OmiChron Posted March 28, 2012 Share Posted March 28, 2012 I am indescribably keen for this! I'm really disappointed that I didn't discover this earlier though... I'd love to help out with future projects if I can! On a side note, I had an idea for your server (merely my two cents); maybe you could have it as a survival smp/adventure map, but no building/destroying unless part of the adventure. We could RP and everything... But that is a little too much for a month...If this is unfeasable, when the server goes down and the map is put up, may I host my own public server for that map? Credit would be listed where credit is due, of course, and it wouldn't be a dedicated server.Thanks! Omicron Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FireEmblem Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) can't wait to see the final product. the skins look great and the things you guys are doing looks spectacular. 3d modeling is definitely a big move but i don't doubt you. like i said, can't wait to see it.

Click Posted April 12, 2012 Share Posted April 12, 2012 (edited) I've started on a Bionicle Minecraft M0D if you want to use that. I will be including tools, powered masks, maybe elemental powers, Rahi, Matoran, and maybe eventually Bohrok, Rahkshi, and more. I won't have much of a chance to start this week, but next week I should have some progress with weapons.

Mesonak Posted April 17, 2012 Share Posted April 17, 2012 Quick status update for everyone on the movies progress;Editing and work on the CGI is going along as fast as they can be; nothing bad to report that's holding up progress, but at the same time, few good things to report either. This is, after all, the most tedious part of working on the movie and the part that the team at large has little to no control over. Regardless, when we do have an update for you, I'll let you all know. @Click: Thanks for letting us know, it looks very impressive. I look forward to see where you go with it. -Mesonak The Three Virtues YouTube Channel ----- ----- Check it out for laughs, discussion, and more.

Mesonak Posted May 6, 2012 Share Posted May 6, 2012 (edited) Quick status update for you guys; progress has been coming along as fast as possible (to our knowledge, anyways) - contact with Var has been limited, but from what we've heard, work has been going along at a steady pace. Both CGI animation and actual post-production editing of the movie are all that we're working on at this juncture, since those are the only things standing in the way of the release.Naturally, we want to put out a good product for you guys and not a rushed, sloppily edited movie that people will probably find fault in. We shoot for the best if we're capable of achieving it. We've always abided by that philosophy, and this is no exception.Progress updates incoming as we receive them. Thanks for your patience. -Mesonak Edited May 6, 2012 by Mesonak The Three Virtues YouTube Channel ----- ----- Check it out for laughs, discussion, and more.

OmiChron Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 (edited) Hey TTV crew!I heard in one of your videos that you wanted something that could alter biomes. Check this out: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1119044-tool-biome-painter-08-edit-your-minecraft-worlds-biomes/ . This program can alter snow/rain, grass, water and leaf shades, as well as wood textures.This combined with MCEdit could make Le- and Ko- Wahis more accurate for the adventure map/server release. I was thinking Le-Wahi could be a mix of swamp and jungle biomes for accuracy. Maybe the jungle floor can have a marsh (swampwater and lillypads); but again this falls to you.I hope this is of some help! Let me know if I can aid in any way! Thanks for your time!Nepak/Omi Edited May 29, 2012 by Omicron7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

man774 Posted June 4, 2012 Share Posted June 4, 2012 The following answers a few Frequently Asked Questions about BioCraft Chronicles. Decided it'd be in our best interest to post this to avoid some confusion on the part of our fans.Q: What is BioCraft?A: Good question. BioCraft Chronicles is a comedic retelling of the first year of the BIONICLE storyline. It will have many serious elements, but we plan to tell the story with our own comedic spin. Some were disappointed with the teaser trailer in that it featured a scene from Onua (which has since been changed) that confused them as to what genre of movie this would be. This was never intended to be anything other than a comedic retelling, which is why we have tried from the beginning to make that clear.Q: Can I help with the movie?A: Absolutely. If you'd like to help, let me know; some requirements would be that you own MineCraft (obviously), can work under orders from the Director, and have Skype or, as an alternative, Teamspeak. As we near the conclusion of filming the movie, there are several "extra" roles that our fans could help us with. If you think you could be of assistance, send me a Personal Message and I'll forward it to the rest of the team.Q: When is the movie being released?A: The original gameplan was end-of-summer 2011 (September), but due to unforseen problems, this deadline was not met. Usually large-scale projects that suffer a release setback are doomed to fail due to a variety of reasons, but rest assured this is not the case with BioCraft. The movie is still on track, and will be released sometime this Fall. I wish I could give you a better estimate on when exactly that is, but I can't until circumstances allow me too. Expect another trailer soon. ;)Q: Why have there been so few updates on the movies progress?A: For those that have been following the movie's progress, lack of a consistent place to update our fans has hindered us a bit. But now that BZPower is back in full swing, we can hopefully reach our audience and provide many more frequent status updates leading up to the movie's release.Q: Can I join this server?A: We get this question a lot, and I feel it has to be addressed. This is not a server, this is a comedic retelling of the 2001 storyline of BIONICLE. However, due to fan demand, when the movie is completed and released we will be looking to temporarily rent a dedicated server, featuring an accurate map of Mata Nui, complete with all set pieces from the movie and more for our fans enjoyment. As with helping with the movie, more details available as it becomes necessary. :)Q: Will there be a sequel?A: Good question. We at BioCraft prefer not to overload ourselves with too many ideas, or else our current project may suffer in numerous ways. Depending on the reception Chronicles receives, we are considering the possibility of doing more movies, starting with the 2006 year of BIONICLE. It's been a blast working on Chronicles, and I'd value the opportunity to do this again. But, as I said, let's not get ahead of ourselves. :PThat's a wrap for this post; hope as many people see this as possible. If you know anyone that follows BioCraft's progress, spread this around. I'm sure it could answer some peoples' questions. And if you have a valid question, PM it to me or post it in the topic and I'll amend this.See you soon,The BioCraft Chronicles Team are you going to make it so we can download it after it's done?

P~M Posted June 5, 2012 Share Posted June 5, 2012 If you do put a server up, you should probably whitelist it. This kid of thing would not stand up well to griefing.And if you do do that, I wanna be on it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mesonak Posted June 6, 2012 Share Posted June 6, 2012 are you going to make it so we can download it after it's done?It would be fun to play survival on this map in SSP. Will you put it up for download?As we've said numerous times, yeah, the map will be put up for download once the museum server is ended. Once the map is put up for download that's going to end our slew of post-release content for Biocraft: Chronicles.If you do put a server up, you should probably whitelist it. This kid of thing would not stand up well to griefing.And if you do do that, I wanna be on it. They're not going to white-list it but they will disable the ability to place or remove blocksActually, white-listing is a fairly good idea. You guys could just send us a message and be like "I'd like to join the server, I'm a Biocraft fan!" and we'd add you.

The movie covers the most of the storyline of 2001 and combines two perspectives of different groups of characters. Half of the movie will be centered around the Toa (the Quest of the Toa storyline) and the other half will be centered around the Matoran (the MNOG storyline).
