    I'm pretty sure Drastic has said the last patch was going to be the final one for this pack. That said, the printing press issue is probably due to insufficient levels. If I remember right you need over 50 levels to copy a Soulbound 1 tome. Wearing a pair of reading glasses should let you take...

    There are Nether biomes in the cave world, you just need to keep hunting. Wisp spawn rate is immensely limited for some reason. There's a few ways to address it but the simplest is probably to edit the spawn weights to increase the number of wisps. Squid ink sacs drop rarely from Lycanite's...

    I haven't had any trouble with it at all, and I've definitely had a number of deaths. How is it failing on you, precisely?

    Is anyone else having trouble with chupacabras just totally ignoring iterdiction torches? That wouldn't be such a problem on its own, but they also appear able to spawn just about anywhere, even in a fully lit room with a half slab floor, which has made it utterly impossible to secure my base...

    I'd probably set the battle tower distance to 512, since it appears to just place them as often as it can. Haven't tinkered with the Abyssalcraft spawn rate yet, I only found it just now and I'm at work so I can't experiment with it. I'd say set it for 10 and see what we get?

    I pulled the values I quoted from Github, so unless Drastic has something half done on a local system, it's still in need of an edit.

    Well, the "evil animal spawn rate" is in abyssalcraft.cfg. It should be set to 20 right now, but it sounds like you might want to dial it down to about a 5. You might also want to pop into BattleTowers.cfg and increase the minimum distance between towers and their minimum distance from spawn.

    Wow. I had to deal with a homicidal chicken, but that wasn't toooo bad. It shouldn't be ALL passive mobs, so you've either got terrible luck or there's something wrong with a config somewhere. As far as the Battletowers go, as long as you stay about 15-20 blocks from the entrance you should be OK.

    The towers are AtomicStryker's Battletowers. Get far away from them. The homicidal passive mobs are demon posessed, if you kill one it'll spawn an evil red version from the corpse (which you have to then kill again.) Simply put: it isn't that you're doing anything wrong, the world is just...

    So, I'm still getting the hang of it, but as it stands Psi looks like it is going to end up being the go-to utility tool for most things. I'm hesitant to say that it's overpowered at this stage because I haven't got enough experience with it, and don't have the high tier toys, but it's...

    Here's an interesting bug for you: trying to make Metalleat seeds in Thaumcraft 5 is currently impossible because adding anything that isn't an active ore for making native clusters to a crucible with Metallum and Ordo in it will result in a Silver Native Cluster. My best guess as to why is...

    The Silverwood is touchy and requires a lot more open space than I'd initially expected it would, but the Grower will work on them. I just filled a node with red aura and used dynamite to dose it with a ton of grow ticks at once.

    Make absolutely certain it has enough space and then use a Cascading Grower on it. Works on Silverwood trees too.

    Energy Condenser... I think it's still in the pack. There isn't a good way to dump items into the tablet automatically, I don't think.

    They're pretty common compared to the essence infused stone, and I like that they're a reason to go caving. Plus IIRC there's a crystal seed you can make to grow more now.
