I know this is probably common knowledge but man TAN heat system sucks. I guess my base is in a Savannah but it might as well be the surface of the sun since I can't even get out of the water for five seconds to do anything at all. I turned the biome temp modifier from 10 to 5 and that seems to have fixed it. It seems pretty ludicrous that every heat mitigation tech requires an ice biome.

Does the TAN heat system not permit the player to utilize evaporative cooling? Since that's generally how people stayed alive in hot climates before the advent of A/C.

I mean that's exactly what it should be. You can basically only go into the water to cool down (there's an AC thing and slime armor that cools you but both require ice cubes which can't be gathered from anywhere but cold biomes) There should be like a bandana or something you can wear to cool down.

It's cool to have to do some little things instead of just building big techno-magical wizard towers every time. It just seems like the mod itself should have some kind of way to mitigate heat so that any hot biome isn't the surface of the sun for 100% of the daylight hours.

It just seems like the mod itself should have some kind of way to mitigate heat so that any hot biome isn't the surface of the sun for 100% of the daylight hours. TAN's default configuration is ridiculously, insanely punishing. There's a very narrow range of comfortable temperature values - something like -10 to +18 - but the temperature changes from other items skew towards warming you up over keeping you cool. It's really poorly balanced by default and needs some very careful tweaking to be at all reasonable.

There are loving EVOKER spawners in some of the underwater dungeons in Rustic Waters, what the gently caress Also dying damages EVERY ITEM YOU'RE CARRYING, not just your equipment. Looks like 40% of max durability. Plus you lose all your exp, it's not like keepinventory. ...well, I finally progressed far enough to find a merchant village. There are some interesting trades but everything is quite expensive, ranging from 100-1000 for most things, but WAY more for some of the hardest to get items. This should be fine except I can't see any way to sell items to them? There are no repeatable quests in the questbook to make money so I don't know how this is supposed to work. I guess I'll have to make 64 "assorted farm goods" so that I can see the other quests in the economy questline. Hopefully there's a block that I can shove items into and get money out of. BIG PROTIP: don't try to make an infuser first, the power cells craft fully charged. The energetic infuser requires a blaze rod, which you can either get by finding a nether fort and killing blazes (good luck finding a fort without any easy way of traversing the nether) or by turning sulfur into blaze powder and compressing the powder into a rod... or you can just buy some from a merchant.

Don't forget the rats though, you can make pretty beefy warrior rats to bring with you. There's a little 4 block modular machine you make to sell your farm goods. I have 12 farms of 10/10/10 seeds with 8 sprinklers each, harvested with autousers and picked up by pearled hoppers into an ender chest. That ender chest dumps into autocrafters to make the farm goods then into set of compacters then into the selling machine. Previous to getting the farm set up I grabbed 9 golem spawners from dungeons and made a mob farm from them. You can turn the bricks they drop into farm goods.

Vib Rib posted:Oh boy. 96 sprinklers in parallel, huh? I was really hoping this wasn't one of those modpacks where you need dozens and dozens of the same things going on side by side to meet production quotas. I didn't NEED it but I wanted to see how far I could push the setup before it started getting backed up. I had to have 2 fully speed upgraded compactors to keep up with the first step of compacting. I don't think I spent much until way later and my golem farm was enough to buy upgrades here and there when I needed them. The drawer void upgrades were the only things that really hurt not having easy access to. One guy in the Discord went the other way and did heavy farming early and spent his way through the pack instead of crafting when the option was available.

Okay, apparently the Rustic Waters modpack update problems are caused by a file somewhere in there that's set to read-only. So locate the folder(rightclick the modpack and click Open Folder), rightclick it, click Properties, and uncheck the read-only box. Click OK or Apply and tell it to apply that to all subfolders and files.

Also, belatedly re TAN, if you fully enclose your living space and use cooling/heating coils placed around, you can easily manage temperature while at home, but you really gotta prepare for going outside. The mod utterly baffled and frustrated me the first time I played Forever Stranded but when I made an enclosed base in my second playthrough it didn't really give me any trouble at all. And then by the time I really needed to venture out much I had the powered temperature regulator thing which essentially just turns the mod off while it's powered.

It's one again time for me to poke at Minecraft modpacks! I'm looking for something that has a quest system that leads to some ultimate goal, so I always know what I should be trying to accomplish. (Not just a bunch of 'do this to get a prize' quests.) It should have a minimum of tedium; I don't want to spend ten minutes holding down the mouse button, hammering on the mouse button, or waiting impatiently for a reason to touch the mouse button. I'm not looking for 'realism' or 'hardcore' or other buzzwords that generally mean a million steps to accomplish anything. I like making devices that I can feed raw materials into and get cool things out of, and I don't want to have to wait long to do so. While I'm not averse to combat, I don't want to have to kill a million billion mobs or defeat the giant invisible teleporting laser-eyed creeper. Last, but not least, my machine's an older one, with only 8 GB RAM, so the pack shouldn't be too crammed full of mods. Any suggestions?

There are not very many modpacks that lead to some neat end goal. If you haven't played Blightfall, I suggest that. If you want something newer, check out Enigmatica 2. I've only ever played the expert version, but I'm pretty sure the standard pack includes a ton of quests and leads to creating a few creative blocks. Depending on how grindy you want to get, you may also want to check out Skyfactory 3 or 4, Project Ozone 2 reloaded, or Stoneblock.

As for skyblock mods, I have a fear of falling that sometimes translates into video games - the key factors are 'first-person game' and 'can be killed by falls' - so of those, the only one I particularly liked was Stoneblock 2.

I modified FTB Ultimate Reloaded in Twitch by adding a few additional mods and changing out the map mod and have it just the way me and a few friends want it. I’ve exported my Twitch profile for it and it works for everyone, but the default export didn’t include whatever was necessary for the custom main menu to render properly (it’s all just pink and purple placeholders). Does anyone know what else I need to export to fix this? E: I figured this out. Needed to include the Resources folder with the profile.

I discovered that I may be illiterate. In my current play through of Enigmatica 2 Expert I was looking at my Mekanism Induction Matrix and noticed that I was gaining way less power than I should be. I look in the next room over of my base where my four IC2 "no heat" reactors are sitting. Except there are now only 3 reactors and the back wall has been blown out. The difference between a meltdown and everything being fine was me forgetting to craft my "Heat Exchanger" into "Component Heat Exchanger". Having that single part being wrong turned my reactor from being fine to melting down in a couple minutes. It is a good thing I still built my reactors inside reinforced stone and glass even though there was supposed to be no chance of them melting down. Note, "no chance" only applies if you build them correctly.

My only experience with reactors has been with Baby’s First Space Race where they can’t meltdown. I remember reading something in the quest book that the mod doesn’t support it. Of course that pack is 1.7 and now that I hear about meltdowns I just stopped myself from building one in Enigmatica 2.

Of course that pack is 1.7 and now that I hear about meltdowns I just stopped myself from building one in Enigmatica 2. Well, reactors are fine as long as you copy exactly what the design is. IIRC IC2 reactors have different categories (i.e. Mark) that their setups fall under. A properly setup Mark I reactor can be setup to run indefinitely and that is the design I'm using. It is when you start using Mark II or higher designs that you need to deal with timing that turns the reactor off for a cooldown period. Depending on the pack you're playing, in this case Enigmatica 2, there are usually safer options for power that have no risk of anything being broken. Mekanism's Gas-Burning Generators are not that hard to setup. My setup was a Compact Storage Drawer (Melons via Garden Cloche) that pipes into the Crusher. The Crusher, PRC, and Separator are all placed next to each other since they can output the necessary item/gasses required. I then use pipes to pump Ethylene to three generators. To be honest, in a pack like Enigmatica 2, IC2 reactors aren't something you even need for power. Mekanism allows you to use its cables for EU instead of dealing with IC2s EU requirements, and an extreme reactor is going to safely output more power than an IC2 one.

As far as big reactors go, I'm partial to the Rainbow Generator! from EU2. It's kind of a pain to set up, but once you do you can generate 25 million RF a tick. Also! I'm trying to remember the name of a modpack I played once that I might want to pick back up again. It involved progressing through a bunch of different mods' tech trees, often with interlinking bits. You were given some useful tools fairly early on, like an ore scanner, and the quest tree was big and interlinked. I know it wasn't SevTech Ages - it didn't start you at caveman era, and nothing was actually hidden from you at the start - but it definitely had some modified recipes to make you use all your tech options. It also pretty much made you start with Immersive Engineering, though it also had the usual tech mod suspects. Any ideas which one I'm thinking of?
