The crystals and stuff aren't so bad really, you just make them as soon as you find the materials and then they grow while you're farming, mining, etc. They don't despawn and I can definitely find 20m to waste during the early part of the game before I have the power requirements necessary to realistically run an ae2 setup. That said, definitely also don't feel bad about cheating them in/changing recipes.

The whole crystal growing thing is certainly... A choice they made. It doesn't really bother me other than having to flick my magnet off when I get to the surface, it's just sorta a bizarre change to make from 1.12

It will absolutely never stop being the most creepy looking poo poo when people animate minecraft models with full range of movement and with non-pixelated mouths that have depth. How did this become a persistent aesthetic among minecraft youtube stuff.

I think it's about the best you can possibly do to "enhance" minecraft's extremely basic character design while keeping the general style.

So I've been craving some modded Minecraft lately and I keep thinking about this launcher/modpack I played a lot in like 2012... It was an absolute chaotic mess of mods that added tons of dungeons and creatures that would appear as you explored, and it also had a ton of crafting mods like that thaumaturgy one. It even had stuff that was crazy at the time like being able to spawn workers who would mine for you. Maybe it was Technik? Anyway I know a lot has changed but is there a pack with a similar all-inclusive balls to the wall feel? It was definitely a mess but it was really fun finding endless amounts of weird content on a new map and just getting lost in all of it.

Black Pants posted:Hey so after the feedback of my space station pack and after failing to solve some issues that frustrated me, I decided that I had to start over and made a new station with a different design philosophy to better alleviate the problems I was having. This also included a revamped questline and a more refined progression especially on the tech side. Just shilling this one more time because I think I've fixed all the existing problems it had. At least based on feedback given so far. But I'm happy with it and work is continuing.

I asked this earlier but I'm still having a problem with AE2 integrating with the microverse projectors in Nomifactory. Having messed with things a bit, I still run into situations where the I'm missing ingredients in the input buses. The buses have the room and the recipes have all the ingredients. I'm also using ME cables and not ME conduits. I've tried the facial interfaces as well as the block interfaces. Nothing so far has affected it. The Discord didn't have anything to say. What I'm trying now is spacing the input buses out from each other and having one recipe per interface per input bus. When I cancel the recipe, I'll just lose stuff like tier seven micro miners that were part of the process. Where the hell do they go? Shipon posted:Hoo boy just entered the creative tank era in Nomifactory, time to completely rethink my base Just slapped on more floors -- especially when you get that creative RF cell. I'd probably be mostly done here if it weren't for all my mining missions clogging up and losing a pile of miners and advanced components into the void when I cancel the job.

prediction: the post 1.16 mod era is going to gradually lose ground to Fabric and the next mod golden age will be on Fabric. It looks like the way Fabric works makes it a ton easier to port between versions, which is probably the silver bullet

They're making impressive headway, but still working towards a stable Fabric release for 1.18 and the 0.5 update for both Forge and Fabric so I think a 1.19 release might be a ways away.

I built my projectors in pairs with a single interface connecting the two input busses and a single interface 2 blocks away connecting the two output busses, and had this issue until I realized I forgot to turn on blocking mode.

Ash Rose posted:is the teleported supposed to work? I cannot find my way to the damaged section. The quest log indicates that you have to go outside to get to it. You'll need to leave the safe confines of the station and find your way to the other part of the station. I suggest trying to make sure you do it in daylight hours as I tried to do it at night the first time.

Bhodi posted:This really feels like you may have missed turning on blocking mode on your interface that's connected to the input bus of the microuniverse projector. That's the logical conclusion but I had tried it both ways. I started with the recipes blocking but then also tried with it off on some notion that maybe these multi-stack, multi-cell recipes were aborting mid-insertion because something was already in the inventory. Somebody on Discord suggested putting a chest on the interface and sending that to the input and that ultimately worked. Whatever the build of Nomifactory I am using just cocks up on ME interfaces connecting directly to MV input buses.

I haven't played Minecraft in years, the last time was when Technic was a big thing and I played a lot of that with my buddies. We're thinking of starting again, but I loaded up a random modpack using the loader that seems to be the popular one now and was pretty put off by achievements popping up constantly and some really out of place looking monsters and buildings. What would be the pack to use if I want a mostly vanilla-ish Minecraft experience, with maybe a few updates (minimap ain't so bad) and some technical stuff like generators, electricity, etc? Some bonus explorable worlds like the Nether to explore would also be cool, I just don't want to be super overwhelmed by an unrecognizable experience right from the start.

I'm trying the pack out, too, and I've hooked the power back up but some of the vents won't work no matter what I do. It's like they're not getting enough air? They have enough power. edit: oh, of course, as soon as I post about it I tried picking up and re-placing a vent and it started working. edit2: I think the trick is you break it, place it, and then turn redstone control off? Then the vent starts working after like 5 seconds of waiting. McFrugal fucked around with this message at 03:00 on Jun 11, 2022 |

Most packs these days all seem to be big bunches of everything someone can jam into them at once. I feel smaller-scale stuff doesn't really get made any more and you're most likely going to just have to bundle some mods together yourself for the experience you're looking for. Of course, this really hurts with the discoverability of new things, too since you really only can pull stuff you already know about, right? Modded is kind of in a rough spot right now if you're looking for something that's on the scale of like 30 or less mods and not 200+.

I hadn't played Minecraft since like 2011 or so and ended up with https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/valhelsia-enhanced-vanilla as the one pack that seemed understandable to me, looked pretty ootb, and didn't crash when I tried to load it. I have no idea where everything Minecraft has added over the last decade ends and the mod begins but I'm enjoying it as an exploration focused player. I do think it's probably too heavy for what you want with it's rpg stuff but I had a similar quandary and no interest in figuring out my own mod stuff.

Simple Magnets, just cheat a gold magnet into your inventory and activate it, then place it in your backpack, and it'll eliminate tedious running-around-and-picking-everything-up nonsense. Farmer's Delight is great for the moment since Pam's Harvestcraft hasn't updated to recent versions of minecraft yet, I like that you can make a cutting board, then have to manually cut up things, but are rewarded with more efficient food for the tedium of having to place a piece of food and then switch to the knife to cut it and repeat. Biomes o Plenty has been a crucial standby for increasing world variety for me since basically they first released it, and it's still great today.

Ok, two problems: 1, the dead leaf blocks on the preplaced dead trees don't decay. 2, if you place the Pure Daisy directly into the floor of the tree room so it converts blocks into dirt, and leave it there to convert those new dirt blocks into grass, it won't work. The pure daisy pops the dirt into... more dirt, which then never grows grass on it if you leave it be. It seems only dirt I place myself is converted properly into grass by the flower, but the dirt blocks resulting from the first conversion do allow grass to spread onto it. A metadata problem, maybe? I wish I had more than one pure daisy to start with, to speed along creation of dirt. The dead wood conversion is less important since dead saplings grow oak wood. edit: wait, what? I misunderstood whatever's going on in #2.  The two 3x3 areas (that one block sticking out is fine) of dirt blocks just... won't allow grass on them, even if I replace the dirt with fresh blocks.

These seem cool, but I imagine it'd be lot harder to get my friends to download a bunch of mods piecemeal rather than just being able to point to a single modpack where I can just say "Just download that and connect" . Unless you can download mods directly from a server now? I haven't played in such a long time I'm not sure if it's gotten any easier to host a modded server.

for me it was literally install curseforge -> click links, automatically downloads and adds them to a corresponding snapshot(in my case, 1.81 since some mods have yet to be updated to 1.82 and beyond). no need to gently caress around with jar files etc, just click and it'll do it for you, takes like 5 minutes if you've got all the links at the ready.

If you want to do things a bit more automatically you could walk your friends through setting up an instance in curse (or some other launcher) and then throw a zip file with all the mods in it at them so they don't need to manually find and click on all the mods.

Maybe the problem just... went away?
