    got a new 200$ graphics card, but it won't run ftb like it should

    I don't think this has been noted, but do you have 64 bit Java installed, or 32? If you have _both_ installed, Minecraft will run at 32 bits by default. (Anyone know how to fix this in FtB so it uses the 64 bit version with both installed?) You can check this by going into graphics settings...

    FTB featured on Beebop Vox MC show today.

    I can't stand that guy. It's like one of those "comedy" quick-cut toons decided to make Minecraft vids. He also tries to self-promote himself to a disgusting degree. I'm so glad that Minecraft Forum no longer features his vids on the front page.

    (Mindcrack) How do you make hollow slabs etc?

    OK, I fixed it (kind of) It seems that there isn't a direct recipe for hollow slabs or any other types except for 8 hollow stone covers. So, blocks must be cut down to covers first before made into hollow covers, and then re-combined into the thicker pieces.

    This is exactly what I did :(

    (Mindcrack) How do you make hollow slabs etc?

    I can't seem to craft them using the normal recipe, and there aren't recipes to make them in NEI except from other hollow pieces.

    Yogscast on FTB

    Actually it seems that the way they play is much the opposite: for example for the Jaffa factory, they could have just condensed everything from the start and made Jaffas that way. The philosophy of "Build something fun, not something maximally efficient and boring" seems to be echoed throughout...

    Mystcraft is extremely OP to a game breaking degree.

    Yes, but there's also some good comments that add consideration, such as: This is a good comment because it explores effects of dense ores on gameplay and shows other issues. While I don't think the argument is completely valid (resource collection considerations are a major part of...

    Mystcraft is extremely OP to a game breaking degree.

    We've already been through this; your post is simply restating others' posts, and has already been addressed. The stated intent by Slowpoke is to provide a basically balanced experience. For example, in a recent Livestream he stated that UU Matter is unbalanced out of the box, without adjustment...

    Renting a FTB server

    Yeah... you should be careful posting threads like this :) A common spam tactic is for one sockpuppet to post "Where can I buy X?" and for another sockpuppet account to post a link to the site advertised. Not saying you're doing this, but you do only have one post... so yeah.

    Is Mystcraft going to be included in MindCrack pack?

    Short answer: nobody knows! (yet) Long answer: probably not (my personal opinion.) It's first and foremost a pack for the server. Things like creating ages and the like doesn't make sense because their stated philosophy is a desire to create a continuous world with other Mindcrackers, and to...

    I asked why you posted. If you're merely repeating what someone else said, you're not contributing anything meaningful, you are merely posting for the sake of posting, which is silly. So again I ask: what is the purpose of your post?

    If you had read the thread, you would have noted that your comment was already posted several times, and addressed. The same with this comment. If you don't have anything new to add to the discussion, why are you replying? To make your post count larger? :D

    Using a 1.4.5 seed with FTB

    The world generation between FtB and Vanilla is completely different because of Extrabiomes. As a result, the world you generate with FtB will look nothing like the one in vanilla.

    What? This doesn't even make sense.
