Unofficial Minecraft Thread 49

A notice: Jamies has been overrun by Viagra bots, so we've moved all server discussion on to http://z15.invisionfree.com/BGSF_Minecraft/index.php? forum. Thank you for your cooperation.

Admins: These people act as a House of Lords to the decision making process; they are able to veto decisions that they would consider detrimental or negative to the health of the server, however most decisions made by the Council will be passed. They will also maintain the server and have the final say in issues regarding moderating.

Bonemonster
Mrtankjump

The Modlist:

These players are the moderators for the server and have almost as much power as an Admin. Please respect them (list subject to change due to inactivity):


None for now.

Council: Decision making representatives of the player-base. These members are put forward by the players to represent them, but the final decision on appointment falls on the Admins and existing council members. Except in extreme conditions, the decision of this group will determine any changes to the server

The council is defunct for now as it is inactive. I will make decisions based on what the community desires and by what we really need. If the players still want a council then an election poll should be made over at the new forum.

The Memberlist is as follows (Will be updated at times)

SimpsonFly - SimpsonFly
Skoomaholics Anonymous - Skoomaholic
Colonel Martyr - Justin_Martyr
Allstarn08 - Allstarn
Lemunde - Lemunde
dudeordudet? - Keywork100992
SkyShadowing - SkyShadowing (or doofus)
Venq - Uberjuntti
Saurok - Saurok
Povuholo - Povuholo
Terpy - Terpy
Shaker25 - Shaker25
Gordsstaman - dja_hel
blademaster07 - blademaster07
deadspartan24 - deadspartan24
Gamemastr35 - Gamemastr35

Server IP:PORT 88.198.17.4:25500

1.8 Update notice: We will be getting a new map for 1.8. So we can start fresh with all of the new systems that will be in place.

Damn, there are a lot more people on our server than I thought there were.

Anyways, for those who did not know, there is a small underground room near the removed eyesore that is filled with chests of cobble and such. While Martyr may have destroyed every individual piece of the tower itself, I'd say if you need cobble, that's where it is.

Also, excuse any spelling errors, just got a Droid and making a post from it.

I created my own texture pack just for kicks. Not my best work but I'm kinda proud of it.

I'm not to big on the liquidy 'goopy' ore vein look, and the lava looks a little funny, but over all, I find it very eye appealing compared to default.

So I downloaded the Earth map, started a new game, spawned in Los Angeles, decided to make my goal be to reach New Zealand, realised the map wasn't a globe so stopped trying to traverse the Pacific, reached the east coast of the US (took a loooooooooong time), set up a little camp, saved and quit.

Started up again.

Sign in front of me.

"Los Angeles"

It's all pre-generated, so mods that add things like minerals, or Millenaires mod won't work with it.

I had a good idea that about that many were on. during my work days I only get the chance to get on when the server is most quite, although I see atleast five or six different people log in and out because they probably did not like how few people there were, if most people had the patience the server would have a decent amount of people on most round the clock.

speaking of which. I would like to make a suggestion Bone. maybe there should be a roster of some sort similar to how Antibody keeps track of the shared map on these threads but more or less encouraging people to post when they are normally on or when they plan to be on, that way people could more easily log in when others are on...

Edit: purely optional of course, no need to Tban any one or what ever if they don't. just an idea to help get people already white listed to show up more often.

I hope that was coherent.

@dudeordudet: thanks, like I said though I don't deserve much credit for the texture because I was recreating a similar style some one else made, the cobblestone I made my self without seeing any one else do that style but I am sure its been done. Oh, and obsidian, I really like my original design for obsidian, maybe I will post a screen at a time which seems less MC;pic spam.

Thanks! I cranked it out in 18 hours, give or take a little bit. I'm about to edit the pack right now to make new ores, since that seems to be the biggest gripe people have with it.

Will those just be alt textures for the ores? I really like them how they are.

Yeah, just for ores. I think the alt also includes the pumpkins being bump-mapped since I forgot to do that in the original.

I'm kinda sad that people don't like the original ores, the most of my time was spent on them. I tried to give them the whole "cracked with something underneath" look, but I guess it flopped pretty badly. Oh well, svcks to svck.

I found out I can't use my own texture pack. I look at everything and point out all the little imperfections, it drives me insane being surrounded by my own work :P

Well the thing is this isn't the type of game where you need other people on to do something. Most people just hop on and work on their own projects. I don't really see many collaborative projects except for outposts but even then everyone pretty much just picks a building or a house and builds it. No need for anyone else to be on for that.

On a related note I'm in a bit of a slump on what to build on the server. The last few times I've been on I've just been running around looking at everyone else's stuff.

I'm even worse than that. I'll usually log on, harvest my farms and then wander around my tower for 5 minutes before logging off again. SSP mods are keeping me entertained for now, and I'm counting on 1.8 and a new map to get me back into multiplayer.

yeah, but some people just like to be on when other people are on. I do most of my hard work when alone on server and then goof off when others come around.

I like being on when others are on. Makes you remember it's multiplayer, not single. Nice to chat and read when mindlessly laying flooring.
