Twas typed on an iPhone, but if you have any constructive feedback let me know.

Ok, I've finished the fighter I posted earlier in the thread, and I have sorted out its crafting recipe, I have also got a hover tank which is 90% modelled

But I want to go one step further, make FC related parts to build planes out of, because propellers and four stroke internal combustion engines are a bit old hat

However I don't know what parts would be appropriate, so far I've conjured up an ion thruster component and some fancy titanium wings.

Does anyone have any better ideas?

Flan news

http://minecraft-smp.de/news.php

Manus copies all of the facebook posts flan makes on updates and puts them on there. This mod will have organized teams, and will work much better than just running around a normal SMP server with guns.

Mod will be released tomorrow or Christmas day.

i have a weapons pack waiting for the new release, whether i'll get the vehicles done (adding my fighter and burnttoasters gunship) is uncertain though.

currently in the pack:
laser pistol and energy cell
laser rifle and rifle clip
laser sniper and sniper cell
laser MG (mountable) and MG cell

when flan updates i'll put a download link up, this one will actually work (the pack, not the link)

Update: upon adding them to actual minecraft (not just MCP) I have discovered massive flaws in both mine and burnt toasters models.

Can't even make the java file for toasters gunship, techne crashes when I try to export, plus indon have the textures.
My fighter works with the java, but I have discovered the the model you see in techne is pretty much nothing like what renders in minecraft, in other works, a buch or weird shaped bricks in places they aren't supposed to be.

Back to the drawing board, need to work out what's wrong with the models, and make new ones.

Flan's mod is coming out today.

"Hey, would you look at that? A score screen.

Multiplayer testing has begun and there are many bugs to be quashed tomorrow morning, but fear not, for quashed they shall be! I plan to release the mod tomorrow (Christmas Eve GMT) so make sure to keep watching this page!

(The mod thread will also update, but Facebook fans will get the mod first)

"Christmas Eve GMT" I meant that it will come out at some point during Christmas Eve, not at the start of Christmas Eve, so calm down and wait a few more hours."



He lives in the UK I think, so he is many hours ahead of Americans which will mean it will be released earlier.

Awesome, i'll release version 0.2 of the FC content pack as soon as I can confirm it works with the new update of flans mod.

Also I've got a model underway that renders well in game, expect a fully functional star fighter by the end of the week.

Plus I'm working on a mountable micro MAC for the fighters

Awesome prototype, now, is anyone else doing anything?

I honestly doubt it, in terms of modelling stuff, only a few attempts have been made, they looked awesome in techne, but rendered as misshapen blobs in MCP. We would be better off building it through the java file instead of techne, manus's shape calculator is the best thing there is for that.

My advice for anyone looking to make models, as you build it, keep using MCP o render it in minecraft, to make sure everything is where it is meant to be.

In more positive news, I finished the mini MAC, but I can't call it that because I will get sued by apple, but it won't be craftable due to it being very OP

How do you expect to get it, then?

TMI creative mode, spawned in by admin ect.

meant to be the admin cannon, but is best mounted on a plane

speaking of planes


it ain't much, but it is a massive breakthrough.

I can also model shapes other than boxes, but its a bigger to do and takes ages to get it right.

Speaking of major breakthroughs:

Cooleo!
