EE and FTB new map

[Kaminho]

As everybody knows the only reason why we still dont have new map FTB with new mods its Equivalent Exchange witch is not finished yet, and i think it wont be for a very long time. So imo would be better if Pahimar just give this project to peoples who can finish it. what you think about that? I love EE i love FTB map, i wait for new version like 3 years so far and EE stuck at the same place.

to haters:
I know he dont have to do anuthing, he has no profit out of this, im not complaining, not pushing anyone to work faster etc.

Bro, he IS working on it. Last commit was two hours ago.
https://github.com/pahimar/Equivalent-Exchange-3
He just recently got done with a whole ton of background code in EE3, and he now has a baby to take care of. Patience my young padawan.

I'm sorry but EE3 is Pahimar's mod that means he can take all the time he wants to make it, and from what I've seen with his work I would love to use it when it is done, but there is no rush.

P.S. His mod is Open Source, so people are free to contribute to the mod on github, or even fork it. As long as you don't distribute it and say it's yours.

There was this little thing called Agrarian Skies a while ago

- which features similar gameplay mechanics to the original map.​

Every time I see an EE variant, it's always EE2. I'd rather wait for Pahimar to finish and have something that's far better balanced. Hell, done or not, EE3 already has a spot in the modpack i'm making.

It'll be done right after XYcraft gets finished.

@Reika that reminds me of one of your "what not to do" post :3

This looks familiar...

The thing is, while EE2 was fairly critical to FTB-style maps in its day, a large variety of newer mods like Ex Nihilo or HQM have long-since given us much broader options for goal-oriented skyblock maps. Blaming Pahimar for holding back FTB is like a blaming a particular condiment for a restaurant not serving new kinds of sandwiches.

That being said, I do kinda wish FTB would make more of those! Challenge maps, not sandwiches. We've seen several third-party HQM packs now, but nothing quite beats turning items in to a huge monument and not knowing what the reward will be.

FTB sandwiches confirmed.

Do you recon HQM could provide the same feel as the old FTB though? If there's no extravagant mechanical construct to feed then it can't really be a FTB map.

I think you could make it so so you can't craft or obtain a HQM book and have everything handed in via the QDS, but then how do you handle the rewards. I think you need the book for that so making the book inaccessible would be stupid.
Maybe The HQM team could make a reward delivery block to compliment the QDS.

And this is why I wish I could punch people through the internet.

a FTB map doesn't equals Equivalent Exchange. Agrarian Skies is a good example for that, though Agrarian Skies isn't an official FTB map/pack

 

[Kaminho]

i dont like idea that Agrarians skies is some sort of "new FTB map"
FTB map = 100% fun
Agrarian skies = first 4-5 hours grind and then 20%-50%-100% fun

btw vores are clear, most of u want wait until Pahimar do what he start.
today is 11/10.2014, i visit this topic after 3 years and we we will see whats happen

Really? AgSkies feels like almost no grind before you get to do a lot of things if you ask me, and it is a lot of fun... On the other hand I never liked the FTB maps to start with.

*cough* Pahimar is rewriting EE so it isn't OP as hell... I am pretty sure that is better than being able to get EMC "generators"
Also, Pahimar has got IRL stuff to deal with, I have no idea how little time he has to be honest.
He is a father now, and that takes a lot of time, he has a job, he gets pestered by DW20 to do a CL series , and he is doing a YouTube series to help out others who want to code.

Besides, that's not the point. Every year the FTB team do a challenge map for PAX and you can always play them if you want to
