      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

Calling all LP'ers, and people interesting in a political/rpg style project with TFC

6 posts in this topic

INTRODUCTION:

First off, I'd like to introduce myself to those of you who may not know me. I'm triplethreat but people call me TT. I run a fairly popular TFC server (see the Servers posts for our server thread) and we have recently got many bukkit plugins to work with our server, allowing for us to have plugins such as Towny, Factions, and Essentials. The last month or so we have been playing around with the these getting them just right for how we'd like them. This has really improved the game play I feel however, it seems that with a lot of the popular LP'ers calling it quits and with TFC2 in the making, TFC1s popularity seems to be waning these days.

MY PROPOSAL:

Enter my project/idea: Start a fresh greylisted server and open it up for an interactive LP/political project using plugins such as Towny and Factions. I've decided to take a stab at doing a LP but its not going to just be "How to play TFC". Its going to be a "day-in-the-life" of a TFC server. I will vlog about the happenings on the server and such. My episodes might be short (approx 10-20min long) and occur about 2 - 3 times a week. I will go about my business of setting up shops and selling items to players. I'll discuss the progress of the town i'm living in as well as visit other towns on the server. If nations decide to start war, then I will vlog about that as well. The server will be PvP with no bans on stealing or griefing. We can do this by using Essentials to lock chests, doors, tool racks an anvils (set up in the configuration). Being apart of a town means no one will be able to build or break blocks within your plots that you've purchased, encouraging players to play cooperatively. However, "homesteading" is an option if you'd like to join the server. I was waiting for build 76 to come out for this project idea but really couldn't wait.

HOW "LETS PLAY" CONTENT FITS IN THIS PROJECT:

I really would like to encourage LP'ers to join the server and vlog about what you are doing on the server. When you post your videos, add the tag: #tttfc so that when people view your videos they'll be able to find OTHER LP'ers who are on the server and they can see their perspective on whats going as well. Joining the server and contributing as a non-LP'er also allows for an interactive experience as they get to contribute to what they are experiencing when watching LP'er videos.

ATTRIBUTES OF THE SERVER:

I mentioned greylisting You might be asking what that is. Essentially, anyone can join the server without being whitelisted first. However, until they apply to the server so we can check them out on mcbans/mcbouncer they can't do anything except walk around and chat.

The mods we are running (aside from TFC of course) will be:

Smart Moving

Simply Horses (Simply TFC Horses is underway and may start using that when it comes out)

Custom NPCs (Used for making custom recipes, usage of coins and possibly some NPC quests)

Lanterns (custom recipes will be made for TFC compliance)

Leather Water Sack (made for TFC)

Medical Mod (made for TFC)

The Elegant Punt (The Whitehall is also avaiable for 1.4.7 so when build 76 comes out I will add that as well)

TradeBoothMod (Great for making player based economy. You create your own shop and sell your own items there)

To apply to the server, you can go here: http://terrafirmacra...orld-gaurdedit/

PICKING A TRADE:

One of the things I'd like to encourage on the server is choosing a trade or role. If you focus one task such as mining, meals, metalurgy etc you can use the economy to trade/sell your products to other players on the server. I'd also like to see traders too... people who utilize SimplyHorses to make a horse drawn cart to carry your items so you can travel from town to town trading and selling. This is the type of stuff I'd like to see on the server.

SO WHEN WILL WE BEGIN?

We are currently setting up the server and in the next few days the server will be ready to go public. Until then, feel free to apply to the server here: http://terrafirmacra...orld-gaurdedit/

How will PvP and war work if all items can be locked? Wouldn't that defeat the purpose?

Sorry, I just saw your post! When two nations are at war, Towny allows them to grief each other. Hope this helps.

Also I haven't been updating this thread because I've been posting in a similar one in the Lets Play forum. Here's Episode 6a (a first of a three parter) with another player, Nezin:
