[Suggestion] CCTV

1st Official Post

    I would like to see a CCTV in IC2 or as an addon to IC2 (really I'd be happy with it being available in general, but IC2 seems like a good place for it). There is a CCTV addon on the minecraft forums that is a perfect example of what I want. However it hasn't been updated since 1.1 I don't think.

    the yogscast just spotlighted a tv mod you should check it out

    true balance is impossible in video games the best one can hope for is to make it really hard to guess which of 2 choices are better.

    Wow people like their TV's...
    Guess what I have? A REAL TV!
    All fakeraging aside this would probrobly consume a hellot of CPU power to make a emulated TV in what is basically a emulated reality...

    Well the intent wasn't really for it to watch shows and whatnot. The intent is sort of like a security camera, or so you could remotely monitor an area. A camera and tv, the tv displays what the camera is pointed at.

    The tv mod only plays videos. Thaumcraft contains no such cctv-like abilities, and portal mod is for portals, yes it displays a remote area but it's less than ideal.

    thaumcraft portals display like portal mod but lets you cycle through your destination from 1 portal and as a result the area you are monitoring. also ic2 is smp no mod that has cctv like function has ever been smp compatible
