Ah, sorry, I guess it's just me. Starting a new instance on Curse did seem to fix stuff - finally seeing the soulbound book at the very start - although loading the saves from the other instance still doesn't work. Guess I'm starting over. I wasn't very far, though, so it's not too bad.

Sorry to be a continued bother. Same error, even in the new version 1.6.0 and even after resetting all quests. Also, when creating a new game, the starting area looks the same (no anvil, even after searching the complex), and the message regarding 1000 missing blocks was still there. Is anyone...

Ah, thank you for the prompt response. Sadly, I tried that, and it didn't work. Even completely resetting the questline doesn't work. Not sure what to try next. D:

After ME^4 updated, loading my old save causes the game to crash: http://pastebin.com/ifsmTktG Creating a new save seems fine, and so I suspect the problem is that I completed one of the quests before it got removed. Does anyone know how I can "uncomplete" that quest without loading the world?

Ah, thanks, that did it. Some nifty stuff up there. P.S. Were there any other dungeons that need to be reset between v.1.4.1 and v.1.4.4?

Quick question about that actually: There's a new quest which involves going to the ceiling of the Nether. "Stabilization core". Supposedly there should be some stuff up here, but I got here and it's just bedrock as far as the eye can see. This is AFTER I reset the nether, mind you, since I...

No evil base is complete without an IDBM system! (That is, an IC2 nuke which falls into a Mystcraft portal - perfect for holding a world hostage!)

I think I remember what's going on here: The reason the dusts behave like this now is because of the Alloying Machine. Er. I think that's what it's called anyway. What Greg has done is give people one of a few options: 1) Smelt ores into bars normally, combine 4->1 2) Smelt ores into bars, use...

...although said databank is actually an Extra Bees item, not a standard Forestry one. Mind you, it doesn't actually give you any information an analyzer wouldn't, but it's nice to have it all in one place.

Keep in mind, though, that you can't actually remove the upgrades. Not even breaking the blocks helps! Transformer upgrades still work, though.

Oh, wait! There is a way to get more diamonds per diamond ore that gives you actual diamonds: you need to make yourself a factorization grinder (which involves blowing up a diamond block, among other things). The grinder will give you 2.2 diamonds per diamond ore, so it actually performs about...

Wait! Wait! Try to wait until the pack updates before you do this; apparently Greg is changing how the fusion reactor works. The coils will be cheaper, but you'll need more of them.

If I remember correctly, they have to be very close to the node - that is, the node must be in its territory- and I think there's a size requirement on the node. I want to say 600 but that is probably wrong.

I believe what he was trying to say was that without a spawner, he'd have to wait around the Nether forever. (Although he doesn't seem to have taken your grinder suggestion into account.) Anyway. By your math, getting three skulls takes... 25*3=75 withers. No idea how often you can find wither...

You know, all this has actually reminded me of something I've been meaning to test: One possible Mystcraft page is "Nether Fortress". If you put that in a normal biome (i.e. not the Hell Biome), can you find withers and blazes inside? Or netherwart, for that matter?
