      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. Lag - Lumber vs Chiseled Blocks.

    My experience, and that of others, does not seem to support this hypothesis. I have also conduced a few test and they also point towards a big difference in lag. 2 exactly the same, fairly large builds, one with a lumber roof and the other with a smooth stone chiseled roof. I can easily walk around and place blocks in the lumber house, but when I try to do exactly the same in the chiseled house I have (quite a lot of) lag. When trying to place blocks there is a substantial delay, walking around is far from smooth. I haven't looked at the FPS as I don't really care, I find it way more important that when I place a block, I don't place two or three blocks at the same time. I do not contest what you say, it may very well be utterly correct in theory, but when I have the above experience on multiple servers and this experience is shared by multiple people, I would rather not see it dismissing outright so easily. Maybe there is an underlying cause, something else that also influences lag that is tied into the chiseling concept, I don't know, that's why I am putting this out here.
  2. We have updated TFC to the lastest stable version, which is 0.79.29.922 (make sure your Forge is up to date, you need Forge 10.13.4.1558). You can download the correct version of TFC here and the correct version of Forge here.
  3. More like Someone I can play with on a server.

    Your best bet would be to join one of the servers in the server thread, an intelligent lad as yourself shouldn't have to much trouble figuring out how to join a server. Just in case, a few links... Mojang | How do I play on a multiplayer server? How to Join a Minecraft Multiplayer Server (PC and Mac) - YouTube The server information you need can be found in the above mentioned server threads. Good luck, I hope you find what you are looking for!
  4. Flowers to mark the location of ores.

    I have seen the same on other server. People don't see the nuggets and start complaining about the lack of ore. Even after 6 months of continuous mining by hundreds of players I was still able to find ore within a 200 block radius of spawn. But a lot of the people who complain about the lack of ore don't want to look for it, they don't want to search for ore, they want it handed to them on a silver platter. I agree with InsaneJ TFC might not be the right mod for them. Then again, if those people don't mind trading for ore, there will always be people who are able to find ore and are willing to trade it away. I like the suggestions made here, and I would most definitely like to see configuration options for them, so they can be implemented gradually so the people who are good at finding ore do not loose their edge.
  5. Servers?

    There are several different ways you can join a server, have a look in the different server threads, it is all explained there. For some you have to fill in a small questionnaire, for some you have to join a website, some you can join without doing anything. Good luck finding a nice server!
  6. [Closed] [0.79.28] FeudalFirmaCraft OPEN

    You should have a look at the kits and packages you offer, they are not EULA compliant... Minecraft EULA Minecraft EULA Q&A
  7. Wild Crops

    Harvesting those crops will not only give you food, but also seeds, those seeds can be planted at your base for a more readily available food supply.
  8. After receiving reports from our players we decided to follow Happy Diggers' example and also tweak our food decay. We similarly changed our decayProtectionDays setting from 24 to 6. Check out Food Decay Russian Roulette or the EternityTFC website for more information.
  9. We have updated TFC to the lastest stable version, which is 0.79.28.908 (make sure your Forge is up to date, you need Forge 10.13.4.1558). You can download the correct version of TFC here and the correct version of Forge here.
  10. Have a look at our newly started server: EternityTFC.

  11. TFC server

    We would also welcome you on our server. We just opened last Saturday so the map is brand new. You can check out our server thread here: [79.26] EternityTFC - Subscription Based Server - Fresh World.
  12. @InsaneJ: Thx! @Tony: Thx! for the suggestion, I had not thought of that. Although I would love to give you access to check out the build on our server, this would not be fair towards other people who might want to sneak a peak. I am not sure if breaking the rules on the day of the launch is the way we want to go... P.s. Tony, clean up your personal messages, I was trying to send you something but you cant receive anymore messages.
  13. Hi TonyLiberato, Thank you, great to be here with a server of my own. I will convey your compliment to Motherwyvern, especialy since we do not have the Carpenter's Blocks mod on the server. This little inn has been made with a lot of lumber and some chiseling, only native TFC blocks have been used.
  14. tfc tiles

    You don't happen to have a list handy of the ticking tile entities?
  15. I have been wondering what exactly causes TFC to use memory and CPU power. I know that MC can only use one thread so a multithreaded CPU has very limited advantages, better to go with a high speed one. I know TFC has an increased ceiling, 256 instead of the MC 128 blocks. I know that chiseling increases the amount of block sides that need to be rendered (theoretically up to 256 timesas many sides per block). I know that entities take up recourses. When exactly is something loaded and unloaded? How does this exactly work together with teleporting? To what extend does the map size dictates memory usage (disk space is not an issue). I have seen server admins do a lot of things and sometimes I really wonder what they are thinking, do they know something I do not or are they just completely bonkers... I think it would be nice to clearly understand the what and the how, so that (aspiring) server admins can take a little bit of a closer look as to how they are using their recources or how to get as much as possible out of the limited recourses they have available. Thanks in advance!
  16. Reasons for memory and CPU usage.

    Thx! J, you mention somewhere that there is a maximum number of tile entities before it times out a server (forgot where I saw you write that). Do you have a number you can put on that?
  17. Reasons for memory and CPU usage.

    Are chunks being unloaded the moment a player is out of render distance of said chunk? Or do they stay active fora time?
  18. [Can't Fix] Server Exception ticking world

    InsaneJ, were you able to solve this by disabling destroying ore for a bit?
  19. Standalone TFC?

    32*32*32=32768 blocks per chunk. 16*16*256=66536 blocks per chunk. Is the render distance the same in chunks, blocks or not the same at all? Also, what is happening in the background? You are comparing apples and oranges.
  20. Overpowerd planks ?

    Chest are worked upon, they look more elaborate hence they need more wood.
  21. The "Magic" of TFC

    Could that perhaps have anything to do with an argument that keep popping up about how one group of people will not enjoy playing the game anymore if another group of people uses certain advantages?
  22. [Solved] torch can't give light while in my hand

    This feature has nothing to do with shaders, it is part of the Dynamic Lights mod. If you want this then you have to install this mod. For more information on this mod and to download this mod, please go to http://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding/minecraft-mods/1272478-dynamic-lights-portable-and-moving-lightsources.
  23. The "Magic" of TFC

    I am sorry, I just can not help myself. And this is entire the problem, your example is faulty. P1 will be angry anyway, no matter if P2 will use a legitimate way of smithing or is cutting corners. There is no way for anyone to tell if P2 is using an app/website/pen & paper or just trial and error. This app will not help you level up, you still have to put in the effort of making a whole lot of tools for that. 99% of the people using this app are not willing to put in the effort to learn how to smith the hard way, what gives you the idea they will put in the effort to make all those tools needed to get to the master level? And also, dont sell your players short, there is such a thing as loyalty, just because there is a slightly cheaper smith out there doesnt mean all of a sudden people are going to change there minds about which smith to use. Another point, a lot of players are lazy (not meant in a bad way), when they find something that works they tend to stick with it, so if they have a smith that they work well with it is actually easier to keep using that person. I think we all agree that this can not be stopped, and a website like the one mentioned above cant even be monitored or bocked by an app black/white list. By banning these things from the forum you are sticking your head in the sand, because people who are inclined to utilze advantages will do so anyway, a simple Google search will reveal the app or website. You are actually depriving players, moderators and admins from the information. Have you considered that it might actually be benificial for server admins to know what is out there, where it can be found, how it works and the abbility to talk about this? As with so many things, people who want to do bad will always do bad, they can not be stopped, but by blocking the information actually deprives people of the information they need to understand and possibly fight these apps or websites.
  24. The "Magic" of TFC

    How do you expect to change my mind by saying I haven't fully understood what it is about and repeating the same arguments again and again. I have only seen the same arguments I have been seeing on this forum ever since I joined, no matter what counter argument was used, so you guys are as dug in as I am. The pollis a very good and clear way to see what the community really feels, because it is anonymous. Now look at the amount of votes, and then took at the amount of unique posters in this thread... My opinion in this is pretty much made up but not set in stone mind you. But that has more to do with the fact that I am not defending my personal opinion but that I am defending the right for peopleto enjoy a community that does not suppresses any information. As requested I will not post in this topic again. P.s. Just to clarify, with 'you' I do notmean youpersonal Kitty orBunsan,I am merely referring to the opposite side in this discussion.
  25. The "Magic" of TFC

    Why not just accept thatthere are people who do not share your views? I understand your point of view, I just disagree with it. If you want a democratic decision, you should go with the 70ish % that say sub forum. If you don't want anything of the like on this forum, take a developers decision to not allow it, you would be fully within your rights. But if you want us to change our opinions, don't bother because that is not going to happen, just as we will not be able to change your mind. The only thing I have been trying to say is that there are a lot of people with different opinions, and some of theseviews will be directly opposed to your views. What kind of community do we want to be, one that accepts all based on the mutual respect and admiration for this wonderful game or one thatrestrictspeople that do not share a particular point of view? I am very sorry for stating it this bluntly, but that is what it eventually boils down to.
