I had the same problem, and found a solution after searching: Disable liteloader in JarMods. voxelmap doesn't seem to work without it, but it lets you hear sounds from Railcraft, Twilight Forest, XReliquary, and probably others I haven't discovered yet.

Aha, so I need a much larger node to make that work. Thanks! It's hard to find specifics on how this stuff works...

Episode 66: Who took my aura node?

Oh wow, that could be it indeed. The first time I noticed that it was gone, I definitely had my goggles on when I stepped through the portal. I'll test and see if I can reproduce it, and avoid doing that in the future...

Something strange has happened in my world... I was experimenting with an aura node in the nether. My original thinking was that since the nether has no smooth stone naturally, I could place some, overcharge the node, and get it to infuse some stone that I place myself in a controlled manner. I...

Turtles have an extremely short range. In a 1x1 space, after hitting a skeleton once, the turtle will have pushed it to the far wall where it's out of reach. Last time I set up something like this, I had a water stream keeping mobs pressed right up against the turtle to make sure they're within...

Episode 65: Who took my buckets?

If you're using bees as a means of production and other people aren't, there are a lot of unique items available to you. Woven silk would be a good simple one. Required for bigger backpacks, can't get it without spending a bunch of time with bees...unless you use an uncrafting table on string...

Thermal Expansion Machine Frame. Built so many of those I can't possibly forget it! PCB is the same but with redstone instead of glass I think? Haven't built nearly as many of those. I assumed that was how everyone remembered these things. I guess not! Any time I need to craft something...

I've observed the sword of the zephyr damaging me when used against zombie pigmen specifically. I didn't have a vorpal enchant on it at the time, but I managed to get "ThemsAllTook was slain by ThemsAllTook" when attacking a group of them. BodyKuu! I see what you did there. :-D

Episode 64: Hopes and dreams

Yep, Industrious can be a tricky one to get. Here's what I normally do in that situation: - Have a few different breeding pairs of Diligent and Unweary going at the same time, all with max fertility. - When I get an Industrious hybrid or pure drone out of the mix but the princess is still...

As far as I'm aware, "mutation" always refers to species A and B combining to make species C. Stabilizing a hybrid line into a purebred line is something different. Now, if Industrious-Diligent could be bred to produce a different species entirely, you probably wouldn't want soul frames if...

Episode 63: SOUUUUUUUUUNDS!

I found this out the hard way the other day when I was moving one of the valves on my oil tank, and lost half the oil by doing it the wrong way... If you want to move a valve to a different spot in the tank, break the valve first. If you break a non-valve block, then break the valve while the...

Some great ideas here, I've been taking notes! A few of mine: Bees with certain effects are great at autokilling mobs. Unstable, Heroic, Aggres., and possibly Ends are all good choices. They don't seem to work on wisps though... Chainsaws can be used repeatedly on leaf blocks (for most tree...

I had a cart seemingly disappear on me, but relogging made it come back. I'd assume that's not the same thing that happened to you, since you'd end up with two carts after placing a new one?

From what I can tell, the best thing to do with nether diamond ore is to put it into an induction smelter with rich slag, then mine it with Fortune III. Rich slag gives 3 diamond ore per nether diamond ore, and Fortune III gives an average of 2.2 diamonds per block. Based on the above, it sounds...

If your server is whitelisted and you only play with friends you can trust, you'll all have a better experience and not have to disable anything. I've tried playing on a public server with controls in place to prevent griefing, and they really cripple the game experience in a lot of ways. Best...

When I first started playing FTB in the beta pack, I already had my hands full figuring out how to work all the new machines and things. GregTech added an extra layer of confusion on top of that, which got to me after a while, and I disabled it once I switched to the Mindcrack pack. More...
