Success! Built a small home base in the Nether. The Fortress is close by, I can see it from the base. Not as close as @JaRyCu 's Portal, but hey... I'll take it! Thinking I may need a power source in there for the Jetpack... Now to find me a Nether Quartz Chicken...
With the update, looks like the growth Crystals got a little graphical upgrade. The bottom glows while the center spins...
Acquired the Nether Quartz Chicken. was a close call for sure. With that, I was able to get a couple other Chickens. My present Chicken Resource Center...
Expanding a bit on my Magical Agriculture Farm. Getting Diamonds, Emeralds and Glow Stone Dust from them. As for the chickens, I am in the process of breeding to get the Ardite, Cobalt and Manyullyn chickens. Not sure why I want these, but I believe I can use the resources. Below... Ghast Tear, Glowstone and Magma-Cream Chickens.
I may have been dealt a final setback... My Laptop crashed last night while I was in game. I have been trying to repair since about 10pm last night. So far, SF3 will not load no matter what I do. Still troubleshooting today.
Whew... Again, I have managed to save the game somehow. My Direwolf20 game seemed to load, SF3 was not, no matter what file I had there. Kind of told me that something was screwed up in the SF3 File. This time around, I took the saved Game and stashed the folder on my desktop. Then I deleted SF3 from my Curse Account and reloaded it. I created a new game, then slid my game folder into the files. Luckily enough, the game loaded...
Got most of the chickens I think I need. Including my Ardite, Cobalt and Manyullyn Chickens. I even had to redesign my resource Storage area. ...
And just for fun, I took a pic of my Sky Place... from the Sky.
And I guess this is how the Minecraft mind works...
- Oh, those Lanterns would look nice along my main walkway.
- Lanterns on Street Posts would be even better.
- What is "Immersive Engineering"?
- I need Treated Wood, hmmm... How do I make that?
- Creosote? Crap I need to build a Coke Oven...
- Where do I build that, hmmm...
- Guess I need to add additional platforms to place a Coke Oven.
- Building these platforms is monotonous...
- Well hello Builders Wand! Why haven't I used you before?
Updated the Mob Farm using the Mob Masher, Vacuum Hopper and a Tank to capture experience. Upgraded the Mob Masher with sharpness and beheading. I need an Ender Head for my wireless Transmitter I want to make.
Building a bit with IE. Not sure what all the boxes are for in the interfaces. Still tinkering. Used the EnderIO conduits for a cleaner look. These things really suck down the power! I went through 4000000rf and didn't process a full stack of Seeds. Holy Power Suck Batman! Next is to figure out a good Farming System to feed this beast...
Spruced up my Botania Area a little. You can see that the "Painted Glowstone" Mossey Stone shading doesn't quite render right. Gotta figure out how to fix this... Guess I could go full painted Glowstone all the way around.
You may want to fore-go the painted glowstone and use Chisel&Bits. One flat layer of glowstone (256 bits) can be hidden inside one of the mossy bricks and will give full light and does not give artifacing as you see there with painted glowstone.
