    MFR Tree Farm vs Forestry biofuel for Boilers

    I've run a pair of 36LP's from a 3x3 MFR treefarm with Ghostwood at natural growth rates, with fertiliser (very easily gained from a single sewer, with range upgrade, under a pen with a dozen or so animals in it) a 3x3 farm can easily feed 3 or 4 boilers. A 14x14 MFR tree farm with fertiliser is...

    A little rant

    Very true, my server is basically for me and my kids (and their friends) both my daughter and my son have bases in the world as do a couple of their friends. I set it up for me really since I like having a persistent world to play around in, the kids however thought it was great that they could...

    A little rant

    This part of the reason my server is sitting on the desk next to me and the only people allowed on the server have to be in the same room as me to connect to it, makes telling someone they are being a twit considerably easier.

    Moonstone?

    They fall in a 128 block radius or at least the Sigil that can attract them (Sigil of Lunar Tides I believe) has a 128 block radius it affects (unchangeable via inlay around the sigil), they only fall at night in areas with a clear LOS to the sky and only on grass when the player is outside...

    Mojang Reps Saying Modders Can't Have Terms on Their Mods

    Mutable Hypothetical? true but possible? also true likely? that one is more of a maybe but considering that someone did (specifically with RP2) when it was considered to be far more of a legal issue I would mark it as likely. It depends of your definition of a "modpack of significant size" I...

    Mojang Reps Saying Modders Can't Have Terms on Their Mods

    The really interesting one would be if someone used this as justification for releasing their own version of Forge based entirely on the current Forge's code now wouldn't that be a nice thorny knot? Forge is a mod for Minecraft and is under the definition of this isn't it?

    Mojang Reps Saying Modders Can't Have Terms on Their Mods

    I could see this being used as justification of "Redpower 2 the reincarnation" quite easily and I suspect that some good (as in active, able coders not ethical) devs would pick that up, which would be "stealing" a mod and sure ethical pack makers would not include said mod but the endusers...

    Thermal Expansion 3 is boring (actually just RF)

    Evoc is a great small mod that addresses a few tickrate lag issues from vanilla blocks, grab ProfMobius's other mods while you're there they all work well and do things in a very "light" manner, I run a rather pathetic home server and have been deliberately keeping my resource usage low. TE...

    Mojang Reps Saying Modders Can't Have Terms on Their Mods

    Good modpacks do provide value to the mod makers in the way of initial support (bug chasing, odd interactions etc) but good modpacks are fairly few and far between most just throw a crapload of mods together make some semblance of an attempt at configing to not crash and let er rip. I make...

    one thing that always kills my mood to playing

    Possibly not if it is an AI\Spawning issue rather than an entity issue.

    Carpenter making MC Crash

    The last time I saw a crashlog like that it was an old API in one of the mods that was causing it I'm not saying that is the case here but getting all the mods up to date would probably be a good idea in any case.

    Help With Biomes O Plenty

    I'm not sure but you may be able to disable all the BoP biomes in worldgen and still have them available in Mystcraft ages in fact I'm fairly certain that is possible if you use standard gen with BoP active which will only give vanilla overworld terrain but it is still a loaded mod so the biomes...

    one thing that always kills my mood to playing

    Well you could do what I did and install JDK (java development kit) so you can use JVisualVM to find the exact cause of your issues takes a bit of buggerising around to figure out what's what but it did reliably track down what was killing my server. I did have (and still do) area latency if I...

    ELI5: Ore Dictionary expanded or "Why can't forge handle the ore generation?"

    Even if there was just a text file that reported all registered mod added ores it would be incredibly handy when setting up a pack, I might not forget to disable Forestry copper\tin for the hundredth time....

    one thing that always kills my mood to playing

    Opis also didn't notice my Duct issues which although itemducts are a tile entity I believe it was the routing of the items within the ducts that was eating my servers tickrate, so routing calculations are not covered either. However Opis has been useful in tracking down something that my son...

    Long lasting mods

    Add Special Mobs as well (FatherToast), there have been issues reported with it on servers but you can try, you may get lucky or unlucky considering just what mobs are capable of with those installed.....
