Minecraft - OWF server -

dripik · #**2581** 06-12-2012, 08:30 AM

Also, can we have your recordings of the stronghold adventure?

Crashpunk · #**2582** 06-12-2012, 11:31 PM

They are all recorded with fraps so they are huge in file size. It would take ages to send.

I apologies for not editing them quick. For one thing, like I said i've been busy. After my exams, i'll upload the video.

out of curiosity how long did you guys have to wait before you could join the server?

I've sent a pm to Havoc and have been waiting for nearly two weeks and I still haven't been contacted about it

how do you think I knew to pm havoc then?

Crashpunk · #**2586** 06-18-2012, 07:48 AM

Obviously need to wait until you become more of a popular member really. We can't have literally everyone on the sever.

I haven't? Could have sworn I had, but I may be confused. In any case, I hadn't even seen you around this place yet, never read a post you had written so I don't feel particularly inclined to allow you on the server yet. Stick around and you'll be allowed on eventually.

xXxrenhoekxXx · #**2588** 06-20-2012, 05:24 AM

okay that's fine.
I normally stick around the modding and fan corner threads and only been here for a couple of months, so I'll see you around hopefully.

Havoc · #**2589** 06-20-2012, 02:15 PM

I don't go there very often lately, which might explain me not seeing you

. But I'm sure Dark and Splat would gladly vouch for you when the time is right.

Crashpunk · #**2590** 06-21-2012, 02:30 AM

Well here it is. The first part of the Stronghold raid.
I'm sorry it took a while but I have almost 2 hours of footage and my voice is hard to edit in. (I recorded it separately) I've also cut a lot of because some of it wasn't really 'Entertaining'.
Rendering the video took about an hour and the upload took about 2 hours because of the HD Quality - That and my Internet is a pile of shit. so that's another reason why it's been so long.

Anyway, Enjoy. More should be coming really soon

The thumbnail is perfect

Looking back now, I sounded like an idiot. XD

DarkHoodness · #**2592** 06-21-2012, 08:38 AM

@Hulaa - I still can't believe you don't know what poppadoms are. :P You're missing out.

Good work, Crashpunk - It really seems you had lots of fun.

Shame I couldn't make it in time.

Splat · #**2593** 06-21-2012, 08:39 AM

We were all too polite to tell you.

Actually I think that every time. I wouldn't lose sleep over it.
(Video is still loading for me)

And the prize for the girliest scream goes to...

Brilliant video, Crashpunk. Can't wait for Part the Two.

Hehe, locking Wil in that room and taking the button off the wall...

Crashpunk · #**2594** 06-21-2012, 09:47 AM

Cheers. Yeah I'm really sad you couldn't make it Edd.

No you sound fine; At least you have the guts to talk. I find it really hard to talk to people on Skype or Steam chat because of my speech impediment.

I dunno if you've notice but I don't really talk because of it.

dripik · #**2595** 06-21-2012, 10:59 AM

I don't know, I never really noticed anything strange in your speech at all. Your commentary in your LPs are as good speechwise as any other video, I'd say.

The video is great - "Wario, your name is in the way!" sounds like a great catchphrase in retrospect.

I finally started constructing the Exodus train station. I'll need some brick blocks again, might go on a quest to collect clay again, but donations are very welcome too, along with sandstone.

DarkHoodness · #**2596** 06-21-2012, 11:11 AM

Oh I can help with that a little later if you'd like since I've mastered how to harvest clay and sandstone.

Splat · #**2597** 06-21-2012, 01:15 PM

I think I used up all my reserves of brick for the tunnel under the cathedral; I even cannibalised one of my old constructions. But great to hear it's happening. I'll drop by and check it out when I can.

Havoc · #**2598** 06-21-2012, 01:35 PM

I went exploring, found the Jungle biome and decided that it needed a better way to get there. So it now has a stargate. Enjoy!

Google'd it after the video, some sort of Indian cracker thing apparently. ._.

Crashpunk · #**2600** 06-22-2012, 12:54 PM

Part 2 is coming soon

I just want to ask, would it be possible to get the Ma' Spa world as a seprate save file which can be used in Single-Player. I ask because once I've finished the Temple of Time, I want to upload it around the net and get some downloads

Oh and the fact that Wario Fort is my best house i've ever lived in on Minecraft and I want to have a back-up of it.

DarkHoodness · #**2601** 06-22-2012, 04:24 PM

Thanks to the power of world downloader and MC edit, I can give you a save file with just those on. Or separately. Your choice.

dripik · #**2602** 06-23-2012, 02:00 AM

I'm out on a mission to gather clay and any other materiel that might help connecting Exodus to the Ma'Spa train network. I revisited the Marlow Oil Rig near Exodus and remembered that it is located above an abandoned mine, so I collect as many tracks as I can.

Upon exploring beyond the fearful world chunk border, I found many lakes with clay underneath, so I moved into a cave and started manufacturing bricks as well. That's a very interesting mountainy area by the way. Some seems to have been there before me, apparently, I've seen cobblestone blocks placed here and there, to make traversing the area easier.

Separately would be great. I'll let you know once I've finished the Temple of Time.

I have a friend who's getting into the game and would really like to see the server. What's the policy on getting him whitelisted for a short time just so I can show him 'round briefly? If I promise to keep an eye on him? (He's a nice guy, and I'd trust him not to break anything.)

OANST · #**2605** 06-23-2012, 09:19 AM

The policy is NO!

Sending me the world files and me setting up the old server is an alternate solution, something that I wanted to do anyway, since I also have a friend who is interested in seeing the map.

DarkHoodness · #**2607** 06-23-2012, 12:26 PM

Actually why are friends of regulars not allowed on, even to be shown around? Seems a little over-protective if you ask me. I only uphold that policy 'cause it's always been done, but it seems a little redundant nowadays... We didn't have a problem with tda and missph. Or Havoc's friend even though he didn't stay for long.

EDIT: In fact I had one of my friends wanting to do that a while back, I ought to get back to him on that really. But yeah, if everyone else is fine with it I can whitelist your friends if you'd like, send me a PM. It's funny that all of us minecraft server mods have wanted to do this but we've not done it 'cause "that's not the way it's done!". lol

EDIT 2: Also I'm thinking about opening up the prototype RuptureFarms for people to add to it if they'd like. Seems such a waste for all my effort to just be a "practice" even if I made a popular machinima out of it. By letting people do this if they'd like, I may also get a little inspiration for it too for the "real" Minecraft RF.

Crashpunk · #**2608** 06-24-2012, 02:36 AM

I showed my mate personally around the server via my account - He then took over my account and started to chat to Wil

It saved time PMing people asking if he could log on but If it's apparently not a problem to invite some friends onto the server for a little bit, I'll do that next time.

Havoc · #**2609** 06-24-2012, 04:41 AM

Since we're on the subject I might as well throw this out there:

Me and Dark (still waiting for input from Dripik) have been brainstorming about getting the server a bit more active. Right now our private club is pretty small, causing us to under utilize the server and the huge world we have at our disposal. One of the ideas was to open the server up some more. Between making it completely public and easing up on the whitelist requirements, I think most of us would like the latter. I'll be installing a couple of plugins that will prevent grieving and destruction in either case.

I would like to ease up the whitelist so that first of all, friends of whitelisted members are allowed on. But also have forum members that have contributed 50+ (or something) non-spammy posts allowed on the server. The current rule of 'being a valued member of OWF' is kind of vague. With the new plugins there is no more risk of destruction and we would have a bigger audience to show our creations to (and possibly help out with).

Splat · #**2610** 06-24-2012, 04:49 AM

I'd say if it's evident that people haven't joined the forums just to get on the server, then that's cool. And if evidence doesn't suggest them to be a troll.

On the topic of bringing life to the server, what say people to making a new town in the jungle? Give us all something to do.
