I have a picture, but don't feel like posting right now...

1 hour straight of mining, I got about a 50x10 rectangle of ores. Just randomly mining everywhere and everything (no coal).

 

the $$ is not as good for me now with no macro mod, no optifine and no exp.

to answer your question, probably 20k/hour once i get optifine back. Could go a bit higher.

How to use an Eff7? There are a few good techniques that I know:

1. Mine straight ahead in a 1x2 tunnel while stopping for ores. Fly/speed recommended to really make this work.
2. Swing your view back and forth as you move forward, cutting a wider tunnel. Regular speed works fine for this.
3. dig out a long thin open area. strafe along the wall in front of you from left to right and then back again, digging out a room that is two blocks tall.

 

Thank you for sharing these tips - Would you mind explaining how optifine makes any difference? I understand macro mod b/c it allows for much more efficiency but do not how optifine would.

 

Well, I can make more money with better fps. My computer is bad enough that water and lava can lag me.

 

Thank you so much, now I understand!
