    ExtraBiomesXL vs. Biomes O Plenty vs. ? (for 1.6x+)

    I am so going to use that mod instead of EBLXL when I take the time to make a 1.5 instance. Those biomes look so cool, and if there is now compatibility with bees and other stuffs, then it's all good for me. The only thing that made me not do that was the fact that there were quite a few...

    Bee Breeding Wiki

    As far as I know, the 1% is the base chance for the bee. An apiary just has a multiplier of 0.1 on that, and an alviary has a multiplier of 1. If I am correct, then your calculation is flawed from the very base. Meaning you need to add 3 frame housing to what you calculated.

    Bee Breeding Wiki

    In case you don't find infos, an apiary is the best way of knowing what a biome temp/humidity are. Just put it anywhere on the biome, and open the GUI, it will say it in the temp/humid panel on the right.

    Multifarms: Manual tree farm?

    Wait a minute... You want it to replant? How is it manual then?

    Xycraft Multitanks and Lag.

    You know, breaking tanks is not the only thing they did. They also disabled/broke all chunk loaders, so all the bases are no longer loaded. Of course that would make the server less laggy, I don't even know why they didn't even consider that.

    Sound based lag

    I know that you can update the sound files with a newer version, but I never remember the name of the sound system used, so usually don't do it. I second the question on where to find the newer files.

    Dumb Modular Powersuit Tricks

    Is it still the case in the latest 1.5 versions? I know that the anvil +Book exploit was fixed in some mods, so I thought it might have been solved for every other mods too (like, inside forge or some free code piece).

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    If the boiler is fully heat up, and that you indeed kill them right as they spawn (so max spawn rate for the spawner), them you might be able to keep your boiler heat up. The problem being that for way less work, a 1 chunk tree farm can also do that, be it with mfr or railcraft. Blaze rods...

    Disabling specific blocks/mods?

    You don't seem to understand what a phobia can cause. Depending on the person, it could cause some serious nerve stress. Some people have phobia so bad that they simply pass out. While I do agree that Minecraft spiders are not as bad as in many other games, they still are spiders, and it is...

    Divine RPG for ultimate!

    The main problem for any mod focussing on killing mobs is that fighting in Minecraft is boring as hell. Even worse, on servers with a bit of latency, you can even get randomly hit by mobs that should not be able to in vanilla. If you ever want to make a mod focus on fighting, you have to add...

    Beealyzer vs Analyzer

    The main downside of the analyser is that you still need a beealyser to see the different traits. All you can see otherwise is if the species is pure or not, as well as some active traits, but not the inactives, and certainly not all. But yeah, for people liking to automate some steps, the...

    Xycraft Multitanks and Lag.

    They only manually broke the valves of each tank. Yeah, that is how they actually test if their theory is correct...

    Xycraft Multitanks and Lag.

    You know what, this very tweet feed just proves my points higher... They don't know what they are talking about, and are not even contacting the modder to signal the problem (cf soarin tweet at the end). Seriously, to me, that proves that generikB and guude are not to be trusted on what...

    If YOU had only one mod to take out of Ultimate, forever, what would it be?

    * grabbing popcorn * I'd say EE3, I guess, because I disable it anyway, but not sure I would want to remove it for everyone. Thinking about it, removing any mod for everyone else seems kind of unfair, as some people might use and like what others don't.

    Little confused about LV/MV/HV

    I think what you need is the energy storage upgrade you disregarded. Basically, with too many overclockers, they eat through all the internal storage at once, and need to wait fo the machine to fill enough to run again for an other tick. No matter how much you feed it, it will remain limited...

    Divine RPG for ultimate!

    I never played with it, but I saw complaints about it making it way harder to survive in the overworld. It might be a personal thing, but I don't feel that adding hostiles to Minecraft really adds to the game, not when the fighting is just flat out not interesting to start with. Add possible...

    IC2 To Buildcraft......

    It indeed does, but back in november, the mod was considered as not being balanced, and was not even considered for FTB.

    Xycraft Multitanks and Lag.

    I think we need to be a bit harsh on them when they have such an impact. When they give false or unverified information, it tends to spread quite a lot, because some of them are known to know what they are talking about (in vanilla). Etho is one of the figures for redstone and mechanisms all...

    Xycraft Multitanks and Lag.

    I know for a fact that it's not a specific block, but at least the corners, because here is how I do it, and it does indeed detect items from the 'final' items. I can definitely understand why you would say that, and if that is indeed how it is done, then fine. The thing is, I notice that the...

    The simplest item distribution

    That is a good early game solution, but when you can, having things like a diamond gate directly on the destination (to force inside if possible, rather than the random), as well as iron gates+pipe wire really helps to have way less items in transit. While items in pipes and tubes don't affect...
