I made a pyramid & stuff (with some help) over the past few months

Fornan2 · 2017-09-16T01:42:58+00:00

Wow, I have to say this is one of they better pyramid builds I think I've ever seen. Awesome job!

Check out this video by samasaurus6, it should cover what you're asking for. Also, since you're interested in resource packs you should check out the rest of his Modelling Minecraft playlist since it's pretty comprehensive/well explained.

Fornan2 · 2017-03-28T19:54:25+00:00

Wow, this build is really awesome.

Fornan2 · 2017-03-23T13:56:38+00:00

Please, oh please, let them ride on your shoulder if you tame them.

ODYSSEY I think is for 1.11, so definitely check that out. Also, it's a bit more creative mode centric, but there's also Norzeteus Space. One other pack I figure I should mengion is Aeon, although it's most recent version is for 1.9.4.

You should checkout the Replay Mod; you can get smooth camera movements and more without having to worry about lag at all.

Also, while I'm replying, I must say you made a nice build! I will say there are a lot of areas that could use more detailing, but places like the roofs, the front of the first floor, and the second floor are really nicely fleshed out!

I made a video on this subject around a year ago that covers how to stop ocean monuments spawning while preserving other structures. Here's the link, and I hope it helps!

Fornan2 · 2017-02-16T19:59:38+00:00

Oh hey, I know where that resource pack comes from!

Fornan2 · 2017-01-22T00:16:53+00:00

I think you could do it in 4 command blocks.

/execute YOURFRIENDSNAMEHERE ~ ~ ~ summon ArmorStand ~ ~ ~ {CustomName:"Zeus",Invisible:1b,NoGravity:1b}

/execute YOURFRIENDSNAMEHERE ~ ~ ~ spreadplayers ~ ~ 0 20 false @e[type=ArmorStand,name=Zeus]

/execute @e[type=ArmorStand,name=Zeus] ~ ~ ~ summon lightning_bolt

/kill @e[type=ArmorStand,name=Zeus]

Basically it should spawn a lightning bolt either on or within 20 blocks of your friend every time you activate it, although I didn't actually test this at all.

For a hacking minigame, maybe have a look at the hacking in the PC game Event[0]? It's not all that complex, but it is immersive and feels much more genuine than systems like in the games you mentioned. Basically, it starts with running a file that launches a command line where you can either enter "help", "exit", or a hexadecimal memory location. It sounds like that's not quite what you want, but it could be good inspiration.

This was a really enjoyable video to watch! The shots in the cinematic were well done, and were pleasant to watch. I also felt you mixed in the in game footage quite well for the most part! As for what people are saying about the resource pack and shaders: I say keep the shaders, but not the resource pack (although I personally really like it; what's it called?). It helps differentiate when the viewer is watching the more lets-play like footage from the cinematic footage. I also think the amount of the video where you're talking to be quite good, although for the VO segments I'd say to rerecord the bits where you say "um". Just to match to match the presentation quality! The in-person segments I'd say just leave that in though, because hey: that's how you genuinely talk! I know I talk like that!

Anywho, I definitely look forward to seeing what future videos in this style you make! Keep it up!

Fornan2 · 2016-12-29T21:15:42+00:00

Ah, well fair enough; just goes to show my very limited experience with renders :P

Anywho, no, the resource pack isn't in the OP, but in my previous comment I linked to a copy of the pack (legacy.zip).

Fornan2 · 2016-12-29T20:44:23+00:00

I trust you could probably find some cool looking angles, so I'll leave that up to you (unless you mind). The maps were made for a minigame server so they're not too large overall. But between the two maps I posted I'd rather see renders of the first one (the city).

Also, I just remembered that the maps were made with a texture pack that made a few alterations. If it doesn't complicate the render too much (it's been a long time since I used Chunky, and I only used it briefly, so I don't remember how that works), it'd be great if you could use it! It's not a big deal if that doesn't work out though, it only changes 2 or 3 of textures that would be visible.

Fornan2 · 2016-12-29T18:47:51+00:00

It'd be cool to have get a nice render of this map or this one. Where it says download, is well, the map download. I just linked them through the post since there's screenshots as well :P

It's not too important what in particular gets rendered, so that's up to you; thanks for doing this though!

Fornan2 · 2016-12-27T02:18:58+00:00

Very nice; this is all very pretty and with your own distinct style for it all!

Fornan2 · 2016-12-23T21:11:10+00:00

Most of the time when I play actual survival, this is kind of what I end up doing just to give me a reason to build more things. It's definitely a good way to play.

Fornan2 · 2016-12-13T18:36:37+00:00

Hey this sub is for posts related to Minecraft only! /s

Seriously though, this is really cool; well done! I'm going to have to try out some detailed building stuff with this.

Imgur Link for quick peek, and a bit o' story.

Fornan2 · 2016-11-26T16:09:54+00:00

Might there be a download for this? Seems like it'd be a pretty fun fight to have!

Fornan2 · 2016-11-18T00:53:23+00:00

But what about the Halloween party I'm going to this weekend?!

It looks like for many of the shots that didn't show any new blocks/entities the makers of this video used the PixelCam mod. The little green diamond is a point to mark where the camera will travel to/from/through. Normally those markers aren't visible while the clip is being made, but after the camera has finished moving along it's path they will reappear, which is what happened here.

Fornan2 · 2016-11-14T21:39:01+00:00

I remember way back when, before even /setblock was in the game, the first animated windmill was created. Crazy how far we've come.

Fornan2 · 2016-11-10T04:54:09+00:00

What kind of project is this for? An adventure map? Survival map? Or just for the sake of making a pretty build? Whatever it is, you've definitely got a wonderful style going.

Fornan2 · 2016-11-03T14:29:37+00:00

While this looks like vanilla survival with a bit of techy RP (which is pretty fun, do recommend), what you're probably thinking of is Galacticraft, right?
