    Request Suggest mods for creation here

    A true genetics lab, where you take creatures already in minecraft and mix and match them. Creeper bomb ability on a pig; skeletons that can climb walls like spiders, sheep that drop beef when killed, cows that can be milked for ink. Potentially expandable to add mobs from other mods, like...

    ur-ghast and power armor

    Yes it can. ::EDIT:: most mobs in TF have the rust effect, which causes armor to take additional damage. This bypasses armor that doesn't take damage, including power armor.

    Good Power Source?

    Without chunk loaders, and it being unhinged, I would suggest building your base around or in a single chunk that as long as you are 'home' that chunk is loaded. In that chunk, your best methods of energy gen are wind, nuclear, or depending on how you manage it a tree farm feeding a boiler.

    Looking for mod that makes potion effects more obvious

    ...from the UI, without having to go into the inventory screen. Hoping this already exists. By the time you've dug into lava in the nether carving out a new tunnel, its a little late to realize that your previous fire resist potion ran out. Having particle effects is useful, but they are so...

    Question About IC2 Energy

    Netmc has it correct. Through some experimenting, we've found that a single face can output as much as the sum of all of the faces (so instead of having transformer cable-flowers, you can have one line). Makes for some much cleaner wiring. Also, be aware that the eu limit on cables is packet...

    Farms

    If you're doing a food farm, a tc3 straw golem working with a wood golem is the lowest maintenance farm.

    Problem 1.5.2 WGT 0.8, Already Removed Clientside Mods

    I've done this a dozen times before, but running into an issue I don't recall encountering. Server starts fine, but the instant a player joins they sit in limbo without loading anything and then the server stops itself. There is no logged disconnect on the server side, just this following the...

    1.5.2 Ultimate Beta w/GT- Quest for Steel

    I ended up finding a block of steel in a chest cart in an abandoned mine, which I was then able to put in the furnace and collect steel ingots from. As far as the gregtech blast furnace- you still need a macerator to get coal dust, which requires an advanced circuit which requires glowstone...

    1.5.2 Ultimate Beta w/GT- Quest for Steel

    Aye, the casings could be made simply. But the blast furnace block requires multiple instances of gold dust, carbon fibre, and then either a steel casing, a titanium casing, or another advanced machine block (more glowstone dust ie gold dust+redstone dust). Not really a possibility when climbing...

    1.5.2 Ultimate Beta w/GT- Quest for Steel

    Ran into an issue where steel is all but impossible to achieve. To get steel, I need to build a blast furnace; to build a blast furnace, I need netherrack; to get netherrack, I need to visit the nether; to visit the nether, I need to open a nether portal; to open a nether portal, I need flint...

    Can someone explain "smooth" stone to me?

    Can someone explain "smooth" stone to me?

    Because stone is a material and you say smooth or cobble to describe the state of said material. Cobble is an accepted real world reference to. What the game calls cobblestone,. If you just say stone, all we hear is blast resistance and color.
