    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    In ultimate will emeralds generate within other biomes than extreme hills? I've heard that mods that add new biomes can make changes like this to solve my problem: traveled 5000 blocks in all directions and not fou d extreme hills at all.

    How do you handle admin/op privileges on a server...when everyone helps pay for it?

    I dont care about in game stuff, its being able to access the server and figure out how to say... set up backups. Surely one person has OP privileges dont they? Someone is adminstering the server?

    Why Do People Avoid Building on Non-Flat Land?

    I used to get all bummed out looking at super amazingg builldings designed by people on r/minecraft on reddit.com... then recently i found out that many people who have design educations love minecraft... and those are generally the builds you see displayed the msot. So if you see huge cool...

    Why Do People Avoid Building on Non-Flat Land?

    I always end up building platforms 10-15 blocks above the surroundings, but this thread has given me some ideas. I do think that part of the issue is that in a big flat area it is easier ot make things look 'neat'. If you build on a hillside or something, you can easily make things look...

    How do you handle admin/op privileges on a server...when everyone helps pay for it?

    And id be fine letting him just run the show if he enjoys it but... we lost 4 worlds until i asked him if there was a way to jsut copy the world file over and he said he would do that. Now our new server has automatic backups for free... and they arent enabled. When i ask to help out, it...

    How do you handle admin/op privileges on a server...when everyone helps pay for it?

    Hmm, do most people play on larger more public servers? I really was talking about 'hey lets the three of us all get a minecraft server and share the expense'. My buddy wanted everyone to chip in, but only wnats himself to be admin... but he doesnt even run backups. Even after I told him...

    How do you handle admin/op privileges on a server...when everyone helps pay for it?

    Just wondering how people usually handle this. Do you let everyone have access to the server, if all of the players are chipping in for the cost of it? Obviously the fear is that people will cheat... even though its technically not a competitive style game, and if the person is paying for...

    Favorite Biomes and Starting Locations

    Why is a desert a good biome to start in? I often look for a plain or small island near a larger landmass.

    Terraformer flatificator range

    I should stop trying to help people, for some reason i thought a chunk was 9 blocks wide. (facepalm) Yes 128 x 128.

    Terraformer flatificator range

    Sounds like a Filler would work better for you. I only used the terraformer once, but I dont remember any way to set a range, its supposed to change a whole biome iirc. A filler could be set to 40 x 40 and will fill in holes, etc. edit: Looks like its about 72 x 72 blocks, no apparently...

    What if every mod had a Gregtech version?

    Please spare me the condescension. It's very simple: tell me why you don't cheat items in? If you're building all this grandiose shit and are so superior to the sad sad people like me why do you waste your time crafting anything at all? Of course it would be ideal for mod designers to just...

    What if every mod had a Gregtech version?

    This is ridiculous and here's why. Ive never crafted a HV cable for IC2, other than for recipes. I move from some copper cable right up to glass fibre all over my base. So *because the recipe is cheap compared to the amount of resources I can bring in fairly easily* an entire set of items never...

    Best tool for mining nether ores?

    The only time I've lost a turtle was in the nether after dozens of runs with no issues in the over world. Would pigmen attack it? I know creepers have blown up on a turtle with no issues so I don't think exploding ores are a problem. Turtles would be superior to a quarry though as they just...

    What if every mod had a Gregtech version?

    Well i think SOME People love MFR, but personally I wish it wasnt so easy. I dont understand something. People complain that they get to 'end game' within hours (or maybe not complaining, they are bragging) of starting a new world, but then no one wants gregtech recipes? People talk about...

    Family Gaming

    We played on a friends server and the guy running it wouldn't give anyone any admin privileges.

    What if every mod had a Gregtech version?

    IMO there is no right or wrong with gregtech arguments, everyone likes to progress at different speeds and everyone has different ideas on how 'hard' the game should be. So why couldn't each mod just have configs to enable harder or easier recipes, and let the players decide what they want? It...

    It doesnt seem to be. It appears the xp was being sucked out by my Coin of Fortune. I shut it off and now i get NO xp at all. Normally the turtles would leave xp that i would get when i got close, now nothing happens at all. Right clicking or even breaking the jar gives me no xp. Turn on the...
