I dun did it. I bought Minecraft. :mrgreen:

What I actually came here for was to ask for suggestions.

Any cool texture packs I should check out? Anything basic I should know to get started on our SMP server?

I've watched tonnes of Minecraft survival videos over the past year or so (Seananners, Yogscast, davidr64yt, etc.) so I know what to do in singleplayer survival.
Is it a lot different from multiplayer?

Lots of questions, but I hope y'all can help me with some of them :D

Nope. I popped onto the free creative version a few times and I've been interested in the game for some time but I never actually bought it.

If you have a decent enought computer try the Balea texture pack, it's my favorite.

I would say single player tends to be a lot more serious then Multiplayer as you've only got yourself as company.
Best thing to do in multiplayer is to join someones town and do the rest from there.

Grats Orange! You finally joined us. Yes, you are one of us now... one..of...us-s-s-s-s-s-s-s-s :ugly: :4

About texture packs: TBH, I have tried everything out there from goofy, acartoon like packs to the ultra hi-res packs, but I always end up back witht eh default. THere si just something about the way the lighting works in teh default pack that I find more appealing that shiny textures.

If you wanna give it a try though, the obvious ones are:

Painterly Pack
Doku's RPG Pack
LB PhotoRealism Pack
John Smith's Pack

And many more Here

have fun and we'll see you on the new servers soon :D

Omgwtfcreepers!

I laughed with all of those people I watched when they whimpered at the sight of one of those exploding penises.
They never seemed too much of a threat and could be dealt with relatively easily.

Now they blew up my house I'm whimpering myself. Now I understand the dread everyone experiences when one of those is around.

Such is life in Minecraft.

Hmm, everytime I try to apply a new texpack, instead of Minecraft giving me the option to choose between textures, my default textures just get replaced with the custom ones.
Any fixes?

Are you trying to apply them directly to the minecraft.jar or are you putting the entire zip file into the "textturepacks" folder found in the main minecraft folder?

For this specific one (this one) I unpacked the files to the right folder (the one minecraft itself directs you to) and then used the mcpatcher (this one) because this texture pack seems to require it.

You dont unpack the files into the folder. Just drop the entire .zip file as-is into the folder. Minecraft will treat the zip archive as a package in the game.
