What makes it different? Does classic Minecraft not have multiplayer? I never played it

@mootwo_ Год назад

@@li_tsz_fung Classic MC did have multiplayer, but it's probably not super active these days (and I think you need a third-party launcher now) The biggest differences with ClassiCube to me are that 1. it's written in C instead of Java, which seems to help a lot with performance (I get 3-4x the FPS), and 2. the code's open source + mostly platform-independent, so you could get it running on a wide variety of systems also the cheats are nice for singleplayer lol

ClassiCube is created in the C programming language, so it makes sense. It's mainly ClassiCube servers and the specific server softwares that build on the experience of the game, not the client itself. You could even add custom blocks using a server software such as MCGalaxy and have a lightweight Minecraft-like game with all of the modern blocks (but none of the functions).

Thanks for this video, I've played around with this a few times but didn't really look into it closely until now. The source code for this is great. All you have to do is set up a basic dev environment, clone the Git, and 'make' if you have an unsupported system. ARM, MIPS, SPARK, everything is on the table with this project and I had no clue until now.

Here's a ClassiCube tip for anyone with slow, retro systems that get below 30 fps: Open the graphics settings/video settings and change "Camera Mass" to any number between 1 and 5. I like 2. Then turn on Smooth Camera. This will make the game look a bit nicer and smoother on slower retro systems or old laptops like a 90s/2000s PowerBook.
