LegoCraft FTB
Hello people of the FTB Fourms. I have, for a long time, been planning to create a FTB Server. I originally had a Mindcrack Server for only me and my friends and that world was corrupted. Later I got into FTB again and created another private server which didn't go anywhere. Recently I have wanted to create another public one, but I have been also playing on another Mindcrack server to get ideas. On this thread I will be posting updates, holding contests, and possibly other things. I am planning to have the server by, at latest, October.
So my first question I was originally going to ask is: what modpack should I be running it on? For a long time, I have been thinking Mindcrack like my older servers. But, after seeing FTB Ultimate and it's cool mods like AE and MFR, I think that's what I'm going to do. The reason I'm not gonna do it on a newer modpack like Unleashed is I really like red power (which is lacking a 1.5 update).
Ok, since I have decided on Ultimate, I want to release my first contest: building a spawn building. I am not good at big, detailed buildings, so I have decided to let you make it.
Remember: It has to be on the latest version of the Ultimate pack, it should be pretty big and very detailed (using redpower microblocks), and most importantly, NO XYCRAFT BLOCKS. The reason for this is I MIGHT disable it if it is causing lag problems. And if I disable xycraft and spawn is made out of xycraft blocks, lets just say that spawn will have holes in it.
A few more rules: It should be made based off of odd numbers, it should also be symmetrical. I also want you to spawn facing a blank wall measuring 21 wide by 4 tall (room for information panels). If you turn around from there, you should see a big opening going outside. The ceiling should be pretty high, and there should be a flat wall measuring 9 high by 75 wide, about half way in between the ceiling and the top of the door. (I want this wall to be completely visible if you turn around, so the wall with the door will probably need to be about 30 or so blocks away from the block you spawn on.
Also, you ARE allowed to use creative mode and WorldEdit.
Post links to your entry world file, I will look at all of them and decide my favorite. If it does not meet the rules, I will tell you and tell you why. The winner will get his name posted in the spawn building, and will gets lots of awesome in-game prizes when the server opens.
All entries must be in by the first of September.
Have fun building!
