Hmm somebody just asked on Technic if BFSR has a resource pack. I never really put any thought into that. I really never even used a resource pack myself for anything.

Is there a good single-purpose 1.7.10 mod that adds a crafting table w/ an inventory, preferably a sided inventory that can be piped into?

There's Sampler (linked in the FastCraft section under "Extra tweaks/tips, Sampler 1.58") which works best when both the client and server have the mod. Similar to Opis, but not as good.

Did you use the MobiusCore-1.2.5-KC3.jar that StealthArcher posted in your Disasterpiece Theater thread? I've used an older Opis/MobiusCore on the Modderation: Permabanned/FYAD servers and while I eventually time out when using Opis, I can get some data out of it. It works best when you have a less latent and faster connection (e.g. LAN instead of WAN) to the server.

For server maps, I believe almost everyone uses Dynmap for Forge. I have it directly host the servers from the Minecraft server itself, but you can also use nginx/apache/whatever to host the files elsewhere as long as you can sync the web data.

EDIT: Also CoFH has commands that can help track down issues, such as cofh tps to see what dimensions (say if you're using Mystcraft or RFTools) are using up the most ticks.

I have some notes I posted for Modderation (and NST before that) which can help your server and your players, if you want. The Java flags seem to help my clients and servers, but I never did gather any formal metrics to prove it. ;) Don't give your Java instance (server or client) too much memory as then Java's Garbage Collection (GC) just has more work to do, more often, which causes latency spikes. More memory on your server itself is good for file caching. Having drives with fast write IOP/s is good, especially when generating chunks; Minecraft loves to write data. Often.

I did in fact use that very version of MobiusCore, but it crashed the server before it could even generate a report every time. This is why I can't post logs, unless you know of a different way to get them. I'll check out Sampler and Dynmap this weekend and see how they work out. We host the server through Akliz, so I'm not sure how to add the java args to the that, but I can definitely give people directions on how to add them to their client.

Someone forked it and maintains an updated version for 1.7

https://github.com/UniversalLP/XACT/releases

It takes a lot of the pain out of crafting and allows semi-automated crafting at a pretty early stage in the game, which is really nice. Also simplifies repeated crafting of sub components i.e. AE cells or TE servos.

An alternative: Steve's Workshop allows you to autocraft, consolidate up to four tables/furnaces with their own independent inventories, and upgrade your worktable in various ways. I've just messed around with it a little, but it's handy and single-purpose.

When using NEI on a server that has Mekanism, is there a way to make it stop showing the thousand (exaggeration) different possible things you can stick in Mekanism portable tanks? I just want it to show one portable tank, empty; this would make it so the mekanism category would fit on one page instead of three.

There's an air transfer thingy that works the other way so I'm guessing you can attach it to your automated alchemy thingy and have it draw from jars at a distance as it needs it; I haven't actually tried it yet, personally, I might go into creative real quick just to check

And also does anyone know why NEI item filtering is completely greyed out on OMPi but not on Disasterpiece Theater. I asked a couple pages ago but I guess either noone saw it or noone knew why. There's gotta be a rational explanation besides 'lol that's just OMPi', right?
OMPi left vs DPT right


I checked the config but nothing stood out.

While we're thinking about Disasterpiece Theater, I go Dynmap working, but the web browser shows a blank black dimension whenever you visit it. If you hover the mouse to open the right hand menu, then you can select the overworld surface map and display that just fine. What do I change in the config files to make it display that view automatically every time someone visits the link to look at the server?

XACT is a bit buggy. Its inventory seems to lose sync with the client sometimes. I've had a phantom stack of 57 plastic sheets for a while. Also would be nice if there were a way to interact with the chip case while in the crafter interface? Nice concept to it, though, so I'll put up with it.

NO THAT'S NOT ME!!

Ok, Dynmap's giving me a serious headache. The configs are impenetrable and the documentation reads like stereo instructions from the late 80s. We have a bunch of dimensions, and we want renders for all the "standard" ones, like the Overworld, The End, the Nether, Twilight Forest, the witchery ones, etc., but NOT for the random RFTools dims people have been creating. I don't know how I did it, but I somehow caused Dynmap to delete every dimension entry except The End and the Nether. After loving with it all afternoon, I'm pretty frustrated at it. Can someone please tell me what I need to do to fix this?

Here's the Forgeworlds.yml file. It did have all the dimensions listed in it until I changed something. After it cleared the list, I added an entry for the Overworld, but then it was deleted on server restart.

Here's the Configuration.txt file. No clue what most of this poo poo means.

And finally, here's the Worlds.txt file. I don't think I changed any of this, but hey, I don't even know anymore.


Nevermind, I got some help from a couple goons on the server. The map is now displaying all the needed dimensions, thank god.

Technic is the easiest.

https://technicpack.zendesk.com/hc/en-us/articles/204199345-How-to-make-a-Minecraft-modpack

Basically you install forge, rename the jar put it in /bin and add your /mods and /config to a zip file. Then you just put that in your public dropbox(or host it somewhere) and tell technic where it is.

Well before I updated to Windows 10 everything ran fine. Now Hexxit crashes on startup with a "bad video drivers" message, everything from later minecraft just crashes without a message.

Right now the technic forums are down or something, but they said this meant I needed to update my video card drivers. And they are very out of date, they're intel hd graphics drivers that are version 9.17.10.4229, but updating from device manager or windows updater says they're up to date. Which leaves the possibility that I need to just unistall the drivers and re-update but that hasn't worked either.

Have you tried downloading the driver manually (64 bit/32 bit) and installing it? The update check in device manager is worthless.

It can run out? :v:

I suppose if it gets to be a problem I can look into that aura manipulation section in thaumaturgy, I guess that has stuff to pull from/push to surrounding chunks

I think the only realistic option for industrial levels of flux management is finding an area with 2 or more pure nodes and using totems to pull flux into the nodes chunks. If you are constantly adding flux to thr aura through the alembic and thr infernal furnace you will eventually pollute the poo poo out of your area.

Another complimentary solution is to plant flux crystal clusters to absorb it.

IN regrowth, what are my options for a fast rail system?

At the moment, blaze rail is by far the cheapest to make, but it is slow as hell. (6 blaze rods and a stick)

Im looking for something like vanilla rail with redstone torches.

(im finding i have to travel now, it will be much easier to build a rail out to where im going and zoom back.)
