[VG][Minecraft] Server with mods: BuildCraft Redpower IndustrialCraft

[MichaelEvans]

I'm currently leaning towards opening a Minecraft server that I had been running just to share a world with a friend and explore the possibilities that mods like RedPower2 and IndustrialCraft2 would add to the game.  It would probably be limited but the precise number of slots would depend on how well it fit inside the allowed memory.

Non-optional mods are RedPower2 ( http://www.eloraam.com/ ) and IndustrialCraft2 ( http://wiki.industrial-craft.net/index.php?title=Main_Page / http://www.industrial-craft.net/ ).

I'm considering adding buildcraft back in for the automated crafting tables, but it would take some minor convincing for me to turn on world-gen features for it (creating oil, which diminishes other resources).

If you have addons for mods you'd like to request please let me know.  By default the only extra addons I play with are the 100% wrench rate and reactor thermometer addons for IC2.

Edit:

Since IC2 1.64 came out the 100% wrench rate addon is now obsolete.  I'm still hoping for a reactor thermometer update, and fixes to some SMP crop issues.  However now the server is online with the following:

BuildCraft 2.2.12 (all; with world features (oil) enabled)
IndustrialCraft 1.64
RedPower 2.0pr4d (all; with world features (Lots of fun stuff) enabled)

If you want to access the server at kcmine.mproj.net please PM me your minecraft name so I can add that to the whitelist (list of allowed users).  If you are having trouble installing the mods please PM me for a little assistance.  It's currently a little harder than usual to get things worked out, so you'll probably need some assistance.

Edit again:
Instructional videos about getting started in IC2.

Make a backup of your .minecraft folder.

How to mod:

(or find a video on youtube that explains it.  Effectively you take the files from the .zip archives and copy them right in to your bin / minecraft.jar .)

Goes in to minecraft.jar in this order:

You'll also need the client block IDs I happen to be using, but I'll provide a link to those later. (you would still need to be added to the whitelist anyway)

Bumping with a lets play series explaining various mods and how they can be used.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BE0u2XxBo_g  Is the start of the more recent Lets Play set for this user http://www.youtube.com/user/ShadwDrgn (Using this link the newer vids are on top; using the minecraft playlist they're on the bottom).


However, the Lets Play author doesn't seem to know about the redstone operation trick, and thus

I've decided that I'll make it properly public when the next IC2 release occurs.

At that time it will have IC2 + RP2 + BC2's latest versions.

Until I update the server with IC2's next release these are the mods that I'm using if you would like to request I add you to the whitelist and allow you to connect to kcmine.mproj.net.

mod_ModLoaderMp 1.0.0
mod_RedPower(all) 2.0pr4b
mod_IC2 v1.43
mod_IC2Thermometer v1.18b

PS: As I don't normally use BC I don't have much knowledge or preference for energy conversion plugins.  If you'd like to suggest one, or another plugin/mod for consideration, please reply with it.

Hey MichaelEvans if you'd ever be interested in creating a Minecraft world, having seen my fair share, I'd love to help and if it's okay become a mod in it. Granted I don't know all that much about computers, but if you create the world I'll happily sign up and become part of it. it would be nice to have a multi=player Minecraft Server i could go to.

At this time I'm not looking for extra mods, since it will be whitelist only and thus I don't expect much need for moderation.

I would however like to point out that some play-testing of the IC2 for Minecraft 1.1 got released ( http://youtu.be/vGUsxGrqmZM ) and that it seems we will get access to the new version later this week.  http://www.industrial-craft.net/?p=322#comments


Also, I hope the power stays on this time x.x  Finally about to get a good night's sleep;

This evening, after work, I'll be trying to get this running properly.  Right now there's an issue with the version of ModLoaderMP that I downloaded.  There also was an issue with RP2 and BC2 colliding on IDs for block 150 last time; though I've yet to even reach that stage this time.

Until then, you might want to download RP2 PR4d, BC 2.2.12 and IC2 1.62

It will be a little while before the IC2 reactor thermometer mod is updated, but you can look up how to run mods under your OS.  Oh also, PM me with, or reply with, your minecraft username so I can add you to the whitelist for the server.
