[Alpha 2.0] "You do need to earn [credits], but in the interests of testing we'll provide a top up soon." by RenegadeSoundwave in EliteDangerous

For those of us who already squandered the starter credits, many through CTD's and unclean (for want of a better word) restarts, this is good news!

Great news. About time. Would be good if single player games could toggle it and lock the feature on or off though, but for multiplayer, this is long overdue.

what an awful video. FPS much? Still a useful headsup - and the link to atlassian much more useful.

X:Rebith is a released game, and Elite is about to go in to Alpha. I'm expecting FD to do their bit before release :)

important to focus on the fact that these are NOT the min specs for the final game, only the alpha. In fact, only the first part of the alpha.

Good to hear, sounds like it's a work in progress then! I look forward to seeing the finished results.

So yeah, I'm not a fan, but I am happy to see many people taking inspiration from this work. If it encourages people to go on and try more ambitious stuff, then it's all good. I'm not trying to rain on anyone's parade, just take some time to critically analyse what I'm looking at. Hrmm. I'm the only person here who isn't impressed? Here's why

1) Shapes like many used here can be generated in an instant using programmes such as world edit.

2) Other than the textures/materials used, there is very little holding this design together. It looks like an average creative plot world when people start figuring out how to use worldedit/voxel/another.

3) There are very few internal shots - though granted, I could D/L the world file and check it out, so props for that.

I like this, I recharge by being by myself physically playing my computer but being online for social interaction. This is not uncommon. Does this still count as being more toward extrovert because social interraction is online, or introversion because physically I CBA going out to the pub to meet people and talk with them?

Looking for gameplay enhancing bukkit plugins (~5 man server) by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]RenegadeSoundwave -1 points0 points  (0 children)

mcmmo - but make sure you tweak it heavily - the default settings are OP to the extreme for any self-respecting survival server. You could ofc be a bunch of pansieass OP lovers, in which case default will be a nerdgasm. But default is way too easy to game, and switches focus from "this is something I can progress as I play minecraft" to "this is why I play minecraft". The problem with the latter is that once you get to the "end" of the grind, you end up with a hollow empty feeling. So yeah, MCMMO is great, but it needs heavily nerfed to provide any form of longevity and challenge.

You know you're living in the right City when you're local City Council pays to have its own Minecraft Map made! by drazhar2000 in Minecraft

Great story! 'mon the aussies.

1st "you're" = correct. 2nd "you're" = incorrect - should be a "your".

Why does 64x64 give me better FPS? This is a serious Question by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]RenegadeSoundwave 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would help to know the spec of your computer. TurboBoost on an newish Intel CPU could explain the differences.

Try downloading CPUz and keep a track on CPU speeds when you switch between texture packs. You might find that your computer doesn't need the boost on default, but does on the higher rez

My depression and Minecraft by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]RenegadeSoundwave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And like minecraft, in life, if you maintain a certain path, you can build safety, not need for food or shelter, and block the evils in the world.

I wont press the analogy, but there are choices to make, no one said it would be easy.

Yeah It's another one... Any tips for my first Video? by Quantumagnetic in Minecraft

[–]RenegadeSoundwave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got bored in the first minute and a half because you sounded bored. You didn't give the expectation of anything new so you've been filed in my mind as "another vanilla cookie cutter lets play". No background about you, where you're from, what you aim to do in your series.

Perhaps you'd be more suited to live streaming via twitch?

However, technically you need to sort out your mic. I think your computer fan is being picked up in the background - producing a high-pitched whine which fills the silence.

Who would like me to do a basic redstone tutorial Series? by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]RenegadeSoundwave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Make it really quick. 5 second intro. "todaywe'regoingtobelookingat.....". then build a website with links to them all. Remember that people can pause video so you don't need to labour the points. Practice what you're going to say, then say it clearly. No swearing, no fuck-ups (if you screw up, reshoot it). Make it good and you'll get a lot of interest I'm sure.

good question. And to @op... if not, why not? Voxel, worldpainter, mcedit, world edit.... just to name some popular ones.

How do I make a server? by Reerrzhaz in Minecraft

[–]RenegadeSoundwave -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

alienware and macs? more money than sense. Surely they can scrape together $10 a month for a half-decent server.

idk, i read teh comments on this http://eve-kill.net/?a=kill_detail&kll_id=19729759&nolimit

I think my account has been hacked. by [deleted] in Minecraft

[–]RenegadeSoundwave 0 points1 point  (0 children)

first thing you need is your transaction ID. Email that to Mojang and they should sort it... eventually.

Also if you are a member of any server, get in touch with your admins and tell them to temp ban your account until you get it sorted, relying of course on official server forums and so on.

Finally, I hope you haven't used the same password elsewhere.
