What's that in UTC?

Mr. Analog · January 01, 2013, 08:02:21 AM

I'm in!

I'll set up recording too.

In UTC? Not sure, we are GMT -7 though I think.

9pm MST Jan 1 is 4am UTC Jan 2: conversion. But I thought you were in Australia? There (well, Sydney), it'd be 3pm EDT Jan 2: conversion.

less than 30 minutes!

Thorin · January 01, 2013, 09:18:03 PM

So it looked good but didn't get recorded right so we're doing it again

Mr. A, hopefully you can post the video on here afterwards...

Sadly the hourly backups were part of that old fancy script I used to manage the mc server on a ram drive. So all we have is daily backups as of 8am ish.

Mr. Analog · January 01, 2013, 09:26:50 PM

...and the rest of the message is go into creative mode and spawn in the fireworks

Mr. Analog · January 01, 2013, 09:31:56 PM

Fraps is paid for and ready to rock by the way

Get your butts on the server again

QuoteBut I thought you were in Australia?

I am. I usually find it best to give times in UTC (GMT) though as that means anyone anywhere can easily convert it to their own time zone.

Spawning in the fireworks isn't that easy. There are too many colour combinations, so you have to spawn in the components and put them together. Here was my supply list: 574 gunpowder, 168 paper, 42 fire charge, 56 gold nugget, 28 feather, 35 glowstone dust, 14 diamond, 42 cactus green, 21 rose red, 49 dandelion yellow, 42 lapis lazuli, and 42 bonemeal. Originally I actually collected all that in SMP (well, some of the gunpowder came from other people). It took longer than you might imagine... Good thing I hoard everything so I had some of it already (mostly the colours).

Video is edited and currently uploading.

Apparently you can't do overlay titles in Windows Live Movie Maker without hacking, so I guess I'll look into getting Sony Vegas set up or something for future videos (I made a video title card for this I will edit it later)

Cheers!
