Not sure. I'm probably going to do it solo at first, and maybe in a month or two I will record it. Currently I don't have good recording software. If I do this challenge, I'm probably going to minetweak and modtweak a lot, basing it around the village itself. Also, I'll probably do the r2r challenge with it, maybe skipping dirt hovel. Who knows, maybe this could become a modpack lol.
[CHALLENGE] (v4.3-ish 6/7/18) Refugee to Regent Kingdom Building Challenge
- Thread starter Maul_Junior
- Start date
Most likely going to be using a lot of mods from

Actually, it is more implementation. Allowing the furnace to be hotter than the friction heater would mean reducing the friction heater power did not make the furnace cool.
Do you guys think I should post a separate thread with the villager mayor challenge? I am bursting with ideas on how different mods can be used with the challenge.
Probably. No sense in continuing to muddle up this one.
For clarity, you'd probably want a separate one anyway.
Having not known about the Dropbox with all the rules in it (many of which I was not aware of) I'm restarting my challenge. I'll post pics as soon as I'm done with Dirt Hovel.
So I was logged out of the FTB forum for some reason and didn't get notified about any of this (which is one of the reasons I haven't been around here in a while).
Thanks for your feedback and support! I have 6 gigs of RAM and have allocated 5 to Minecraft which allows me to be able to run up to ~100 (according to forge's mod count) before I get considerable lag. There are some mods I avoid because they just put too much weight on my system like JourneyMap and Natura (not sure why natura puts so much weight on me but it does).
On to the PSA I've posted to the FCB and M-FCB forums:
Thanks again!
[EDIT] @Senseidragon, sorry about not being able to snag down a regular recording schedule yet. Unfortunately I live in a trailer park and we have a few people that like to stop by the house nearly every day (unexpectedly) and one of them is very loud. There are also things I have to take care of like finishing up my cosplay for DragonCon and doing things around the house. Hopefully when school starts (or rather, when I have access to my class which will be this coming Monday) I'll be able to come up with a decent schedule. I would like to try recording at some time during the week and then making it my main goal to have the episode uploaded on the following Sunday whenever that happens to occur. My life however never has followed a schedule and probably never will which makes doing things regularly very hard (I get thrown curve balls so often I almost know how to hit them back).
(also it doesn't help that I don't really get a whole lot of respect from my mom in terms of recording as she just sees it as a hobby)
[EDIT 2] Come to find out I spent ~40 minutes of the recording finishing the magic building so hopefully the episode will turn out to be no longer than ~45 minutes ish. YAY~!

I wouldn't recommend you allocate more then 4 gigs to FTB. Any more than that, java's garbage collecter goes haywire and lags a ton.
I've been fine with 5 and don't experience much lag unless I have a lot of mods in that do a ton of worldgen. I can, however, run BoP without much trouble.
As with all things, take advice people are freely giving you with a grain of salt, I'm sure @tooncool64 was only trying to help.
Another individual you might recognize, @Vazkii, also tried to pass this advice on, a bit more eloquently, in her blog post earlier this year entitled:
A semi-technical explanation of why you shouldn’t allocate too much RAM to minecraft
Feel free to use or ignore the information as you choose.

I know it's slightly out of thread-order, but this also happened to me quite a few times. Regardless of whether I'm "watching" the thread or not, if there isn't any activity (by me) on the thread in a certain amount of time, the forums seem to silently just not send me updates about the thread anymore. Very annoying.
You can always check the erm... http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/watched/threads <<that link
Should always update.

It's just handier if they send me an email because I've set up my email on my tablet so whenever I get one I hear a ding. Then I can check the sender and if it's either the Minecraft Forums or the FTB forums I know to check them. Otherwise I assume nothing's going on and don't check.
Hey everyone!
I was thinking about all the students going back to school and what better way to showcase individual technologies and magics than with a university. Today we just get started on the admin building and share the vision.

Hey Peoples,
I have finally got the modpack working properly and am now about to start the challenge. Took me way too long, but oh well.
I am using the FTB Infinity modpack with the following mods added:
There were more I wanted to add but couldn't get to work:
If any of you have a mod that you think should be added/removed for whatever reason, feel free to let me know and why. I love having lots of options, especially seeing a lot of it will be restricted early on. Growthcraft is a mod I was introduced to by Mobius in one of his early R2R videos and I really love it, especially the fishtraps.

Wait. Those are all mods you just ADDED to the pack?! What kind of monster are you using?! O _ O
Yeah they sure are. Do you mean monster of a pack? Or monster of a computer? The pack now has around 230 mods in it. My computer is actually low end with parts that mainly came out about 2 years ago, or more.
My PC has:
CPU --- AMD FX-6350
RAM --- 8GB Dual-Channel DDR# @ 801MHz (11-11-11-28)
Motherboard --- ASRock 980DE3/U3S3
GPU --- 2GB DDR3 ATI AMD Radeon R7 200 Series (Sapphire)
