Sorry for the lack of updates lately, I've been sort of stuck in a slump wherein I don't really have any ideas. Plus scowering the Nether for ash clouds to equally-trade with cobble is proving a very mundane task. If I were to guess my next move, it would probably be along the lines of...

I have about 5 thousand or so more carpenters blocks on my build and I really don't worry that they are the cause of the lag, I did extensive research into carpenters blocks and even ran a few FPS experiments--I tend to blame the size of the world and the sheer amount of mods attempting to load...

I've been starting to deal with the same problems-lag, that is. I'm nowhere near thinking of starting over, but I have been considering upgrading my computer's RAM... a lot...

Update 2: The Botania floor is coming along nicely! The little redstone circuit below controls the Golem Fetter (which I finally found a use for). The Orange Ender Chest because of this wonderful little temporary tree farm.(seen below) The comparators extend the pulse released by the magic...

My personal take on the issue is that form and function are two sides of the same coin. I, like @epidemia78, cannot stand an incomplete project. It's why I refrained from posting my base for so long because it was just so unfinished and to be honest, kinda annoying. Then again, when I was way...

Gato is cat in a whole bunch of languages :D

I am from Michigan and I love cats.

Near the upper sections of the tower the FPS isn't so bad. I think my computer is simply having trouble with the sheer amount of stuff there is going on within the castle interior. That's a LOT of particle effects going on just passively. I've taken a look at Technomancy before, but it seems a...

Too be fair, how else could the tyrannical tower of a Void Thaumaturge such as myself look like? But really, in all honesty I was very influenced by the Orthanc. Tear down the forests, burn the Ents, build an army of golems. All of it gave off very Isengard-y vibes and my dark-gothic theme...

Thank you! I believe it was a chiseled variant of Dark Oak planks.

Update 1: Today I've completed the top of the Thaumcraft themed tower, well within the cloud layer. I quite like equidistant and symmetrical floating primal crystals. The most important thing about this is that I can now preform my infusions safely in my home base, rather than running all the...

I love how so many beasts around here have made a name for themselves by sharing their creations in a journal type format, and I have written journals in default minecraft before, so why not do the same? I give all credit to @epidemia78 for the idea to do one, but I just feel like sharing my...

The suspense. It's killing me. I'm dying.

I had exactly 4 minutes of pure hype, then faster than you can say "I like trains" the hype train had derailed and devastated the mental countryside. Here I was thinking that Vazkii had picked up my idea and was gonna run with it... I had sent a twitter message with a link to the forum post I...
