Challenge Accepted: Extremely Long Distance Booster

[TheLugiProductions]

What program did you use for those huge walls? MCedit?

[delt999]

Dude how I make green torches?

[sisygall123]

@delt999 wow you must be just came into the world of minecraft...no offence.. but its a texture pack....

[kplee89]

Couldn't you travel a theoretically infinitely long distance with an extremely long booster?

[zBrizwizard]

i want to know did u dig that area out legit??

[tjb0607]

@zBrizwizard MCEdit and not legit.

[zBrizwizard]

i want to know did u dig that area out lrgit??

[kataklyzm]

watch?v=2NexHRE4SZA I used your booster method but stacked one more cart into the stack and left the track the same in the booster section and went 10,500+ tracks ;P video proof above if anyone wants to test it them selfs I can upload the world for ya.

[thenamelles]

I was wondering is it pssible to make minecart track through nethergates,?You could travel between 2 long distance places which woul be handy

[Ricksdetrix]

@thenamelles You can make tracks and stations in the nether, but if you run a minecraft into a portal I believe it sends you to the top of the nether to your death :D

[bradwizz34]

how do you have so much free space man? did you blow it up or are you running a mod version or sumthing! P.S. love the videos

[Roupz1]

What is your texture pack give ne download link including the pickaxe look and icon on bottom and the green circle wen u break stuff

[TheBlackWing5]

more vids?

[tjb0607]

I want to see this go over 9000 blocks. So then I could tell people that the power level of this booster is over 9000.

[MapleHue]

Where do you even get this much iron?!

[tjb0607]

@MapleHue he spawned it, of course.

[MapleHue]

@tjb0607 Yeah I found out how I could copy things :p Love it.

[Haxorinatorman]

Hey dude can you upload your green circle thing when you hit a block because its cool and I would love to use it, Thanks

[Youloeka]

@ProphecySC2 watch his video about making a cart station

[ProphecySC2]

how did u make the curve on your booster that puts it back in its place? i cant get the track to curve , it connects to the wrong piece, causeing me to have to go outward instead of direcly turning around

[threeeyedmutatedfish]

well it would have been alot easier if you used the quad booster ( /watch?v=ogV-NwNKT24 < and i think he used a 1 minecart booster).

[ShinmaRyuu]

Really hope notch adds in actually train stuff someday and not just modded minecart stuff. I know he has said no to going past a certain tech level like guns but maybe steam power since metal, coal, and water are all in the game. Steam Engines ftw :D

[jjsyue8193]

can you help? after i use the mcpactcher and run minecraft, the screen is black=(

[AngusGaming]

It's disappointing because you seem like a nice guy but we don't know much about you personally :/ Because you posted a few videos not related to minecraft a few months or years ago.

[necramar]

@AngusGaming Uhhh, what do you want to know?

[TheDavidRain]

What map editor you using to lay tracks now?

[FireAdmiral]

Wow.

[VaultTechGaming]

I think the intercontinental railway was done using a mod that keeps your cart going forever. powered carts are EXTREMELY slow...

[necramar]

@VaultTechGaming No, I got that straight from the guy who does it. Actually, if you watch his videos, he has sped it up by like 8 times. That's why you see it change from day/night a couple of times in a video, whereas in this video, I go almost the same distance in a single day and about 1/2 of one night.

[VaultTechGaming]

@necramar ohhh ok. Yeah I was thinking about the Minecraft Interstate, where he says that he uses the mod.

[KibbeZero]

Instead of running so much track for the demonstration, couldn't you create a loop track that can be connected to a redstone counter to count the laps? That way you don't have to lay down so much track for your demonstration.

[necramar]

@KibbeZero Heh, that plan has since been suggested to me. Oh, well, I probably should have done it that way, but I've since just switched to using a map editor to lay 2k strips of track with a just a couple of clicks. The track is up to about 15k at this point.

[KibbeZero]

@necramar Nice, hopefully soon we will see how many tracks it can actually run then :-)

[aullikTheBrain]

@necramar isnt it possible to make an unlimited booster by using a double minecart and sit in on of them??

[tistione]

@KibbeZero I think you can't do that without significantly slowing the minecart down.

[KibbeZero]

@tistione Probably true, but as long as it is consistent you can calculate the speed loss.

[wpftutorial]

It would be a much better video if you just showed the minecarts going really really fast. Most people don't care about the backinfo like the challenge etc.

[necramar]

@wpftutorial It was a video that was specifically intended to be a response to the challenge, not something formatted as a tutorial or as an "ohh pretty!!" video. The point is the challenge; the actual riding is just there for proof.

[necramar]

@gummiankaStudios For the same reasons I created the double booster in the first place. The circle boosters are extremely glitchy, change directions, and can't really be fit into an automated station.

This is something you can use practically in a regular station, and will achieve extreme distances.

[JesusOfSuburbia94]

This may sound stupid but couldn't you have just made a loop of track and just count how many times you went around?

[necramar]

@JesusOfSuburbia94 Yeah, I could have. But I'm pretty sure I would have lost count somewhere around the 50th or 60th lap. XD

And this is a little easier to show on video.

[Killboy78911]

where did you get such a wide open area.

[Killboy78911]

@Killboy78911 OH nvm I just finished the video.

[emu2469]

i love all of your vids, ur awsome!!
