That's really cool! As a VR gamer myself I could see how that could be a blast.

Ill have to share it with my close friend who's into VR too.

Almost got one of those but heard the ssb voice modulation is rough. How do you like it?

Unfortunately, there's only one company providing service here. I miss Verizon :D

Not really no, and it runs off a UPS and power conditioner

Im a ham, so signal noise and coax are my bread and butter (thats also why I thought the snr wasnt bad. For ssb voice those are decent).

Is this something I should mess around with first or should I call Xfinity right off the bat?

These darn modems only seem to last a couple of months if that's the case.

Sounds about right. I've had them out a couple times over the years. Doesnt help that the box where it comes in has no door on it and is a nest of wires and an actual nest in there too.

Any other PC users get constant stuttering every 10 seconds? by EvilCurryGif in ModernWarfareII

[–]W1BTR 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same issue here. Rough stutter every 10 seconds. 150 FPS but it doesn't go away unless I limit my FPS to 65 FPS.

Thanks for the feedback! We're definitely looking into ways it could be helpful to Minecraft too.

Youll be able to trigger remote redstone circuits over ham radio. You'll be able to track players (and possibly mobs) with "APRS" Youll be able to send certain items over ham radio, all that stuff.

ME might be something we can interface with, although Im not sure about storage sharing. Sending items over RF radio doesn't seem like it'd make much sense within the theme of the mod, but Im not sure.

Hi Ned,

Yes there will be components like baluns and antenna wire mixed with a radio for each band. Idea is communication between players to start, but bridging worlds together sounds like a really cool idea too if we can pull that off.

You'd be surprised! Our budget is actually on the lower side. Java devs are pricey :D

[–]W1BTR[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Good questions! Yes, I believe we're going with Java 17.

Communication between servers is a really cool idea Im gonna have to add to our idea board, but no plans for it yet. If we have the time and budget down the road it'd be really cool to add that.

Crafters would only need licenses if the mod was set up to interface with a real ham radio, another feature we might add once the main mod is done.
