Chat troubles (within MC)

As this most likely concerns another mod I am using, I did not want to put this thread in the BTW tech support. Hence off topic. =) This morning I updated my Minecraft, with the Mcpatcher (the HD texture thingy). Through that I also updated modloader, mincraft forge, BTW, wireless redstone, singlepl...

Re: Fraps issue (low priority)

Battosay's answer most likely resolved it. :)

Fraps can only record programs that are started up after it, so you need to have Fraps running before starting up Minecraft. (Because of this, Fraps has a tickbox to "startup with windows").

Re: Battosay's video corner (Update 08/08: Elevator Tutorial

Something I was reminded of when you said in your LP that you don't like the sounds an active portal makes; Docm77 has in his world tour a method to automatically turn a portal on or off (in vMC) just by clicking a button. I'm a bit behind on his videos so I'm still looking if he's got a tutorial o...

Re: Castle Build - progress display [UPDATE: 05/08]

It is a block that takes redstone current (transmitter), and sends it to another block to receive it. (receiver). You can set those up with a number as well, up to 1000. So you can have 1000 different receivers/transmitters communicating with each other without interference from other setups. If you...

Re: Castle Build - progress display [UPDATE: 05/08]

For that I cheat... I use the Wireless Redstone to send signals between things. For example from my detector blocks to the pulley circuit, and the buttons to the flipflop, and the output from that to the main gearbox. I wont have this in my future multiplayer server with BTW, so from that point on e...

Re: Castle Build - progress display [UPDATE: 05/08]

Let's see if I can try and explain this. :) Up and down movement: At the top of my elevator is the "main gearbox". That gearbox is connected to a T-flipflop to turn off/on. Every level has a button connected to the T-flipflop so I can push it at ever level (if I want to) to change the outp...

Does not have to be big. You can place a block of wood, and put the panels and mouldings around it. Put remove the block you placed inside and put water in it instead. :)

Re: Ultra compact flip flop with BD

It took me such a long time to figure out the timings on the piston at the bottom, to stop the water from dropping stuff underneath the platform but still have it connected to the platform so it goes in a loop as well. :P But it works! It shall not be touched again ^_^

Although this in itself has not much to do with the cutting of trees, it could be connected after the cutting part to saw the blocks up. I am really quite proud of this setup!! :)
