ChargedMinersClassic

Charged Miners is a client for classic, download the launcher here

Improvements

• Save last few messages typed into the console, and allow using up/down arrows to scroll through them (like you would in a terminal).
• Water cosmetic improvements: specularity, volumetric fog underwater, etc.
• More chat/terminal improvements (being able to move cursor around with arrow keys, selection with shift key, etc).
• Lighting mode faithful to Minecraft Classic (straight-down shadows), to allow viewing pixelart properly.
• Create an entry in the configuration file allowing to adjust the movement speed.
  • Ideally separate entries for normal horizontal and vertical speeds, and for sped-up horizontal and vertical speeds.
• XBox 360 gamepad support (triggers are on the same axis thanks to MS's driver)
• Clickable links in game chat.
• Make walking/running speeds configurable.
• Ability to bookmark/favourite/sticky servers in the serverlist, keeping them at the top.
• Add extension protocol.

Launcher

• Button/Menu item to open the %AppData%/Roaming/charge folder. - Done in 1.1
  • Bonus Objective: Button/Menu item that uploads log.txt to a paste site. - Done in 1.1
• Add a list of recently-joined/favorite servers.

Bugs

• "gfx" eats 95% of time (realtime, not CPU time) if vsync is enabled.
• Intel graphics cards doesn't get smooth textures.
• Player models lack hats.
• Player should be able to go above the map (beyond the map boundary) even when NoClip is disabled.
• Alt-tabbing out of the game window sometimes keeps the mouse focus stolen.
• There is no application icon on Windows for CM.

Done

• Optional/toggle-able collision detection with terrain.
• Non-flying player movement code.
• Expose more options through in-game menus.
• The default skin is completely white.
• Interpolate other players' movement.
• Ignores terrain.classic.png and doesn't load textures from terrain.png (classic) correctly unless manipulateTextureClassic(pic); is commented out (line 306, miners/startup.d) (Tested on Linux 3.5.4-1 x86_64, nvidia-304.51)
  • Works for me, make sure you put terrain.classic.png somewhere it can find it.
• Charged Miners doesn't report the same player location to the server as the official client (though the official client may be in error). Not a bug.
• Half steps make the underside of the block above them transparent.
• Admincrete is delete-able by non-ops.
• With viewdistance Furthestest, ghost clones of the players on the same map as you can be seen far down below the world.
• --resume argument that connects to last connected to server.
• Bringing up chat should release the mouse.
• Water surface becomes invisible when underwater.
• Individual water blocks are clickable (unlike vanilla Minecraft water blocks), which makes underwater building very difficult.
• Ability to paste text while typing (Ctrl+V or Shift+Ins).
• Turn on the ability to resize the window by default (at least on Windows).
• Add ability to part a server after joining, to go back to the server list.
• Show a list of players when pressing <tab>
• Repeated breaking/placing on mouseclick hold
• Better error messages!
• The toolbox not allowing more than one of the same block
• Intel graphics cards rendering is broken
• Irssi style tab complete
• Water isn't transparent
• Larger chat window
