Hey here, i have an issue why the question progression : In section 8 "Erratic Errands" when i put 46 Iron bar in the QDS or if y check "Manual submit" it does nothing the Iron bar dont work. Is it normal ? The iron bar needed are something special to get somehow ?
I am having this issue as well, and the Tin Oreberry Bush in the same section.
I found the simplest way to deal with all these issues is just to turn on the HQM Edit mode, and you can fix them manually. To do this, open up the config in /FeedTheBeast/AbandonedHouse2/minecraft/config/hqm/hqmconfig.cfg in your FTB install folder, and change "B:UseEditor=false" to "B:UseEditor=true" near the bottom. Then restart MineCraft.
Now when you open the questbook you get the editor on the side. For example, to fix the iron bars and Tin Oreberry bush issues:
- Put the item you want to fix in your inventory
- Open the proper quest in the questbook
- Click the "Change Item" option (5th from the top)
- Click on the specific item on the right you want to fix
- Click on the item in your inventory that it is supposed to properly match. This will actually permanently update the quest in your install to the selected item. You can also change the mode at the top for items that have extra data, e.g., damage value.
- Precise detection - match specified item exactly, including metadata/NBT
- NBT independent detection - ignore NBT data, useful for items with customizable features like power armor.
- Fuzzy detection - ignore metadata/damage value (BE CAREFUL with this option. Lots of items use metadata for completely different items. For example Iron Oreberry Bush is 1485:8 and Tin Oreberry Bush is 1485:11. If you use Fuzzy Detection on the Oreberry Bush quest, you could actually submit any kind of Oreberry bush instead of just Tin!)
- Ore dictionary detection - use ore dictionary, e.g., match any kind of copper.
- Click Ok.
- Note, do NOT click "Manual Submit" at this point. Any progress made while the QuestBook is in edit mode is not saved. You must first switch back out of edit mode before attempting to use the QuestBook normally. You have been warned!
- Finally, don't forget to SAVE changes! If you go back to the main quest list (showing the 8 quest lines), and make sure no quest line is activated (if it is, click on it again to deactivate), you should see a "Save All" button available at the bottom right. Click this button or you will LOSE your changes made above once you close MineCraft.
I was able to get both quests working this way. You may also want to make a backup of the /hqm/ folder in case you accidentally mess up a quest, and I believe you can just copy the folder back in to reset it -- but someone should probably confirm this for sure.
**WARNING**: Once you've finished making changes, you MUST change the option above back to "B:UseEditor=false" and restart MineCraft to return the QuestBook back to normal survival mode before using the QuestBook normally. Otherwise it will NOT remember anything you've submitted on any quest line after you close MineCraft while in Editor mode. I am not responsible for lost progress by ignoring this warning.

Quest I've found to require manual tweaking (as of 7/16/15):
- Beginner's Trials (#1) -> Buzz Lightyear (power armor quest) -> For Power helmet, chestplate, leggings, and boots, change the top from "Precise detection" to "NBT independent detection".
- Erratic Errands (#8) -> Randomness (Grass block first quest) -> For Iron Bars, and Tin Oreberry Bush, put item in inventory and match them manually using instructions above.
