Dear Minecraft Owners,

[Seth Astra]

It just won't work. Here's the exact error message:

org.lwjgl.LWJGLExeption: Pixel format not accelerated

The top of the message box says "Failed to start Minecraft". This is annoying, since I really want to at least try the game.

Say, Sord. What's the server you play on?

[Sord]

We don't advertise the server name, better that way, we know who knows the place and don't need to worry about griefers and BS. I can talk to admin dude about letting you in though if you want. No guarantees though.

Have you googled that exact string? I just tried and found a ton of links to other people having that issue.

@ Sord: That's understandable. On my usual server, we have anti-griefing measures, but it's never enough to keep all the "filth" out. xP If you can get me onto the server, that'd be great, but it's no big deal if you can't, so don't sweat it if that's the case.

So remember that disk? I put a roof on it...



Unfortunately my huge lack of foresight led to a sizeable chunk of the town not being displayed on our maps, also made a massive spawning point for monsters that won't die because the sun is blocked out (until I finally went and put down like 3 or 4 stacks of torches,) and I'm pretty sure there was something else... guess I'll chalk it up to "the end justifies the means" and not repeat those means in the future.

That is one big wacko cookie.

I just got Minecraft. It's fun.
