  • whose hear of buildcraft coz u can do all that with 1 machine lol

  • What mod is this?

  • @buddypnut1 It says in the title STUPID!!!!

  • @MrJackStill Shut up, you can just help him out instead of going out of your way to be a jerk.

  • @Rennoc51 You're the jerk, jerk.

  • is it possible if you could tell us how do you make the frames move ? i was trying to find it how to do it but i cant find it anywhere and you are the only person to create something like this so far. could you please tell us how to make it or even make a tutorial on it. Please .

  • So, if I'm lookign at this right, frames are something like the Zeppelin mod block-entities. They pop out of the grid, move their necessary distance, then pop back into it. And it looks like, with this demo, that you've gotten inventories straightened out, for the most part.Though, I have never seen where the frames and controllers meet. . . I'm curious as to how they actually connect, because they obviously do somewhere.

  • Frames are missing in RedPower 2 Pr4d for 1.1!

  • @julian5736

    No joke!

    Why is this development feature that is still rather glitchy and unfinished missing from the stable release!! Use your brains...

  • There has to be 2 rows of block breakers because of how the frames work. I assume at least. Unless eloraam makes a frame that has wiring and pipe built in, we will have to do it that way. The pipes have to go behind the block and the frame on the side. Any pieces on the side would block the machine from cutting to the edge.

    =[ ]

    would cut

    [ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ] [ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ] [ ][ ][ ][ ][ ][ ]

    and so on, until the hole was 2 wide then it couldn't cut any deeper.

  • Could you atleast release a beta version of frames? They are really amazing.

  • Pretty cool, but aren't the two rows of block breakers redundant? It moves only one block at a time, so a second row is useless unless it moves 2 blocks at a time. Other than that, pretty amazing.

  • @emzeiss00 It would be useless anyway unless the two rows were next to each other.

  • @emzeiss00 It looks like the two rows are necessary, because the Frames and Tubes can't connect from above, only from the side. So one would need to connect it on the side. So if It only had one row, when it got close to the edges of the quarry, the Frames on the side would hit the wall and the Block Breakers wouldn't be able to break the last row of blocks. So by adding a second row of Block Breakers, the new row on the other side of the Frames Could break that last row of blocks.

  • @emzeiss00 maybe it is needed to get to the edges.

  • @emzeiss00 It apears to me that it has 2 rows (one on each side) for when it hits the edges of the mining pit, and it adds to the visual effect of a heavy duty mining machine.

  • @st0n1e They aren't implemented.....

  • Please tell us the recipe(s)!!!!!!!

  • sweet! can't wait for that XD

  • Or you could use buildcraft rather than building complicated machinery

  • @nickmilne97 I think the point is just to demonstrate what you can do with frames. Frankly, there is practically no point to this for the average Minecrafter when Buildcraft quarries are within reach but I think this video is supposed to say that you can do more with frames than just open some neat doors.

  • @TheSuperSmashBrother well, considering that it moves so quickly, it will mine faster than quarries, so i would make one of these instead of a quarry. i have nothing against quarries, but if these prove somewhat straightforward to build, ill use these instead.

  • @nickmilne97 buildcraft is too resource intensive for a tree farm, and is too overpowered in any case. besides, this looks cooler.

  • I wonder how the fps is when you do massive stuff like this

  • When are you gonna release frames to actual rp2

  • TUT PLZ

  • Why dont you just have a layer of breakers which move down a block a a time like this.

    ___|___

  • @mrhomiebro Simple, it is way too expensive. Would you waste 500+++ iron on that project? Obviously the intent of this video is to show this new feature in action, not to show off with an unrealistic huge machine.

  • Watching this, I had an amazing super complex idea:

    Automatic NPC Village building machine.

    Frames move a GIANT machine of deployers and removers and use them to construct the main buildings in an NPC village, and then uses dispencers to pump in 1-2 villagers per home.

  • @fludd13 + 50 internets

  • @fludd13 it would be like a stamp, only for villages! i will devise stamps for everything, including starter houses when frames are released.

  • @fludd13 Reminds me somehow of the last scene with the mice rebuilding earth in the Hitchikers Guide to the Galay movie

  • These are more epic than BC quarries cause they can go horizontal too, and in fact would go a lot further horizontal, limiting you only by wire length.

  • @Reevin they're better than BC quarries because you don't just place a block and it makes it's self.

  • are Frames added in current version

  • lol i need a tut for this.

  • how to build? ii wanna build a 10x10 one. :D

  • When thats the question -.-

  • @Sherlocck21st lol bro we can already do that

  • Can you make a tutorial on how to use frames?

  • Holy crap, bro. This can mean an automated snow golem factory!

  • SO if a giant player statue were amde on SMP and it had a crap ton of internal workings inside it, it could have a hand with block breakers at the end of it and have frames make he hand extends out wards towards someplace and just snatch up the whole lot! I SAY! IT'S STEVEZILLA! The statue could also move by having a complex frame system at the bottom of some sort, and each pixel may need to by represented by a 3x3 block! :3

  • what happens to the blocks if they were to go all the way to bedrock?

  • @Eloraam Is there something that determines the speed at which the frames move? I saw this and thought a fully functional elevator could be created but an elevator that moves at that speed would be unrealistic and impractical.

  • WHAT. DOES. IT. DO?

  • @stykzninja1 Its a automatic quarry digging up the ground for you. Keep in mind it requires so much materials it would pretty much be late end game items.

  • so its a digger?

  • Cool but why is the far side lagging so much

  • @Settian1 I would suppose it goes across a chunk border.

  • @Settian1

    It's not lag, rather its the time between when Red Power removes the frame entities and replaces them with actual blocks...

  • Shut up and take my money!

  • @hagamablabla take your money?

  • @christophermash Memes.

  • @supamap I kinda felt the same way too at first. But after going on her site and reading everything she is extremely intellegent. She helped with so much people don't even realize. Thanks Eloraam for all the hard work you put into these mods to make total strangers happy !!

  • you should make the frames able to go different ranges like 1 block,2blocks etc. do that both lines of blockbreakers worked

  • how does this work?

  • do u collect what they pick up?

  • In my minecraft games, I like to do things the hard way. That's why I really like Better than Wolves. I like this way of building a quarry rather than the BC way. But, I don't really like the redstone on walls or redstone circuit blocks quite as much. I'd rather just build a clock or an RSNOR latch myself.

  • @minecrafttimesportal if you look at the recipes for the redpower gates, you almost are making 'em. It's just that your doing it in a crafting table and the final result is less glitchy and more compact

  • could this even be any cooler! (nope)

  • Woah ... GREAT WORK!!

    I can see the whole concept with the frame mining machine and the sorting engines and so rly GREAT WORK!!!!! This is revolution to the minecraft wiring well now i could say it's literally electricity with all of this things ! GOOD WORK AGAIN !!!

  • Okay..... How Me Making This Me Finding Myself Dombo

  • I like where you placed your bed in the video. That was my beds proximity to such a machine the last time I booked a bargain holiday.

  • ...wow

    

  • @supamap BC quarries are not OP, powering them requires a lot of micro managing, fuel, coolant, but i love this(red power) way of doing thing way better, it is balanced in a different way and seem to be pretty fun. It is nice to see a little relief from the BC.

  • WHEN IS THE FIRST RELEASE OF THIS!?!

  • I love the bed.

  • ...im subscribing NAO!!!

  • Does the frame motor have to stand on the ground? Or can you make a sort of airship?

  • Also i was pleased to see that you tubes don't have an entity for ever tube piece AND item in it, like buildcraft has. RP only has an entity per tube piece.

    This great for performance. It is easy to make BC lag the game.

  • Eta on release?

  • OMGG, that just make me open the mouth! holyyy cowwsss *.*

  • wha, why is that gingers go have souls in the recs.....

  • @josh12345723 'Cause of REDpower in the tags. Lol.

  • Congrats. you made a greifers best friend.

  • @sallydvl Wouldn't a quarry be alot more effective for griefing.

  • @sallydvl by the time a greifer has made the quarry (IF a greifer was actually smart enough to create such a thing, which I highly doubt..) the victim would've already alerted the admins.

  • Looks good, too bad it isnt moving 3 spots at a time, and having all 3 rows activate all at once, which would be really nice.. much quicker quarrying.

  • lol i love the bed at the top hahaha

  • cool, but what does it do?

  • I hope when BC 3.1 and RP2 are out, they work together. The complex machines that RP2 make possible would really benefit from the production(the new blue prints and paths) power.

    Imagine making a complex tunneling machine that can only go one direction. After a while it would be out to sea. But deconstruct it with a BC Quarry. Then rebuild it with a BC blue print.

    Only limit: MC handles entities poorly. I know BC gens a lot with its pipes; yours looks like it might be bad too.

    Thanks

  • Looks great but I still love buildcraft and industrialcraft

  • Wtf?! How you do that O_O

  • ultimate greif

  • @christophermash ever herd of thaum craft and the unstable singularity?

  • @zombieemperor yes but its not smp

  • @christophermash wow really?

    dam

  • @christophermash griefing in style !!!

    

  • @mickaboy3 yep

  • 1 word: awesome

  • elo is a girl :P

  • @CowsdaemonRSNL Don't be sexist

  • Me wantz :3 watching this the 4th time :)

  • This need a tutorial!! :) Even if it's just for demonstration!

  • Oh wow, this looks...

    Fantastic! With al these uses for frames, the intuitive tubes, Sorting machines, Deployers, Breakers, etcetera etcetera, You could build anything ANY factory mod can offer!

    In block form, atleast.

    The BC Quarries are great, but far, far too easy to manufacture. they require no know-how to create, just a recipie. RP Quarries, however, are a fantastic example of RedPower engineering at its best! Requiring redstone know-how, and general intelligence!

  • @MRlegoman9

    Furthermore, you could build A flying base that can strip mine a mountain into a flat plain, create a tower that scrapes the sky from the remains of the mountain, and then convert the tower into a gigantic factory with a quarry! All these ideas, fantastic ideas, stemming from Eloraams excellent coding!

  • Also: Its like a quarry, but better :3

  • Will you be able to release a new version before 2012 ? Eloraam, you are one of the most talented modders ive ever seen :)

  • Dear Eloraam,

    Are you single?

  • I want to see more of this!!! :D

  • I WANT ONE OF THOSE! :D

  • So its a quarry that goes quite fast but is very laggy and takes the lifetime of a normal BC quarry to set up?

  • @Lairosenbs Yes, thats about it. But this is just a demonstration of frames. With enough creativity you could make a quarry that mines the whole world for you. So basicly, this is far better then a BC quarry.

  • What you kurde building this?

  • But will it blend?

  • @PervertBaka Just add paint and it will.

  • Well by the looks you only need one like of machines

  • does this lag? Killerbees won't allow this on his server because he's afraid all the moving entities with all the payers havig one will lag a lot.

  • @2020Mace This is a manually made quarry. Eloraam is simply showing that her mod is so damned awesome, you can use it to replicate other mods if you're good enough with logic and machines, which I doubt you are. This "quarry" machine was built piece by piece, circuit by circuit, and is an actual moving machine without any of the magic blocks you'd find in Buildcraft.

  • but will it blend ?

  • @magictrev80 Next up, The new, Redpower 2, Blender!

  • You so awsome.....!!!!

  • WOW you can use redstone? I just thought it was decorative :D

  • YOU ARE THE BES OF THE BEST !!!

  • awsome

  • Awesome mining machine question about this with it being able to push down could you demonstrate it going up and creation of the machine perhaps?

    attempting to create plans for machines when frames are released

    xD

  • you man are freaking genius!!!!!!

  • @zanoes1 fyi eloraam is a girl

  • wow....that is epic....

  • wow, this is cool! Your machine works instead of you minig for hours like I did to build some rooms. Nice job, can I rent your machine?!! : )

  • when will it be out?

  • Now someone needs to add Na'vi mobs to this game to try and smash all your mining equipment.

  • I can't wait for the frames.

    After that, it will be completely possible to make a self-replicating supercolony of automatic machines that are slowly consuming the landscape.

    With a bit of ingenuity, buildcraft, industrialcraft and some item hacking, I bet the first automaton will be out soon.

    I'l already planning out to make a borer worm.

  • how does it handle water and lava? how about oil from BC?

  • also i notice on the right side of the video there are a bunch of complex real life things that do same thing...

  • you truly are a mining god...

  • When I saw RedPower for 1.7.3 I was literally jumping out of my shoes. Seeing how this mod is growing puts it on my must have list. Complex and technical mods are my thing :)

  • @Ccsteph22 you should check out any of the mods in the technic pack then. You don't have to use the technic pack but its got links to all the mods used in it so even if you feel the pack is detestable its still a good way to find new mods for people who like technical things.

  • i love you Ms Eloraam

  • Can we test it?

  • all i can say is "awsome" cant wait for the release off this great good eloraam

  • can u make a video on a horizontal miner ie a tunnel borer please. Thanks. Brill mod tho.

  • @ben13254 If you want a horizontal miner, use Railcraft's Tunnel Borer. They are compatible, I have them both.

  • @anonomusfromtheweb I'm sure he already knows that, I think he just wants to see how it would handle on a horizontal axis.

  • This is amazing! Imagine the possibilities! With this there's no need to use either IC2 nor Buildcraft! Can't wait until it's realesed! Keep up the good work!

  • @Rubiksfan01 Yeah but Eloraam should keep those mods.

  • @Rubiksfan01 That's a problem don't you think? i mean its good that you wont have to install many mods, but wasn't that half the reason for The Forge? Red power, don't get me wrong, is an amazing mod, i use it all the time, but its kinda putting other mods out a business don't you think? i personally will still use BuildCraft because it is simply an amazing mod too, But IC2 i have never been a fan of because it had too many recipes and stuff :P But my point is i hope RP Doesn't take over mods.

  • @MinecrafterX3 Your absolutely right. I didn't think about that. But mods like BC and IC2 most likely won't die out beacause of RP2. There will be people that transfers completely like me, but RP is to advanced for some peoples liking. Therefore you don't have to worry about other mods going extinct. Someone will always like BC nad IC, no matter how good RP gets.

  • @MinecrafterX3 I HIGHLY doubt RP2 will put other mods out of business. It's not as well-known as BC or IC2. Typically, when I ask more technical Minecrafters, the popularity goes like this: BC, IC2, RP.

    There's also how advanced the mod is. And, last I remembered, things like Blutricity were less efficient than other mods' methods of power.

    BC is very productive. RP2 allows for more complex projects, and IndustrialCraft 2 seems to actually have an identity, it just.. fits in.

    Each are fine.

  • o.0 so its obsolete before its even ready? I mean it seems like it will take longer to set it up then it would for this thing to mine to bedrock lol.

  • @CrypticMass You can still do a quick and easy BC quarry mock up.

  • @spikeof2010 3 planks along the top, 2 cobble down down either side iron in the middle and redstone underneath :) vanilla block and craft a piston together with a slimeball

  • I. WANT. THIS. NOW. 

  • ThiSS IS BUTTER THAN QUrraY CuZ iT's VErY VeRy FAST =DD

  • To everyone saying things like "other mods do this easyer", guess what, IRL you can't just slap a quarry to the ground and call it a day, this is, even if not completely, a lot closer to reality in terms of complexity and effort

  • When do you think an update to redpower will be released with frames and redbus?

  • Why you need a buildcraft quarry

  • AND MAKE CITIES IN A FEW MINUTES!!!!The only vulnureable place is Control Center(the machine itself protected with Reinforced Stone) and along with nuclear power plant it is a potential target for griefing.

  • @olegattor123 and layerd with bedrock. One way in One way out 3 Trillion guards and one VIP

  • You can also make a house building machine with that.

    Idea is:

    Deployers (set up in a П shape) build a floor, then machine goes up, and cycle repeats until it build 6 floors (counter stops the timer).The entire machine can move horisontally using another Frame that is high in the sky, then build an another house.All the electronics are inside Control Center(the signal is transported using Wireless Redstone).Now if griefer blown your house up, you can made another VERY quickly

  • oh my, why are you so badass Eloraam?

  • The frames seem to do the same job as the quarrry, and although it looks so badass and complex ,to be honest, i still cant see a reason why we would use the frames instead of the quarry, as it isnt " cheap to assemble " ( no offence )

  • @MrHellowind never the less, good job!

  • @MrHellowind if you don't want bc but this is like a SEE WHAT I CAN DO!!! video not a this is better then that so use this

  • i like eloraam's look on things so much: make things only do a single thing so you have unlimited possabilities(sorry for bad english, not native)

  • And who was the 1 hater to dislike this video? FlowerChild?

  • @StreetStar5 nope^, it was spacetoad ^^

  • @Marc09619 Hilarious!

    But still, even if they already decided against it (just for now I hope), I'm still hoping for a future collaboration between Eloraam, Alblaka and Spacetoad.

    Imagine the potential awesome if they would ever gang up on one mod!

  • It would be much more appropriate to build this horizontally, maybe use this one to dig the chamber that you build the next one in. And once that one has started progressing you could build another and another until you're cutting and endless cross into the world.

  • All other mods are being demolished :)

  • this is extremely clever on the frame's part, but i think buildcraft quarries may be more expensive to assemble, it is much more convenient to run. but that looks far more industrial on terms of bulk.

    i like it, and i was once completely against redpower. well done!

  • I love this mod!

    I always thought buildcraft machines are overpowered. THIS is fun!

  • is there a limit to the # of blocks on a single frame system? i almost feel that larger machines will have to be slower or cost more to move or require more structural support (i.e. tiers of frames) to make it more realistic and less op. and the more complex building would be more fun

  • Winning!

  • Lol, it's a redpower quarry...

  • Good bye Buildcraft!

    Redpower FTW!

  • Welp. I'm going to go hang some wallpaper so that I can claw at it until this comes out.

  • I love the way youve implemented frames. It's very simple to understand yet it has wonderfully complex possibilities, especially when control comes into play. I would ignore the comments that argue it's OP. The mateirials are not low cost and even a design like the one in the video has a limited range. Any chance of an eta for the next release? =D

  • What's a piston?

  • @spikeof2010 ? seriously?

  • @spikeof2010 your retarded if you don't know that.
