Linux Minecraft; Official Bit-tech server

Thanks for the tip re: building in thin air Ok so ive explored a bit, cleared a bajillion trees... and discovered the coolest waterfall , its impressively high. I'm gonna leave it there, and build the bridge starting from the stop of the waterfall. See pic : http://img269.imageshack.us/img269/2305/waterfallstart.jpg

So yeh, i'm a little excited about the bridge

EDIT: Finished first row across the top, now I can actually start sculpting a bridge of sorts (http://img593.imageshack.us/img593/4606/firstcrossing.png)

Once completed, it should look somewhat like this : http://i15.photobucket.com/albums/a369/canberraboy/P1030805.jpg

I'm off to bed, good night all

 

You're off to a good start. I think your bridge will look quite spectacular crossing there.

Have you seen the two other bridges we built on the old server?
I hope they'll get transported across soon along with all our other stuff.

Edit: On a different note. Once I'm done with my casino, I want to build this: http://no.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fil:Turning_Torso_2.jpg How to realize it in Minecraft though...

 

Never saw the bridges on the old server so hoping they do come across to this one so I can see them

I am not sure how you will be able to recreate that building? I am guessing that it should be possible but due to the blocky look of Minecraft it might look a bit strange close-up although from a distance it should look ok

I really need to get back on and do some more work on my little house and decide what else to include there with it
Just a heads up to say that I might not get on much over the next week or so as the other half decided we are having the week off for christmas shopping etc.....

 

I came back on after you finished and it does look incredibly well done!

 

Hooray, I'm on MeTube! Too bad I was the first to loose

That said, more spleef! We need more arena's...
2p 3p 4p and 5p or something.. maybe more

 

I really need to start playing MC more.. kind of gone off of it
interested in WoW atm :'(

 

wicked,

leave the tunnel and i'll get to it in a day or two. i'm planning to make it underground to allow more space above ground for building work.

 

give me a poke and i'll come help as always



J the bar has been set

 

Fixed.

Nice, but I'm not sure about the bit at the end - rather drastic

 

TWSS

 

i've also been building a bridge. it's not really the same style, but i guess you can come and have a look for some ideas and inspiration. it's near warp 5

 

Oh trust me I've read just about everything from page one of this thread and understand the cautiousness towards giving out the IP. I've been doing more reading than writing on tech forums lately due to lack of time but I'll do my best. I used to be a moderator over at Overclock3D.net for a short while. But like I said life changed suddenly and I was no longer able to do so.

Anyway keep up all the good and cool work! I've enjoyed seeing the progress from the cartographs and screenshots so far.

 

the boat ride is cool. itd be neat if it started and ended in the bumper boat pond. then we'd just have to keep the pond stocked and all a guy would have to do is grab a boat and take a watervator up to the top of the ride.

 

Thanks for the invite Stiketh! I appreciate that!

I don't know how much time I can manage, but I thought about maybe building roads between downtown and out into the fields, to other projects and so on.. Was first thinking of maybe 5 or 7 block wide, then later we could lay out some tracks with boosters here and there like public transportation of some sort. What do you others think? Any place I should be building towards first?

Personally, for me and my 4 year old son, a Transport Tycoon/Minecraft fusion would be the match made in heaven, but I gues we'll have to settle for carts.. ..oh well..

 

We're looking at using minecart mania plugin (if it works) whereby boosters and brakes are decided upon the type of block the track is laid over. Hopefully an update this week will solve most of out boat, minecart and block respawn issues

Hoping on now to play some spleef!

 

The update to fix the bugs is coming tomorrow

Been using Minecart mania on my test server, works pretty well but I don't think it can be install as a hMod you have to actually replace the main jar file from memory...

Gold block to make you go fast and gravel to slow the cart again as well as chests to dispense the carts


EDIT: After another quick look seems if your running MCAdmin it can be installed just like hMod just drop it in the mods folder

 

does that mean we won't be able to connect while we wait for mods to be updated?

 

Does this also mean that IF it were night time, we would have zombies, or are they turned off?

 

New carto, 5.5mb warning!
