New? / Returning Player : Kaldorain
« on: 1 Jan 2013, 06:39:02 »
Well, I wasn't sure where to put this, but I guess I'm kinda new to this world. I played back before all the reverts and resets, kinda got blown out on Minecraft in general, but now I'm back. I was one of the founding members of the town Morning Wood back in the day (Birdman is a RL friend of mine). He of course recommend that I try coming back since the server is fairly stable now. So yeah, I'm back and ready to adventure again. It looks like I've missed a lot of stuff, so I'll be playing catch up xD

Here's a rough recording for you. Unedited, no drums, as we don't have a guitarist yet sadly =( Needs work on phrasing and a little bit of icing, but this is the basic structure of the song. California - For My Lies
Band name is For My Lies, or FmL, song name isn't decided yet, either Cali or California. I apologize for my s**tty guitar skills and overbearing-ness. I am a drummer filling in guitar for right now xD

 (Cause of course our servers were up and running! ;D *nudge nudge*)

Get hacked by a 19 year old? haha. When discussing witch is better PS3 or Xbox360, PS3 users always fall back on not having to pay to play online. Once PS3 got hacked and was down for like a month, I realized why i pay $8 a month, witch is SSOOOO expensive.
Exactly! xD OMG!

i think that would be fun :D better then the gay fortresscraft fail.
Yeah, FortressCraft sucks big time >.>[/color]

A very good point Raza!
Meh, I did a 360 around my house when I found out I got one. Then I went outside, jumped and screamed for joy, and ran back in and sat down for a 360 hour long gaming session. (Cause of course our servers were up and running! ;D *nudge nudge*)

I know MineCraft is coming to Xbox, but for those of you who hate waiting, I have a guide for you. This guide for allowing mouse movement to be controller via a controller. This script that I have typed up is specifically only for 360 controllers, as I have no other use for it. That being said, this program works for the following controllers (that I know of):
Wii Remotes
PS3 Controller (If you happen to support the corrupt company of Sony O.O)
Game controller guitars (RB/GH/Third Party Controllers like Mad Catz)
Game Controller Drums ("^^^^^")
Old School Gamepads (Those gamepads that work only with Windows 98 or below) (Yes, I still have these as I ditched PC a long time ago =P)
DJ Hero Turntables


I'm pretty sure anything else will work, just modify the script to suit your playing style and controller.

STEPS TO SETTING UP:
1. Download GlovePie application : http://glovepie.org/GlovePIEWithEmotiv043.zip
2. You will need to install and run the application. To do so, you need to unzip the folder to a location (Example: your desktop)
3. To run the program, open the file labeled as GlovePie.EXE
4. If you are NOT running Windows 98 (As this is a program designed for that system), go to the TroubleShooter tab in the program, and pick FAKE WINDOWS 98.
5. You will need to copy and paste this code into the box, and then I suggest saving it. Let it be known, every time you close the program, you MUST pick FAKE WINDOWS 98. Or else this program will not work.

This is the script/code you will use :


                               //Settings
var.TurnSpeed = 22 //Sensitivity used for right joystick
var.InvSpeed = 36 //Sensitivity used for POVHat - supposed to make it move one square


//Rest is actual code

//Basic movement (Left Stick)
Key.W = EnsureMapRange(Joystick1.y, 0,-1, 0,1)
Key.A = EnsureMapRange(Joystick1.x, 0,-1, 0,1)
Key.S = EnsureMapRange(Joystick1.y, 0,1, 0,1)
Key.D = EnsureMapRange(Joystick1.x, 0,1, 0,1)

//Buttons
Key.Space = Joystick1.Button1 //A
/*This entire block makes it wait a moment, then move the mouse down.
  Makes it more centered on the inventory items but results in the
  view shifting slightly when coming out of inventory*/
if (Pressed(Joystick1.Button7)){ //Back
   Key.I=1
   Key.B=1
   Wait(50ms)
   Mouse.DirectInputY=Mouse.DirectInputY + var.InvSpeed/2
}else{
   Key.I=0
   Key.B=0
}
//Comment out the above if-else block and uncomment the next two lines to disable
//Key.I = Joystick1.Button7
//Key.B = Joystick1.Button7

Key.Escape = Joystick1.Button8 //Start

Key.Shift = Joystick1.Button9 //Left Stick Pressed
Key.Enter = Joystick1.Button4 //Y
Key.R = Joystick1.Button2 //B
Key.F = Joystick1.Button3 //X

//Mouse Stuff
//Turning (Right Stick)
Mouse.DirectInputX = Mouse.DirectInputX + var.TurnSpeed*deadzone(Joystick1.pitch)//Joystick1.Axis4)
Mouse.DirectInputY = Mouse.DirectInputY + var.TurnSpeed*deadzone(Joystick1.yaw)//Axis5)
//Clicking
Mouse.LeftButton = EnsureMapRange(Joystick1.z, 0,-1, 0,1) //RT
Mouse.RightButton = EnsureMapRange(Joystick1.z, 0,1, 0,1) //LT
Mouse.MiddleButton = Joystick.Button10 //Right Stick Button
//Equipped Inventory Navigation
Mouse.WheelUp = Joystick1.Button5 //LB
Mouse.WheelDown = Joystick1.Button6 //RB
//Inventory Navigation (POV Hat)
Mouse.DirectInputX = Mouse.DirectInputX + var.InvSpeed*Pressed(Joystick1.Pov1x)*Joystick1.Pov1x
Mouse.DirectInputY = Mouse.DirectInputY + var.InvSpeed*Pressed(Joystick1.Pov1y)*Joystick1.Pov1y



The code itself has things beside it, so it should be self explanatory. If help be needed to change something, post it here, and I will try to help to the best of my abilities. (Which are lacking)

6. Then you should click RUN!, and you'll have to use your regular mouse to minimize the program (You can't use the controller for some reason...)


THE CONTROLS!:
Your left stick is now W,A,S,D. So when typing, avoid hitting this as it will spam your whole screen xD
Your right stick now controllers the mouse. This means you can navigate your entire computer, from this controller.
Right TRIGGER is left click
Left TRIGGER is right click
I suggest getting a wireless/wired external keyboard. I have my laptop set up to dual screens, and then I lay back on my comfy couch with the keyboard so I can type from a far, and along with this program, use my mouse from afar.

CONTROLS IN MINECRAFT:
For those of you who like Oblivion, this is the PERFECT control scheme for you.

A = Jump
B = Inventory/Backpack
Y = Drop current item (useful to annoy people with, or drop tools to friends from afar with PRECISION!)
X = Toggles Fog (So you can change on the fly, depending on the lag in the current area)
Right TRIGGER = Use to BREAK blocks
Left TRIGGER = Use to SET blocks
Left stick button (crouch in CoD, Oblivion, Any other FPS) = Sneak/Crouch (Allows you to get as far as you can on most blocks and will not allow you to fall, there are exceptions)
D-Pad = Tweaks with camera for those precise measurements, or to aim at those blocks that you can't seem to target because you suck at FPS with a controller, and therefore shouldn't even be using this program in the first place! =D

Cons :
Sometimes it's hard to aim your mouse with a stick, especially if you suck at controllers, or in example : highlighting words to copy and paste.
It's not 120% accurate like a mouse
You have to have a mouse to start the program, there is no way around that, at least that I have found. If anyone finds out, let me know ASAP please!!!

Pros:
You get to feel more comfortable if you are a console person and not a PC (no difference besides one is easier to mod than the other, and one is 100% controlled by a controller or mouse)
Xbox is awesome!
This will feel like you're playing on a console
You can play from afar
Easier to play with the control scheme, once you get used to a controller
Will either speed up or slow down your building rates

I hope everyone enjoys this guide, if any help is needed let me know. If you'd like to change the controls in game, just go to pause>options>controls> pick what action you'd like to change>press the button on the controller you wish it to be.
Simple, easy, and lazy. The TRUE American way!

I'm excited, as I prefer xbox over PC anyday (hence why I use GlocePie to play with my xbox controller). But the Kinect thing confuses me... How will that ever work? xD

« on: 7 Jun 2011, 23:18:24 »
My favs are Her Ghost In the Fog, and Nymphetamine (sp?). I suggest checking them out =)
Yeah, I like the horror gothic metal. Some amazing pianists and lyricists in the business. Not like a lot of the mainstream stuff that really has no expressive talents. (AKA Friday ring any bells?) xD

Yeah, I'd gladly post some videos up guys =) We got a recording of our California song on my mom's nice Cannon camera. Of course the file is f*cking HUGE so it'll take a while to upload. I'll post links here as soon as I get them up =)

« on: 7 Jun 2011, 10:10:58 »
Hey, name is Kaldorain (pronounced Kal-door-e-an, it's elvish. For those humans who don't understand, Kal-Dow-Rain works too)
From the hick state of Missouri. I am one of the rulers of Morning Wood. I have brought my local friends to the server : Birdman2121, Haha Steven, Hollow_Weikel, and Riverwind. I am 17, and am an avid gamer and musician. If you happen to have Xbox Live, and you wish not to spam the chat but actually talk strategically or voice chat while MineCraf-ing, add me : L0 Alexander G0.
I am the leader L.0.G.0. as well (Last Of The Good Ones), an MLG team that plays Reach and Call Of Duty.
I am a drummer/vocalist/guitar/bassist/saxophonist/pianist/lyricist/composer. I play in a local band named: For My Lies, or F.m.L, in which I am a drummer and back-up vocalist. (check us out on FaceBook and soon to be MySpace, cause of course we are AWESOME!) I suggest checking us out if you like anything like My Chemical Romance, Fall Out Boy, BlessTheFall, Blink 182, or Green Day. It's a Punk/Emo/Hardcore band.
If you'd like to know more, just ask. If you'd like some new music to listen to, just ask. You will not see me on much, but when I do get on, I play days at a time.
If you wish to join the quaint community of Morning Wood, feel free to message Birdman2121 or me.
I hope to see you guys in game soon!

Noobstown General / Clearing of Forums (?)

Alright so I'm new, there I said it. But I'm kinda confused. I know there's a lot going on with the server, and I'm trying to keep most up to date as possible. I know plugins are coming and going and ect ect ect ect. But can the forum Admins remove the topics of things that no longer exist or not coming in the new server? I see faction stuff everywhere.. But I just got done reading stuff that said it no longer exist, and it is contradictory and confusing at the least! O.o I know everyone is busy, but could someone please do that? xD My brain can't process all the confusion.
This would greatly appreciated!
Kal

Noobstown General / Re: Who else hates playing since 1.6.6?
« on: 7 Jun 2011, 09:56:26 »
IMO, I like the idea of the new plugins and stuff that is coming, I think it will be great. But in my years of server hosting, I always found it easier to keep the regular server running constantly. It makes people happy. If you decide to try some new plugins, try it on ANOTHER Test Server, as it doesn't require much to run a test one, and have some people test out the new ideas. If the new ideas are likeable, take the back up (One should ALWAYS keep a back up on a USB drive or other external hard drive, so obstacles and events like the hack cannot affect them and you can just reset back to the last save.) and load in the new plugins in to the ACTUAL server. It may cost more as in cash, but the server will get WAY better rep, people will stop getting ****ed off, and everything will run smoother. Thus, equaling more donations ect. I for one, would love to donate, but not until the server seems stable enough.

That being said, I have yet to decide whether I actually like 1.6+ yet. For I have spent more time restarting than actually playing. I know that people like to keep up to date, but I honestly thought it'd be a month or so before the server updated to 1.6 mainly cause of the fact that terrible things like this would happen. It seems everything is plagued with issues. Once again, I suggest the test server to make sure that all the plugins/new ideas work well with the new updated version. I am completely fine with playing 1.5 until 1.6 was deemed stable enough to attempt.

I do believe though that the people who will stay for the new updates, they will help strengthen the community, for they are the vets who can look back and say, "Aw sh*t I don't think it could get any worse." "Well, remember that one time when we restarted so many times in a row?" and everyone can laugh about it =D

MineCraft is still in beta though, so it's far from a finished product. Some mishaps are to be expected. 1.6 so far though on this server is basically a hellish nightmare.

Server Announcements / Re: TEMPORARY SERVER
« on: 7 Jun 2011, 08:45:25 »
Seeing as most people will not bother playing on the temporary server (such as myself), I doubt anyone's actions will affect everyone on the server. But yes, their griefing might bother you in the next server, do you truthfully think that they are going to care what you think about them? xD As for those are trying to do something, don't get too upset if someone destroys it. Seeing as it doesn't REALLY exist anyways. If you wish to protect the "dream" projects, build them in the most darkest corners of the world xD Or bury them all underground. Far far far far far away from anyone you do not trust.
To others who want something to do, I suggest Survival Island. That's what I'm doing xD Just to see if I can do it. Feel free to post your (score/accomplishments). I want proof though =P

Server Announcements / Re: Update!
« on: 6 Jun 2011, 09:36:05 »
Yay! I am actually extremely pleased that you guys did not just give in and shut the server down for good. I've only been on one other server, and when it got hacked the admins said f*ck it. I'll be looking forward to the new server. If another town is needed Birdman2121 and I built Morning Wood, and would love to help in any way possible. Best of luck, hope the server is back up soon!
