    [1.7.10 | Unlisted] Obscurity - Jampacked 2 Winner

    Working on the Soularium Jetpack control unit and I'm at a loss for getting bats. I don't recall seeing a bat spawn at any point during my playthrough. I don't see any alternative means to spawn them. Any suggestions? Did I miss them? Do I need to buckle down and advance my Thaumcraft progress...

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    @Eyamaz- Any official word on changes to nether ores re: explosions? I'm sure I'm not the only one who's been waiting to update 'til the coast looked clear. So far it seems like we've seen a few reports saying nether ore explosions are making nether mining impossible and AFAIK no one has said...

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    Thanks Will, enjoyed the episode. For what it's worth, I appreciate the cuts. My time is valuable and I appreciate you not wasting it. I do watch a LOT of BnB LPs and brevity and editing is something that could certainly be used more! BTW I had fun watching you and your friend on Twitch a...

    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    If I understand you correctly and you've replaced the flint pickhead with an iron one, then you need to either use the pick until you get the xp required to "boost" the pick or use the correct mob head to boost the pick. The mining level of the pick is based on the material of the pickhead...

    Agrarian Skys help, venting, and discussion thread

    The simplest solution I've found is to right click the MAC and remove and replace a crafting pattern. I don't think you need to event open & close your inventory, just removing it from the MAC pattern provider interface briefly will cause it to update it's crafting recipes. This doesn't require...

    Unsupported Direwolf 20: 1.6.4 {PUBLIC BETA}

    Regarding Hecates & mob spawns this issue has been reported on the Ars Magica 2 bug tracker https://github.com/Mithion/ArsMagica2/issues/393 Mithion posted that he will look into it. I've run into the issue as well. The bug report thread has a workaround using OpenBlocks to disable Hecate...

    Permission less mods

    I'm not sure if anything has changed but if you're talking about a private server modpack, distributed by FTB, I would assume that the information in http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/guidelines-for-private-server-mod-packs.9598/is still FTB's policy. Which means you will need to collect...

    Favourite FTB Youtuber/s Reloaded

    I watch more DW20 than anything and personally prefer his server play series. It's an interesting insight to what's coming up in mods like the Thaumcraft 4.1 update. And I enjoy the feedback and participation of other mod authors. The builds are sometimes great and sometimes not as much, but...

    Thaumcraft Alchemy Automation

    Normally with Thaumcraft you have to research something before you can do it. Assuming that applies to alchemy & the crucible, then whatever "player" is adding items to the crucible would have to have the research completed. I'm assuming that Thaumcraft checks each time something is added to the...

    [Solved] Server crashing on loading with DW20 1.0.4

    Looks like Machine Muse changed Powersuits to not use Java 1.7 methods. DW20 1.0.6 can run under Java 1.6.

    Thermal Expansion 3.0!!! No More Beta! Thanks KL!

    Just tried this using TE 3 beta 7a and the vanilla crafting table lost all my items when upgrading them. Confirmed Machinist's Workbench preserves them. Repeated several times to be sure. Just checked again, and strongbox -> hardened, hardened -> reinforced both lose items when upgrading on...

    How can I figure out what is sucking the power out of my Redstone Energy Cell?

    Wow. I just read all 8 pages of this debate. I feel like there should be an achievement unlocked. And after reading the whole thread I think this comes down do nothing more than a preference in play styles. To be fair, it's made more complicated by the fact that we are talking about a...

    Direwolf20: The Man Behind the Steve Skin

    I've always pictured Ray Romano when listening to Dire. I saw these pictures when the thread was first posted and I'm back to report I still picture Ray Romano! ;) Also, isn't that Eric Fullerton from the Shaft podcast in the second picture?

    getting started with bee breeding.

    I found GenerikB's "Beecademy" videos really helpful in understanding how the basics worked, including the method for breeding Industrious & Imperial bees and why it's so important. You can find them on YouTube at BEEcademy Bee Tutorials!

    getting started with bee breeding.

    The best advice I can give you is make sure you are using the Beealyzer on all the drones. It's the only way to know for sure what traits the bee has and make sure you choose the "best" drone to breed. And as Revemohl said, you'll need patience! :)

    getting started with bee breeding.

    I'd been running a couple of quarries for a while, feeding directly into an AE system, before I decided to "see what this bee business was about". At some point after manually searching for Rocky hives I accidentally typed some search into the AE monitor that showed bees and to my surprise I...

    Baffling Automated Alveary problem

    I'd try breaking and replacing the gates. I've definitely seen gates stop working then work fine once replaced. I'm assuming you have them set for "Items in inventory -> pusler", you might try "Princess/Queen missing -> pulser" to see if it works any differently. You would get "clumps" of items...

    Direwolf20 1.5.2

    Happy to help. And rereading my comment it sounds like I'm telling you personally to calm down. So let me clarify that I just mean "relax and smell the roses" for a bit while the FTB team sorts it all out, nothing more than that! :)

    Direwolf20 1.5.2

    I believe pack updates are in progress and there have been a few hiccups in the process. Relax and try again in a little bit!
