    Blood N Bones [Hardcore Survival]

    Yep, this. If he had said "sorry guys, can't do it" I'd have written it off. But too many sad stories, just around the corner, working on it, etc. It's never coming out. Frankly, it doesn't need to. Other packs do the same thing better. Invasion modpack has much the same feel, and i like how...

    Final Release of Infinity Evolved and 1.8.9 Development

    There are a couple of problems with progression on servers that won't affect single player. Many players don't take any time to find a way that is lag friendly. The first is iridium. I would much rather have seen iridium only available from reactors. Players take the known route of EU to Mass...

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    I'll take a look. No NEI at work handicaps me :) Hopefully not to far up the tech tree, i'm still in the steam age.

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    I was wanting to play with BluePower, but i'm not finding zinc other than small ores now and then. Is there a vein of some type that includes it? Normally I'd put it down to bad luck with exploring, but none of the other 6 players i've asked have seen it either.

    Announcing FTB Infinity Evolved, FTB Tweaks, and FTB Utilities.

    There is the alloy smelter from TE. Coal dust and iron ingots. When looking for recipes, remember that IC2 refined iron is a steel equivalent. Also the IC2 blast furnace, but i believe it's fairly slow.

    How to add or change loot in Minecraft Roguelike Dungeons

    Nice. The dungeons are nice challenges, and this gives some flexibility in rewards.

    Ascension Pack Discussion

    One thought that came to mind from thinking of 'ascension to godhood' was stories of how gods/demigods/angels were 'cast down'. Maybe a mechanic where instead of death being the end of your game, a few things happen. "You are a failure in the eyes of the Gods. Not even Death will give you...

    Build the Wheel part of it first. The single steel block and next layer are below the level of the excavator. Then build the excavator around it. The Wheel touches the machine at the back. Then hit the back center of machine with the engineers hammer. It doesn't auto form.

    Slow process :) Currently have copious amounts of notes and working on it in my spare time, which is getting smaller as Christmas approaches. ( I own a couple of games stores and my hours stretch to 80 a week during december. ) After the holidays we'll try to set up the map using the a...

    Pam Harvestcraft , railcraft , IC2 , etc

    hmm, think i agree with you on most things. Possibly i wrote my post wrong? I have hundreds of players on the servers i help to run, and was attempting to give an idea of why some mods get used, some don't, and why they are still viable mods when used in other packs. Not sure where you...

    Pam Harvestcraft , railcraft , IC2 , etc

    What has happened is that much easier to use mods have come out. Easier recipes. More power. More overpowered, OP! and AWESOME!!!. :) IC2 reactors can blow up, need lots of work, and don't put out the massive power of Big Reactors. BR can be made with very simple vanilla blocks and ingots. So...

    Are Mystcraft/RFTools Still Dedicated Server destroyers/ massive lag soruces

    It vastly depends on what type of server you play on. -Small whitelisted server with a finite amount of people, active admin, and responsible players: Should be fine. Set the rules, and trust people to abide by them. -Open server where anyone can join, and no rules about the mods: Some...

    It's not a bad mod, but with EnderIO, IC2,TE, and a host of other tech mods, is it really needed? And they would have to work all it's recipes into the tech tree. Is there anything Mekanism does that isn't already in the pack?

    Excellant. Any chance the Platinum/irridium veins are being removed?

    Announcing FTB Infinity Evolved, FTB Tweaks, and FTB Utilities.

    A heads up about something that could upset a bit of progression. Players have discovered the Excavator from Immersive Engineering. When set up, this will produce thousands of blocks or ores from a chunk. (No blocks actually mined). One chunk in 6 is default for veins. A vein can will have...

    Announcing FTB Infinity Evolved, FTB Tweaks, and FTB Utilities.

    FTB Tweaks is a very simple mod that introduces the concept of game modes. This allows you to set up multiple minetweaker profiles and switch between them on the fly, giving the ability to switch game modes without a server restart. Re-reading this, i noticed the word "multiple". Does FTB...

    I wanted Iguana for opposite reasons :) Right now you lose a tool (hard with graves and TC tools not despawning, but can happen) or want to make a new one, you just make it and add the stuff you want. Done. Having to level up each tool, especially if you gave it a high value for exp, made...

    I haven't tried to add Iguana, but it's one of a shortlist of mods that i wish were in the pack. Even if they were turned off by default, having them available would let us do servers with different flavors of Infinity, and players would just use the same pack. Iguana Tweaks, Hunger Overhaul...

    No, i've had no problems with Rowan and Alder. Only started into witchery but have burned a bunch of them.
