1.5.2 Beta pack question

[Dylan Meurs]

Hey just wondering does anyone else have trouble with the mob spawn overlay on this pack?

 

[Chaos_Therum]

You need to be more specific.

 

[Dylan Meurs]

srry I'm a bit new to the whole forum thing lol, but what I mean by issues it when I press f7 I dont get any grids or anything showing mob spawn areas, I dont know if I am just missing something or maybe a config needs changed?

 

[Chaos_Therum]

Oh the lighting indicator um I am using a modified version of the modpack and I am having no issues. You might want to try updating forge manually. Here is the most recent version of forge.

[Dylan Meurs]

OK, thanks. I will try that once I have everything backed up lol

 

[Chaos_Therum]

Let me know if it works if it doesn't I'l see if I can figure out what the problem is.

 

[Dylan Meurs]

ok I updated to that version of forge and it still doesnt display the overlay, i've changed the keybinding and everything =/

 

[Chaos_Therum]

hrm so the key binding is showing up in the menu so it's installed but still not working. I can't think of anything to do. Are you using a custom pack or a default FTB. If default I would suggest trying to force update it then try it again. and if that doesn't work goto the forge support forums and ask there

 

[cynric]

It seems to only work when you look in a specific direction, straigh north I think it was. As soon as you tilt or turn your view, it zips around and out of view most of the time. Probably some incompatability on where to draw stuff.

I think turning your graphics to fast helps.

 

[Dylan Meurs]

putting it on fast graphics actually solved the problem, any idea what might cause that though?

 

[39cluesEKAT]

It has something to do with how NEI renders the overlay and fancy messes that up.

 

[Chaos_Therum]

If you want fancy you could trying optifine

 

[Dylan Meurs]

does anyone know if there is a fix other than optifine? personally never had any luck with it, but it wont kill me to switch to fast when I want to use that feature lol

If you want fancy you could trying optifine

Nooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Fancy has never been this scary!

 

[Chaos_Therum]

I have been using optifine and it is now compatible with the new version of forge. Also I don't know what you mean by fancy

 

[buggirlexpres]

Well, sure, it's comparable with forge....

 

[Dylan Meurs]

I can believe it will be compatible but I mean I've never gotten any real fps increase from using it, so I don't see the point of using it if it won't really help

 

[Chaos_Therum]

Yeah but it might help I'm thinking that maybe since it fundamentally changes the way that minecraft renders it might help

 

[buggirlexpres]

Yeah but it might help I'm thinking that maybe since it fundamentally changes the way that minecraft renders it might help

But here's the problem: is the lighting designed for the fundamentally changed rendering? If he uses Optifine, I don't think anyone will be able to help him if things take a turn for the worse.
