ZAKHAD

Bin a month - bin watching forgecraft on direwolfs channel alot noticed sotmead's their as well mentioning tfc, watched his on forgecraft and he rebooted tfc lp with florastar, in short that made me want to have a look at tfc again, noticed u guys have moved onto a new thread and have a new website (new server?), basicly looking to be "re"whitelisted If I aint already lol honestly have no idea Nice website btw

Stoped playing for a couple of weeks trying new recently updated mods like forestry/thaumcraft etc ill be back after iv burnt out of em - just a small FYI while iv not been online lately

Just a random thought, Instead of a creeper blowing up and casuing immediate damage to given area of detonation. How about when a creeper detonates it causes a small earthquake that would still damage players from the shockwave, but the main purpose of the shockwave is to expand on the mineshaft system. In which they damage or buckling of support beams. They wouldnt fall down immediately, but u would here a creeking/cracking sound. A new texture, a sound here to indicate that they need immediate attention or they will fail and collasps causing a cave in. Yes I understand this could be cause of massive griefing issue. But to counter that we could have for example, reinforced support beams (More damage resistent vs metal alloy used to reinforce). Distance and or blocks it pass's through negate damage using the blast protection mechanic (e.g. trying to use a creeper next to someones house to cause the supports (inside) to fail on block protected servers. Note u shouldnt have supports outside.... or at least protect em ;P) A hard or hardcore only mechanic in which only players who want to live life on the edge or wanting a more surival based system. But anyways im sure you guys can find a fair system to counter it. The reason I mention this is because Terrafirmacraft does have a fantasy notion in which mobs that dont exactly fit in with the believability of TFC. But they're not exactly going to be removed either. So we to expand upon their purpose, make them more integral into the whole progression system. Causing fallbacks make it necessary and purposeful to have higher tier metals, to reinforce your support beams or even houses heck idk about that, as it maybe abit too far lol, but you get my point. Another mechanic would be that Zombies are there to GRIEF YOU (Hard only), yes you heard it!, they attack support beams passively, when u put a zombie by a door and it trys to path through it starts to attack/chew (they are hungry after all), so the same mechanic could be applied passively a simple change in which support beams have the same API or function that doors have in which zombies can interact with them. Upgrading/Reinforcing giving them a metal edge or something would act as a deterrent again giving purpose to upgrading system. Again with anothr zombie mechanic, in which when a zombie dies it releases gases that are poisonous and pollutes any enclosed location, that is say half way through the first rock layer and downwards. (The aura mechanic from thaumcraft but to how polluted a area is.) This again gives purpose not only to make it more surival like on the harder difficulties, but to make high end metal tier's a purpose in which you would need to craft a ventilation system, or even a simple gas mask or enchantment; if u acutally intend to use enchantments as a utility purpose not as a stat boosting system. These are just idea's and hopefully this wont turn into a flame war and hopefully something constructive, I accept constructive criticism and I respect peoples opinons. But I do not respect outwards disrespect for my idea saying I stole it from someone, because I could simply point to a mod or mechanic and says thats a carbon copy of that (BTW/RP2 windmills). Everybody does it and it's a fact of life. Copying idea's IS NOT BAD, if someone has a good idea take it, they thought of it first yes they milked it for what its worth, doesn't mean u cant use it just makes its less effective or valuable. PS if a mod could change title I mispelt monster

Idd, more info would be nice. Granted I messed up quoting the shader mods bin so long since I used em, only ever got em to work with millenire looked friking awesome tho

Never heard of em, any good youtube links that summerise vechs or whatnot? Yeah u can mine without em, but where do u cross the line between believability vs fantasy in minecraft. Was it not the idea of TFC to make it more believable rather than fantasy? Anotherwords mineshafts should be necessary. Granted supports do need abit of tweaking, but thats why we're talking about TFC features in order to improve it.

Granted the screenshots have water shaders mod and ethers unbeliveable shaders, and sonics shaders as well lols

With sound mods u sort of get that, When close too diying i get heartbeat / wheezing When im hungry every 30 or so seconds u get a stomache rumble Matmos + Auditory + Minecraft sound improvement http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/379925-146-matmos-r21-environmental-sound-atmosphere-simulator/ http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1542510-146-audiotori-r3-cascading-sound-pack-manager/ http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1320619-146-matmos-expansion-minecraft-sound-improvement-custom-music/

Admining a server takes alot of time, i appreicate the feedback u given me and ill give it a playthrough once im whitelisted, btw do u object to Lp'ing on the server? I have atempted a lets play b4 only did a couple of episodes. I stoped cus I was bored playing by myself; in TFC as it takes so long for anything to happen, I really need to play on a server to come back and watch ur crops grown new animals have bread (being optimistic here ofc ). Gunna carry on with my lets play at some point when my friend is free of his IRL problems. There is 1 more question for now, How long is ur year in TFC? and how long is ur day as well, is it traditonal server times? 356days/24000? hours

Ehrm. your introduction post about the server got majorty of my questions. The only thing I might ask, is how you run your more unique features such as claiming land. Whats the general consensious on claiming land in which; when i spawn am I immdiately allowed to claim a area as my own? Or is there a grace peroid in such that after you have concidered me acceptable I will be promoted for granted rights to claim land? I'm abit confused with the whole gem system u have; u allow people to claim land for a price but is that only within a player based town? or does the chunk claiming system take gems from ur inventory when u claim land. Might as well ask a couple of mundane questions while I'm here. Where do i spawn? in a spawn house or in the middle of no where to stop griefing etc. will I be able to join up with you guys? As im not really looking for a solo server, as in everyone builds like 1k-2k away from each other. How many "towns" (Player groupings) do you have within your server I'm going to assume not everyone is under the same banner but idk so im asking . Is there a distance limit in which ur allowed to play within? e.g. don't go further then say 20k otherwise it will have a knock on effect on the server performance.

Hi, currently I'm going around server to server looking for one to settle on so u may see this msg on alot of differnt servers. I understand that your server is new. What game difficulty & smart moving set at? Also is this a privite hosted server, or do u host it urself? I'm not nesercerly asking for whitelist, but I am asking for more information about the server. Also having someone talk about ur server does help to populate it as no 1 has made a reply for whitelist to the server yet to my knowledge.

I would like to visit the server, zakhad is my gamename.

Lol you make it out like http://www.coros.us/mods/zombieawareness is vanilia judging by ur massive distaste for em. If u managed to let a creeper blow ur stuff up... then you did something wrong, not the creeper... he's only doing his job. (Thats a mighty looking chiseled block that took u 5 minutes to work on.... it would be a terrible shame if anything where to happen to it..... lols) It's ur opinion after all. If you don't like em fair nuff really... just dont discourage other people otherwise (Vanilia is BAD !!! you heathens BEGONE!) u make it religous. The whole point was just to expand upon current/future mechanics. Sure if they get moved underground sure they wouldn't destroy ur house per se, but they could still destory the mineshafts towards or inside the crypt burying you X_x. I assume this its going to be built using mineshafts (which are made from supports) after all. TFC is to make minecraft more believable, not just a massive empty cave/crypt thingy that hasnt managed to collaps on itself from sheer weight/pressure of the surroundings.

Soon TFC will be MS paint ^^ lol. But yeah, more unique creativity is always nice from an aesthetic point of view. I honestly don't think its very hard to change the mechanics of sheers to include this, I would assume its just copying the API from the chisel even at the very basic level.

I honestly don't know how to edit a title of a thread. The whole point of the creeper thing is to add more survival or give a purpose to mobs trying to head ur progress or to expand upon uses for high tier metals. To me it just feels like creative as the only survival element is grabbing food and that really isn't that hard. Go do some exploring, grab a few plants turn em into seeds and u have a massive farm on the go :S

Cogs and wheels to me seems like a more believeable version of better than wolves but i do think thats 1 along with thaumcraft 3 that should fit in nicely as optional expansion to TFC

Lol stars! forgot about that little niche game v few knew about, yeah i played it for awhile my bro got me into it - customisation was great and geting lucky with some planets to colonize or mine was always a gamble at least i think it was lol so long ago i was so young when i palyed it - 7-10 years old or something

Warning the following text maybe concidered ..... Nerdish If you are prone to fits of Gramma nazi or LIKEAWWMGAWD UHAF NO LIFE then plz click next page or post These are amoung the best games I've ever played im sure im missing a few here or there I've played so many more too many tbh, I'm talking 500+. But in all honesty, I dont regret it one bit, I've learnt so many: stories romances, covictions, hardships, lore, all these differnt games have shaped me in one way or another, for better or worse i do not regret it so here's a few* Secret of mana 1+2 Chrono Trigger FinalFantasy2-6 + 12 Eye of the beholder 1-2-3 Dungeon hack Black Cyrpt The Settlers 1-4 (+ 10th anniversary) Cannon fodder 1 Superfrog Champions/Dark/Queen of kyrnn Magic candle 2 the four and forty Magic the gathering (Shandalar or something) Zelda Most (not spirit tracks / 4 swords / Skyward sword) Baldurs Gate1+2 Icewind-dale + exp Dungeon siege 1+2 + expansions Prince of Persia Warwith + two thrones + the forgotern sands Neverwinter nights 1+2 + exp Legend of grimrock Unreal1+2 tournament + 2003/2004/3 Quake 2-3-4 Wolfenstein 3d Might and magic 7 of blood and honor Mech warrior 3 Pirates moon Summoner Tibia Command and Conquer + TS + RedAlert 1+2 n a few expansions Worms 1+2+armageddon+3D Warcraft 3 + Vanilia Wow + expansions untill panderia Warhammer online Vampire the masqurade redemption + bloodlines Populous 1+2 + the beginning Dungeon Keeper 1+2 S.T.A.L.K.E.R Shoc+cs+cop Thief dark/metal/DS Minecraft Terreria The sims1-2-3 + expansions galore Diablo 1/2 Witcher 1/2 The elderscrolls Morrowind/Oblivion/Skyrim Civ1-5 + expansions and some of the splin offs e.g. civ 2 test of time My personal favoirte is Playing Populous the begnning (on the POPre MatchMaker). Terraforming a RTS with Moba (dota-lol-hon etc) gameplay a world so that your tribe cand surive and thrive, with a great sense of immersion with silly voice overs battle sound / animations always amuse. The sheer amount of hours I put into this game is well over 2000 hours. I'm still playing it to date. It was released in 1998. These are the Golden years folks, give or take. Baldurs gate, Dungeon keeper, Thief the dark project. Age of empires System shock2, etc) I grew up on game from Spectrum/MSDos/Amiga&Atari Iteriy era playing Gauntlet and MSDos (Typing in cmd's at like 6 years old go me !!) I'm 23 and playing these old games again makes doesn't make it feel repetative. As I didnt really understand the story back then, it was just a game a start to finnish.

http://www.youtube.com/user/Kikoskia/videos?query=program A must watch

Well i had to do something with all the excess marble/Lapislazuli was a old photo i took on raisercraft server back on build 4*

Yeah pretty much somes mine up - doesnt make sense how 1 texture pack works fine and another doesnt to :S

http://www.coros.us/mods/zombieawareness Improved monster AI Adds a whole new scary factor hardcore TFC style where mobs have a hightent level of detection via smell (you bleed when u take dmg) noise (walking / chopping tree's) sight up to 64 blocks away, as well as mobs alerting each.

I've never had a major problem opifine in that it will cause me to crash :S, although i tend to crash with smartmoving with illegal stance while sprinting

Does optifine mess around with the icons.png for the hoe/chizel icon functions cus i dont see em bottom right next to health bar - i know theres a bug with water with ur texture pack wondering if its the same - bui doesnt explain why the health bar still works tho :S

U checked a 100 block radious area for a very large deposit?
