    The Langoliers ModPack [JamPacked2] [Release] [v1.0.1] [Curse]

    I finally got the most basic sieve automation set up... only to find that the sieves have been configured not to allow it in this pack. (Autonomous activator can place gravel in the sieve, but not sift it.) So I'm going to say that yeah, there should be a quest fairly early on that tells you...

    The Langoliers ModPack [JamPacked2] [Release] [v1.0.1] [Curse]

    Ah, so the idea isn't to sit around in the boat when you're not doing anything, but to slowly shuffle around in the boat when you don't need to get somewhere particularly quickly? Given the boat's propensity to sink through the top layer of blocks, I think I'll just walk! ;)

    The Langoliers ModPack [JamPacked2] [Release] [v1.0.1] [Curse]

    Day 1: ate nothing Night 1: ate nothing. Used enough bonemeal to get ~36 soybeans. Have some pressing. Cactus placed. Of the starter reward bags, one had berry bushes, the others were worthless. Berry bushes placed. Day 2: Ate 5 silken tofu. Several barrels set up hoping for rain. Tree...

    The Langoliers ModPack [JamPacked2] [Release] [v1.0.1] [Curse]

    Yeah, that's the problem I had with world #2. Edit: No, wait, world 2 I had my bed on top of some of the tree's original logs. But most of the blocks around it were leaf blocks, which probably have the same problem. (World 3 was where I had my bed on top-slabs, but I never actually slept in...

    The Langoliers ModPack [JamPacked2] [Release] [v1.0.1] [Curse]

    Yeah, I did no-sleep on my third world and still never got any rain. Though I think that was my fastest loss, too, just a few nights in. (And since I hadn't slept, no safe respawn!) Is there a particular amount of time to the first rainfall? (I think AgSkies had it specifically configured to...

    The Langoliers ModPack [JamPacked2] [Release] [v1.0.1] [Curse]

    Hi! I've tried this pack three times in the last few days, but I keep starving to death. Even with the two stacks of bonemeal, I run out. I have not once seen it rain, and I've never seen anything grow naturally, only with bonemeal. Since you can't bonemeal cactus, that means I can't get...

    Yeah, I looked up the glider on day 1, having loved it in the last pack we played (Crash Landing). Glider plus nether travel might not be so bad -- and I mismathed last night, it'd be ~500 blocks in nether, not ~800. I'll try getting us out to Savanna tonight.

    Ah, that's good info about the how the skillups work -- it explains the problem we've had. We've been looking all over for a Savanna for like a week, with no luck. I finally gave in and loaded it up in Amidst -- closest one is about 4000, 5000 blocks away. O_o We'd actually found a smallish...

    Hunting XP seems incredibly slow. On the small server I play on, we've been grinding it for ~11 days, and the highest anyone's gotten is 20-- that's frequently hitting blood hunt and full moon, and hanging out in extreme hills and jungles, when not off exploring other dimensions. Is there a...

    Magic Farm 2 mined blocks frequently pop back in

    FWIW, I found the problem: my memory allocation had somehow gotten dropped back down to the default 1GB. Bumping that back up to a reasonable value fixed things.

    Magic Farm 2 mined blocks frequently pop back in

    Yeah. But it's single player, and it doesn't happen with trees, just with dirt/stone, as far as I've seen.

    Magic Farm 2 mined blocks frequently pop back in

    I'm just getting started with Magic Farm 2, and digging dirt (with a shovel or by hand) and digging stone (with a flint TiCo pick) frequently results in the block popping back in a moment after it is harvested. Is this intended? Is there a fix?

    A few Horizons questions

    With an ATG world, where ought I look for clay? I haven't seen any in ocean or ponds, and I've yet to find any medium-sized bodies of water. Lots of mud, though -- lots and lots of mud.

    A few Horizons questions

    Thank you both. I checked the ground cover closer, and there was indeed poison ivy in the area that I kept getting poisoned. The faster poison speed was coming from walking through multiple blocks (or standing in one wondering what the heck was going on). After closing the game and...

    A few Horizons questions

    What keeps poisoning me while I'm wandering around outside? It seems to be a particular area, but not tied to a particular biome. Is there a way to prevent it? Why does the poison sometimes tick much faster (double speed?) than regular poison? For the Tinker's Construct stuff, does the...

    FTB 1.2.5 Pyramid Challenge - Insanity

    Thanks! Took about 50 tries, but it eventually worked! Got some Ghast Tears and Magma Creams in the process, too.

    FTB 1.2.5 Pyramid Challenge - Insanity

    I figured out that one way to get reeds is UU-matter. (In 1.2.5 all the UUM recipes are secret, unlike 1.4.x where only a few are.) Items of power complete, and finally I can get blutricity! Still curious about the blaze rods, though.

    FTB 1.2.5 Pyramid Challenge - Insanity

    A couple questions: 1) Is it possible to get Blaze Rods in insanity? Is there a hidden recipe similar to the glowstone? (For that matter, is there any way to tell NEI to display hidden recipes?) At this point I've got quite a bit of EMC generation through redpower, but it's starting to lag...
