    I think I'm going to do something completely crazy...

    Welcome to the club. I stopped using those mods (as well as Railcraft) long ago, when I was trying to make my own pack as slim as possible and realized that I don't care/have better options for most of what they add. It's good to know that the old mods that kind of stopped in time have been...

    DW20 ModPack v1.0.14 can't find Blizzes :(

    Not really. With vanilla+TE3 alone you should be able to make some snow blocks, leave them in the dark, then stand 24 blocks away from them in a cold biome.

    DW20 ModPack v1.0.14 can't find Blizzes :(

    Well there's already something in the thread about a way to get them to spawn, which I'm pretty sure has been tested as well At least it's better than how it was in the betas, living in a snowy biome was annoying. I don't think this is going to be the final spawning behavior for them, though, or...

    Highlands, ExtraBiomesXL, ATG, Biomes o' Plenty or Vanilla? (Poll Included)

    BoP, simply because I can raise the landmass percentage. Going through oceans is something that gets boring really fast.

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

    What about anything for small, poor 32 bit systems? Currently I'm only using the ConcMarkSweepGC, and that's because I randomly found out about it while googling, but even that alone has been helping with the memory usage, especially when I go to different dimensions. As for the RAM allocation...

    DW20 ModPack v1.0.14 can't find Blizzes :(

    I read somewhere that they only spawn on snow blocks, as in the ones you make by crafting 2x2 snow balls. And only on cold biomes as well.

    Anyone have an idea how to quarry the nether?

    I'm pretty sure there is a version of Quarry Plus for 1.5, so you could try using one of those (although I have no idea of how to make the quarry delete liquids after its recipe changed to need the laser table).

    MFR tree farm

    If you're going to use fertilizer, I'm pretty sure a 1x1 farm is more efficient (unless your production of that is absurdly fast). I recommend using a modded tree that has the old bone meal mechanics, such as MFR's rubber tree.

    Which mods do you add manually?

    InGameInfo, ArmorStatusHUD and StatusEffectHUD (or whatever it was called). I'd probably add Dartcraft to Monster if I were playing it as well.

    Shoop LP [YT Season 2]

    Hey, this version of RR has Chocolate Quest! Go get a hookshot, Saice, it's not a Tarzan vine but it's as close as you can get.

    Why farm Mana Beans?

    One thing I like is how you can make that salt more easily with them, which leads to custom enchanting without needing the osmotic guy.

    MFR tree farm

    The larger a farm is, the longer the harvester will take to "notice" a tree has grown. This is why I'd rather have a default-sized farming setup, or one with the cobblestone upgrade in case I have a nice supply of MFR fertilizer from an animal farm.

    Infinite Lapis Lazuli

    Wouldn't it make considerably more sense to get 2 or 3 string per wool than having a smaller chance of getting dyes? They're small enough already, and only really abusable if you're going for the infinite loop (and once again only for bone meal, which yeah is the most useful and rarest item in...

    What are you currently playing?

    Nothing, waiting until I can replace my RAM sticks so I can play my poor man's private pack without getting a BSoD every thirty minutes. Using this chance to wait for TC4.1 as well, so I can (once again...) restart my map. Too lazy to grab the mod list right now, but it isn't anything special...

    Shoop LP [YT Season 2]

    Just watched the third video, and wanted to clear some things up about BoP redwood saplings. I just got curious about them one day and ran some tests so uh That thing about them needing to be 6 blocks away from other redwoods isn't entirely correct (I don't remember the exact number either, but...

    Mana beans

    Look in the BoP Github, any biomes with the Type.MAGICAL tag should work. This means Cherry Blossom Grove, Fungi Forest, Garden, (Thinned) Mystic Grove, (Thick) Ominous Woods, every Promised Lands biome, and Sacred Springs. AM2's Witchwood Forest and some other modded biomes might also have that...

    Mana beans

    Update MFR, go to a biome with the magical tag (such as even a fungi forest, a garden or a cherry blossom grove), set the usual planter/harvester combo with jungle wood (or planter/fruit picker if you want to use any other wood), and it's done. Feel free to forget about beans while they get...

    Thaumcraft 4; afraid to use crucible

    Go ahead and drop a MFR Deep Storage Unit in those. I mean, it's not like all those trillions of aspect points could do anything bad.

    Moo Moo farm???

    No, there is no cow level.

    Mekanism: Feature Request Thread

    Is this still alive? If so, I'd like to suggest some sort of super bucket-like thing, or a tank that you can use in your hand to scoop up liquids in the world. It could do something like having an input and an output mode, changed with the usual shift-right clicking, obviously scooping thins up...
