I have a question regarding sounds. I do love my railgun on the power tool, but the sound effect it makes (the same as throwing an egg) makes sniping mobs a lot less cool. A lot. So I would like to know if it is possible to change it myself, and if so, how difficult is it? Are we talking modifying the jar here? Because I have zero experience with java, and as far as I know MPS uses no custom sounds at all. I know that with the resource packs of 1.6 it will be very easy (I presume), but not wanting to wait, I feel like tinkering a bit, unless it's way over my head.
Edit: I looked in the jar and found a sound folder, with one file called MMMPSboop.wav. I tried replacing it with another wav but then it just goes silent in the game. So it seems that it is the correct file, but either it is too long (maybe coded to only accept a certain length) or something else is wrong with my file. Any ideas?

Did you use the exact same name for the file?
Other than that it could be encoded differently than what mc wants.
/edit -- i just did a little reading and it seems ".ogg" files are the sounds you're looking for, and they're not in the jar file according to this:

Yeah I even copypasted the name and checked it to be sure. See, that was what surprised me, because the other eight sounds are .ogg while that boop was in .wav and as far as I know MC only uses .ogg. Other mods have sounds placed in MC's resource folder, but not MMMPS it seems. I guess I could try to place it there as .ogg and see what happens. Otherwise, I guess the mod uses as specific setting on the .wav, don't really know how that works though. Thanks for the input, gonna tinker som more!
Grinders don't seem to like mobs with Hats, so my soul shard grinder combo gets backed up and devours everyone's FPS in retaliation. Is there a way to fix this predicament other than uninstalling the hat mod?
Run it only when you're logged in?
OK, seriously, switch to turtles?
(for the record, my chicken grinder eats hat-wearing poultry just as well as those without headwear)
I would have to go back and review Direwolf's videos. But I believe once you kill the Ur-Ghast part of the treasure is the ability to start crafting those doors.

Turtles don't create Mob Essence, and the overflow of XP drops from Turtle Kills is worst than item overflow. I guess I'll take another look at the grinders to figure out what the deal is.
Those are Reappearing Blocks from Twilight Forest. They're found in Dark Towers, which are found in Dark Forests. You can either harvest the doors already in a tower, or craft your own from Encased Towerwood and Carminite.
Wrong. You don't need to even look at the Ur-Ghast to craft them. You can craft Carminite from Borer Essence and Ghast Tears. Borer Essence drops from Tower Borers which are like Silverfish that can be found in Towerwood blocks with the weird holes in them.
how to stop a computer besides logging out?
one more thing. The fruit Picker from MFR will it collect walnuts from walnut trees. If not
is there a way beside a multi farm. They are 2x2 trees so a max size farm is not that effective.
The blackberry and blue berries are they a way to automate them. I tried a fruit picker and nothing happened.

Open up the computer's screen and hold CTRL+T to terminate whatever program is currently running (great way to get out of an infinite loop). To completely restart the computer, hold CTRL+R.
Not sure about the fruit picker. I haven't had a chance to play with it yet. And I don't think I've ever tried to automate berry harvesting before. I'll have to take a look. Maybe golems would be able to harvest from the berry bushes...
I was thinking about this yesterday too and testet it this morning. It seems not working tested with walnut and cherry trees. So multifarm ar the only way i know.

The MFR Harvester picks the berrys of the bush.
Anyone for these two?
Bonus question:
How exactly does the lapis modifier work? It says that when adding lapis you get a small chance to randomly gain looting and/or fortune. Now, I have a hammer, which can be used for both mining and as a weapon. I put 45 out of 450 possible lapis on it. The hammer instantly gained Fortune I on the first use of mining, and instantly gained Looting I on the first use as a weapon. But since then, it has remained at that level despite heavy usage.
Am I just lucky that I got the upgrades instantly, or is a certain number of lapis guaranteed to instantly grant one rank? And, will the rank keep increasing if I leave it as is, or is there a minimum amount of lapis necessary for ranks II and III to be able to trigger?
As far as I can tell from the source code, Aluminum can spawn in any biome. It's more plentiful in Extreme Hills, however.
You may find this spreadsheet useful for info on bow and arrow materials. Link originally from this thread.
You just need to add 1 more lapis - but it will consume an upgrade - you see, it's currently stuck in Fortune and Looting I because it stops at a tier and, once you reach a new tier, it will need external input.
Extreme Hills? Egads, I got one of them thar hills in me backyard. Must try this later.
Thanks, that thread was very educational. I have a rough idea now what I want to experiment with.
So lapis is different from Redstone then? Redstone goes up to 50 with one modifier, but lapis goes to 450 only with three? How curious.
