AceClown posted:Yeah they work fine in a reactor but the quest book wouldn't take the uranium, I did a cheat and delete on a couple of stacks tho so no harm done I don't think they oredict well. I can try to find the spots where it detects it in the beta and tweak it. It looks like something actually changed there. I previously would try to run yellorite through a smeltery directly, and it would smelt into odd amounts that were much lower than the yield of just using a vanilla furnace. I didn't recommend the smeltery for yellorite for that reason. Edit: I guess it's just the quest that asks for 64 ingots. I took care of it.

Hey is there actually some kind of conduit or pipe that actually can handle the steam and water throughput rates for Big Reactor turbines? My goto is tesseracts, but I was hoping not to pollute the channels in BFSR with it. I figured some pipes would also look more impressive, with some fine print explaining it would probably be easier and cheaper to use tesseracts instead.

You could just use tesseracts with private channels.

The only thing I could think of possibly working are Extra Utils Transfer Pipes but I've never used the pipes themselves, just the Transfer Nodes, which can pull massive quantities of fluids. ..or an ME system with Extra Cells fluid transfer I guess.

*takes a chomp* posted:The madpack 3 theme is "get back home!" Your quest is actually to reach the overworld. The game first starts you off in the dimensional hub, That links the different dimensions. It goes from Aether2 world, nether, candycraft, deep dark, etc etc. in each dimension there is a boss you must kill to advance to the next world. A little hint. The deep dark boss is straight out of a WoW raid. These packs have taken years to tweak and perfect. I tried this for the hell of it, but the first world, the aether, is kind of terrible - I mean it's interesting enough, but the ore is disgustingly rare and the questlog wants you to find massive amounts of the rarest possible ore on the inconveniently flying islands that are fatal if you fall from them. I found a single gravitite ore without cheating and zero continuum orbs. After cheating past that part though, Aether2's dungeon, the slider labyrinth, is one of the weirdest and most interesting things I've ever seen on minecraft - that final boss sure was something  .

And if you thought that boss was interesting, he was just a intro.  the "arena" is loving huge. You can't miss it. And he's got multiple phases.

Oh hey finally a NH update. Other people should be able to make HV machines now(I got an updated jar file early). The HV part recipes were hosed up and required materials that needed a vacuum freezer to make... despite a vacuum freezer requiring HV parts. ...oh, the new recommended version is labeled "test", and there are no patch notes in the launcher. This does not bode well. EDIT: OH BOY! It's the switch from HQM to Better Questing. McFrugal fucked around with this message at 23:03 on May 16, 2016 |

Like it looked great, very cute style, but it doesn't feel balanced or really even make sense once you really get into it. At least it was a bit of a smoother progression, the only really boring part was hunting down pigs to make the sugar factory out of candy canes and even then I overestimated how many I needed, and the Aether wood sword gives double drops which is pretty loving useful. The dungeon sucks though. The bouncy jumping puzzle in the first room misled me into thinking it would be fun, but the Pez Jelly miniboss that you have to beat like 8-10 times is incredibly dumb and there doesn't seem to be any good way to fight it, and then the King Jelly I basically just popped one of those god-buff donuts and wrecked him. Also I'm like 90% sure it wasn't supposed to have stone in it because the next chapter had a quest about getting cobblestone but stone was everywhere in the candy dimension, it seemed to generate normally while the candy equivalent (chocolate stone?) was only in large pockets. I'm in the Nether now but I'm not too impressed because the first quest, which is blocking everything else, is to build BOTH variations on a "Pickappa", which like so much of this pack is an injoke about "celebrity" Minecraft players/modders. There's literally no explanation of why it's good or why I'd want it but from what I can tell the two picks are just really high durability but can't mine anything tougher than stone/netherrack, so that doesn't seem particularly worth the 2 gold blocks and 2 iron blocks they have you hunting to spend on that. At least now that you have access to regular materials you can make a grinder though, so you can get 4x ingots per nether ore blocks. And that means I'm almost to EE so maybe the pack will finally pick up.

Given that this pack has "Veinminer on everything" turned on, this would actually be super helpful imo. build yourself a tiny cobble room or w/e and smack into the wall to expose every ore The quest book is pretty poorly thought out, and the voice acting is exactly as bad as I assumed it would be, I like the idea, though, I just don't know why it started out with the most boring 2 dimensions.

Problem is it's a completely new quest book so of course I'll have to cheat my way back to where I was in HQM. Edit: oh a new non-test update hit the launcher. Mine & Blade battlegear 2 and Tinkers Defense. What useless garbage. Dual wielding in a game that has invincibility frames longer than your normal attack rate? Yeah, sure, that's totally useful. The shields are garbage too. I even told them about this when they took a vote on it, but no, they didn't listen. McFrugal fucked around with this message at 02:07 on May 17, 2016 |

If you guys are at the nether. It's pretty wise to go straight to bedrock and start tearing away at the nether rack with the high durability picks. Lava isn't a problem with the aether healing stones. The regen pretty much negates the lava dmg. Finding diamond ore in the nether is a bitch too. The problem with candycraft and aethercraft is the dev dropped off the face of the planet while 3/4th the pack was being done. It was a bit too late for him to scratch those off the list. The madpack3 is suppose to be a lite "en mass" friendly version of madpack2. If you are finding it boring and not challenging enough, I suggest try madpack2. It's a lot more polished and a lot more "on your toes"

Well okay, so far my experience with Better Questing is less than stellar. I have to use NEI and Creative mode to cheat my way through quests as it seems the command to force quests to be completed doesn't really work. The quest is marked as complete but you can't claim the rewards. The reset command doesn't do ANYTHING. Also to use either of those commands you need the quest ID, which is only listed in the json file. There is no GUI button or function to complete quests when in edit mode, and edit mode is FULL EDIT MODE, not just cheat mode like HQM's "/hqm edit" cheaty book. Maybe I just started using the mod at the wrong time, though. The author just posted like yesterday that there's a major feature update and the mod will be buggy for a while.

So uh, it looks like Better Questing does not give modpack authors the ability to update the questbook in a pack. Once a world is made, BQ doesn't care about the json file in the config directory and exclusively uses the json file in your saves, which ALSO tracks completion data and thus can't be edited easily by copypasting sections from a new base json file. This is really really bad.

I thought I edited the save's json file properly, but nope. BQ's reaction to a bad file? Blank quest book, and it deletes basically all of your json file so you can't just fix the problem. Good thing I backed it up.

I guess this makes sense if the author wanted to avoid the quest book resetting that happens when people update HQM books, but now you can't update the book without making a new world so uhh, good job? Hey Shukaro, how's your quest replacement thingy coming along?

HQM books generally don't reset when updated. If they do, something went wrong. Also, you can easily update your BQ book by replacing your save's json file with the updated json file but that erases all your progress since a new json file won't have any progress indicators. The only way to update it while retaining progress, as far as I know, is to edit the save's json file manually. Edit: yeah, the dev confirmed this. There's no way to import progress currently, though he's thinking about adding a tool to do that later. I would suggest people stick with HQM until BQ can update its questbook without requiring lengthy user intervention. McFrugal fucked around with this message at 20:56 on May 18, 2016 |

So, I'm checking out Skyfactory 2.5. Kitchen sink skyblock, like Infinity Evolved Skyblock, but without quite so many mods - or all the "Expert Mode" crap. No IC2/BC/Forestry/Railcraft to bloat the pack. It also has Garden of Glass as well so you can mix and match your skyblock advancement. The Void World world gen us literally just you on top of a tree on top of a block of dirt, though, so I recommend using the GoG worldgen type so you have an actual starting platform. I did disable Decocraft, Hats, HatStand, Ding, and Audio Death, though. Removing the first three bought the RAM usage down by a gig and a half (why are these so goddamn RAM hungry?) Ding and Audio Death were being used to playing really terrible audio files.

I've been using them in To the Core to generate biological matter for the coal producing machines. One of them can fill most of a golden bag of holding with logs and saplings. It was all going fine until I chopped one down without full hunger saturation, and instantly starved to death. On a related note, does anyone know of a trick for getting nether stars in that pack? I could kill a wither, but the only way to get wither skeleton skulls involves using regular skeleton skulls, and there's no way I'm collecting 24 of those.

Thankfully it's a simple thing to handle as they're a different item than the normal rubber tree. As long as your Planter has all their slots filled with dirt + normal rubber trees and you have it set to not take all items, you can never inadvertently plant a sacred rubber tree.
