Section I
Best looking Mods of the Week.
"Move Plus" Mod -
These are the "Main Features" of this mod:

Double jump
Dodging
Dodge jumping
Wall jumping (currently no limit on how many you can do while in air)
Boost Dodging
Fall damage prevented for the velocities that these jumps add, but you can still hurt yourself if you fall too far
Near complete configuration, open up %AppData%Roaming.minecraftconfigmod_MovePlus.cfg for tweaking / activating of new features
Speed mining: turn on in config.txt, is auto click mining and faster mining rate
Air control: Better movement ingame when at low speeds, subtle addition
Speed jumping: Momentum boost if you jump immediately after landing
Added A key that toggles dodging on and off, default 'Z' (configurable)

You remember hearing about Smart Movement? This should definently be an addon to it. TheGamersCave has more then enough information to give to you on this. It is definently handy when it comes to ravine jumping, if I do say so myself.

Recent News

We ALL have heard of the new game Notch is developing:
0x10c

Notch said:

In a parallel universe where the space race never ended, space travel was gaining popularity amongst corporations and rich individuals.

In 1988, a brand new deep sleep cell was released, compatible with all popular 16 bit computers. Unfortunately, it used big endian, whereas the DCPU-16 specifications called for little endian. This led to a severe bug in the included drivers, causing a requested sleep of 0x0000 0000 0000 0001 years to last for 0x0001 0000 0000 0000 years.

It's now the year 281 474 976 712 644 AD, and the first lost people are starting to wake up to a universe on the brink of extinction, with all remote galaxies forever lost to red shift, star formation long since ended, and massive black holes dominating the galaxy.

Who else is looking forward to this? I honestly believe this is a GREAT idea for Notch to be creating this. Just like Minecraft, Notch will be letting people play test it in alpha at a fairly low price.
A quote from his website:

Each ship has a generator capable of producing a fixed wattage, and everything you connect to it drains wattage. A cloaking field, for example, might require almost all the power from the generator, forcing you to turn off all computers and dim all lights in order to successfully cloak.

The computer in the game is a fully functioning emulated 16 bit CPU that can be used to control your entire ship, or just to play games on while waiting for a large mining operation to finish.

I'm sure you all have heard of Notch saying that you can program your own CPU. This would be a GREAT idea. I will definently continue keeping tabs on this game. Follow the development of the game here: 0x10c.com/

That's it for this week! Thanks for reading this blog, and feel free to leave diamonds!
