Oh hey there's something I've been meaning to share for a while, a new iteration of the thread is a good time to do it. Who likes the Painterly Pack? I sure do! I've been collecting what little mod support I could find for Painterly since the 1.5 days and also making my own. At first I just wanted all the ores to look good, but as time went on I started changing tree leaves, machine blocks, some armor, etc. It's culminated in this: https://www.dropbox.com/s/5g2umxo4oky7bip/Painterly%20Mod%20Support%201.7.10.zip?dl=1 This is a resource pack of mod support for most of the mods I've used between 2013 and now. If it's a well-known mod it's probably got some support in here. I can't really claim any ownership of any of this, all credit goes to kas and, secondarily, the people who tried to do this sort of thing before me. To use it, make your own Painterly pack at http://painterlypack.net then apply that resource pack and this one alongside it. There shouldn't be any conflicts; this resource pack doesn't include any minecraft assets, just mod ones. The only caveat is that everything I've cobbled together here operates under the assumption that your base Painterly Pack uses the light stone options, at least for the raw underground stone and ores. I haven't had a chance to go through and clean out any non-painterly assets yet, but I'll clean it up as time goes on. If you do try it out, let me know if you find anything weird or messed up. (edit: aside from the TE phytogenic insolator animation. I know I swapped a couple frames on that one) Fortis fucked around with this message at 18:55 on May 5, 2015 |

Acne Rain posted:Inventory pets: Instead of a pet with a bad ai and that follows you in the overworld you and ineveitably dies due to bad collision detection, you.... keep a pet in your inventory???? I found this just the other day and it's actually really cool. Each pet gives you a buff as long as they're in your hotbar, and they eat certain items in your inventory every so often (each one has a favorite food). Their durability never wears out as long as you keep their favorite food in your inventory while they're active (in the hotbar).

I discovered I was like 20 Botania updates behind and uh... is it at all possible to turn off the loving Gaia battle music? Because holy poo poo. I mean, I was probably going to replace it with my own music in a resource pack but it's so loving loud I can't believe there's no config option for it.

It could also mean that a mod you're using is trying to call the buildcraft API improperly. This poo poo happened to me all the time with Mekanism and Buildcraft/IC2's APIs. Every so often a Mekanism update would come out and freak out on load because it didn't access the BC/IC2 api properly or was using a new version that other mods weren't and all hell would break loose. At one point I actually had to include the experimental IC2 API as its own mod just to get Mekanism to stop crashing. It's one of the many reasons I stopped using Mekanism in my packs, but other mods have done it too. EnderIO famously pulled similar poo poo in late 2014 when they switched to the newest possible CoFH API before any other mod did, making their conduits straight-up just not connect to anything using the old API. Mekanism's the only one I've ever seen crash over it, though.

StealthArcher posted:Well, you used to, if he's changed that good for him i guess, though tbh I've never cheatied around it so i don't know if that's specifically a way to get around it. Oh, then it's probably only possible to have it without warp enabled if you use the cheat sheet. Don't the first bits of Eldritch research rely on getting warp? So it's not so much a "you're locked out because gently caress you" as much as it is that the starting condition for the research never triggers. Unless the Eldritch tab straight-up goes away if you have it researched but then disable warp in the configs, if that's the case then it's definitely a "gently caress you, got my vision".

I'm confident that the horseshit will be corrected by Azanor at a glacial pace, but even more confident that addon mods will spring up quickly to counteract the truly egregious horseshit. I can see it now... Ancient Thaumaturgy - Lost Technology of Days Gone By: a mod that adds an arcane alembic that holds up to 32 essentia and can be stacked and a void jar that doesn't vent into the atmosphere. That's the whole mod.

Now that Minetweaker exists (and I should hope will exist for 1.8, if it doesn't already), there's not much reason to get TOO upset about whatever bullshit Azanor throws in. You could make TC work a lot like Botania (i.e. making the ingredients uses the special infrastructure but ultimately it's all crafting) with some relatively simple recipe tweaks. TC is one of those mods where it's kind of more about the process for a lot of people than it is about the product, but for the products that are legit useful there's no reason to put up with horseshit you don't want to deal with if you don't have to. I made a crafting recipe for Boots of the Traveler, for instance. Not an Arcane Worktable one (although you could), just straight-up crafting, cause they're just that useful. Maybe it's cheap, but who gives a poo poo? It's a sandbox game, instead of letting modders enforce rules, enforce your own fun.

Is chat formatting plugins not fully working in Cauldron in 1.7.10 just A Thing? Chat names aren't being formatted on my server with their prefixes and suffixes, but announcements (like 'so-and-so is AFK') use the formatting correctly. Essentials Chat, ChatEx, and Towny chat all do this. I have no idea what the problem is. Is there a chat plugin that's known to work with Cauldron?

John Quixote posted:When setting up a server with Forge you can keep the mods server-side, right? As in, anyone using the server wouldn't have to download the mods themselves, they just need to access the server with a same-version client with Forge installed? Sorry for such a dumb question. No, the client will also need the mods. Not all of them; some mods are optional on either side, but for the most part they have to share mods. A good rule of thumb is that if it adds items and blocks, it needs to be on both sides. If it only works on the client (like a minimap), then it doesn't need to be on the server. Bukkit plugins work the way you describe, though. That might be what you're thinking of.

MrTJP is implementing a unique power system into Project Red. It's basically identical to blutricity, complete with its own blue totally-not-redstone, electrotine. It truly is nostalgic; there's only a solar panel, simple generator, a battery box, a proof-of-concept furnace that isn't worth the effort, and promises of things to come. After trying it out, all I can take from it is that blutricity should have stayed dead.

The Wonder Weapon posted:How possible is it to change what version of forge you're using? We did a pretty basic install process: Generally speaking the only thing that matters to a world is if the mods stay the same so the block IDs don't get hosed up (this may be different and less of an issue in 1.8, I don't know). So you can experiment with Forge versions for the same MC version, and as long as all the mods continue to work you should be fine. I'd back up the world just in case though if you're going to downgrade. I periodically have to update the Forge version for my server (1.7.10) and it's never been a world-killer.

I've always liked the different track types from RC. CJ can be a complete toolbox but you can turn off all of the bullshit in Railcraft and be left with a bunch of fun new tracks that are relatively easy to make. Trains and the tunnel bore are pretty fun too. You wouldn't expect him to, but CJ clearly understands and respects that everyone has different play styles and some of his fiddly bullshit just isn't for everyone.

McFrugal posted:Whaaaaat? Why would slabs instakill you? It's probably the bug where the game calculates each bob of the boat in the water as falling. If you're in a boat for too long and you go from water to solid ground while still riding in it, all the fall damage racks up at once. So it's not slabs specifically, just going to solid ground on a lower level than the water. It's easiest to achieve with slabs. This bug has existed since at least 1.4, probably earlier. Last time I checked it still hasn't been fixed.

Rocko Bonaparte posted:I remember one guy getting complaints from one of their server's players that they're going to going to use all the passive stuff due to how easy it is, and it makes no sense to try any of the other stuff unless the passive stuff is completely removed. Haha, this was my awful friend on my server and at the time I ended up finding a Bukkit plugin that I could configure to prevent only him from crafting, placing, or otherwise interacting with Mekanism windmills. Since then my solution has been to just ignore his bullshit. He still makes lovely passive-aggressive comments to me whenever he plays about the amount of ore (he thinks it's too abundant, of course). edit: Taffer posted:I'm ok with gameplay design stuff being not configurable. I think general numbers should be adjustable to allow modpack makers to build something cohesive, but if an aspect of the overall mod design is integral in the authors mind, that's fine to leave locked. I agree with this but I also love that things like Minetweaker exist. I draw comics and if a reader told me how to do it I would probably want to tell them to gently caress off too, so I can't pretend mod makers are required to bend over backwards for players if it's not what they want to make. On the other hand... I think one of the best things about Modded MC these days is you can basically make the game whatever you want thanks to all the stuff that lets you make new recipes. Minetweaker and Modtweaker are godsends. But even then, if mod makers are willing to let those tweaks work then that's great, but if they're not then they're not, and that's pretty much the end of it.

Sage Grimm posted:Tell him he can make a lossy ore automation process that automatically takes 1/NUM ore and just dunks it into a Nullifier before proceeding normally. Or donate it via a communal ender chest. Or just dump it as an entity for tears from his skull fortress. Your awful friend is awfully uncreative. If I ignore him he just gives up. It's not like he can make me do anything about it. He also refuses to use AE because whenever I talk about it it sounds "too complicated" so I don't know what the gently caress he wants or even is getting out of the game.

Really you'd just have to think outside the box a little bit to come up with interesting consequences for loving up power. Maybe every machine has a base model that does what it does just fine, but can be upgraded with special circuit boards. If you use too much voltage on an upgraded machine, it fries the boards and you have to replace them, but the machine itself would be fine. It's a watered-down version of what happens in real life if you overload electronics without ruining hours of work.

Bhodi posted:Reminder to those who want to emit status effects, look to the sludge boiler - it poisons everything around, and it's dumb no one likes it and it doesn't fit the pack at all. I don't actually like the idea (I am firmly in Team RF), it's just an idea about making things more "realistic" without being a complete loving dickbag like IC2 is about it. Edit: One thing I actually DO like is having to put more thought into infrastructure. Immersive Engineering's wiring is really, really cool. Right now I'm experimenting with a modpack that includes it and a few other tech mods, but all other power conduits are disabled via minetweaker. I had to increase the RF/t values of the wiring from IE and I also disabled the loss over distance, but it's still really interesting to have to think of wires as something other than a block.

I took a look at a cheatsheet Thaumonomicon in TC5 and it looks like there have been some interesting changes to infusion crafting (eldritch stone and ancient stone altars/pedestals will increase speed/stability at the cost of the other, I forget which does which), nitor can be dyed now, and essentia distillation seems to be a lot more annoying & terrible (the highest tier essentia smeltery still has a 5% chance of farting flux out however often). Otherwise, it looks like it's about the same. Our old buddies the elemental tools are still there, thaumium fortress armor is about the same, wands are the same (except how they charge), etc. The Aura/Flux mechanic seems severely unfun, though. I'm really bummed out that it's back. The node vis mechanics were really easy to get a hang of and control, I'm not a big fan of core mechanics that are inscrutable and annoying. Plus I guess you can just permanently gently caress up an area by depleting the aura entirely?? So that's cool if you hate yourself I guess.

I can't hate Railcraft ever since I discovered what it means to turn the factory module off in the config. Then it just adds a bunch of rails you can use (and craft easily, since factory module controls whether or not the rolling machine is required) and blocks that interact with carts in cool ways that don't consume any RF. I set up an item loader at my Immersive Engineering excavator with a rail line leading back to an item unloader at my base and having the cart periodically come in with a load of ore was really cool.
