Prologue /Intro / What is this project
lets make a few things clear...
1] i dont have birthdays i level up. im currently level 24
2] im not a troll im a ork.
now thats thats out of the way...
this project contains aspects from all my fav games. see the list in the credits however it will be maininly focused around FFTA:2, FFVII, & Megaman Legends
This project takes place on FF7's Midgar map HOWEVER we are using ALL of the items & Class's from FFTA:2, The plot/story has not been decided however ive given it some thought & i think everyone whos played both games is going to LOVE how i have it
i started playing MC around 8/4/2012 for MC 1.2.5 on bukket with the plugin runecraft. over time i found myself building & working on an RPG. i have been working on it for a few years now & the project has changed over time, the team has always been small, i wanted to keep it that way to make sure this was all done just right. i was also waiting for minecraft to advance some more & AEGIS GAMING to release the map, i also needed figure out a better class system. but ive progressed enough to where i can show you something worth your time

Gameplay & Player Goals
Midgar is split into 8 sectors with upper & lower level aka 16 zones.
PVP is going to be a HUGE aspect of the server as it is also important.
Day Cycle - PvP is DISABLED FOR ALL PLAYERS IN THE UPPER CITY OF MIDGAR
Night Cycle - Pvp is ENABLED FOR ALL PLAYERS IN ALL ZONES
if you dont like pvp you should A or B
A] stay in the city during the day & buy a house for the night to keep your self & items safe.
B] get out of the city and hide REALLY far away and hope no one ever finds you
C] log out at night however your items can be stolen from your house
In order for a sector or building to function it will require power, everyone in their sector is response able for keeping their respective reactor going, you can do this by mining, drilling, or steal another sectors supply. if the reactor runs out of power...all the street lights, buildings functions, that would require power stop functioning
A player can decide who to fight but keep in mind if you both are working for Sector # its smarter to work together to keep your sector alive while causing chaos to neighbouring sectors
IF a sector does not have power during a night cycle it is extremely hard to see. this will make the sector easy to invade. no power can trigger special events within that sector. so watch your back....
The player’s general goals should be to, this is the recommended order
- Obtain the class he/she desires
- Go level up
- Go Questing, Mining, Or Player Killing [Depending on time of day]
- Buy/rent a place in the city
- Progress & Leave the city when you think you are ready
you can go outside the city and build your own, getting out of the city is as easy as walking out of the slums however that is IF you can survive the Harsh Weather Conditions. Temperature Changes, Hydration, Air Quality, Gases, Food Spoiling, Mobs, oh & Sanity dont go crazy!
Every race can choose between several primary Classes without requirements. Mastering a class by earning exp unlocks secondary jobs. Characters can freely switch to any primary or unlocked secondary class outside of battle. this mod is still being built so it will a little while before we can use it

i will be working on a general list of items that are allowed to be used to build a ship
✓ = Working As Intended Or Close Enough | X = Does Not Work | B = Buggy
You certainly have met the "unique" goal! This server is very unique and different making it awesome! The class system, regen ore mine, recipe changes, and quests make a big splash in my mind as awesome! I am excited for this alpha release! Amazing work and it shows. I will keep my eye on this for sure!
YouTube | Twitter | Patreon
Bookmarked. Keep up the good work! Looking forward to this!
i should be able to enter alpha by the end of the week
i have not decided on adding the class's in, i want to change the mod/plugins im using currently to something else that will be alot better in the end
the mines below midgar are cool i had intended on setting them up to randomly change to different ores
& setup a tier system but the mod devs arnt taking my bug finding or suggestions seriously so idk what todo
creating the mines are SUCH A PAIN IN THE ASS, they eat up most of my time because they must be made manually due to NBT data, i cant use any kind of mod/plugin or world editor to make or manipulate them, it sucks so much
i spent 4 hours working on S1 mines and i havent even put a dent into it...fml
its also hard being the only dedicated member. ive poured my heart and soul into this project. i find myself losing interest at times,
wakkys net is not stable so he cant really help much atm
ive been playing & Streaming ALOT D2 LOD Eastern Sun Mod, im trying to break away from that and get back to working on the project
Thank you Hero for all your input & support, it means alot. i cant wait to play with a copy of Materiacraft
Thank you Magic, i hope to see you on the server soon!
i am currently streaming il prob stream most of today as long as it doesn't get laggy for me
il mostly be building the mines so you can see the undercity of S1
--------------------Edit 2 --------------------
i was streaming for a solid 2 hours but i dont think building mines
is all that interesting, however il stream some better stuff later
tonight for anyone that is interested
--------------------Edit 3--------------------
wakky successfully was able to compile 1 of the mods we were looking
to use for our class's, in its current state it is extremely unstable
however this is given me a huge change to study & work with the mod
instead of waiting for a official release
however if i make this switch i will have to remove the weather & colored lights mods
this is a hard choice to make because both of these mods are extremely important or the feel of realism i am aiming for
i prob wont stream anymore today
after playing with Archimedes Ships Plus & testing some things i was worried about i broke the world file, i have a backup from 2 days ago so this is setback but it could be alot worse
It really is a huge bummer when that happens. Lesson learned and this is the true test of dedicated server owners! Hang in there man!
I advise buying yourself an ice-cream. That always cheers me up! Haha.
YouTube | Twitter | Patreon
well long story short this has cost me
- 2 days of progress
- 6 days of my time to fix the errors/bugs because i had to rebuild the modpack from scratch
Trust me I know the headache of building a modpack. I made one for 1.6.4 with 140+ mods. It can literally take 40+hrs of in game and config work. But if you are doing what you enjoy, stick with it. I think it will pay off in the end. But if it doesn't, you have to ask yourself the question, "Did I have fun learning and doing this project?" If that is a, yes, then you lost nothing. It's about enjoying the journey - everything else is bonus. That's how I look at it anyway.

hey everyone wanted to give you a status update
the last few days have been trying to get a few mod devs to co-op with me, its been really stressful, things were not going the way i had intended.
angry, frustrated & not knowing what todo Hero sent me a msg & said some really great things to me,
later i ran into my partner where we talked about how we were going to handle the issue, i had done some research and gave him a lead, a few hours later a new mod was born,
were replacing the mines under midgar with something a little different, were calling it rubble, as of right now when you mine the rubble, it has a chance to drop the following cobble is highest chance while emerald is the lowest chance,
cobblestone
lapis nugget
Tin nugget
Iron nugget
Copper nugget
Bronze nugget
Silver nugget
Gold nugget
Quartz nugget
Diamond nugget
Platinum nugget
Emerald nugget
right now we have only added the nuggets but were going to add things like ingots and blocks,
its also saving me ALOT of time, a small mine could take me up to 30 mins to finish however with this change i can do them in 5 or less
i cant even begin to explain how excited i am, il take some screen shots later when we have an official texture
before i go, i want to say thank you to
Hero for your words yesterday, it all ment alot to me.
WAKKY YOU ARE THE BEST, those massive claws could rip right through a tank
Sneak peak at the player client =p
It brings back so many good memories! It looks great! I have one suggestion. Change the buttons to match the FFVII in-game toggles if you want a more ascetically similar looking affect to the old FF game. I'm guessing you can't use the old logo tho right? Maybe copyright issues? (see link) http://gyazo.com/b46e51db77b90407e8d865c3ad34cbc7
But overall it looks amazing for an alpha! Great work! I'm excited!
YouTube | Twitter | Patreon
I'm happy to hear I could encourage this project! I am also glad to hear that a new mod was born! I like the "rubble" mod idea! Where there's a will there's a way! Don't ever let an obstacle stand in your way for the goals you want to achieve, my friend!
YouTube | Twitter | Patreon
xD
i havent attempted to use the old buttions, il give it a try but i cant seem to find a render that i like/can work with but thats why i love photoshop
as for the logo & copyrights im not really sure, however i could argue it falls under fair use.
i would need todo more research in
(1) copyrightability of the underlying source work;
(2) the derivative work right;
(3) fair use.
im really worried about a cease and desist if anything, however these are my arguments
- we do not deprive the owner of the source material of income
- we work as free advertisement and promotion of the original source material
- we are non-profit.
square enix shutdown a FFVII web series in 2013 [they were asking for money on kickstarter]
however i see a few fan made FFVII games that have not been issued a takedown. [not asking for money]
if they come after me , id counter them with "not until i see a squeal to Legend Of The Seven Stars"
i seriously love that game.... but i really dont know what id do. laws get weird when you cross country's
my goal was to be well known throughout the FFVII networks including square enix, however i dont want it to be negative
i do know that the midgar map i have was created by AEGIS GAMING in blender, AEGIS owns the model so square enix cant make me change the map
New Client =3
wakky hard at work, new item
https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B0gI9GQSufIRSXdiQkxmTGNSNlk/view
well sector 1 mines have officially been finished ive included a few pictures, the first one is from world edit, you can see more in then in the other pics
PLEASE note this texture is not ours our final this was to quickly identify any blocks that needed to be replaced it will most likely have the cobblestone picture with some alternative looks
PLEASE note this texture is not ours our final this was to quickly
identify any blocks that needed to be replaced it will most likely have
the cobblestone picture with some alternative looks
New Custom grass that will world gen around the place making it look awesome
hey guys just wanted to let everyone know we have been hard at work
sectors 1-3 mines/rubble piles are finished im currently working on S4 right now
ive spent 33 hours by myself replacing blocks, my wrist is killing me but i plan on finishing S4 today if not S5
alpha is prob only a week or 2 away now, it really will depend on how quickly the mines are finished as well as the major buildings
wakky has found alot of usefull code, we do think that we will be able to asign class skins, so all mages will look like mages,
this means that your normal skin you use will NOT be avail on our server, we want everyone to know what they are fighting
theirs alot of other stuff id like to write but ive spent too much time typing & not enough breaking/replacing blocks
