Guess who's financing the new server!

Yo, for real, dude is trying to hook me up with an amazon server! Like, he gets free usage through his work or something. And no, I didn't actually ask him for it, lol. I don't know how feasible it will be, but this could be pretty awesome.

Edit: quoted the wrong post

Actually, one could argue - with SpaceToad taking over BuildCraft back from CovertJaguar and later events - that it was Buildcraft which broke away from Railcraft, as technically the decision to ditch MJ for 1.7.10 was made on our side and Railcraft was forced to adapt to it as the more or less final MJ-exclusive mod (excluding BC-specific addons).

Fair enough, though I was unaware of the background politics of the situation, and only sitting here as a mod user with no idea what's going on but seeing BC in 1.12, and waiting patiently for Railcraft. Impatiently actually, but there's nothing I can do. I can't even offer any useful help.

Is there a way to change/alter a Tinker's tool appearance? Just the cosmetics of the tool.

I vaguely remember some method, but I can't recall it, and cannot locate it through searches. Just getting so tired of purple Manyullyn swords.

Thank you,

Should be, using a texture pack. How I don't know, but it used to work anyway.

Does anyone recall what the altar power requirement is for the Drop of Luck in Infinity Evolved? I've seen some sources say 5000, and some say 7000 - my altar power is juuuuust above 5000, and I'd rather not waste my Refined Evil.

7000 without any circles around the cauldron

7000 without any circles around the cauldron

Thanks - much easier to move the thing before tossing stuff into it. (I have a place that the circles will fit - right next to the random farm I made to boost the altar to the level it is now!)

What the best way to automate entangled singularities (the explosion part) in Age of Engineering?

I'm thinking a 3x3 obsidian chamber with one block space inside, a pressure plate inside and a precision dropper for the singularities/ tiny tnt. Then a ranged collector. Am I missing a simple solution?

Tiny TNT has to be placed to ignite, so you'd need a two block space, but I believe obsidian will transmit a redstone signal to ignite it from outside. Use an AA Phantom Placer to place the Tiny TNT.

Just figured out that a steam boiler venting counts as an explosion

Oh, that's cheeky as anything. I love it.

I loaded up the new FTB Revelation modpack, however in every world I've created, my Journeymap mini-map (the small circular map at the upper right of the screen) does not work. It shows my own icon, it shows mob icons, but it only shows black squares instead of the actual terrain. I've looked at all the Journeymap options for the mini-map, and I've experimented for quite a bit of time with it, but cannot get it to work. Anybody else experiencing this issue? Any solutions for it? If I press the J key, I get the full world map with the terrain exposed where I've travelled... so I know the mod itself is working fine, it's just the mini-map that has a problem.

 

[Drbretto]

I have experienced that issue, and I don't have the solution. I reload the game and it randomly works.

There's a new "Embossment" method if you're playing v1.10 or above... which does allow one part on the tool to be changed. This video also shows how you can swap out parts for appearance (at the 2:45) mark, so check that out to see if it works for your sword.

Little late on the reply, hopefully this is still helpful. I’m hitting that a lot in 1.10 and discovered that hitting the key that’s bound to switching the map mode fixes it. So whatever key switches the minimap between caves, above ground, night, etc, forces a refresh and it works again until you switch dimensions or shut it down.

Is anyone else having issues with crashes in the DW20 1.12 pack? I think Chisel may be a bit goofy.

^edit:

Turns out it wasn't Chisel (gad I can't read crash logs for crap)

4x Tree Fluid Extractors pumping into a tank pumping into a Latex Processing Unit seemed to be causing way too many lighting updates...

 

[KingTriaxx]

Try using Opaque conduits, which might help.

Thanks, I will try the keypress method. I already tried pressing the buttons to switch between caves, above ground, night, and it did nothing... but it's certainly possible your solution only works with the keyboard. You also mentioned 1.10, except my experience is with Revelation which is a 1.12 pack. Also, I'm playing Direwolf20's modpack (also v1.12) which has NO problems with Journeymap... so this seems to be a pack-specific issue given your report of experiencing it in v1.10 modpacks.

 

[KingTriaxx]

I've got it fine in my Custom Pack, but playing Modular Mayhem for the first couple times, the map was broken. (Both 1.12 packs.)

Which mod adds the chicken rain which appears at christmas? It's killing the performance in my 1.7.10 pack and I need to disable it.
