<br />
It has been a long time (for internet clocks, at least) since the last post. Anyway, for now it is unlikely that I will keep this going: lately I have been able to find a (more or less) stable job, and when I come back home I tend to find little joy in playing with the computer, specially with Minecraft. Not because of the game, but because I am tired enough to not want to "keep working" (making my own house, automatization of the place, etc...) and, if I want to play a computer game, I tend to go for simple and short ones if possible. Not to mention the gym will open up this monday, so that means, essentially, I have less than 12 free hours between monday and friday, clearly not enough to make a let's play or similar things.<br />
<br />
Anyway, I won't say this is the end of this project: as the title says, it is just an hiatus, and I might go back to it later, but for now that's it.<br />
<br />
Thanks to you all for watching the previous videos, thanks for all the likes, and thanks for your patience. I hope it was at least half as funny for you as it was for me making it, and I'm sorry I didn't got around to make that multi-dimension operation based around of traincraft. I got it all to work with the trains & zeppelin mod, but simply put, I had no free time to play it.Ianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08412884257957808417noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369091982857169401.post-1983667829619715822012-07-16T14:37:00.000-07:002012-07-16T14:37:40.699-07:00Summer pauseIt has been ten days since the last post, so I think I should give some status update:<br />
<br />
I've been out of town for a week, and I'm still "landing" back home, also Star Trek Online released Season 6 with the starbases (and I am an officer in two fleets, damn myself XD). That points very badly to my capability of sustaining any streaming, at least for now.<br />
<br />
That being said, I'd like to "leak" some of future projects: I will try to make a custom map to show some of the possibilities of the train mods I use (essentially railcraft and steve's carts), adding the possibilities of the <a href="http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/270332-125forgesspsmpcarts-couplingrailcraft-compatibletrains-and-zeppelin-mod209/">Zeppelin and trains mod</a>, not because it adds any new stuff to the game in the core of it, but because I always liked trains (ok, my father never let me play with the train models we had, so its a little a kid's frustration :) ), and the mod adds a lot of other possibilities.<br />
<br />
To increase the easiness of distributing this, and since my talent when merging mods is untested thanks to my lazyness, I will be using <a href="http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/876538-direwolf20s-lets-play-minecraft-v125-season-4/">Direwolf20's let's play</a> (season 4) setup. I will explore the needed avenues to add the trains mod, anyway. We shall see, and the trains mod is not really a priority now, since the main one should be the working of trains!<br />
<br />
I will see to try this for September, first with some videos, and finally with the map files, but I make no promises ^^. Also, my next video (a bunch of them, really) is more than likely going to be about Star Trek and the fleet starbases.Ianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08412884257957808417noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369091982857169401.post-5015602133521084982012-07-06T12:00:00.000-07:002012-07-06T12:00:03.802-07:00Minecraft Let's Play season 3, Episode 75<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<br />
Finally it's here, the last episode of the season, at least for a while. Castle Black is nearly unplayable with 13 FPS at best when recording, and strangely enough almost the same when not. It was a fun project, though, and I enjoyed the complete simplification of the geothermal plant.<br />
<br />
Of course, I know I didn't touch several parts of the mods: I barely scratched the surface of Forestry's beekiping or its alternate fuel system (frankly, I prefer to use solar energy), I used Buildcraft's blueprints only once, and thaumcraft was merely exploited. As for Mystcraft, it has a lot of potential, specially since you can set up your base in the main world and then expand to others, but alas I see more potential for that mod in a server, specially with the latest releases and the portals. That, by the way, is something that can be said also from Railcraft, which is a great mod (and I cannot wait to see it with <a href="http://trains-and-zeppelin.wikispaces.com/Download">Trains and Zeppelin</a> in my computer), but I feel it would show all its potential in a big server.<br />
Unlike on previous let's play series, Industrialcraft took a second place, being there only for the automated processing system and almost nothing else, while Buildcraft became a silent witness of the time passed: my quarries were not 64x64, but they were close to 50x50.<br />
As for Redpower 2, I never went ahead and used the computer, because I was waiting to be able to install the next version (prerrelease 5b2), something I never came around, mostly because I was waiting for a new version of IDResolver that still has not been released. I suppose I could go ahead and make my own config file, but I hate looking at lines of code.<br />
Strangely enough, the mod I reached "endgame" with was Equivalent Exchange: we reached a point where producing massive amounts of EMC was customary, and we got a quickstart thanks to the two condenser chests and the darkroom generator trick. At the time of closing this episode, besides all the Mk3 collectors and all the other stuff (essentially throwing away diamonds like they were cobblestone), I had more than 10 stacks of Red Matter, plus four fully charged Klein Star Spheres. Way past "creative mode" thanks to the red matter items (and the elemental cutter from Thaumcraft), the portable transmutation tablet and the ender pouches.<br />
<br />
Anyway, it has been a fun season, with more things going on than I thought I would, and I expect to release one or two more Minecraft-related videos during the summer, but until october its quite unlikely that I will start another let's play.<br />
For you that have been there since episode one, thanks. I hope you got some tricks and thought of better ones, and that you liked it enough to come back for more in the future.<br />
And remember people, have fun! Because if you don't enjoy what you do, where's the point?Ianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08412884257957808417noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369091982857169401.post-25312050319665070922012-07-04T12:00:00.000-07:002012-07-04T12:00:01.847-07:00Minecraft Let's Play season 3, Episode 74<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Well, here goes more building of the latest parts of the castle. In the next episode - the last- I will be crafting an electrical generator based on my old "geothermal generator" idea, but using some energy collectors and a condenser to produce lava buckets that will be placed on the geothermal generators from IC2. Then it will be just a matter of setting some place with the production systems and wire it all, and we'll be ready!Ianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08412884257957808417noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369091982857169401.post-14891864550245347302012-07-02T12:00:00.000-07:002012-07-02T12:00:05.592-07:00Minecraft Let's Play season 3, Episode 73 First of all, I'd like to announce that this season is coming to an end: as soon as I finish the "Castle Black" project, it will be done (which I intend to have ready for episode 75).<br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Second, due to several other reasons and projects, I don't have time to keep the series going, and the next two episodes will go from the usual "episode per day" to "episode each every two days". So, if everything goes according to plan, episode 74 will be released on Wendnesday and 75 will be released on Friday (it is very likely that the last one won't be released at noon, too).</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Third, a port of Tale of Kingdoms to Minecraft 1.2.5 has been released <a href="http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1089529-tale-of-kingdoms-v130unofficial-update/page__hl__%20kingdoms">here</a>, I don't know how it was published without me noticing it for months, but better late than never, I suppose :S</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Finally, episode 73, where we start the rail system and keep building. By the way, remember I am using outdated versions of a lot of mods! So it is very likely that the latest version of Steve's Minecarts will have some sort of extra options to tell the cart assembler to stop moving forward if it needs some materials, or even to go back to get more.<br />

More building, and a realization: the provider pipes, while more convenient than chassi pipes + modules, have the small problem of taking the first item first, so I cannot use them with condensers. Thus, I will have to change it!<br />
<br />
My project will be using MK1 chassi pipes (redstone-based) with a provider module (duh! >.<) for small EMC items, and MK2 (Iron-based) with both a provider and an itemsink module for the EMC expensive ones (diamonds and the like). Obviously, there will be a destination for "useless" items: either a furnace or a condenser.Ianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08412884257957808417noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369091982857169401.post-19146992097311950612012-06-29T12:00:00.000-07:002012-06-29T12:00:03.849-07:00Minecraft Let's Play season 3, Episode 70<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Bees, bugs and buildings! Yeah, this seems like an S&P definition (BBB... oh dear...) XD.

More Castle Black! We are going to exploit our ingenuity and to abuse all the great toys and ideas Buildcraft gives us, not to mention the other mods that will allow us to build impressive engineering tasks without effort!<br />
Of course, I know I can just charge up my Volcanite Amulet and fill the bottom of the hole with lava... but why bother, if I can set up a system that will do it for me while I build other parts of the keep?<br />

The IC2 Teleporting system begins to be made! Of course, I will have to make another on the "other side" (which I call "Castle Black", as I told in a previous episode), which means I need to start making stuff like a madman, but for now, I suppose all is OK. Now I only need to think if I can make some sort of system to keep the manual work to the bare minimum...Ianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08412884257957808417noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369091982857169401.post-40122257815835525772012-06-17T12:00:00.000-07:002012-06-17T12:00:00.797-07:00Minecraft Let's Play season 3, Episode 58<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Cropping... and the start of new projects!<br /><br />
Also, I published a new video on Star Trek Online about the new ship, the Armitage-class heavy carrier escort (essentially, an egineering version of the Multivector assault escort, with a torpedo spam console and one hangar bay, with the skin of an Akira-class heavy escort). You can find it <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=x5z9eT02go8">here</a>.Ianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08412884257957808417noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369091982857169401.post-66549782657293997762012-06-16T12:00:00.000-07:002012-06-16T12:00:03.515-07:00Minecraft Let's Play season 3, Episode 57<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

The railcraft project about making a tour around the mob spawner gets done in this episode. It is actually very straightforward, but it demands time.<br />
<br />
As for the next episodes, I will start with IC2 crosbreeding, keep the beekeeping and start with the reactor breeder, plus I intend to start a big project that I will be starting now with some clearing and filling (nothing fancy, just a filler first programmed to clear and then to fill the bottom of the cleared area).Ianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08412884257957808417noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369091982857169401.post-59818432733441000732012-06-15T12:00:00.000-07:002012-06-15T12:00:03.591-07:00Minecraft Let's Play season 3, Episode 56<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Main door as a wall. I am sure next time I try to make a base, I will go for castle walls 3 blocks deep made with basalt, so I can hide everything I need inbetween... Specially the main door!<br />
<br />
Also, here you can see a screenshot of the circuit I'm using for this. It does not have a self-reset part, but it is as easy as connecting a timer to the toggle latch, so after 4-5 seconds the other engine will work.<br />
Also, after testing, you can set the State Cell at 3.6 seconds and the timer at 0.8 seconds.<br />

More stuff being done. Essentially, beekeeping work (a new set of apiaries automated outside of the house, the finding of the rest of the bees you can get with the scoop, that kind of things).<br />
Also, I tried to update to a new version of the mods, but I was taken down miserably due to several ID issues (priceless to see Coal and Charcoal with strange icons, and redstone as iron gears...), and I will mention it in the next episode. However, I am aware Pahimar released a new 4096 ID fix, and I will try to look if I can use it and update the mods without a great derp... I can live with some mod-ID swapping (it's just a matter of patiente, a little NEI help, and much, much patiente if it brokes something like the automated crafting system), but having base resources bugged is something I don't even know how to look at.<br />
<br />
Also, expect new Mystcraft content if I can update succesfully. The only thing I need to cross my fingers about is ID Resolver working, and Railcraft's NEI module being accesible again (the ling seems broken after the ad.fly banner).Ianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08412884257957808417noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369091982857169401.post-1723542401862782542012-06-13T12:00:00.000-07:002012-06-13T12:00:03.509-07:00Minecraft Let's Play season 3, Episode 54<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Today we will finish the carpenter project and make an automated system for two Railcraft's Coke Oven. In the next episode I might change things a little, to include the blast furnace into the crafting system (since the burning of iron into the steel it produces is quick enough, we can go for crafting pipes there). I might also make a good, wide door for us to use.Ianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08412884257957808417noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7369091982857169401.post-86892318574648515682012-06-12T12:00:00.000-07:002012-06-12T12:00:04.776-07:00Minecraft Let's Play season 3, Episode 53<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

Carpenter Project, I choose you! I mean, today's episode will have me fooling around the carpenter placing and finishing some little details on the basalt tower near my main tower...Ianhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08412884257957808417noreply@blogger.com0
