      ATTENTION Forum Database Breach   03/04/2019

      There has been a breach of our database. Please make sure you change your password (use a password manager, like Lastpass).
      If you used this password anywhere else, change that too! The passwords themselves are stored hashed, but may old accounts still had old, insecure (by today's standards) hashes from back when they where created. This means they can be "cracked" more easily. Other leaked information includes: email, IP, account name.
      I'm trying my best to find out more and keep everyone up to date. Discord (http://invite.gg/TerraFirmaCraft) is the best option for up to date news and questions. I'm sorry for this, but the damage has been done. All I can do is try to make sure it doesn't happen again.

  1. Dirt bricks, mud walls and stuff.

    Talk to you like what? All I did was inform you that your post breaks multiple forum rules. If you don't like being informed to follow those rules, then I suggest not breaking them. I did not call you stupid, so don't put words in my mouth.
  2. Vegetation

    The funny thing is that I've never managed to find out what our mysterious mb measurement stands for. Wikipedia offers these: Millibar, a unit of pressure frequently used in meteorology equal to one thousandth of a barMillions of barrels (Mb, Mbbl or MMbbl), one million barrels of oilMegabase, a unit of measurement in geneticsBody wave magnitude (mb), a type of seismic scaleMillibarn, a unit of area used in nuclear physics and particle physicsmb, a rarely used unit of Imperial weight equal to 1000lbs or roughly 453 kilogramsMillibel, a hundredth of a decibelThen I searched milibuckets just now and found out it was made up. Gosh that took longer than it needed to
  3. Dirt bricks, mud walls and stuff.

    http://terrafirmacraft.com/f/topic/7328-mudclay-adobe-block/ Marvelous how much can be accomplished with that fancy search bar in the top right corner. The bricks you see in the creative menu are placeholders. The creative menu has many of these items, such as hemp seeds, the ceramic pot, ect. They could be for planned features, or plans that were put on the back burner, or simply left behind. Nobody really knows.
  4. Dirt bricks, mud walls and stuff.

    Hello there, and welcome to the forums! Just so you know, your suggestion of cow poop violates the following section of the do not suggest thread: Manure Dunkleosteus has stated that he is not comfortable coding any way shape or form of a feces mechanic for TFC. Please respect his decision and do not suggest topics that may be considered "disgusting" in nature. This includes but is not limited to: feces, urine, genitalia, graphic diseases. Also, mud bricks have been suggested in previous threads, which you can find using the search bar at the top right corner of the page. As for your idea: Why don't you just build your house out of wood? A stone axe requires no metal, and wood is readily available. Wood also keeps out pesky spiders, unlike thatch.Also, you can use thatch to prop up your cobblestone walls. You can remove the thatch afterwards and have a lovely cobble cube.
  5. [Solved] Sugarcane seeds won't sow

    "the minimum temperature for sugar cane to stay alive is 12" It was probably a little too close to the threshhold.
  6. [Solved] Sugarcane seeds won't sow

    That's the one! And if you don't want to waste your money (or whatever you trade with NPCs with), then don't plant sugarcane in polar climates
  7. [Solved] Sugarcane seeds won't sow

    Howdy! The issue you're having is that sugarcane needs very high temperatures to grow. You're planting in in too low temperatures. The seeds dissapear because they are never even generated; your plant dies so fast that the game doesn't even realize there was a plant there, and so no seeds are left behind. People have asked about this before, and Kitty explained the issue. If that official link fetcher were around, I'm sure he could find the thread
  8. [Solved][79.13.468] Chiseled Block and Falling Blocks

    Well, I was going to reproduce this bug and then upload a video of it, but then I blew up my gaming rig (Actually, MSI blew it up when I sent to to them to have it repaired [That time was my fault]). So instead I recorded the bug happening on a potato! It's very laggy and uses inferior recording software, but again, this thing is a potato. Watch it in action here:
  9. Teaching

    I both agree and disagree. I seem to be the only computer guy/electronic repairman in town. This is advantageous, because it means that when somebody blows a capacitor in their tv I'm the only person who knows which store to go to in Calgary to get a replacement part. If anybody has a computer problem, they call me. Naturally, this can be quite lucrative (Who knew that people would pay you to google their problems?). However, there's a catch. When my sister has a computer problem, she calls me. When my parents have a computer problem, they call me. I don't charge them for my help, even though if I did it would discourage them from making me do ridiculous nonsense like install software that anybody can do. I would jump at the opportunity to teach them how to do it all themselves. I'm not concerned they'll push me out of the market, because I'm not imparting on them all of my knowledge. Now, to the point I'm trying to make. You're right that if you sell the knowledge you're at risk of kicking yourself out of your own market. However, you don't have to sell all your knowledge (Not to mention more advanced knowledge takes longer to teach) to everybody who asks. You give them just enough that they owe you some form of compensation, without creating competition. On PvP servers I'm always the world's most affluent arms dealer. I sell everything to everybody (and usually steal it back at some point too). I never sell anything that would let people create their own source of commodities I sell (Cocoa, netherwart, silk touch, ect.). Also, a high cooking or agriculture skill isn't exactly a marketable skill. I've never seen somebody selling meals and seeds on the multiplayer servers I play on. Now, as for the idea itself, I don't really see a need for it. I haven't noticed the skills having a particularly large effect on gameplay (I'm swimming in food, so butchery and agriculture don't matter all too much. Tools are cheap, so forging isn't a huge concern)
  10. [Solved][79.13.468] Chiseled Block and Falling Blocks

    Well, I've tried to reproduce this bug myself, but haven't been able to figure out the configuration for making this happen. Could you perhaps provide a diagram?
  11. Minecraft=Roguelike?

    Maybe, if you ignore the whole turn-based aspect.
  12. Request for Assistance With Builder's Block

    Say hello to the ugliest house you'll ever see!
  13. [TFC 0.79.23+] Journeymap TFC animal fix

    Hey there! Any chance of 2D icons being developed for this?
  14. What pages should be updated first?

    I'd dedicate a lot of time to creating pages for features that don't have pages already. For example, the loom is mentioned in multiple pages, but doesn't actually have a page. Its function, crafting recipe, ect. are lost to anybody not using the changelog and NEI.
  15. Rings and things: Chainmail armor and related items

    So since I'm the guy who always rains on parades by using math, let's do some now. 1 ingot -> 10 lengths of wire 1 length of wire -> 64 rings 10 lengths of wire -> 640 rings So, the chest piece costs ~88.9% of a bar, the legs take ~50.6% of a bar, and the coif takes 15.5% of a bar. Gosh that's cheap. A full set of armour from 1.5 bars of metal? (Also, why no boots?) If I'm reading the wiki correctly, a set of regular armour (-boots) costs: 2 x metal sheet (2 bars) 4 x double metal sheet (16 bars) So 18 bars vs. 1.5 bars. That's a bit TOO cheap if you ask me. ANother issue I see is storage. You split 64 rings into 4 stacks, so 16 rings per stack. Meaning that if I want to build a full set of armour, I need 62 inventory slots just to hold all the rings. (990/16= 61.875)

  17. A Hard Lesson to Learn

    Always keep a second pickaxe. I died a mere 100 blocks from my bed while caving. I'd been chased down by skeletons, and build a small little saferoom with cobble. Well, a lucky shot took me in the face. When I returned, I had no way of getting into my saferoom. My stuff vanished a second before I punched through the cobble.
  18. [0.79.15] Rhodance's "HugBox" Server [Closing May 22]

    Yes, you do need an In Game Name. Rhodance can't whitelist you if you don't have a username.
  19. Version #:MultiplayerSuggested Name: Zombies Drop Iron SwordsSuggested Category: SevereDescription: It is possible to receive vanilla iron swords as a drop from zombies. Yes, the crappy, +6 damage kind. Also iron shovels, so probably all iron tools zombies carry.Have you deleted your config files and are still able to reproduce this bug?: YesDo you have any mods other than Forge and TFC installed?: YesFastcraft
  20. All these bots

    I'd like to share a story. So a long time ago when I worked with Dreamer's Software (Don't bother looking it up, the company merged) we had forums, just like these forums here. One day a Google bot came along, did its link following and data collection, and left. Every months or so another one would come along, stay for a few minutes, and leave. On these forums, the Google, Yahoo, Bing, and Facebook bots never seem to get a break. They're always here, silent companions as we search for something new and interesting to pop up on the forums. I like to think of them as an ancient order of knowledge hungry seers, using their crystal balls to search the universe for new content. This isn't real, but I like to pretend it is. The seers have dedicated themselves to archiving every bit of knowledge in the universe, and have an infinite appetite for new stories. But because they already know everything that exists at this moment, they are perpetually bored. Every new post is like New Year's fireworks, which they devour with the wonder of a reading a book for the first time. This isn't real, but I like to pretend it is. And so they continue perusing the forums, hoping for some reprieve from the insatiable desire for more. And when I post this thread, for a few fleeting moments, they will be satisfied. They will copy its contents and file them away in their grand library of knowledge, in which every page of the internet is kept. And there, on the shelves of eternity, it will remain long after I am gone, a perfect record of what I wrote her today. It carries a piece of my soul, and will exist long after I leave these forums. This isn't real, but it might as well be. So what is the moral of this delusion? Firstly, no idea, however small, is inconsiquential. People like seeing new content, so don't be afraid to get creative. Make a cool new suggestion or contribute to an existing one, show off your awesome houses (Seriously, the showoff forum is a graveyard), report that bug you've been abusing for the last 10 releases, ect. Secondly, there's an army of bots waiting in the wings to record what you're doing, which is why if you search "politician who misspelled potato" Google knows exactly who you're talking about.
  21. TFC 1.8 ?

    #PeasantComputerProblems
  22. TFC 1.8 ?

    Not sure there's really any hurry/point to updating. What exactly would be gained? Other than banners and rabbits, we either already have the content or wouldn't never have access to it in survival anyway. Sure, there's a couple game modes, some commands, and a different skin model, but those are hardly worth the effort.
  23. Ore smelting

    Drop in in a ceramic vessel, add fire, and poof. Or, plop into a crucible, Pretty much the same was any other non-iron metal. As an aside, platinum does not have a use in game. EDIT: Redacting the statement about the ceramic vessel. Ignore that part
  24. Tracking Skill

    Yes, but never have I been hunted down by a moose simply for being nearby. Moose don't prey on humans.
  25. [Solved] Why Can't I Find Clay!?!? 1.7.10

    The wiki also claims that these types of berries can be found ONLY growing on peat. But considering that berry bushes are rather rare, that might not be a good way of looking for peat. On the plus side, charcoal is very easy to make
