Ok, quite a few things i’m going to tell here:
1. Regarding developement progress
It was intended to create a SMP version and THEN port the mod to 1.8
However, in my (still running) absence (damn, spelling?) the coders fired up and created a 1.8.1 SMP version off the batch. Kinda amused by the fact they will additionally need to port it to 1.9 now, though :3 (that’s why i wanted full SMP first, because i assumed 1.9 would arrive before we get that finished).
However, progress IS being made. More and more SMP bugs get fixed (after certain people *coughkbcough* caused various crashes on the testserver), we got a whole new Sound-System replacing Audiomod and just moooooaaaaarrrr…
2. Personal Progress
Software Course is running well and will finally be over on Friday o.o Damn, it sucks to get up at 6am FOR WHOLE TWO WEEKS :O
3. Regarding Yogscast
Dunno how many of you noticed, but Yogscast explicitely promoted a non-legit modpack including IC² in one of their latest YT videos. There’s a forum thread in this regard in the IC² forum, check it out if you want to have more detailed news. I’ve contacted the Yogspire-website in this regard, the only answer i’ve got is “The Support adress for Yogiverse is solely for site-related issues.” … Anyone got some contact details on lewis?
4. WhoTMFGDamnHellOfIndustrializedPiecesOfScrap donated FIFTY Euro?! It kinda doubled the whole amount of donations we received for IC².
Many thanks mate, such support is well appriciated. Though i’m really stunned by somebody actually donating 4 times the worth of the game a mod was written for. Sure, appreciating tokens for modders are nice, but 50 is just like a REEEEEEAAAAAAALLY big token…
Either ways, many thanks ^^
As well, thanks @ everyone supporting me, the IC² team and the mod itself. The happy faces of a community are always the best motivation :3
FIRST (maybe!)
And yesh ! We got news !
But still, we never heard of the SMP version before, or maybe it’s just me.
Is the SMP is out for 1.8.1 ? Cause if yes, I assume the SSP is too…
Anyway, it would be great if we could get the link for it, if disponible.
Thx ^^ Good luck !
It’s in closed beta currently. You don’t exactly want to play that current version before it’s fully debugged, either way. Seriously, stuff like placing a fence can kill servers :O
It’s really cool to see things are coming along well.
For what it’s worth, I get more excited about IC2 updates than actual minecraft updates so it was pretty exciting to see there’s a lot of progress being made on 1.8.1 SMP.
Awesome work!
As a software graduate myself, I feel your pain. Early mornings are a killer. I’m glad you’ve got your priorities straight, though. I’d hate to see you fail your course because of the whiners looking to get IC² updated a couple of weeks sooner.
Best of luck to you if there’s an exam at the end.
Luckyly not. It’s a preparation course for the real software project, which will run across the whole semester.
The pre-course is a must though and one could even fail it (forcing the group to repeat the course.. or wait 1 year (if they fail the repeat as well)).
Imma take a guess and say the new sound system is MATMOS? Anyways, Yay…SMP progress! Can’t wait. Get up at 6am? It’s not that bad is it? I’ve you’ve been going to school, then you’ve been getting up pretty damn early for 12 years.
Uhm, no.
It’s self-written.
+ We get everything we need
– It’s buggy as hell, as every major new-system is
my high school starts at 9am, earliest school started for me was 8:35am
Did you try yogscast@gmail.com. That is listed as their fan address. Not sure if this is the only you already used.
Je, after bugging them more the yogpire admin told me to look for an adress in the channel… googling resulted in that one. Apparently you can find it easier by looking for yogscast, not for the lewis guy’s username >.>
I, for one, is having a lot of fun with IC2, playing around with the new reactor system, that will probably give some hours of fun, if not weeks. 😛
Hail the Dragon Lord.
Thanks so much for the update happy to hear the classes are coming along well. You the best mod maker in the business hands down and I am happy to wait for great!
Thanks again man.
