      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.

Placing down Ores in creative

7 posts in this topic

Hi all, i am working on a new texture pack for tfc, and i was setting up my test world, when i realized i cant set down ore veins. now, i have seen this photo https://dl.dropboxusercontent.com/u/21315217/tfcraft-ore.png on the block heads pack, so i know its at least somewhat possible, unless they just re textured other blocks temporarily to show off the ores...but that just seems like a pain in the butt for testing that my pack is looking ok. do i need to use something like world edit?

What exactly are you doing to try and set the ore veins down? Are you trying to place the ore item, or the actual ore vein block that just looks like stripes when you cheat it into your inventory?

i have tried both, the vein block is clear for some reason, only shows like, native copper or something and no stone under it. the ore itself wont do anything

Tested on copper and borax. Gave an X-ray effect when placed.

The way that ore blocks are rendered was changed in 78 to help increase general performance and reduce lag. Unfortunately a side effect of this change is indeed that manually placed ore blocks do not properly render because they do not contain all of the data that they get when they are naturally generated.

 

The official statement in regards to this bug is that TFC is a mod for survival mode. Any issues and bugs that happen due to cheating items or blocks in, or through the use of any gamemode other than legitimate survival are extremely low priority, and will probably not be fixed for a long time.

I've also seen the invisible blocks glitch when joining a server or when mining an ore block exposing another ore block when I have a lot of lag.
