Thanks for the excellent demos today at the university Science and Engineering Day. Your team worked so hard and our children loved it!
If you have time, we’d love a LIDAR map of Fordingbridge (SP6 1) if that would be possible. It would be a great tool for the local schools and scout groups when they’re learning about the local area.
Thanks!
Hi, sorry to take so long to reply. I did tis a while ago but had trouble uploading it to Minecraft Mapworld so I’ve given up and just put the ZIP at a URL. http://lemur.ecs.soton.ac.uk/~cjg/Fordingbridge.zip
I’d love to see anything you build on top of it!
Hi there,
thanks for a great event today! I have installed feed the beast mod installer and it seems to have installed correctly. Can I please ask, how do I launch it in minecraft?
I’ll answer this one quickly, as it’s easy. FTB installs a new copy of Minecraft for every modpack. You launch it via the FTB launcher not from in the game. If you have a machine with more than 2Gb I strongly recommend upping the max memory config option in the FTB launcher..
ps. thanks for coming it was a great day but we are all shattered!
Hi everyone I ‘m a bit shattered and will work through any messages over the next few days. I have to hand-approve them to stop spam so your message might not appear right away.
