Replacing Texture Packs with Resource Packs
I think that, since texture packs are now obsolete, shouldn't we replace the Texture pack link with Resource packs? It would make sense since there is no real need for Texture packs anymore. Warpshard 22:16, 9 July 2013 (UTC)

No. Texture packs can still be used for 1.5.2, which is in the launcher, so it really isn't obsolete and shouldn't be redirected to resource packs. --68.117.179.164 01:50, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

Step 0.1: think if you even need a mod Step one: go check on youtube and don't bother us Step two: if youtube doesn't help ask someone else Have fun :D.SaltyTeaParty 02:03, 24 July 2013 (UTC)

I think that it could be a good thing to have a tutorial on installing mods in the new launcher on the wiki. Weren't there tutorials on this before the new launcher came out? Starfire2999 20:41, 10 August 2013 (UTC)

 * The wiki is separate from and not affiliated with Mojang. For help with purchasing/accounts/etc., you should contact Mojang directly; http://help.mojang.com is a good place to start. -- Orthotope talk 00:30, 20 July 2013 (UTC)

Capture the Flag
Is there anywhere else we can move a link to this page? It seems silly that something that was only mentioned once over 4 years ago (alongside a doom level importer) by someone who doesn't even work on the game anymore is both still considered "planned" and front page material. --Moxxy 03:51, 8 August 2013 (UTC)

Train Whistle?

Zombie mob spawner item ID??
been looking on every website, but I cannot seem to find any telling me the Zombie mob spawner item ID, can anyone please help? –Preceding unsigned comment was added by 211.28.198.246 (talk)&#32;06:32, 20 August 2013 (UTC). Please sign your posts with

You cannot place a zombie spawner without mods or hacks. If you want to place one, I recommend getting tekkit and putting the map on it, placing a zombie spawner, then putting the map back in normal minecraft. And please sign your comments with 4 tildes (~) or pressing the button with a signature on it.--68.117.179.164 01:03, 22 August 2013 (UTC)

Insomnia Minecraft Expo UK
I think there needs to be info one this somewhere, As Dinnerbone is going along with Curse and a bunch of celebrity individuals. so. Website: http://insomniagamingfestival.com/whatson/whats-on-minecraft/ SO shoud there be a Insomnia Minecraft Expo UK page?--007a83 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 19:54, 22 August 2013 (UTC)


 * No; the wiki doesn't document the fan community. Curse staff and 'celebrities' aren't considered important, and Dinnerbone is only listed as being in the 'meet and greet' event, not speaking on any of the panels. If it's not in-game content or directly connected to Mojang (as Minecon is), it doesn't belong here. -- Orthotope talk 10:30, 23 August 2013 (UTC)


 * ok. That is why I asked, I was unsure. I was thinking the same thing, But wanted to make sure.--007a83 (Talk&#124;Contribs) 18:08, 23 August 2013 (UTC)

PlayStation
Hi,

Could an admin add to the news section: August 20, 2013 - Minecraft announced for PlayStation 3, 4 and Vita.

I think this belongs there. -- TheWombatGuru   t undefinedc  NL Admin  16:59, 24 August 2013 (UTC)
