How long before our mystery friend starts asking for diamond?

Manco · #**482** 06-28-2011, 09:02 AM

If he does he's not bloody getting mine.

Splat · #**483** 06-28-2011, 05:10 PM

I just had an idea...

I need some signs!

DarkHoodness · #**484** 06-28-2011, 07:54 PM

Gonna be a screenshot-heavy update:

Filling this place is gonna be a challenge - The frame of the wall is finally finished though:

Early interior test, the only thing I've come up with so far but I'm having more ideas. I think I'll need to scale this up a bit:

Today we cleared the last of the space inside too:

In bed.

I would say double the height of each floor - compare the scale of the slig in the cutscene to the corridor you've put together, it's way too small.

Havoc · #**489** 06-29-2011, 03:28 AM

I hope the final version of Minecraft also has the option to make smaller blocks somehow. It's a very creative game but the sheer size of the blocks prevents any kind of detail.

Phylum · #**490** 06-29-2011, 03:41 AM

Unless you make stuff really big.

Also, Better than Wolves has smaller blocks. It looks fairly neat.

I was aware of that when I built it. :P

Agreed with that, even half-blocks don't stack together correctly so you have to use compromises. Wil's boat is a good example of this (he should post screenshots of that, BTW).

Hey Havoc, can you give me the info on where to get that mapping software so you can get an isometric view of the areas? Our server would like to get them so we can link the towns up by roads yada yada yada.

Single Player doesn't count as a server.

Ouch, lol.

Thank you. It's a real pain in the arse travelling through the nether because you and other people, OddHunter, get lost walking.

Oh btw, when rendering the map of our world the program rendered a whooping 38.000 chunks. I have no idea how many blocks that is, but it seemed like a lot to me.

STM · #**497** 06-29-2011, 04:34 PM

32,768*38,000=1245184000

Havoc · #**498** 06-29-2011, 04:48 PM

1.2 billion blocks huh? Hm, that is a lot.

STM · #**499** 06-29-2011, 04:50 PM

Quite, that is if 38.000 means 38,000, I assume it does since you are from the Netherlands, if it was just 38 it would be far more measly.

Havoc · #**500** 06-29-2011, 04:55 PM

I use dots and comma's based on my mood, don't look to far into it.

DarkHoodness · #**501** 06-29-2011, 09:14 PM

Another interior study/mock up. Try and imagine this surrounded by stone rather than being outside, but yeah, you can kind of see where I'm going with this:

dripik · #**502** 06-29-2011, 10:00 PM

The catwalk got pretty awesome there. Nice one.

I might get to studying the floor plans soon, then I can contribute to the project once again. Yesterday, I merely walked from RF to the apartments, then back to Genesis Core, and realised that I don't want to do anything. Lack of inspiration or something.

DarkHoodness · #**503** 06-29-2011, 11:16 PM

That's the thing about Minecraft. Unless you have your own project then it gets boring very quickly.

This is why I started such a big project to keep me occupied until 1.8 finally gets released.

As for RF, Don't forget about the floorspace plan - It's actually not that large an area. Splat said that if the RPG map was modified for Minecraft, he said he'd like to put more emphasis on the production lines and storage areas like how RF looks in AO, rather than offices, etc.

I'll be coming up with my own ideas too to help with that, maybe the three of us can combine them. Also, why not do what I'm doing - Take a careful look at AO FMVs and levels, then open up INVEdit for Minecraft and try designing some interiors in single player. It'll give you something to think about.

I thought a large chunk of the factory floor and catwalk was pretty much destroyed in W@RF... partially thanks to me

Ridg3 · #**505** 06-30-2011, 04:08 AM

Here's something for the track at Rupture Farms. At each lever put down a booster rail so it looks like as it does at 0:18

Phylum · #**506** 06-30-2011, 04:19 AM

Or, you know, use the pistons that are being released in a few hours.

Splat · #**507** 06-30-2011, 04:58 AM

I made a Dark Tower!

When the next update creates spikes I'm going to install a spike pit. That'll keep those pesky heroes out.

Havoc · #**508** 06-30-2011, 05:46 AM

Minecraft 1.7 is out, but the server update is not available yet so don't update your clients. I will post here the second the server is updated.

Havoc · #**509** 06-30-2011, 08:52 AM

Server has been updated to 1.7_01

The current server side build is designated as 'Experimental' and will be updated to a 'Recommended' build as soon as one is released. Everything seems to work okay though, so feel free to update and play!

Crashpunk · #**510** 06-30-2011, 09:30 AM

The update is pretty cool. I can see amazing stuff being made from the Pistons.

EDIT: Fantasic work on Rupture Farms people. Let me know if you need anything, i'm always happy to help
