    Windows .exe The never-seen-before problem...

    ok ... try this: close the launcher open your windows explorer, and goto: C:\Program Files (x86)\Java\jre7\bin\ find the java application, and RENAME it to java_broken If that still finds a 32bit java, then try this: 1) uninstall both versions of java (again) 2) reboot 3) open windows explorer...

    Windows .exe The never-seen-before problem...

    Wierd. So undo the rename, and re-run the launcher. Post the log where it finds the 32bit java version. Im gong to guess that it finds a 32bit version in the same place where you installed the 64bit version.

    How do I learn?

    When I first started with FTB, I watched a few of DW20's videos. and then started a SSP world in creative mode to figure out how stuff worked together (and didnt work). This let me concentrate on how to set things up rather than where do I get the next set of resources to build this block i...

    Crashing when launching 1.6.4 modpacks

    The problem seems to be this: Picked up _JAVA_OPTIONS: -Xmx512M goto start -> my computer (right click) ->properties -> Advanced system settings -> Environment variables find "_Java_options" and remove it

    Windows .exe The never-seen-before problem...

    So look where it found the 32-bit version of java and remove/rename that java.exe file. Then re-run the ftb launcher. Repeat until it finds the 64bit version of java you installed.

    Windows .exe The never-seen-before problem...

    The problem is this one: [19:44:43] [INFO] JavaFinder.parseWinJavaVersion:137: Java Version: 1.7.0_51 sorted as: 1.7.0_51 32 Bit Java at : C:\Windows\system32\java.exe The default windows path is setup to have C:\windows\system32 first, so no matter what else you have installed, it will always...

    Chunk Copying

    depending on the size of the stuff you made, you may be able to just copy the .mca file from your old world to the new one. A .mca file is much more than 1 chunk -- im guessing 16x16 or 32x32 chunks. Simple, no extra mods needed, but you wont be able to relocate stuff to a new position.

    How do you go and progress through FTB Monster

    my startup style also follows a similar pattern. 1st day or so, I run around gathering barley, wood and whatever meat i can find to start a tiny farm. During the nite, I start digging. either steps down to y=10, or a shaft strait down with ladders if im in a nicely forested area. Keep caving...

    Whats the drawback for being a bat with morph?!

    I DO find one drawback when flying as a bat -- mainly the TiC hammer / excavator will get buggy. Sometimes only mines 1 block, sometimes mines the wrong direction. Very small price to pay for the power of flight.

    Sorting & Ore Processing

    For "sorting" I bypass most everything and save up for an AE chest + 64k storage module. The only exception is a few barrels to store common resources like cobble, dirt, sand, etc. Once i have the chest and storage, ore processing is just a simple TE pulverizer and furnace. When im ready for...

    Thermal Expansion 3.0!!! No More Beta! Thanks KL!

    Ive searched many times, but i cant find a comprehensive answer for this: What liquids are supposed to work in the compression dynamo? I tried several in creative, but only fuel seemed to work -- and thats not renewable (without a major investment in bees).

    Why do people like Thermal Expansion so much?

    When you have multiple furnaces / pulverizers / etc to power, then you need much more RF generation than a single engine (or single block) can supply. Having the option to do that in a single (and more expensive) block appeals to me. Plus with more and more mods accepting RF power, your usage...

    Why don't people like IC2 anymore?

    I setup AE to craft plates using an iron hammer, and it worked just fine. Compared to my overclocked metal formers it was obscenely FAST. But for big projects, it used quite a bit more iron. So I ended up going back to using the metal formers. My main beef with IC2 is not so much the plates...

    Why do people like Thermal Expansion so much?

    Adding my $0.02 in here. With TE, I can start a new world... find the resources I need to build the basic machines, and put them in a vanilla furnace to get the the materials to make my beginning ore processing machines. No intermediate tools are required. Other things I like is the wrench...

    Why don't people like IC2 anymore?

    +1 for this one. I like ic2 for some of the things it has -- mainly the iron furnace and quantum/nano-armor. but when the mod DELETES your hard earned blocks because something went wrong (user error, bug or other) -- its a huge turn-off, and a painful slap in the face. Yes the power model it...

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    IMO everyone should make ONE gravisuit by hand. I made 1 by hand in my 1.4.7 world.. I think took me a week? --never again!! Now I have AE crank them out on demand. Makes you really appreciate autocrafting.

    Lag Issues

    Your PC is plenty powerful enough to run both client and server. I have slightly less power on my pc (6 cores, 3.2ghz, 12gb ram) and i can run MULTIPLE servers with no lag - and connect to them. If you are running your client and server on the same PC, then your internet connection (should)...
