[QUOTE=Pinhead!;39786689]So in FTB im having trouble trying to gather large amounts of matierals quickly. I'm trying to work towards a Quarry but finding diamonds is rather difficult without strip mining *I dont strip mine*. I'm trying to use the clear space function on the Filler but i can't figure out a good way to collect the materials. Help?[/QUOTE] The filler has been abused as a mass-mining machine earlier, so now anything it drops will disappear almost instantly. It has been fixed to do its job at filling or clearing space. If you have stacks of coal (not charcoal) and the EU, you could work on a semi-long and complicated system of compressing a stack of coal into a diamond.

[t]http://puu.sh/2bB48[/t] The coords are in the corner, but I've used "hvitur skóga", ran across this. Might build a house on that platform. And can anyone explain why my FPS goes to shit after playing for 5 minutes?

Well shat, guess i have to strip mine.

[QUOTE=Pinhead!;39786854]Well shat, guess i have to strip mine.[/QUOTE] Either that or make some Mining Turtles and put them to work.

Mystcraft is kind of fascinating, but I'm kind of scared to find the diamond ore page. I mean, I'm looking for it, but it's kind of hard to imagine a game where diamonds occur in massive tendrils right on the surface. I already have mixed feelings about the iron ore tendril world I made. Is there any other cool shit to do with Mystcraft? My friends and I already made portals with link books leading to all our houses, and various other landmarks in our world.

I was afraid that adding the diamond ore thing would cause instability, like how Dense Ores does. Anyway, try recreating something specifically? Go for a themed world? I had no motivation to try figuring out the new writing mechanics until I realized that they would allow me to recreate Mars, which I then did.

Dmillerw, how hard do you think it would be to render a sprite with the sword if said item's adjacent to said sword in the hotbar? [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/UHTmjev.png[/IMG]

Wat?

He wants you to hold a shield if you're holding that type of sword.

Are beehives supposed to spawn underground? [t]http://puu.sh/2bKLX[/t]

Rocky bees, so yes.

[IMG]http://i.imgur.com/UHTmjev.png[/IMG][/QUOTE] Oh, I get it. Umm... I'm not sure if you can, at least without base edits. I don't know how much you're able to tweak or add on to the Player render. Technically it's not difficult at all, just getting it to actually render is the hard part.

Uhh, so not to start drama but why is there a section in the OP devoted to FTB? This is not the mod thread, we don't put mods in the OP generally because the OP is just supposed to be about Minecraft, the base game, we have a separate thread for mod discussion.

We talk about mods a lot in here though. To be honest, I'm not so sure why we have a separate mod thread.

Someone wanted it so I added it.

[QUOTE=FlakTheMighty;39789622]He wants you to hold a shield if you're holding that type of sword.[/QUOTE] Actually, no. It's the kind of item where it only works in the hotbar at certain positions and/or right next to certain items. If done exactly to the right of a sword in the hotbar, a physical shield would appear somewhere on the player's arm and would show more when the player blocked with the sword. Damage while blocking will be drastically reduced if hit and what damage isn't dealt to the player is dealt to the shield before it breaks. I wasn't asking him to do it, I was just asking how hard it would be just with Forge or if I would need something like the [url=http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1261354-147api-render-player-api]Render Player API[/url]. [editline]HNNNG![/editline] [t]http://i.imgur.com/8mcd10q.png[/t] If there's one thing I hate about hardcore, it's how much you are at mercy of bugging into a wall somehow.

I'm just going to assume you'll need to use the Render Player API, but it doesn't specifically say it supports Forge, so it may overwrite some things in classes that Forge relies on. Checking it it's right next to an item however, is easy. [editline]3rd March 2013[/editline] What you could probably do though (I was just looking through the code for BackTools) is make an entity for the shield, and just on your render tick, move the entity into position and render according to player rotation/yaw/position/swing progress/blocking/sneaking/etc. [editline]3rd March 2013[/editline] Just do that for each Player within render distance. [editline]3rd March 2013[/editline] Whoo. Might be taking over development of MineChem.

Is there any mod that allows you the copy-paste into a book?

I made a 40x40 quarry in my server, and flooded the thing with water. Well, when I went to remove the water from the quarry, this happened: [img]http://i.imgur.com/CbEuDgm.png[/img] It was a solid red bar for a long time there. This screenshot shows how it was when the water finally drained. I think I'd better not make any quarries bigger than that. Needless to say, it was the most catastrophic lag the server had ever seen. One person was seeing daylight while another was seeing night, one person saw another one log on about ten minutes after he'd logged off... Shit was scary.

ohgodohgodohgod I'm unofficially maintaining a popular mod... what do? [url]https://github.com/dmillerw/Minechem[/url]

oh double god, now I own MineChem. Hey, you all should go try MineChem.

[QUOTE=dmillerw;39795323]oh double god, now I own MineChem. Hey, you all should go try MineChem.[/QUOTE] is that the mod where you can poison apples with meth if so, good mod

I... don't think so, no. [url]http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1714436-minechem-2-pr61-now-under-new-management/[/url]

welll dang minechem is in one of these modpacks i have, i saw in nei that you could craft a chemical and an apple together but it's not working for me

Well, it might have that as a recipe, I dunno. I haven't gone into the recipe code yet. That's probably a bug though. Can you send me a screenshot of the NEI entry?

oh it works now it wasn't working because i had full hunger, heh

get back to work jesse
