That... is amazing, what mod is the tank that holds the liquid from, is that from xycraft? Or some other mod that i'm not yet familiar with, because it looks awesome!
Liquid dyes? Hmm. Will we be able to turn them into vanilla dyes? Or will other mods be able to use these in place of vanilla dyes? Because that would be awesome!
Plus, pretty.
They will will be able to be put into place of the vanilla dyes in recipes. If you know of the oredictionary, it works like that.
Does that mean that gauntlets and energy and the engineering table are not in the release?
I'm really looking forward to seeing those in my own minecraft .
The blocks are SO COOL!
Gauntlets, energy, and the engineering table will NOT be in the release. They will be out when they are ready.
Hey guys, Andrew2448 here (PR man and beta tester ) Its been a while since we have checked our the forums here so im going to answer some questions and give some spoilers at the end of this post.
Hello. I was wondering if once the mod (Or at least the Core and Worldgeneration) if I could test this on my Modpack that will be a hosted server soon. I currently have almost all the Mods that Direwolf20 has and a few more. I have already made the server-side files and the client. I also have an installer.jar that will safely and easily install the mods. This pack is 1.3.2 and I was wondering if you could hand me the Xycraft files to test on server and also on single player. Please Message me with any problems/issues. Thanks
i hope we get an ore release by the time the FTB pack comes out, Gotta have this one my server. Well, I could always use mystcraft.....
Looks freaking AMAZING!!!
Hello, I understand that it takes time to produce your mod, and I am in no way suggesting you should hurry, or compromise quality. However, I would like to incorporate this mod into my server. The issue is that I would like to run the server now, I am however, forced to wait for your world generation to be out so that my chunks are up to date.
Would you be at all willing to just release a preliminary mod that will just prime worlds for the generation? The ores don't need to do anything, or even need textures. Thanks, I am looking forward to your mod regardless.
Again, very soon now! Also please note that when released, you are not allowed to distribute the mod yourself to your server players, they must go download the mod itself. No packs!
Soaryn, i was wondering how your 19 liquids are coming along? I also have a few questions about them, what would they be used for and will they look amazing like all of your other blocks?
Done... see below
And now the spoilers:
First off: 19 new liquids . 16 of which are liquid dyes, which will essentially eventually be renewable dyes. No more flower searching. The other three are nitrogen, liquid nitrogen, and primer. Primer will eventually be used in the creation of said liquids:
Also, here is everything that SHOULD be in the first release coming soon (Structures come from the liquid dyes):
I'll try to check this thread quite often for the next couple of days so if you have any questions, ask away!
Watched Ep. 11 of Direwolf20's Season 3 server LP where you two were discussing the ways to work with corn.
Wouldn't it make more sense to craft corn into seeds (since the kernels are the seeds) and then smelting corn in the furnace gets you cooked corn, and cooking the seeds gets you popcorn? Of course, you could cook the corn in a cauldron to get cooked corn (right click on a cauldron with a corn ear?), then you could use the furnace to get popcorn.
And just so you don't think I am only here to pick nits, I do want to say that I really like where you are going with Xycraft, looks excellent so far.
why are these power nets "blue" and "red" ? i mean, this is purely aesthetical purpose?
if no:
why? *-*
if yes:
the machines can detect (with some upgrade or the base one) the color of the nets?
can this color affect items?
can be used for make this suggestion alive?
The different colors represent the amount of power going through. Blues are low voltage, purples are medium voltage, reds are high voltage. When you connect different types of voltages together, you get the color blending that you can see in that picture.
Do you have a list with the features already implemented?

- About 10-15 planned machines
For people who follow the live streams: do you know what exactly the goal is with these energy nets/power systems? They look neat and all, but I still have no clue what they're supposed to accomplish other than being nice and shiny. The only use I've been able to see is for mob/player traps since I managed to see parts of a video that had that. But otherwise everything I've seen is just throwing down those orbs and connecting them without any real idea of how power is typically supposed to be supplied and for what purpose (they were using a debug tool to power the orbs from what I saw).
I can't follow any audio commentary, so if things were explained verbally, some tidbits on the mechanics of the mod would be appreciated.
There are currently 10-15 machines in progress that will use the power/supply the power from the power network. Just wait and see
Hey, I have a idea for a armor system, allow us to make a base suit (no special property's) then allow us to "install upgrades" to it, so that I can (for example) use a industrialcraft jetpack, redmatter boots, a void ingot chest plate, and a xycraft leggings with a faster running modgule, and a extra energy storage modgule.
Hello there, Soaryn.
I am a quite good coder, and would like to join you in developement of XyCraft!
I was bored lately, and i didn't have ideas to implement in minecraft....
I can do lots of cool things, like GUI's, 3D rendering, good, expandable APIs, different crafting systems and NPCs!
And i made an .obj loader for minecraft! It can load .obj models from resources folder, and render them.
From looking at the spoilers, all I have to say is HOLY COW ! This is looking epic, but I have a question. Will all these HD textures and visual effects create lag on lower-end machines? And could I compare this to a tech-version of Thaumcraft?
Keep up the good work!
There will be no lag for any machines are these are very optimized. Don't worry
Hi,
Sorayn I'm currently working on a website and forum for your mod and would like your permission to continue.
If you would like me to I would be happy to host and design the website just no buy the domain.
Please email me at [email protected] with a reply.
Many thanks
big fan

We already have a wiki that we are in the process of writing and have no need for a website. We appreciate your enthusiasm but we will have to deny this oppurtunity.
I cant wait to see this mod I love tech mods especially ones adding in multiblock structures (atleast I think you got some multiblocks going up from the example). Can you elaborate more on the engineer table it has an awesome model but I kinda dislike the name mainly cause engineering table doesnt mean too much, engineers mostly use drafting tables or black/white/glass boards (or computers lmao).
*Edit* Also what server is your irc on you just said #xycraft on the wiki the server info is needed. I may jump on for a bit later

They are a part of the machines module.
It will not be out for 1.4.2.

The tanks are from Railcraft (http://railcraft.wikispaces.com/Iron Tank (Device) and http://railcraft.wikispaces.com/Download (Info))
They will will be able to be put into place of the vanilla dyes in recipes. If you know of the oredictionary, it works like that.
Gauntlets, energy, and the engineering table will NOT be in the release. They will be out when they are ready.

When released, no modpacks will be allowed except for the FTB pack (http://www.feed-the-beast.com/) Sorry!

Already done.
Currently Soaryn does not need any new coders but we will keep you in mind if he ever does.
