Edit: Wait, I have one on my ipod, so I can ipod skype :P

(And I can get a youtube account for this)
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: hellninjas on February 03, 2012, 08:41:48 pm: Nope.avi Just PURE survival, but without greifing and such
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 03, 2012, 08:42:44 pm: Nope to what
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: hellninjas on February 03, 2012, 08:43:14 pm: Nope to da skyblock.
Ganna be a randomly generated level!
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 03, 2012, 08:52:56 pm: Might I be that "other guy with Minecraft?" My laptop and desktop both freak out when I try to record Minecraft for some reason, and though I've made a server before, I haven't had luck with it.

EDIT: I do have Skype and a mic.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 03, 2012, 09:02:26 pm: I have Skype, a mic, and a server, and I've wanted to do a Minecraft Survival Let's Play, but my computer can't handle recording Minecraft, even with Minema. I might be able to help, if you can get everyone else necessary on board, though I do have a semi-heavy class load, so no promises.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 04, 2012, 12:03:19 am: I've really wanted to do a survival YouTube series with people :D

I have a server, but it's a creative server and filled already...
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: AngelFish on February 04, 2012, 01:41:30 am: I'd be happy to play/build if you need someone else. I tend to be pretty good at pure survival, although I can't record anything.

As for the server, any SMP server with local-only chat would probably work.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 04, 2012, 03:59:14 pm: I can record and post to youtube :D

I tried recording with bandicam and my computer stayed fine.
I did need to make some adjustments to reduce the quality from 4 minutes of footage for a gigabyte O.O

However, it says bandicam at the top of the video

Does the Minema mod work for you? Because that's supposed to be a lower lag recorder, and it doesn't have a watermark.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 04, 2012, 05:37:47 pm: But minema has no sound, so Id rather have a watermark. But I'll search for something without one

Oh, I didn't realize that.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: hellninjas on February 04, 2012, 06:03:04 pm: So it seems that...
Epic7 is the recorder...
BlakPilar == That other guy xD
FinaleTi is the survival server provider!
@BlakPilar, you asked first so thats why i chose you :D
@Epic7 Prepare the recorder! (But we will run a test first to make sure it works)
@FinaleTi Could you make a WHOLE new world that we could venture upon?
@Everyone What do you think the video should be called? Minecraft omni Let's play! ?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 04, 2012, 06:11:05 pm: Awesome! I can't wait :)
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 04, 2012, 06:14:10 pm: I can get a new world generated, no prob. Do you think it would be possible if we could maybe utilize the Smart Moving mod? If not, that's fine, just let me know.
And once the world is set up, do you want me to PM everyone involved the server IP, or not just yet? Oh, and do you want a random seed, or do you have one picked out?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 04, 2012, 06:18:19 pm: The smart moving mod seems pretty cool. Also, seed -405237182 gives a pretty cool island map.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: hellninjas on February 04, 2012, 07:39:10 pm: Just a completely random seed K :D
And what is the smart moving mod?
ALso what exactly do you mean to pm everyone involved in the server IP?
Do you mean all the people participating in this Let's Play, or others that you have in your server?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 04, 2012, 07:43:57 pm: 1) Smart moving mod (http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/361430-11smp-smart-moving/).
2) He means send the four of us who are going to be in it the IP of the server in a message when we're all ready.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: hellninjas on February 04, 2012, 07:51:51 pm: 1) WOA, ok yes include the smart moving mod! :D!!
2) Ok that's fine :D
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 04, 2012, 07:53:45 pm: So do we have a scheduled time, or are we just going to do it when everyone is ready?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: hellninjas on February 04, 2012, 07:54:23 pm: Hmm, maybe we should wait for everyone to be ready, like if something comes up and one of us can't make it.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 04, 2012, 07:56:11 pm: Ahh, okay. I could do it on weekends fine (except maybe Fridays), and lately I haven't had much homework so I should be good mid-late school days.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: hellninjas on February 04, 2012, 07:57:13 pm: And I could do it anytime between 4:00 PM and 12:00 PM!
Any day of course ;D
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 04, 2012, 07:58:41 pm: Do you mean 12:00 AM? ;) and if we're going to do specific times, 5:00-ish PM - 10:00-ish PM would be good for me if I don't have much homework.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 04, 2012, 08:12:14 pm: Later in the evening usually works for me, probably 5:00pm to 9:00pm-ish on school days, and on Fridays, I'm almost guaranteed available starting around 3:00pm to 10:00pm. On the weekends, it varies, but generally around the same time as Monday through Thursday should work.

The server is set up with the Smart Moving mod, so you'll all just need the ModLoaderMP version of it installed on your clients to get on.

I'll generate a world later, and would you like me to PM everyone now? I'll need you to PM me back with your Minecraft usernames, so I can whitelist you guys.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: hellninjas on February 04, 2012, 08:14:34 pm: Yes go ahead and pm everyone!
Ask for when there available
And my username is hellninjas
Who woulda guessed?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 04, 2012, 08:17:14 pm: My username is epic07... Epic7 was taken :P

Does that mean I have to download modloader?

Edit: Whoops, double post D:
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 04, 2012, 08:27:37 pm: Yes. It requires ModLoader, ModLoaderMP and PlayerAPI as dependencies.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 04, 2012, 08:28:10 pm: I have to download 3 things?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 04, 2012, 08:38:17 pm: Here's everything you'll need:
ModLoader (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/20629262/Latest/ModLoader.zip)
ModLoaderMP (http://www.mediafire.com/?atepu4uj228qsnt)
PlayerAPI (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/41082508/Minecraft/Modding/Player%20API/MC%201.1%20-%20Player%20API%20client%201.1.zip)
Smart Moving (http://dl.dropbox.com/u/41082508/Minecraft/Modding/Smart%20Moving/MC%201.1%20-%20Smart%20Moving%206.10.zip) (Make sure you use the SmartMoving Client for ModLoaderMp zip inside the download)
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 04, 2012, 08:43:47 pm: ModLoader doesn't want to work with my Minecraft.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: AngelFish on February 04, 2012, 08:46:49 pm: Does SmartMoving really add anything worthwhile to an SMP series? It introduces a lot of setup difficulties and prevents people from immediately updating Minecraft without returning a whole lot additional benefit (aside from being really cool).
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 04, 2012, 08:48:09 pm: Well I got it working and connected, then I got disconnected.

EDIT: I'm on now.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: hellninjas on February 04, 2012, 08:51:53 pm: OK, so FinalTi PM everyone,
I'm thinking the schedule be 6:00 PM to 6:45 PM Central Time
Wednesdays
And we are going to add one more member!
Qwerty.55 is now "Another minecrafler"
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 04, 2012, 08:55:52 pm: ~Schedule conflict~

I would say just "Omnicraft." Does the existing Omnicraft channel have any videos?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Juju on February 05, 2012, 10:11:09 pm: Why not uploading videos on your existing channel?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 05, 2012, 10:14:21 pm: Rather than starting with 0 views, maybe. I have an old channel with like 300 subscribers or something filled with some rather stupid spongebob remixes that get a bunch of views :p

There's a bunch of videos while searching omnicraft. Omnicraft seems to be an existing server already, and I think I saw it has like 150 users on it.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: annoyingcalc on February 05, 2012, 10:20:02 pm: lol link to your channel? (so I can know where to get the vids)
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 05, 2012, 10:23:54 pm: Well, I don't know if we'll be using my channel

Even if we do, we need a name for the series still.

Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 05, 2012, 10:54:06 pm: I reccomend reducing the quality first :P

Also I'll probably buy a microphone
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 06, 2012, 07:21:06 am: Hmm... If the channel wasn't strictly Minecraft, then we could just call it Omniplay (and then then game after it like "Omniplay -- Minecraft"). If we did that then we could add videos of other games too.

Hopefully I'll have a microphone by then.

For names, OmniMine or OmniMinecraft sound good

Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Juju on February 06, 2012, 08:32:40 pm: >.co.cc
It's blacklisted by Google.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 06, 2012, 08:47:21 pm: I know, but .tk is down right now, and it's not like it's absolutely necessary for a semi-private server's IP to come up in Google. Are there any other free domains not blacklisted?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Juju on February 06, 2012, 08:49:00 pm: Oh, it's for the server, I guess there's no problem. Or else you can go to http://freedns.afraid.org/.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 06, 2012, 08:54:22 pm: Are there any objections to having omnimine.co.cc as a server IP? If not, I'll register it and see about getting it set up to direct to the server. It might take a little while for me to set it up if I do.

Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 07, 2012, 04:11:20 pm: I'll probably change that to various screenshots of stuff from the world we've been building in. I might also change the background to a screenshot of our survival world.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 07, 2012, 04:13:56 pm: Ooo, that sounds nifty. Another cool thing would be if instead of the Facebook and Twitter image links there on the nav menu, we put the Omnimaga logo. (That is, unless we don't want the traffic lol.)
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 07, 2012, 04:42:04 pm: Sounds good. I'll probably also try to throw together an Omnimine logo, though I'm not sure how well it'll turn out.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 07, 2012, 04:46:42 pm: Random logo idea: Omnimaga O on top of minecraft block.

So, on the channel will we add some other things like tutorials and creations in addition to the multiplayer survival?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 07, 2012, 05:13:44 pm: Maybe mod spotlights as well?

For the logo, I was thinking "Omnimine" in a font similar to "Omnimaga" in the banner with an Omni-themed Creeper in the background. I'm definitely putting this creeper skin in the texture packs I use... Maybe we should all have it in our texture packs while filiming, as an Omnimine thing.
Title: Re: Minecraft

Email (Optional)
Facebook (Optional)
Twitter (Optional)
Short description of what you're bringing to the series
Avatar (If you want me to use your Omni one, just let me know)

Also, do you think that we should create an [email protected] or something for if people want to contact us, and that we would all have the login info for it?

Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 07, 2012, 07:04:33 pm: You're still opped, I've just moved everyone to a group with fewer permissions to be less tempting when we record, plus I'm still getting used to Permissions Ex. Eventually, I'll be adding in some of the more creative/adminy permissions to our current building world, so you'll be able to use TMI and stuff there again.
Title: Re: Minecraft

If you plan to allow people on the server, then yeah, I think it'd be a good idea to do this so you can whitelist them. That way no random people come on and grief.

EDIT: Also, awesome work on the logo so far! :D
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 07, 2012, 08:04:21 pm: I'd like to eventually expand the server so that people besides the actors could join and play in our non-filming worlds, but that'll probably wait until I actually have a source of income, because my parents are graciously paying for my server currently, and I don't wish to overstep some sort of boundary. If Omnimine gets popular, I might be able to convince them to bump the plan up a level or two, but I'm not counting on it.

For now, I just have [email protected] forwarding to my email. If lots of people email me, I'll probably set up the dedicated gmail.

And thanks.

HECK YEA!

Ok, looks like we're probably ready to start recording soon.

Im using bandicam for minecraft until/unless i find something else (it has watermark and 10 min limit :/) I also found a program for Skype conversations -> mp3, and I finally got my microphone :D
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 07, 2012, 10:52:23 pm: @Finale: if everyone else agrees with me (which I would think they will because it's pretty reasonable), I say that if you setup a donation option on the site, the money go to help you run the server. (I know servers, at least good ones, aren't exactly cheap.)

@epic7: You know Hyperion or whoever made HyperCam free for use, right? Unless they fixed the problem, though, the sound and video will be off by about 0.75 seconds. Just enough to be annoying.

When I get back on my computer tomorrow, I'll PM everyone my Skype username. Just reply back with yours so I don't go accepting a random request lol.

I can always edit the video to put the sound back in sync

How time passes.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 08, 2012, 07:01:22 am: @epic7: HyperCam is out of sync. It has sound; you can record from mic and I think it might do system sound recording too. But the downside, like I said, is the sound and video are slightly out of sync :/

Post by: FinaleTI on February 10, 2012, 03:44:15 pm: Here's the Omnicreeper skin for those who want to use it in their texture pack of choice. Currently it's for 16x16 texture packs, but if there's another size people want, I'll see what I can do. (A template creeper skin of HD size would be nice if you request an HD size).
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 10, 2012, 04:15:11 pm: How do I put that in my texture pack? (I'm using the default one)
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 10, 2012, 04:25:56 pm: Um... Do you mean that's a skin?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 10, 2012, 04:27:14 pm: If you're using the default texture pack, you can open up your minecraft.jar with 7zip or Winrar and navigate to the "mob" folder, then drag and drop the new creeper.png file in. If you use a custom texture pack, it's the same procedure, except you open the zip containing the texture pack from your texture packs folder instead of the minecraft.jar.

@Blak: It's a custom skin for the Creeper mob, not a player skin. It belongs in your texture pack, in the mob folder.

Weird, Camstudio worked for me. But I never could get it to record above 25 fps, even in 320x240 or so. As for Bandicam, is the watermark at the very top/bottom and can the video files open in VirtualDub? Because if that's the case, then you could simply crop the video in there then save again in a software that produces reasonable file sizes (VirtualDub compression is horribly slow, regardless of the codec used, and produces larger sizes than any other softwares it seems).
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 16, 2012, 07:26:15 am: I was going to suggest cropping the video too.

I forget though, is there a limit to how much you can record with Bandicam?
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: epic7 on February 16, 2012, 03:28:18 pm: Yeah, I can crop it without making it too thin. The limit is 10 min of footage, but I can easily just quickly stop and restart the video.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 16, 2012, 03:36:17 pm: Well YouTube recommends only 10 minutes of footage anyway. We/you would just have to keep track of the time.

I believe that is around 26-30 US Dollars if I am no mistaken
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 18, 2012, 12:40:23 pm: Yeah, it's something like that. So they bumped up the price then, evidently.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: saintrunner on February 18, 2012, 12:41:05 pm: It's still not that much. That's cheaper than a lot of the games I've seen
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 18, 2012, 12:43:29 pm: True. But compared to when it was in alpha it's a lot (it was like $10). Then again, you've got a crap load more stuff to do.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 18, 2012, 02:41:41 pm: True, often I notice new Xbox 360 games that are $69.99 or something. But again Minecraft is much more expensive than Crystal Towers 2 for example :P (which is around $5)
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 18, 2012, 03:54:44 pm: Yeah the expensive price of new XBox games doesn't make sense to me because they're on regular DVDs, but PS3 games are on BluRays, yet they're the same price.

Minecraft for XBox in the arcade when it comes out is going to be 1600MSP ($20).

Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: FinaleTI on February 18, 2012, 09:13:08 pm: We could get around the Bandicam watermark by extending the recording area a little above the game window, then cropping it out of the video. I just found I'm also able to record without too much lag with Bandicam, so I can act as a backup recorder, just in case.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: DJ Omnimaga on February 19, 2012, 12:25:24 am: Oh it lets you capture any size too? I know Fraps for example only captures a fixed area and that fixed area is what the game or emulator takes.

However cropping will be a problem if none of the file format can open in VirtualDub (for example, when I use Koyotesoft video converter, nothing opens in VirtualDub afterward, and with Camstudio-generated AVI files, only two format open at all)

I'm gonna give bandicam a try eventually. Camstudio is nice, but slow, and if Bandicam's watermark is near the very top or bottom, then the slowdown caused by the extra recording area size shouldn't be too bad.

Post by: epic7 on February 21, 2012, 12:38:53 pm: /me has returned from his mini-vacation

I guess I'll try increasing the screen size, even though I like to play in full screen...

Also, I got my minecraft for $10 during 1.0 from eBay :P
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 21, 2012, 05:10:35 pm: eBay doesn't count :P

Recording-wise, I tried CamStudio on my desktop and it wasn't too bad, so if I mod it with OptiFine it should be better. Then again, that was single player, and my room is the room farthest away from the modem :/

Post by: epic7 on February 22, 2012, 03:22:44 pm: Ah, minecraft.

Minecraft is the reason I haven't programmed anything in a long time.
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: Jonius7 on February 23, 2012, 08:38:10 pm: How long is a long time? I haven't programmed anything hardly since Julyish last year (just minor edits), and no new programs since beginning of 2011.
Kinda due to minecraft. and terraria, and mostly Runescape, and other stuff.
And about the minecraft price, well the file size is quite small, and Terraria sells for $9.95

Anybody want my server address?

So, is this topic for the general discussion of minecraft, which can be assumed since the topic title is simply "minecraft" :P, or is this for OmniMine?

We should get OmniMine started sometime :D
Title: Re: Minecraft
Post by: BlakPilar on February 23, 2012, 10:33:54 pm: I would guess it's for general discussion, but we've been using it for OmniMine. And we need a time when we can all go on, or do what someone (I think either FinaleTI or Qwerty) suggested: only have three or four people on at a time because six or seven people for one survival video would be too many. I've had a lot of homework lately, so I think my time window for going on is growing smaller.

I'm generally available in the evenings, and I can act as a recorder in case epic07 isn't able to for a session, for whatever reason. Also, if we want to putz around in capes, or other custom accessories for some reason, or something else, I'd love to practice some more Minecraft modding.

I'm available fairly often, if anyone else thinks they'll be available anytime soon, we can give this a go. Maybe we should try sticking with the original 4 for the first few episodes, if possible?

I thought I gave you the server IP? If not, I can PM it to you.

I was thinking that it might be a good idea to create a Google account for Omnimine so that we can then use the calendar to denotate when everyone is available and better coordinate filming times. That account could then also be used as the central contact email for Omnimine, among other things. What do you guys think?

Edit: It appears that [email protected] is already taken, so what do you guys think of [email protected]? Just for paranoia's sake, I'm placing this in code tags, so it doesn't show up on a Google search.

I can do other days, but I figure those would be the best for most people. Even if the first episode had only two or three people, I think it'd be a good idea to kickstart this.

I'm currently building a large map with a few of my IRL friends (and possibly BlakPilar) on my server, and we might Let's Play that build after we finish the town, but I can definitely work in time for Omnimine whenever.

Please respect the map that my friends and I are working on. We want this to be a serious project. You are free to contribute to the map, but please try to keep buildings in the same style as the rest of the map. The town currently lacks a town square and a few smaller houses, if you guys wish to take a stab at those.

And also, I'm not sure why, but when I got on today, the map was overrun with chickens... So please don't spawn creatures of anykind. I was severely lagging out.

Post by: FinaleTI on April 16, 2012, 08:11:27 pm: I'm willing to give ComputerCraft a go, but I'm gonna have to pass on explosives. My computer already has problems enough running Minecraft. :P

Equivalent Exchange does add some pretty nifty stuff, like a super arrow machine gun ring, a ring that evaporates huge craters of water/creates fountains of water, and a flight ring just to name a few. There are a few explosives, but those collect all the drops in one neat little stack and are specifically for mining.

We should look into some ComputerCraft programs that utilize RedNet for maximum multiplayer awesomeness, as well as those creations you've got.

So if you have a minecraftserver and want to update to 1.3.1:
think of all the users playing on a cracked version! They all won't be ably to play on your server anymore!
