    1001 things to do in modded minecraft

    982. Power your whole base using only toast. 983. Power your base using molten metal cows and a numismatic dynamo. 983. Only get crops from phytogenic insulators. Is it bad luck if your cow full of liquid sunshine falls down a hole and dies?

    1001 things to do in modded minecraft

    That 976 mega train sounds like crazy fun. A minecart full of an item sounds like a new unit of measure for some future Avaritia mod to deal with. Maybe one train per mod slowly dragging down the tracks to infinity. Oh those darn fusion coils.

    958. Find or breed every Fluid Cow. Sort them by mod. Fill a drum with each fluid. 959. Chickens mod and MoreChickens mod. Catch breed hatch chase them all. 960. Move your base to the Daedalus labyrinth. Go random. 961. Forget disk drives and micro storage ... use ImpracticalStorage for all...

    923. Get the new Lost Cities mod. Forget you still have Battle Towers installed. So ... aggro the golems and let them rampage through the city. Don't worry there's plenty more city to explore.

    1001 things to do in modded minecraft

    901. During a killer migraine, describe the pain to your non-gamer wife as "like I just tried to drain the nether with a straw." Btw I have been really enjoying this thread. Just the right combination of real challenges, mishaps, fooling around and smart-ass suggestions. I won't call it 902...

    900. Stare at all the same drinks at 7-11 and just for a moment wonder why there are no cans of liquid xp.

    899. Copy over a favorite mystcraft age from another world and get so caught up in the nostalgia that you forget those old linkbooks back to the "overworld" might put you inside solid rock now.

    On the search for nostalgia (FTB Ultimate)

    What a fun quote. Sounds like something from the Hitchhikers Guide but not quite. Turning fps into fun is also a neat perspective, considering that all life on earth is just a side effect of dirty water being soaked in solar energy. A little geothermal boost too.

    On the search for nostalgia (FTB Ultimate)

    Actually I am thinking about putting one of my Ultimate worlds back up on a server. Will be talking to some of my regular crew today at a bbq. No rules other than respecting each other's property and trying not to build super laggy things that suck the life out of the server.

    888. When you finally do get another base setup that really needs a lot of power, forget where you left that thing from 886.

    887. A fun old exploit ... fill your hotbar with normal gravity guns then make a twilight forest portal. Stick your tongue out, get hit by lightning. Take the supercharged gravity guns to an uncrafting table to collect your nether stars.

    886. Spend hours building a second gregtech IDSU only to realize you won't get another billion EU storage, only share the billion you already had on hand.

    Auto peat

    Unless it has been nerfed in recent versions it should not take 40 minutes to get 20 blocks. I've had manual farms where it almost starts maturing before I can place 50 new blocks of bog earth. Is that area not chunk loaded? You don't need a water block under each one. One water block can...

    Hi. Nice to see someone still enjoying the classics. I went back to visit some of my old worlds recently and got so hooked on ultimate again ... soooooo many things to do there. I did open up a few worlds to friends over the years but due to the cost and them eventually wandering off, I don't...

    Blast resistant blocks (not blast proof)

    I know this question is a bit old. But we'd need to know the mc version you are using. If you go way back to 1.4.7 xycraft had these. And I always found the artifice walls to be a bit buggy with lighting. Using different mods there are endless choices, but for one more to have tiered blast...

    882. Give half your bees the Heroic effect and half the Beatific effect, and invite some mobs over to play. 883. Build a base solely out of harvestcraft food crates. 884. Make snow golems in Limbo. Perfect revenge for all those times the creepy monoliths stared at you. 885. Back in Limbo, test...

    880. Cheat your forestry butterflies by catching one in a safari net and using an MFR spawner to make a whole lot more. 881. Also a fun way to add color to a rival's base.

    FTBBETA-A existing servers

    Quick update. My FTB_Launcher was stuck on 1.1.4 and would not update itself. I manually grabbed 1.1.8 from the FTB home page, and the FTBBETAA modpack is back on the list. In any case, the argument stands: barring some serious legal challenge, we would all appreciate supporting our legacy...

    FTBBETA-A existing servers

    Hi Mark, Your message was so well spoken, I just had to signup and agree with you, and second your request for a statement regarding the future of our worlds. The FTBBETA modpack vanished from the launcher today -- so I can't get to the world I spent 40 or 50 hours building with friends; the...
