I've had taint creep in, kill a chicken, then had a tainted chicken attack me.

After that I started keeping my critters underground in a smaller room centered under the silverwood, just to be safe

I was fortunate to have some cows spawn early. I bred them until I had a thriving cow population. Then one day after mining I returned to the surface and my cow pen was full of beef and leather and one tainted cow. :(

God I love Blightfall :allears:


Been playing Refuge today and enjoying it. It disappoints me that it doesn't deliver on "OH GOD THERE ARE METEORS OUTSIDE" but I'm really enjoying playing with Magical Crops and Agricraft, and the way various sections of the lab have opened after you complete something is really cool, as is the abandoned feeling of the place and the fact that I have to reclaim my new rooms from mobs and mob spawners. Someone earlier in thread said that it was super grindy - I'm not having that experience, though there is a quest that's named something like "no more grinding!" that points you to the Extra Utilities watering can (and accuses people who wanted it of being whiny :rolleyes:), and this modpack would be horrendous without it, but is pretty cool with it. Watering Cans are a bit slower than bonemeal and I don't think you can use them on trees (not sure though), but they seem to be infinite use and sprinkle in a 3x3 AOE, so they do a really good job of speeding along crop growth.

I'm also not excessively far into the mod, so don't quote me on it if it turns into "submit 100k wood" later on :shrug:


Refuge could use some more work, but it's got promise imo. I'm really, really digging the way the lab has opened up as I've done stuff so far.

You can use it on saplings, it speeds it up a bit.

Just spent ~45 minutes in creative with V1 Blightfall, just flying around and checking things out. Some stuff I can confirm:

- The reactor on the ship I mentioned? Not only is it set up to run, it actually is fueled. If you can get to the top of the ship a controller is up there along with a spot you can take power from.
- There are a couple of meteors on the map, which is kind of neat.
- Was not expecting the rock-tower hellscape to the north. :stare:
- Or the awesome floating city. Holy poo poo.
- The tiny boat with a silverwood tree growing in it is silly but also kind of neat.
- The spaceship is way the gently caress far away from the island. Yes, I did fly the entire distance. Regret.

Basically the entire area southwest of the floating city. Maybe it's just me and the thing I have about heights, but those towers freak me out.

:stare: wait, WHAT? A floating city?! I thought I 100% blightfalls release map! The most trippy thing I remember is the floating rock formations that were "supported" by glowstone. :allears:

This is the music I've got so far for Blightfall, more recommendations are welcome, I'll make sure to update this post if anything is suggested!

Dark Ambient Playlist by Atrium Carceri.

My good stuff:
X-2 specifically Restless Andromeda and Deep Waters. The rest of the X franchise should have other winners too.
From what I've heard so far (Dark Ambient Space Music) Simon Wilkinson should be solid.
Eldritch's OST is good, but its not all on youtube! :( R'lyeh Bandcamp for the rest.

The rest:
Starcraft's Zerg themes from all releases.
The Tiberium Wasteland ambience in Tiberium Wars & Kane's Wrath.
XCOM: Enemy Within, Terror from the Deep and Apocalypse's music should fit better.
Ironically enough, the various Blight themed music from Wildstar should be good.

Welp, now you have something to look for in 2.0. It's in 1.0, and that version is still, for the time being, up on Technic.

It is a really big file. Even with my good internet, it took a couple minutes for me to download that one file.

Now that you're here, I'll badger you with tech support questions. Will the game work OK for multiplayer if I just open a singleplayer game to LAN? Or should I use the server download?

If there's not room for it to grow that can happen yeah. That's pretty normal minecraft vanilla behavior, though.
