    Gunpowder

    No. I have no idea why you are in a savannah biome with such a high temperature, it makes no sense. Also, I'm not sure what pack your playing on and if it makes a difference, but I've been basing everything off the most recent version of Mindcrack.

    Gunpowder

    All right, I'm done arguing about this. I mean no disrespect to you DoctorOr, but I think that it is obvious for both of us that we're not going to reach a verdict. I know that I won't give in until I see some definitive evidence or until Sengir tells me I'm wrong, and I'm sure you feel the...

    Gunpowder

    By new wiki, I did not mean there was an old one, I just meant that wiki is newer than the unofficial one. Maybe I should have specified. I am most definitely not wrong, as I have gone through the breeding and had to breed in the nether. I have found multiple sources all stating that the bee...

    Gunpowder

    The website you are referring to is the new wiki, and is not completed. Seeing as the unofficial wiki has been around for longer and many more people have gone through and seen the information and had the chance to correct it, I would guess that both are at least equally valid. Also, I...

    Gunpowder

    Again, your doing something strangely if you have in fact made this mutation, look at the tab labeled Austere on this link to the wiki here, and you'll see that it says they can't be bred unless in the nether or with alveary heaters: http://ftbwiki.org/Bee_Species Also, the point to the mutator...

    sorting machine not working

    I think you need to give a bit more information. First off, it looks to me like the sorting machine has no input, a better angled picture would be useful. Also, what happens when the sorting machine receives ores? Are they kept in an internal storage, or do they drop out as items?

    Forestry Hill Cherry Tress not producing cherries

    It could also be that your cherry tree has an incredibly low yield rate. Even so, you would still have gotten some cherries. How long have the trees been planted. Also, you should be able to check your yield rate on the analzyer, maybe in Slot I?

    Gunpowder

    I think your incorrect. I tested mutating Austere bees on the overworld for quite a while, with almost every possible way to boost mutation chance. I then learned from a Generikb video that you can only breed Austere bees in the Nether, I went and tried it, and now have an Austere farm pumping...

    Gunpowder

    I'm sorry, but you kind of have no proof... I invite anyone to spawn in a master apiarists database, or use a normal one, and see that the mutation chance is 0% when in the overworld. You currently have no proof, and I do, so until you show me a video of you breeding an Austere in the overworld...

    Gunpowder

    Although it is true that Austere will only make the gunpowder producing combs in a desert/arid biome, they do have to be mutated in the nether. I have done this myself. If you look in a master apiarists database, it will show the percent chance of a mutation as being 0% if you are in the...

    Gunpowder

    I'd suggest going with bees, but only if you've already started breeding a bit. The bee you'd be looking for is Austere, which needs to be bred in the nether, unless using alveary upgrades. It's fairly low on the mutation chain, so if you really want gunpowder, even one apiary or alveary setup...

    Bee Rainfall Serum?

    I'm working on an alveary now, but they're really expensive, as I'm sure you all know. I've automated my bee setup so when they die, the princess and a drone are put back and any combs and excess drones go through in to my house for centrifuging. I can use proven frames since i have a few...

    Bee Rainfall Serum?

    Offnote side question. What bee has the fast worker trait. I've got imperials and industious that i want to work fast for their jelly and pollen, but i dont have anything with fast worker. I thought it was cultivated, but all mine are still slow. Is it something else, or did I just accidentally...

    Bee Rainfall Serum?

    Oh, sweet! I've been looking for that trait serum! I didn't know that was what it was called, I thought it would be something more obvious. Thanks!

    Bee Rainfall Serum?

    Hey everyone, I've been bee breeding for my friends on my server for a while now, and have just started getting some mineral bees like iron, copper, tin, and lead. I always try to make a species serum for these bees so i can have multiple apiary setups with them. However, when I was isolating...

    Thaumcraft wand not charging

    Hey, a bit late to the discussion, but i believe i have this bug, but I'm the only one on my server who uses TC, so a. will the regeneration of nodes in the config mess with anything on the server, and b. if i really don't want to do that, can i just grow a new silverwood tree and use its aura...

    Backpack Config Help?

    This all seems like an annoyingly large amount of work. I was planning on using the backpack for tons of random different things, like when i'm setting up my oil rig and i have TONS of components. I'll probably just do it without the extra space. Thanks anyway!

    Backpack Config Help?

    Hello forums! So, a friend of mine who runs the mindcrack pack server we play on found out about forestry backpacks, and the fact that the adventurers backpack is supposed to be configured to your liking. I'd love to make it so that I can hold any and all items in it, so that i get a few more...

    Purifying Aura for ThaumCraft

    Alright, thanks for the help. I guess i'll just have to wait it out, but I use TC stuff so often, I might have some turtles kill the wisps. Thanks again everyone!
