Garry's Mod Let's Play Day 1

February 16, 2016

Good morning! :) Yesterday I tried out the game Syndicate. It was made in 1993 & it was OK I guess. I tried to log into the Sheep & Creeper Minecraft server & they were gone. Another server bites the dust. I logged into a different one instead, CrepitusMC. That little house with the red roof on the island is mine. It's partially hidden behind my neighbor's tall build. I added a basement yesterday which has windows facing out into the ocean underwater. Very relaxing down there. I also swapped out the acacia trees for my favorite spruce trees & added spruce trim to my house. From now on the roof will be done in stone brick & spruce instead of stone brick & acacia.

After that I got started on my new world on my server with the now working Millenaire mod. I built a starter house with an attached greenhouse & then started concentrating on the Millenaire village next to me. I want the village completed because I don't want us to smack into each other later on. If their village is finished I won't have to worry about them building over my build.

Have a great day everyone!

Good morning everyone! Today is the day that hubby & I met 24 years ago. We spent Valentine's Day gaming ... separately. LOL! He played Battlefield 4 & I figured out why Millenaire wasn't working on my server. Once I fixed it, I had to start a new world so I could hopefully have a Millenaire village somewhere near my base. I must have created dozens of worlds, deleted them & tried again. I finally found a world I loved. Beautiful ... just the right biomes near spawn, a Taiga where my base will go (I love building with spruce trees), & a Millenaire village really close to my base. I mean very close! Eye shot from where my home will be! It's not a Norman village, but it'll do. :) Hubby & I went out late in the evening & grabbed a Valentine's Day breakfast at McDonald's & then came home & binge watched TV on Hulu until 4:a. I'm running on only 4 hours sleep right now, but the good news is, I'll be able to go to bed early tonight. See you all tomorrow & have a great day!

Valentine's Day 2016

Good afternoon & Happy Valentine's Day to everyone! Yesterday was pretty good. I watched Westworld ... a movie I had seen a LONG time ago & hated, but I didn't hate it that much this time around. I learned that Google+ also doesn't like being loaded in a frame (just like facebook) &then hubby & I went out & had a nice lunch at Arby's. Yesterday's YouTube video was on a game called Big Pharma. Not my thing, I tried out the 1st tutorial. After that I streamed Minecraft to Twitch for a few hours ... 1st on the LumiaCraft server:

And then on my custom modded home server:

Have a great Valentine's Day everyone!

Big Pharma Day 1

February 13, 2016

Wow, yesterday was a bit FUBARd. The Internet went out for 2 hours, essentially shutting me down for that long, then the movie I sat down to watch turned out to be 3½ hours, so I ditched that since that would have ended the day making it 5½ hours of day passing between the Internet & movie. Now I have 2 rows of the temperature afghan to crochet today & since hubby wants to see that movie I skipped yesterday, hopefully we'll watch it today & I can catch up on the afghan. Then I tried to work on my personal Website which uses frames & I learned that facebook doesn't like to be loaded into a frame. I didn't feel like messing with it for the remainder of the day so I went ahead & let it open fullscreen & suck people out of my Website. If the want back, hopefully they'll know how to use the back button. LOL! Then it was on to my live Twitch feed for the week. I Learned that I HATE one of the games I have (actually several so far) & can't stand the fact that I have to buy all these games just to find out that I really like 1 out of 7 of them. What a waste of money. I wish finding new games was cheaper. Anyway, the game I played for MORE than 15 minutes this week was ARK: Survival Evolved. It reminds me a lot of Minecraft, but with much better graphics & dinosaurs ... that killed me ... again & again. I still really like the game though. 1st one this entire week that I've liked enough to play for hours. As I said, I've spent a lot of money on games & after 7, I really liked ONE. Ugh. Anyway, while the Internet was down I spent a lot of time on my Minecraft server since now that it's run locally I don't need Internet to play:

My other server for the day was Goximo where I added a nice patio to my riverside home (river is behind me in the screenshot):

Have a great day everyone!

Good morning! Yesterday I worked on the temperature & kit afghans while watching

In December 1914, an unofficial Christmas truce on the Western Front allows soldiers from opposing sides of the First World War to gain insight into each other's way of life.

I added a Steam game to my library:

Spoko & Poko: Drop in to the world of two friendly beetles: relaxed Spoko and angry friend Poko. They need your help to transport a ball to their cottage. Are you ready to help them? Remember to collect all diamonds on the way! 

Move the trolley and bounce the ball collecting points and diamonds. Then put the ball into the lower trolley. It is the only way to keep the treasures you collected before. When you collect all diamonds, you will go to the next level. 

There is enough fuel in the trolley to bounce the ball a fixed number of times. Try to plan your bounces in such a way, which allow you to put it into the lower truck at the end. 

The farther you are from the trolley, into which throw the ball, the more bonus you get. A small green light on the trolley indicates activation of the bonus.

Yesterday's game was Command & Conquer: Red Alert 2. I recorded the gameplay for a YouTube video, but in the end all I had was audio without any video. :/

I spent some time on that Minecraft Earth map & build my childhood home on the exact coordinates that it belongs on. WOO!

And did some work on the house on my server:

I ended up on Unified Gaming again last night but before I could devise a plan to build anything another player wanted to "meet". I logged out. Usually when a player wants to meet like that, they kill you & take all your stuff. I wasn't in the mood to die. LOL!
