    How many of you play with keepInventory on?

    I always turn on keep inventory and turn off mob griefing when playing modded. The standard rules are fine for me for vanilla, when it won't ever take much effort to replace an inventory, or much time to rebuild after an explosion. In a modpack, some of the systems I've built or items I've...

    DLC for Minecraft?

    About three thousand years ago, a wise man said "everything is worth what it's purchaser will pay for it". It's still true today. I've bought the odd skin pack for various games for the price of a coffee, and I choose to 'pay' for some Minecraft mods by donating to the creators. If you don't...

    How can I farm flowers automatically ?

    An autonomous activator above the centre block with a sickle or scythe in it works in most modpacks. EDIT - changed 'under' to 'over'. Under is where I usually put my bone meal AA.

    [1.6.4] Agrarian Skies - Bragging Rights Question

    I started this quest last night and I have the same issue. Five of the ones you need are primal (no Perdito), one of the others is Meto and the other remains a mystery to me, but it's definitely not Humanus or Cogthingy (the brain). I am stumped as to the last one as many of the colours are...

    Agrarian Skys help, venting, and discussion thread

    To make a local server, open your launcher and select AgSkies, but instead of hitting Launch, select Download Server. This gives you a zip file. Unzip it somewhere to make your server folder. In that is a file named serverstart.bat. Run that once to initialize the server, then close the...

    Clay in bulk

    An alternative solution for a Thaumcraft user could be to build the structure out of something else for now, and then when you happen to have gathered a load of clay, to Equal Trade the blocks.

    You can travel farther afield and scan a bunch of previously-unscanned nodes to get a big supply of the basic aspects, then combine them in the research table to get the compund aspects. Let's say you needed Mortuus (death). You could grab a bunch of water, earth and chaos from nodes, then...

    That would explain what I saw, and is a change I very much welcome. Thanks for that info. :D

    Automating Dye trees

    Just had a quick poke around in a test world. It seems as though the harvester is happy to cut down the tree and take the logs, but it doesn't recognize the dyes or saplings as acceptable, so it leaves them on the floor until they despawn. You can leave your harvester setup in place, you just...

    Automating Dye trees

    Just to check, are these trees from Project Red (Stained Trees), or are they from Reika's Dye Trees mod? Niels is definitely right if they're the PR trees, but I think the trees from Dye Trees may behave differently.

    They're definitely available, although I can't confirm if they can be found in the chests in those dungeons - I think I found mine in chests on those obsidian altars Thaumcraft adds. An alternative way to get ender pearls, assuming you have at least one, is by combining them with mimichite from...

    What are you currently playing?

    Monster 1.03 with Carpenter's Blocks installed and BOP enabled. I'm liking the new additions to TE and Thaumcraft, and I love the addition of Mimicry.

    Slow down wooden transport pipe output?

    Just a quick note about hoppers (that caught me out when I started using them) - to connect it to the machine or chest you want them to pump into, put it on the relevant side of the machine while sneaking, otherwise they won't connect. With regards to Extra Utilities, it is an excellent way to...

    Ender pearls in Monster Pack

    I haven't seen the episode in question, but angel blocks from Extra Utilities can be placed without needing to touch another block, so you can put one down, then stick another block next to that, then build from there.

    Cursed earth is complex to make, but full instructions can be found on this page under 'New Blocks - Cursed Earth' in the top post: http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1776056-164forge-extra-utilities-v102/ I prefer to make the earth a long way from base, then gather some up with a silk touch...

    Ender pearls in Monster Pack

    Should you find one ender pearl, Mimicry will let you make many. One mimichite plus a pearl will give you 16 ender pearl dust, and 9 of those dusts will make one pearl.
