Put it on the ground, then left click it with an empty hand. There's a good web page about it that you should read so you're familiar with all the tricky things it can do. Be aware that in Hubris, it will NOT spawn when you die on areas that have crusted taint, which means sometimes it ends up...

I had one Hubris where I went through a TF portal at roughly sea-level and found myself on top of one of those giant canopy trees and had to tunnel down like fifty blocks to reach the ground. I think it's a little wonky with verticals, but I've never heard of someone appearing underground before.

What was the y-altitude of the original TF portal in the Overworld? And what was its altitude in the Forest? Was the Overworld portal damaged somehow or is it still fine? And does this happen with every TF portal you go through or just one location?

Very cool. Having it as an in-game fix with an in-game quest to tell people what to do is much more immersive (and will be less intimidating than trying to find and create a file, for those folks who aren't terribly computer-literate).

I guess the way I look at it is, well...I'm getting my heads from the same place you're getting your source of zombie flesh (I imagine!) without having to use AM2 or EE3 at all. Just staying alive has gotten me a ton of heads. :D On the other hand, I've been camping out lately in a great wide...

I can't answer about the potions, but I can't imagine that cobblestone (and those others) somehow accidentally had their fluff text changed, so I've assumed that was deliberate...Though I don't see the point. Mob heads are hardly difficult to acquire by the time you're putting an altar together...

Is this any worse than setting up an automatic charcoal farm or an automatic cake-maker? Vinteum dust and charcoal both have somewhere around the same EE value, I think?

It's a misinterpretation problem combined with a lot of bad experiences. The 'we have pretty active admins/mods,' 'arm twisting initiated' and 'we'll solve it by' caused my half-caffeinated brain to misunderstand that you were defensively representing the bad server in question, but going back...

That's nice, but none of the suggestions you're giving stop someone who finds someone else's base from deciding to create a dungeon smack in the middle of it. And I admit I'm curious about your activity, this isn't the first time someone has posted to this thread about logging into that server...

The ability to place a dungeon using the dark power quest reward does make a Banished server kind of a griefer's paradise. It might be advisable to recommend that server admins lock out or remove that quest. Yeah, that's what I figured. That's the way it usually is.

Griefers suck. Have you contacted the server admins? I'm not sure whether DrasticDemise is actually affiliated with that server or not, but there should be somebody easily contactable on the server (heh, I know, should is the important word, right?) to slap down people like that (and someone...

In the months since that first post was uploaded, no one other than you and Enepttastic has stepped forward saying they're having the same problem, which suggests it's something specific to your install. Things you should mention: Have you in any way modified the modpack? Any extra mods? Not...

Yeah, any Wikipedia article is only as accurate as the last idiot to edit it. It's convenient, but it's good to always check anything important with another resource. I sure wouldn't try to build a serious load-bearing bridge based on engineering details from Wikipedia. ;D And speaking of...

Alchemy has the same relationship to chemistry that astrology has to astronomy; they both led to real sciences, but neither of them were scientific, nor did they have the results their devotees said they did. They were more along the lines of magical or religious beliefs with no grounds at all...

I hope this isn't a shocking revelation, but in real life alchemy doesn't do anything at all. It was a mysticism-laden fore-runner of chemistry, and 99% of what early alchemists were attempting to achieve was about as real-life feasible as hatching dragon-eggs. Alchemical transmutation, the way...

This looks very interesting. I look forward to seeing when it goes beta.

Another completely underground, significantly-harder-than-normal pack is FTB Banished. It uses Kegare's Caveworld pack, among other things, has myriad types of dungeons (including user-summonable ones in return for rep...Don't try to put one near your base!) and it's all caves from Minecraft's...

Yeah, I think I'd agree with this, too. More biomes, and smaller biomes. I enjoy fighting mobs but travelling huge, long distances with things as deadly as they are is insanely risky. Is your Thaumcraft up to golem level yet? Golems make great tree farmers, have them stuff a furnace full of...

You can use a regular enchantment table just fine to do oldschool enchanting, but you will find that there are (fairly easy) methods in this modpack (including Silent's Gems and Thaumcraft) to control the enchants you get instead of dealing with vanilla randomization.

I mostly have just been dumping eggs and charcoal from my chicken farm and tree farm into my EE3 table...And it has been plenty to allow me to make a (I believe) very nice architectural build of a few towers inside a supercave area hollowed out between the junction of two chasms. Even with the...
