[QUOTE=DudeGuyKT;34229403]Okay, here's the stories. I've taken a bit of creative freedom, but I'll explain a bit of each one after each installment.
Backstory: Three friends and I started a small settlement far away from the spawn. Just in case something were to happen, we hid out valuables in chests several blocks under our houses. One day, we got on to find that everything was destroyed. So, we decided that trying to rebuild was pointless, and set off on our adventure.
PART I
PART II
Explanation: [sp]The part where Chris was about to kill himself, was actually just him about to log off. He dropped what he thought we could use, so that we could continue our adventure without him, because he would be gone for several hours. Instead, we agreed to wait for him to return, and we just played on different servers. We did kind of make a big deal about it, because where we were at the time would take forever to get back to if he had killed himself and later wanted to rejoin our adventure.[/sp]
PART III
Explanation: [sp]The soldiers fighting over the tunnels were members of another forum that was having a War RP. It was "Red vs. Blue", basically. We stumbled upon it and became a part of the RP without even knowing it was an RP at the time.[/sp]
PART IV
Explanation: [sp]Now you see the full extent of the forum's RP. I think there was a total of 30 people participating in it, excluding Murtagh and I. After I had slaughtered the remaining Blues, they told me that it was an RP. I apologized for ruining it, but they said that they had already discussed ending it on the forum, thus the large war. They then thanked me, for giving it a better ending than any of them could think of.
Now, Reaper's killer was a member of this forum, before the RP started. He was the one that actually suggested starting an RP. He founded the Blues and set up the camp the day after killing Reaper, and so he was too preoccupied to worry about us hunting him down. That also explains why they accepted him as their leader.[/sp]
And that's it. Hope you enjoyed it.[/QUOTE]
That story was kickass. I especially loved the end. What are the odds of running into that guy again? Anyways, I was wondering if anyone would like to join me on 2b2t. I usually go on alone, and I always like travelling with friends. Lats time I played, however, a creeper blew me up after I had collected nearly 4 stacks of iron armor. I raged and haven't been back since. If anyone would like to plan a trip, PM me.

I submitted those armor textures to bonemouse to see if he liked them. I suppose he didn't, because I have yet to get a reply despite him being online.

I tried to restart the other day but it's really hard now that hunger has been implemented

I know. Hunger is BS for servers like 2b2t. Once I managed to survive on there with my friend Phil, but barely. We found a chicken and tore it to shreds. I can't remember why we quit. I think he just got bored.

I don't have a lot of experience building in minecraft but I really like how my new buildcraft consolidation center is turning out. For those that don't know what a consolidation center is, well it's basically a big ass warehouse/ distribution center. Shit comes in gets sorted and then goes out either via pipes in the case of liquids or by mine carts. Or gets warehoused. Which right now is the majority of it since the factory isn't finished yet.
It uses redpower 2 for lighting.
Outside of the building.

Inside the lobby area.

The consolidation area. This area is currently two sections, a crude storage area(left) and a sorter with huge amounts of chests.(right) The crude area just got rebuilt thanks to updating minecraft. I had not updated in months. It was still running 1.7.3 if I remember correctly. I updated only to 1.0 because buildcraft doesn't work with 1.1 yet. I had to rebuild this area and all of the lighting because the pipes are different and the wring was brewing stands :/.
[img]http://img831.imageshack.us/img831/3756/20120115184858.png[/img]
Here is a picture of the old consolidation center. I have pretty much stripped the outside bare and tore down the office. I am currently pumping everything out of here so I can level it and turn it into a refinery. I boarded up the doorways and ripped up the brick floors to use elsewhere. Each set of double doors had 2 pipes that lead to at least 8 chests(50 for cobblestone) for each particular item and all the minerals and whatnot went into one set of chests. The new center will not take cobblestone dirt or sand that shit goes right into lava(after factory is complete it won't), the good stuff gets sorted and saved.

All of this was built without flying on survival so it took forever. It is also built on top of the old mine shafts so I have to be careful if I dig down.
Before Christmas I started a project I kinda started with a 24x24 area in which to build and well the pictures show that it kinda balloned from there.

Still so much to go.
Began working on the Monster Monolith, my new mob system.
This is the first floating mob system I've made. Since it's in the ocean and I've explored all the caves, monster spawning should be at maximum. It's not done, and I can always add more layers, but this is a pretty good base.

I'm guessing the lava is like the on/off button. good idea.
Whats with all the ladders? water blockers?

An enormous colossus, ala ancient Rhodes.
This is actually an outdated picture; I've build a huge city behind him, including a temple of Zeus and lots of buildings.
On the same map is a (probably underscaled) Pharos of Alexandria.
When it's done I'll make a video tour. I've done this all on my own in Creative so far.

I used to believe that mobs wouldn't walk off blocks if it has a 3 or more drop, so mobs on the higher layers couldn't fall, and you could put ladders/signs and they would think it would stop them from falling. However, jeb is just too awesome and fixed it.
Since then, I just made it so each level is identical to the bottom one.
One of my current projects, Gear Tower, a luxury Apartment skyscraper. 8 floors, 2 each, 14 total. Has a nice park on the roof.

that is quite cool, but it's not in survival is it?

I really like the building on the right. It's so realist and minecraftist in the same time.
Making myself a little something. Ain't quite finished tough.

Those textures are eye rape. How can you even stand looking at them from a distance?
Once again, try a smoother texture pack, preferably 16x16.
The pack looks fairly decent, actually.
[QUOTE=Rammlied;34264467]The pack looks fairly decent, actually.[/QUOTE]
No, no it doesn't.
I'm sure it looks great up close but when you take shots from a distance the images are sharp as hell. MC HD textures just do that for some reason.

It's because Notch is too lazy to implement mipmapping.
[QUOTE=Terabytez;34267732]Done fully legit™[/QUOTE]
It doesn't even matter if it was done "legit". Minecraft is a building game at heart.
Regardless, it doesn't take any kind of skill to grind for days gathering resources, the end-result is what matters.

On the first screenshot it looks a bit empty. Second, however is great.
Also take a few screenshots with anti aliasting enabled, shoold look alot smoother.
Starting work on a spaceship, made an engine and made the rest from my head, turned out it looked something like a star wars one.

I'll probably edit the texture pack to change the wool into metal or something.

No one gives a shit about anti aliasing in minecraft.
Probably because it doesn't work for over 50% of people.
[QUOTE=NoNameForEvil;34277405]people doing this sort of thing annoys me
i mean surely if you were a good builder you wouldn't need a texture pack to make a spaceship
although that's just my opinion[/QUOTE]
Suddenly huge argument between me and Simski

Nothing to do with being a good builder, just makes it look more authentic rather than a massive piece of flying black cloth.
