      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. Acacia leaves disappearing

    Hi there I am running a home server with Technodefirmacraft and I have found an odd thing......when I travel through acacia forests the leaves all disappear off the trees.....this is disturbing to me as one source of fun in the game is controlling the fires from the weather mods dry lightning.......has anyone else had this issue and if so, is there a fix?
  2. Technic server

    Fair point......it's just so very convenient to get your pack out to people........I actually tried to join your server but I was in jail....lol.....musta done something wrong. I still think TFC is the best thing that ever came out of Minecraft (just an aside). Thanks for the reply.
  3. Sult water

    I can't answer your question but I am keen to try your modpack.....is it on the site that must NOT be named?
  4. Smithing takes all the fun out of this mod

    I struggled with the smithing a bit and find it a bit of a pain in the ass but it is rewarding. I personally liked the old system where "close enough" netted you a slightly damaged tool. I also find that smithing is something I have to be in the mood for. My only regret with TFC is that the world is empty....I can make a bunch of stuff but who is going to buy a red steel pick from the last (and only) man on earth?
  5. WIP [TFC-0.79.29] TerraFirmaProgressivePack

    I am going to guess that this modpack isn't on any of the sites which host modpacks......I am scared to even mention their names. I suppose the manual install is a good right of passage so only the worthy get to try your modpack.
  6. I shall bestir my lazy self to offer a heartfelt agreement to Will's statement......it is the best iteration of Minecraft (by far!) from a systems point of view. I can't even imagine playing vanilla MCany more (though it was brilliant for a while).
  7. TFC360

    This'd make a good server....just saying.
  8. TFC360

    I have determined there is no way in HELL to find your modpack on the Curse (cursed) site. I tried any number of times to search and no dice....then I scrolled through the endless list of bloody modpacks.....nope. Your modpack sounds interesting but my mouse wheel has overheated from scrolling....cheerio.
  9. Better Forest Fires

    This is very much like the idea my friend and I have discussed...it would be wonderful. One problem...trees grow idiotically fast....this should be greatly nerfed. Our server had trees taking (species dependent) from 3 to 10 weeks REAL TIME to mature.....loved it and we never came even close to running out of wood...but hey...its a procedurally generated world so just range farther afield. Thanks again for your excellent suggestion.
  10. Better Forest Fires

    I have tested a fire mod that my buddy made and we have plans to try to implement it into a server...this is merely a plan at this point. I truly would sell my soul to "Ol Nick" for an accurate depiction of fire in TFC.
  11. Economy

    No worries mate.....It would be very difficult to do all the buy/sell list from my server but I could tell you it is Roanoke 5 and it can accessed through Tthe Technic launcher with the platform url www.technicpack.net/api/modpack/roanoke5...please feel free to look around and copy any of our prices and ideas. The key is finding things the players WANT to buy...land, status items, political power, furniture.....resist all the whiners wanting to craft stuff so they have to grind some coin to get all the nice toys....just my thought. Hope this helps. I completely support your initiative as I reject the current game model of just trying to come up with different colored ingots....it don't grab me at all.
  12. Economy

    You have an uphill battle my friend but I applaud your efforts. It was/is my objective to have a thriving economy on a server but it seems tough as heck to do. I can give you a couple things from my experience.... 1. There is simply too much stuff....ore everywhere...stupid trees that spring up overnight....dumb fruit trees that bury you in product...insane crops that grow like proverbial weeds....so how does one make an economy in this hell of plenty. We did it by making ore crazy scarce and trees that took weeks to grow.....this scarcity helped somewhat but the low player density on an eternal map makes even this measure only marginally effective in combating the hell of plenty. 2. If you have a server store for players to sell stuff to you also need something they want to buy...this is a big problem. We had it so almost everything could be sold.....peat, food, logs, cobble, ingots, minerals...I do mean almost anything. Then the tough part...what to SELL the players...we had certain things like horses, small boats, vanilla blocks and even disabled some crafting recipes so purchase was the only way to get certain items. We also sold land with a high chunk limit (250,000) and a low price (3 iron coins...this being the sale price of a stack of fir logs). Problem....no one bought into the concept...just bought 10 chunks and set a "base" up then poked away at making the banal "red steel" ingot that marked the games conclusion :/ Anyhoo I hoped this helped and wish you well on all your future endeavours..thanx for the opportunity to vent. Btw....to any potentates of TFC I hope I have not offended your excellent creation...it still is and will likely remain the best iteration of Minecraft.....period!!
  13. Thanks atila...I did some work tonight but thats enough...wonder how it happened?
  14. Looking for Whitelist, TFC Only

    We have a server, Roanoke 5 that is listed here...it is modded but you can buy cheap land that protects your stuff. We are thinking about going to a whitelist too to keep the fools at bay. Please do note it is a modded server and is running our own version of TFC with different ore generation and longer tree growth times....not everyones cup 'o tea but we like it. Have fun wherever you play. http://roanoke.enjin.com/
  15. The Night

    Ok so....what makes the night dangerous...answer, hostile mobs. Questions...why do we need idiotic hostile mobs popping in just because it gets dark!? I am sure this august community and the game developers can come up with something better. Hows about some ideas for dealing with the root of the problem rather than the branch.
  16. The Night

    The core problem is how hostile mobs spawn....it gets dark and they pop into existence...daylight comes and they burn up and are gone. This was a clever way to introduce foes 3 years ago....now its absurd. The developers of Microcraft (oops) need to come up with something superior....a goblin village, an orc encampment, a xenophobic village, a sloth of bears, a pride of lions, bridges with attendant trolls, etc. I really laugh when folks say "we need more realistic mobs....wolves, cougars (the bitey kind, not the buy you drinks kind) but no one mentions the archaic mechanism of their introduction. Anyhow....not quite about beds but somewhat related...have a nice night all
  17. Looking for a new small 18+ vanilla TFC Server

    Hello there. I am an admin on the Roanoke 5 server and we would be glad to have you join us. We are not vanilla TFC but have modified some of the basics to provide a server with more challenge than normal TFC. It isn't everyones cup of tea and we are still running build 77 but the changes made to the basic TFC are worth it....also its mainly mature players. Here's our enjin site address....glad to see you there. http://roanoke.enjin.com/
  18. Hey there.....just wanted to say there are players back on the Roanoke 5 server (well, some anyway) and we are only to happy to see more arrive. All the CustomNPC vendors are working and there is a new railway to take a ride on...see you in game.
  19. Ok so...some players have come back and others have been invited. I advise people to come back and play....if you bought land it will all be protected and you can start where you left off from...beats the heck outa starting over from scratch. In addition, though I have played several servers with different modpacks you will NEVER find a better mining model than the one on Roanoke 5....never. Hope to see you soon.
  20. Hey folks....there are a few of us back playing on Roanoke...the trade area in spawn has been restocked/emptied and new roads are springing up...also looking for people to build a railway....hope to see you on.
  21. Mob Changes

    Hi there TFC community. I thought I would put my two cents in again(I must be over a buck by now with this). I am absolutely fed up with the old system for introducing mobs....it gets dark and endless numbers of boogies pop into existence only to burn up in the sunlight. This was a clever mechanic 3 years ago but surely the brains of today can do better. Merely changing the mobs to something else isn't enough....its the mechanic of introduction that is the issue. If I'm being ganked by mobs that pop into existence just because the sun goes down I don't care if its zombie or zebra....it makes little sense. All mobs need a reason for their presence, bears hanging out near towns for the garbage, a pride of lions on an equatorial savanna, skeletons infesting a swampy graveyard. More might be introduced by the presence or lack or presence of humans....goblins move into a building keying on the fact the chunk hasn't been loaded in a month and there is a player placed door.....I don't know, just ideas. Anyway, please comment and tell me I 'm full of poop. later =)
  22. Mob Changes

    In fact I didn't. I assume Dunc highlighted it as it was relevant to his post.
  23. Mob Changes

    That sounds fine
  24. Mob Changes

    Cut and prune as you please
  25. Nerf Water Stream Blocks

    Well....I hate to say it but it was kinda fun wrangling with it (but once was enough!). It took 3 1/2 people in creative over 5 hours to fix it. It was very much like fighting a forest fire, something I am quite familiar with.
