New Ultimate Base(My Project Thread)

[Djharts]

Update Incoming!

Top view of the fort type thing. I like the the wood but i'm not sure about what to do for a roof. I tried stone bricks and it was really bad. Way too much grey coloring. Any ideas?

Front view of the base.

I think stone half slabs would look nice if you do each one of the towers in a cone shape.

 

[Djharts]

Do you mean something like this? Not sure how I feel about it. Still seems like there's too much grey.

 

[fergcraft]

not quite go up a level every block so it wouldn't be so tall. like your making stairs with them

edit: found an image can't quite see it but it gives the Idea

 

[Djharts]

ok. So use the actual half slabs. Not the full blocks. Also, it looks like you were having a problem with skeletons that day. lol

 

[fergcraft]

LOL ya it was on a server that I played on that died and someone as afking so I had to sit in my house all night.

the generator is supplying the furnace directly, the batboxes otput is the dot, wrench it around.

Wouldn't be having this problem if IC2 and other mods used TE interface. :3

Because it sticks to using a mechanic that makes people confused and gets in the way.

I don't really think "3 dots=output" is that confusing of a mechanic

It is extremely confusing with certain texture packs.

Not only that many people have made the same mistake with IC2 but this is not the place for this discussion

Thanks for the suggestions. Sadly I'm too lazy for a manual tree farm and I I like to plan ahead so I would like to avoid anything that will need to be re-worked in the near future. As for my base i'm thinking of doing a cool fort. Maybe not a castle per say but a fort of some kind would be cool. I have the beginnings of it layer out already and will be posting pictures soon.

MultiBlock farms are not too bad, you just needapatite and a bit of copper and tin!

That house looks good as it is

good god your texture pack is horrible >.<

 

[Djharts]

Not gonna start a discussion about IC2 here. Since when did IC2 become so polarizing? I thought it was GT everyone hated blindly? Now we're bashing the god of tech mods? Come on people...

Not really IC2's fault..

With Sphax I get really confused, especially since they change how it looks every update.

Easy fix, don't use Sphax, it looks like shit.

Or just don't use texture packs at all

when you're using an ever evolving modpack, it's kinda hard to use a texture pack. Although I suppose with the 1.5 update textures all go into their seperate files, so if your TP doesn't cover a certain mod, it's textures will be default rather than purple square
