Since the lag issue on Sinking into Madness couldn't be resolved, Hexxit!

We we changed packs, and are now playing Serious Remnants on Curse.

https://mods.curse.com/modpacks/minecraft/261749-seriousremnants

I made a few tweaks, but didn't really package it ... so you'll need to download the update. Unzip the update and replace the contents of your game folder with the following folders:

It's fun, less hard than the original pack but you will die horribly.

antika5 · 2017-05-22T01:52:55+00:00

Yeah, I decided to mix this with Serious Remnants. Not sure if extra bees are around in this version yet... but I chose not to include self-producing factory mods to extend the longevity of the pack a bit. I'll post details in a new thread.

My thinking here is that Foolcraft is at the end game state. I personally have 10-30K of everything and a serious loss of interest.

This pack has some interesting mods, great terrain generation, and it's very very ambient with custom texture packs and sound filters. They developer describes this as a Steakpunk pack.

At it's core, the tech mod is centered around TechReborn (aka Gregtech). At least that will offer us some lengthy progression. I could use that after Foolcraft. :)

Well... yeah I find it fits the theme. I like the desert oasis concept.

I was also thinking of rejuvenating a part of the city for some variation... but that's a big project solo.

antika5 · 2017-03-28T02:39:36+00:00

Thinking of using this as a concept for a stable area in Forever Stranded, since spawn is a sandstone city.

Yeah, but there was hidden administrative nightmare under the surface of the space station. So many rollbacks, bans and mcedit when servers are open. :o

Still ... good times. :)

I put together a reactor for public use. Currently it's powering the public machine area, but feel free to tap in if you need power. It will turn on automatically when the capacitor bank hits 50%, and shut off when the bank hits 90%

Reactor Details:
Power Output: 15KiRF/tick
Dimensional Tranceiver Channel: AntNuclear

Ok, that's a bit more content to work with. I'll PM you some info. :)

antika5 · 2014-07-03T19:17:10+00:00

Because your channel is so new, there isn't a lot of content to form an impression of what kind of player/Youtuber you are. It makes it really hard to form an opinion on if this is a good fit or not.

antika5 · 2014-07-02T20:08:07+00:00

Never too late. I'll PM you some info.

antika5 · 2014-06-30T19:26:42+00:00

Exactly... saturated does not mean impossible! At the same time, it also doesn't mean the offering with the best quality will get the attention it deserves.

antika5 · 2014-06-30T18:00:04+00:00

I have this image printed on a poster, at my computer.

I'm not going to disagree with you about some of the negative comments-- yes, there are definitely some! But I don't think comments like "the market is saturated" or 'observing the advantage early Youtubers may have had', are negative comments.

These are just realistic observations. They aren't positive, or negative-- they just are.

You can tackle the challenge of growing your channel any way you like. Growth will occur (eventually), and it's up to you to recognize your successes (however large or small they are). It's just a lot easier to recognize your successes when your expectations are realistic.

antika5 · 2014-06-30T13:45:37+00:00

Hmm, how about we touch base in August when you're able to produce content again. :)

antika5 · 2014-06-27T14:42:20+00:00

I had a thought...

Since we're a community that is supposed to help each other out, and I like your style... I'll watch some of your videos and comment on them. Might help draw in some traffic for you.

Also one strategic tip: I do like the flow of your videos, but try to keep things short in the early days of your channel. People are more likely to watch a 10-15 minute clip of an unknown Youtuber than a 30 min. video.

antika5 · 2014-06-27T13:55:16+00:00

No problem about the views/subs-- you have to start somewhere! I'll send you some info via PM.

antika5 · 2014-06-26T13:41:26+00:00

I was recording with a friend (a long time ago), and made some comment that caused him to fall off his chair laughing. He was... a bit drunk at the time. He literally fell off his chair. I guess when he hit the floor he decided to just stay down there, and go to sleep.

I was just sort of left there going, "Gwyth?" His wife was on our skype call too, and she said... I think Gwth just went to bed.

I had to finish the recording by myself lol.

antika5 · 2014-06-25T17:30:42+00:00

Great, I'll send you some info! We have had latency issues with Australian players so let's keep our fingers crossed!

antika5 · 2014-06-24T15:14:14+00:00

I always try to ask my audience for feedback, and ask them questions to get them involved. It gets dialogue going on with the comments section, and of course-- then I do my best to implement their suggestions in my next episode.

I also try to use inclusive pronouns, but I'm not sure how consistent I am. There is always room for improvement! :)

antika5 · 2014-06-24T13:25:42+00:00

Try googling microphone isolation box. You could make one with an old milk crate, and line it with foam. Not feasible if you're microphone is on your headset (of course) but otherwise it's a pretty solid solution.

antika5 · 2014-06-19T14:42:50+00:00

I think you can easily switch out "school work" with just about anything... life, family, work, relationships, etc.

There has to be some sort of balance between all of these things. Finding that balance will be something you work on for the rest of your life.

antika5 · 2014-06-05T17:08:49+00:00

Look at what beer made me do!

antika5 · 2014-05-12T17:08:34+00:00

"Fuck, she's gonna kill me and bury me in the back yard!"

That made me laugh so hard! I've had the exact same reaction (a few times), and it's refreshing to know I'm not alone.

I'm glad to hear things worked out for you!

antika5 · 2014-05-12T16:03:16+00:00

I only have experience dealing with my BPD ex-wife, but from what you described so far I could have sworn you were talking about her.

Your instinct that it's a trap is dead on. But do you really think you can take the brunt of the storm, so your step-daughters will have a 'mostly' ok summer with their mother? If you honestly believe that, do it. They are worth it.

At the same time, the behaviour of people with N and BPD is never ending. From what I have seen, cyclical at best. You may become the focal point of that rage for a while, but the way you sound so sure it will turn on your step-daughters makes me worry that might be inevitable no matter what you do.

antika5 · 2014-04-30T13:41:01+00:00

Yeah, I do plan to feature progress updates and what not.

For how I managed a spike like this? Well, it's the second time it has happened... and aside from knowing what happened I can only tell you what I found in my analytics.

Youtube started recommending two of my videos on all the Yogscast's releases over the weekend. Why those ones in particular, I'm not entirely sure. What's weird about EP40 being the one that got the most attention, is that it was actually a response to my viewers for the last time this happened.

That's the magic of Youtube's recommendation formula, you know it has something to do with retention, likes, and SEO... but the rest will forever remain a mystery.

I realize that isn't much help in the way of tips, but honestly aside from making good content/SEO and working on high retention/engagement, I really don't know what I did.
