    If you place and use the portal to the Deep Dark, and then move the portal in the Overworld, does that mess it up?

    Have question about a few mods couple magic and a tech Mod.

    FYI: Embers and Roots are only really in their "proof of concept" stage in 1.10.2 Embers in 1.10 is... un-finished. The basics are there, but there is nothing in it that many other mods do, and mostly do better. The graphics are quite nice though! Roots in 1.10 is bare bones. I found the...

    Problem No Hostile mobs Spawning in 1.11.2 pack

    This sounds like the old problem of invisible mobs using up all the mob spawns... I can't remember what mod did it, but it was back in 1.6.4.. Had to go in and /cohf kill *mobname* to get regular spawns again.... Could you post a list of the mods you are using in your pack? This may help others...

    I thought dire used the droppers (open crate? what ever the dropper thing from botania is) and the phantom face from AA... He's not shooting items up through the ground like a vanilla item elevator, what sounds like you are doing due to the flying items :) For simplicity's sake, I just usually...

    As soon as you have one flower of the colour you want, you have as many as you want. You can plant the petals, and bonemeal them to get tall versions, use shears on them and get 4 petals per 1 planted. Appatite makes this stupidly easy!

    [1.11.2/1.11.0/1.10.X/1.9.4] ViesCraft - Airships!

    Hey Viesis! Long time since I've chimed in, but I'm back! Have you given any thought on having more than one module able to be inserted at one time? Not having the "max height" module makes the airship no good for exploring if you are starting out at Y60 (it seems to max out at Y75/76), but...

    Problems finding wither skeletons or any skeleton.

    This video is based in Vanilla MC, and works as well in modded. No need to futz around with configs or moving spawners:

    Problems finding wither skeletons or any skeleton.

    They can be a bit shy at times. Remember vanilla spawning mechanics when it comes to Wither Skeletons in the Nether Fortresses. Look for the intersections, clear out a 3 high space around them (I suggest a Tinker's Hammer) to allow for more valid spawn locations. Good hunting!

    Modpacks

    Also what version? 1.10 needs a minimum of 4gig just for Minecraft, while 1.7.4 can do with 2gig

    Best pipes from What mod to Transfer Energy?

    That's a negative. Direwolf20 found that out in this let's play when he was trying to send/receive power from his DE reactor. They could not keep up.

    I've got a question... With all the great mods and texture packs out there, why do we still have fence posts that repel water? Hard to make a nice looking dock when the posts don't seem to go "in" the water.. :)

    Better Foliage Netherrack Vines

    The Yellow Vines? If so, it's actually added by Biomes'O'Plenty...

    Best pipes from What mod to Transfer Energy?

    For the largest amount of power transferred? In 1.10 it's the Draconic Evolution power transfer system. Hands down. But quite end game.

    Purple slime for the knightslime is semi rare, and I would rather use my first one for an expander for my hammer :) Also, Slime Crystals (green that is) is so cheap. No use of fuel to smelt, no Iron used, no problem :)

    Auto peat

    Do you have Refined Storage in your pack? If so, wouldn't a system like the one DW20 made for Living Wood and Living Rock work? Using Constructors to place and Destructors to collect, based on filtered in/out? *edit after reading more carefully* You found bonemeal to be best for fertilizer...

    This is true, but you do lose some durability by not using slime. I go with any kind of wood Tough Tool Rod (to start, may switch to copper for extra exp) and Slime Plate x 2 and Slime Hammer Head. This gives me 4,500 durability. Add in Redstone to speed up mining, an Expander module...

    Since watching Mischief of Mice's vid extolling the virtues of slime tools, my first mission in any world is to find an accessible slime island. Slime Tree saplings are quite plentiful, and slime crystals are easy to make. For a hammer with 4,500 durability to start, and an obsidian sharpening...

    So, with DW20 playing on the Forgecraft server using 1.11, how long is the average wait time for the next version of modpacks to come out? My server is getting a bit stale with the 1.7.4 Infinity still on it, but I'm not too hyped about having to upgrade to 1.10, only to have to move to 1.11...

    rhn's continued adventures: a build journal, guide collection etc.

    May I suggest TnT for terraforming larger rivers? *evil grin* Make yourself a Minecraft Panama Canal or something similar ::)

    (DW20 1.10.2-1.10.0): CPU throttling for no reason

    Question: Do you have your graphics card set to be used with MC? This can take some of the load off. Suggestion: 1) You say fps drops when coming in to the center of your base. Is it a redstone nightmare? Are all your machines in one place? This may be a problem. If so, clean up your...
