Second Batch of Minecon tickets gone!

I've tried all the tips from yesterday (staying on the page and refreshing like mad for a while), but no ticket. I was fast enough to select quantity and press checkout too. With my luck, Minecon will never be this close to me again. Salty as fuck now, have fun for those of you who were lucky enough to nab one.

First time playing, I’d like to play survivor with a friend

I just downloaded this game on PC and I am trying to play survival mode with my girlfriend who lives in a different state. I downloaded server 1.9.2 from http://ift.tt/1rD4cHV and I got a server running, but I have no idea how to configure it for survival mode!

Anyone able to help me out? Point to a tutorial? Everything I can find seems to be outdated!

NVIDIA announces GTX 1080 and GTX 1070, Pascal based graphics cards

Posted on by

NVIDIA has taken the wraps off its next generation flagship graphics cards, the GTX 1080 and the cheaper GTX 1070.

The main attraction here is that both the cards are based on NVIDIA’s new Pascal architecture and manufactured using 16nm FinFET process, which makes it more efficient, 3x compared to the previous Maxwell architecture, and also smaller, while packing in 7.2 billion transistors.

The GTX 1080 comes with 2560 CUDA cores, up from 2048 on the 980. It is clocked at 1607MHz, with a boost clock of 1733MHz. The card is also overclockable with the new GPU Boost 3.0.

Creating a Simple .bat File? via /r/Minecraft

Creating a Simple .bat File?

Thanks everybody – showing extensions and changing it manually did the trick. No idea what was going there 🙂 thx again!

I'm trying to create a simple .bat file to run a minecraft (forge) server. I've done this numerous times in the past without issue.

Create new text file, save as server.bat changing from 'txt' to 'all files', save…that should be it, right? It refuses to save as a .bat file. It keeps reverting to a text file. What gives?

I even downloaded a simple random .bat file from online as a test, deleted it's contents and tried to save that empty .bat file in that same folder – it also reverted to a text file. Anyone no what's going on here? Thanks!

NVIDIA Announces GeForce GTX 1080 And GTX 1070 With Powerful Price-Performance Ratio For Gamers

Posted on by

When NVIDIA CEO Jen-Hsun Huang took to the stage in Austin last night on the eve DreamHack, one of the largest BYOC (Bring Your Own Computer) gaming events on the planet taking place at the Austin Convention Center, most attendees at the public event expected Huang to unveil the company’s next generation flagship GeForce graphics card for PC gaming and that it would likely be claimed to offer killer next-generation levels of performance. And that’s exactly what happened but when the powerhouse GPUs ship in the near few weeks, almost no one expected their confirmed price points.  In fact, the launch of the NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1080 and GeForce 1070 may be the single biggest gain in price/performance value proposition for gamers in the company’s history so far.
