FC Forums

Hi Frost!

How's copernicus going? Apparently I'm not allowed to PM on this forum so I figured I would post and see how everything is going I thought the mod had died, but it turned out I didn't know about the new forum!

H, blakmajik!
Yeah, it didn't die, but it's not progressing as gloriously as it was in the golden days of my unemployment. I'm working on that, though.


(For the folks who don't know, blakmajik is the creator of the Zeppelin mod)

Well then.

Wait? Blakmajic is alive?

lol welcome , how come you can't PM ?

Now frost has a good reason to release a new freaking video already, he needs to show off in front of his fellow modders .

I'm busy dammit!

Unless you want me to start making videos of my work stuff, like my sweet SQL sync agent, you're gonna have to wait till I can get that squared away. Also, I am not actually making a video about my SQL sync agent, so don't ask.
On the plus side, though, there are a lot of parallels with the IT portions of FC, so that is fewer things to research later on. Especially since we are down a database admin.

He's a new member. It turns on once he's got five posts or whatever it is.

Hello there, just your resident overlord.
Fr0stbyte, have you ever donsidered crowd-sourced funding for Futurecraft, then realising it as a proper game?

Can he make such game alone ? Or do you know coding well enough to make it with him on a commercial level ? I think this better stay a mod ...

Hello, blackmajik!
Please come in and enjoy your stay.
It´s either going to be a good one-or a very short one.

Black, welcome to te community! (Join the dev team, they could use your experience as far as coding goes.)

But we're not converting blocks to entities. FC isn't going to work like Zeppelin.

Ah. I will edit.

Glad to see you're still working on it Lack of time is a constant problem though, I feel your pain...

Thanks! I can try if fr0st has anything he needs help with. But while I know a lot about much of the Minecraft internals, the rendering engine is not a big part of that knowledge Although I did like that article on the different meshing, the greedy meshing was similar to an idea I had on my list for Zeppelin to try and speed up things (except it was for entity merging, not rendering meshes). How many devs do you have on the project now?

One, I believe.
