What do you guys think of these?

Already updated it earlier, not bad, didn't really notice anything different...

 

[Reedz]

Me too, barely see any difference, oh well.

 

[Legion]

I still don't understand the jump from 1.4.7 to 1.5. Was there a big change? Besides a little UI Change.

 

[Weasel]

The new updates, for example the scoreboard etc, are pretty awesome. Btw, PLEASE change the font you are using to quote the updates, it gives me a headache.

Fixed, and I like the new commands, but what does /effect do?

hopper: mind=blown
comparator: mind=blown
activator rail/tnt carts: mind=blown
daylight sensor: mind=blown
trapped chest: mind=blown
weighted pressure plate: mind=.....meh
block of redstone: mind=blown
netherrack to nether brick: mind=woo
nether quartz: mind=....nice
/scoreboard: mind=blown^(holy crap)
/effect: mind=woooo
custom names: mind=blown
inventory management: mind=yeeeeeeeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaaaa
improved texture packs: mind=blown^(OMFG)
smooth lighting: mind=meh
harder skeletons: mind senses more of Dinglydell was shot by Skeleton
mobs set you on fire: mind thinks Dinglydell burnt to a crisp whilst fighting Zombie
better death messages: mind=blown^(#!!"£@@@###)

Fixed, and I like the new commands, but what does /effect do?

/effect <player> <potion effect> [seconds] [amplifier] will give you the specified potion effect for the specified length of time. eg. /effect Dinglydell 1 1000 2 Will give me speed 3 for 1000 seconds.

Put a hopper beneath a trapped chest with a chest minecart spinning to your house.
Free items! xD

It's a really good update, especially if you play vanilla survival. I also like the new way crafting works, as I can normally craft my armor a lot faster. It also makes it easier to make a lot of other stuff in decent amount of time, as oppose to the old way. I suppose that it's also nice for some players who don't use OptiFine or MCPatcher, as they don't need that for custom texture packs.

My only complaint would be that it seems to have impacted my FPS? Oh well, I'm sure the next stable OptiFine update will address that.

? I always get atleast 100FPS with a mod? Its Nodus 1.5 excluding optifine.

Honestly think this is the first visible proof of the slow downfall of Minecraft.
They're getting into selling servers...
They haven't finished numerous updates, copying from people's mods instead of coming up with real ideas, They haven't addressed the massive performance issues regarding how shitty their code is, and how bad they manage it.

It's on its way to opensource soon.
