I'm currently playing the Monster FTB pack and have recently settled down in a mega taiga Biome; Any ideas for what type of base should build? I was leaning towards maybe some sort of wizard tower.

You're using Monster? That's kind of one and a half year old...

Mega taigas are perfect for modern houses. Don't ask why, but they look amazing with Podzol as the grass.
A magic-centered base might work, yet I don't know how good it'll look.
Getting creative here: I once built a crashed UFO in a taiga biome. I used it as an entrance to my underground base where everything of mine was kept.

Well i may not be actually using Monster FTB, but i'm using ATLauncher's Mainline and i wasn't sure if it was safe to post it here :3
So if that makes any difference any block suggestions?

Don't worry, they aren't in a war or anything. If you look at /r/feedthebeast, it's general mod talk there and not only FTB.
For modern houses, I don't have much suggestions except the chiseled wood, ice and any sort of white block.
For the UFO, I used Chisel stained glass, Tyrian blocks (how original right) and laboratory blocks. I probably used more blocks, I just can't remember them.

Oh thanks for all the help;
And two other things...
1. I like your avatar it looks like the philosophers stone from Full Metal Alchemist :3
2. My current server has normal generation settings, if i was to change this mid save would it change the generation if i generated new chunks on the same save if i was to change it to biomes'o'plenty?

^ I can't seem to find the answer to this anywhere...

1. Thanks, I drew it myself :D I'm starting to learn how to texture.
2. There's an option in the BoP configs which generates BoP biomes in the default world type. Try enabling that, and new chunks should have BoP biomes in them.

Speaking of Chisel, any tips on making a Factory biulding with it? What fits well other than a factory block?

lietuvis; what kind of theme are you going for?
If it's a factory try using the typical project red expansion bricks, howvere if you want a darker theme, try using smokey quartz with regular if you want to have the booziest of bases, and want some colour? Use chisels ability to cross regular stone bricks with extra utils coloured bricks. I can give some examples if you need <3

vanilla bricks work for factories too
There should be a config option in biomesoplenty/main.cfg.

For now i have changed the server.props file to generate biomesop?
Hopefully if i generate new chunks it should spawn the cool biomes? <3

Nope, no luck, no bop biomes are genearating regardless of the server.prop generation feauture being changed...
Oh and i'm not sure if you can see the link i posted but the main.cfg offered nothing like overworld generation settings.

This is all i got:
# Configuration file



"debug settings" {

# Turn debug mode on/off

B:"Debug Mode"=false

}





versions {

S:"Trail Version"=dev_trail:1;help_trail:1;donator_trail:1;

}

I thought that would happen. If the option in the server.properties file is changed, the world needs to be deleted completely. You still should be able to edit the level.dat file of the world in order to change the world type.
