    I've made 4 of those (they're actually just rooms). Except light doesn't travel down there and even with torches, the light only travels like 4 blocks at the most.

    (not mine)

    I need an easy way to at least see on the bottom because the rent is too damn high!... err, it's too dark down there.

    and it costs too much to build 5 or so of those. i plan on going large-scale with possibly a 50 x 50 block room (or bigger).. with trees and maybe grass (if i can manage to grow it down there)

    i've learned the hard way now I need an easy way for going deep underwater

    Jack-o-lanterns and lightstone can be placed IN water if that's what you're looking for. I believe that jack-o-lanterns give of more light than a torch and lightstone gives off a little less.

    Can't find a pumpkin... and lightstone's just too difficult to obtain.. i mean 9 just for one block?

    I'm more looking for a mod that will make darker areas lighter.

    I found one that lets u place torches underwater but don't know how to add it (i'm on a mac)..

    I thought Notch wasn't doing that untill beta, that's why I asked.
    EDIT: I just read the update info, I knew there was significance for the 'Happy birthday, ez!' message. I'm more excited about that fact that buckets will now work!

    EDIT EDIT: I'm thinking of making a machinima with my friends but I don't who I'm going to be (I'm going to be capturing) - I'm either going to be a character where the video is from their point of view, A cameraman who doesn't speak, Just a camera or a mixture between just a carmera and a character (through is POV).

    Please could people vote for which idea they like the most and they might witness one of the first minecraft machinimas!

    It reminds me of something...... um..... a castle? Nah I just can't remember what it reminds me of, it looks really prettyful (one of my special person words).

    Apsolutely not trying to bring up my topic of the machinima, I meant I was going to make a machinima SERIES.

    Only make a machinima in Minecraft if you know 100% what you're doing. I've seen like one or two, and they've sucked ass because the person decided "Hey, I'm going to make a machinima right now!"

    Crap :/...
    I kinda have an idea of what the first (pilot) episode is going to be like, I'm going to make that one to see if people want to see the rest of it and I may be able to convince some of my friends to help - In their opinion minecraft 'looks like ****' and they're 'busy' making a halo machinima (which has been going for a few months and they're still at the 'starting the script' stage).

    EDIT: As for the camera stuff I think I've decided to be a character so the camera is through their eyes but it will include alternate angle/ situation cameras. And now for the killer question: Does anybody know how to remove the things like the bottom bar (incl. hearts) and tags above other players? This'll really help me out with filming, I have an idea of how to remove the bottom bar and hearts (buh bye textures!) and I know that you can remove eveything by holding F1 but I want the arm visable (plus holding down F1 and playing the game isn't really practical)

    An example of a good minecraft machinima would be this:

    Alright so...two days ago I had a private server running perfectly fine, online mode true and my friends were playing normally.

    Now today, the command prompt isn't even telling me when someone is trying to connect, it just refuses the connection (Failed to login, connection refused) every time.

    I started a clean server, then started another clean server with online mode false to check the LAN capability, and alas to no avail. Any help?

    It's been posted in this thread already and discussed for at least half a page after that.

    I feel like I'm the only one that has read every post in this thread.
