    How to add custom lore books to my modpack?

    That sounds really cool, @joshie! Thanks for the info.

    Recent Events Discussion (RED) Thread

    Pardon the slightly off-topic response, but I had to: If you kill a bunny, your world gets set to hardcore mode. (Now that I think of it, I'd kind of like to see a mod add this)

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    They're upgrades for the magnetostatic and other tiered engines (I think only the pneumatic one also applies).

    How to add custom lore books to my modpack?

    I never said you couldn't, just that you had to write at least a small mod to call a method saying "here's the XML that defines what's in my book, here's the book's name, etc.." Am I wrong, can you define your own book without writing any Java at all? How does Agrarian Skies do it? I can't...

    I need advice.

    Sounds like the best starting point would be to grab the whole set of master configs rather than ripping them out of a pack, then.

    How to add custom lore books to my modpack?

    I think Enchiridion just adds an API for mods to define richer-formatted books with (peeking at the Mariculture jar file, it looks like the book contents would be an XML-based domain-specific language).

    How to add custom lore books to my modpack?

    Could they be just vanilla written books? Once signed, they can't be edited anymore, and giving them as HQM quest rewards should work.

    I need advice.

    Um... I was under the impression that all the packs had all the non-conflicting configs -- this being what the FTB master configs are all about. Did I misunderstand something?

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    As far as the 1.6 version is concerned, it's almost certainly still a per-connection limit, as per issue #540 of github/CrazyPants/EnderIO. He does mention changing things around, though, so all bets are off of how they are currently. ...I guess I could peek at the code. I mean, it's *right there*.

    Agrarian skies bonemeal problem?

    The sapling bonemeal mechanic is a vanilla behaviour. It sounds like Cauldron is based on a version of Minecraft where saplings can be insta-grown on first use of bonemeal. Similarly, it might be a bug in it. The only workaround I could imagine being effective is having a mod that replaced...

    cant launch ftb unleashed

    Safest would be to delete it. It probably got a little corrupted and there's some invisible character in there that doesn't make sense in UTF-8 encoding. Edit: Specifically, I'm referring to Core.cfg, not the other. Though it might be safe to delete both -- I don't think COFHCore has any block...

    Modding Help Line

    Start simple: make a block with inventory. Make sure the inventory saves when expected. Give it a crafting recipe. Make it consume power (of your favourite kind). Make it do something with the power. Make the GUIs update when they should. This should keep you in trouble for the next week or...

    Minetweaker Server Issues

    Looks like #15 on the MineTweaker 3 issue tracker. Definitely a bug in MineTweaker itself, not something you broke.

    Simple railcraft tank question

    You could do partial-output gating with two or more RC tanks on top of each other, since each can output independently of the others. I could even think of a reason to do it: power the manually-operated machines in your base from the bottom-most tank (always on), your AE system from the next...

    Help Cheat menu no longer works!

    I'm pretty sure -1 is the one that doesn't lock. And it's already set. @idjmleader, perhaps you could check the NEI global/world toggle again, and see if the world settings are overriding the global settings at all? If they are, the [W] to the left of the world-specific setting will be lit up...

    What's the point of RotaryCraft?

    I believe that's what a friend of mine terms the "Premature Optimization" achievement: acquire diamonds before making a pickaxe. It's not impossible, you just need a cave with some diamonds and a well-placed creeper...

    Chunk flashing due to optifine? Anyone else get this?

    Honestly, that's been my impression, as well. I get a more stable, and often higher, framerate without it. It could be that I've misconfigured it, but there aren't really that many knobs to tweak and most of them don't seem to do anything.

    Chunk flashing due to optifine? Anyone else get this?

    There's a mod around that only removes the depth fog; if that's all you're using Optifine for, you may consider replacing it (personally, I've given up on Optifine, given this and the zoom mod).

    Simple railcraft tank question

    Valves placed on the bottom layer of a tank will automatically eject fluid -- no extraction is necessary. And further note, tanks can be mounted on top of each other, as long as both tanks have a valve where they meet. Fluids piped into the top tank will automatically flow down into the bottom...

    Request Suggest mods for creation here

    I can't say as it grabs my attention, but if it's something you want to work on, go for it. You'll probably find that Minecraft modding has fairly little to do with the programming language compared to how important it is to learn the APIs available through Forge. Good luck!
