Between the Double Homework ALL THE WAY....

Well, Since I missed school yesterday, I have double homework all the way. *so intense*

But... on the bright side, I bought 4GBs of RAM for my old Dell Dimension 4700 (which surprisingly has a Pentium 4 processor, which surprisingly clocks out at 2.8Ghz, even though it is single-core) It should ship in 5-8 days.

Also! If I get some new subscribers and a few youtube views and blog pageviews, I'll make a tutorial on making songs with note blocks in minecraft! I've made a 3-instrument Loop Machine already!

Feelin Sick. Might record...

I'm feeling a little sick, but I don't sound sick. So, I might record episode 3.

S1 Ep2 is up!

I don't know what is going on with my video quality. I might go back to Windows Media Encoder for video and use Audacity for sound.

Uploading S1 Ep2

Episode 2 is being uploaded. I will probably record the next episode either today or sometime during the week when I have time. If I can't, expect a new video Saturday.

Season 1 Episode 2 - Link Coming Soon

RECORDING...

Hey I just recorded episode 2. I'm not much of a fan of it because it started raining during the video and I realized my house is above a large cave. Off camera I think I am going to prepare for a good ol' cave run!

Season 1 Episode 2 to be uploaded Tomorrow, Monday, Wednesday, or Friday. If not then, it will be up on Saturday. I apologize if this series becomes a once-weekly thing.

S1, Ep1 of Bman's Minecraft Blog is up!

There's the link! I don't know if I'll embed it or not, because of size the width and height of the player.

Restarted the Series

I am uploading the first episode of the first season RIGHT NOW. Hopefully I can have a regular schedule of an upload every Saturday and maybe on Wednesdays and Fridays if I have a video ready.

S1 Ep1 of Bman's Minecraft Blog. Video link and embed coming very soon!

Waiting... waiting....

Hopefully, I will soon be the 100% owner of the laptop I currently share with my mom (I'm 13) and that she uses for work. If she gets an iPad or other tablet device (probably an Archos G9 10.1 www.archos.com) she will probably barely use the better laptop. Then, I can use this here old Ubuntu machine for typin stuff... idk whatever. And I can use the newer laptop for MINECRAFT!

UGGH This Old Laptop!

Does anyone know how to play minecraft with only half a gig of RAM and not lag like crazy? Can I get 20 FPS at least with only 512MB RAM? Hopefully I can figure it out and I'll make some videos. I'll probably restart the series.

I Make Minecraft Skins!

I make custom MC Player Skins! If you want me to make you one, please send me a request via email (bman214@gmail.com). Also, you can view my work on Facebook at the page Bman214's Minecraft Skins. You can also send a request there by posting on the page's wall. If you make a request and I decide to make it, I'll post it on the page and put in the caption that you requested it.

Brohoster Goes Under, A Friend and I Explore Server Options

In case you didn't know, the popular server hosting service "Brohoster" has gone under. Brohoster is the company that hosted my server. So that means no server for me.

BUUUUT!! On a better note, a friend and I are exploring the options we have for hosting servers and might host a large server and hope to earn some cash from donations, player upgrades, clans, clan upgrades, etc.

Also, does anyone know how to run Minecraft smoothly on an old computer? I recently took my old laptop and loaded Ubuntu 11.04 on it to breath new life into the dying machine. It runs better, but I still cannot run Minecraft easily. So I'll still have to use the newer computer that I share with family. Hopefully I can post to this blog more from this old computer, though.
