    I am proud to present you very rare thing, based on my decision to keep most of it for machinima.
    First ever showcase of offensive/defensive E.R.A.M. force. Keep in mind its still early WIP.
    There are few facts which are not clear from vid so i am going right on them.
     
    • Obviously i was heavily inspired by Oblivion(2013).
    • Main idea was to create drone with pop-up weapons as small as possible with external hull.
    • Even that my main weapons are clearly aesthetic there is still space to put something else there. 2 blocks of space on each side directly controlled by redstone rods.
    • Drone can rotate thanks to pistronics advanced rotator however as i had not enough space you can only turn it 1 way around. Of course we are speaking about wireless control rotation as you can manually switch rotation directly anytime.
    • Slopes will get messed up if you rotate drone but it may be fixed in future versions of pistronics.
    • Drone can move in any direction thanks to Remain in Motion template carriage and computer controller. Which is hooked with CC turtle.
    • Internal logic is done by RedNet cables from MFR.
    • Searchlights are actually Greg's RS floodlights.
    • MFFS forcefield will be charged at drone station automatically.
    • Thrusters are only aesthetic.
    • Mood indicator is lamp without any practical purpose right now.
    • Front scanner is yet another laser. (aesthetic)
    • Teleporter is carriage translocator from RIM.
    • Drone will be controlled by CC program however dont expect any player-vs-drone fights. It will move and it will be able to get home.
    • I already made some changes to my drone after releasing this video.
    • This is middle-class drone. Not the biggest or smallest one.
    • Drone control station is already in production.
    • Video took me 4hours to record-edit-upload.
    • Great god look at it! <3
    Whats the biggest success of this build you ask? Well try to include everything i just listed in something smaller and still aesthetically pleasing. Common guys 5x5x6!

    First to purpose of this thread. I will no longer post any shots or reveal anything specific about E.R.A.M. lore or structures. Instead i will start to spam recruiting propaganda every second post.(or until i get banned) 90% of jobs are still free so until i get proper team you have to deal with it. No help = no (free) awesomeness from E.R.A.M. here.

    Project future stages:

    (click to enlarge)
    id3s27kD7edH5.jpg

    As you can see we plan to create machinima series instead of any media updates.
    Machinima has low to none priority right now however i do want to start recruiting team in advance. (if you look at my project history you can see that even 2 years is not enough to find proper help) This will be the only and official way to follow E.R.A.M. project until first official release of map. Main reason why i decided for machinima instead of: timelapse videos, server tours, shots, showcase vids, gifs... is that i can reveal what i want in order i decide. I can include description, backstory or related lore to each section by editing screenplay. Each part can be showed in specific conditions/situation to create perfect scene. Some areas will be described to deep functionality others will be only teased by passing by, fast look behind doors or skipped completely to include more content for in hand experience later. (including easter-eggs) There is already enough built to create 5-6 very interesting episodes but as i sad it has no priority to me right now. I do have some basic idea what it will be based on and story in my mind for first 2 episodes. Actually i am building part of E.R.A.M. map where will first season most likely end so filling "middle part" will be piece of cake. Machinima will include re-creations of some popular film/game scenes, lots of humour and reference to other MC communities. I hope that all together it will create unique experience of E.R.A.M., keep audience interested and set new higher level of modded minecraft project. I want E.R.A.M. to be something more then just file on your hard-drive.
     
    Machinima related recruitment:
    (all members will be promising to not share any informations or materials about upcoming episodes until it release)
    Voice actors: Obviously nice voice, good microphone, willingness to record given script and based on feedback adapt/record again (with application send your voice sample :) you can say whatever you want i will not share or post it anywhere)
    Note: I am also looking for at least 1 female voice
     
    Script writer: Creative, with perfect English, familiar with lot of films and games with understanding of script creations, common film plots/twists, and minecraft capabilities. He will be acquaint with map, lore, all my suggestions and basic idea for story. Close coop is necessary.
    Fan scene/script helper: Can suggest cool scenes, jokes, parts of script or inspirations.

    All video edit, effects, post processing, sounds, music, directing, in-game recordings, external rendering, NPC setup and final script will be done by me.
     
    Project building internal/external related recruitment:
    Designer (highly experienced and skilled in designing project related stuff)
    Lore writer (well educated in all inspiration films/games mentioned in first post, creative!, good knowledge of history, weapons, technology, conspiracy theories...)
    Voxel sniper, worldedit, other plugin expert (well skilled in any or all of these)
    Mod expert (will help with a specific mod thanks to his excellent knowledge of that mod)
    Hand-builder (will help build difficult parts by hand, i.e. microblocks/slopes/wires)
    Texture artist (will create or modify textures for blocks or skins)
    CT(connected textures) maker (as title sad, will create custom CT support for my TP)
    Sound artist (will create or modify sounds for my project)
    Mod-community/modpack specialist (will suggest updates, new mods and troubleshoot modpack)
    Idea genius (will suggest excellent ideas/features to make this project even cooler)

    Hello everyone. I'm masterzh's project partner. I would have posted this sooner, but I have been recovering from being hit by a car, and the complications that follow an accident like that. Good news, I'm not dead. So yay for that. Anyway, I don't post that much, but I've been on the forums since there were forums. I've had Minecraft since alpha, and the first mod I installed was the original IndustrialCraft. I've been in the modding community for a long time, and I can say I have never seen a project quite like this. My history aside, I look forward to getting to know everyone, and please feel free to send any questions or PMs my way.
    Big welcome to me new buddy. We will push this project to the new limits of minecraft modding universe.  Limits created and overcome by same people. Us. E.R.A.M. will have no competition creating and winning its own era of detailed, functional and massive builds with custom modpacks. Heil...viva E.R.A.M. !

    [1.6.4][SMP][Forge] Mad Science - Machines, items, and mobs to create your own laboratory!

    in Modders Metropolis

    Posted · Edited by masterzh

    @masterzh: Maxwolf is the programmer, Prowler does the artwork. We use this name so not one of us can take all the credit. Thanks for tracking us down, we are on IRC also on EsperNet if you want to come hang out there and talk to us individually. First let me say that modpack you are making looks absolutely incredible, you are welcome to add Mad Science to it if you wish. The type of theme and "toys" we plan on adding are right up your alley. We have plans for decorative items, special toggle switches and buttons that look like things from laboratories, more forms of power generation, more genetically alerted mobs both utility and silly, and much more as we come up with as we go along like the VoxBox.

     

    We started Mad Science back in January of this year so depending on when you looked at it could have been very early or a little later but we are still very new to the modding scene for Minecraft.

     

    Thanks for fast respond. Maybe you can add some way to contact you on your homepage and at least list mod-team.

    Hey Maxwolf, (if thats your correct nick as its pretty hard to find)
     
    Long time no post here from anybody except you so here i am. I will be honest i didnt play with your mod as it seemed to me not that interesting back few months ago. I guess i didnt dig "deep enough" or it was pretty early in development. ("Announcement System" sounds epic! When it get added? God, if this work as its described i will use it everywhere!)
     
    To the point: As you may/may not know i am owner of E.R.A.M. server/project and its only and main builder. E.R.A.M. is (Experimental Research Assembly Manufacture) corporation with really superior technology focused on lot of things including stuff like "experimenting on aliens" or "cloning". My modpack has already more then 150mods and i am seriously considering adding Mad Science.
     
    Here nice showcase video of my project with shiny shaders.
    My project homepage is here:
     
    My question is: what are future plans for Mad Science if there are any? I loved Evil Genius and i would like to see some similar "toys" in this mod.  Some more lab "furniture", "accessories", "traps" etc.
     
    Anyway, i will try this mod tomorrow and explore how much it have to offer. Btw excellent job on mod homepage. It looks amazing.

    So after 1 year i am giving you guys fast tour of almost whole project with some beautiful shaders in action.

     
    I hope no1 get sick of too much "fly-by"scenes, thats why i included warning about it.
     
    Please, before you  comment on laggy scenes and glitches in video remember, that all scenes were rendered with 150mods running, on "far" or even "extreme" view distance and on top of that with shaders. Try to record such madness  in 1080p.
     
    Enjoy and dont forget to watch in 1080p
    Post some feedback!

    As far as feedback:

    PRO:

            I've always been a fan of the "sterile" look, and you pull it off admirably.

    CON:

            My appreciation for this project is dampened by the fact that you seem to have forgotten the less ineresting parts (offices, the brig)

    ROFL ... thread name "Random Things you drew/shopped/made/etc." but whatever.

     

    About your CON comment... i didnt forget. Check to-do list its all there. I cant build everything simultaneously.

    Expect pm today evening with config files.

    For everyone interested in modpack i have a deal for you guys. I thought about it and come to final decision. It took me a lot of time and work to put it together so here is the deal.

     
    First dont spam this thread with requests and contact me via pm ONLY AFTER you fulfilled all terms below.
    • Share and promote my project in some way, website/forum/facebook/community or tell about it to your friends. (which may not be able to help me but can know other "friends"... you know how it goes) Simply sad: Show some effort to help me find mostly project partner or any other help stated in first post. I dont require any super evidence but make sure to list your effort if its possible.
    • Write both positive and negative feedback directly RELATED to this project.
     
    Thats all. If you think its too much to ask go ahead and build such pack for yourself.
     
    What will you get:

     

    • Config folder with screenshot of all mod versions from mod directory. If you ask i can provide you with some server side help.
    • For those which will put a lot more effort to promote my project or their work will result in fast hiring of new member will get access to zip with whole instance including all mods and advanced help from me. (+ some credits in first post if they agree)
     
    Config files for... IMPORTANT!:
    I have to warn you that config files/mods i use right now are set for building my project and i didnt test any survival possible issues. There are a lot of bugs still present in 1.6.x mod releases and will not get fixed as authors of mods moved to 1.7.x . Also my map was generated with 1 mod no longer present in modpack so i have no idea about terrain problems in current used pack. This modpack is not stable at all and i am not responsible for corrupted worlds you may find yourself in. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK.
