Support / Need Information about Server
« on: April 18, 2013, 10:58:50 pm »
It's been months since I last played this server and would like to know a few details about how it works.

How does mob spawning work on the server, such as:
Can hostile mobs still spawn normally or is it turned off/ limited?
Can neutral mobs such as cows and sheep spawn on grass tiles?
At what rate do the mobs spawn, at normal rates or at decreased rates.

I ask since I havent seen many mobs spawn in unlit areas around me, just scattered around the map

General Discussion / Monster Spawns
« on: June 04, 2012, 04:16:25 am »
I think a way to fix the monster spawn problem is to remove the cap of the monsters able to spawn on server, which would create massive lag server-wide but a way to remove that problem would to use a program that uses the /butcher command every hour server-wide so monsters in inactive chunks are removed.

Another idea is to make monster despawn in inactive chunks after 15-30mins if possible and leave the cap the same.

Projects and Creations / Water Boat Race Track
« on: May 17, 2012, 04:13:44 am »
Since my Longest Coaster is currently finished, until a competitor tries to out-do me, I'm going to start working on a new project. A racetrack/ water ride for boats. Basically there will be a water ride wide enough to fit two or more boats and then they race along the track to the finish line. And when it's done I can host competitions where 1st place gets a prize.

If you have any ideas on the construction of the ride or suggestions that you would like to see implemented possibly then shoot me a reply to this thread.

Projects and Creations / Old Property Giveaway
« on: May 15, 2012, 01:19:05 am »
I decided to give away my old buildings since I moved a distance away and can't visit it to keep up on it enough. It includes the Dome, The Spire, Sheep Farm, Skeleton Spawner, and the Castle Hall.

http://smp.opticraft.net/map/#/-2227/64/-207/-3/0/0

On the live map it seems someone griefed it in places, and the pumpkin farm has it's redstone removed and I will be back to grab a PS stone that I placed on the dome.

But to anyone who does want the buildings the best of luck to fixing and renovating the area. Also there are several maxed enchantment tables in the area that you can keep, and any chests you want gone just contact me.

Projects and Creations / The Longest Roller Coaster
« on: May 14, 2012, 03:33:10 am »
I'm currently busy with a roller coaster that I think to be the longest so far on this server:

http://smp.opticraft.net/map/#/-4858/64/-498/-2/0/0

Several people already rode the tracks and I'm currently working on another track that is Nether themed, the start is the netherack dragon head in the water.

But I want the opinions of the forums population on what I do with this track.

Here are some questions that I would like your suggestions on:

Should the fire track connect with the main track or keep it a separate rail.

I'm planning on remaking the main line to where it has more decorative flare to it with themes.
Such as maybe connecting the fire tracks to the main line and having a Water track , air track and earth track themes that will connect to each other.

Should I make the themes separate and have multiple rails or should I have 1 really long track.

Projects and Creations / Eiffel Tower
« on: May 10, 2012, 06:14:38 pm »


Built this for Computer_LP_Player owner of Lava City, and is made of clean stone and stone brick for the platforms.

It's up to Computer if he wants it to be accessible to reach the top.
Also good idea is to place fences around the platforms for details and other details.

Also I learned you can't use someones /home without them online so a couple times I fell and died then had to run back from spawn to there which is over 5000 blocks away across 2 1/2 oceans and a dense forest biome.

Projects and Creations / Cave Spider EXP Grinder
« on: May 09, 2012, 02:01:11 am »
This grinder uses 3 spawners but only can get 2 to work at a time, planning on altering it a little to try an get all 3 to pop em out at a time. But so far the spiders just PILE UP.



I have to apologize because I got curious just how much spiders there were after I waited 5minutes and used a x-ray texture pack that I removed after this photo. It removes the visibility of stone/cobble/dirt ect.



They can't squeeze through those fence posts and I'm just out of reach of their attacks but can still slap them. Basically I grind them until it's cleared up, break the wool block, go down and collect the loot then rebuild my pedestal.

Background Info:
I found a mineshaft when digging around after I moved from my old place. I'm at the world's border. And in the mineshaft I found a spider spawner near bedrock and built a basic spawner cage around it which sucked because bedrock blocked me from other plans. Then explored the shafts further and found 2 more on another floor almost near another.

I tried connecting them via tunnels but the spiders just climbed the walls instead of being pushed with water into the central room.
Made lips that limited wall cilmbing but they just decided to ignore them and just hug the walls instead.
Then got mad and just made a massive room that encompassed them all with water pushing them into the middle.
Then I'm trying to get all 3 spawners to work together instead of the two at a time.

Projects and Creations / Progress: 2 weeks Time
« on: May 04, 2012, 12:54:08 am »


I was wondering who built this, it's near my area and never noticed it before. But it looks really well done, so congrats to the builder.


 This is my place so far, the bottom place is not mine with the cactus, I have no clue who owns it either, so if its yours then hello neighbor
 
The middle construct will be much larger and essentially be a castle-esque building that will be a central point in my place connecting my arena and tower and further buildings.

Support / Ban Conditions
« on: May 02, 2012, 03:01:02 am »
I was wondering to what extent does it take for an individual to be banned? I've seen it fluctuate quite a lot from a couple blocks to full blown creeper bombs.

I ask this because recently my own area was grief-ed which was fixed, and the same 2 people ripped up my farm, tore holes into my walls and statue, and added diving boards to my buildings and the mods that helped me said that it wasn't a big deal and let it slide. But then I read some ban appeals and some following reasons: broken windows, melon farms being ripped up, being extensively annoying. So this kind of made me confused does it depend fully on the moderators personal judgment or is there a strict hand-guide to these situations?

Projects and Creations / To City Owners
« on: May 02, 2012, 01:54:38 am »
I am looking for any city owner that would like a new structure built in their town or nearby for either practical purposes or aesthetic reasons.

My works so far are posted in the forums and received positive reviews from others so far.

I can build an Arena, Towncenter, ect.

It's best that you tell me what you want with detail on key features or else my own creativity might go into hyper-drive creating a super-structure that doesn't fit what you envisioned. Such as circle base or square based buildings.

Projects and Creations / Opinions?
« on: April 29, 2012, 11:39:37 pm »




So far I constructed these, there's more to the arena trust me, it's base is a 99 diameter circle and this is only half. There will be more buildings in the courtyard but so far there is a small wheat farm, and a utility shed.

The Tower is self-explanatory

-Able to mine in a quick and efficient manner
-Basic redstone skills

Current works can be viewed on the LiveMap at coordinates x: -2291 and z: -170
As of yet the livemap isn't showing my newest construction and hopefully soon it will.

General Discussion / Live Map
« on: April 29, 2012, 02:33:08 am »
Does anyone know when the Live Map gets updated and how frequently? I heard every few days but it's been more than 5 and nothing changed on it yet, I would like to use it as an overhead camera of projects im doing to get a better view of it.

Projects and Creations / Self Portraits
« on: April 26, 2012, 03:56:24 am »
I'm starting a small business that creates sculptures of a players avatar using wool blocks.
The statues will stand 32 block high and 16 blocks wide as a standard size.
The price of each sculpture isnt fixed rate yet, but will probably be 250 per 64 blocks of wool for labor and materials.
Standard 2-D statues have 352 blocks
Standard 3-D statues have 1408 blocks
Additional details can be added such as your avatar holding a sword or wearing armor.
Due to color limitations skins with a wide range of colors will possibly be harder to complete and will look more flat.

If you don't like the appearance of the statue refunds can be arranged, but will be reduced if the structure is more than half-way complete since tearing it down and any loss of materials can occur.

So if you want to impress your cities inhabitants with your lovely visage at the gates of your town or if you simply want to commemorate your friends and fellow adventurers then contact me in-game, or if you can't catch me online then reply to this thread with an image of your skin showing all sides (including hands and feet ends)

If you want NPC statues then costs can vary on their size (creepers, skeleton, zombie, spider (maybe), ghast, ect)

Also I can possibly let your statue be riding an NPC as I build it so those Spider Jockeys arent so smug anymore.

Projects and Creations / Tower in the Sea
« on: April 25, 2012, 02:09:38 am »
This tower was built in 4 days, there is some construction going on inside for decorations. I am thinking of using this as a city center where newcomers can gather supplies: wood, wheat, sugarcane, melons, pumpkins, or to use as a gathering area: spleef arena currently 250 blocks up, with diving boards and lounge at top. There are free utilities inside, enchanting table with 30 bookcase cap, nether portal, and nearby a wool farm that has all 16 colors of sheep seperated into individual pens for easy shearing, and a skeleton spawner exp farm.



If anyone wants to move in simply tell me over forums and you may choose an already built room on the first two floors or build your own room inside, or construct around or near the center on the water or on the nearby land.

There is also room inside the small walls nearby for several houses to be built.
