      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. More/ More Realistic Ores

    Isn't Limonite what bog Iron is. Platinum is the rarest metal in TFC and is more rare than gold IRL, but I haven't seen any ores reliant upon others but I have found traces of platinum once. With silver ore it spawns also with (like you said) galena and tetrahedrite but it isn't always found with them.
  2. More/ More Realistic Ores

    A thing with ore generation that I find annoying is that some ores are unrealistic. An example is that Tertahedrite is too common, in real life it is not very common and Sulfosalts like Tetrahedrite are found in small amounts near the Surface. Hematite and Magnetite are both mixed up, Magnetite is found in nearly every Igneous Rock, however Hematite is literaly rust, which is found in massive ore deposits in Sedimentry stones. I am almost certain that Native Silver is found in the same rocks as other Native Metals like Copper or Gold and rarly with Galena. Olivine is a very common rock found in nearly every Igneous rock, Minerals like serpentine are found in Sedimentary rocks. The Iron ores I think are too rare, also the most common Copper Ore is Chalcopyrite which is found in Igneous Intrusive. Garnieterite is Nickels version of Bauxite which I suggest should add more Nickel ores but in low amounts. Kimbertite is a Igneous rock found around Magma tubes. Until recent times Sphalerite was not much of an ore, until recently Smithsonite was the major Zinc Ore.

    Can you buff the arrows? It took me 15 full charged Wrought Iron shots with a composite bow to kill a skeleton in copper armor.
  4. More/ More Realistic Ores

    That is not usually true, rocks on the surface only show the first layer where (except for granite) Tin and Iron cannot spawn, and you rarely get many ore veins in one rock deposit. I also did a little bit more research and found that Hematite is although not often found in Igneous rocks, and Magnetite can be found in sedimentary rocks from riverbeds and gravel. And that Native Silver can be found with Tetrahedrite. Also Iron is not rare in real life, it is the 3rd most common metal (I am counting Silicon) in the crust however Hematite is found in large beds in sedimentary rocks and not often in Igneous (My source wasn't specific but likely extrusive) Other forms of Iron are also found like Geothite and Siderite. Hematite is just the most mined.
  5. How to find better metals like hematite?

    Deposits except Nickel.
  6. How to find better metals like hematite?

    I planned to but then I realized that it likely wouldn't fit in the world. I found caving with night vision to be quite beneficial 3 Gold, 11 Tetrahedrite, Traces of Garnieterite, 2 Kimbertite, 2Cassiterite, 3 Bismuth, 4 Sphalerite (One found in Basalt), 2 Native Copper, 1 Malachite, 4 Saltpeter, 2 Lapis Lazuli, 1 Magnetite, 2 Hematite, 4 Limonite, 1 Galena, 3 Kaolinite, Traces of Olivine and Pitchblende, 2 Gypsum, 2 Jet, 1 Graphite, 3 Cinnabar, and uncountable amounts of lignite and Bituminous Coal purely from Caving throughout many caves.
  7. How to find better metals like hematite?

    I planned to but then I realized that it likely wouldn't fit in the world.
  8. bald Trees

    This also occurs on SMP.
  9. Mobs acting weird before death.

    They take damage. But they also seem to be undead meaning that I kill them they drop stuff then I kill them again and they still drop stuff.
  10. [TFC 0.77.22] Strongcraft (v0.1.4)

    Can you change it so that Stone and Bone arrows use sticks instead of footed shafts?
  11. Larger boats

    The mode of transport through water is different form place to place. Egypt primarily used boats of straw or reeds strung together. The Americas used Canoes by burning the center part of wood. And the Polynesians used canoes with rafts on the side.
  12. Brass as a tool metal

    I'm pretty sure that Brass is too brittle.
  13. Double Suggestion: Art & Wine/Beer

    I think the most useable part is Grapes, but I think you need to better explain how to paint and play music.
  14. thermometers when temperature is implemented?

    Hmm this is an interesting suggestion, to make this useful they would have to remove the temp from F3 to make this useful. I'm not sure however if it fits.
  15. More/ More Realistic Ores

    It has been stated recently that Lead with likely have a use soon, Platinum at the time that TFC takes place was useless and is very rare.
  16. More/ More Realistic Ores

    I didn't come up with the Colored alloys and I am not suggesting more alloys this thread is about More Realistic ore generation and Correction of ores. If you want to remove the alloys then make your own suggestion thread.
  17. More/ More Realistic Ores

    You can not make Corundum, Diamond, Carbon Fiber, Tungsten Carbide into tools like Pickaxes or Swords. Also the time line ends around the 1300s. And you do realize that the Primary reason you start with stone then copper to Steels is because that is how history worked.
  18. More/ More Realistic Ores

    Because that seems much harder to implement. And changing ore changes the amount of metals you can get, making Iron ores more common would make Iron cheaper and Copper more expensive. While changing carrying capacity could make tedium.
  19. More/ More Realistic Ores

    If realism was not key then why not make a magic mod, I am merely suggesting stuff that bugs me that I feel if changed would be more balanced and Realistic.
  20. [TFC 0.77.22] Strongcraft (v0.1.4)

    Smithing Rods and Arrows don't seem to work for me
  21. [TFC 0.77.22] Strongcraft (v0.1.4)

    Wootz stell should be in level with Black Steel. I think that Wootz Steel, Platinum, and Black Steel Would be used to make Damascus Steel Which is a higher level level than Blue/Red Steel. But this mod has much potential and the current and planned features sound very good. And is it just me or is smithing broken for this mod?
  22. Falconry - Let birds hunt for you!

    So the Ultimate weapon would be a swarm of Golden Eagles My friend would be so happy. Also the players health is around 2000 so 5 damage is nothing
  23. Drinking is too slow in bodies of water

    Wouldn't it be Frog-Skin since fish don't absorb water through there skin easily.
  24. Roman-style aqueducts and lead pipes

    How laggy is that mod? It seems very interesting but possibly too many block updates.
  25. Falconry - Let birds hunt for you!

    I'm okay with falcons hunting Chickens and Pheasant. I also would think it would be cool if you could send messages to other players by Falcons.
