Greboth

As Dave says the limit is currently 10. Though this is an arbitrary number I chose so it can easily be increased.

Due to villages needing to be at least 400 blocks apart, I think it is best to provide co-ordinates of where people are setting up. Obviously this will be an approximation until the villages are up and running but its gives people an idea. Plus it gives the co-ordinates if we want to visit each other. Once you've decided on a location let me know and I'll update this post. **FG Village co-ordinates** Greboth 1700, 225 (approx)

TekTopia Wiki: https://sites.google.com/view/tektopia TekTopia is what I like to think of a Vanilla+ mod, it adds to vanilla minecraft but doesn't vastly change the way it's played (like FTB with it's nuclear reactors, jetpacks, electricity etc.). and as such I've put together a light modpack. Mods included: TekTopia - Villager overhaul mod Tinkers Construct -Build better tools (I don't think the TekTopia villagers will use Tinkers tools but still gives us much better mining tools 🙂 ) There's also a few QoL mods too (Journey Map, JEI and NEI, Mouse Tweaks, Inventory Tweaks and WAILA) Server details: Name: FGBeyond.minecraft-crafting.pro IP Address: 188.165.208.54:25414 This mod plays in Minecraft 1.12.2 using Forge (Forge Version 14.23.5.2837) Mod pack files can be downloaded from: https://www.dropbox.com/sh/fs2qa3r97ulo8bk/AABHFhHYEY_4Zt1Z9NreBLK3a?dl=0 Just on my lunch break but will post a MultiMC guide to installing the mods later. ***Important Details*** A Village is 240 x 240 blocks centred around your town hall but Town halls of serperate villagers need to be 400+ blocks apart. As with any new server when exploring out in the world and generating chunks expect a bit of lag Seed for server:428961502367205 (Can be viewed using http://mineatlas.com/ if you want to plan a direction to go in) @Plumbers Crack @Spacedeck I've carried the whitelist from the FTB server over so you should both be able to log in. @GazzaGarratt If you're interested, let me know your username and I'll get you whitelisted. Dave - I don't know how important the forge version is but you may need to edit your MC instance to change forge to the one listed above as that is what the server is running. Any problems let me know 🙂 Guide to installing TekTopia mods (or any other mods tbh) Tips to begin with TekTopia

Indeed, got to get that extra day. Time to get that pre-order in and then cancel it after the beta’s. Then wait for release and see what* BS they have added. *It’s CoD so I think ‘when’ is more accurate than ‘if’

What is this keep inventory on death that you’re talking about 🤣 I think the custom skies are a texture / client side mod rather than a server one. I will double check though 🙂 Reading some more about TekTopia it isn’t built to work with any other mods so think this will be a light pack compared to FTB.

@Plumbers Crack WAILA (or a version of it anyway) does work 🙂 Are there any others you can think of to include? So far I have; Inventory Tweaks JourneyMap JEI Mouse Tweaks NEI (though currently still erroring so need to work that out) Tinkers Construct WAILA I still haven't gotten far enough to know if the villagers will use tinkers tool. I'd assume not but even if they don't I'm tempted to leave it in as it makes miner for us easier 🙂

Sounds like a plan 🙂 I think most mods could be used but I don’t know which/how many mods would work with the villagers. Like Tinkers Construct, I like it but I don’t know yet if the villagers will use the tinkers tools. I will find out and we can go from there.

I haven’t tried WAILA tbh, I like it in heavily modded MC with the stupid number of ores, blocks and machines that get added. Though for vanilla (or at least only with vanilla blocks) I don’t see the point but I can test it. I managed to get JEI working but was struggling to get NEI to work. I disabled it for now but do want to get it working if only for the F7 lighting overlay. As for the server, depends how you mean 2 different worlds. Yes we can have up to (i think) 8 worlds on the server. Though they don’t run simultaneously so you have to choose in your browser which world you want loaded.

I forgot to add, I’m also playing about to see what other mods can be used along side TekTopia. So far I only a few QoL ones (nouse tweak, storage tweaks) and Tinkers Construct. I don’t know if the villagers will use TC tools but will find out shortly. TBH even if they don’t I still prefer them over vanilla tools.

I've been playing it on single player at the moment as the server is still running Beyond 🙂 Though if we change the server over to this then I will let you know 🙂

I sent this to Plumber before but thought I’d post it on here too. Basically it’s a sort of RPG villager mod. Build your village, get villagers and assign them roles, grow your village and gain more villagers. TangoTek (the nod creator) did a playthrough while testing the mod and it’s worth a watch if you’re interested. I feel like a lazy Sunday today so will be starting s playthrough.

How the fuck do you survive that long! I manage about 1 kill before I get shot in the back by 4 other people 😆

That many players on shipment is absolute carnage. I do love gun game though, really forces you in to various strategies. I did enjoy playing hardpoint too, camping with ..... errrr I mean taking up a tactical position and holding it with my acog m14 picking everyone off at range haha.

Well that is stupid, I’ll have to give the wet a proper go later then.

The F1 game is quite fun too, not the most realistic racing game but the only place to get this years F1 cars and tracks.

Huh? The wet track in arcade is different to the wet track in other modes?

*cough* wheel *cough* 😉 I do like the daily races, they’re generally clean and close racing. As for the rain though, I found it a bit odd. Obviously I have no real experience of race cars in the wet but they didn’t seem as slippery as I expected.

Tbh most games aren’t all that much trouble to set up on wheels. I don’t think PC2 would be either as it should be a case of just installing the new ffb file. I am tempted to get it as the career mode is supposed to be one of the best. But I also really want to try out some of the Assetto Corsa mods and leagues. Why is there never enough time for all the games 😢

Did you get it on pc or ps4? I’ve been looking at it for the PS4 to bring in October. However the wheel force feedback isn’t that great by all accounts. It isn’t any better by default on PC but there is a ffb mod for it that makes it a lot better. So I’m torn between PS4 or PC.....or just settling for the other 8 racing games I already have 🤪

I played quite a few matches as and when I could fit them in. A couple moments that made me wonder about the connection but mostly it was fine. Certainly better than previous CoD’s and I’m hoping that continues in to the full game. It’s still early days but it’s gone from another CoD I’m not going to buy to a definitely maybe.

Was I being blind last night and not noticing or have they added another game mode? There’s now a mode where you start with no guns and pick them up off the floor.

100% agree Gary, I get the impression most people feel the same. The problem is that they only need a small number of people buying loot boxes to make them worth it. 1 person spends £100 on loot boxes, that covers the next 9 people that don’t and nets them more profit than they would make if all 10 bought a new game.

It completely depends how they implement the loot boxes. I don’t really have a problem with loot boxes that don’t change the game. But them if you want to but there’s no cost to me for not buying them. It’s when they become Treyarch style of loot boxes and have OP guns in them that then ruin the game and there’s no other way to get those guns. I understand why they had to be OP guns though, they needed people to feel they got something good for the hundreds or thousands they spent on loot boxes. That’s great but it ruins the game and alienates people who can’t or don’t want to buy loot boxes. I suppose though it must make financial sense. If they’re making 800million in 3 months on lootboxes that is way more than they could make on releasing a new game and getting new customers. I know I’m building myself up for disappointment but I’m still hoping that they will be cosmetic only or stupid items that don’t actually affect the game.

This is looking good, for the first time in a number of years I am looking forward to a CoD. Though I’m still waiting to find out how they will ruin it.
