Minecraft [see post #1 for MP server info]

When running a reactor you need to have internal cooling ie cooling rods and reactor plates. Exterior cooling wont cut it. Also I'd your going to cool with water. Make sure to have a 3x3 sphere of water so the entire reactor (and it's chambers) are encased in water. Finally, six uranium rods is pushing it :p even with coolant

Wow. Currently exploring the demo here, thought that was huge. Then I open this thread and you've got cake and bunnies and nuclear reactor mods and gods know what. I'm astounded.

So want this game, but given how addictive the demo is, I think I'm better of not getting it.

Edit: just wondering, is there a mod/setting for the full game that makes it impossible to build/destroy blocks with enemies nearby? Always feels like cheating when a zombie or creeper is headed my way in a dungeon and I just grab some cobblestone and wall him off.

Is the server still running? Can't log in on it. Or is it related to the other reports of Client Login trouble. (Like this on minecraftforum.net)

[Geno_Mariner]

Can't log into the server either

And I'm seeing lots of mod usage, may I ask what they are so I can check 'em out?

[Arclight]

Server should be good now, recent power failure and ISP fail messed with the router.

[Arclight]

Just send the server details to mstram, who expressed an interest in having a look around.

I'm using:

Industrial craft 2- adds machines that let you get more yield from mining, adds automated mining, and several end game pieces of armor. It also adds power to run the machines(from coal generators, to wind generators, to nuclear power). Also adds a minIng drill and chainsaw


Red power2- Adds compressed red stone logic circuits(and, or, nor, timers, etc) that fit into 1 block space, red stone lights, red stone alloy(works like regular rs, but you can run it up walls and on roofs) half blocks, corner blocks, panels, volcanoes, gemstones(work like diamond but with less durability). Also adds a sorting machine.

Buildcraft- adds pipes for pumping stuff, oil which you can refine to fuel. More automated mining(less precise than industrial crafts) automated building systems.

Railcraft- adds more rails, coke(burns longer than coal), more carts, let's you automate rail systems with fancy sensors.

Laser mod- adds different lasers for different things.

Forestry mod- Automates plant growing, adds bees.

Equivilant exchange- adds alchemy from full metal alchemist(can turn materials into other items) also adds some nifty late game equipment

CJB- adds a bunch of smaller mods(minI map, etc).

Treecapitator- hit a tree with an axe and get all the wood(like terraria)

Somnia- Simulates the world while you sleep(Ovens still burn, etc) also lets you sleep at any time.

Computercraft- adds a programmable computer( think dos) letting you write your own programs( you could have it so that you need to type a password for a door to open, etc.)

Wireless redstone- self explanatory

Advanced Machines- adds higher end machines to industrial craft

Force field- adds force fields to industrial craft

Power crystals buildcraft/ industrial craft crossover. Let's you use industrial craft power to run buildcraft engines, and adds a way to use fuel to create energy.

Teleport pipes- adds teleport pipes to buildcraft

Zepplin mod- look it up, it's pretty cool

Elevator mod

And then a couple mods to get everything running

You can connect to the real Internet to download new APIs(and I think OSes) in game, with it. There is also a text based version of Minecraft, and a snake game.



Edit: woot, 2500 posts and a new picture.

I have no idea why, but I've followed the instructions to install everything including the modloaders into the right place but Minecraft is still crashing on me. There weren't any previous mods since I've recently nuked and clean-installed my computer...

If only there was a one-click install for everything... one of my friends made something like it back then for his server's players. Dunno if it'd make much difference, I tried Buildcraft's auto installer and it still crashed.

I'm uploading my Mod compilation now for Task, I was just contemplating making an exe, but I need to look into how hard it is to do that. If anything you can just extract the file I upload over your MC folder.


Edit: Windows comes with Iexpress, give me a moment of mucking aboot and I'll see what I can pump out.

[Spike88]

I'm uploading the pack now, the password is all lower case and is the typical one used for everything Subsim related.

Admit it, you feel this way also.


Operation Vader, Plan B.


Inspiration struck when reading this thread.

More Nuclear testing.

Here I set up a nuclear reactor in the center of a Testificate village to see the damage. Note that the hole would be deeper if Flat world generation did not have a layer of obsidian so close to the surface.



Here I was experimenting with a safety switch. A wood block(flamable) was put near the reactor with a redstone torch on it. The hopes was that if the block caught on fire, it would drop it's torch, toggling an OR gate and shutting off the reactor. Sadly, the reactor exploded first. I may try moving the block closer.

Thanks Spike! I shall download and have fingers crossed it will work and not crash

I plan to try and build a HIFAR if I can find the plans for it. (Or make one as close to HIFAR XD)

EDIT: It worked til it took an arrow to the knee. Okay bad joke XD I played a few minutes of it in single player then it crashed... I used the first install option. Need to work out why this is happening
