    Rangerduck18I run about 1013+ FPS, what about you?

    What settings and hardware do you have?
    64-bit Java, lowest settings I can run 900+ on singleplayer and 400fps on servers.
    Highest settings I get about 222fps single player and 180 server.

    Hey!

    So, the way to go is to learn Java. All of what you mention above runs on Java. Minecraft, Bukkit (a modification of Minecraft) and spigot (a modification of Bukkit) all use Java as the programming language.

    Note I say "Java" and not "Javascript." And I make the difference clear because Codeacademy teaches "Javascript" (Unless they've recently added Java on there).

    If I find a good teaching / learning system I'll come back here and post it, but in the meantime (if I do come back to post), you can use several platforms that will help you write Java. I recommend Eclipse IDE. Some people prefer to just use Notepad++ and use separate compilers and whatnot, but Eclipse puts it nice and neatly easy to see for, what i can only assume to be, you a beginner programmer.

    Hope this helps. If you have any questions feel free to PM me.

    Loved it! When can i get more?!?!? Survived the practice round! (and went after back to complete every other option possible hehehe).

    Saw one typo, no broken links, and would love to sign up as a serious tester... and possibly help more (than just an alpha tester).

    I'll PM ya after this post.

    I've gotten an error like this.

    Starting basic:
    The issue I had was with the order in my booting options. I had plugged in a USB drive and my computer was trying to load windows from it. If it gives you the option at startup to enter to your BIOS, do that and check the booting order (as well as make sure no USB memories are plugged in).

    Not that basic?
    I would recommend a link, but it would delay this post, so instead you can find said link by googling "Errors code: 0x000014c"
    and going to the result called "0xc000014C: Fix for Windows Vista, 7, 8 - NeoSmart Technologies" it should be the first one. It has instructions and some pictures to go with them. Let me know if it works, or if i can try to help any more afterwards

    I wanted to ask UMayBleed, sir, how does one go about configuring the DNS for what you are doing?
    As i too own a website, but I don't know how to configure the DNS, other than to change from IMAP/POP3 to Exchange emails.

    I agree with the post above.

    I'll explain a little bit since you mention you don't know much about graphics cards.

    Generally speaking a graphics card number will tell you a few things (though I'll only focus on Nvidia Graphics cards).

    1. The first number, in your build, the 7 of 750 means it's 700 Series
    2. The second determines if it's a low-end or high-end graphics card.
    0-5 low end graphics cards.
    6-9 High end.

    So here's the catch. A 600 High-end series card is better than a low-end 700 series.
    You can see it by Googling "GTX 750" click on the nvidia link geforce.com titled "GeForce GTX 750 Graphics Card | GeForce". Once there click on performance and scroll to the bottom. You can see the basic comparison of how each card stacks up next to each other. The GTX 660 scored 30,000 in the graph (3D Mark Vantage), and the GTX 750 got a score barely above 20,000.
    Even a GTX 560 scores slightly better than the 750. And My old GTX 460 scores relatively close to the 750 with a score of about 17,000.

    Then as for the case, you can definitely get something cheaper. It just depends on how much you want to cut back on looks.

    Lastly, an optical drive isn't absolutely necessary, unless you already have windows on a disc. If you're willing to try some, you can try to install it via a USB. I personally have all my games on the cloud, so i don't have an optical drive.

    Nah no hate.

    lol I just ran a small test (in order to be official it would need more play time in various scenarios. I know), but opening Chrome had the opposite effect.

    I was getting 270-290, open Chrome, they dipped to 220-230, and after opening 9 tabs, when they finished loading my fps stayed at a 315-330 range.

    I did assume he meant multi-celled organisms from outer space

    Although, technically yeah. In legal terms, I was an Alien to the U.S. for several years... while I worked out and got my citizenship

    lol. I don't think it is in general, is it? I mentioned it because of the number of tabs. I almost always play my games with Chrome open in the background.

    TES YouTubeShader you use: if you mean effect, I tend to use a variety of effects depending on the video
    Recording software you use: I use frapps on 60 fps and use corel visual studio x6 ( capable of editing into 4k resolutions
    Video Format of example of random landscape with shaders on, recorded on your PC?: I do not understand this question


    I'm not sure i understand the question either, but he probably means the Shaders your computer uses.


    Not sure how accurate this is, but this site explains it:

    FPS performance can *sometimes* be affected by the most random things.

    1. Yes, above 60fps is fine, although personally i feel like I'm lagging (in minecraft) when my game drops to 80-90fps.
    2. If you want the absolute max fps, close out any other programs you're not using. For me Chrome usually makes minecraft take a hit on fps, from avg 180 to 120, then again... i usually have a minimum of 15-20 tabs open on chrome.
    3. Make sure you don't have any minimized tasks running (i.e. anti-virus scanning and hiding in the taskbar, etc)

    /*EDIT: Random because my fps dropped to 40-50 yesterday until i closed a notification from the Nvidia Experience program. Dunno why. I closed it and fps shot back up to 90-100s.
    END EDIT.*/

    Lastly, I'm curious. Would you be able to tell us your graphics card?
    If on Windows 7:
    -Start
    -Right-click on Computer
    -Properties
    -On "Rating" section
    -Windows Experience Index (it's a link)
    -Under the Big Rating score to the right
    --- "View and Print detailed performance and System Information"

    This will pull up your entire computer specs if you need them in the future

    Joined a server, in survival. I went to the spleef arena they had and beat the other players. When the server game the automatic "You won" message, it tp'd me into a wall. Naturally I lost all my items.

    My reaction was only that i typed: "Uhm.. I just got tp'd into a wall after winning spleef?"

    and an admin started mocking me and said I should stop whining about losing my items.... ?

    If he'd only said it once I would've just brushed it off, but he kept repeating the stupid comments until I left. Never came back.

    I'm not a "must see to believe" kind of person for most things, but this one would be one of those few.

    So, in short. No. I don't believe in Aliens

    YES! Code Academy is great! and if you need problems to solve, like practice, you can always use the following two:

    Coding Bat: http://Codingbat.com
    Practice It: http://practiceit.cs.washington.edu/practiceit/index.jsp


    EDIT:
    Oh sorry. I forgot. You need to have an .edu email for practice it. Well, you can always use coding bat
