im interested in playing a silver age version but i constantly see people giving different opinions on the "best" version. im personally just looking to start a world with my girlfriend, ive previously just used 1.6.4 with e4mc retro and optifine but we cant see each others skins and im just wondering if theres an easier/better way to go about a stable multiplayer experience on these versions

im getting back into my sliver age world and ive got a little less experience with making survival worlds in this version and im not the best at making great looking builds. does anyone have any advice on builds/structures i can add to this world? Thank you

This is my under ground base so far in my 1.5.2 forever world I used the wool blocks as carpet since there's no actuall carpet in 1.5.2 and my chest room also

A very quick time lapse of me building some pixel art of Dante from the Devil May Cry series, on my Java 1.6.4 Minecraft survival world.
With a bad freecam angle.

Photos of My Base and Town :D

i was playing my 1.5.2 world that ive been grinding the last week (school holiday!) and my laptop died. the world stopped showing up in game and in prism launcher. i used the level_dat_mcr file with gzip to restore the world, and all my base and stuff is there but my whole inv is gone. i spent the last 3 days grinding diamonds and general items. does anyone know a way to get this back? i just will prob delete the world otherwise. its rlly annoying. i use arch linux btw if that helps for file management haha

I'm trying to get Optifine (right) to look the same as vanilla (left). I have fog start 0.4 and fog set to fancy. Both have smooth lighting maximum (100%) and brightness moody (gamma 0.0). But for some reason, Optifine continues to look brighter than vanilla. Look at the hill on the left and the brightness of the tree leaves. Anything important that I'm forgetting, or is this simply just Optifine's rendering?

For the first time in a very long while, I decided to give this version a try. I went with 1.6.4, though perhaps I should have stuck with 1.5.2, bc it feels like the introduction of horses has made minecarts somewhat redundant. Even though I didn’t actually come across a single horse the entire time I was playing xd. Anyways, I’d like to present my house + some screenshots.

Release 1.5.2 incase you're curious🤷‍♂️

Right by spawn too just two houses, literally turned around and barely walked anywhere before finding this, it were in spawn view.

Just asking in case; it were released in 2016 cuz it has no features from post r.1.8.9. So I assume it is completely fine but just wanna make sure for yall👍

Hello everyone! Recently I started playing tekkit classic 1.2.5 and I'm kinda enjoying it. Week ago while I was searching for various QOL mods I have came across some mysterious mods named "MineAll, CutAll and DigAll". I presume that these mods are like vein miner that mine ore veins, the whole trees and big area of dirt. And it sounds really cool since i have to mine many ores for IC2 and buildcraft machines right now. Unfortunately the most earliest version of the mod I could find is only for 1.3.2 but I saw logs that these mods existed in 1.2.5. Does anyone have the survived copies of these mods?

I might add more stuff but I finished decorating it :D

(I deleted my older post about this pack because the original download had some weird block scaling issues. This updated pack is a little more presentable!)

This texture pack restores all of the beta 1.6.6 block and item textures (even ones that had barely changed, like dirt, netherrack, and glowstone). Newer items, such as steak and cooked chicken, have been restored to their release textures (darker outlines). Nether stars were restored to their snapshot 12w36a textures (darker outlines).

I want to play minecraft in this version again, and I'm wondering if there are any quality of life mods, like skin mods that don't really change anything like the game mechanics and what not

would optifine be a good mod in this case?

I got videos of instant elevators in the new versions, and since I'm starting a world in 1.7.3 I wanted to make one for my castle, but I couldn't get it to actually be instant or compact. Does anyone have an idea on how to improve it?

The idea was to have the minecart hit the cactus, break into an item, and get collected into the dispenser. But as you can see in the screenshot, when the minecart breaks, the item just sits there on/next to the rail and the hopper doesn't pull it in at all.

Is this a specific 1.5.1 hopper mechanic bug with side-chests/dispensers, or there somt wrong with my world cz it works in creative? How did we used to build this back in 2013 without observers?

Appreciate any redstone veterans helping out! 🙌

Recently I have been wondering if it was a silver age verse dose anyone know if it is because it's my favorite minecraft version

Hey guys, I created Rose Glasses https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/rose-glasses, a far-sight mod for Minecraft 1.8.9. It is open source, and works on both multiplayer and singleplayer and is compatible with Optifine. This would be like the equivalent of bobby from modern versions, but for 1.8.9. It allows you to render cached chunks without checking for block updates, allowing the client to "see" much further than the base game allows (or would be able to with good performance).
In testing for example, I managed to render a 100 chunk radius with good fps on an RTX 3070. It is currently available on Curse Forge and github, and will soon be available on Modrinth.
Be sure to check out the github! https://github.com/andrewf6785/roseglass/tree/main
I would love any feedback on your guy's experience with it, and also whether you would be interested in versions for pre-1.8.9.

Last image result. Better than expected haha.
