Rival Rebels 1.5.1 Download


Rival Rebels version 1.5.1b 1.5.1a for Minecraft 1.5.1
 

Here is the 1.5.1 update, after waiting for Mojang to fix the performance / frame rate issues. Obviously, everybody else also waited, including the folks from MCP and Forge, cool dudes that I would like to thank for their great job, Lex Manos, CPW and all the MCP and the Forge community for their commitment to keep modders alive!

New gravity explosions!!

This has been a hard update to code, I've spent days and nights fixing tons of glitches (stuff that used to work fine). And even thought it's still not fully tested, I wanted to release the mod as soon as I could and Forge official release was out for download. Anyway you guys can help me out spotting more bugs and posting the findings on this page to correct them for the next version.



Nuke the Nether Army! Epic Dubstep





Note: For RR 1.5.1b I strongly recommend to use Forge Build 1.5.1-7.7.1.628 , other Forge versions after that point break the Tesla lighting arc render, and may provoque other nasty problems.

Here is the link to all Forge versions's list.

The new Loader 

Loader's fully opened drawer


New features on the update:

The Rocket has a new gravity Explosion System that practically demolishes any structure, making it collapse!!
The new explosion system is shared by the Timed bomb on a bigger size and the plastic explosives on a medium size.
Another addition is The LOADER,  (a chest replacement). A strong, big and modular container that will serve as a feeder for other machines on future updates.
Also new LANGUAGE SUPPORT for Spanish, Portuguese, Russian, Italian, German and Finnish . A really hard thing to implement, so please, feel free to let me know for better ways to translate items names or to correct typos or even if your language is not present on the mod but supported by Minecraft, please send me a list of the items translated in two columns so I can include it on next updates. (Thank you, Generator2142 for the Finnish translation!)
New textures for the Laptop and Reactor.
Tweaks to the Rod Disk, that now returns to the hot bar automatically after a few seconds, and when colliding on mid air it destroys other disks.
Plus a new hidden surprise...


The chicken is befuddled by the Loader

Changes:

- The reset block on the spawn dupes (duplicates) when the new explosion system blasts it, so after a lot of griefing the spawn becomes a mountain of resets blocks!
- Null pointer exception with Rod disks. This has already been fixed, and it will no longer happen in the next version.
- Two camo blocks have incorrect translations in Portugese (also fixed for next update)

Note: 1.5.1b changes are marked in orange

Porting Rival Rebels to 1.5

Hello Rival Rebels

Edit: download the 1.5.2 update in here

I'm very busy updating the mod, after procrastinating a little, which I actually never do, but I got overwhelmed when I realized the size of the endeavor. Trolljang (just echoing somebody in the forums) completely changed the whole texturing system. Lighting and a huge number of methods were made obsolete and replaced. Well, you are not interested on the details but probably you know that RR has A LOT of custom blocks, items & very special renders.
But the good news is that Rival Rebels is already running on 1.5, still lots of glitches to fix and fine tuning to go for, plus the extensive multiplayer testing that I always do after that. Hoping 1.5.1 doesn't change everything back... Minecraft 1.5 has lots of vanilla glitches, and I don't know about you but my FPS is down to half its normal rate, so I am extremely laggy and glitchy for now.

In another tone, this update is going to feature a brand new Explosion System. After remembering the infamous explosion bug while watching episode 37 of Minecraft Daily from SCMowns2 when they used what they call C4 (the remote charge) and Rachel walks back to step on invisible blocks.
Notch's explosion, used in some of RR small explosives, does not update the chunk for a player that has already been there and comes back, forcing the player to re-log to update and see the crater or destruction.
So before I started porting to 1.5  I came up with a new system that should fix it, and also made the new explosions a great spectacle to stare at. Now when you fire a rocket or blow something up with the charge or timed bomb the blocks fly out into the air!


Flying dirt

Flying sand & cobble stone


So hopefully this will be great and if Mojang fixes its part, not much lag will occur anymore.  But you probably already know me. I like to push this java monster to the limit, and I have fun doing it.


Wish me luck because I'll be competing on the county spelling bee on Wednesday!

And if you haven't seen it yet here is the latest webisode of our Nuclear Adventures.

MCPE Multiplayer Info 0.7.0

From now on I will start posting news on Minecraft Pocket Edition!

The big news today: Multiplayer! here is the tweet by jbernhardssin

As you can see from the image there are 2 servers up one where "superjohan2000" is the admin of and he can manage it and another server where he is whitelisted and can join. The servers will hold 10 players.

And here is a little info on how multiplayer in 0.7.0 will work, according to droidgamers 


"Initially all servers will be hosted through Mojang and anyone wanting to run their own server will have to pay Mojang a monthly fee. Administrators will have commands available through a custom GUI in-game instead of having to memorize actual commands to type. Multiplayer servers will be accessible through Wifi at first with 3G/4G connectivity coming in a future update. Also the initial roll out of multiplayer will feature a few servers as a bit of a soft beta launch. After everything is tested, multiplayer will fully  launch in another update a couple of weeks after the beta launch.

As for actually accessing a server, players will have to be whitelisted regardless of what server they are trying to connect to. Each server will have their own whitelist that players will need to apply to get on. If you're not on a whitelist, that server won't show up on the server list in-game. You do not need a Minecraft PC account to be able to play on Minecraft: Pocket Edition servers but if you do have one, that name will appear when you log into servers. There will be nameplates as well and most likely skins will be available also."

ARE YOU EXCITED?
