okamikk Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 This is really cool! I haven't seen many technic factories that look good as well! Really good job on this Soltaro you've done things with redpower microblocks I wouldn't ever be able to imagine. And then there's the machines, the machines! I can all those things but I never would of thought up a moving chest system that's so awesome! Again amazing work, I'm on holiday at the moment and you really make me want to go home and do something like that, I'm making an underwater city for my server spawn which looks alright but you can't do any crazy redpower stuff because of the water. I wanna go home now "crazy redpower stuff" is completely waterproof EDIT: penguin, DON'T double post, and try reading the [REDACTED] thread Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
elmarko98 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 "crazy redpower stuff" is completely waterproof EDIT: penguin, DON'T double post, and try reading the [REDACTED] thread It's not that there's just no space and if I do do a load of wiring it would look bad so yeah can't do "crazy redpower stuff" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soltaro Posted August 24, 2012 Author Share Posted August 24, 2012 ooh snap, can you post a download of that world? i want to see what you've done Hey Oka, I might make my own world available for download later on when I added some more 'projects'. I feel it's still too empty as of yet. I don't want to add something ugly/inefficient that I'll regret later on so it typically takes quite some planning beforehand whenever I decide to build something. I still need to do a powerplant and a high speed monorail system leading to other places away from Horizon. This is really cool! I haven't seen many technic factories that look good as well! Really good job on this Soltaro you've done things with redpower microblocks I wouldn't ever be able to imagine. Thanks Elmarko. Redpower is such a cool mod. (Big thanks to Eloraam!) It allows for so much more designing freedom. And then there's the machines, the machines! I can all those things but I never would of thought up a moving chest system that's so awesome! Of all the things in Horizon, I'd say the sorting/storage frame elevator is my favorite as well. Designing it was a bit tricky but a lot of fun. I mainly wanted to avoid having just a standard big "chest room". The other thing I originally considered was a storage warehouse further away with a "call on demand" system that involves chestcarts and lots of item (un)loaders. It would take up lots more space though, and since the Horizon facility is lifted into the air, you can't expand too far downwards. By the way, it is possible to add a 5th chest floor to the frame elevator. It's the main reason why the chest viewing area is lifted up some blocks otherwise the bottom would stick out the floor of the Machine room down below. I don't think I'll add that extra floor anymore though, as I'm quite content with the 4 main categories. (Building blocks/Gems & ores/Tech/Misc) I'm curious, has anyone already used the Misc category and added the items to the sorting machine? If so; which 6 sub-categories did you use? I have yet to do mine and am using the crystal overflow chest as my misc item so far. Again amazing work, I'm on holiday at the moment and you really make me want to go home and do something like that, I'm making an underwater city for my server spawn which looks alright but you can't do any crazy redpower stuff because of the water. I wanna go home now:( Yeah redpower blocks don't have correct water flow around them. But you can always do the inside of the building with microblocks! Post some screenshots of that underwater city when you can. I'm interested in seeing other designs for inspiration. I'll definitely build 'something' underwater at some point but I haven't figured out what. Future project It will probably involve some modular force fields as well.

elmarko98 Posted August 24, 2012 Share Posted August 24, 2012 Here's the underwater city, I've been building it in domes (discounting the factory) it's not much now but I've got plans to add sooo much more I hope your okay with me posting it on this thread Here's the spawn dome and the shopping center And's here's el's corp factory, the second floor is my redpower lab and the first is a massive machine room that mass produces nano armor and nukes there is also a redpower frame elevator with sliding doors which is my own design without any tutorials. It's not much but it's my early redpower creations so hopefully I can expand and make some awesome redpower machines I hope you like it I haven't used redpower microblocks for aesthetics yet but with a bit of decorating I think I can make it look alright EDIT: Lol fail I got them the wrong way round xD Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sayshal Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 @Soltaro You should add some other means of EU generation. Solar panels only work during the day... Kinda inconvenient for abusing the Insomnia mod to sleep but still have stuff working. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JZTech101 Posted August 26, 2012 Share Posted August 26, 2012 @Soltaro You should add some other means of EU generation. Solar panels only work during the day... Kinda inconvenient for abusing the Insomnia mod to sleep but still have stuff working. If you're talking about the fresh map, you clearly haven't seen the battery boxes there for redpower. Those battery boxes allow all of the bluelectric stuff to continue working. As for IC2, they are currrently running off of coal, which you'll have to supply down in the machine room. (Or do what I did and hook it all up to MFSUs and HV Solar Arrays.) If you're talking above what Soltaro did to his house, well when he added the solar panel and I am 99% sure he hooked it to a battery (MFSU, MFE or Batbox) to allow his stuff to run overnight.

I'm kind of a dumbass when it comes to this kinda thing (I learn from example). Is it at all possible for you to send me your worldsave so I can study off of what you've added to it? I'm just starting to touch on IC2/BC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My problem is the fact I have several mods installed upon technic pack. In order to use my map (based upon Project Horizon), you'll need all the additional mods installed.

Luke1215 Posted September 6, 2012 Share Posted September 6, 2012 Hey I have a problem: I download and put the world file in .techniclauncher/technicssp/saves/ folder but when i run technic it does not show up when I select singleplayer? Any ideas on what I need/should do? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LupusAlphaX Posted September 7, 2012 Share Posted September 7, 2012 Wow, this map looks awesome from what I've seen in screenshots, unfortunately though, I can't play because the file is a .rar and my laptop doesn't support WinRar (sounds stupid, I know). Could you possibly put up a .zip version for download? I'm also incredibly curious about what that coloured marble/sandstone block is... EDIT Derp, I bothered to read through the thread some more and found it. Lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LupusAlphaX Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Nope, turns out all I can use is the default archiving utility, so to use a .zip download would be be best. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
