Nice new blue glass office tower!  I'll have to go have a closer look at it later.

What extras are you using to make the water ripple and the clouds be all soft and the shadows be all proper-shadowy?

[Mr. Analog]

Damn your amazing builds.

I blame the filters, they make everything look good: -)

I'm using Sonic Ether's Unbelievable Shaders

In fact,, to find the link I found out there's a new version ready

http://sonicether.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=168&sid=bf2b8dc8f2be02b58c06848e092ccb9e

This is surprisingly easy to install, first get and install the latest version of the GLSL shaders mod here:
http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1544257-172shaders-mod-v2312-updated-by-karyonix/

There is an installer that will add a profile to your Minecraft launcher, in that profile it will add a new option to the options screen that lets you select or add a shader pack. Just drop SEUS in the folder and select it in the interface and watch your game transform

I have been holding off on shaders in 1.8 because of the sunlight in caves bug.

I've been holding off on shaders et al because of crappy graphics cards...

[Mr. Analog]

Depending on the shader pack you get (and there are some for low performance) usually only affect framerate

I did some spelunking yesterday and didn't see any sunlight in deep caves, but I would get some glitching inside larger structures

SEUS v10.1 Preview 2 adds a few things:
-Less harsh lighting
-Puddle effects in rain!

Umm...  Is this a Mario Pipe?  http://ov.mc.tomasu.org/planetbob/#/-2097/64/1089/max/0/0

I wonder whose it is...

[Mr. Analog]

DON'T BREAK THE BLOCKS

They're citizens of the Mushroom Kingdom of course!

[Mr. Analog]

Uhh! I thought this was a map render glitch at first:

That was Snowie0wl, he used it to make that scrambled-tv-channel effect on his giant tv here: http://forums.righteouswrath.com/index.php/topic,8498.msg82557.html#msg82557

Here's the actual TeleGrotto on the map: http://ov.mc.tomasu.org/planetbob/#/-1511/64/113/max/0/0

And I guess his buddy made the Mario Pipe.

Item elevator + pipes = 1 step closer to automation!

My huge pit is finally down to lvl 10 (which is roughly where I wanted to be) so now I can start branching out mineshafts, but how do I get all the stuff I mine up to the surface? A KICK ASS ITEM ELEVATOR! (and an item pipe made with hoppers

Turns out I had enough materials to make this happen rather quickly today (ok, I've been playing since 4:30 or so) I DID have to go into creative a couple times to fix some wiring but man, this works amazing

Elevator tutorial here:

The next step is building a rail system that will shunt material automatically to the elevator

Man I was enjoying the automation I had set up and the power went out

Augh

I was wonderin' where you went.  I managed to build another, taller tower for my City of Tomorrow.
