Are you sure there's at least 100 blocks between the iron farm breeding cell chunks and the village across the way? It could be interfering. There seems to be some diagreement in some videos over how many villagers should be in each cell. Docm says put 2 in each and they will breed up but other videos say since 1.3 (when docm did his, maybe earlier) the algorithm changed and you're meant to use 4 per cell. They should also be balanced out. Inbalanced numbers in each cells will cause poor spawning, although to some extent this can't be helped as the villagers don't all breed at the same time but should even out. The water current in each cell should be from each corner to the centre - when I looked at yours it seems you have the water flowing to the front. There was also a golem in one of the cells which shouldn't have been there.

Thanks. Wonder if it's biome specific then. Will have to play around with settings.

confused

I have a few projects on the go and not in any specific place. Currently in a boat somewhere looking for mushroom islands. Have also been looking for donkeys and fresh horses. Have also been AFKing at iron farm as I want a lot of iron. Just spent 2 hours at gold farm and got nearly a stack of blocks and got 2 more wither heads from the spawn platforms - have 21 heads now biglaugh.

Mike are you getting invoice payment confirmations to your address? Just noticed paying for this month that it has your home address in the invoice section! I wonder if he's just carried it forward from the old server we had with him yonks ago?

You mean my real address rather than my email? I'm not getting anything from either..

Is there anywhere on the server that has building materials or is it whatever I can get my hands on from mining and cutting trees down?

At spawn there is a community store. Plenty of stuff in there to get you started

does anyone know why I'm jumping back every time I walk away from where I spawn? Also I'm suffering a little bit of lag as well as losing connection a lot

confused Neither should be happening. Working okay for me. Maybe local connection issues at your end. Anyone else having problems? What is this "jumping back" issue you speaketh of?

Sounds like lag to me. This has happened to me, your client lets you walk around (but not open chests/doors) for 30 seconds before then losing connection. When you re-log you return to the point where the lag started as the server did not receive the information about where you were.

There are no issues showing in the server log so it appears to be a local connection issue to me which is something I can't do anything about. Try using a better ISP?

Feck.

Just been out in the nether tunnelling for Quartz, and lava breaks in.

Lost my 'Dive Bucket 2001' helmet, power 5 infinity bow, and three top picks; one fortune, one silky, one work pick. Plus a top axe and spoon...

Arse.

But, I've been here before, and the good news is it only takes about a day of slaving away at the ender farm to get back to where I was.... banghead

I learnt a long time ago that any kind of mining/exploration/building in the nether is not going to end well without a fire resist potion occupying a slot on the hotbar.

Haven't we been on version 1.7.6 for the last good while?

I've just tried to log on, and the message was that I can't because the server is on 1.7.2 and is out of date!

Edit - it's now on 1.7.4, so it's slowly catching up!

Yep it's broken. Host hasn't uploaded the 1.7.6 server to the panel so the latest one I can access is 1.7.4, which is no good when the client version is 1.7.6. Can't do anything until I get a response to my support ticket.

Is it possible to use Minecraft to build a landscape without all the crafting, fighting and wizardry? In other words use it as a Lego kit in software form?
