You're not running enough samples. If you go to any college/university in the world and take an entry level statistics course, you're going to be told likely on day one that fewer than 1000 samples is statistically insignificant due to the potential for outliers to influence the outcome on...

The context is a little more specific than ores in general. Do you understand what is meant by the word "context"? I know at least one person in this thread who doesn't.

Again, you're still talking about ore gen in a thread talking about diamonds. Why?

Couple of things. Very important: 1) You're not citing your sources. I cited mine. 2) This thread isn't about ore gen in general, it's about diamonds. We're not talking about ore gen in general, we're talking about diamonds. I don't give a rat's ass about gold, iron, or dirt. Moreover, I...

As I pointed out, the wiki for Minecraft describes diamonds as occurring in veins of 1-9 blocks. That's the vanilla Minecraft specification. This is what I'm talking about with people pulling numbers from their arse. Double check your source before you post bogus information so we don't start...

I'm afraid after years of theorycrafting for this online game or that I'm I've grown too cynical to find it amusing, so rather than make insinuations about what kind of mental state leads to the conclusion that a lucky streak indicates a change to spawn rate, I just try to stamp it out before it...

Minecraft wiki describes diamond ore as spawning in groups of 1-9 blocks. What I'm trying to do is help dispel this ongoing myth/concern that bad luck/good luck while mining is indicative of a change to spawn rates. The diamond spawn rates are just fine.

If you're ever curious, you can check out the World.cfg file in the CoFH config directory. It'll tell you exactly what you can expect to find and where you can expect to find it. It will also provide you with very clear indication if any values have been changed relative to their vanilla...

That's what ore generation refers to...the process of adding ore when the chunks are created.

It does work with Powersuits. It saddens me that the fix is still not common knowledge because it's been a conflict issue with OptiFine and MPS for months. Go into your MPS config, and disable Custom Font Rendering (and if it's there, Pixel Shaders). All conflicts with OptiFine including...

A lot of the crashing last week up to Friday was caused by the buggy implementation of mobs wearing IC2 armor. It was supposed to be some sort of Halloween "Easter Egg". I personally dislike it when mod devs add 'Easter Eggs' like that. (I almost dislike it even more when they call them...

I really dislike that. It's not even so much that I want the drops, it's that the gear is functional to some extent on the mobs (damage reduction) but there's no additional benefit to killing them. "Easter eggs" (which used to mean something different) are supposed to be fun and interesting...

Added link to Halloween video.

I see your Happy Halloween and raise you a Happy Halloween!

I'm afraid I see too many assumptions in there, and assumptions don't drive change. In fact, I'd say you're hurting your cause because you'll only be able to grow the idea so far before people start calling you on the relevance of the assumptions. It's not necessary to explain to me how things...

I can't help but wonder if there's not a better way. I understand the idea behind it and I'd much prefer to see something like this vs. a "boycott modders who distribute via adfly" kind of mentality. As someone who also receives a few dollars every month courtesy of ad revenue, however, I also...

It could be a version issue (ie. the version with the drop XP feature is not the version you're using) or it could be a bug in the API.

You're over-writing the peripheral.wrap assignment when you re-define x as "setAutoCollect(false)". That snippet of code should read x = peripheral.wrap("right") x.setAutoCollect(false) Done that way, x.dropLevels(30) should work because x will be assigned properly.

Updated with latest episode. (Ep 16)

Sometimes I read through a thread and think, "what language is this?" The words are English, but the sentences have no meaning... There's nothing anyone can do to help you when the best we're given to work with is "modded Minecraft". If you're using an FTB pack, it's helpful to name the pack...
