Hello out there! I am so overwhelmed by all of your support, this is insane! Thank you! I have gotten a lot of questions about the shaders - so I am going to make a short video explaining the installation, settings I use, and some options you might want to consider especially if you aren't playing on a supercomputer. Look out for that on Sunday! Episode 2 is in the works as well! Thanks again everyone

"learning how to enjoy gaming again" That sums it up quite well. I've never played a save in a game for such a long period of time. The grind that is GTNH is a blessing in its own right. By forcing you to go slow the game makes you appreciate the leaps in progress a lot more. New machines can turn what was a soulcrushing grind before into a comfortable process afterwards. Basebuilding is something that I mostly ignored in other modpacks. When you don't need a lot of time to get all the resources you could ever need, there is hardly any reason to build a nice house. With GTNH however one quickly realizes that there is much time to be spend in the base which encourages you to turn it into a place that's comfortable to live in. What I really like about your video, is how you portrayed that personal story from the humble beginnings in a hole in the ground to a new shiny factory building. I really emphasize with that feeling of leaving your early game base behind, because you spend a lot of time there and it really becomes a sort of home. Have fun on your journey! It only gets crazier from here.

@Garronimo Ай бұрын

so accurate - for too long i had this version of what gaming was supposed to be in my head, just intrinsically fun - but the truth is the more you put in the more you get out. GTNH is the perfect way to realize that again if you had forgotten it like I had.

Condensing 300 hours into one 20 minute video is honestly insane. Props to you for managing to get the important stuff in. Also it took the group I’m playing with around 400 hours to reach EV, so nice work for getting there faster (although I’m sure people can get to EV much faster than this)

@Garronimo 26 күн бұрын

haha yes i watched early parts of the ballers run that was done by the GTNH devs (vods are on sampsa's channel) and they got to AE in mere days. Completely insane, though there are quite a few of them and they are the devs lol. I took basically a direct path to AE and filled all the ore processing time with bees and thaumcraft (using the block gate trick before i realized it was considered a bug saved at least 15 hours alone), did nearly everything in massive batches with no automation other than fuel (so minimal time spent making machines, tinkering with setups, etc), and used the home command

@Garronimo Ай бұрын

Thank you! I am using shaders - actually a custom shader made by one of the pack developers - but it's very very similar to complimentary shaders v4.7. Make sure you also download and install optifine (client side only) before you install the shaders. Fair warning - they are SUPER taxing on the GPU! I am very close to max utilization but I'm willing to trade a bit of FPS for aesthetics.

And maybe document the rest of your time in GTNH. And maybe other mods, you can make this a job if you want or just to pass the time just remember the choice to do something u love and possibly make it your job is better than having a job u hate that pays well. But I don’t know your financial situation so do what u want just always set times to do things that make u happy

Man I would love so much to be paid to play this gem... I'm currently unemployed trying to find a job I actually want to do (not like the one I had before) and it sometimes comes in my head that I should better be spending my time on something I would actually be paid to do (3D rendering and engine programming) instead of playing GTNH but I never had such a gaming experience in almost my whole life. I thought about making videos about my gameplay (~700h, mid-HV) but even if the communty is very welcoming and kind I don't think it's gonna be enough to pay the rent of my condo in Paris haha

@@MineNat69 i can relate, but i also think making time for things you enjoy is smart. Also - public speaking, relationship management, time management, marketing, SEO, video editing, and storytelling can all be valuable skills in the right context - not just youtube. Don't sell yourself short :) Maybe creating original mods or helping develop a pack, even GTNH itself, would be a place to hone the skills you want

Looks like you added some kind of shaders. If so what was that process like?

@Garronimo Ай бұрын

I did! I am using ComplementaryNeon by Sampsa (GTNH Dev), it's a slight alteration of Complementary Shaders v4.6 (4.7 is out at this point I believe). you just need 2 things: 1- Optifine for 1.7.10 2- Your shader of choice The GTNH wiki has some details on which shader packs work best and how to customize them to fit GTNH, but neither ComplementaryNeon or Complementary Shaders require any customization, which is why I use those :) Just drop optifine into your mods folder, then launch the game, go into settings ->shaders and select your shader if its already in the folder or user the open folder button and drop your shader zip in there, then select it. If you plan to use architecture blocks (the sloped ones) - be sure to turn "old lighting" on in the shader options. Hope this helps! Fair warning - they are resource hogs :P
