    Horrible FPS Issue

    Seems the newer DW20 pack needs more RAM than it used to. I had the same problem with it running very slow on my laptop. Some poking around shows windows was running out of memory and then using the HDD to swap... this reduced my normal 40fps to about 4-5. I had 4GB RAM on my laptop, and the...

    What weird cross-mod combos have you found?

    Back in 1.5.2 when I had the minium stone, one could "grow" diamonds. Lots of wood, but it was nice when the rng was mis-behaving. logs -> obsidian -> iron -> gold -> diamond. And while playing RR, i found magnesium + iron in the TiC smeltery gives steel. Great for making railcraft tanks and...

    Is too much RAM a waste...? (DW20Pack)

    mc is single threaded. So no matter how many cores/threads you have, it will only use 1. Since your doing single-player, then all the rendering AND the server calculations are running on one single core. One thing that will help performance is to setup a local server and connect to that. It...

    So what's the best treefarm in 1.6?

    With an unlimited supply of fertilizer, the MFR farm is unbeatable. But after mine ate up my entire supply of apatite in 1 nite, it was more trouble than its worth. Switching to a forestry farm fixed that. Now i have saplings + logs coming out my ears, and have yet to use a full stack of...

    Playing DW20, just a query about the Biomes O'Plenty, too many too small?

    That looks like the modpack or BOP version was updated after world creation. If thats a newly generated world - what seed did you use?

    How would you change IC2

    Agreed, it does have a lot of potential... It would have more if you could scan ANY block and reproduce it with varying amounts of liquid UU and EUs. Set the default values deliberately high for blocks it doesn't know and allow other mods to specify their own amounts of UU and EUs needed for...

    How would you change IC2

    my main pet peve with ic2 is the exploding machines. i work my A___ off to build my first mfsu, and then due to a mistake, or mis-click.. it blows up, or morphs into a machine block. From a realism point of view, it make sense. but from a gameplay/fun point of view - its a really bad idea...

    Morph - Flight seems a bit op..

    I played with morph a while back and found it only mostly OP. Unless something changed, you loose your morphs (flight) when you die. Also you get the DIS-advantages of the mob you are morphed into. So while flying around your base as a blaze is great, life sucks if it starts raining while you...

    Lag Spikes with DW20 Modpack

    I dont have any answers right away - but something you can try: Hit F3 and watch the FPS numbers are you play. That may give you a clue as to the source as you move around. Also watch the ram usage. I got some nasty lag spikes while playing RR because something was leaking memory BADLY. ram...

    What do you consider to be a good spawn?

    Trees trees and more trees is what I look for. They are great materials for starting out (charcoal) and a little bit of free food (apples). I also tend to build my permanent base above ground, so the trees make for a nice view while im slaving away at the crafting table. Ideal spawn would be...

    Placed quarry with optifine now my world is flickering

    I had the same thing happen - but it was only in our mystcraft mining age. Highly annoying, but since it went away when i returned to the overworld, it was manageable. *sometimes* i could get it to go away by doing a 'reset video setting' in optifine. but that was usually temporary. best...

    JVM Arguments for Modded Minecraft (Updated 12/30/13)

    while these options work ok on the regular FTB launcher, I tried on another launcher and I get a strange error: 2013-11-24 19:48:42 [SEVERE] [ForgeModLoader] Unable to launch java.lang.reflect.InvocationTargetException at sun.reflect.NativeMethodAccessorImpl.invoke0(Native Method) at...

    Challenge, Reward, and the ratio between them

    To address one of points from the OP Playing on a 1.6.4 server, I ran into the exact same problem.. and the (mostly) the same solution. Eventually I had my AE network connected to 3 metal formers, and I could make anything i wanted. Queue up one medium solar array... OMFG it was sooooo...

    How would I slow game progression down?

    Im not sure whats available in the configs - but if you can find a way to reduce the amount of power produced from the MFR stuff. That will reduce or eliminate the perpetual motion cycle you have going. But once you start down that road, you will need to edit everything else in the same way --...

    Whitelist Server DW20 AdabbonCraft | 50+ Slots | No Lag | Streamers | Little Restrictions | TeamSpeak3

    If you cant make it work right with the new plugin -- please put the old server back. Id rather have stuff back than the mcpc+ stuff installed. it tends to crash/corrupt things after a while
