My favorite part is the spectator mob-view effects. Endermen, Creepers, and Spiders have unique effects so far, probably more to come.

 

And, of course, the fact that you can possess paintings.

Well, I'm back into the FTB modpacks; currently, I'm working on a clean, efficient, infinite energy source that involves pumping lava out of the depths of The Nether through a Tesseract.

Those who remember back to my old FTB server will remember when I built 64 geothermal generators and had them running nonstop, which resulted in a healthy chunk of the Nether literally being drained dry.

Maybe on your computer, with your internet (though IIRC, Humva's internet wasn't so great either?). =P

I've been watching playthroughs of Attack of the B-Team on YouTube and I know it's Technic and not FtB, but it could still be fun... anyone interested in hosting a server?

What sort of computer requirements would this server need anyway? FTB singleplayer seems to work comfortably with 3GB but I'm not sure how that would translate towards multiplayer requirements?

 

Edit= I ask because I have a spare laptop. It's kinda old but it handled singleplayer FTB okay-ish so it could be an acceptable server.

 

Edit the 2nd= so which pack would we use, FTB Lite, Direwolf20 or monster?

 

Edit the 3rd= actually considering how many people I share my internet connection with this might be a bad idea.

I assume you're referring to my post... I actually was talking about Attack of the B-Team, which is a Technic pack, not a FtB pack.

For a FtB server the main bottleneck is internet connection; two gigs will handle seven or eight players, though you'll need a beastly processor. Ping is really going play a big part in it though, so if you don't have a business connection (I do), you're going run into issues.

Oops my mistake, what's Attack of the B-Team like?

It's mostly a fun modpack, meant to be very different from classic survival Minecraft. Lots of silly mods, not at all balanced (diamonds everywhere), just a lot of fun and games.

Here's the modpack page, with an intro video.

according to Deadline:

Minecraft, one of the hottest video game franchises in the market today, is going to be made into a major motion picture. Warner Bros. just acquired the rights to the wildly popular game from Swedish indie developer Mojang AB (mojang means gadget in Swedish). The property already is getting huge interest from writers and filmmakers as Warners is putting together a live-action version. Roy Lee, who produced the megahit The Lego Movie with Dan Lin and has launched a franchise for Warner Bros, is handling Minecraft for the studio via his Vertigo Entertainment along with Jill Messick (Mean Girls and Mean Moms) who will also produce in some capacity, studio sources said. Jon Berg is the executive in charge at the studio. CAA brokered the deal for the film rights.


honestly this makes even less sense than The Lego Movie did. Minecraft literally has no story. it's a sandbox video game with even more creative limitations than Lego.

How can they make a storyline from a sandbox game?

It would all be a big ball of wibbly-wobbly-timey-wimey stuff. :P

And that is why the movie industry no longer makes sense to me, watch they try to make it 3D as well and have some contest for Steve to be named after a player, for all we know we will be watching some poorly written story with Xxaw3s0m3guy55xX as the star.

Why do I get the impression it would be a youtuber?

About the servers:

You need a lot more than a laptop to host a server. It is recommended that gb of ram for every player be allocated, along with a a x64 system, and a nice gcard.

 

About the movie:

I'm honestly more surprised that a company like Mojang is teaming up with a company like Warner Bros., which kinda goes against Persson's whole philosophy.

They will have to be very creative to pull it off...

Honestly, how are we gonna Surviv(al) this!?

I'm surprised they sold the rights at all; perhaps the never ending fountain of euros in the Mojang office is going dry, need some royalty money to get things going again.

I really doubt that. I have a feeling WB probably approached them and they accepted, seeing the benefits and opportunities (financial and other) that it would bring. But I don't think the kronor are going to stop flowing any time soon. Edited by Monsieur P~M

Hopefully the story is decent and not just "OMG ENDERMEN ARE TAKING OVER THE WORLD".

That, at least, would be better than "OMG ALL THE OTHER UNDEAD MOBS ARE TAKING OVER THE WORLD"...

Anyone know of a mod pack that has Industrialcraft, Thaumcraft 4, Tinkers Construct and some dungeon generating mods? Searching around but can't find one with all these qualities.

I believe the new Mindcrack pack will have all of those, but as far as I know it's not out yet. Should be out soon, though.

 

If you want to play singleplayer, there are tons of ftb packs that have IC2, Tinkers and Thaum, you can just add a dungeon generating moderator.

 

EDIT: The Mindcrack pack is waiting on ICBM to be stable for release, but one of the Mindcrakers said there's the possibility of a release on Friday.

Friday would definitely be a good time. A bit ahead on work at the moment and would love to sit down for a bit with some modded survival.

 

Thank you.

IC2 Experimental is too weird for me. I think I'll wait for IC3 (assuming that's what the next version will be) before really getting into it... at this point it feels like a mix-up of IC2 and the next version. I guess that's the point of an experimental build, though.

 

Anyway, TE and Extra Utilities pretty much cover all the tech stuff I need. The only things IC2 are good for any more is the recycler and the jetpack.
