    FTB Newsletter May 2016

    I'm not here to go into an argument with someone. However when under a personal attack I feel responsible to defend myself. I've been modding and programming for a long long time. - Became interested back when unreal & quake were a thing. In the modding community I went from wc3 to now active...

    FTB Newsletter May 2016

    I was not complaining, merely showing my amazement that there are hardly any well known modpacks (not only ftb) that utilize the massive number of new features in newer versions of minecraft. To put it frankly to me it still seems modpacks - and mods themselves- work on a version of minecraft...

    FTB Newsletter May 2016

    I'm honestly wondering this - and sorry for asking as I know it's commonly bad conduct to bug people; But will FTB ever evolve past 1.7? 1.8 has been out for what, two years? 1.9 is already out quite long and most major mods have progressed to there. On top of that new mods are completely...

    Feedback wanted on server idea, SMP + towns and GriefPrevention

    I've never played on a server yet - but: Is there still no (ftb) launcher + server software that will actually download the pack while you connect to a server? That's something 99% of all multiplayer sandbox games already have. Really, why is this not done in any of the launchers yet...

    How does one get mycellium in this mod btw? I'm kind of stuck at getting mushrooms.

    Let's talk about IC2

    I wish however there were mods to do more smooth armor switching - Just like iron man walk over a spot and your armor switches to a specified gear.

    Why do you need? Just overlay your base with charge pads.

    Check the recipes - using agricraft you can get them (all?). Start crossbreeding with the ones you get from sieving dirt (pumpkin, wheat, melon). - Or from a mob farm (carrot, potato).

    Hobbyist generator (engine?) can also handle lava just fine.

    Then why aren't you playing creative? Or peaceful?

    FTB Infinity Skyblock 1.7.10 Help, Venting and Discussion Thread

    I really really like the expert recipes - forcing you to go "different mods" and actually see progression - instead of just going from tinker's construct tools to lategame infinite single block automation in a few hours. I do kind of miss a HQM storyline though - especially a "limited" but...

    FTB Infinity Skyblock 1.7.10 Help, Venting and Discussion Thread

    Well I just don't wish to have another "magic boxes" world. If I want that I could easily create my own mods to bring me all the stuff I want. - I really like when you have to puzzle and make large machines (tinker's smeltery is a good example of a non-complex but still non magic box structure...

    FTB Infinity Skyblock 1.7.10 Help, Venting and Discussion Thread

    I'm sorry if this has been asked already - but I'm kind of stuck. I just created a blast furnace - but to upgrade it, and go further I need to created sheet metals - so using the metal press. However these require molds, which in turn require already the steel plates. What route to go from...

    Repairing/recycling monster armor drops

    hmm those aren't in my modpack it seems (buildcraft / railcraft / minefactory reloaded)

    Repairing/recycling monster armor drops

    Well in my modpack gold is a premium item (no nether). So I made a zombie farming system from which I can get the equipment. This works decently well: however hand-combining golden equipment gets quite tiresome. So I'm wondering i there's a way to combine equipment automatically. The crafter...

    Thaumcraft essentia piping...

    I haven't tried the newest iteration: but right now all I can say is: don't... Jars use "suction", so unless you use (manual) valves all essentia will see is the first jar. Jars also suck essentia indiscriminately: so they will just suck up any essentia untill they have at least 1 of a single...

    Large RF throughput systems

    Hmm I kind of like the tradeoff that transceiver gives (no placing of wires/infinite throughput at a minor loss).

    Large RF throughput systems

    Well I'm using a modpack with quite some technical mods - and I just started a big reactor. After having dozens of self-supplying rf systems that have a by-product of creating useful items (magma crucible -> stirrling, or auto farmer -> wheat -> bread -> culinary generator). But the first...

    [1.7.10 | Unlisted] Obscurity - Jampacked 2 Winner

    Hmm guess that's also possible. But anyways, I just updated to 1.1.14 - and now the miner is shooting ores all over the place - can this be updated with a simple setting change?

    [1.7.10 | Unlisted] Obscurity - Jampacked 2 Winner

    How do people handle the tools for the miners/woodcutters? I've lost a "clumsy+" steel pickage with moss 3 on the PA miner already.. Is there a way to automate the repairing etc? - Or more importantly to pump out when the pick is nearly broken? EDIT: I don't see version 1.1.15 yet though...
