Does this game use much of the video card?

 

My video card's fan crapped out today and I won't be able to afford my GTX570 until next month or so. I need something to do in my spare time.

It's not as taxing on the videocard as it is the CPU. A person without a gfx card and instead an integrated video can still play minecraft comfortably on medium to medium-low settings. Depending on how good your CPU is, you might experience a bit of trouble. But a dual core 2.2 ghz with 4gb ram can play minecraft.

So you're still using your old video card then?

Yes.

 

I've played a little Minecraft on it and it seems fine. However, when I try to play games like TF2, BC2, etc. my PC crashes. I ran Furmark and my GPU got very, very hot. That's how we figured out that the fan was dead.

Banned him aswell as ip banned him. Sorry guys but no rollback. If we have a problem again a white-list will be made. I have to go to work now if anymore problems occur pm me.

 

Damn :( Well, will we be granted temporary access to unlimited items or something similar? He completely destroyed my house, and he managed to take all my items that I had (Which was 4 large chests full).

 

My goal tonight is to reward you guys with new mods and possibly a way to spawn items without having op status. If you see an op online ask him to spawn you items and we usually wont care because with this server, i have no problems just spawning. Our last server was more non-cheating oriented but this one is basically a free build.

 

Don't hold me to it, but tonight we should hopefully have some mods installed.

I may not be able to get on currently, but I can give some advice for some of the commands:

 

Invsee is quite useful - it basically duplicates all of the items in the target person's invy and places them in the exact order and durability in your invy (you can switch back to your own invy by retyping invsee, I believe).

 

Give item is relatively simple to use, so long as you know the IDs needed. The Wiki has the hex and decimal IDs listed for each item and block, so it should be simple to look up. Fairly sure the commands use the decimal values, but if it throws an error message that way, try the hex value instead.

 

I notice the lightning command is gone, but if Low left it out and it's enabled, be careful with it - it generally kills the target regardless unless they put themselves out extremely quickly and burns up items (I should know, torchbane whacked me with it more than once >_>). I recommend not using it near other players or buildings (or anything flammable, just in case).

 

Spawn mob could be useful if you require dyed wool - spawn a bunch of sheep, use your dyes and shear. Better than hunting them down, at least. I had planned on asking Low about creating a farm with some spawners so you guys could obtain leather/pork/wool/feathers, but I can't really build it right now, lol. May be worth considering, spawning a mob spawner and setting it to spawn sheep in an enclosed area.

 

Excuse the rambling, I'm getting carried away again, lol. Hope I can get back on soon to join you guys :)

The lightning command you mention is set to op only currently. I also set all kill and ban commands to op only as well. To spawn an item you would type, /Item 1 64. 1 denotes the block id which as you said can be found on the wiki, 1 is stone. 64 denotes the amount of items you want. You can also enable unlimited stone by typing /unlimited 1 lowc15. If you guys have any questions just let me know.

If you don't know the item id you can also use the name as well :thumbup:

Well, that makes sense. Thanks for clarifying, Low :)

 

I'd probably be playing on my solo world right now on MC, but I'm currently working on a puzzle room on Terraria, lol. Haven't really felt the urge to do much on MC anyway :/ kinda sucks, but it happens occasionally. I'll likely have the urge to play more soon, it doesn't usually last long.

For anyone interested, I made a spiffy little TIF meeting place under my home. just warp to it (/home Bass_EXE), go downstairs and "search" the bookcases to lead to it. :3

So how about that "The Ather" mod? Looks really cool.

@Lowe, who's Mani3? because he's one of the blokes from that mustang site.

 

The Ather mod is really cool, but annoyingly the guy refuses to publish it until its 100% finished. hopefully he doesnt go being a [bleep] and makes people pay.

I personally have never seen grass down really deep in cave systems before, but I can see it happening, assuming there's some way the grass can spread down through the dirt all the way down to that point. Otherwise, I have no clue how it got down there, lol. Maybe an error in the terrain generation or something.

 

I downloaded the Aether Mod yesterday, promptly INVedited some supplies in, and got to exploring. I have to say, the boss battles are very challenging - the bronze tier one I had issues with since I was unprepared (although he's easy as pie if you are prepared and/or have the knowledge of how to trap him so he can't damage you), the sole silver dungeon I located killed me twice (once trying to get the victory medals due to a derp on my part, second because I suck at combat and died at the boss), and the one gold dungeon I found I haven't beaten yet. That guy seems to be almost impossible unless you have a very specific set of armor and/or a crapton of healing items.

 

A hint for the bronze tier boss... (spoiler'd in case someone else starts playing and doesn't want to find out from here):

 

 

Use the fact that dungeon blocks (almost always) have bedrock properties while the boss is still alive - in other words, trick the Slider into coming down to your level, and lure him around the center platform. He'll get stuck on it, and then you can just sit there and beat him to death with your pickaxe, he won't be able to reach you.

 

Be aware that sometimes, some of the blocks (including the center platform) don't have the bedrock properties (likely a glitch), and he'll smash right through the center platform to get at you. If this happens, you'll likely find out before you lure him, because he'll be smashing the [cabbage] out of the walls and floor as well. His smashing ability also means it's impossible to just enclose him in blocks to immobilize him, which was a smart move on the modders' part.

 

Other bosses have similar anti-cheapass tactics as well - silver tier boss can teleport and fly, gold just noclips through any wall you create (however, his projectiles do not, so splitting the room into portions may or may not help you dodge said projectiles. Just make it out of glass so you know when he's coming (I didn't use this tactic though, so no guarantee glass will work, the vid I saw was using holystone for barriers)

 

I've had a few boss battles with this guy where there might've been 40% left of the original floor, the rest was smashed apart. Never mind what happened to the walls, lol.

 

 

I've started a new world now. I want to experience getting to the Aether with completely legit gear, rather than INVedited supplies.

 

A hint for maneuvering up in the Aether (again spoiler'd, just in case):

 

 

The blue slimes (Swets?) drop blue aeroclouds, these give a monstrous jumping ability when you run into them, easily 15-20 blocks high. Combine this with Peronix's umbrella mod (which a different modder is currently keeping up to date for him) as well as his Magic Boots mod (Super Boots ftw), and you now have a very easy way of flying in between the islands). Since I never see the flying pigs or moas, I can't tame and use either of them for a similar purpose.

 

The quicksoil blocks also severely increase speed when you walk on them (be wary, they're more slippery than ice is on the surface), so you could likely use these as well. I wonder if the mounts can also utilize quicksoil and blue aeroclouds to amplify their flying ability... something I'd like to try out some day.

 

Just remember to keep spare umbrellas and super boots stored in a chest if you wish to use that method. It would suck if you died somewhere with no way of getting back, lol.

Sounds like a cool mod. I'd get it, but I don't want to mess up my world for the next update (I'm paranoid about losing it).

 

Also, DEAR GOD HELP ME!!!!!

A more serious reaction: wall off the doors with the creepers so they can't get into the room, open the doors, slaughter them with the bow. Then, wall off the other door in the same way, calmly pick off the skele and zombie (although be cautious with the skele, he may be able to hit you if the area beyond the door is more than two blocks high (I think the doors lead outside, so the thought of having the skele's arrows get stuck in the ceiling is out).

 

Anyway... I've decided to not bother with the Aether mod right now. I'd rather wait until they fix the spawn rates and such before I really get into it more. Until then, I heard about this "Yogbox" mod compilation, so I'm gonna try that. Zero clue as to all the mods in it, but since they're hand picked to work together nicely, it should be good.

 

Regardless of what exactly I do, I need to actually stick to a world long enough to actually get something built. I keep creating and deleting worlds, I never really get into any single one enough.

Been messing about with the Aether mod, it's pretty solid, although as you said the spawn rates need changing. The mechanics of all of the items and dungeons are fantastic though.

 

You know the mod is good when you explore an overhang to get to some zanite, get jumped and shot by several aggressive moas, stumble around and fall off the island due to the poison effect, and slam into a rock on the surface world because you forgot to bring a parachute. Was a pretty great death. laugh.gif

 

I'm also glad that the portal you have to build is made out of Glowstone. That way, you have to go to the Nether before you go to the Aether. Gives the whole game a more expansive feeling.
