    Noob Needing Assistance!!

    Make sure you allocate enough RAM to minecraft most people recommend 2gb but should never exceed half of your available amount I.E if you have 3gb you shouldn't allocate more than 1.5gb if you have 6gb you can go as high as 3gb. You can do this by going into the options tab in the launcher and...

    one thing that always kills my mood to playing

    I ran one for 8 months, it went through a couple revamps. It was nice TPS never dropped below 19 we even tried to crash the server by detonating 120 nukes but it recovered from the hang after 25 seconds.

    1.8 Snapshot - Underground Biomes in Vanilla

    Perhaps I should have explained myself a little more thoroughly, I used the term game engine due to the fact that all I know about coding is the very basics and my terminology may be incomplete. I was referring to (from what I have read and the comparison between similar games) that minecraft...

    1.8 Snapshot - Underground Biomes in Vanilla

    If I am wrong I have no quarrel with that, however in everything I have read it points at Java/unoptimized code as the source of the strain and poor performance on many systems. My example of this would be a comparison between 7 days to die and minecraft, 7 days to die is built on the cryengine...

    1.8 Snapshot - Underground Biomes in Vanilla

    That's why I was saying it would be awesome if they were to rewrite the game from the ground up without a dependance on java but allow java based mods to integrate. Not sure if that is even possible though my knowledge of coding is basic at best.

    1.8 Snapshot - Underground Biomes in Vanilla

    Its not that, there in lies the problem. If you do a bit of research on the topic it is well documented that the entire game is built completely on java and has no game engine of its own, that is why many people get bad performance.

    The entire game is built on java.

    1.8 Snapshot - Underground Biomes in Vanilla

    I'd rather see minecraft in the 2.x update (long ways off I know) get its own game engine and scrap java completely. Maybe it could allow for java based mods to be intergrated into the game still without forcing the modders to have to learn new methods. Either way when the game at its heart is a...

    What are the Worst crimes you have done in FTB

    The only time I ever had griefers on my server where kids between 11-15 and it only occured maybe maybe once every 4-6 weeks and it was nothing extreme usually an adv solar panel would go missing or a few diamonds. Really just small stuff. We actually rarely completely banned someone I use to...

    What are the Worst crimes you have done in FTB

    On my old server we built an execution area where anyone suspected of stealing/griefing would be jailed to a glass chamber with lava under it, while all the players would sit in the stands while i pulled the lever and started the infinite cycle of lava caused death while they tried to explain...

    Good FPS?

    Technically speaking 23 FPS is what the eye requires for "seamless" viewing for example all TV shows and movies (except those in blu-ray quality or 3D) are viewed at 23 FPS. As others have stated the only reason why people notice changes in FPS is because the human eye has evolved in such a way...

    Slow down wooden transport pipe output?

    You could use a couple gates and set them so that if the extractor has room the gate on the chest side tells the engine to turn on.

    Early game power for quarry

    I use 16 hobby steam engines an aqueous accumulator, then just 4 diamond chests for valuables and 1 one for cobble and dirt. 1 stack of coal for each is enough to quarry out 8 chunks which usually yields my initial investment of coal back.

    Reduce lag

    the solar panels and wind mills aren't helping you much, turning off bee animations in the forestry config may help you a bit. Other than that maybe try upping your RAM allocation may help you a bit (too much can actually hinder performance). Edit. I personally use 3gb of Ram, I do use Optifine...

    Assigning Java to use GPU

    Minecraft not using the GPU properly is only a concern in situations when you have an intergrated GPU and a dedicated one as well. Since you are on a laptop as well as on apple tech I can safely guess this is not a situation you would have. Where you would see something like this would be if you...

    Strangly low FPS using dire pack

    I ended up going using ATlauncher' solitary craft (allows you to pick which mods you want from a list of 190) picked out 99 got 60-80 FPS instead of the 30-40 I was getting with FTB. Then I tried creating a server to spread the load between my cores better, and now am back to 90-110. Thank you...

    Strangly low FPS using dire pack

    I also have tried optifine ( I know I can't get support here for it) but it didn't increase FPS by much which is strange for me and also when set to multi-core the world uh vanishes every time a chunk updates lol

    Strangly low FPS using dire pack

    Can you tell me about that? I don't have an intergrated GPU mine is dedicated, so I can't imagine that it wouldn't be able to not use it. My specs CPU- AMD theban 1100 (3.2ghz) stock Ram- 16gb 1033 GPU- ATI HD 7970

    Strangly low FPS using dire pack

    Hello Everyone happy holidays and all that, I have upgraded to 1.6.4 and am getting low FPS on SSP basically in the area of 30-40 fps on a fresh map, I know many people get in the area of 10-20 so don't think that I am complaining however I use to get 100 fps on a well used SSP map in 1.5.2 so...

    Chunk errors on servers?

    It's pretty common a server restart fixes it, the longer an FTB server runs the higher the likely hood errors can happen.
