Day 11/12

New buildings include Zirrans house, Task Forces diamond disposal...I mean...factorization factory, and Keabs Turtle Emporium (adapted from the earlier turtle built house)

[Task Force]

I'm wondering, why are we using a outdated version of the mods? Is this the most updated version of the pack, or are we just using a older version for a particular reason?

[Oberon]

I believe we're using 6.3, and the latest version of the mudpack is 6.4, I think Arc preferred to go for the more-likely-to-be-stable version.

[Task Force]

Well if we can find out if 6.4 is stable I'd like to update since the newer version of Thermal expansion (if it has the most up to date version) has no energy loss in conduits, and since Endermen who drop ender pearls are a rarity! I'm going to have to move power to my bee building by conduits.

[Nagy]

Hey, Dowly. I have a pressing need for Ender Pearls, what are the coordinates for the end portal?

Here's the video of last night's action.

[Oberon]

Loving the sound effects! :yeah:

[Nagy]

Looks like I missed out on all the fun. Do we have enough ender pearls to satisfy Task's requirements now?

[Oberon]

Not sure, the Endermen were spazzing out a bit while we were in there, constantly teleporting, not actually staying in one spot for longer than a split second. So, not sure if the End actually works properly or whether something has broken somewhere. Zirran has some Pearls for your turtle though IIRC.

[Betonov]

almost connected :/\\!!

1: Select New World Mod Pack (v6.4.1) Minecraft Version 1.5.2
By kylemcqueen75 in the FTB launcherThe only version on the launcher list is only v6.4.2.
The rest was followed to the letter :hmmm:

OK, it seems that the changes in the IC file were reverted when I had to deactivate the mods for a third time....
In the server, got in during the night, still sunny here. I might pop in on wednesday to plant a flag

[Nagy]

Did you find the city in the end Betenov?

Hey Arc, if Zirran and TF ever leave the server, is there any chance of a carto?

[Arclight]

As soon as I can get my hands on a workable program. Which is more challenging than it sounds. :-?

[Betonov]

Did you find the city in the end Betenov?


Yep, already started a mining colony in the nearby mountains.
But the lodge and workshop will be close to the town. On the coast


The plot of land next to the ocean, rough coordinates 400, 250, next to the town.
Anyone claimed it or I can build my house there ???

[Pisces]

As soon as I can get my hands on a workable program. Which is more challenging than it sounds. :-?How about Unmined? Maybe making a copy of the world into a single player world if it doesn't like MP worlds

http://unmined.intro.hu/

Unknown modblocks will be grey. But it's easy to use.

[Nagy]

Feel free to take anything you need from the AE network in the warehouse.

Likewise feel free to throw anything you like into it.

[Betonov]

Considering there's an ender pearl shortage, obtaining lava from the nether to power my (planned) power plant might be a problem :-?

I hope there's a big lava pool under my planned industrial area

[Nagy]

End is fixed! Let the genocide commence.

[Betonov]

Call me a war profiteer then :arrgh!:

[Nagy]

Make yourself a pair of gold boots and you can be Hannibal Chau

Now I REALLY got to see this movie :D

Alright you lot, listen up, I.K. Brunel here, world's first chain smoker, engineer and occasional Kenneth Branagh impersonator. I'm here to tell you lot how to run a railway since Gods Wonderful Railway is the finest on Earth and don't you listen to those pompous lot from the North Eastern!

http://imageshack.us/a/img62/9885/isib.jpg
Here is the depot at the main city, Electricfox has done a fairly good job at it, he's got two locomotives, called them Percy and Edward, the green one is Percy, and the blue one is Edward...although why he had to paint it in SDJR blue I do not know. Still, no-one's perfect, at least he managed the GWR green right.

http://imageshack.us/a/img818/8468/c618.jpg
This is 'Percy'

http://imageshack.us/a/img694/78/iiy6.jpg
And this is 'Lord of the Isles', one of Gooch's children, broad gauge, of course, as it should be, none of this four foot eight and a half inches nonsense. You can see the comparisons between the two, although you have to sit in a seperate wagon for the footplate on 'Percy', poor design and workmanship, very sloppy. Now, in the tender or bunker is water and coal, in 'Percy's case coal, charcoal, coal coke and about seven or eight buckets of water.

A steam locomotive needs water and fuel to exist, deprive it of one or the other and bad things happen. In this 'Minecraft' if you run out of water, and then put cold water in a hot boiler, the bad thing that happens is a large crater and no locomotive. In real life, the bad thing that would happen if you ran out of water is the total embarrasment of having 'dropped a plug', or if you were driving a locomotive created before the invention of fusible plugs (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fusible_plug), then a large explosion and death. So, don't do it.

To help you avoid running out of water, Electricfox has provided 'water columns' along the railway for you to use alongside the water buckets inside your tender.

http://imageshack.us/a/img13/705/e80r.jpg
This is the water column at the central station where the End portal is located. To refill your water tank, stop your locomotive underneath it.

http://imageshack.us/a/img543/1635/vidc.jpg
Like so, and then water will drop into the tank and your locomotive will be safe from exploding until next time.

Be grateful that whoever designed these locomotives saw it fit to handwave away steam pressure, or fitted some sort of safety valve to it, because boiler explosions are bad things, alright?

http://www.historycentral.com/railroad/News/Boiler.jpg

Curiously this boiler explosion was not what inspired the idea for double decker trains.

Anyway, so remember chaps, keep the boiler filled up with water, keep the firebox filled up with fuel and you'll be happy. Shut down the locomotive in between use and it'll stop using fuel and water and you'll be good.

Now go along, and spread the word of Broad Gauge!

The GEO-core powerplant is operational.

Taping the power potential of hell itself, the first Nether pump station (one in four planned) began it's work today filling the first of the two lava storage tanks of the plant, which will feed 5 geothermal generators all conected to an MFSU unit.


Once in full operation, it will be able to power Magrathean operations

[Arclight]

I'm doing some diagnostics, like checking the drive for errors. Takes a while, I'll stick it back up running the 6.4 dev build once that's done.

*Up and running 6.4.

[Nagy]

Any major changes in 6.4?

[Arclight]

Haven't the foggiest to be honest. It's still a dev build, not stable, but in light of the errors it kept throwing it can't be worse than 6.3.

[Oberon]

To be honest there was some celebration when I heard all hell break loose. The temperature dropped by a whole 0.5C... I'll take it.

2013-07-27 12:30:34 [INFO] Connection reset

[Nagy]

For anybody updating to 6.4

Don't forget to disable these mods:

Metallurgy 3.0.0.0.10.7
Meteors Mod V2.10.2
millenaire5.0.0
MineFactoryReloaded-2.6.2-924
traincraft-4.0.0_035

And don't forget to go into the IC2 config and turn on Tin and Copper generation.

[Oberon]

Hmmm, this is a problem.

We have basically two choices:

1) Continue with the server as it is, and deal with the frequent crashes and loss of work (not ideal)

or

2) Find a new more stable modpack and try again

Annoying because we're quite settled into this world, the city is nice, and we've all got projects on the go, but it's not much fun spending two hours working on something and then losing it all the time.

Thoughts?

[Betonov]

I'm voting for a restart.

Plus, I miss the project table


Gago and I had FTB ultimate with all mods on and was working perfectly.
Can't remember the version though

[Nagy]

Well, looks like we're still seeing the same issues with 6.4

How about the new Direwolf 1.5 modpack?

To get it in FTB, click on Private packs and enter the code Direwolf20_1_5

This is what's in it:

Applied Energistics
Bibliocraft
Buildcraft
Charge Pads
Compact Solars
Computer Craft
Ender Storage
Equivalent Exchange 3
Extra Bees
Extra Trees
Factorization
Forestry
GravityGun
Hats
HatStand
IChunUtil
IndustrialCraft2
InventoryTweaks
IronChest
MagicBees
MineFactoryReloaded
MiscPeripherals
ModularForceFieldSystem
MFFS Calcavia
ModularPowerSuits
Mystcraft
Natura
NEIAddons
NEIPlugins
ObsidiPlates
OmniTools
OpenCCSensors
PluginsForForestry
PortalGun
RailCraft
SoulShards
StevesCarts
ThaumCraft
ThaumicTinkerer
ThermalExpansion
TinkersConstruct
Translocators
TwilightForest
VoxelMap

Maybe with the usual omission of Mystcraft and Twilight Forest, to save on the number of worlds being generated. I could go either way on Thaumcraft these days. Don't know if EE3 is still as OP as EE2 was.

[Task Force]

As always, we can go either way with the server, if we start a new world It will not bother me.

[Arclight]

It fell over again. I'm not sure there's much to be gained continuing to run this. :-?

I'd suggest just running the packs as-is. Considering this pack seems to work for others, it might be the tinkering we did. :hmmm:

[Oberon]

I agree with Nick...

I mean Keab

Not sure if taking Twilight Forest and Mystcraft out would break anything, our last pack with those in that we turned off seemed to work alright.
Leave Thaum and EE3 on, it'll give TF something to break when he's got his super-mega-ultra-setup sorted. :03:

Yay!, I've been wanting to play with thaumcraft for a while now. Any idea when the new server will be up?

* I don't see the issue with mystcraft or Twilight forest, mystcraft would be useful just in case one of the mods adds a new ore, or something is bugged in the main world (EX our first try with the copper). Make a mystcraft world with the new config and there ya go its all there. Shouldn't cause any more issues than the nether.

[Arclight]

Yank Twilight Forest from DW20 pack and run that then? Or just the standard pack... something else entirely?

[Nagy]

I think that sounds like a good plan.

Though TBH, If we're leaving Mystcraft in we could leave the Twilight Forest. It would give TF and Dowly something to test their armour out on.

[Oberon]

Yank Twilight Forest from DW20 pack and run that then? Or just the standard pack... something else entirely?

Grab Direwolf 1.5 (To get it in FTB, click on Private packs and enter the code Direwolf20_1_5)
Yank Mystcraft and Twilight Forest from it
???
Time-out Error

Or alternately
Grab Direwolf 1.5 (To get it in FTB, click on Private packs and enter the code Direwolf20_1_5)
Leave Mystcraft and TF in it
???
Segmentation fault

[Nagy]

Errr. Have you got the updated FTB launcher?

[Oberon]

Errr. Have you got the updated FTB launcher?

Me? Oh, yes, yes, no I was making a joke. Works fine (so far) on my end. So shall we just leave everything in and get it going with 1.5?

[Nagy]

I think so. Seems pretty stable in SSP.

There is an additional Biomes mode, Biome's O' Plenty, but the pack has it disabled by default. So I think we just go with the default config.

[Arclight]

Right then, DW20 1.5 should be up.

[Nagy]

Then we shall commence scouting the location for City 21, or is it 22?

[Betonov]

Someone should lower the dificulty, a zombie took me out in only 2 blows :/\\!!

[Nagy]

Natura adds a bunch of tougher mods IIRC.

[Oberon]

City XX will be located at:

-252, +244

That is all. :salute:

[Betonov]

Roger.

I'll start relocating my colony into the nearby mountain and the industry zone will be built underneath it. Just like on the prevous server

[Nagy]

Instead of reading this first, I went on a scouting mission. Did a circuit of around 600-700 blocks away from the spawn outpost / City location.

My basic criteria were, flat land that wasn't snow or desert.

I did find a nice plains Biome next to some extreme hills, but I do think the lakeside location near the spawn is nicer, and this one is quite a distance from the spawn.

Anyway the coordinates were: X: -759 Z: -301

Personally I think I'll relocate back to the spawn lake.

[Oberon]

IMPORTANT

Today I created a Nether portal...or, well I tried to.
The flint and steel is a bit bugged at the moment and decides that it doesn't want to light on occasion. To get around this I hax'd a portal in, however on doing a spot of reading I've found a possible solution. It is thus:

To fix this go into railcraft config and find block.rchidden (default id 473) and change it to 0

So I recommend that Arclight and everyone joining the server do the same.

I have no idea if the more recent version of the Direwolf pack has fixed this.

If Arc could post on here when he's done the switcheroo, so I know when to do so.

[Arclight]

block.rchidden
Does not exist. Did find

I:block.hidden=473

which seems similar enough to assume it's the intended value.

Soo, fixed. Possibly.

[Dowly]

Just a heads up, the DW20 1.5 pack has gone public. It takes out one mod (OpenCC sensors),
so unless you guys are planning to stick to the beta pack, it might be a good idea
to update to the public pack before anyone starts using OpenCC.

Direwolf's quick look on what's new:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iNah68B1VOM

Change log:

Modpack pushed to public release.

Extra Utilities updated from 0.2.4c to 0.2.4f
Forge Multipart added (Multiblock API, allows for vanilla multiblocks)
Magic Bees updated from 2.0.2 to 2.1.0
Logistics Pipes added (This is the forked version by TheZorro and Davbueki)
OpenCCsensors removed (no longer being updated)
Open Peripherals 0.1.9 added
Tinkers Construct updated from 1.4.1.5 to 1.4.1.7
Wireless Redstone Chickenbones edition added.

[Oberon]

I concur, update would probably be a good idea.

[Betonov]

To quote Arthur Dent:

WHAT THE HELL ARE THOSE THINGS !!!!!!!!!


A pink creeper attacked me in the nether :o

[Betonov]

One of those damn things shut the nether portal down, so I'm stuck in the nether :/\\!!

Some notifiy me here when it's back on line, thank you :lost:

[Oberon]

Ah yes, I should have warned you about that...yes, the Nether has been 'upgraded' too. There are 'Nitro Creepers', some random sort of spider, and a pig that walks but isn't a zombie pigman...oh, and bats that attack you...whilst on fire.

There are also new trees in there, and some sort of 'sulphur cloud' which contrary to all expectations, doesn't kill you on contact.

I'll pop on and fire the gate up again.

EDIT: Huh, odd, it's created another gate, right next to the already active gate...random. Anyway, should be up now. Oh, just watch out, one of those angry zombies went through it, so he might be wandering around the other side looking a bit confused...and angry.

[Nagy]

*Edit*

I read the above as us having updated to the main pack. I guess not...

[Dowly]

*Edit*

I read the above as us having updated to the main pack. I guess not...

Heh, yeah same here. :O:

[Arclight]

Pushed the update through, pack version 1.1.1 according to launcher.

[Nagy]

All been working smoothly so far.

With the discovery of the Nether and the energy potential of the creature called as the Blaze, our engineers and R&D specialists have begun the planning phase of a ''blaze farm''

[Betonov]

the nether is brutal, died 7 times just to retrieve my belongings :/\\!!

Is there any way to tone it down a notch or ten ??

[Kapitän Schneider]

Don't go in without at least nano armour and a good sword. Even I die with nano armour.

[Betonov]

Nano wont be hard to make.

I'm thinking of making a stone tube to the spawner.
Delays delays

[Dowly]

I'll be just east of spawn, +29 +228-ish.

Oh and FTB balls'd it up:
http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/important-for-users-of-direwolf20_1_5-modpack-urgent-feedback-needed.28103/

[Oberon]

Yeah, I saw about the balls up, at the moment the vote is going the way of a rebuild that'll require a new world. So, unless something major breaks down in this one, I'd say that we'd best stay on this patch, I mean, I haven't seen anything broken yet.

[Dowly]

Dragon's dead, follow the light path to the portal.

[gago]

I'm getting this message:

http://puu.sh/3V3ZX.png

[Betonov]

When prompted to update... update :O:

You should have Direwolf20 1.5 (v1.1.2)

[Arclight]

Wait, 1.1.2? Server is on 1.1.1.

There was some upheaval about mismatching configs, basically they screwed up the upload. I'd really advice getting 1.1.1; we've had some issues with configs on clients being different from what's on the server.

[Betonov]

That's weird. I'm running 1.1.2 with no problems whatsoever :hmmm:

[gago]

I've updated it before and it still didn't work.

[Betonov]

clean reinstall ??

[gago]

I did, still doesn't work...

[Betonov]

Problem solved :D

[Dowly]

Shall we use the enderchest/tank colors from the first post?

[Nagy]

Might as well

[Betonov]

White it is :up:

[Betonov]

Read yesterday that pumping lava from the nether causes lag and is banned on some servers.
Probably more populated but still, if things get too bad let me know and I'll stop the pumps if I'm not alone on the server.
The pumps will be off when I'm not logged in.

[Oberon]

I'm upgrading my hobby steam engines to the industrial ones so there'll be less going at a time, that might help take some of the burden off too.

[Dowly]

Also, Logistics Pipes are not working. Can't pull the stuff out from the crafting window.

[Betonov]

The server ist kaputt.

Just down or completely kaputt :o

[Dowly]

Down, that's all I know.

[Betonov]

It's for the best. the day is nice and I'm having a headache

[Dowly]

Btw, Oberon, here's the MFR treefarm setup:
http://i.imgur.com/Gd4jY3Z.jpg

Harvester outputs saplings (I route logs and apples to a voidpipe), once they hit
the RR pipe, they are sorted equally to the BioReactor and to the Planter down the line.

The insertion pipe looks for the nearest inventory (Planter) and if there is space,
sends the item there. If there is no space in the Planter, the saplings will continue
and end up in the BioReactor.

[Arclight]

Some out of memory error. Restarted with double the RAM allocation.

[Dowly]

If you use golden pipes, might want to check your system, I was missing two golden pipes from both my treefarms. :hmmm:

[Betonov]

Gold has a fondness of dissapearing :hmmm:

Any jews on the forum, I got this inapropriate joke :)

[NeonSamurai]

Don't even think about it...

[Betonov]

just killed a king slime. Dropped a shovel :doh:

[Betonov]

Oberon, your portal gun still working ??

I'd like to build a cow pen and if you could zap some cows into it. The nearest are where we found the village in the beginning

[Nagy]

Has anybody found any Mystcraft pages yet?

[Nagy]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFF! Spent two days coding a turtle to quarry for me, hadn't backed up the code as it was still a test run. Somehow the turtle vanished. Completely gone!

[Nagy]

Continuing my streak of posts here.

Betenov, if you're worried about lag from lava pumping, investigate the Ender-Thermic pump.

[Nagy]

And one more. Why not.

Zirran and I made a random Mystcraft age to explore.

It's got long days, massive trees and a lot of mobs. The skies are black in the day and blue at night. There are tendrils of netherrack everywhere.

But you might like to explore it. Because it only has two biome types. The trees and Desert Oil Fields. So basically a tonne of free Oil.

The book is on a stand in my base. Which is now quite easy to get to.

Feel free to use the Mystcraft blocks in the far corner to make yourself some linking books to get home again. Or indeed to use the pages we found to make your own descriptive books. All I ask in return is that you let me copy any pages you find while on your travels.

In the end I hope to amass a good library so that I can make custom ages for people. I'm sure Betenov would like an age with lava oceans and no Ghasts.

[Betonov]

The GEO-core from the nether should keep me well suplied until my nuclear program is complete.

You should team up with gagoslav, he's into mystcraft

[Nagy]

Keab Turtle Mining Inc presents a Beginners Guide to Turtle Quarries


Build yourself a Mining Turtle
Build yourself 2 chests
Visit Keab Turtle Mining Inc's magnificent base
Place your turtle beside the Disk Drive
Right click on the turtle and type the following commands

cp disk/setupQuarry setupQuarry
cp disk/Quarry Quarry
mkdir quarryFiles

Take your turtle and chests to your quarry site
Place a chest on the ground
Fill this chest with coal or charcoal
Place the turtle on top of the chest (shift click)
Place a chest on top of the turtle (shift click)
Right click on the turtle and type: setupQuarry <width> <length>
Make sure you completed step 11
You are now ready to set the turtle running there are two options for this:

Attended Operation. The chunk that the turtle is in must be loaded at all times. If the chunk becomes unloaded the turtle will stop mid program and will require rescue. Run this command by typing Quarry
Auto-Resume mode. If the chunk the turtle is in becomes unloaded, the next time the chunk loads the turtle should pick up exactly where it left off. Caution this functionality has not been tested thoroughly. Keab Turtle Mining Inc is not responsible for any turtles lost due to shoddy coding. You need to follow these steps to activate this mode:

Type: edit startup
Type shell.run("Quarry")
Press control
Use the arrow keys to select Save and press Enter
Press control
Use the arrow keys to select exit and press enter
Hold Ctrl + R to reboot the turtle


Sit back and enjoy the environmental destruction*
???
Profit


Notes: The range of the turtle will depend on the area that is chunk loaded. A person standing by the chests should be loading at least 64 blocks in each direction. As such the maximum dimensions for the quarry are potentially 128 64 (the turtle is set to mine equal numbers either side of the starting chest)

As the turtle runs it will return to the chest to deposit it's load and refuel if necessary. Please ensure that the upper chest always has room for the turtle to deposit into and that the lower chest has a constant supply of fuel. Ender chests might make your life easier here.

If you need to stop the turtle before it has finished the quarrying run (especially useful if you've set it to auto-resume) wait until the turtle is unloading, right click on the interface and hold Ctrl + T to terminate the program.

If you do terminate the turtle and want it to resume where it left off, simply run the command again and it will resume the quarrying in the right place.

If you have moved the turtle and want to start again, run the setupQuarry command again to reset the Turtle's progress.

If you have to rescue a turtle you have two options. You can run the Quarry command again from it's current location and as with the auto-resume option it should continue mining from it's current position. If you choose to rescue it and return it to the starting chests, you'll need to re-run setupQuarry as the turtle will no longer know where it is.

I do plan to release a version of this that uses GPS once I've had chance to build a GPS array and test it. For now this uses relative coordinates to it's starting position. This is why you need to make sure you use setupQuarry if you've moved the turtle.

Zirran, the copy of code I gave to you contains some bugs. You should grab the latest version. You'll need to run rm Quarry and rm setupQuarry to delete the current versions before copying the new code across.

[Oberon]

So, guess who went off to a Mystcraft world without an overworld link book with them?

Anyone fancy rescuing me from the 'Boon' world?

And, also, perhaps explaining to me why they named a world after a pretty cool 1980s TV series?

[Betonov]

Playing right now.

Just tell me how to get there with the book

[Oberon]

Playing right now.

Just tell me how to get there with the book

I'm there. You'll need to get a link book to the overworld, and a stand to put the book on. Head to Keabs place and find the stand without a sign above it and go to that world. It should be a snowy biome with a frozen sea all around you, deploy the stand and put the book on it.

MAKE SURE THE BOOK IS LINKED TO THE OVERWORLD BEFORE YOU TRAVEL!

Or you'll get stuck there too...

[Betonov]

Which one is keabs place again ??

[Oberon]

Which one is keabs place again ??

The one up the big tree near the city. Sorry, was afk.

EDIT: And now the server's fallen over... :dead:

[Arclight]

Out of memory nonsense again. :hmmm:

[Betonov]

Unfortunately I blundered trough Zirrans house before realising Keabs house is next door to mine and I destroyed 2 units of ink while trying to figure out the mixing table :oops:

[Nagy]

I'm pretty sure I linked your place into the network Betenov. There's a Nether book by your bed...

Also, Fox. I did tell you to link the book before you went...

*edit*

I'll make sure there's a chest of unlinked books in my place next time I'm back there.

Also for folks making new worlds. It's a nice courtesy to take a spare book and set it up on a stand at the spawn point. That way anybody who does what Fox did has a guaranteed route back.

Also when you warp in I do recommend making a waypoint to the book.

[Kapitän Schneider]

Keab I came back to the overworld and spawned in your place.

Unfortunatly there was a creeper waiting for me, he made a nice hole which I filled in, I lit up your place and you've lost your computer.

I did save the disk, it's in a chest.

[Skybird]

All you Minecraft lovers, now the going gets tough!

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2OQrw_bJiaQ

[Nagy]

Looks like they've uploaded a fixed version of the DW pack that needs a new world.

To get the old version of the pack that we're using you need to add it back as a private pack with the code DW20

[Nagy]

*pokes server with a long stick*

Erm, guys. I think we killed it...

[Betonov]

What ?? Again ??

Oh well, ces't la vie.

[Oberon]

Stand back citizens, I have finally obtained a powersuit!

http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lvr5mcUSpq1r0b9oio1_500.png


Awwww...

[Nagy]

I've finally created an age that's nothing but Lava.

There's a little lightning problem, but that's a small price to pay.

That and 6fps for some reason...

[Betonov]

bloody hell, I type DW20 in private packs, the game starts but I cant reach the server. It says some mods are missing :hmmm:

[Nagy]

Which version did you set the DW20 private pack to?

[Betonov]

Didn't check, which one was I supposed to :hmmm:

[Nagy]

I'm using 1.1.1

[Nagy]

While I was building some stuff in my base a few minutes ago, I heard an explosion in the distance.

All of my machines are still intact, and a quick survey of Battered Sea looks as though everything is still there, but best check everything next time you log in.

[Dowly]

@Keab, 1.7 will have actual "mesa" biomes for your Black Mesa. :up:

Also, Ice plains with huuuge ice spike.

[Oberon]

While I was building some stuff in my base a few minutes ago, I heard an explosion in the distance.

It was the cobble generators pipe to the recycler, pipe got too much cobble in it and exploded. No real damage, I'll get around to fixing it up and building another couple of recyclers soon.:yep:

[Nagy]

I was exploring my mining world looking for mystcraft pages.

I'm now stuck there as my chunk loader is causing me to crash as soon as I log in.

[Oberon]

I've removed the loader. Try now.

[Betonov]

Back in business :D

now what :hmmm:

[Nagy]

Visit my house, and try the linking book marked "lava, lava everywhere"

[Betonov]

I just might relocate the pumping station :up:

Any mobs I should worry there ??

[Nagy]

So far the light from the Lava has kept the mobs away. Just watch out for the lightning.

[Betonov]

Can I connect the lava world with my plant with another linking book, or is it possible to access it only form your place :hmmm:

[Oberon]

Can I connect the lava world with my plant with another linking book, or is it possible to access it only form your place :hmmm:

I believe it can be done. I've moved the link point on my oil world before.

[Nagy]

Indeed you can. Make two unlinked linking books. Right click one in your base and one at your pumping station. Then just put them on stands in the right places. Over world book in the lava world, lava world book in the overworld.

[Betonov]

Roger that :salute:

[Betonov]

lost all my gear in a nether blunder :/\\!!
I really hate this nether, it's not fun at all

[Nagy]

Why do you think I made a lava world. The only reason to go into The Nether now is for tinkers construct ores.

[Oberon]

What were you after? The nether is pretty easy for me with my suit and railgun.

[Betonov]

8 blaze rods to connect my quarry to the separation plant.
Luckily I was smart enough to leave my tools at home so I only lost nanoarmour, weapons and all the blaze rods I harvested.

And now I need glowstone dust to rebuild my jetpack and nanosword...


Did you just said RAILGUN !!!!!! :o

Nevermind on the glowstone dust, just found a stock in my electronics worktable

8 blaze rods coming right up, and yes, I said railgun, portable hand-held variety, one shot kills Ghasts, two shot kills Endermen. :yeah:

[Betonov]

OK, powersuit Q&A

1) does every component need it's own battery or is one advanced in the chestplate enough

Ahh, thanks :yeah:
I'll make myself the damn powersuit first before moving the mine

[Oberon]

8 blaze rods and some random glowstone dust delivered to your afk character courtesy of the Tokiwadai Railgun delivery service. :salute: Biri-biri!

[Oberon]

OK, powersuit Q&A

1) does every component need it's own battery or is one advanced in the chestplate enough

I've put one in each component, but it depends on how long you want the charge to last for, it's cumulative so the more batteries in your suit the more charge you'll have, which is useful when you have things like shields and jetpacks draining it.

[Betonov]

Didn't even noticed you were here, I was cooking lunch.

Thanks again :up:

[Betonov]

Q&A

2) Google is useless. To change color it says make a hologram emiter, but there's no way to instal the color module on the suit :hmmm:

OK, actually dug up something, press ''L'', blast

[Nagy]

Also if you want Blaze Rods in a slightly safer environment just go to my mining world. It has Nether Fortresses. Just be careful it has a really short day/night cycle so you can get ganged up on by other mobs, but the plus side is there's no Ghasts or Lava.

[Betonov]

And working in teams might do the trick :hmmm:


Been working on a suit of my own and the minium stone is working miracles for me. I think I'll automate Lava->obisidian->iron process

[Nagy]

Last time I checked the AE system has around 10k iron in it. It also knows how to make refined iron on demand.

I think I might teach it how to make minium stones so we can take advantage of those recipes.

[Betonov]

Pulveruzer or macerator ?? :hmmm:

I got enough shards stored for about 6 minium stones.

[Nagy]

Oberon was saying the other day about how entertaining the console messages for FTB are.

I happened to spot this one while loading up the Dire pack today:


2013-09-15 10:47:31 [INFO] [STDOUT] [TConstruct] Natura, what are we going to do tomorrow night?
2013-09-15 10:47:31 [INFO] [STDOUT] [Natura] TConstruct, we're going to take over the world!

[Betonov]

Damn, I cant log in :hmmm:

It shows the server as running but it gives me an error when I try to go in


Never mind, the problem was temporary or the launcher needed updating

[Betonov]

That magma crucible is useless.

It's too slow to even power the magmatic engines powering it. :/\\!!

[Nagy]

So Dire announced yesterday that the 1.6 FTB Dire Pack will be coming "soon". Anybody fancy a server reset and upgrade once it comes out?

Maybe wait a week or two to let them iron out any block ID issues?

[Task Force]

Wouldn't bother me. Have not done much this world.

[Oberon]

Sounds like a plan, I'd suggest that Ordinance Survey map of Britain but it could be a tad large. :haha:

What's the new pack contain?

[Betonov]

Fine by me.

Too bad though, I really like my industrial zone

Just make the nether LESSS psyhotic

[Nagy]

Still no update from Dire as to what will be in the 1.6 pack. But I do find it amusing that just as all the mod authors get their mods update for 1.6, 1.7 comes out...

[Arclight]

Myeah, kinda saw that coming. :haha:

[gago]

I suggest using Unleashed pack.
Enable the Biomes o'plenty because they're cool.

Unleashed has stuff like advanced solar panels, dartcraft, gravi suite, apm...
If you decide to use Unleashed pack, enable all mods but

Death timer(annoying, i've lost some good stuff because it left the chunk loaded)
Vending(up to you, but i've heard it's bugged. Could be cool for trading though(
Nether ores(bugged i think + noone really needs those + they're potentially explosive and Pigmen don't like you mining them)

Not sure if you've already made changes to mystcraft config, but it's probably good to disable cave worlds, meteorites and any other bad effects that cause massive lag.

EDIT: it also doesn't have Gregtech.

See you online if you decide for Unleashed :)

[Betonov]

Situation ??

[Oberon]

[Betonov]

How's the server. Restart happened, did we go with direwolf or unleashed, anyone playing ?? :03:

Bad weather is starting

[Oberon]

Aaah, right. As far as I'm aware the server is fairly deserted, TF might be on it and Keab might be, but I haven't MC'd in a while, kind of ran out of things to do and moved on to other games, Kerbal Space Program mainly at the moment.
In regards to packs, again, nothing has happened as far as I'm aware. I haven't been up to date with what's been happening in the Minecraft world so I don't know what's been released and what it is.

[Arclight]

Think I'll keep the server on holiday for a bit. It was having a continuous nervous breakdown I think; one of the dimensions was constantly sucking out all the performance.

By no means killing it off, just need to figure out what to do, see how the mods develop, maybe run it latest version unmodded for a bit. :hmmm:

Works for me, Cant really mess with Minecraft now as I am busy with collage, but I might mess with it during the holiday break.

[Oberon]

It wouldn't hurt to have an unmodded server going for a bit, make a nice change, I think as lovely as the mystcraft worlds are, they do seem to make the server fall over from time to time.

[Onkel Neal]

Hey guys, I am trying to play the demo; I downloaded it, and registered an account. When I click Play Demo, the MOJANG splash screen appears for about 10 secs, then it goes back to the Minecraft Launcher.

What's stopping me from playing this game?

[Lionclaw]

Do you have Java installed on the computer? :)

[Nagy]

I return from a rather protracted absence from the internet.

An unmodded server would be fine for me, or I'd be equally happy with Dire's 1.6 pack with Mystcraft turned off. As Fox said, those worlds do seem to cause a lot of server lag.

[Betonov]

I'd vote for a mod-light FTB server. I like tinkering with those machines.

[Arclight]

Mm unmodded creative server; could set up a new-years celebratory thingy. With explosions. Maybe?

[Oberon]

There's definitely not a server up and running again for anyone interested in such a thing. Also, I have never, am not and never will lie.

I must admit, I really do hate the new Minecraft launcher, never seems to work right for me. :/\\!!

[Onkel Neal]

Do you have Java installed on the computer? :)


I think so, it's always trying to update.

[Betonov]

I can't connect to the server with the 1.7.4 version :/\\!!

[Arclight]

Sure you got the right address?

[Betonov]

Yep. It finds the server. But next to the 0/10 it displays 1.7 in red and a cross over it

[Arclight]

Odd. All checks out on this end.

[Betonov]

When I hover the mouse over the red cross it says client out of date :hmmm:

I even reinstaled an older minecraft version and it still says the same :/\\!!
I'll just wait for a new server launch

[Oberon]

You might need to update the actual minecraft launcher file, up to 1.3.7, and make sure Minecraft itself is running 1.7.4.

I managed to connect just now just fine. :hmmm:

[Betonov]

I think I'm missing something, but I just can't remember how to update the launcher. :/\\!! :dead:

The vanilla launcher is 1.3.7, but the FTB launcher is still on 1.3.2

[Oberon]

I think I'm missing something, but I just can't remember how to update the launcher. :/\\!! :dead:

And you're connecting through the vanilla launcher, right?

Can I do that ??
Isn't the server still Direwolf20 :hmmm:

Lemme try

[Betonov]

Just connected :up:

Didn't know we went to vanilla :hmmm:

So where's the nearest safeplace ??

[Oberon]

You'll be fine until we start making traps everywhere.

[Betonov]

Soooo, uhh....

Whats up ??? :)

[Oberon]

The ceiling, I believe :yep:

[Pisces]

Or skyblocks, depending on the mods you are playing. :)

[EDIT] And is it me, or is Arc's server not up either? Or did the adress change?

[Oberon]

I don't think there's been a server up in months, I think Arc hosts ARMA3 stuff now.

[Arclight]

Whats up ??? :)
Cholesterol and hair loss.
I don't think there's been a server up in months, I think Arc hosts ARMA3 stuff now.
Sort of, usage was basically 0 and a patch broke it. Haven't put it back up since, haven't heard any complaints, so...

There's 2 things I'm keeping an eye on at the moment: Space Engineers and Project Zomboid. Both feature multiplayer open-world survival stuff, but in both cases we're talking early access. Functional, but a little wonky in places and not complete. Not much different from when we picked up Minecraft.

Didn't think interest for MC would pick up again anytime soon, so was hoping to run a server for one of those. Not sure there's really much interest for either though. :hmmm:

[Betonov]

Me and Gago were wondering if there's anything happening.

While I do miss the tinkering, I think the weather is too nice :)

[gago]

Hello!

Yeah i've been waiting for SubSim FTB server since the 1.6.4 modpack started coming out. I hoped there would be more interest for this than this :P

Most of the new modpacks are now in stable versions and even though DW20 is a decent modpack i strongly suggest going with Monster this time - i've tried it out and i absolutely love it. The only downside for some people(*cough* Betonov *Cough*) is that mobs are harder but that can be countered by altering the difficulty to normal or even easy if neccessary. Otherwise there is a ton of fun new mods along with some familiar ones that have also been changed a little bit, some for the better some for the worse(IC2).



So if you do decide to start FTB again, my suggestion is

Monster v1.1.0
Disabled mods: MeteorCraft and possibly EnderNet(i've heard it has some issues)

server.properties:
- level-type=ATG (it works quite well with BoP, there are some rough edges sometimes but otherwise it's an awesome terrain generation)
- allow-flight=true (i usually forget to change this one and then crash when flying with my first jetpack)
- difficulty=2 ("normal" difficulty, can be changed to 1 for easy or 3 for hard, depends on how challenging we find it)

config changes:
Reika/Geostrata.cfg;
- B:"Generate Rock in Other Dimensions"=false (the alternate cobblestone types can be cool, but they get annoying so this prevents them from spawning in ages/deep dark)
- B:"Lamp Noises"=false (if you play with sound on, this is quite important :P)
- B:"Alternate Brick Recipes"=true (this makes all the new stone types a bit more useful)

mystcraft/instabilities.cfg
- B:meteors.enabled=false (lots of lag, lots of crashes)
(there are other possible disables to reduce lag)


I really hope this idea gets through because i've been trying to make a server for me and Betonov for quite a while now and everytime he tries to connect he gets Can't reach server(yes i've enabled mc/server/java/port on the firewall, i've opened the 25565 port and i'm using no-ip for easier ip.

See you in game i hope!

My name is Garmin Betonov and I endorse this message :up:

[Cybermat47]

Long overdue, but sorry about my post on page 292 :oops:

[Pisces]

Long overdue, but sorry about my post on page 292 :oops:It depends on how many post you are showing on a page. My view only shows there are 235 pages. So the message-number helps more to know what you are talking about.

[Betonov]

There's 2 things I'm keeping an eye on at the moment: Space Engineers and Project Zomboid.


That looks interesting.
Sign me up if there's a Subsim server :)

[Oberon]

I got Space Engineers as well now, thanks to GenoMariner so that's an option.

Meanwhile in other news more related to the topic title, looks like Mojang may be about to help Arclight solve his 'always build above caves' problem:
http://www.rockpapershotgun.com/2014/04/24/minecraft-world-generator-customization/

[Oberon]

So...there has been some conversations about bringing this back.

Modpack thoughts?

Also, I think that we should consider assigning specific titles to people, for example, one person does transport, another does power supply, another does infrastructure.

So, say Betonov makes an oil fired power station to supply electricity to a factory that Keab42 has made, he needs oil, so I build a railway out to the nearest oil well and transport oil back from it to the oil refinery that Task Force has made which then pumps the fuel over to Betonovs power station.

How does that sound? Obviously there can be overlaps since, for example, if Betonov isn't on and something has gone wrong with his power station then Task Force can fix it so that power can be achieved, or if I'm not on and more oil is needed then Keab can take the train out to bring some more back, and so on.

That way there's less overlap in what we're building (so we don't wind up with about four power stations) and we need to work together to make things happen.


Just one slight condition...bags me the train stuff. :yeah:

[Kapitän Schneider]

Nothing that breaks the game. As in, big machines that mine whole chunks and gives you over a thousand of one material. Otherwise most of us are going to do that get bored quickly.

Although I would like to see Galticraft.

[Betonov]

Love the idea.

I'll take the energy department, probably wood fired generators at first until coal starts coming in.

And then, no stopping until we have a nuke :D

[Oberon]

So something with Industrialcraft, Buildcraft and Railcraft as a basis perhaps?

A furniture mod would be nice, and I recommend that we turn mystcraft off, since it made getting resources a bit too easy, likewise things like the ender-tanks. They were nice, but again, a bit too easy.

I'd like traincraft, but with the new ores disabled (so that the diesels run from BC material) however I'm not sure if they've fixed the crash problem that they've had with railcraft, so I'm not too fussed.

Feed the Beast is probably the best option again, I'm looking at the Tech World modpack, going to boot it up and have a see what it has.

[Betonov]

Aye.
I want it to be challenging even in medium late game.

[Oberon]

Aye.
I want it to be challenging even in medium late game.

That is the tricky bit, since by nature we tend to automate a lot of the production, obviously in power generation you have an advantage since you'll be working towards a nuclear goal, and with railways I'll be building constantly as we move around various oil wells, and I'll be shuttling resources back and forth with some shunting (something I really do enjoy).

But what can we do to keep the other stuff challenging? :hmmm:

[Betonov]

But what can we do to keep the other stuff challenging? :hmmm:

Invite some outsiders, give them a plot of land to call their own, leave them alone for a month so they can develop and then invade them for the oil

[Oberon]

:har::har::har::har::har::har:

Actually, I was pondering if we could make our own modpack via technic, and whether it would work on MP...I remember trying to make myself a modpack a while ago and it failed miserably on MP but that was without using technic... :hmmm:

[Arclight]

1. I'd prefer to keep the mods to the essentials. Server is getting on a bit and MC/java aren't particularly efficient with resources. Rather avoid the kind of HD-crashing CPU-melting nervous breakdown full packs tend to induce.

2. Might want to set up some form of project list. Just something so we can keep track of what's needed and what is being done. Should allow some flexibility, considering people have different amounts of time to invest.

Might be able to set up a basic website. Rather ridiculously easy nowadays with Wordpress and whatnot.

[Oberon]

What sort of modpack do you have in mind, Arc?

No need to include traincraft, tbh, railcraft does the job just as well.

[Oberon]

I can't think at the moment, the heat is frying what little remains of my brain, so I'll let someone else pick the mod lineup, all I ask is that it includes railcraft version 7.2.2.0 or above. :yep:

[Betonov]

And I'd request that one small mod, where an entire tree falls when you chop only one lower block.

[Task Force]

Applied Energetics, Tinkers Construct and Thermal Expansion are musts for me. Pneumatic Craft, Extra Utility's and Open Blocks are also mods I would like to have on.

Any idea when we want to try to throw this server together?

[Oberon]

Well, I'm up for ASAP to get my MC itch scratched, but it's a case of finding the right modpack setup out of the Feed the Beast soup. Anyone want to help with that?

[Betonov]

Lets have it by monday, bad weather starts then :D

Ok, Oberon, give me a job.

[Arclight]

Mmmooodddsss!!!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H5CSBZz3eOI

So what then, a modified Direwolf20 (http://wiki.feed-the-beast.com/Direwolf20) or Tech World 2 (http://wiki.feed-the-beast.com/Tech_World_2)?

[Betonov]

Hmmm, I wanted to suggest we leave Energistics out to keep it challenging :hmmm:

Dunno, I'd go with direwolf20 because techworld has no magic.
But then again, I'm not a fan of magic, but I can't talk for all of us about that
My vote is on techworld

[Oberon]

Tech World 2 works for me too, but feel free to take things like Mystcraft and the Portal gun off,

So, jobs...how does this sound?

Betonov: Power generation
Task Force: Mining and resource gathering
Oberon: Railway and resource transportation (getting fuel to the power generation)

Obviously we can all chip in with resource gathering to begin with, and all work on infrastructure, and if Zirran joins us then he can perhaps work with TF for resource gathering.

The first job will be creating a community house, then Betonov can set to work making a power station to power the house, then we'll get a factory up and running and from that we can get the rest of the stuff going.

[Task Force]

I think Portal Gun wouldn't be that bad to have on, but mystcraft can go as its an administration nightmare from the looks.

[Oberon]

I think Portal Gun wouldn't be that bad to have on, but mystcraft can go as its an administration nightmare from the looks.

I think the Portal Gun might have a few problems with rendering and stuff, although I'm ambivalent on it.

[Betonov]

So, jobs...how does this sound?



I meant with the modpack browsing :03:

Yeah, sounds good, power to the people :)

[Oberon]

Excellent, so Techworld2 with Portal Gun and Mystcraft off.

Mr Arclight, make it so.

EDIT: Errr...might want to disable Opis, it clashes with zans minimap, or disable zan, either which way.

[Betonov]

As soon as we start I'll start collecting food, seed, cattle.
And make a small field to feed us.

[Arclight]

Seems to be alive.

Note it's on a whitelist. If your user name is different from here you'll prolly need to send me the correct one, over Steam would be most convenient.

[Kapitän Schneider]

Is the Server Address still the same? If it is i'm not getting through. Either that or I have been out of the loop too long and it's been changed.

[Arclight]

Same IP, default port. And the whitelist thing.

[Betonov]

Same here. I used the previous games IP, and won't find the server.
Updated Java, have the same username as subsim, played with disabling/enabling mods and nothing.

Update:

Just delete the ;25566 or whatever at the end if the IP.
Threw me into a rainy night :huh: :dead:

[Betonov]

OK, the spawn point is in a jungle, nearby are some grasslands and a little further are mountains. Chickens and cows nearby.

Looks like a good site for a colony.

[Arclight]

Just delete the ;25566 or whatever at the end if the IP.
Yes. As in default port. :O:

Is it me or are you disconnecting every 3 seconds?

[Betonov]

Yes. As in default port. :O:

Is it me or are you disconnecting every 3 seconds?

It was in the middle of the night with rain and 2 zombies nearby, no weapons or armor. :oops:

Logged in and out, waiting for a sunny day.
It was intentional

[Arclight]

Goody. It's not that bloody that router being a... router, then.

Wonder I could get away with playing Minecraft at work... Would prolly be pushing my luck a bit. :hmmm:

[Betonov]

The colony is, shall we say, self sustaining. Even made 3 beds inside the ''bunker''.

The mountains are rich with ore, further east there are flatlands, the chests are filled with resources.
See ya in the evening when I get back from work.

[Lionclaw]

Wonder I could get away with playing Minecraft at work... Would prolly be pushing my luck a bit. :hmmm:

IMO, it's not worth it to lose your job because of a game. :03:

[Oberon]

Huzzah, I can now play for a bit!

Let's see what we have...

Oh yeah...not whitelisted... Whoopsie... :haha:

[Betonov]

I'll let Oberon decide where he wants his great railroad junction, and I'll just build a new colony on top of it.

[Oberon]

I'll let Oberon decide where he wants his great railroad junction, and I'll just build a new colony on top of it.

Well, the plan as it stands is to build a workshop in the side of the mountain, this will be where I'll build, store and service the trains. At the moment there's not a great need for transportation so there's no major hurry, however soon you will probably need oil, so I will need to build a railway line from our mountain base to the oil well.
Likewise when we have exhausted the resources below us, a new mine can be built a bit further away, and a railway line can be built to it, and resources carried by train from the mine back to the mountain base.

Basically, you build it and I will come along with tracks. :03:

Of course, first I've got to set up the workshop so I can build the tracks and trains... :yep:

[Betonov]

Be careful, the silverfish use a flanking maneuver when attacking in groups :o

Oh fer crying out loud, made a semifluid generator to burn the creosote oil (I've been coking the coal because coke has four times the amount of EU), but semifluid generators wont accept creosote unless it's gregtech :/\\!! :/\\!!

Oh, there's also a metal former near the coke oven, no more need for hammers and cutters :03:

[Arclight]

What was that issue again btw? Some hammer not being craftable or such.

[Oberon]

I was trying to make a Tinkers Construct hammer but when I put the materials into the Tool Forge it will not make the product. The recipe is correct, I think it is a bug with the current version.

[Betonov]

:haha:
Good one :up:

[Oberon]

I've found a load of oil out to the east, once the workshop is up and running then I will run a railway out to it and someone can set up the oil pumps. Task Force perhaps? :hmmm:

EDIT: Locomotive number 1 'Ivor' has been created, and I've began tunnelling eastwards to head for the oil.

[Betonov]

I'll start on a refinery then and then a thermo-power plant.

The railcraft oil powered boiler and steam turbine ??? :hmmm:

[Oberon]

I'll start on a refinery then and then a thermo-power plant.

The railcraft oil powered boiler and steam turbine ??? :hmmm:

Sounds like a plan. :yeah: So long as we have a power source for EU and MJ then we should be good. Once we have a stable(ish) Oil power source then you can start working on the nuclear project if you wish.

Meanwhile, Task Force, if you would like to head east and set up the oil well, make it look pretty, I know you're good at that, I remember your oil rig from a few maps ago. Something like this perhaps:

http://www.laserkit.com/images/616.jpg

I'll push the railway out to meet it, if you link all the oil derricks up to a central tank of oil and I'll put the railway up to it, from there I can load up the tank wagons en masse and transport them back to the oil refinary that Betonov will be creating for his power station.

Zirran, if you could be in charge of mining and ingot creation that would be excellent, saves us all crowding around the staring wall. :haha: If Keab joins us I'll assign him to join you. If you need to set up another mine a distance away from the main base, let me know and I'll lay out a railway line to help with transportation.

Our main goal right now though is power, so in that respect Zirran has one of the big jobs since he'll be grabbing coal to turn into coke and then putting it in the generator to supplement our solar power.

[Betonov]

The windmill should provide a steady 30 EU/t when connected down, but the rotor will need to be replaced regulary.

I'll connect it when i get home, but if someone has spare time he can do it for me.
