    Did we reach the point playing modded Minecraft requires multiple computers?

    The pack I am playing is pretty much end of life, no new update is planned. Seems we now need to play packs in less than three months, otherwise end of life, no support and bug=dead end+cheats to work around+constant frustration. Seems I will have to spend countless number of hours tearing...

    Did we reach the point playing modded Minecraft requires multiple computers?

    Will things improve post 1.12 or just get worse? Of course, current 1.15 is probably lighter as there are less mods. Seems the same thing happened again with 1.13: Mojang changed all sorts of things that broke every mod, and then modding just has to start over almost from scratch. Forge 1.15 is...

    Did we reach the point playing modded Minecraft requires multiple computers?

    Hi, I am having more and more problems with the modpack I'm playing on. The game crashes more and more regularly, without producing any logs so cannot file useful bug reports. Either the game exits without any reason, either it hangs. Loading the pack takes more than 10 minutes, then just...

    Creating Minecraft videos too time consuming

    Hi, I would like to know how people manage to create videos posted on YouTube, because what I tried is very tedious and time consuming. Each and every time, I end up having to spend hours in editing software cutting away some stuff and ending up with 45+ minutes episodes. I need to split, again...

    Making the beginning easier because of unstability

    But there is more than the lag and crashes. Nowadays, skyblock packs impose some form of progression and sometimes, the issues happen with that progression. In Modern Skyblock 3, I got a lot of difficulty assembling the pump jack and distillation tower. If I couldn't put these machines up, that...

    Making the beginning easier because of unstability

    Hi, Here is the link to the issue I filed about Modern Skyblock 3 taking large amounts of memory: https://github.com/EmosewaPixel/Modern-Skyblock-3/issues/661. Seems a problem with the 3.4 version, I had to downgrade to 3.3. In Sky Factory 3...

    Making the beginning easier because of unstability

    Hi, I have a Core i7 PC with 16Gb of RAM, and a NVIDIA graphic card. That should be able to run the game. I don't know the "correct" way of setting up automation. Mods are usually documented but not the point of showing how to troubleshoot or fine tune. So either there is debugging/profiling...

    Making the beginning easier because of unstability

    Hi, Since 1.10, I'm faced with dead ends because of modpack unstability. On Sky Factory 3, I almost had to stop playing on my map because of unsolvable lag issues. Now this starts again with Modern Skyblock 3 and everything I try just fail. Seems this time, I really won't have choice to switch...

    Blood Magic 2: cannot automate will production

    Hi, Automating will production cannot work, because it requires two rituals that have limited 7x7 range and cannot be placed at the same location. So either the crystals grow very slowly, or they need to be harvested manually with a tartaric gem containing more than 1024 will (so one hour of...

    Can't kill the Ender Dragon in Sky Factory 3

    Thanks. That's what I ended up doing. Punching the Dragon with a sword while landed was the only effective way to damage her. Arrows had no effect. I tried with both a Demonic-Manyullan Shuriken and Superium Bow with Power V, Infinity and Soul Bound.

    Closed Lag during wither fight

    Thanks. If it works in a test world, that probably means there is something else causing the issue, e.g., Windows 10 running all sorts of background task killing game's performance. Logs are pretty much useless; they just repeat the same information. I tried many times to find something out of...

    How do YOU Auto-spawn Withers?

    That's pretty much what I did. The problem is that the block placers can place the skulls before the soul sand, which prevents the Wither from spawning. Having some way to send a redstone signal on placers for soul sand first, then the skulls, then make sure no more soul sand or skulls get...

    How do YOU Auto-spawn Withers?

    How about 1.10? There is no OpenBlocks and no ComputerCraft. There is OpenComputers, but I'm not sure there are turtles in there and I would have to learn the mod's crafting components, Lua, the API, etc., just to make something place the soul sand then the heads. I tried with mechanical users...

    Can't kill the Ender Dragon in Sky Factory 3

    Hi, I am having a lot of trouble with this. It just does not work. The Dragon is immune to projectiles, even after the ender crystals are destroyed. It moves too fast so I cannot locate it until it regenerates. This is driving me insane. No matter how I try, I am just running into circles. Why...

    Closed Lag during wither fight

    Summary of the problem Lag during wither fight Pack Version 3.0.15 What is the bug? When I am fighting the Wither, the mob just freezes and does not react to any hit with the sword, then it unfreezes and fires a wither ball that gives the poison effect. This repeats and repeats until I...

    Open Game freezes and stutters regularly

    Summary of the problem Game freezes and stutters regularly Pack Version 3.0.9 What is the bug? Since I upgraded to Sky Factory 3.0.13, I am regularly experiencing severe lag. The game regularly pauses for a few seconds then resumes. Sometimes it reaches a point I have difficulty moving...

    Thanks for the tip. I got my program sorted out. I had to use the entity as the target for the Entity Look, not the caster, because my CAD was not powerful enough.

    Some progress: - I was trying to use Entity look as the director vector for the Add Motion trick, with the selector caster as target. The idea was to move the entity in the directory player was looking at. This doesn't work. I had to use the Entity look but with the moved entity as target, so...

    Psi Discussion Thread

    Hi, I'm stuck at level 5, the mod keeps telling me my CAD has too weak stats. It may be something I'm doing wrong with the add motion trick, I would like to have the target entity move up but there is no operator allowing it. Maybe yet another missing feature? Argh. I'm trying with the entity...

    Is 1.10 too young to play?

    Seems that the lag factors are Refined Storage, Ex Compressum (auto hammer/sieve), and Flux Networks. But alternatives to these are either poor or expensive to create, especially just to test. I could replace Flux Networks with Dimensional Transceiver, but each of them require an Enderman's soul...
