Deepground: A steampunk RP in need of ideas, and more - Games

[QUOTE=Neo222;28531425]I7, I think between 6-9 of RAM, the latest DX11 graphics card (well, second latest)[/QUOTE] So you just got an HD 6990 a few days ago? Because that is the latest GPU. But from the CPU and RAM I guess it will do fine. But are you going to be doing other things while you are hosting the server? Because I can keep off the machine and leave it running 24/7 all focused on Minecraft without any other processes intruding on it.

Awesome You got the server up and running! IGN: Playguy6 for the whitelist.

Tankred for whitelist, if it's up.

Is the server down? I can't connect.

whats the ip?

76.124.83.181:25565

Its down for now, as I have college today till 5-6 Eastern time. It will be up as soon as I get back, so please wait. Or till 7, since I am going to be heading to my shore house in the state here, bringing my Alienware with me because I got college work that must be done, as well as maintaining the server.

That is the kind of thing I was talking about.

[QUOTE=MacTrekkie;28545612]That is the kind of thing I was talking about.[/QUOTE] I know, but I even if I could, I didn't have time to send it to you. Okay, you can keep the server up when I am not around, I will send you a copy of the updated map once everyone is off for tonight so people don't have to rebuild everything. If you can keep it up, I will be grateful.

wait a minute. In my excitement to be able to use my computer for something really useful, I just remembered, I don't know anything about hosting a server. Oh well.

A bit of a side-note which involves some ideas for the world of Deepground, basically there is one game that drew inspiration a little for how the surface cities would look. There is a game called Edge of Twilight, a steampunk/dieselpunk (as in, having the steampunk look but the dieselpunk power source, I think) that was rumored to been canceled, though no one knows truly. If possible, I would like to make one abandoned surface city based on the city from the game, as seen in the trailers. Watch it anyway, its pretty cool!

Deiselpunk draws more heavily on Art Deco than Victorian art styles.

Thanks Mac. Anyways, I got a mod that would be interesting. Its a mod that has it so that all items that have light (torches, laterns, etc.) will illuminate everyone around them if their being hold, dropped, or if another player is holding them. [url]http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=1032&t=199815[/url] It client-side, meaning it won't effect the server or anything. I was thinking of using it to allow the usage of night time exploration while keeping the danger of being around at night, as mobs would still spawn even if you have a light source out. [QUOTE=ThatHippyMan;28548137]Deiselpunk draws more heavily on Art Deco than Victorian art styles.[/QUOTE] True. Well, they said the game is steampunk, so I guess its a mix of both. Could be wrong, but I like it still... not saying that a city has to look how it does in that game, though I'd like to see something as big.

If we're going to use have shops, could we maybe use the shelf mod so we could show what we are selling? Here it is: [url]http://www.minecraftforum.net/viewtopic.php?f=25&t=80246&hilit=Risugami[/url] (It's at the bottom of the opening post.)

I myself wished we could, but I guess we're stuck using what we have. Though we could make our own display shelves, though they won't be perfect.

Why can't we use those mods?

Dispensers could do the job, but they won't show what's inside them :(

[QUOTE=No Party Hats;28548465]Why can't we use those mods?[/QUOTE] Because they add new content, which could be used by griefers in some cases. I do wish we could use them, but i guess we just have to find another way. [QUOTE=Oscario;28548494]Dispensers could do the job, but they won't show what's inside them :([/QUOTE] True, I do wish there was some way.

How would greifers abuse a storage shelf. It's like having a chest that you can see into.

By the way, is the server up right now? I don't know what time it is over where you are.

It's 00:25 right here.

Also, did you accept me to be one of the builders or no [editline]11th March 2011[/editline] [QUOTE=Neo222;28548579]Sever is not up yet, its 3:24 here.

[QUOTE=No Party Hats;28548616]Also, did you accept me to be one of the builders or no[/QUOTE] I am not sure, as I don't have access to the whitelist right now. Though you are in, I need to update the whitelist.

Ah okay then.

As for the question of where i live, I live on the eastern coast of the U.S, basically in New Jersey. Hince why its taking long for me to get the server up.

Haha, I'm in New Hampshire :buddy:
