So, I built a mock-up in creative for the bridge that I will be building from Chicken Tower to the desert area directly south of Chicken Tower. Please let me know your thoughts. It will be two levels, one for each direction of traffic. Detector rails will be used to power the powered rails in order to enforce traffic direction. Balloons will be used to lift the bridge above water. The bridge will be made of wood so it's light enough for the balloons to carry. Pen, I was thinking you could build the balloons however and where ever you want. Maybe space them out every 50-100 blocks or so. And make it so that some are attached to one side of the bridge, and some are attached to the other. And make them float at different heights for some variation.
Just wrote all the chat I had from the meeting on the pad: https://piratenpad.de/p/emc-last-light-outpost So whoever didn't attend, please feel free to read it. It took awhile to type this exactly how people said it…*fingers tired*
Wow! Thanks! This must have taken some time and also is exactly the kind of thing the pad can be useful.
I read through the chatlog and really really like the idea of a megabridge held up by airballoons. Also for future meetings maybe this mod can be helpful: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1608408-174-chatlog-now-with-a-669-shorter-title/
I honestly thought this was a creeper head when it was up on the podium, like, 30 seconds before this. And then it moved.
and the dirt was because we had 2 creepers come and ambush me… >_> sorry about that, didn't have birch on me to fix it.
Haha no problem. I'm having second thoughts about the bridge design. It's just too complicated. And you will only be able to see the balloons when traveling in one direction. My new design is simpler. It looks a lot more "light weight". Plus, no lighting is needed, since mobs can't spawn on rails or fences, which allows the balloons to stand out more at night. Thoughts?
Oh and pen, I added your name to the locked chests on the bottom floor of the Chicken Tower. They have wool and wood.
Found some Chunky Renders on the site, and I wondered "Why doesn't anyone do these renders anymore?!"
Um....... (Psst! The house is available if you want to live in it!) Also, check out my LLO render page: https://sites.google.com/site/emclastlightoutpost/pictures/sunny_chicken (Doesn't show up on the Navigation bar though).
I changed that. It does show up now but for some reason the picasa slideshow of the renders does not show up. Is the album public?
