His modpacks are nicely balanced between tech & magic imo. And he does know his stuff.

jujumushu · 09-12-2013 01:03PM

But you see, why have some of the stuffs...when you could have ALL of the stuffs...

But this time definitely hats...all the hats.

Also that Tinkers Construct stuff needs to bail. It's far too OP once you make it to the hollow hills in the Twilight forest...and as much as I love autosmelting shovels now... it's ridiculous!

Also...the minium stone...needs to die in a fire (except maybe for making mossy cobble) because that is also..OP

well because the bigger mod packs require a hugely ow earful and therefore expensive server. I still like TC. I rarely enter the Twilight forest

you'll be glad to know the finished version of EE will be out before Chrirstmas. it's not going anywhere

No TC4, TE3, Buildcraft updates & horses for you then!

jujumushu · 09-12-2013 01:15PM

Pfft I don't care about horses I care about stained glass and sure that's there anyway

Wow, people grab a couple hundred iron/gold and are then all flying around with 6x speed infinite-power jetpacks with 92% absorb energy shields and railguns... and you think TC is imba??!? :pac:

Also, AFAIK Ultimate is dead, and has been dead for a while. Its the reason why FTB is in such big trouble and has lost much of their playerbase - there's no longer any semi-balanced mediumcore modpack available for it

If you look at some of the modpacks they plan on releasing in the next few weeks, it looks like theyre trying to fix that.

Solitaire · 09-12-2013 03:52PM

Official word from just a few days back was that it would be out SOON³. And not even Blizzard/MekTek SOON³. They actually stated it was Valve SOON³. Ergo, probably in 20-30 years time, same ETA as Half Life 3 ._.

miralize · 09-12-2013 04:05PM

Well the launcher was updated last night with a new modpack called Horizon and new modpacks were announced with an ETA today

are we getting a 1.7.2 map out soon or am i being too hopefull

AirBiscuit · 10-12-2013 04:30AM

Hows about putting up a tekkit server? It NEVER gets updated so there'd be no problems :rolleyes:

Shiminay · 10-12-2013 12:59PM

I'd wager that we're still waiting for a stable 1.7.2 Bukkit before we can roll out a new server. Having spent a total of one minute reading Evil Seph's post about the Bukkit team's work, it looks like there's been a significant set of changes under the hood in this release which in turn makes the modder's job very difficult. I don't see why Mojang doesn't just hire the Bukkit Devs to work alongside them internally, it's the de-facto standard and would make a great fully fledged addition to the game.

Bull_Boy · 10-12-2013 08:40PM

Ta-Tadadaaaaa!! The 1.6.4 Direwolf20 FTB pack is out! I haven't checked how balanced it is, but as far as I know it's not too bad. Ars Magica is in there, and may be a bit OP, but it is fairly new.

Solitaire · 11-12-2013 04:32AM

Ars' inclusion is interesting, especially given Boards might go with DW20 if there's no progress on a 1.64 Ultimate (or at the very least Unleashed) analogue soon

FTB Monster is out soon, replaces Ultimate. Few surprising disclusions & you need a fairly good server for it.

Bull_Boy · 11-12-2013 01:48PM

I think it will probable take a few weeks to test the Monster pack (2 weeks minimum, according to Slowpoke), then it will come out and will more than likely be changed as we go. I wouldn't be opposed to us using the Overload, or even Overload Lite, pack on the Boards server. The FTB guys are rushing around trying to get their setup going as a full-time business, so things aren't going to go smoothly. I would love a new FTB pack though, so let's hope I am wrong!!

miralize · 11-12-2013 02:07PM

Private pack anyone?

The Snipe · 11-12-2013 11:47PM

Doesn't sound like a bad idea, we can choose the mods and that suit everyone then too.

After getting stuck in a mystcraft age yet again (For the 3rd time thsi week..) I give up.. I'm just gonna play single player until the new map.. how the hell did I get out and not leave a damn linking book at spawn?! And I'm in a damn desert so I can't even use the minium stone I have to make obsidian!

Solitaire · 12-12-2013 01:16AM

Only one slight catch with that... our Admin is pretty busy irl and manually setting all the configs and stability testing the ensuing frakensteinian mess is fairly non-trivial if anything decides to murder itself and the server rather than play ball

Universal configs make that super simple

deconduo · 13-12-2013 04:57PM

Gonna be testing a temporary DW20 server soon if people want to pop on and try it out.

miralize · 13-12-2013 05:03PM

I would!

Server is up on the usual ftb IP: 188.165.244.23:25566
Running on the latest DW20 modpack

Solitaire · 13-12-2013 05:34PM

I was just there minding my own business and went on Unleashed to whitelist people and suddenly- AMG DEC BROKE TEH SERVER ITS WRONG VERSIONED!!1!

Is Vanilla down btw?

Shiminay · 13-12-2013 05:49PM

What flavour of Vanilla is running?

I took down vanilla to prepare for 1.7.4 I'll start up the fresh map as soon as there's a beta build of bukkit. Shouldn't be too long now, there's been a week or so of dev builds up now.

Will the map be kept if we stick with it?

Generally speaking, a fresh map is put up when the server is updated. There's compatibility problems otherwise.
