    Agrarian Skys help, venting, and discussion thread

    I did. Apologies, tired and frustrated with computer not working properly. I believe the Alumentum has a similar burn duration to a block of charcoal, but does not increase temperature as fast. I think it is likely better than a single piece of charcoal, and probably the more efficient fuel...

    Update on the Future of FTB Modpacks in 1.7

    Okay. You define "major packs" as DW20, Monster, Ultimate, and Mindcrack. Two of those are 1.5 packs. The most popular two of those (Mindcrack and DW20) FTB has no control over the mods included. Of the two that FTB does have control over, Ultimate gets a significant amount of servers, while...

    Update on the Future of FTB Modpacks in 1.7

    That is not the sort of "custom pack" he's referring too. Think something more like Direwolf20 played when he used MultiMC. Basically a do it yourself modpack.

    Update on the Future of FTB Modpacks in 1.7

    I feel like you and I must be on different forums. How do you define major modpacks? I look at the Server Promotion forum on the FTB site, and I see seven subforums. One of them for DW20, one for MindCrack, one for Agrarian Skies, one for Horizons, one for Monster, and one for Ultimate. The...

    Let's not get too much into GregTech please. We all know what that does to a thread.

    Update on the Future of FTB Modpacks in 1.7

    This is the best news I've heard all week. You're my mod-dev hero. You literally won me over. I hated the idea of TE at first, and then your stuff was just so good that I loved it.

    You can also use Alumite in the High Oven, but it isn't as effective as Charcoal. I end up viewing Lava and Charcoal as crafting ingredients, and only making them for recipes I can't make any other way.

    Nope. Gotta design around it.

    I approve of everything about avoiding the drama. It's getting too much attention as it is. Can't we all get along and love the game we play?

    Is available in every pack, same with infinite free charcoal. Both fuels are boring and should be avoided for maximum enjoyment, IMO.

    PurpleMentat plays HQM Modpacks

    I'm a fan of your modded news post and rely on it for my update news. Your a fan of my series. There is some sort of entertainment recursion loop happening here. I'm going to get into doing mod spotlights moving forward. I want to do Big Reactors, but not until I fully understand the math, feel...

    Solving food. Conquering the Nether. Creating systems to complete all the quests. Doing it without lava power (but that applies to all the packs...)

    You can't. At least not that I know of. Blood only enters the altar through violence.

    What's new in modded minecraft today?

    This reads to me like GregTech is going the way of Better Then Wolves and TerraFirmaCraft. That is, a Minecraft Total Conversion. It might not be as intentionally incompatible as BTW, but entirely replacing Vanilla ore gen as the default option certainly won't make it easier to be compatible...

    Update on the Future of FTB Modpacks in 1.7

    Agreed. It's the internet. Someone here hates everything. If they told everyone the next round of modpacks would be exactly the same with the same collection of mods plus one or two new ones, they'd get hate for not being innovative enough.

    Update on the Future of FTB Modpacks in 1.7

    With the level of hyperbole in this thread, reddit, and Twitter, the amount of doom and gloom directed at "abandoning" IC2 and BC, and the general amount of hate you guys are receiving over this, I don't think anyone really read the post. Rather, they interpreted it in the most anti-them way...

    Um, it won't be? Don't like RF, think it's too easy, play a pack that doesn't use it?
