Yeah. I started on the xbox 360 tutorial, and immediately dug straight down, and got stuck in the hole for a while before figuring out how to place blocks. (Also, when i found a zombie mob spawner, i thought it was a baby zombie stuck in a cage. I tried to set it free, and broke it) =`)
It’s quite cool to see something like this from back then but because the game was so limited back then I would wonder how many uses you could actually find for it but it’s cool.
The reason they don't alternate at the same time is that they're actually independent -- they turn off when the plate is triggered and on when the plate times out. It'd be more obvious if you made the track a bit longer (there'd be a period when both torches were on).
Of course there are other ways, but that doesn't mean i didn't build one in 1.6.2/1.6.4 while watching the video. It's really easy to make and i called it updated because it's a little more compact and works with the current snapshot. The setup goes bl dr pr pr dr bl with a rt powering the the prs and the drs are the output bl=block;dr=detector rail; pr=powered rail;rt=redstone torch. I know there are better, quieter ways to build a clock but it was fun to do.
It's the luck of the draw that I found him on the forums and then saw his video :P It's great to have seen he and his channel grow so much though! And to have seen his beginnings, with Gen. Spaz and so on :D
Nice. Simple and compact. I have also once tried it before, but my was not this compact. I also did some memory cells using minecarts but all of them was big and ugly. Can you create usable compact memory cell using minecarts?
I'm sad that I didn't learn of Etho's videos back in alpha, stuff like this are quite interesting. Too bad jeb pathed 1.9rc6's version for 1.0.0 otherwise this would be useful again
@KahroSynetic You can use detecter rails instead of pressure plates and you can get rid of the second rail and replace the plain rails with powered rails, then power them. You could hook up the redstone torches with note blocks, and then it would still make sound
Lol fair enough xP Although that's not necessarily "The olden days of glory's birth" it is still nice to learn a new cool fact pertaining to that time period. Thankyou :D
Very interesting stuff (now that I've actually seen the video). So it's an eternal ticker? And were you just messing around with redstone for 4 minutes or so? :P
If you were to play version 0.6.2 of minecraft pe, those textures wouldn't not resemble anything like diorite, I was really bummed when they replaced it with what in I thought to be the worst texture ever for gravel. It as horrible
as of 1.6, there is the problem of old-fashioned boosters not working. however, we can wire the pressure plate to a booster track so the minecart can go the other way, the other pressure plate activates another booster track. maybe that will work.
with th sound & the flashing torches you could make like a warning for some passage when a mine cart comes by (like activate it with a detector rail before the passage and turn it off using a detector rail after the passage)
@klisterable he showed us an example of things u can do with it. and this device is made for redstone. you can for example make something switch back and forth between two things. and he was showing us how to make the redstone go up and down very compact. thats what the torches were for.
Youve never played minecraft untill youve played in the simple calm days of minecraft alpha 3 I miss the days making noob structures and mining diamond with stone pickaxes ; 3
@GerardoArwi57 Yea but with the new patch you can just use the specialised track piece with the button and gold rails to keep it going XD So it's even easier now.
![I.N "HALLUCINATION" | [Stray Kids : SKZ-PLAYER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/n5B5q1Hwt_U/mqdefault.jpg)
Etho, I think you inspired Detector Rails.
Spitting facts
It's amazing how much stuff Etho invented back in the day and even now, from The EATS Road to The Nexus
He invented the hopper timer as well.
no.
AgingbobGaming he invented BUD switches
yeah hes a pretty cleaver guy, like seriously smart
man is the nexus really 8 years old 💀
Shed a little tear when the Minecraft music started playing at 1:45
We all cry evry tim ;)
ikr
Ya
TT
Brings up memories
Hey etho, thank you for inventing stuff like this. It was the rocket engineering of my childhood.
WTF! I've never seen someone else with that profile pic!
It’s crazy how most of these comments are feeling nostalgic from like 5 years ago but I’m here in 2020 just crying my heart out
Don't you guys miss that feeling of when you first discovered Minecraft wasn't that feeling the best and I miss it a lot.😊
Me too,,, first time I spawned in and found a spawner, thought it was a ant nest, before I knew how to craft a crafting table... Ohh that was times
Those were the good moments of minecraft there wasn't nothing being add like enchant or whatsoever with stone tools breaking real quick.
I found a chest at the spawner, saved the stuff in it with a few bits of sand, and made a labyrinth of cactus so the monsters couldnt steal it
no I used wood tolls for a year then realized I can go mine for better
Yeah. I started on the xbox 360 tutorial, and immediately dug straight down, and got stuck in the hole for a while before figuring out how to place blocks. (Also, when i found a zombie mob spawner, i thought it was a baby zombie stuck in a cage. I tried to set it free, and broke it) =`)
it's amazing how genius he was even in the very beginning.
Honestly no matter how old the video and game is, it's still beautiful
still useful
back when this was advanced redstone XD
Basically the very early precise tunable Redstone Clock prototype, amazing.
Ohhh man, look at those textures and that advanced redstone! Brings back so many memories
This is the first RUclips video I ever watched and its giving me mad nostalgia
Im crying right now its make me remember what was minecraft when I discovered it ... :,)
Good old days..
Old is gold
The good old days...
It’s quite cool to see something like this from back then but because the game was so limited back then I would wonder how many uses you could actually find for it but it’s cool.
amazing what people were able to do with redstone for how little there was to it at the time
The hopper timer really reminds me of this design. I feel as if his design shown here provided some inspiration later on.
The nostalgia is STRONG right now!
Great ol' tech. I feel the same way about this as my Apple II. Remember when it was ALL new. So many questions, so much possibility!
Oh the textures and sounds. So peaceful. So effortlessly created. So HORRIBLE
Don't you just love it?
Happy 1 million etho! Glad to remember old times =D
Who cares about newton and Tesla? This right here and ethos channel in general, changed everything… so much Nostalgia
thats awesome you've made a timing device that is easy to make and ajust!
The reason they don't alternate at the same time is that they're actually independent -- they turn off when the plate is triggered and on when the plate times out. It'd be more obvious if you made the track a bit longer (there'd be a period when both torches were on).
You have created perpetual motion. Our understanding of physics must now be completely reviewed. Good going! >:(
so THIS is the cave man version of redstone repeaters :D
Wow this comment is so old
^
Bro are u alive?
Thanks, man! I wired it to dispensers and i just gotta hit a lever and I have non- stop arrows!
You are a ingenious inventor Etho! You could be a creator
the music makes me cry
Repeaters back in the day:
Redstone trail - Block with Redstone torch - Block with Redstone torch - Redstone trail
These were the days.. Love the channel man! Here since the beginning!
well creators dont necessarily have the most creative minds, they just make it and let others have the fun. :D
Detector Rails before Detector Rails. This is why EthosLab is the 5th most important person in Minecraft history
the 5th most important? who is the 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th most important people?
I miss those days :(
Thumbs up if you watchin this in 2016.
no still 27th December 2k15. Cant wait for new year.
+eenayeah i am
kjj
Hi from the future.
Hi Im in 2017 ;D So it says 1 year ago
since the dawn of minecraft he has been inventing things
Happy 1 million etho it's been a long journey for you and us
It's really weird to watch one of Etho's videos without him talking.
Aww old etho :)
don't you mean young?
idv22 true... true lol
haha well yeah, but i mean like 'Old etho' as in "back-then" etho
oh, yeah... I see what you mean. (If you think I'm being sarcastic, I am actually not being.)
***** Old Etho =2+ yrs ago
New Etho = from 2012 on
This was very helpful! Thank you so much!
Oh
10 years ago , wow
even with out a voice etho is the best commentator.
Man things were simple back then))
Of course there are other ways, but that doesn't mean i didn't build one in 1.6.2/1.6.4 while watching the video. It's really easy to make and i called it updated because it's a little more compact and works with the current snapshot. The setup goes bl dr pr pr dr bl with a rt powering the the prs and the drs are the output bl=block;dr=detector rail; pr=powered rail;rt=redstone torch. I know there are better, quieter ways to build a clock but it was fun to do.
Etho, what microphone did you use? I love the quality of your voice :)
shut up -_-
Jeez, no need to be so boring...
+- XYZinferno - I checked your vids, I think your voice quality is good enough, no need to find the mic that etho was using.
aj ipapo lol XD
- XYZinferno - =p xD
This is so relaxing for some reason...
It's the luck of the draw that I found him on the forums and then saw his video :P It's great to have seen he and his channel grow so much though! And to have seen his beginnings, with Gen. Spaz and so on :D
Nice. Simple and compact. I have also once tried it before, but my was not this compact. I also did some memory cells using minecarts but all of them was big and ugly. Can you create usable compact memory cell using minecarts?
I feel so fucking old man... :(
Ethos you are a redstone genius
I'm sad that I didn't learn of Etho's videos back in alpha, stuff like this are quite interesting. Too bad jeb pathed 1.9rc6's version for 1.0.0 otherwise this would be useful again
man i miss the old minecraft no stupid stuff like "the end" just plain old suriving, building and having fun. really do miss it
@KahroSynetic
You can use detecter rails instead of pressure plates and you can get rid of the second rail and replace the plain rails with powered rails, then power them.
You could hook up the redstone torches with note blocks, and then it would still make sound
Old Minecraft music... It makes me so blissful...
Lol fair enough xP
Although that's not necessarily "The olden days of glory's birth" it is still nice to learn a new cool fact pertaining to that time period. Thankyou :D
its nice to see ethos old videos :)
I love this music :)
Very interesting stuff (now that I've actually seen the video). So it's an eternal ticker?
And were you just messing around with redstone for 4 minutes or so? :P
bdeanzm I guess he was
This is actually pretty smart.
Yes
Thank you I will use this for my next contraption
holy shit, Etho, your old videos! I feel like an archeologist!
what a blast from the past
The Nostalgia Is Strong In This One
how about now
Okay, but nobody will mention the fact that Etho left semi-cut trees floating in mid-air instead of cutting them down entirely??
Gravel looks diorite now
Ikr.
I was also thinking that
If you were to play version 0.6.2 of minecraft pe, those textures wouldn't not resemble anything like diorite, I was really bummed when they replaced it with what in
I thought to be the worst texture ever for gravel.
It as horrible
and so the legend began
This was awesome back when Minecraft was only Alpha.
Aahhhh Alpha....and the music.....brings back memories.....
This is a masterpiece
The music at 1:45...Brings me back xD
Awwww! Cute babby etho in alpha!
can you make an tutorial how to put this thing on and off with a switch
I remember when gravel looked like that. Ahh nostalgia.
I miss the cobblestone:(
Well, I know what I was up to when Etho recorded this video. I bought Minecraft three days before he uploaded it.
How many GT between the redstone torches switching from on to off states?
Good to see you again, Gordon Freeman.
just because he didn't have a youtube account back then doesn't mean he couldn't watch the video and remember old times
as of 1.6, there is the problem of old-fashioned boosters not working. however, we can wire the pressure plate to a booster track so the minecart can go the other way, the other pressure plate activates another booster track. maybe that will work.
with th sound & the flashing torches you could make like a warning for some passage when a mine cart comes by (like activate it with a detector rail before the passage and turn it off using a detector rail after the passage)
when redstone was used to make light shows!
It was a good invention for back then.
Like if you want to bring back Old gravel Textures!
It looks like diorite, but better
+TagcastCrew lapis too please
+TagcastCrew coblestone as well
+TagcastCrew Hence, the new and improved texturepack features....you can get all these changes people
Scott Lewis Yeah but in default.
I am from the future!! You become very famous!!
I was hoping for this comment. Thank you for making my day!
The old graphics for cobblestone was the best, today cobblestone looks a little bland
Yes
Ikr I want the cobble back.
Old sound of the grass and dirt was the best!
Yeah
I thought mojang should actually make a texture pack with the old graphics to bring the nostalgic feel back, But really what's the point? Lol
Mission to watch every video #4
Oh hey
its the ultimate torture device if you locked someone in a room with it
great video. you answered so many of my questions without saying a word. (but seriously talking is good)
@klisterable he showed us an example of things u can do with it. and this device is made for redstone. you can for example make something switch back and forth between two things. and he was showing us how to make the redstone go up and down very compact. thats what the torches were for.
redstone tutorials in survival mode like a boss
Back in alpha, those were repeaters. Awsome.
Youve never played minecraft untill youve played in the simple calm days of minecraft alpha 3 I miss the days making noob structures and mining diamond with stone pickaxes ; 3
Just curious but was this made before repeaters? Because that might have been easier to make if they existed at the time lol.
lol just look at the date of the video 2010
Right haha
thumbs up if ur watching this in 2014
The joke is on you; I am watching this in 2014.98904109589041.
2015
My caf
hahaha im in 2020
@@boxtalks7994 2020
The legend was born
ight chief thats some advanced stuff
@Blufbunny I know but,
Just another question:
Will it blend?
@MrSenne12 look at the version, this was way before redstone repeters and this is one of the first "redstone clocks" introduced
can you make an updated one for 1.18
I wonder if this can be turned into some sort of little randomizer
Why does the second cart start moving when you place the first?
@GerardoArwi57 Yea but with the new patch you can just use the specialised track piece with the button and gold rails to keep it going XD So it's even easier now.
