How to get into Technical Minecraft (TMC)

Hello ladies and gentlemen got a video for you not really a tutorial but i’ve seen this question come up a lot of how can you get into technical minecraft So we are here on the syndicate smp server this is a server that i run uh and kind of the main focus here was more technical minecraft we’re playing uh with carpet mod we’re playing with auto crafting tables uh that kind of thing and um i myself as

You may have noticed from my youtube channel like to kind of do more beginner tutorial stuff when i get into my youtube stuff um we have much larger iron problems on the server like this one back here designed by nem mom that’s about 9 000 iron per hour whereas the one on

My youtube channel is about the size of the one behind me and it’s only about 300 to 400 per hour so what’s up with that well a lot of us really enjoy playing technical minecraft we also like sharing the knowledge that we have and so i wanted to give you some steps

That you can take if you wanted to start getting yourself into technical minecraft step one have fun just because you want to get an integral minecraft doesn’t mean you stop building anything or designing anything it just means that you’re going to start doing some things differently step two take

Into account that one of the things that you want to work on is thinking about how blocks items mobs other game mechanics are unique from other blocks items mobs or game mechanics step three make yourself a creative flat world for testing out all those different things you know testing out some

Contraption you’re learning or an idea you have or maybe making several iterations of a machine you’re working on designing your contraptions all that kind of stuff get yourself a creative flat world where you can save all those different things and keep a hold of those step four remember that not all

Technical minecraft has to be about farming efficiency it can just be about doing things that are fun such as a limestone elevator step five check out some resources that are available out there uh for example this series called dissecting minecraft with logical geekboy and also featuring

Methods they go through a lot of the basics of different game mechanics and redstone ticks and spawning mechanics and different things that you can go through to learn a lot about the game this series is really great it was all written back in 113 almost everything in this series

Still applies here just a lot of great information here about uh just general game mechanics that can get you started find yourself some youtube content creators that you enjoy who play technical minecraft one of my favorites is obviously a mango i’ve built a lot of his machines

But they’ll do a lot of different things they may just do some testing find different game mechanics maybe do some fun things some super useful things other things such as for example the mango’s peaceful series has been a great series it’s been amazing i’ve loved it uh but find those content creators and

That you enjoy and check out their stuff next advice would be join some discords uh there are a lot of discords out there that are getting some great information about technical minecraft not only that but a great community that’s willing to support and answer questions come up with new things that necessarily aren’t

Youtube videos um you could have things such as three-way bedrock breakers different flying machines different storage tech i would definitely recommend starting out with the scicraft discord again one of my personal favorites but then you also have things like you have the slime stone discord the storage tech discord

The techmc archive discord check out some of those discords find out which ones you love and and hang out in there just hang out with the users and and you can learn a lot from other people also on top of that maybe there will be some servers you can join

You could find another techmc server that you enjoy um not this entire list here is techmc servers that i have right now in this instance but for example the glorious smp check me out on twitch and if you are a tier 2 sub to any of

The creators of the glorious s p you can have access to it and come along and play techno minecraft with us after that if you’re still craving more content check out twitch for some awesome technical minecraft players i stream myself on twitch four days a week

Uh also my good friend the glutzerify he also streams and we’re always willing to answer some good questions in chat you know you come in the chat you’re looking for a question of hey have you heard of this machine do you know how it might work and even if we don’t have the

Answer that we can give you right away we will try and steer you in the direction of either someone who can or a different design that we do know that would accomplish the same thing but most of us technical players love to share that knowledge and so you can come

Hang out you can watch us play and ask those questions and just kind of get to know some new ideas my penultimate tip is going to be to check out the mods by massady if you are on bedrock obviously this is not an option for you these mods are for java

Most of the technical community is going to be in java although there is a bedrock tech community um those can also be found on discord as well but the massive mods that are made for java are incredible quality of life stuff things like like matica item scroller tweak

Room mini hud these are life savers like matica lets you take schematics of things and then actually bring that schematic into your world something that you’ve built in creative and gives you a block by block ghost representation of it so that you can easily recreate it in

Your world or on a lot of youtube videos for example mine uh the creator may actually give you a copy of the schematic that is for that machine or that build or something like that and so you can then download that schematic and instead of having to try and recreate it from

The video you can just bring the schematic into your creative world and look at it there my final tip would be get into technical minecraft to impress yourself i see a lot of people trying to get into it to either impress their friends or impress a content creator or impress another technical minecraft

Player and there are a lot of times you’ll come across in the community that okay maybe that design’s already been done or they’ll say hey this could be more efficient i can show you how to do it if you want and that can lead to a lot of disappointment leave yourself

With the idea that you just want to be able to impress yourself focus on you having fun in the game are you done whatever it is you like about minecraft take what you can learn from technical and use that to enhance your experience and don’t let anyone who decides to be

Toxic for that day bring you down at the end of the day minecraft is all about having fun so if you want to be an adventurer be an adventurer if you want to be a builder be a builder if you want to get into technical minecraft get into

Technical minecraft but just remember to have fun so i hope to see you all around thanks so much for checking out the video i hope this helps you out have a good one bye
