    FTB Ultimate (ftbserver.jar) and McMyAdmin

    Greetings. We are wanting to upload a new FTBU world that we've been testing to a commercial server, but unfortunately, McMyAdmin won't recognize the 'ftbserver.jar' file. It hangs with an error looking for FTB-beta-A.jar. I have contacted MCMA about this, but until then, would it work if we...

    World Leaks.

    My bad...TT = TickThreading mod by Nallor. You can find his thread in the the Server Admin forum.

    Pros/Cons of Mindcrack to Ultimate

    I'm no expert on these mods, but I have looked at the config files after our server decided to make the change (from MC to Ultimate). NetherOres looks like a bit of fun. A chance of having ores explode, nearby pigmen turning hostile when an ore is mined. I like it. Of the ones in your list, I'd...

    World Leaks.

    Thanks for the link--was interesting reading. From out point of view, I'd have to agree with one of the posters in that thread: we didn't see any significant change in performance regardless of whether we kept a chunkloader in each dimension or let them leak. I could see the error, but with the...

    TickThreading - concurrent entity/tile entity ticks and other optimisations

    Likely the the dumbest question in the thread...but, in follow up to my earlier post (371) We decided to wipe the server of Mindcrack and start a new Ultimate server. I loaded everything on my local machine (i7 3820), installed TT, used your command line suggestion, gave the server 8Gs and...

    Pros/Cons of Mindcrack to Ultimate

    I attempted to convert by d/l the world from our hosted server and doing the conversion on my home machine. As Ultimate has several of the extraBiomes disabled, I tried to remember which ones were enabled in MC and turned them on. So far, I'm seeing ok results. A few errors here and there, but I...

    ChickenChunks.cfg question

    BC quarries and portal guns keep their own chunks open, so no, as far as I know they don't won't work with that config option. (The rest was free advice.) Did I hit it that time?

    Pros/Cons of Mindcrack to Ultimate

    We've been running Mindcrack for a few weeks and the guys are wanting to start using FTB Ultimate. What do you think pros/cons would be of taking an existing world and slapping it into Ultimate? Right now, Mindcrack is such a resource hog that I don't know how we can run Ultimate and keep the...

    ChickenChunks.cfg question

    Buildcraft quarries and portal guns keep their own chunks open. They won't need a chunkloader to operate correctly. We're trying to keep portal guns out of the mix for now as we think they drag too much on the CPU. We've also started limiting quarry size to one chunk (16 x16 blocks).

    ChickenChunks.cfg question

    I'm no expert on chunkloaders, so what I write may be wrong. However, my understanding (and what we've found to be the case on our server) is that a chunk loader replaces you, or the player so to speak. So once the size of the chunk is set (eg, 3 chunks) anything in that area is treated the same...

    TickThreading - concurrent entity/tile entity ticks and other optimisations

    Response from the host: no. :( which was not unexpected, I guess. I'll consider your alternative option. Yes, in reading through *every* post in that thread, she/he has one serious attitude problem. We were really only interested in aPerf, as the MyTown thing doesn't interest us...

    TickThreading - concurrent entity/tile entity ticks and other optimisations

    heh...well I filed a support ticket to ask them about installing TT and they don't understand the purpose of TT and therefore (at least right now) don't have an opinion. Is there something similar to your mod for bukkit servers? They are very familiar with bukkit, but not so much with Forge...

    TickThreading - concurrent entity/tile entity ticks and other optimisations

    Our intention is to install aPerf on our server to improve performance. aPerf requires PermissionsEx and this mod be installed first. I've read a few dozen posts in this thread over the past few days and the only remaining concern I have is the Pactchme step. We rent space from a commercial host...

    Adding Machines and Lag

    I think yes, although I'm not qualified to explain all the reasons why. Today, for example, we had everyone shut down everything--all machines, chunkloaders, etc and the CPU load dropped from 100% to less than 5%. You can't play Mindcrack without machines, however, so we're looking at ways to...

    Need advice on a few server management issues

    Care to teach an old dog some new tricks? A few buddies and myself decided to rent some server space and start a MC server about a month ago. Wanting to keep things running in top form, I've been trying to educate myself in how best to manage this beast. We currently use Mindcrack and do not...

    World Leaks.

    Here is the result of following your instructions. I hope it is helpful in solving the issue. Let me know if I can do anything else. http://pastebin.com/FPZz927j ---> added later I had everyone unload every chunkloader and quarry and restarted the server. Even with the leak errors, CPU...

    World Leaks.

    I went to each world (ie, Nether, End, TF) and placed chunkloaders. I made sure they were working and rebooted. What you see is the result. I don't know enough about this sort of thing to know why things are happening the way they are. I just know I'm getting the world leak error. And by...

    World Leaks.

    We've been getting the "leak" error as well, but fortunately, it hasn't driven lag off the charts like some of you have experienced. I tried the 'chunkloader' trick as mentioned earlier in the thread (thanks!), but it eventually proved ineffective. Here's the tail-end of the log file as the...

    Hybrid Energetic bees and lightning

    heh...well alrighty then. I'm curious as to why you're rehashing what you stated earlier. This will be the last post I make in this thread, but before I go, I'll address your points (yet again). I changed the title of the thread to "Hybrid Energetic", which is more accurate. My apologies for...

    Hybrid Energetic bees and lightning

    @egor66 @Velotican Thank you both for your observations and input. I will pass your observations to our server and we, plus anyone researching this subject will be better off for it. I like a good mystery and would like to investigate whether or not her piping system may have played a role in...
