Rocko Bonaparte posted:That makes me sad. Personally, what do you use bees for and how long does it take you to set things up for it? I don't use bees when I can help it. Vanilla forestry bees produce nothing of note, and the effort required to make any resource-producing special bees from other mods is usually not worth the rate of production. Magic bees were of some use in TC3 but we're past that I think.

I'm trying to install FxFix for Buildcraft 3.4.3 (Mindcrack on 1.4.7), but the only download link I've been able to find is broken. Anyone here happen to have a copy or mirror kicking around?

Blood Moons are The Devil. They always come up when I'm in the middle of working on a technical project. Then some skeleton shows up outside the base, firing rockets everywhere. It puts a hole near a door, and something starts beating me up while I'm at a crafting table. Then I go to the hole and find a pile of monsters. An archer always hits a creeper, who responds by turning around an exploding, taking out a bunch of my wall. Then they rush in, kill me, and send me to spawn, naked, during a Blood Moon. There I get killed again. Then I go back in creative mode, but not before getting hit by a poisonous infernal mob. I get all my stuff squared away, set it to day, then go to survival mode. The poison then kills me. If I were playing some kind of Robinson Crusoe-esque survival game and not trying to learn tech and magic, it would be almost fun, but it's just driving me insane. I'm torn to just remove it, or go nuts and surround my base with grinders or some random defensive system that some mod probably has.

Or use obsidian or hardened glass for your walls.

Yeah I feel like I should do some of this stuff, but I think my most particular problem is with the skeletons that are show up during a Blood Moon that are firing rockets everywhere. I think I'll turn off mob griefing and get most of the relief I want. I'm in a more exposed position in this game than normal because I could not know up front what I needed to do all the new stuff with which I'm experimenting (Ars Magica 2 and eventually Botania). So I have a walled-off fortress in a bay, where I'd normally be digging down with some modest surface structure, or I'd be crawling into a redwood.

I just have a quick mod question: what is the name of the mod that allows you to somehow click on an item and it shows you the crafting recipe for said item? I've seen the youtube PopularMMOs guy use it and it seems pretty slick; especially for mods with lots of new craftable items that I can never seem to find recipes for. Is it universal, or does it work with only a select set of mods?

I started a new new new game to try out the hermit idea with the Random Things spectre dimension. The trick for ectoplasm is to find one of the many overworld dungeons and just bop away at the mobs. When a spirit appears, it will be contained in the dungeon so you can nail it. I will also confirm tue vyroxenes as an early-game material does work quite well. You have to cast the portal, and make a netherreck pickaxe to get it. Then you have an obsidian-level tool and a matching armor kit from a very common resource.

Currently playing FTB Monster. Just wondering what the best way to go about making a remote controlled floodgate would be? Basically, I want to be able to turn a lavafall on and off from about 100 blocks away, without a physical connection between the switch and gate. Are there any non-ridiculously-expensive or complicated ways to do that?

Aside from being a shittier Shadow Iron that you can enchant a little better, it doesn't offer much at all considering Vyroxerese is so plentiful. Is there some corner-case use of it I'm missing, or is it just misplaced?

I don't know any mods that inherently lets you do this without some form of physical connection or wiring, but there's a pretty clever remote redstone signal mechanic in this video that might work for you. It even works across dimensions! Aside from that, I think you should be able to get it working using tesseracts and gated bc pipes, but I don't know the specifics of that one.

Oh boy, the Natural Magic modpack has the hard-mode Thaumcraft, with the puzzle to do research. There's no way I can switch it to the non-puzzle version myself, is there? I think I can live if there isn't, the puzzles aren't actually too bad if you've got a cheat-sheet to know what the aspects are made of, but I'd just prefer not to have to fuss through it.

Isnt that just normal thaumcraft, where you have to know the elements and make the research. Also they are easy to work out, also how to connect as unless they are prime elements you hover over and it shows the 2 elements its made of so Alienis is Vacuous + Tenebrae, so will link to any other element with Vacuous or Tenebrae so it will connect to Famis (Victus + Vacuous), or precantio (Vacuous + potentia) for example.

Alright, so I think something happened when I made the world, because I just made a second copy of the same seed and it has a normal BOP nether, while my current one is just straight up vanilla nether. It's been a long-rear end time since I ever needed something of its ilk, but I recall there being a mod or program that let you edit and copy/paste areas and chunks from one save into another. Anyone know what I'm talking about, and is there a currently working version of it? I'd rather not lose my farm, orchard, home base, etc but want to use the same world.

Overworld steel is very good, and you just don't get anything really similar from what I see until Quicksilver. It's pretty hard to pull out Mithril, let alone find it, so it's usually only worth it if you got a bunch while mining for something else. Edit: I guess Ignatius dust can be used as a fuel. At least according to this spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/ccc?key=0ApPr023YHYR0dEQ1X2JNOHgteUFRRGtFMlo0ZUQxN2c&usp=drive_web#gid=0 Heh, and apparently Midasium turns any dust into gold.

Captain Invictus posted:gently caress. I think I accidentally made the world I've been using without actually having the BOP worldgen enabled, that's why. So there's no fixing it, I guess. I was fooled into thinking BOP was enabled in the overworld because of underground biomes, fruit trees, etc. spawning on Extreme Hills biomes and having the biomes be so huge I didn't really notice there weren't more than the standard ones. drat it. No world editing tool then, I take it? You could probably use an NBT editing tool to enable BoP worldgen in your existing world and then new terrain from then on would use BoP biomes, but you'd almost certainly get the cliff-face discontinuities between old and new terrain. (If you want to try it anyway, use something like NBTExplorer to open level.dat, open the Data node, and set the 'generatorName' value to BIOMESOP)
