    Forum game: Smash your Head on a Keyboard.

    Alright, so what you do is smash your head on a keyboard, and then make an acronym for the letters you get. Bonus points if the letters actually spell a word with more than 3 letters. (Be gentle in your smashing) (And keep it appropriate, please) yhn rt Yellow Hippopotamuses Need Righteous...

    Bees losing traits?

    Not sure if this is a bug or a balance feature, but the other day on my test world my perfect breeding pair of valuable bees (inoculated with excellent quality serum for elongated life, fast productivity, and high (3 drones) fertility) were put in an alveary with 17 frame housings, each with 1...

    Are Platinum bees worth it?

    I've toyed with the idea of making platinum bees my main source of iridium, since I enjoy bee breeding. But when I played with one in creative I had second thoughts. I set up an isolater/synthesizer/purifier/inoculator setup just like you would in survival, and it took a whole lot of time and BC...

    Solved Weird player behaviour? [SERIOUS]

    I run a ftb server on my personal computer (I run my client on there as well). My specs: Mindcrack 8.0.1 Windows 7 1 gig allocated 2 player server Mods installed manually: Optifine 1.4.6 HD U C3 (Doubt that's the problem is this because this only happens on my server, not in ssp)...

    Forestry beekeeping difficulty

    In the forestry config there is a setting to change beekeeping difficulty. Easy, Normal, Hard, Really Hard (I think), and Insane. Can someone tell me how these settings affect bees? Things like mutation chance, production rate, hive drop rate, etc?

    Problem Redpower/Traincraft ID conflict [SEVERE]

    I've been abstaining from updating to Mindcrack v8 because of all the trouble I've heard people having. I finally broke down and updated, but now I'm seeing those problems myself. At first there was an ID conflict between Twilight forest and Buildcraft, reloading the config folder fixed that...

    How to change the extrabiomesxl biome colours?

    I'm pretty sure it's not in the vanilla grasscolour.png file. Changing the forest colour in that doesn't change the forested hills colour in extrabiomes, so I'm guessing there is another file?

    Wither Skeleton Soul Spawners

    I've heard that you can autokill mobs spawned by soulcages and still get drops (blazes normally drop rods only when killed by hand, if you autokill them when they've come from a cage, they still drop rods). Does this work with wither skulls?

    Bee refining

    So I have my corroded bees, which produce copper. Copper is annoyingly rare since it generates in the higher layers of the map and I tend to mine lower down. Corroded bees produce a copper comb every 25 minutes or so. Is it possible to breed them with, say, a cultivated bee (has a very fast...

    How to "Discover" bee species?

    It used to be that the apiarists database showed all bee species. Now, it's blank. I've heard that you need to discover bees now, but I have no idea how to. Running a bee through a beealyser does nothing, and neither does putting one in an apiary. Anyone know how to discover bees?

    Request for a turtle mining script?

    So I've been looking into turtles, and I want to make a quarry with them. Here's what I want: Variable size (I probably won't go higher than 64x64) Automatic refueling/unloading Ability to unload into an enderchest (not sure if that has to be built into the script so I just thought I'd make...

    Gregtech End Ores useless?

    Right now, the End ores that gregtech adds are mostly useless. Here is a list of them, in order of most useful to most useless: Sheldonite: Yellow texture, hard to spot in the similarly coloured endstone. Macerating it gives you platinum dust, which can be centrifuged for iridium. The most...

    Thaumcraft Transmutation

    So I've recently started playing around with Thaumcraft. I have Basic Transmutation, Tin Transmutation, and Iron Transmutation. I know that tin isn't usually there, so it must have been added by a mod. That makes me wonder, is there any way to get precious materials (iridium, platinum, diamonds)...

    Vorpal Enchantment working on Wither Skeletons?

    So I recently figured out what the Redpower vorpal enchantment does. It gives the mob a chance to drop a head. I immediately thought of wither skulls. So I went to the nether with a vorpal 4 diamond sword and spawned a large number of skeletons. I got no heads from the withers, but the skeletons...
