On Natura crafting benches you can't do things like the middle mouse button press to distribute items evenly, that's the most annoying problem I've had with it.

Big smelteries are also useful for melting / casting lots of stuff at once. I really like TiC clear glass, so once I'm rolling in grout ingredients I usually build a 4x4x4 smeltery with multiple drains & basins since it's so slow to melt / cast.

I used to do this, but now I use the EnderIO Alloy Smelter for quite clear glass, if I'm making mass quantities that is.

The thing about breaking an IC2 machine getting you a machine block gets better. If you used a wrench, that didn't mean you got the machine back. It meant you probably got the machine back. There was a chance, I think 10%, that you'd get a machine block anyway. Due to people complaining about this, the electric wrench was given a lossless mode that was guaranteed to get you back the machine block, but it used so much power that you could only do it once, then you had to recharge your wrench.

Why? Because gently caress you, that's why.

And of course lossless mode was off by default, so you had to remember to turn it on first! ATLauncher hangs when it gets to the splash screen. Any ideas?

How does anyone play with any given modpack for any length of time? I've been using Direwolf20's FTB pack on the grounds that it must by definition be well-supported, and the recent update to it somehow broke my world such that my framerate goes to single digits if I'm within 100m of my base. I tried rolling back to the previous version of the mod but somehow all of my backups pick up from right after I loaded the world with the new version of the modpack which I don't understand at all how that happened.

This is like the twentieth time some version of this has happened to me -- everything's going along fine, I make the mistake of making a suggested update, and suddenly a couple of months' worth of stuff is lost. I'm the sucker for believing the thing when it told me it was backing stuff up, I guess.

Stick to goon made modpacks? At least then if something goes wrong you can yell at them in this thread!

AS2 has a couple other wrinkles as well, all mobs are hostile for instance, so if you have a well-lit patch of grass sitting around, be ready to fight the randomly spawning chickens and pigs. All in all it's not EXTREMELY different, but moderately so, and might be worth your look.

Which is too bad, because I always thought BR was pretty cool, and I'd rather set up some cool multiblocks than figure out some gimmicky free energy thing and then have to replicate it 50x to get enough RF/t to run other dimensions/etc.

Can't you just make changes in the config file to whatever you think is more reasonable?

Are any 1.10.2 mods that change oceans at all? Add mobs, equipment, water specific anything? I was excited when I found the Mariculture mod, but disappointed to see it's 1.7 only and probably not going to be ported over.

Are lootbags safe to open, or is it just the chance cubes I have to watch out for? I started playing Project Ozone 2 with the ice world. When I made it from the template, I had a warning message about things missing?

Mr Bubbles
First night in Project Ozone 2 was a blood moon, so I turned them off in the configs so I won't be getting any more. I think it has that thing enabled where vanilla tools break after a single use, so I set up the Tinker's construct tables, and looks like I can't make any tools out of just wood. So I've got nothing to defend myself from the mobs that remain in the daytime. By the time I've dealt with them, it's night time again. At least now I've gotten enough string to make a bed, so I guess I'll just never let it be night again until I have some kind of perimeter fence set up. Will it rain in this ice world, or am I going to need some other method to get water?

Project Ozones one weakness is the rewards. If I was going to do a new play through I would tweak the Kappa Mode to gave out random rewards that allowed you to sequence break the quests, rather than a bunch of chance cubes and mostly useless decorative blocks.

I fiddled around in the files used to configure the modes and change the recipes a bit. Its all plane text, so it shouldn't be too hard to make a custom mode.

How do you know which mode it's in?

Any recommendations for 1.11 modpacks with quests that will teach you the new post 1.7 mods? Like, without adding tedious gregtechlike nerfs, or not a skyblock? I think I've had my fill of skyblocks. Ones that have resourceless worlds like regrowth or Project Ozone 2 Ice world are ok (land skyblocks?) Or is 1.11 too new and I would be better off looking for a 1.10 modpack?

I'm still getting the crash, without any resource packs loaded. Also, All the Mods 3 is disallowing the Ore Excavation mod without using an enchantment or modifier. I want to be able to use it at any time. I looked at the Ore Excavation config and it looks like it hasn't been changed there, so there must be another mod overriding it then?

Taffer beat me to plugging his baby, so I'm going to plug DPT6 at you. It's somewhat of a kitchen sink (we're at 140 mods and possibly adding more, I went into making it with the intention of keeping it under 100. A fair number of the mods are smallish QoL ones though...)

Anyway, DPT6 is a lot more freeform than 5 was and has some neat mod integrations based on scripting I stole from the previous Progress pack. We have a quest book that provides a little structure in a big world with cool landforms. Big tentpole feature mods: Immersive Engineering, Thermal Expansion, The Betweenlands, and Thaumcraft 6. Astral Sorcery shows up too.
