I've played a lot of modded Mineraft in the past, up until 1.7.x. Then Kerbal Space Program happened, and I've not touched it since. Now I discover that we're at 1.10.x, and that there was a huge watershed somewhere in between those two versions, and a lot of my favorite old mods did not port...

Here's a candid screenshot: https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/44754370/spambots.png Taken on Monday the 15th of September, 07:40 UTC. Of the top 15 threads (below the stickies) in General FTB Discussion, 9 are advertising threads. That is no longer "sorry for the occasional spam post", this...

I've recently started up a new Minecraft server for friends and me after a half-year hiatus. It's still 1.6.x for now (because not all mods that we wanted have ported yet), but even with that, there's quite a few things and even a number of mods that I've never tried before. Thing is, between...

I have a server based on Techworld 2 (but with updated mod versions) that I play on with a friend - there's just the two of us. I start it up only when both of us have time to play together. For the first two evenings, this ran fine. Then sometime in the middle of the third, my friend started to...

...how do I get a server GUI? Seems MCPC+ ships without one, and my Google-Fu is weak (I only get year-old results or worse that have nothing to do with what I want to know).

For a test I am doing, I need something that can store MJ in a block or battery that will show its charge level. In older versions I'd use TE's energy cells but in 1.6.4 they don't store MJ anymore. I'm specifically looking for something that stores MJ itself, not a different form of energy...

I'm observing an odd behavior with my server. I don't have any issues with it being there, but I'd like to understand why it happens - so here's hoping that somebody knows more about this than I do. Basically, I regularly see machines working in unloaded chunks. I can't even recall ever seeing...

Hey you! Yes, you! Do you want to breed some trees? No? Bit of a hassle, you say? Can’t be arsed to manually refill a beehouse all the time, or breed a bee that handles it reasonably quickly? Would you maybe like to breed some trees if the breeding happened all by itself, then? What if it...

This is a public service announcement for anyone who happens to have a 1.6.x world and is running Buildcraft. CovertJaguar just published 4.1.0 today. Thanks mate! Among other things, it included a much-appreciated tweaking of combustion engine mechanics that returned them to perfect working...

I am looking to ban a single recipe on a custom 1.5.2 pack server. I know of three ways to achieve this: 1.) Set the ID of the item to 0 in the config file sometimes works 2.) Shadwdrgn's Recipe Remover 3.) Forge Essentials Unfortunately, 1.) does not work because the item in question is...

Here is the launcher log: http://pastebin.com/KzXc5G7U I've been playing on and off in a Mindcrack 8.1.1 world for a month or two now. The launcher is set fixed to that particular version, and as such, there are never any updates running. It all worked fine until yesterday... but today, all of...

So, for those of you who missed it - in 1.5.x, King Lemming and his crew brings us the capability to change skins ingame via a chat command. And: those skins don't have to be Minecraft's standard 64x32 - they can be higher resolutions too! HD skins, if you will. The question is though... how...

My Thanks Go Out To: - solidity, who wrote the original LUA script to simulate boiler heatup, which served as the base for mine - MilConDoin, who provided me with a couple formulas I was missing and pointed me towards the script in the first place !Attention! This article was written during...

I've been looking into nuclear reactors today. You should know this because before today, I have never broached the subject matter at all. So, consider me a newbie. One competent in the use of his brain, but a newbie nonetheless. I will be building myself a set of four...

Introduction There used to be an introduction here, but then, once upon an edit, the forum helpfully reminded me that I can only have 10,000 characters in a single post. For your benefit, the introduction has been sacked. Blutricity 101 1.) Blutricity is modeled after real electricity...

Hey all, now that Redpower is finally with us and the various FTB packs for 1.4.6 are coming out, I thought I would start looking at the various configs to see what tweaks I want to make for my next long-term world. And traditionally, the first thing I look at is worldgen. On this topic, the...

I've never touched Mystcraft so far (too much else to try out), and I won't be able to today, so I must sate my curiosity on the forums instead. Can a book stand / lectern be used to hold and access a vanilla written book? ( www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Book_and_Quill )

Quick question. According to the Forestry wiki, biogas engines can burn Railcraft's creosote oil. However, when trying this out ingame, the engines won't accept it. Not from buckets, not from cells or cans or capsules. It doesn't seem to be a valid fuel at all. Has anyone had success doing this?

Yesterday when tinkering and browsing recipes, I somehow ended up along a line of thought that concluded with "you can pretty much make everything that exists in the nether without going there nowadays". At which point I stopped, blinked, and went on to entertain the thought of such a world, and...
