Transcripts

hello everyone today we are going to

start a new Journey on Greg TCH New

Horizons as we spawn we are given a book

to guide us in our adventure but since

we are experienced we are going to do

things slightly differently thus we

shall leave this book lying here for the

next lucky Adventurer and so our journey

shall begin the first thing we will need

is food luckily there are some bushes

containing edible stuff all around the

place we can either break these bushes

to get some food or carefully collect

them for future cultivation the next

thing we want to worry about is the

night if we do not want to spend it

fighting nightmare monsters we need a

proper bed and the worst part of making

a bed is finding some sheep this took

quite a lot of time but we managed to

get six pieces of wool before night the

last thing we need is some wood so we

manually punch it out of Threes And

while that would be enough materials for

making the bed we also have to gather

some Flint for a crafting table and with

that we are now ready to assemble our

bed and this bed is going to require

quite a lot of wood so much that by the

time we finish gathering it it's already

time to sleep on the second day we shall

collect our stuff and start looking for

a place where we can settle after a

couple of days of exploration we decide

to set our base on a Riverside close to

an oil sprout a forest and a clay Canyon

now that we have a starting point we can

open our virtual guide book and start

following its

suggestions and thus we have our first

Flint tools next we shall have a place

where we can store all the stuff we

gathered so far so we make some chests

since we are now settling We Shall Have

a Farm Island we can also plant some of

the bushes we gathered earlier on the

will slowly spread out and give us a

high variety of foods going back to our

quests we shall now gather some Cobble

Stone however we are not Gathering it in

random places we are going to gather it

while we do some mineral prospecting

shafts because ores here spawn in veins

that also spawn in a grid and after some

other small tasks we finally align our

progression with the quests which means

that we are now ready to find enter the

Stone Age such age is going to require a

lot of material Gathering such as Stone

then we make our second tool a mortar we

can use that to get flint at a bet ratio

we can also use it to turn some clay

into dust and then mold that dust into a

bucket or to shred some logs next we

shall make some paper by soaking the

wood pulp with water and with that we

can finally upgrade our tools to the

thinker's version and throw away the old

ones moving on we shall now work towards

making some bricks so we cut a wood

frame and then start molding sand and

clay we use these for making a Coke oven

which we shall place where we need it

close to our furnaces then we trade our

first four pieces of charcoal for a

bucket so that we can use the byproduct

Gort to power our furnaces and now it is

time to go gather some Stone to trade it

for a better pickaxe thus we shall mine

a couple more prospecting holes once we

collected enough Stone we can trade it

for a pickaxe upgrade and with that we

can now gather a lot of raw

minerals then once we have stocked up

enough iron we can start crafting our

first tools with those we have now

unlocked a variety of improvements for

our roofless bace none of which is going

to give us a shelter so we shall go do

some more mining to stock up some

building material

once we have polished some of the stone

we Min we can start laying down the

paving of our new home and here you can

see the finished result moving on we can

start working on the next objective

bronze we can make it by mixing up some

copper and tin dusts and this is the

material we are going to use for all of

the steam AG Machinery however before

getting into that we should do some more

exploration

and all we found in that area was a

bunch of books and some

bricks moving on our next objective is

to get some steam but before doing all

of these tasks we should also get a new

room where we can place the start of our

industry once we have made a little

expansion with the stone we had left we

can craft our first small coal

boiler and all of these fireworks are

probably excessive for such a small

achievement also before we proceed into

heating that boiler up we should get a

reliable source of water to do that we

have planted a rubber three farm that

will also be useful later on once we use

our freshly collected resin to make a

water tank we can start talking about

their real dilemma what's the fanciest

places for our tank and I think that we

can momentarily place it in this corner

and it turn turn out that this was not a

good place just look at how slowly the

water is building up but just by moving

it by a couple of blocks the Water

Production goes almost 10 times faster

now that we have water we can pipe it to

our boiler to start producing

Steam and while it heats up we can work

on our first steam machine an alloy

smelter and our first alloy is going to

be the one overhyped and overrated by by

the guide book red alloy and right now

its only usage is

pistons and the first thing I would like

to do with these is aerator to double

our

ORS however due to the diamond

requirement its Quest is locked by the

bronze tools

Quest since that sounds annoying we

shall skip that and make an or find a

wand then we locate some coal and insert

it into our material detector

now we go take a walk until our newly

acquired 6 cents for coal doesn't warn

us we verify that this is the calcified

coal we need and then we start digging

towards it and we will be greeted by

small diamond deposits while on our way

to the bigger vein if you are lucky you

can get four diamonds out of just one of

these small ORS but I had no luck after

digging all the way to the big hes we

find out that our pick M these but it is

no time to panic yet we can trade some

of the coins we got from the quests for

a diamond or that we should have used to

locate the vein then we cook it to get a

diamond which we can add to our pickaxe

to increase its mining level and it

turns out that this didn't work now we

can't banic and as you probably know the

reason why we Panic is that now we have

to make a smeltery without a Mercator

but that turned out not to be a big deal

too we can actually use the stained clay

we find on kenyons and mountains even

with a

mortar the real Annoying part is usually

the part where we have to do craftings

using buckets doing three stacks of

grout that way would be

daunting to avoid having to do this that

way we can make a compressor and use

that for making a forestry work table

with that making bucket craft ings will

be way easier and after some more work

we have finally completed our smeltery

to make it work we need some lava

however carrying a lava bucket with our

bare hands is going to hurt us to avoid

getting hurt we need a pair of gloves

and freshly made ones feel weird when

firstly worn or maybe since these are

not working properly the reason why they

felt weird is that we are wearing these

in the wrong

way and now we can finally power our

smeltery the first thing we shall smelt

is some Stone to finish up our building

we are going to use dense plates to

speed up the process now that we have a

working smeltery we quickly make some

upgrades for our tools thus also

completing the quests that Gates the

Mercator however before this pick can

mine diamonds we have to warm it up by

digging some other stuff and and now we

can finally collect some

diamonds which we use for making our

first T doubling machine a

Mercator then we make our next machine a

forge Hammer this machine can make

plates more efficiently we get 50% more

plates than by using a crafting table

but since it uses a lot of power we are

using it just for the rare materials

such as silver and what we are crafting

with that silver is up First Solar

boiler which we shall place under the

sun to get some free steam without

having to manage any fuel and now while

our Mercator is slowly but perpetually

working we can go do some

Mining and after a lot of digging we

have all the materials for our next

Milestone a bricked blast furnace which

took more than half an hour to make

eight ingots of Steel and with these we

can unlock all sorts of quality of life

improvements the first one we shall use

is lumite which is an alloy of Steel

aluminium and obsidian to get the

obsidian we could upgrade our pick to

Steel but that would require us to also

sharpen it up or we can use

experience that is expensive so we use

our first Ingot to make a pickaxe that

can mine obsidian without further

process now we can go gather some more

obsidian with our upgrade red

[Music]

pick we can use that for making enough

alumite to finally obtain a tool Forge

and the first tool we shall Forge is a

lumber ax with this tool we can now

gather wood way faster and finally stock

up it next we make a hammer and an

excavator so that we can go mine more

efficiently and of course we need a

backpack where we can store all of these

tools and

materials but now the issue is that our

Mercator can't keep up processing all of

that

stuff and thus we shall craft a bigger

multiblock one but this bad boy seems to

be too big to fit in our machine room so

we shall make some more space and once

we have made a room expansion we can

build our first multiblock machine once

enough steam is stocked up in its power

intake we can turn it on and see that

this machine works 20 times faster than

it smaller version the issue is that it

will also use up way more power to fix

that we shall have a high press

boiler and the reason why we have chose

this kind of boiler is only that we got

it for free from a loot bag next we

shall add some Hopper and chests so that

we can better automate our

Workshop now we can feed a lot of

material to our machines and let them

process while we upgrade our hammer and

then go take some more minerals

when we come back we found out that our

Workshop need one more Improvement

better pipes and a buffer after doing

that we can upgrade our workshop with a

pinch of Steel which also applies to our

passive power generation which has now

been moved where it belongs on the roof

now if we take a peak further into our

future progression we will notice that

we are going to need a lot of Steel and

thus we shall make a second and bricked

blast furnace and we can make it share

the walls with the older one to cheap

out on building

materials but if we truly want to go

fast two blast furnaces won't be enough

we will need at least four and four

furnaces will need four times more coal

we could make an array of Co covens or

go mine some coal deposits but I think

that for our needs the best way is to

make a charcoal pile this machine will

convert a whole room of logs into

charcoal the only downside is that we

have to manually place the logs and dig

the charcoal and to make the steel

making process need less care we can

compress the charcoal into blocks which

will make 10 ingots in about 1 hour

while our steel Cooks we can go on with

our quests thus we make a nether portal

and here pitching a fire is kind of

hard once we reach the destination we

give a peek around then we remember we

forgot to bring food and some tools that

we need so we go back after the quick

break we go back to our mission which is

locating a ala vean to do so we collect

some from one of the clouds and then you

sit inside and or finder want to find a

vein of it we swiftly gather just enough

of it to complete the mission and then

we run back home and while our sulfur is

being grinded down into dust we shall

collect some raw resin from our rubber 3

Farm we extract some raw rubber out of

the resin and then use an alloy smelter

to slowly vulcanized rubber at a low

yield then we melt down again this

rubber to cover some cables which we

previously manually cut out of metal

sheets with a scissor and with these we

can make our first motor then we make

some resistors and some vacuum tubes

which we assemble into our first

electronic circuit this is electronic

but we have have no electricity so we

are going to use it to make our first

generator a steam turbine and thus we

have unlocked the first tier LV and this

is going to have quite a lot of tasks to

do which we are going to see in the next

episode bye-bye
