(though my current portal to the nether sucks. I seem to be on some sort of floating island above a sea of lava, which means no way for me to get out at the moment.)

Every 8 blocks in either x or z direction corresponds to 1 block in the Nether. Thus if you want to move 1024 blocks in the minecraft world proper, you would only need to travel a mere 128 blocks in the Nether. Of course the nether portal linking is a crazy mess, especially in multiplayer servers. You're better off establishing end nodes in the Nether if you want to come out at the correct portal.

So apparently OptiFine is pure evil or broken or something like that and I shouldn't use it? But more importantly, it makes Skyblocks and other assorted things flicker horribly, so I think I should get rid of it, despite enjoying the options it gives me to control. The problem is when I don't have it installed, the font I have looks really weird for some reason. With OptiFine, the text looks like this:  But without OptiFine it looks like this:  This text also applies to WAILA making the popup windows huge, and UI elements, etc. Is there any way to not have that awful looking font without OptiFine, and also have things like Connected Textures/Natural Textures and so on?

Heres a thing i whipped up in a lazy minute for fellow Thaumcraft 5'ers who are doing research legit: Oh and, he unfucked the research system. Similar minigame, but each sheet gets its own aspect pool to draw from. Failing just means scrapping that note and making another, refreshing the pool. Failure costs paper and ink, that's it. This means no searching for research aspects. No using deconstruction table and praying for ordo. No loving scanning to know what makes what or combining things to learn how grass works. Completing research gives XP, which is also spent on certain unlocks, such as the hungry chest. You still need to scan things to make research discoveries, such as Iron Golems for Golemancy. E: Also heres a list for 1.8.9 if people want to get in on this, search for them on Not Enough Mods. Alt-F4, extra furnaces that have some features, yet to try it. ChunkLoaderZ, because theres no alteratives, plus it'll give me incentive to find the 1.8 ocean temples. Harvest, right click to harvest and replant, simple. InventoryTweaks Ironchest JustEnoughItems, NEI but different. Its good enough but NEI has spoiled me for the cheaty bar on the left. JEIAddons, Get for Thaumcraft intergration and more. Journeymap, because its the only map currently. JustEnoughResources, it adds dungeon loot and all that to JEI. ProjectE, because its always nice to have a quick way to create rare materials. Make regular save backups! RoguelikeDungeons, somewhere to stomp around and a place to build Thaumcraft Tristram as your first base is the best. Thaumcraft. ThaumicInfusion, yet to try it, but being able to infuse stones to do funky stuff sounds rad. Veinminer. Waila. Thyrork fucked around with this message at 14:02 on Jan 19, 2016 |

Hey Rocko Bonaparte, thank you so much for your modpack. It's been incredibly useful for me and my friends to wrap our heads around the technical mods - I built my first nuclear reactor the other day and it was a great sense of accomplishment  I have a problem and I'm not sure whether the problem lies in your modpack specifically, or in the technic launcher or what. Every time I generate a new single-player map in your world, I end up with fragments from the same map I generated on a previous world, complete with map waypoints I'd set in those previous games and everything. Deleting the world doesn't change it - while the area around my fresh spawn is new, I still see death waypoints and whole landmasses from previous worlds. A clean install fixed the problem, until I deleted the world and created a new one, where I had areas from that previous world hanging around again.

I've experienced the same thing when generating worlds with the same name. Instead of removing the entire modpack just removing the saved settings for that (the mini-map mod, journeymap or whatever) should help.

A few questions about pipes for moving items in FTB: Infinity Evolved: I did my first experimenting using one of the visible types of pipe that show the items moving through them, but I had some trouble wrangling the connections to chest and machine outputs, and I discovered the EnderIO Item Conduits were so much easier to configure and attach to things. And with speed upgrades they can move serious quantities of items. Are there any applications where other item pipes outperformed EnderIO Item Conduits - aside from wanting to eyeball the pretty items moving through the pipe?

Vib Rib posted:I actually think this is way worse. Tell me the book at least lets you know what you need to scan, because with hundreds of blocks and entities to sift through, the alternative is sorting through every single scan anyway. Missing scans of certain items -- especially ones I had to make via Thaumcraft anyway -- is what eventually stopped my research progress in Blightfall anyway. I think the only weirdly specific thing you have to scan is the vanilla iron golem (to unlock golems) everything else is just poo poo you'll get around to scanning anyway. For example if you scan one type of wood you've scanned them all because the only pre-requisite is obtaining knowledge of the aspects.

If you hold the Thaumometer, things that can be scanned have little question marks floating on them. These correspond to one of two things - an aspect (to gain "practical knowledge" of it, which I am not sure what that means, honestly) or a clue to a hidden research (like iron golems and the golemancy tab). You only have to scan a few things, overall.

Odd man out I might be, but modded Minecraft is not a game I play to explore the world and find things; it's to do silly things with people or build machines (Thaumcraft /Botania /etc stuff included) that would make Escher cry tears of blood if he saw them Other than that though yeah I think the new research system is better, especially considering the reduced/simplified compound aspects making it much easier to just wing it given your supply of primals per note

The rest I don't mind. This is easily the least obnoxious research system yet, and if you find research fragments, they can be used to give extra primal when doing research.

These folders store all the waypoint and saved map data for worlds, so if you're starting anew, it's easier to just delete that folder. That way you won't have to clean install in the future.

Hey, so after we installed Dynmap and Sampler, we've been getting lots of TPS and block lag. I'm pretty sure it's dynmap, so I'm wondering if there's any way to reduce its strain on the server any. Also, as of this afternoon, our server has been periodically crashing. Here's a pastebin of the latest crash log. Can someone please help me decipher it and fix the mess? Also, and this is far less important, we keep getting "[Server thread/WARN]: Skipping Entity with id" in the console. It happens maybe once every minute and a half to two minutes. I only really started noticing it since we installed dynmap/Storage Drawers/Sampler, but might have started after we installed Malisis Doors prior to those other mods. Googling around tells me that something is trying to spawn an entity with a specific ID, but since that entity doesn't exist, it skips it. However, this isn't giving me an ID to follow, so I don't know what to do. neogeo0823 fucked around with this message at 04:27 on Jan 20, 2016 |

For Galactic Science, is it worth trying to automate production and distribution of Methyl Methacrylate or should I just stick to sucking up water en masse and pruning off the Hydrogen? The ratios involved in making the former (5 C, 9 H, 2 O) are more than a little awkward and are giving me SpaceChem flashbacks in how to deal with it efficiently. Needing three Synthesizers (methyl ion, final product, gravel) isn't nice either because I don't have Iron to spare while I'm trying desperately to scrape together enough to build this goddamn rocket, and then I have to make sure the Decomposer can keep up with having to take the logs and then the cellulose. Logs -> Cellulose -> Base elements (C6:H10:O5) -> some ridiculous sorting system involving barrels, Space Bins and rationing pipes? -> Synth 1 making 3*Methyl, Synth 2 adding C2O2 -> Fuel Storage -> Distribution to Generators -> ALL THE POWER. It's like running a self-sustaining 3x Mekanism setup only 5000 times more irritating. The thing is that while it's so much more efficient than just burning off Hydrogen, it's such a pain in the rear end when the alternative is so much easier. Four fluid transfer nodes around a 3x3 pool of water with the oxygen venting into Bin 2.0 would work just as well but it feels cheap and dirty. PS: if I get Paul as a reward one more loving time I'm going to murder them all out of spite, useless vanity self-inserts as rewards are the absolute loving worst.

You're better off automating buckets of lava instead because the production chain does not require power at all. Crucibles over lava and eventually that stupid ore leading into an Ender I/O tank. Feed that with empty buckets, extract full ones and send them to a wall of Stirling generators because Galactic Science likes being a dick about teching up.

So uh, is it cheating to get myself a steel pick head solely for that blightfall quest if I make something able to mine stuff it could mine? I mean I ended up making damascus steel and then found platinum so the idea of making the drat thing at this point is a little pointless. Also kind of having a pain trying to work out how to make an invisibility potion for a magic quest in it. Netherwort is required, right?
