So I'm super casual and just got bit by a Minecraft bug recently and pretty much rely on Technic exclusively to play cool Minecraft mods but pretty much everything I care to try except Tekkit is refusing to actually run. I'm mostly looking for a more fantasy/magic leaning pack but Hexxit and Hexxit Revisited are just opening Minecraft, hanging, and closing back down to the launcher.

Anyone got hot tips for Tinker's smeltery automation in SevTech (age 3)? Things that I feel like should be working are not and I'm not sure if it's because of a rules change in the modpack.

StealthArcher posted:Liquid hoppers work well enough, just make sure to check all the settings and be aware running multiples will screw up. Nice, I didn't even know about this thing. Took a little jankery to get it plugged in right (input faces me when I put it down?? sure ok) and I had some fear it was a lossy process but 21 blocks of gold went in and 21 blocks of gold came out.

I prefer the mod that lets you grab poo poo if you have both hands empty so you're just sprinting through the world holding a spawner over your head while screaming the only thing that would make it better is if the spawner kept spawning poo poo

A couple friends of mine that haven't really gone in on modded minecraft (but have played similar stuff) are looking to take a crack at it and I'm trying to hunt down a good modpack and looking for some suggestions. Mostly something relatively crunchy (but not gregtech-level nonsense) with quest progression and dangerous mobs that are maybe a bit more aggressive about coming at your poo poo so you have to build defensively. In lieu of that right now I'm thinking Sevtech, which feels like the top-of-the-line progression-based pack that I know of.

I can't say for sure what mod improvements would slot in for Regrowth, but there's just a lot of little QoL that I feel in 1.12 that I miss in 1.7. I haven't played a 1.7 thing in ages though so I can't list it out.

OniPanda posted:After bouncing off a couple quest packs, I've found I really like Break Out. Started playing this after OniPanda mentioned it - is there any way to automate the wooden crucibles? I stuck a hoppered bonsai on a chest and stuck that on a hopper above a wooden crucible and that's not doing anything.

Cool update: when I didnt place the hoppers like q child playing with his first legos it worked It's a little clunky, the hoppers still suck up the wood/sticks/apples and need to be cleared out periodically

Oh, no, they're hopping bonsais. The hoppers are on buffer crates because I didn't want the wood/sticks/apples to just vanish into the aether. I'm sure putting a regular bonsai on a hopper will do nothing, since regular bonsais need interaction. The bonsais themselves are way more of a pain in the rear end than the hopping conversion.

i think the big standout of just how much of TF is really just eating your time to a disrespectful degree is the thorn wall. you don't really need to do it because i'm pretty sure that castle still isn't a thing yet but i remember spending like an hour burning thorns slowly just looking for a way into the drat thing at all it's all just way too extravagant once you hit the carminite tower (also it's pretty funny to base a whole thing on a mineral i'm pretty sure has no actual use)

sevtech age 0 and 1 are easily the worst parts that i've seen also i outright refuse to engage with shoggoths at all to be honest. like i'm not gonna defend all that because any pack putting in abyssalcraft as a mandatory step is outright loving up as far as i'm concerned

i think the abyssalcraft mod maker keeps doing stuff to make the shoggoths worse and worse to deal with and cutting out any creativity involved i think they can't break their lair blocks but the moment they're unable to escape a place they just go back in the muck and despawn? there's some nonsense somewhere about it

McFrugal posted:Oh hey there's a beta update for Sevtech out that nerfs shadow mobs and shoggoths, and increases the spawn rate of shoggoth lairs (as in, more lairs). Notably, Shoggoths can't destroy blocks or items anymore, so you can use plain cobble to wall off their lairs again. Their spit would normally destroy cobble and anything else of comparable material hardness(or did it just ignore non-vanilla blocks?) What's the usual timeframe on a beta update going to release? It's really funny to me that SevTech pushed its first update in, what, half a year? Right after I started playing with a friend of mine (his first minecrafting ever, much less modded) and right now we're standing outside a Darklands ready to die. Is the beta stable enough that we might as well go for that?

what really fucks me up about abyssalcraft is that so much work and care was put into making the mod do a whole bunch of cool poo poo and then actually doing any of that cool poo poo is the worst possible experience like it's so well done except for any amount of the game design, which is dog poo poo

graynull posted:Just picked up Minecraft for the first time and immediately started some basic modding. I'm pretty used to extensive Skyrim modding so this hasn't been too bad. Seems like I jumped in at a strange time though. Looks like 1.14 is the newest version but a lot of things have not been updated yet, and I could only get 1.12.2 of Forge to run properly (failed library downloads despite my best efforts with 1.13). Even so, seems like 1.12.2 should work alright for an initial run. I basically just grabbed some textures and optifine with a shader preset. I did immediately grab a mod to make chopping down trees more sensible. My inner Terraria nerd could not handle the floating trees and trying to climb my way up to get rid of all the wood/leaves. minecraft modders tend to stay on a version for a long while before picking up and moving in a mass to another one like the big one before 1.12.2 was 1.7 i wouldn't expect modders to substantially move to a new version for a while

the latest project ozone is pretty good at guiding you through the mods though there's no story to speak of i didn't really get pneumaticraft at all before running through the PO stuff. the only problem is you'll be in the middle of figuring something out and then a material requirement throws you to another mod

speaking of blightfall i forgot how much the thaumcraft essentia pipe system gives me a stroke why is it so hard to just hook the thaumatorium up to accept five jars to cook balanced shards, like i feel like there's some crucial thing i'm overlooking EDIT: i pulled it apart and put it back together the original way i had it that wasn't working and it just kind of worked this time. cool cool good. DOUBLE EDIT: it made three more shards and broke again   TRIPLE EDIT: duh, valves Q-Q-QUADRA EDIT: IT STOPPED AGAIN COME ON Patware fucked around with this message at 08:05 on May 15, 2019 |

The hookup technically works, it will produce the shards, but it will also mysteriously jam I've got a golem on my alembics, will another one operate the thaumatorium properly? I never tried putting one on it

Vib Rib posted:FTB:Interactions question. With the absolute safety of the Sky Dimension, the growing (and eventually block-breaking) threats in the Overworld, and the ubiquity of teleporters, would it be a smart move to make a permanent base in the sky, and just use the Overworld for mining expeditions/resource gathering? If not for the loading screen between them I think it might be an easier decision, but I might be missing something obvious. As far as I can tell the only reason to move is load times and being tired of dealing with a sky map (the latter is the reason I started setting up in the Overworld ASAP even if it ends up harder, I just don't like being in a skyblock if I have an alternative) to further FTB:I, is there any way to automate this drat clay kiln so i can get charcoal blocks without wanting to die
