same thing?

#1106 [15:08] <mr_fribble> i then click on minecraft.exe under minecraft for windows then i either press run or save to desktop then the page opens to the login but after a few minutes of play i get a message out of memory
#1107 [15:08] <mib_e75l9c> it just did the same thing except it didn't give me the choice of updating
#1108 [15:08] <GreyVulpine> derpherp - No, but if you log in with an account, the login token for all other accounts will be invalidated.
#1109 [15:08] <mr_fribble> also... it never shows up under programs on my comuter so it doesn't seem to download
#1110 [15:08] <derpherp> ok thanks
#1111 [15:08] <GreyVulpine> mr_fribble - What version of windows are you on?
#1112 [15:08] <mr_fribble> vista
#1113 [15:08] <GreyVulpine> mr_fribble - 32 or 64 bit?
#1114 [15:09] <derpherp> i have another question: my minecraft when i open the screen with alll the updat info is blank
#1115 [15:09] <mr_fribble> umm .. how do i check that?
#1116 [15:09] <derpherp> and when i try to log in it gives me a null error
#1117 [15:09] <GreyVulpine> mr_fribble - Go to your start menu, right click on "Computer" and go to properties. Look at System Type
#1118 [15:09] <GreyVulpine> derpherp - Usually is because of security software (Avira and AVG are known to cause this)
#1119 [15:10] <derpherp> ok
#1120 [15:10] <mr_fribble> it is 32
#1121 [15:10] <derpherp> im pretty sure its not that
#1122 [15:10] <derpherp> but if it was how would i fix it?
#1123 [15:10] * rumpler [rumpler@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1124 [15:11] <GreyVulpine> mr_fribble - Then all you can do is try turning down some of the graphics options in minecraft to lower the amount of RAM minecraft takes up. Try turning the render distance down from far to normal or below
#1125 [15:11] <mib_e75l9c> It doesn't work
#1126 [15:11] <GreyVulpine> derpherp - Either by adding http://s3.amazonaws.com/* to the web/link checker's exceptions list, or by configuring traffic from java through

#1142 [15:13] <GreyVulpine> derpherp - Java 7's been known to cause that as well
#1143 [15:14] <mr_fribble> thank you.. i will try that for the error messages, but do you know why it doesn't seem to download to my computer?
#1144 [15:14] <derpherp> GreyVulpine: not sure... how do i check?
#1145 [15:14] <GreyVulpine> derpherp - operating system?
#1146 [15:14] <derpherp> for the java version
#1147 [15:14] <AureliusM> rumpler: I do not know why, only have seen many people have no luck with them on getsatisfaction. In fact oftenntimes, PayPal is the way that works best.
#1148 [15:14] <derpherp> my os is
#1149 [15:14] <GreyVulpine> derpherp - What operating system are you on?
#1150 [15:14] <derpherp> windows 7
#1151 [15:14] <mib_e75l9c> Hello???????????????
#1152 [15:15] <GreyVulpine> derpherp - Go to your start menu -> control panel -> programs and features -> look to see if you have java 7 in there.
#1153 [15:15] <derpherp> i do have java 7
#1154 [15:15] <rumpler> well paypal is the way im trying
#1155 [15:15] <mib_e75l9c> I am still here!
#1156 [15:15] <GreyVulpine> derpherp - Uninstall java 7, reinstall 6
#1157 [15:15] <GreyVulpine> ?? java
#1158 [15:15] <VoxelHead> java: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/jre-6u30-download-1377142.html
#1159 [15:16] <derpherp> ok thanks
#1160 [15:16] <rumpler> and ive asked them for help a whole bunch of times and well there help center just isnt good
#1161 [15:16] <AureliusM> rumpler: I have used both a prepaid VISA card (not a gift card) and a real VISA credit card and each one worked. Both PayPal and moneybookers.
#1162 [15:16] <GreyVulpine> mib_e75l9c - I don't know what else to tell you.
#1163 [15:17] <GreyVulpine> mib_e75l9c - Check to see if you have all the latest updates for your computer from apple software update.
#1164 [15:17] <koleboy9> also when smashing blocks one hit and their gone , arent you supposed to hit it several times before it breaks ?? cause i cant collect wood at all and ive taken down many trees
#1165 [15:17] <rumpler> so just in case is there any posible reason why it wont work for me
#1166 [15:17] * Evixion [Evixion@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1167 [15:17] <rumpler> not related to paypal
#1168 [15:17] <AureliusM> koleboy9: Sounds like Creative mode.
#1169 [15:17] <GreyVulpine> ?? prepaid
#1170 [15:17] <mib_e75l9c> how do i do that?
#1171 [15:17] <VoxelHead> prepaid: Prepaid or gift credit cards will generally not work for purchasing Minecraft, because their fraud prevention klobbers international transactions.
#1172 [15:17] <koleboy9> whats the diferences between creative and others ?
#1173 [15:18] <GreyVulpine> mib_e75l9c - Check the apple icon in the upper left.
#1174 [15:18] <AureliusM> koleboy9: When you create a new world you choose the world type: Creative or Survival, or I think Hardcore. I'll check now
#1175 [15:18] <GreyVulpine> You're right AureliusM.
#1176 [15:18] <mib_e75l9c> ok
#1177 [15:18] <koleboy9> yes you do i did choose creative
#1178 [15:19] <AureliusM> koleboy9: See http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Creative_(Game_Mode) and http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Category:Game_modes

#1185 [15:20] <GreyVulpine> lara - With?
#1186 [15:21] <lara> See,i found out the version i saw on the forums that i loved
#1187 [15:21] <mib_e75l9c> can't do it right now... i will stay on here and ask anything else when I can
#1188 [15:21] <lara> Which was the monster killing version and stuff
#1189 [15:21] <lara> Was PTP.
#1190 [15:21] <GreyVulpine> lara - Right, the premium, paid for version
#1191 [15:21] <lara> But then i googled some stuff
#1192 [15:21] <lara> And it got me confused
#1193 [15:21] <lara> Is there any way
#1194 [15:21] <lara> Any way to play a lighter version
#1195 [15:21] <GreyVulpine> lara - To get it for free? No. Not legally
#1196 [15:21] <lara> for free and single player?
#1197 [15:21] <GreyVulpine> lara - There is the outdated classic version, available on the website at minecraft.net, but that's creative only, no monsters or crafting
#1198 [15:22] <lara> Yeah i played that one
#1199 [15:22] <GreyVulpine> Beyond that, there's no other version
#1200 [15:22] <lara> Oh well.. how much does the paid one cost?
#1201 [15:22] <GreyVulpine> 20 euros, or about 27 dollars USD
#1202 [15:22] <lara> Wewt.
#1203 [15:23] * AureliusM thinks the PC Gamer demo version is still availabe
#1203 [15:23] <lara> Thank you.
#1204 [15:23] <GreyVulpine> Yeah, but that's time-locked to 90 minutes
#1205 [15:24] <AureliusM> I know, but if they want to try before they buy...
#1206 [15:24] <lara> Where can i download it?
#1207 [15:24] <GreyVulpine> ?? demo
#1208 [15:24] <VoxelHead> demo: Minecraft now has a demo available. PCGamer's article here: http://www.pcgamer.com/2011/04/19/download-the-minecraft-demo/ gives the details. In short, it has all the tools of Minecraft survival, and 'locks' itself after 90 minutes.
#1209 [15:24] <VoxelHead> demo: The Direct Download link is available here: http://is.gd/l507ow
#1210 [15:24] <GreyVulpine> It is quite out of date, with not all of the new features of 1.0.0
#1211 [15:24] <GreyVulpine> It's still running beta 1.5 features
#1212 [15:24] * mib_igaape [mib_igaape@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1213 [15:24] <lara> Atleast it's better than Classic version.
#1214 [15:25] <lara> I kinda don't like that classic version, i feel it's not full enough and end up talking to trees out of boredom.
#1215 [15:25] <lara> Thank you again.
#1216 [15:25] <mib_igaape> how long does it takes for mojang to replay to a email
#1217 [15:26] <WhereIsMySpoon> depends how busy they are
#1218 [15:26] <WhereIsMySpoon> id say at least a few days
#1219 [15:26] <GreyVulpine> mib_igaape - We have no ETA really, nobody ever tells us
#1220 [15:26] <AureliusM> lara: if you think classic is limited try Minicraft, see http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minicraft
#1221 [15:26] <mib_igaape> i need to be replyed right now
#1222 [15:26] <lara> Minicraft?
#1223 [15:27] <Eddie> Minicraft, a game by Notch for the Ludum Dare competition.
#1224 [15:27] <mib_igaape> what do i do
#1225 [15:27] <WhereIsMySpoon> mib_igaape that istn going to happen
#1226 [15:27] <WhereIsMySpoon> you'll just need to wait
#1227 [15:27] <lara> If you had to relate it to a version of Minecraft
#1228 [15:27] <lara> What version would it be?
#1229 [15:28] <GreyVulpine> lara - 2d classic
#1230 [15:28] <lara> Thank you! after the 90 minutes have passed, i'll go play that Minicraft thing.. i'll see if i buy it after that.
#1231 [15:28] <WhereIsMySpoon> may as well play terarria
#1232 [15:28] <lara> Terraria?
#1233 [15:28] <AureliusM> lara: Minicraft is far too simple makes Classic look advanced.
#1234 [15:28] <WhereIsMySpoon> its like mc but with a load of bosses and monsters, items, armor etc
#1235 [15:29] <WhereIsMySpoon> and its 2d
#1236 [15:29] <WhereIsMySpoon> side scrolling
#1237 [15:29] <lara> Then nevermind.
#1238 [15:29] <mib_igaape> i pay $86.23 for my permium account
#1239 [15:29] <AureliusM> lara: ignore my last, I got confused about Minicraft
#1240 [15:29] <WhereIsMySpoon> wat
#1241 [15:29] <WhereIsMySpoon> how did you do that
#1242 [15:29] <mib_igaape> yes $86.23
#1243 [15:29] <lara> I checked the wiki and it's wizard killing and stuff in minicraft.

#1254 [15:30] <lara> I'll check Terraria after.
#1255 [15:30] <lara> This is just so confusing for me..
#1256 [15:30] <WhereIsMySpoon> terarria isnt free
#1257 [15:30] <WhereIsMySpoon> its a different game made by different people
#1258 [15:30] <ineedhelp> i just got mo creatures the mod and it dosent work
#1259 [15:30] <GreyVulpine> lara - If you kinda like creative, but want to try out premium, use the demo

#1261 [15:31] <VoxelHead> ineedhelp: (mods) This channel is not a venue for mod support, or support for modded servers, as it is impossible for anybody to know every combination of mods out there, this channel does not assist with unofficial third-party modded content.

#1263 [15:31] <lara> Yeah, i will.
#1264 [15:31] <GreyVulpine> lara - If you still like the demo, the full, paid for version is only 27 USD
#1265 [15:31] <mib_igaape> and my account doesent wrock
#1266 [15:31] <lara> The thing is Grey, in my country 27 USD isn't that little, so i have to see if i really can spend 27 USD on it or not after i think about it.
#1267 [15:31] <GreyVulpine> mib_igaape - As it's the weekend, Mojang isn't in the office right now, you'll need to wait until Monday at the very least to get a reply
#1268 [15:32] <GreyVulpine> mib_igaape - Be aware that many people besides you also require help, so a little patience is necessary
#1269 [15:33] <WhereIsMySpoon> why do all the new people use mibbi

#1403 [16:08] <WugPhone> Fffff
#1404 [16:08] <eloscuro> and no way to realeese the email adress, by deleting the account for example?
#1405 [16:08] <TheNytangel> eloscuro: can't
#1406 [16:09] <GreyVulpine> eloscuro - Could you tell us exactly why you want to change the email address?
#1407 [16:09] <TheNytangel> He murdered 5 people
#1408 [16:09] <TheNytangel> Needs a new identity
#1409 [16:09] <EnigmaClueless> Is there any server connection issues with the current Minecraft version?
#1410 [16:09] <eloscuro> I really want to change my account name
#1411 [16:09] <GreyVulpine> EnigmaClueless - With 1.0.0, yes, with 1.0.1, no
#1412 [16:09] <eloscuro> but i guess that's not possible so i want to keep the same email adress for my new account name
#1413 [16:09] <GreyVulpine> eloscuro - No possible way to do that right now, unless you want to purchase a new account
#1414 [16:10] <GreyVulpine> You can register multiple accounts under one username
#1415 [16:10] <GreyVulpine> er, email
#1416 [16:10] <EnigmaClueless> Has 1.0.1 been released? My launcher hasen't automatically updated.
#1417 [16:10] <TheNytangel> GreyVulpine: do you like SBBQs?
#1418 [16:10] <AureliusM> OH: I found iron within 2 minutes from your seed: 5738823960488309968 - iron at x 100 z 234 just dig down 2 deep in the pool. Maybe you need to spelunk caves closer to the surface to find more iron.
#1419 [16:10] <eloscuro> it says i can't when i try to
#1420 [16:10] <TheNytangel> EnigmaClueless: server is 1.0.1
#1421 [16:10] <GreyVulpine> EnigmaClueless - 1.0.1 is a server version only
#1422 [16:10] <eloscuro> it says "Email already in use!"
#1423 [16:11] <EnigmaClueless> Okay, thanks.

#1474 [17:06] <OH> ohhh needs fulll hunger?
#1475 [17:06] <OH> yup healing now
#1476 [17:06] <AureliusM> OH: that seed you gave me has a village near the spawn with wheat growing
#1477 [17:06] <OH> yea i know
#1478 [17:06] <OH> what do i do with them
#1479 [17:06] <DaggaRoosta> Howdy y'all. Anyone in the mood to answer a n00b question?
#1480 [17:06] <AureliusM> OH: put three wheat in a row on a crafting bench makes bread
#1481 [17:07] <OH> ah ok
#1482 [17:07] <OH> thanks
#1483 [17:07] <AureliusM> OH: there's a crafting bench in one of the houses too!
#1484 [17:07] <TheNytangel> DaggaRoosta: and the question is
#1485 [17:07] <AureliusM> OH: and plenty of iron on the surface in the caves around
#1486 [17:08] <DaggaRoosta> I'm trying to play on an older laptop, one where in order to get the game to play I have to turn hardware acceleration down
#1487 [17:08] <OH> caves r scary
#1488 [17:08] <OH> i dig myself
#1489 [17:08] <DaggaRoosta> and optifine and other FPS mods are making the game crash. I take it that's because I have to turn down hardware acceleration?
#1490 [17:09] <OH> but AureliusM, i took a couple steps up and dug on the side of my cave that i dug
#1491 [17:09] <OH> i did find iron
#1492 [17:09] * charmander [charmander@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1493 [17:09] <OH> i was too deep for iron i guess
#1494 [17:10] <DaggaRoosta> in other words, does anyone know if optifine, etc. require full hardware acceleration to work?
#1495 [17:10] * Zemedelphos [Zemedelphos@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1496 [17:11] <AureliusM> DaggaRoosta: it should not crash with optifine, but maybe the other mods are the cause. I'm not sure but I do not think Optifine needs hardware cceleration
#1497 [17:11] <AureliusM> DaggaRoosta: what graphics card do you have?
#1498 [17:11] * mudpit [mudpit@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1499 [17:12] <DaggaRoosta> I'm only installing one mod at a time, and none of them are working. My "graphics card" is onboard Intel 965 family.
#1500 [17:12] <TheNytangel> Integrated..
#1501 [17:12] <mudpit> i cannot run minecraft. It says cannot get input stream for lwgjl_applet.jar.pack
#1502 [17:12] <mudpit> plz help
#1503 [17:13] <DaggaRoosta> I figured out from trial and error that the base game will only play if I turn hardware acceleration down; otherwise I get a accelerated Open GL error.
#1504 [17:13] <mudpit> how do i do that
#1505 [17:13] <AureliusM> DaggaRoosta: you mean in Minecraft video options you turn Advanced OpenGL to OFF? Or in the display adapter control panel?
#1506 [17:13] <TheNytangel> mudpit: they didn't tell you to do anything...
#1507 [17:14] * mib_f7hqn2 [mib_f7hqn2@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1508 [17:14] <mudpit> ...
#1509 [17:14] <DaggaRoosta> No, sorry for being unclear; in the display properties in WinXP, I'm turning HA down to the point where DirectDraw and Direct3D are disabled.
#1510 [17:15] <DaggaRoosta> Then the game will work...at about 9 FPS.
#1511 [17:15] <OH> i made a pond next to myy house on top of the mountain!!! I OWNNNNN yesss
#1512 [17:16] <DaggaRoosta> It'd be great to get better FPS via mods but all of them are giving me blackscreen. I'm thinking it's due to the HA settings, but I'd like to be sure.
#1513 [17:16] <OH> can i fish in it
#1514 [17:17] <AureliusM> DaggaRoosta: I see, 9 FPS with distance far? I only get 20 with Normal, Fast graphics and I have a Nvidia 6500. It's likely you won't get better. Have the helpers here checked your drivers are up to date even though it's Intel integrated?
#1515 [17:17] * BenMcLean [BenMcLean@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1516 [17:17] <BenMcLean> hey guise
#1517 [17:17] <BenMcLean> I am trying to setup a minecraft server and get no signal
#1518 [17:17] <DaggaRoosta> Naw unfortunately, 9 FPS with Normal and all the other settings turned down.
#1519 [17:17] <AureliusM> mudpit: have you reinatlled Java 6?
#1520 [17:18] <BenMcLean> I have made an exception to the firewall on my local machine, setup port forwarding on the router and made a dns subdomain to point to this IP
#1521 [17:18] <mudpit> yeah, i installed the latest version of java and the 64bit java
#1522 [17:18] <OH> how do i see fps
#1523 [17:18] <BenMcLean> but I get no signal on YouGetSignal. Any suggestions?
#1524 [17:18] <DaggaRoosta> I updated my Intel drivers, and Java to 1.7. That helped a little. But I see with optifine that people can get 3X FPS and I start drooling uncontrollably.
#1525 [17:18] <BenMcLean> BTW we're on comcast cable internet and they say servers are ok
#1526 [17:18] <AureliusM> DaggaRoosta: I'm looking for the Intel 965 specs now
#1527 [17:19] <GreyVulpine> 965s kinda suck

#1533 [17:20] <OH> how do i see fps
#1534 [17:20] <GreyVulpine> BenMcLean - Walk us through your network setup, give us IPs. What's the ip address of your server/
#1535 [17:20] <OH> nvm
#1536 [17:20] <GreyVulpine> OH - Press F3
#1537 [17:20] * r0w [r0w@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1538 [17:20] <OH> i have 40 fps with ati radeon 5650
#1539 [17:21] <DaggaRoosta> I'm not expecting the world here, of course. It's not a good machine for Minecraft. But it's BORDERLINE playable, a little more FPS boost and I'm good. Any tips beyond driver and Java upgrades would be appreciated.
#1540 [17:21] <GreyVulpine> DaggaRoosta - turning down some of the video options in minecraft to minimum?
#1541 [17:22] <DaggaRoosta> Yup, done that. I can get a decent FPS by turning the render settings all the way down, but then I can't see anything beyond a few paces.
#1542 [17:22] <BenMcLean> GreyVulpine, mclean.us.to
#1543 [17:22] <BenMcLean> is the subdomain
#1544 [17:23] <BenMcLean> points to 69.242.133.252 our public IP
#1545 [17:23] <GreyVulpine> Right, okay..
#1546 [17:23] <BenMcLean> inside that is 192.168.0.18, the local IP for the machine I am on
#1547 [17:23] <BenMcLean> it runs the minecraft server
#1548 [17:23] <AureliusM> DaggaRoosta: not sure if this helps, opengl compatibility list of intel 965 : http://www.intel.com/support/graphics/sb/cs-010479.htm
#1549 [17:24] <GreyVulpine> BenMcLean - Could I get a screenshot of the router's status page at 192.168.0.1, or make sure the WAN ip there matches your 69.242.133.252 address?
#1550 [17:24] <BenMcLean> I first tried the default minecraft port 25565 but when that didn't work, I tried port 80 which is what I'm on now
#1551 [17:24] <DaggaRoosta> Thanks AureliusM, I'll check it out. You guys are the bee's knees for volunteering your time, thanks.

#1580 [17:49] <BenMcLean> or you're grown up, whichever happens first.
#1581 [17:50] <BenMcLean> because the web is downloading stuff. you're downloading stuff by reading what I'm typing right now.
#1582 [17:50] <BenMcLean> you're downloading these words.

#1588 [17:52] * BenMcLean is having really bad server issues.
#1588 [17:52] <TM> ben is your server still not working?
#1589 [17:53] <BenMcLean> TM, no changes have occured
#1590 [17:53] <TM> so your using a cisco router it looked like?
#1591 [17:53] <BenMcLean> only suggestions I've gotten have been to try things I've already tried
#1592 [17:53] <TM> can you access the server on your local network?
#1593 [17:53] <BenMcLean> My router is a ZOOM model 5350 series 192 if that means anything to you
#1594 [17:54] <BenMcLean> TM, yes I can access the server inside the LAN. my little bros and i have been making castles and railroads and crap
#1595 [17:54] * onwrd [onwrd@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1596 [17:55] <BenMcLean> i bought them minecraft for christmas
#1597 [17:55] <BenMcLean> it was like one of those advertisements
#1598 [17:55] <BenMcLean> "Give the gift of Minecraft this holiday season. Because scruffy looking Swedish guys with odd hats deserve your moneys."
#1599 [17:56] <BenMcLean> anyways, so that we can paly when i'm at university, we need internet server setup now, not just lan server :)
#1600 [17:57] <TM> right..ok well just wanted to make sure the server itself was setup correctly
#1601 [17:57] <BenMcLean> university IT people don't seem to comprehend the idea that in your apartment, it's reasonable that you might wanna run a small server and get around their firewall cause that's where you live.
#1602 [17:57] <TM> which appears it is
#1603 [17:57] <BenMcLean> so anyways i would be setting this up on my end at college except for that, so it has to be on their end (here)
#1604 [17:58] <TM> and does your router have a web administration panel?
#1605 [17:58] <BenMcLean> i can understand having strict filtering and firewall rules and whatever other junk they think they need on a college campus in the college buildings but not in the dorms. not where people live
#1606 [17:58] <BenMcLean> TM, yeah, been in it, setup port forwarding
#1607 [17:58] <BenMcLean> even got a freeDNS subdomain to point to us
#1608 [17:59] <TM> try setting up your server under the DMZ zone..for testing purposes
#1609 [17:59] <BenMcLean> what's DMZ ZONE?
#1610 [18:00] <TM> its where it opens all ports to a desigated IP on your internal network
#1611 [18:00] <TM> that will just tell us if then the port forward is incorrect

#1792 [20:09] <Guywhoneedshelp> Version 6 Update 30
#1793 [20:10] <AureliusM> Guywhoneedshelp: and the minecraft.jar came from minecraft.net/download ?
#1794 [20:11] <Guywhoneedshelp> Yes, but then I modded it O.o
#1795 [20:11] <AureliusM> Guywhoneedshelp: then you need to do Options Force Update to remove the mod changes
#1796 [20:11] <AureliusM> ??> Guywhoneedshelp forceupdate
#1797 [20:12] <VoxelHead> Guywhoneedshelp: (forceupdate) You may need to reinstall the locally installed files that Minecraft puts into place.
#1798 [20:12] <VoxelHead> Guywhoneedshelp: (forceupdate) To do so, start Minecraft, press 'Options' (above the 'Login' button), Press 'Force update!', then press 'Done', and login to Minecraft.
#1799 [20:12] <Guywhoneedshelp> :( So the mods are the problem? Ive been able to play with them before
#1800 [20:13] <AureliusM> ??> Guywhoneedshelp mods
#1801 [20:13] <VoxelHead> Guywhoneedshelp: (mods) This channel is not a venue for mod support, or support for modded servers, as it is impossible for anybody to know every combination of mods out there, this channel does not assist with unofficial third-party modded content.
#1802 [20:13] <VoxelHead> Guywhoneedshelp: (mods) For single player mods, contact the mod's creator or try http://tiny.cc/modinstall for general installation instructions. For bukkit help, use #bukkit; you can also try using Google to search for a mod's installation instructions.
#1803 [20:13] <AureliusM> Guywhoneedshelp: after a force update you try to re-apply the mod and see it works, bust best is to go to the forum for that mod
#1804 [20:13] <AureliusM> Guywhoneedshelp: ignore my typos
#1805 [20:14] <Guywhoneedshelp> Hmm, question
#1806 [20:14] * frogzilla [frogzilla@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1807 [20:15] <AureliusM> Guywhoneedshelp: fire away, I mean I use Optifine mod and have no problems, but also run vanilla unmodded when investigating bugs.
#1808 [20:15] <Guywhoneedshelp> I installed these mods before I even opened up the game (I uninstalled the game in the first place cause one of the mods I DLed screwed it up) Should I play the game then install mods?
#1809 [20:16] <AureliusM> Guywhoneedshelp: but the best person to support crashes with a modded minecraft is the mod author
#1810 [20:17] <Guywhoneedshelp> I mean would installing a mod prior to even opening up the game effect what happened?
#1811 [20:17] <AureliusM> Guywhoneedshelp: if it was me, I would first play the vanilla minecraft (unmodded) for a while to make sure there are no memory or video card problems, and then mod it. Better is to keep two minecraft folders, one for vanilla, the other for modded.
#1812 [20:18] <Guywhoneedshelp> Alright, thx.
#1813 [20:18] <AureliusM> Guywhoneedshelp: I always check minecraft freshly installed from minecraft.net before I do anything else.

#1838 [20:28] <gakins> Right.. says there isn't any refund because most issues can be resolved. However, unless I can get a workaround for this issue, I think a refund is warranted
#1839 [20:28] <GreyVulpine> gakins - As we're community-run support, we can do nothing about account issues here. You can try emailing mojang directly at help@mojang.com, but they've already clearly stated their refund policy
#1840 [20:29] <AureliusM> gakins: please give us your computer specs, maybe we can find a video card driver update that solves the problem
#1841 [20:29] <gakins> Thanks. I understand that refund.. but the policy also states most issues can be resolved, and it appears I am an exception

#1938 [21:38] <AureliusM> dragovi: ah, ok, wait, you'll need to use a batch file with that little memory
#1939 [21:39] <dragovi> i'm getting an imac however so you won't see me here later
#1940 [21:39] <AureliusM> dragovi: To use less memory: http://pastebin.com/gDRbA6g2
#1941 [21:39] <dragovi> in a few months
#1942 [21:39] <dragovi> wait
#1943 [21:39] <dragovi> so what does it do?
#1944 [21:39] <dragovi> can i copy the dxdiag stats?
#1945 [21:40] <dragovi> some how?
#1946 [21:40] <AureliusM> dragovi: if you only have 894 MB of RAM, Java will use all of that and try to grab more, causing "disk thrashing"
#1947 [21:40] <dragovi> oh
#1948 [21:40] <dragovi> what is that?
#1949 [21:40] <AureliusM> ??> dragovi dxdiag
#1950 [21:40] <dragovi> 8bitbin!
#1951 [21:40] <dragovi> ben
#1952 [21:41] <dragovi> ok how do i copy the dxdiag stats?
#1953 [21:41] <AureliusM> dragovi; Do a dxdiag and paste the results in a pastebin, instructions follow from VoxelHead:
#1954 [21:41] <AureliusM> ??> dragovi pastebin
#1955 [21:41] <VoxelHead> dragovi: (pastebin) Pastebin is a service run at http://www.pastebin.com/ which facilitates the sharing of information without flooding IRC channels. Paste your text there, click 'Submit', and give us the URL the site takes you to, and we can see what you have pasted.
#1956 [21:41] <dragovi> but I can't copy my dxdiag stats!

#1958 [21:42] <dragovi> nvm
#1959 [21:42] <dragovi> wait
#1960 [21:42] <flash1133> hey GreyVulpine
#1961 [21:42] <GreyVulpine> Yes?
#1962 [21:42] <AureliusM> dragovi: to copy the text from the dxdiag.txt log file, open the file in Notepad, click Edit select all, and click copy
#1963 [21:42] <dragovi> wait
#1964 [21:43] <dragovi> doing it now
#1965 [21:43] <flash1133> what is the name of the program you use to remote access someones computer again?
#1966 [21:43] <GreyVulpine> teamviweer
#1967 [21:43] <GreyVulpine> er, teamviewer, even
#1968 [21:43] <flash1133> ok thanks
#1969 [21:44] <dragovi> http://pastebin.com/1nAwmEXz
#1970 [21:44] * armed [armed@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1971 [21:45] <AureliusM> dragovi: ok, that dxdiag has Vista and only 894 physical RAM, that's very low, but it's possible to work with
#1972 [21:46] <AureliusM> dragovi: first, have you disabled the Aero feature of Vista?
#1973 [21:46] <dragovi> oh, no, i thought it would fck up my colours
#1974 [21:46] <AureliusM> dragovi: also first, follow GreyVulpine's instructions here: http://pastebin.com/gDRbA6g2
#1975 [21:47] <AureliusM> dragovi: that will set up a batch file that runs minecraft with only 256 MB heap space, which is better than the default 1024 MB
#1976 [21:47] <dragovi> but then won't it run slower?
#1977 [21:48] <GreyVulpine> Wouldn't say "better", but it'll try to launch minecraft with less heap, on computers that don't have much RAM to start with.
#1978 [21:48] <AureliusM> dragovi: I had Vista with twice your RAM and had great problems, I disabled Aero as that saved 256 MB
#1979 [21:48] <dragovi> Oh wowo
#1980 [21:48] <dragovi> wow*
#1981 [21:48] <dragovi> how are the colours though?
#1982 [21:48] <AureliusM> dragovi: also, you will need to close all unneeded applications
#1983 [21:48] * Harryhy [Harryhy@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1984 [21:49] <AureliusM> dragovi: colours stay the same at 32 bit - do not change colour or resolution,
#1985 [21:49] <GreyVulpine> Colours are fine. Aero just makes things prettier, at the cost of RAM and system resources
#1986 [21:49] <dragovi> oh i see
#1987 [21:49] <AureliusM> dragovi: first do the batch file solution, later we'll try to disable Aero if it's still choppy
#1988 [21:49] <dragovi> what do you mean by "prettier"?
#1989 [21:51] <AureliusM> dragovi: here's what I did: disabled Aero; disabled most of the bloatware HP put on their machines; switched to Classic theme, disabled desktop animations; close all browsers before launching minecraft.
#1990 [21:51] <dragovi> I can't do the batch file solution, i have 2 or 3 mods!
#1991 [21:51] <dragovi> i disabled all the bloatware
#1992 [21:51] <AureliusM> dragovi: you need to forceupdate first then. Or live with the choppiness. Are the mods HD texture packs?
#1993 [21:52] <GreyVulpine> The batch file will run minecraft with mods, it won't touch them
#1994 [21:52] * tyteen4a03 [tyteen4a03@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#1995 [21:52] <dragovi> nope, humans+ and weapons
#1996 [21:52] <AureliusM> dragovi: ah yes, forget my last, GreyVulpine's right I forgot
#1997 [21:52] <dragovi> so i guess disabling Aero is my only hope?
#1998 [21:53] <GreyVulpine> Also, aero does stuff like this: http://res1.windows.microsoft.com/resbox/en/Windows%20Vista/main/d06a7aed-cff4-443c-aac1-a602c9fa9e92_16.png
#1999 [21:53] <GreyVulpine> See the title bar's slight transparency with aero.
#2000 [21:53] <AureliusM> dragovi: have you downloaded minecraft.jar as specified in that pastebin ?
#2001 [21:53] <dragovi> i saw the aero difference
#2002 [21:54] <dragovi> ok thanks for your help guys, I'll disable aero and do other stuff to improve the comps performance.
#2003 [21:54] <dragovi> Bye!

#2046 [22:44] * shawn [shawn@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#2047 [22:44] <GreyVulpine> Because moneybookers is what Mojang uses to process credit card payments. You can choose from other services like Paypal, if you have that
#2048 [22:45] <jessejame> oh. do i have to have money in my paypal account to do that or can i pay with my visa still?
#2049 [22:45] <GreyVulpine> Paypal can process credit cards as well, or you can tie in a bank account, or use a paypal balance
#2050 [22:46] <jessejame> okay. thanks a lot!
#2051 [22:46] <jessejame> take it easy!
#2052 [22:47] <jessejame> why does paypal change it to euros?
#2053 [22:48] <GreyVulpine> Because Minecraft is in euros. Paypal does the conversion for you to your native currency transparently.

#2063 [23:43] <GreyVulpine> What happens when you run minecraft?
#2064 [23:43] <Col_Sera_> Hold on I will pull it up and copy it.
#2065 [23:44] <GreyVulpine> If you get a long error message, please post it at www.pastebin.cmo
#2066 [23:44] <GreyVulpine> com*
#2067 [23:44] <Col_Sera_> Ok
#2068 [23:44] <Col_Sera_> I will just post the important part
#2069 [23:44] <Col_Sera_> Minecraft was unable to start because it failed to find an accelerated OpenGL mode. This can usually be fixed by updating the video card drivers.
#2070 [23:44] <Col_Sera_> that is what it says
#2071 [23:45] <Col_Sera_> but I already updated my video card drivers.
#2072 [23:45] <GreyVulpine> How did you update your video card drivers?
#2073 [23:45] * [1]Jackson413 [[1]Jackson413@notlogged] has joined #minecrafthelp
#2074 [23:45] <Col_Sera_> I did it from the windows thing and my computer friend gave me a bunch of sites but still no minecraft.
#2075 [23:46] <Col_Sera_> I know they are up to date so I dont know what to do now.
#2076 [23:46] <GreyVulpine> Col_Sera_ - Windows will never give you the latest video drivers
#2077 [23:46] <Col_Sera_> Really/
#2078 [23:46] <GreyVulpine> Col_Sera_ - Could you give us a dxdiag? This will provide us with more information about your computer, including what video card you have
#2079 [23:46] <GreyVulpine> Col_Sera_ - Yes, really.
#2080 [23:46] <GreyVulpine> ??> Col_Sera_ win/dxdiag
#2081 [23:46] <VoxelHead> Col_Sera_: (win/dxdiag) Press the Win+R keys, and type "dxdiag" (no quotes) in the box. Press enter. If prompted about verifying WHQL, select Yes. Once it has finished loading, click the "Save All Information" button and save it to your desktop.
#2082 [23:46] <VoxelHead> Col_Sera_: (win/dxdiag) Open the file you just saved, and copy the contents. Paste them on http://pastebin.com/ and click Submit. Then, copy the link in your browser's address bar and paste it into the IRC channel.

#2085 [23:48] <Col_Sera_> How do i press win+R key?
#2086 [23:49] <GreyVulpine> Col_Sera_ - Look at your keyboard, in the lower left, you should see two keys, a ctrl and alt. Between them, you'll see a button with the windows logo on it. That's your windows key
#2087 [23:49] <GreyVulpine> Press the windows and the R key at the same time to bring up a Run command
#2088 [23:49] <Col_Sera_> oh ok
#2089 [23:50] <Col_Sera_> ok I got it saved to my desk top

#2101 [23:52] <Wug> it might have lost some of its database because it crashed
#2102 [23:53] <Wug> but probably not much
#2103 [23:53] <GreyVulpine> Col_Sera_ - Save what?
#2104 [23:53] <Col_Sera_> on the site do I hit save?
#2105 [23:53] <Col_Sera_> oops submit
#2106 [23:53] <GreyVulpine> On the site, you hit submit
#2107 [23:53] <Col_Sera_> ok
#2108 [23:53] <GreyVulpine> Then give us the http:// address
#2109 [23:53] <Ketsueki> it'll have some extra numbers at the end; which is how you know it worked

#2111 [23:53] <Col_Sera_> there it is
#2112 [23:54] <Ketsueki> Woah, that's... pretty old and way low on ram for minecraft.
#2113 [23:54] <GreyVulpine> Good god that is an old computer.
#2114 [23:54] <GreyVulpine> One moment

#2120 [23:55] <Ketsueki> It ran /minecraft/ just fine?
#2121 [23:55] <GreyVulpine> Col_Sera_ - Try running minecraft with these instructions: http://pastebin.com/1knuj6Zh
#2122 [23:56] <Col_Sera_> Yea really good
#2123 [23:56] <Ketsueki> (I ///seriously/// doubt that... what version of it were you running at the time?)
#2124 [23:56] <GreyVulpine> The 915 can run minecraft, but you'd be lucky to get double digit FPS out of it
#2125 [23:56] <Col_Sera_> what version of what?
#2126 [23:56] <Ketsueki> nevermind; try GreyVulpine's directions
