President Ark posted:does BFSR have any machines that can pull bodies of liquid out of the world and into containers/machines/tanks/etc Haven't played it, but looking at the modlist, try the Mekanism 'pump'. Requires pretty low power, should be pretty easily made if the recipe hasn't been tweaked. It's finicky about which side is power (usually gets placed facing away from you) and which is the pump (top) but it works pretty well once it gets going if you get past the original placement.

Um, is there a minecraft mod that does kinda what Mystcraft does, except it puts you straight up in a new Minecraft world without having to "create" the world through pages and stuff? Basically I want to start a new map, but still have access to all my stuff in my one save, and I dont know how to use MC Edit to like, bring that chunk over - and I dont really want to straight up start over or have to use NEI to try and spawn in items that I used to have. Mainly because I had a big Pams Harvestcraft farm, and a cow farm and I dont really want to have to re-build all of that. I have BiomesXL, Highlands, and BiomesOplenty and I like BiomesOPLenty's biomes more than BiomesXL - I selected BiomesOplenty in the world creation and spawned in a vanilla field and started building but as I am exploring, Im not spawning any BiomesOpently biomes, which I wanted to move my base to, and just teleport back and forth for my farm stuff. I would just start a new world if i could easily teleport to and from my old one.

Meskhenet posted:cant you get a sword with 100% beheading? Maybe, theoretically. I'd have to level a sword up a hell of a lot to get enough modifier slots though. Maybe I can figure out which materials are easy to level up. Fighting skeletons at melee range is a nightmare anyway. Maybe I should try and find/build a spawner.

Anyone doing SkyFactory 2.5 know what machine/mod to use to auto harvest & replant Magic Crops? I know from listening to Wyld's development that some of the mods don't work with it, intentionally.voltcatfish posted:I'm assuming 1.9 is not a version to have if I want to mod the gently caress out of this game? If you get the FTB launcher, it automatically uses the proper version of Minecraft for the modpack you select. It's very painless. And yes, 1.9 was such a dramatic change in back-end stuff that most mods have not caught up with it yet.

Devoyniche posted:Um, is there a minecraft mod that does kinda what Mystcraft does, except it puts you straight up in a new Minecraft world without having to "create" the world through pages and stuff? RFTools is a more intuitive and tech alternative to Mystcraft, but I'm not sure if it can generate a world identical to the Overworld and you'd have to spawn in the required dimlets. You could probably do some save file fuckery to replace The End or Nether with your Overworld temporarily and then generate a new Overworld. What I'd do is not MCEdit but WorldEdit. It's a tiny mod you slap into your mods folder that adds a ton of useful chunk and block handling commands and I add it to all modpacks I play. First make sure cheats are on, which you can open to LAN in the menu and turn cheats on that way or NBTExplorer your savefile, then use "//wand" with those double slashes and an open hand to get a Wooden Axe which WorldEdit gives special powers. Left click one corner of the area you want to copy with the axe, right click the opposite corner, "//expand vert" to expand your selection to bedrock and the sky or alternatively you can left click a bottom corner and a top corner if you don't want to copy all the dirt and stone and bedrock but this usually requires building a scaffolding around the area. You should be getting text feedback from the mod in the chat window for all these commands. Now that you've got the area selected, "//copy" puts it in a virtual clipboard and remembers where you were in relation to the selection when you copied it, "//schematic save poopbutts" to save the clipboard to a file so you can load it later. DO NOT DELETE YOUR SAVE YET. If you wanted to keep your save and only wipe and regen the overworld then just delete the overworld save files (I have no idea where these are in singleplayer, I'm sorry. hopefully someone else can chime in. please make a backup) at this point and load the save back up to generate your new overworld and then follow the instructions below the next paragraph. If you instead wanted to start an entirely new save, do so. Don't forget to copy over your Thaumcraft progress and such to the new save. Find where you want to paste and use "//schematic load poopbutts" and "//paste" and it'll dump it with the same relative location to you as when you copied it and the same rotation relative to the world. Now you can delete the old save if you want to, but there's no harm keeping it around for a while to make sure you got your Thaumcraft and AM2 progress and everything copied over. http://wiki.sk89q.com/wiki/WorldEdit/Selection http://wiki.sk89q.com/wiki/WorldEdit/Clipboard Those two links go over the commands I've listed and more detail of how they work and also instruct you on more accurate selections or rotating the copy before pasting. This is all done with the wooden axe and through chat commands so there's no real visual feedback on your selection or anything. There is a mod out there that extends WorldEdit to show selections but I don't believe it's by the same people and I've never tried it. I've used this to copy my entire area between saves with a very very similar set of mods and it stores everything inside your chests though sometimes they'll seem to explode but should still be properly saved and copies complex entities like golems just fine. It does not do well with multiblock structures such as Thaumcraft Infusion Altars, you'll have to completely bust those up and rebuild them. If you use the rotate functions it doesn't actually rotate the blocks themselves, just moves them to where they should be in the new rotation, so you'll end up with backwards signs and stuff but it's all fairly straightforward to break and replace. Good luck. e: a dozen edits for tons of clarification and wording and fixing confusing use of the word "world" and straight up wrong information I'm dumb today Sloane fucked around with this message at 00:26 on May 20, 2016 |

Wolfsbane posted: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. In case anyone else has the same problem, the solution is that cursed earth spawns wither skeletons. I found this out by building a cursed earth spawner in order to produce mob essence to power the skeleton spawner I built first.

Well you can put a normal skeleton spawner (ie, via a diamond dolly in Jabba, via a translocator (blood magic) or whatever your preferred method is) into the nether and it'll spawn mostly wither skeletons. In my current world my spawner does occasionally make a wither skeleton despite being in the overworld, and part of it has cursed earth, but I don't feel like (low numbers) it's doing it anywhere remotely near 'often' based on the drops. (It's my laziest/worst spawner I've ever made, since it's just cursed earth + a bunch of dolly'd monster spawners for skeletons, spiders, and zombies)

A regular skeleton spawner in the Nether will produce mostly wither skeletons, but a few regulars. If you have diamond dollies, cardboard foxes, translocators, etc. or even Draconic Evolution you'll be good.

I know from listening to Wyld's development that some of the mods don't work with it, intentionally. I think, really thinking here that it was the ender io farm station that i planted my magic crops on. BUT, if it was, i went into the config files and changed a few things. (I changed so that they werent uprooted at harvest, i changed that they gave a seed 100% of the time, and i changed that they stopped causing damage when walked over.) As for getting all the ender stuff, my mob farm gave me pretty much unlimited alloys. And i got the mega rubber tree from a bag and planted it (not knowing what a clusterfuck that would be) I have a question though. Nearly every game i play, as soon as i turn on my MRF harvester i get lag.. is there any way to stop that?

Hey so if anyone is still looking for timesink modpacks, you might want to look up this thing called Divergence: Beyond Reality on the ATLauncher. It's apparently an attempt at making a "realism" modpack that also has loads of crazy poo poo in it and tries to strike a balance somewhere between Gregtech and TerrafirmaCraft. Like many packs it seems grindy and a lot of basic mechanics are slowed down (unsupported rocks crumble, carrying weight limit, normal tools don't mine so you need TiCon, and a kind of tech-research feature), but it also has a lot of really interesting and unique upsides to it. Some highlights:
My biggest complaint so far is that it runs like crap on my machine but at this point I'm used to painfully low framerates in Minecraft.

There needs to be a launcher launcher, so that all the different launchers can be launched from a single place! I will give this divergence one a go for a bit and see. (after i dl the launcher and the pack)

Sounds pretty cool but what's up with ATLauncher? I use MultiMC and tend to download modpacks off github or curse's website if possible but then I encountered some things only on Technic so I had to install that launcher and then likewise for FTB so I had to install that launcher and now I find ATLauncher is still in use and Curse is maybe doing a launcher? Aaaagh. As for the low framerates, I've seen you around this thread a lot so you might already know about them but I run Fastcraft and BetterFPS because OptiFine was actually lowering my performance and the really big thing that completely removed lag and stuttering for me was turning mipmapping off. I keep wanting to get into Immersive Engineering but I always seem to find some other preferred way to do something. It also cuts my FPS in half when I'm near an area with a lot of IE wires.

Glory of Arioch posted:an MFR spawner works with it set to an EXACT copy of a safari netted wither skeleton Yeah this is by far my preferred way of getting wither skeletons. If you make a good spawner room with an MFR Grinder in front of it, it will spit out easily enough mob essence to supply a spawner making wither skeletons. It's really nice!

Vib Rib posted:lot of basic mechanics are slowed down (unsupported rocks crumble, carrying weight limit, normal tools don't mine so you need TiCon, and a kind of tech-research feature) This isn't a slow down thing, it's a "stop using vanilla tools you dingus" feature. Forcing people to use TiCon tools is like making someone stop hitting themselves in the face. Source: first time I encountered TiCon I refused to use it because it seemed too hard, then my friend handed me a Cobalt Hammer with Repair 3 and as much Fortune as possible on it and a pair of Haste-maxed gloves and told me to stop being a moron and use real people tools. I basically won't play non-TiCon packs anymore because it's such a better system than vanilla tools. Honestly, vanilla should integrate TiCon toolmaking as a standard feature because it is 1000% better than vanilla tools. Tinker's Construct is probably my favorite mod in existence at this point.

Magres posted:Balance problems are readily fixable in a game like Minecraft, bad mechanics aren't. Having an interesting, modular tool system is so much better than vanilla tools. The current Minecraft mechanics aren't bad, unless you consider tools breaking entirely to be bad (and, well, I don't know what to say to that), particularly with the changes to enchanting introduced in 1.8. Meanwhile, Tinker's doesn't work with the system, it completely ignores it and uses the ever-favorite system of dumping stacks of resources into things for improvements (which I do consider to be a bad mechanic in general). Tinker's weapons, in particular, are extremely strong, particularly in ranged, even with just standard materials and not stuff from ExtraTiC. Other mod weapons only are useful in comparison if they have a unique ability (basically just the Terra Blade and it's variants, in other words). There are very few mod tools that can match or beat Tinker's tools, and they require typically much more investment in time, infrastructure, or risk (high rank Terra Shattered, aka A rank or better, requires insane amounts of Mana, and the Bound tools from Blood Magic require either you being drat careful about your soul network - or you risk death). Tinker's tools are extremely easy to make and upgrade to ridiculously good stats. They require the barest level of infrastructure and use stacks of common materials to be upgraded (lapis, redstone, and quartz are all easy to gather in large quantities). In another game, I'd be all over them - I generally like the design and implementation - but they don't fit with Minecraft in general and 99% of the time, if TiC is in a pack, other tools and weapons simply don't exist.

Doing quests causes the doors in the temple thing to open, and clicking on the chair inside unlocks recipes, which is how you get all the basic stuff like tinkers tools and the mining gear. Beyond that there's some sort of research system, but I couldn't seem to make it do anything.

I agree I think, I much prefer having a wide variety of materials to make tools out of. The problem with Minecraft really is that it has its tiers, and that's it. Sure enchantments add a bit, but even including mods you typically just get higher tiers or electric things. What I'd really personally like to see, is something more like Dwarf Fortress, where materials are really really spread out, but vary much more. Like, say you're in an area with a lot of silver, but not much iron. It'd be much better for you to make heavy blunt weapons than slashing weapons like swords. You'd have two-handers that swing slower but like heavy sharp materials. Things like that, where what you have access to defines your playstyle, not simply gating your access. Unfortunately since so many mods, and minecraft itself, are so reliant on that iron -> diamond progression I don't think this will really ever happen. Alloys and ticon are a nice simulation, but everything boils down to the same strong weapons with the same things slapped on them.
