Cookie Num Num Project: Nariko Greenhouse
Posted by: brilokuloj - 01-17-2024, 06:33 AM - Forum: Eggcraft 4.0 - Replies (4)

Not too far off from the bank, that patch of random crops has been taking shape. What could be happening here?


I have, in fact, been working on this. The only problem is that I need glass. I need a whole large chest worth of glass blocks.

So I need to smelt sand. In order to smelt sand I need to clear out lava so that digging up the sand at the bottom of the world does not kill me. And smelting cobblestone has been wearing my pick down to a nub and I'm running out of diamond. So I've been scooping lava to roast potatoes. And now I have a lot of roast potatoes. You don't even want to see how many roast potatoes I have. And still not enough sand to make glass.

  Bug Reports
Posted by: brilokuloj - 01-16-2024, 05:01 AM - Forum: Eggcraft 4.0 - Replies (5)

Bug reports go HERE please, I have a small brain and cannot keep track of when they're sent over chat

Troubleshooting

  • How to change Java version: Right click on your instance in Prism Launcher, then hit Edit, then go to Settings. Press auto-detect and select 1.8.0.

  • Java not detected: Press Browse and navigate to it manually; it should be in a location like C:/Program Files/Java/jre1.8.0_381/bin/javaw.exe.

Known Issues

  • Sorry that the tips mention Harambe.

  • Logging in sometimes displays "Failed to login: null"; no fix found yet, just keep connecting
  • Sometimes hangs on "atlas stitching"; no fix found yet, just restart the game
  • Putting animals on a unicorn takes up both riding slots
  • Custom banner patterns crash the game (no clue where to even start with fixing this)
  • Need to fix XP bottling datapack
  • Food completion achievement requires a blacklisted food
  • King St. Bee won't sit her ass down

This is a placeholder post for when I get around to making the spreadsheet.

In the meantime you can post your personal houses or interesting locations here. Emphasis on can, if you'd rather your house be a secret that's OK too

Minecraft Lore/RP general discussion
Posted by: brilokuloj - 01-11-2024, 04:53 AM - Forum: Eggcraft 4.0 - Replies (6)

As requested, a thread for talking about the lore.

A primer here.

Some loose thoughts I've had shaking around in the ol' noggin:

  • Not everyone wants to RP in chat. Not everyone wants to be OOC in chat. It would be nice to have a way to visually differentiate these. I would specifically like to have a separate ingame chat channel for RP, but that seems to be mainly a Spigot plugin thing, and we are not a Spigot server...blaaargghhghg. Until I can make any progress on this I think any serious RP is gonna have to wait because I can't break character every five minutes to do tech support.

  • in the meantime I guess you could prefix with "IC:" or something if you need the clarification, I just want to avoid OOC brackets bc I don't want no-live-RP players to feel like they have to bracket everything
  • Haven't done them in a while, but most of the really RP-y things I've done in the past have been holiday events
  • Some canon characters that I'm probably gonna have to write about individually: Flavis, The Chicken Man, Squirby, Mayor Dinnerbone, Anvil
  • The staple canon locations that usually get remade: Rainbow Corner, Sandcastle, Wither Mesa, Gay Commune, The Dig
  • Nobody on the server knows what the paintings depict. Uh, I guess Feely and Chips probably recognize themselves, but who knows why they're depicted in ancient paintings

Cookie Num Num Idea: Food Mod
Posted by: brilokuloj - 01-11-2024, 03:07 AM - Forum: Eggcraft 4.0 - Replies (4)

We need an obligatory injoke food mod, right? It's the fucking EggwareXYZ Minecraft server.

Some ideas I wrote down:

  • Blaze Burger (typo of Blaze Burner)
  • Entirety of Burger Burger menu
  • Microplastics (joke stolen from feedthememes but it's stuck in my head)
  • Popeyes Chicken Sandwich ( Chicken Sandwich )

Video Games Idea: New Seals
Posted by: brilokuloj - 01-11-2024, 02:24 AM - Forum: Eggcraft 4.0 - Replies (12)

yeah yeah, he was forced to eat cement

That out of the way, Huck pointed out the Seals, a mod feature that lets you have a subtitle above your avatar based on what achievements you've gotten - you could be a Miner, a Crafter, etc. But she also rightfully pointed out that these requirements are ridiculously grindy. Take a look for yourself if you don't mind spoilers:

They're also, in my opinion, not very Eggware-y. That might not matter to you but it does to me.

So I am reaching out: based on the standard Minecraft advancements, or any interesting advancements within the pack, or even your own requirements if I can figure out how the fuck to make custom advancements, can you think of some fun or funny titles?

Cookie Num Num 4 New Peeps Flavors
Posted by: brilokuloj - 01-10-2024, 07:56 PM - Forum: Eggy News - Replies (1)

Peeps has announced their new flavors for 2024:

  • Peeps Rice Krispies Treats Flavored Marshmallow Chicks (Walmart exclusive)
  • Peeps ICEE Blue Raspberry Flavored Marshmallow Chicks (Target exclusive)
  • Peeps Sour Strawberry Flavored Marshmallow Chicks (Kroger exclusive)
  • Peeps Delights S’mores Graham Cracker Flavored Marshmallow Chicks Dipped in Milk Chocolate

I have no Kroger stores in my area so I'm basically fucked, it's only a matter of time before I make a Harry Du Bois-tier spectacle of myself in public.

If you weren't around for the 2022 Peeps stream, I'd like to archive it (blog post?) at some point, but I think this drawing I did at the time sums it up best:

If you find the Sour Strawberry Peeps it is your moral obligation to tell me how they are. Especially because I don't know if Paula will allow me to do a Peeps 2024. Not Coping

Scrooge Build: The Bank
Posted by: brilokuloj - 01-09-2024, 06:26 AM - Forum: Eggcraft 4.0 - Replies (3)

[Image: bank_wip.png]

You may have spotted this unsightly thing within the past few days. What is it? How is it being held up in the air? The Mayor claims this will be The Bank, a place where anyone can store "their massive quantities of cobblestone, and probably other blocks, right?"


If you were on previous Eggcrafts you may remember that the organization of The Bank has always been its weak point - too much fucking running around. I thought long and hard about how I was going to handle it this time around. To tell you the truth I have decided to plan absolutely nothing except for vague ideas. There are so many new blocks and items, I couldn't even begin to guess what we will need more or less of. But the existence of Storage Crates (huge amount of mixed blocks) and Storage Vaults (huge amount of a single block) should make this trivial.

I've split the Bank into its four prominent quadrants: Tools, Items, Blocks, and Blocks 2. There is also a little extra space for whatever-the-hell. Overall it's much smaller, which I think is a good thing - it's a place to run in, grab a couple extra blocks for a build, and run out. I intend on using Nariko's mines for mass storage.

And, yes, in spite of its state, it is currently available for use. I just need to make a lot more chests... and item frames... Drop your excess goods off in the Storage Crate in the middle-back and I'll sort them once I've made more space.

  Project: Underside Highway (The Nether)
Posted by: brilokuloj - 01-09-2024, 05:42 AM - Forum: Eggcraft 4.0 - Replies (2)

I don't have a map or any significant plans yet so this is pretty much a placeholder. I figured I'd list the current locations, though.

Locations

  • -79, 106: Nariko

  • 0, 0: Center of the World (Nature's Compass)
  • -690, -390: Unnamed badlands

Guidelines
Lore-wise, the Nether is being rehabilitated into a public transport system with a very tacky gift shop and some tourist attractions. I've tried imposing "please contact me before making a portal" but that has never worked out and I've come to accept that, so here are my simple guidelines that should hopefully keep things in line with my vision:

  • Path to portal must be at Y 63 (portal itself can vary within reason)
  • Path to portal must be as much of a straight line as possible
  • Portal is placed to the SIDE of the path, so that the line can keep going
  • Portal must not lead directly into someone's personal home
  • If you do need a vanity portal, keep it off of Y 63 and expect it to be temporary

Future plans
Gonna need a lot of ice.
Feel free to list biomes or notable locations you would want easy access to.
