Empire Minecraft is still 1.8 - 1.9.4 is near!

Wait so you just go "poof" and make the end waste spawn? Pretty cool. (Probably a bit more than just poof though)

i make it sound like a "pop", sounds more immediate

Well done, Akair (and other contributors)!

While I didn't actually say it to anyone, I mentally gave you and the dev. team another weekend to fix the chunk loading issue. And it seems you've achieved the time range.

So, "The End - Wastelands".

* Is this going to be the place to respawn the Ender Dragon as much as we want?

* Will the current "The End - Frontiers" have respawning of the dragon disabled?

That would honestly be a great solution, considering the amount of newcomers to EMC and possibly Minecraft as a whole.

These other questions aren't as important as the other questions above. They still could be considered.

(To Non-Staff members) I suggest not expecting any of the following to come to EMC initially.

* Will there be at least one End Gateway in the current "The End - Frontiers"?

-

* Would there be a Live Map for both End Worlds, like the Overworld and the Nether?

- Probably not necessary. The new End Exit Portal is exactly at the origin.

-
-
-

* Discarding the previous question, is there any possibility of increasing the maximum render distance on certain worlds?

- On Utopia, players can't always see their entire residence.

- In The New Outer End (1.9), some of the bigger islands are far enough away, without any mini islands between, to not be visible under the current render distance cap. This could easily misdirect players to take a longer route through The End in search of another big island.

End Cities only spawn on the big islands, never on the mini islands nor simply within the vast Void separating the islands.

The Outer End is still playable under the current 6-chunk render distance limit, in Frontier and Wastelands worlds.

''World Deleted!"
Well done my friend, well done

(obviously I am just joking if that wasnt clear)

Oh no! You went there!

Ahh so I see the Egg has been replaced with the head to spawn. Neato! I knew some configuration like this was possible but I couldn't get it to work on Single Player. Kept running into a crash. Kudos to you!

GG no re!................Also that dragon head though...

So that's what happened! I wondered what event started the "Chin broke it" running gag.

I went mining the other day and, within an hour, had over 54 diamond ores, not to mention other fun things. I started at one of the spawns! Strip mining at level 12 is the way to go! There are still many more to be found.

Another week passed.

Is there a change for 1.9 to come this weekend?

na it will come out in 8 mouths like lest time with 1.8

1.8 was much more complex to update to. Aikar already stated we are pretty close to 1.9

Not only are we updating to 1.9 but there are a couple of "suggestions" elsewhere on the forums that Aikar has already said will roll out with this update.

I am as impatient as the rest of you, but Aikar and the other Devs are doing great .

This forum is lavishly filled with impatience........patient or impatient we're still going to have to deal with it.

And yeah, as mentioned above Aikar already said it was near.

Havent looked at 1.9 at all, I cant wait to see it on emc Im waiting till emc updates to check it out haha

Haha I've gotten 2 stacks of diamond ore in 2 hours

I am really excited for the 1.9 update myself. Though I am technically challenged lol. However, I feel anxious waiting because I really want the wastes to reset. I was playing with Sparticals as a matter of fact, and he described the area closest to spawn as looking like a nuke went off. I agree! It looks very well nuked. But I know things take time. Sometimes it does not feel as if things can occur fast enough, but patience is key. Patience is a virtue

Peace & Love

Thank You for the update. Now to look for 2 weeks .. or more... or less. Either way, you've given us a new time frame . Thanks.
