  1. WIP semi realistic 32x texture pack Looking for opinions.

    will do. I'm going to wait until i have more to show though. Also, it's weird that it's not there because it was a few hours ago. O.o
  2. Concentration

    Lol MC is 3D and as long as the graphics aren't so bad that they make my eyes bleed then 3D is enough for me. However I personally draw the line at 3D (very small list of exceptions). On that note I am over complaining about ore distribution. I have changed the way that I mine and am now having more success. I still think that Bioxx should be careful (careful is all I'm saying) that he doesn't make it too hard and tedious or like bsb23 said, it may effect the amount of people who actually want to play the mod. I don't think he's doing all this work so that an very small group of people will enjoy it. That said I am still enjoying the mod and understand that it is in beta and am not going to make any judgements until it's done.
  3. Title says it all. Just got the server up and running and I need to see if other people can connect. If you are interested let me know and I'll PM the IP to you. Thanks in advance!
  4. Concentration

    The method I used only took a brief watch of a video. @Deez: Really? You like to spend hours digging through rock and not finding much of anything? If that's the case then I suppose you have no issues with the new ore distribution. As much as I would like to try Dwarf Fortress I just can't get over how horrible the game looks. I play MC because I like so actually SEE my work when it's done, lines and pixels that look kind of like a fortress don't cut it for me. Also i don't like the idea of having to wait on little dwarves that have needs and wants to do what I want done when I can do it myself in another game. The reason I like TFC is that it is more realistic than vanilla and more deep. If the ore generation stays the way it is that's fine it's up to Bioxx. Moreover, when the mod stabilizes more I'll start letting more people on my server and with more people we could set up a trade network and getting the ores I need for metal working will get easier. It just seems to me that this leaves people who like to play single player with the short end of the stick. I know this mod is mostly meant for SMP but I also know that Bioxx does want SSP to be a viable option. I think that if things keep going in the insanely hard and realistic direction with no thought for fun and people who don't have a group of people helping them that this mod might lose a lot of followers. I'm not trying to complain just trying to find a middle ground where everyone can be happy.
  5. Concentration

    I agree to a certain extent with what you are saying. I have no problems with the prospecting pick I am able to pinpoint ore with it just fine. However, since pre11 (and now in pre12) I find that ores are ridiculously hard to find and I mean this to the point where I'm not really having fun anymore. A lot of people that I've talked to are now using x-ray hacks just to find it. I don't think that the ores should be as easy to find as they used to be but I think we need a happy medium. I love this mod and the only issue I know have is with the ore generation. I enjoy a challenge but looking for over 6 hours just to find one type of ore (that I NEED to progress) and NOT finding it is overkill and has really taken one of my favorite aspects of the mod which is mining and made it a boring, annoying and very frustrating chore. Everything else seems fine to me. I completely disagree with what you said about the prospectors pick being useless. If it tells you there is a sample all you have to do is dig out a 23x23x12 area and it WILL be there. Also you can get small sample then move and get medium sample which usually means your moving closer to a bigger sample. If anyone else agrees please say so.
  6. Whats the difference between a sword and a mace?

    I was trying to figure out the stone mace too. When you check NEI for a recipe nothing shows up.
  7. I no longer need testers the server runs fine. However, I am not opening it to the public until I have a way to make it more secure. Thanks for the offers to help though I appreciate it.
  8. Although I don't want griefing I'm not really that concerned either. This is beta after all. The world WILL have to be regenerated at some point. Right now nothing should be considered permanent. Griefers will be banned if they are around so no worries.
  9. Server is back up and running!
  10. In the proccess of updating to pre6.... but I had some drinks so bear with me lol..
  11. regrowing leaves

    Saplings are not that hard to get and tree farming is already viable. I do it all the time.
  12. Can't make sword blade

    Yes you are. Swords and maces need to be made with double ingots. Happy crafting. Also, there is a whole thread dedicated to double ingots if you need help.
  13. [B2pre2] Bloomery Crash

    Cool I'll keep that in mind thanks!
  14. [B2pre2] Bloomery Crash

    Okay, so in order to recreate this crash I smelt some ore in the bloomery and when its done and the bloomery still has charcoal in it I break it with a pickaxe. The first time I did this was to reset the gui since it doesn't update in B2pre2. The crash happens when I try to pick up the bloomery. Here is the error report: Mods loaded: 12 ModLoader 1.2.5 mod_CodeChickenCore 0.5.2 mod_ModLoaderMp 1.2.5v1 mod_MinecraftForge 3.1.2.96 mod_TFC_Core 0.2a mod_SmartMoving 8.3 mod_NotEnoughItems 1.2.2 mod_Somnia v24 [1.2.5] mod_Backpack 1.2.5_v2.5 FML mod_InvTweaks 1.41b (1.2.4) mod_Debug 1 mod_TFC_Game 0.2a Minecraft has crashed! ---------------------- Minecraft has stopped running because it encountered a problem. --- BEGIN ERROR REPORT f480ff52 -------- Generated 5/7/12 9:36 AM Minecraft: Minecraft 1.2.5 OS: Windows 7 (amd64) version 6.1 Java: 1.7.0_02, Oracle Corporation VM: Java HotSpot 64-Bit Server VM (mixed mode), Oracle Corporation LWJGL: 2.4.2 OpenGL: GeForce 9500 GT/PCIe/SSE2 version 3.3.0, NVIDIA Corporation java.lang.NullPointerException at aan.e(ItemStack.java:202) at aan.g(ItemStack.java:215) at aak.a(SourceFile:207) at fq.a(EntityItem.java:190) at yw.n(EntityPlayer.java:553) at yw.e(EntityPlayer.java:544) at vq.localOnLivingUpdate(vq.java:1030) at vq.e(vq.java:912) at acq.J_(EntityLiving.java:673) at yw.J_(EntityPlayer.java:264) at vq.localOnUpdate(vq.java:1070) at PlayerAPI.onUpdate(PlayerAPI.java:4068) at PlayerAPI.onUpdate(PlayerAPI.java:4053) at vq.J_(vq.java:1058) at xd.a(World.java:2182) at xd.f(World.java:2153) at xd.n(World.java:2039) at net.minecraft.client.Minecraft.k(Minecraft.java:1861) at net.minecraft.client.Minecraft.x(Minecraft.java:819) at net.minecraft.client.Minecraft.run(Minecraft.java:747) at java.lang.Thread.run(Unknown Source) --- END ERROR REPORT 2772ba0e ---------- Hope this helps, I'll post it in the bug report section as well.
  15. IGN:jointertron (all lowercase) Age:22 Read and agree to server rules? Yes indeed. What do you want to do on the server?:I am willing to do anything, although I excell at building, I've also gotten pretty good at smithing and using the prospectors pick.
  16. Unstackable Double Ingots

    Okay then. Thank you. I couldn't find anything about it and was just wondering. So again thanks for clearing that up .
  17. Texture bug

    You need to provide more information. You haven't said anything that would allow someone to help you. When you installed the mod, what did you do with the textures zip folder? Did you put it in your jar file?
  18. Sequoia Saplings?

    This is incorrect. I get saplings from all trees except Sequoia and Kapok. You must be very unlucky. I started with 2 maples, a few hickory and some pine. Now I have made a forest of those trees just by starting with a few. With the exception of the Sequoia and Kapok I get about 2-3 saplings off all of my trees (occasionally less but occasionally more as well). One time I got 5 maple saplings off of one tree. Are you havesting ALL of the leaves? Or do you sometimes break one that removes all of the ones attached to it?
  19. Dummy's Guide to Double Ingots

    Anyone else have problems when trying to stack double ingots? I lose them when I try to stack them.
  20. Sequoia Saplings?

    Holy cow. Okay, so my comment earlier comment has NOTHING to do with MC. I also clear cut trees in MC. Bioxx simply had this as part of the game and meantioned that it reminded him of the IRL issue of shrinking forests. I though that was a little inspiring. So I just thought that since he meantioned it, I would say something about the IRL issue. I did not mean to start a heated debate. Although, I would like to say that in my opinion it's the people who actually go to work and physically cut the trees down that are the cause. They are the actual people cutting the trees. The corperation and the government didn't cut down the forest they just asked people like you and me to do it and we did. People need to learn to say no, and stop doing things just because they want to make money or "progress" in their lives. Anyways, with that said I don't think that people who cut down forests in MC are bad, ignorant, or anything like that unless one of the server rules is to not do it. It's just a game, try not to take it so seriously. TL DR version: Your not bad for cutting trees down that don't really exist. However, IRL PEOPLE are responsible for deforestation. Not corps or the gov.
  21. Sequoia Saplings?

    It struck a chord with me too. Not many people that I talk to in my day to day life know this but right now in South America the few native Mayan people who are still left are being kicked off of their land so that logging (among other things) can happen. What makes this even more sad is that along with the forest being destroyed, the people who are farmers that have always lived off the land are now being forced to live in "Housing Projects" and pay rent. Since they have no skills or education that are recognized by our society they can't make money and often end up homeless. It makes me sad. However, the fact that so many people care is good. It might not seem like much but even someone like you, Bioxx, making that comment really makes a difference and helps to raise awareness. So again thanks.
  22. Sequoia Saplings?

    Well said sir. Thanks for clarifying that. I also agree with your reasoning for it. I'll also add that I AM a tree hugging hippie so I like that you through that in there.
  23. Sapling nursery

    Has anyone ever been able to get a Sequoia sapling? I've cut all the leaves off of 4 of the big ones and got nothing. Is this a bug, bad luck, or intentional? As for the other trees I usually get 2-3 saplings off each one so my tree farms don't shrink but I really like the idea of having a Sequoia farm for making charcoal and have not been able to get any saplings without using NEI. Moreover, even when I use NEI to get some Sequoia saplings I cannot get them to grow like the big ones, they just make 1x1 block wide trunks and I'm really only interested in the 2x2 ones. EDIT: I still like the OP's idea though
