Rocko Bonaparte posted:Yeah this stuff does seem to scratch an itch. I've wanted that block swapper for a while. The only alternative was the wand of equal trade or whatever it is in Thaumcraft, which involves getting at least a little into it in order to make and use. Then inevitably it can't be powered sufficiently to do the amount of swapping somebody needs. I think the concern people had was being able to swap ores for junk blocks. It would lead to some fast mining, and if the tool didn't care about mining levels, it would be the defacto mining tool. In a PvP environment, I can see the builder's wand being somewhat exploitable. If somebody can get cobblegen up and has a builder's wand, they can start encasing everything. But most of the time, I think the server admins just leave a stash of them out for people. Try the exchanger from endertech, it's amazing

 So hey, everyone's been going on about packs to play for a while and saying the old OP is out of date as hell. So with that being in mind, after two entire weekends of work on modpack, solder, server and otherwise setup, I'd like to announce the OMP Suite!  OMP ihttp://www.technicpack.net/modpack/omp-i.598014  OMP TerraFirmaReloadedhttp://www.technicpack.net/modpack/omp-terrafirmareloaded.598409  OMP Sigma 2http://www.technicpack.net/modpack/omp-new-sigma.599164 Pages have mod lists thanks to solder. All packs are fully solder-enabled, and have config work/minetweaker work done! That means: -No more duplicate ores! -Oregen changed! -Battletower loot isn't poo poo! -Much More! There's a thread for these packs and the servers associated with:http://forums.somethingawful.com/showthread.php?threadid=3703438 Hope you all enjoy playing!

Turns out the absolute best way to mine EVERYTHING in blightfall is to make a wand of equal trade. it ignores things like hardness values so you can mine everything with it.

That seems fair, its abit of alchemy to get one of them now. Not a mammoth effort but certainly the most effort pre-infusion foci. So has anyone being using Ars Magica 2 and keeping it upto date? Whats your thoughts on it?

I have the same  issue with AM2 that I do with Blood Magic: the huge, ugly, mandatory multiblock structures that can't really be hidden and are drat near impossible to integrate sensibly with regular buildings. Anecdotally, it's also one of the most unstable mods I've ever used.

It is a bit buggy, but my family and I are enjoying it. it's nice that not everyone has exactly the same identical spells as the next and you can share your experiments with others, even if they haven't done the research. The Armour Imbuement is a nice touch, if you don't have alternate (or even if you do, since not all of them replicate current enchantments) methods of enchanting your armour to avoid the stupid Minecraft Enchantment RNG. It's really great for early game digging and light (torch) placement. Never run out of torches while spelunking again!

His swerving around at least meant that it landed safely in the ocean, instead of falling back onto the launchpad situated next to a number of machines and their reactor.

I don't know which pack you're referring to, but you probably need a flint or bone pickaxe to mine copper. Then you need to get a zombie head to upgrade the tool to mine tin (or was it iron next?) or level up the tool until it gains a bonus mining level. Iguanatweaks' hardcore setting is pretty rough. Also, uh GUYS. I have just made a startling discovery. Hungry nodes can be converted to Tainted nodes... at which point they can be energized. This makes them the best, assuming you can get ahold of a tainted node so you can put it above/under the hungry node to convert the biome and eventually the node (jar a node, unjar it in a tainted land to make one?) or just transplant the hungry node into a tainted land and hope it doesn't degrade into a faded node when you transplant it a second time.

I just got into a rut with RFTools. I'm trying to make a dimension with a few biomes, a bunch of molten metal lakes, but everything else pretty much normal. Every time I go through, I get a little bit through, before I suddenly just get a bunch of poison/wither/everything effects and just die. The sky goes black too. I go into cheat mode and try to advance the day, but all I see is the sun going overhead in a black sky. I believe this means the dimension is running out of power, but when I check the dimension template in the builder, it has maximum charge. Is there something I'm missing? Another question: Is there a guide to making a 1.7.10 mod pack for local testing that doesn't involve watching a YouTube video of a 13-year-old stammering through it?

How do you move the hungry node? Doesn't it just destroy the blocks as you try to place them to build the jar around it?

Magical Crops is surprisingly powerful for how easy it is to get set up. Preferably, you want the powersuit armor with the fist and defoliate ability so you get a bunch of essence seeds, you farm them for a day or so until you're getting hundreds of thousands of essence, then you can pretty much farm any resource at all without lifting a finger. Just realised I can pretty much run a nether star generator forever without much effort. The only reason I'd want to is for mining lasers though, but magical crops make them pointless (unless you're playing on a big server and hate lag, I guess) so I'm not sure what to do with all the power. Any ideas? Either way, my next run will be a "no quarries" run. I'm really loving magical crops. Regret not trying them ages ago. Edit: Out of curiosity, do sprinklers stack with lilypads of fertility? Does anything? I have nothing but lilypads of fertility under my farms, but if I can add more stuff that will further accelerate growth, I might as well.

Place obsidian around the node with wood slabs on top, then equal trade it into glass. With a bit of luck it won't eat any of the glass before you hit the completed jar shape with your wand to activate it. Make sure all the obsidian is exposed to air(or the slabs) or else part of it won't convert. If it does eat one or more glass blocks you can try to keep filling in the holes either by hand or with a builder's wand. SugarAddict posted:Blightfall crashed when trying to use a thaumic enchanter.

So I'm having a problem with Tekkit. Started all of a sudden. I was playing fine 13 hours ago, went to sleep, woke up, did some other gaming, and when I was trying to start Tekkit, it just hangs on "Installing Minecraft Assets…" for 10 - 15 seconds, before I get an error message saying: "An error was raised while attempting to read pack info for modpack tekkitmain, build 1.2.9f: connect timed out". Does that mean that Tekkit is down, or is the problem on my end? Win 7, newest version of 64-bit java, set to run Tekkit with 2 GB RAM et cetera. Also, huge pastebin of todays techniclog: http://pastebin.com/iJbuAiiJ Which I don't understand too much of. Mostly because of the size, and that I don't know too much about the language.

Is mcedit still the best program for deleting problematic chunks or mod blocks? I've got one specific area (centered on a generated Stonehenge type stone circle with a dispenser in a pond in the middle, don't know what mod added that or if it's vanilla) that causes the server to lockup without saving whenever anyone comes near*. I'm hoping that deleting a few surrounding chunks will fix it. Kicking the can down the road until another freezing structure is found. *At least this means no one has gotten stuck by it yet since the slight rollback leaves them somewhere else

I've been trying to make a hammer and it doesn't appear to look at the hammer ends, just the head and the handle durability at creation, so I've made a paper handle once and tried to replace it later and it not work. I've also tried to add a modifier using a diamond and a gold block but I think those are disabled.

Tsubasa2004 posted:They should stack. So do agricraft sprinklers, thaumcraft lamps of growth, and if you water a lilypad with a watering can the effects multiply. Extra utils sprinklers sadly don't work on Magic Crops, as they apply the bonemeal effect at random which doesn't work on magicrops, same deal with MFR fertilizers. Lamps of growth and lilypads instead accelerate the tick rate on the plants so they have more chances to grow in the same time window, the watering can works the same way, so watering the lilypad, accelrates the lilypad ticks, which in turn accelrates the plants even further. Time torches and any other tick rate accelerators also work (not sure about agricraft sprinklers) and stack If you want a crazy turbo farm, autonomous activators with reinforced watering cans mounted under 5x5 farms are probably the fastest way im aware of, but if you don't fancy sacrificing your health bar permanently and making octuple compressed cobble, then a bed of lilypads with dirt over the top, covered with one of the light emitting glass types, is pretty drat good, im not sure if it works out better or worse than sacrificing the space for lamps of growth as i'm not that far into TC yet. I have this set up to pretty much produce everything in our current game, via 4 11x11 farms, at a decent clip wtih an ME system regulating it. If anyones interested in how to set it up and such I can post pics later when I'm not phone posting. Similarly I had set up a flood harvesting system for the basic essence crops as using water to break them means you get the extra weak essence and nature essence drops that you wouldnt with a machine based system. It's pretty straightforward to set up and just needs a redstone timer of some sort, basic hoppers (or any other way of grabbing items from water channels) and dispensers with water buckets.
