Let's Play Minecraft: Ep. 262 - Sky Factory Part 4

[@123tatirox]

As soon as Jeremy started building the smeltery, I thought "They're going to end up with so much of Gavin's blood in that thing..."

[@like17badgers]

but just think, they are gonna have tons of blood in there once they want Pig iron

[@jacobbrockhaus2737]

Nytheris so so much blood, it will be filled to the brine with that crimson liquid

[@MrDamienBane]

oh hell.....hope they fixed that thing with gravestones in smelteries crashing the game

[@Buzzy_Bland]

Nytheris My first thought was that since it took me goddamned hours to figure out smelters at their most basic level in creative, meaning that it'll take about ten years for them to figure them out in this.

[@CopiousDoinksLLC]

I like how Gavin starts suffocating in the tree and rather than just tell everyone what's happening in a few words, he decides to scream incomprehensibly until 3/4 of his life bar is already gone. Gavin Free, MLG clutch gamer, everyone.

[@blahblah9036]

I legitimately ADORE the interaction between them when Michael gave Gavin his gift.

[@steveasat2]

"Is it on the edge of a biome?" Every now and then Gavin drops a hint that he know WAY more about Minecraft than he lets on. He was, after all, the first guy in AH to play, and only suggested doing a Let's Play so he could pull the lava bucket trick in episode 1. I think everyone figured out quickly that Dumb Obnoxious Gavin is a lot more entertaining than being Ryan #2.

[@auravale1827]

Yeah, it's the same in GTA, he's probably the best flyer out of all of them but he plays the idiot because it's entertaining

[@JehuOathofWarPatterson]

Gavin is extremely good at games. But its more entertaining and fits better with the other on screen personalities for him to play the idiot or fuck up occasionally. Its like twelve towers where he conveniently forgot 6 blocks. When he helped build the let's play and helped Michael get his blocks

[@Fiyeroification]

He still does do a lot of dumb shit, but he literally runs a channel centred around science based on him using a highly technical camera. Like, he lacks common sense a lot of the time, but he's definitely not the idiot they make him out to be, and is definitely one of the more educated members of the crew (Geoff is too, but he's more educated in the arts and management, as opposed to science and maths, so it probably doesn't come across in the same way).

[@superblahman]

Nah Gavin is a living breathing oxymoron who is a genius and an idiot at the same time.

[@edisontrent618]

[@crimsonbeskar2478]

Dear Jeremy. The smeltery doubles the ore you put in, for example if you put one iron ore in a furnace it becomes one iron ingot, but with this it becomes two, which is very helpful. To get it out you use a smeltery drain with a seared faucet on it in the smeltery and put a casting table under it with an ingot cast in it. To make the ingot cast you need to already have an ingot and molten gold in the smeltery. Right click the ingot into the casting table and right click the seared faucet to dump the gold onto the ingot, it will destroy the ingot, but let you pour the molten metal into it to get double the materials out. p.s. you can make more seared bricks and put them on top of the others to make the smeltery bigger and hold more ore. Have a nice day.

[@draconicchaos]

jared austin in the newest version of sky factory you cant double ore output anymore. go watch captainsparklez or X33n's channels, they mention it

[@callumfoxvlogs]

Mike Cowles You can't double ore anymore? That's stupid. It was so helpful.

[@Redxfighter0]

@Mike Cowles it's a good thing that they're playing a slightly older version then, because they clearly got 8 copper from 4 ore. Unless Ryan actually bothers to update their modpacks.

[@sapanator123]

@Mike Cowles They just showed that the smeltery doubled the ore, so that's not the version they're on.

[@callumfoxvlogs]

Well they just need to make sure they make everything into dust blocks and smelt that to get maximum ores.

[@joshuapetty6800]

[@MattyBronjy123]

pls guys.... someone tell geoff the reason the platform was 25 blocks away is because the animals won't spawn if you are within 25 blocks of the area and he needs to just be patient

geoff and patience do not work well with each other...

[@splatterspree1]

[@tomwitowski]

Animals can be spawned with baits, named "Cow bait", "Chicken bait" etc. They're made with farmable stuff, just start a small farm and go for it. An "Animal net" will also be useful. And for the love of Geoff, stop melting saplings! Make infinite water pool with two source blocks, and if necessary, replace it later with HarvestCraft well.

[@Herblamagurgon]

They also just need to stay away from the grass platform and animals will spawn. That is why the book specifies it to be 25 blocks away.

[@PHANTOMCOWGIRL]

You know what they say, a watched point in space will never spontaneously spawn creatures.

hi bro be nice

[@samedwardson2757]

If they want animals to spawn they need to stay away from the platform during the day. Animals spawn on grass more than 25 blocks from any player in sunlight. The reason nothing was spawning is because they kept making it bigger.

[@rasmusNorby]

Just a tip: (And please tell Geoff this repeatedly :D) IF you are on a LADDER or ROPE and you CROUCH, you will stick to the ladder/rope and NOT FALL DOWN. This will help you when trying to move around the rope OR IF SOMEONE ELSE IS PASSING YOU on said ladder or rope because you will NOT FALL DOWN. Same principle when standing on a ledge, but you guys know that. You can't fall off a block if you are crouched :D SO CROUCH IS KEY!

[@HammerdWalrus]

Tips for Lil J: The smelter is a way to turn the ore (pieces) you have into full ore if you have enough for a single ingot, but that is more for creating custom tools, not just smelting. Also, you can 'fuse' metals in there, so if you put 3 Aluminum ingots and 1 Copper ingot into the smelter interface, you will get 4 Aluminum Brass ingots. So be careful with the iron, because it can combine with some other metals, so empty the other metals you have in there before you put something else in. Tips for Geoff: Hit F7 (or one of the Function Buttons), you get an overlay of X's that show where you need light the most, the tiny torches don't work as well as the regular torches (Red X's shows low light, Green shows enough, Yellow shows you need a bit more). You may not be in the right biome to spawn animals, I think you are trying to spawn them in a river biome, which only aquatic mobs will spawn. But as you go further out, you will see greener grass as that is a plains biome. Tips for Michael: Craft fans and levers as soon as you are able to generate a surplus of iron, the fans will push the monsters that spawn in the dark room to a central location so you can kill them easier, and craft wooden spikes, they will cause damage to monsters and animals, they will get brought down to I believe 1-2 hearts. Tips for Gavin: Stop suffocating in the damn trees. Tips for Ryan: Put regular sieves in a 3x3 square, and have more than one gravel, sand, dirt, or dust in your hot bar and right click with the item and profit. This does work with larger amounts of sieves, largest I've done is 6x6. Enjoy.

They can't really finish this or even cover a significant amount of it in only a few episodes. By giving it out periodically they can supply the people who want this and they can supply the people who want minecraft 1 offs.

[@hellcatz1817]

Kieran I understand what you mean but its their choice what to do, it shouldn't be us making them get bored of their lives by just making them play a game/game mod to the point were their just bored of it.

[@richardsmith8787]

Kieran I completely understand how you feel it annoys me too a bit. But the reason they space them out or not finish a series is because they pretty much wait for the previous episode to get a certain amount of views and likes. So that they aren't wasting there time trying it keep a series alive that no one is watching.

[@hellcatz1817]

In my eyes the spreading of the videos make you not get bored of watching the series, you see some youtubers spamming the same game every week you will get bored, this way you actually are excited to watch these videos and not just go "meh"

You should make a platform down at the bottom so you don't have to constantly make new bridges, and light it up so mobs don't spawn. Also Jeremy needs to build a roof for the mob area because the spiders will climb out of it, just make the roof glass

[@Penguirrel]

Dear Ryan. I know you will never read this but if you do I want to tell you something. If you make it far enough in this mod pack you can automate everything.You can make thousands of dirt in seconds and I personally have almost 60 million cobblestone from doing nothing. If you continue I believe that you can make it there. Have a nice day.

[@Tanjaaraus]

but then isn't it almost like playing creative again? What is the fun in that, other than saying your earned it ofc - that is a big bonus, just don't see the fun in automating everything

[@michaeluhlhorn8418]

+Morisith The point of automation is to make it faster for the next tier. When they get into the iron age they should be able to automate everything from the stone age and prior. It takes a fair amount to get to the next age, automation just makes it a bit easier.

[@privatelast8724]

I feel as though when Jeremy eventually realizes that he could have made an infinite water source he'll question why they're even attempting this when they can't even remember the stuff that's been there since they started playing... And yet we would have nothing better

[@privatelast8724]

The fans should probably tell them to make an infinite water source with 2 water buckets in a 2x2 area though

[@privatelast8724]

And working builders wands to put down more material faster when they have to smash it with a hammer

[@privatelast8724]

And that the reason the achievement book specifies 25 blocks away is because you need to be a certain distance away for stuff to start spawning. Geoff constantly going over to see why things aren't spawning is why they aren't spawning.

[@figtree3321]

If you guys make a 2x2 trough and put 2 water source blocks in like opposite ends of it diagonally (if that doesn't help if you know how a coordinate graph in math works it's like quadrants 1 and 3 or 2 and 4) it'll make an infinite water source if you pick up the water with a bucket not Where you placed the source black so that'll be helpful, also if I'm not mistaken you can do the 2x2 dirt thing and plant 4 oak saplings to make a big tree, and if not then the other saplings will work as well. And one last thing. Geoff, the reason why platforms have to be 25 blocks away is because animals won't spawn unless they're 25 blocks away from a player, so sitting there watching the grass won't make them spawn cause your too close. Think of it like the mob spawner, when you were not near it mobs spawned. So just stay on the center island and be patient
