how is emerald going to be included in the game? New server with emerald to mine, or just randomly added to existing servers wilderness where available?
The emerald ore will spawn in extreme hill biomes that have not yet been explored. So on the live map, 15000 blocks from /wild spawn, there is just black. These black sections will have a chance of containing emerald if there is an Extreme Hill biome there.
The 1.2 update of converting all map to "anvil" was a complete rewrite of the existing world code, it wasnt just to add "a few" new blocks into existing maps. I can tell you now there will NOT be a "anvil2.0" for this new update, the only way Emerald ore will be added to the game will be via a /wild reset with a new world seed, or by, as I said before, exploring the "dark" areas once 1.3 is released.
Wild reset: I would HATE that idea. (i dont live in the wild but i dont want a reset. CONFUSED YET!???!?!?!?!)
if you're going to complain about us being too lazy to build our colonies all over again, than how about we go on about how lazy YOU are for not wanting to go out and generate new turf, biomes, and ores.
Haha yep I think theirs about 4 months of hard work out there dealing with personal projects, the railways, Farms, "of now" closed grinders, group projects and etc. yea we don't live out there at all
Oh here we go again! Im on neither sode,besides i dont want a reset and i live99.9% of time in town. Im not that lazy, justweird.
i don't want a reset.. i'd LOVE to go out farther to get the new area's.. exploring is AWESOME i have a wild base i have had for months.. it is one epic of a place, i would be so upset after all my hard work just went into nothingness. sure its the wild, build at your res, but you don't have a great place at the towns, its so nice to be out in the wild, where only local chat works, and you don't get bombarded with annoying people.
