Looking for testers for FTB modpack and server

    I've put together a modpack on the FTB Launcher that I'm looking for people to help test it and make recommendations for improvements and fixes. I've tried to emulate the original Tekkit modpack with some new additions to help expand both the magical and technological aspects of the pack. The pack is stable but there are still some mod conflicts such as duplicate ores and overlapping recipes that I need help with.

    The pack is available on the FTB Launcher here

    The third party pack code is "beagcraft"

    I also have a server set up for anyone who is interested. The IP address is 192.99.0.20:45618

    Due to the fact the pack is still being altered and tested, there is a possibility that this could impact the server but I do not anticipate and resets. There is no whitelist at the moment but that may change in the future. At the moment I am more interested in testing but I would appreciate a post to let me know you've joined.

    The only real rule on the server is no griefing. But any actions which harm the server or other players experience will likely result in a ban.

    The host is being Ddos'd at the moment.

    Well, I just tried that pack in single player mode, and it DoS-ed my PC. Far, far too heavy for my poor "old" laptop. :o

    That's a shame. I'm looking at removing some mods but it will still be over 100

    Server down/being moved/being reset?

    Suggestion for the suggestions box: Move the Suggestions Box away from spawn protect so people can leave suggestions :D:P

    I think the last time I played a pack with EE2 was... what? 3 years ago? :eek: At least those interdiction torches makes for easymode spawn base setup :D

    Server is up and running. There are people on it too. Are you having issues connecting?

    I reduced the spawn protect to 1 radius. It must have reset.

    I can't believe the interdiction torches weren't replicated before now. I'm trying to decide between EE2 and EE3 at the moment.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 18,377 Mod ✭✭✭✭Solitaire


    I was only on for about two minutes earlier when the server closed. After that I haven't been able to connect at all, and it takes almost a minute for the client to decide it can't find the server.

    My mistake. The console had frozen. There was a problem with a DM pedestel from EE2. Deja Vu.

    Noticed one accelerating a salination plant out near the desert. Does the server have a forum or is it okay to continue plonking down comments and observations here? :o

    On that note: Server crash! :p

    I mainly use a subreddit but here is good too.

    Those DM pedestals have really caused havoc. I think the server will have to move to a reset today. I've disabled them for the next map. Galacticraft has also been causing issues so it's going to be removed for a while.

    When I try to join it says the server is out dated.

    Perhaps you downloaded the wrong version. The pack version is 3.1.0. On your main minecraft screen it should say forge version 10.13.3.1408


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,624 ✭✭✭Little CuChulainn


    The pack is being updated to version 3.1.1 and the server is being reset tonight. The update contains some mod changes and config changes so you will need to update to log onto the server. There will also be some new server tools in operation which include teleporting, block logging and chat options. The issues which affected the last server should be ironed out but as it is still ealry days I would appreciate any feedback on bugs you find.


  • Registered Users Posts: 513 ✭✭✭mhiggy09


    So I need to download it first before joining the server?


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 18,377 Mod ✭✭✭✭Solitaire


    I tried to join after updating the config/mods folders (link is on the reddit) but either the server is down, hasn't been reset just yet, or has been reset and my client is being a derp :o

    Yes it should be on the Launcher today depending on the speed of the FTB crowd.

    The server was still being updated. It will be up within an hour of this post.

    Did I crash the server? Got booted the instant I tried to remove my first Antimatter Relay Mk2 from the crafting table... :(

    Seems to be a host issue.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 18,377 Mod ✭✭✭✭Solitaire


    Server still down? From what I can gather the host has changed its IP addresses...


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,624 ✭✭✭Little CuChulainn


    Yes. Unfortunately the world was corrupted and the backup is not working. I'm trying to fix it now. The new IP is 167.114.208.111:25570


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 18,377 Mod ✭✭✭✭Solitaire


    Its my fault - I got a pretty sweet start to the new map, this kind of thing always happens when I do that :eek::P

    I remember making a good job of the start of the Boards 1.3 and 1.5 vanilla servers. They didn't last long either... :o


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 7,624 ✭✭✭Little CuChulainn


    I'm just sorry I didn't get the next update out before it reset. I wanted to add railcraft.

    The server is now whitelisted so post here if you wish to be added.


  • Moderators, Technology & Internet Moderators Posts: 18,377 Mod ✭✭✭✭Solitaire


    Here

    sorry
