Also i disassembled the door

Damnit. Was about to log on, too.

**Absolutionis**

So I built an Angel Block, and decided to test it out... in the spawn protection zone...

Can't get it back. It's stuck there. Not a big deal and no major loss. It's just a minor nuisance for people, and possibly a bug.

I have no idea what this means. Do I need to open an access port or something?

atio6axx.dll is part of your graphic card drivers. Perhaps you need to update or at least re-install them. There's also some advice in this post/thread.

Mel. I also have a wand recharge station with a bunch of nodes nearby for charging a thaumium wand. feel free to use it all you want. We worked together to get all the research, so we can make you a tome too if you want it. If you want to make your own recharging station, moving pure nodes is your best bet.

**Melissia**

I have everything I wanted out of thaumcraft right now, and two nice additions to the blood magic island as well, so no worries about the recharge station thing.

FtB is getting unplayable for a lot of people. Maybe we DO need a new map... and a rule against making lag-inducing monstrosities....

Or maybe even a different modpack.

**cptprice0330**

Sorry

however a new map without ATG may help things, as going anywhere new melts the server

**Anvildude**

I almost wonder if setting up a custom modpack might not be a better idea- Can't you have it set up, through the FtB launcher, to be able to 'distribute' custom modpacks with a code? So Dark could take a poll of which mods are seriously wanted, make a pack with just those mods, and put the 'custom pack' code up on the server thread?

**cptprice0330**

Back to the 1.7 update and all the adding of mods will be easier as there are no block id's, also i get the feeling something closer to the DW20 pack will be being played in the future

**Melissia**

From what I've seen, the Direwolf pack could be cool.

I've talked to three people that stopped playing the FtB server because of how it's become unplayable. And though it is... mostly playable for me, I kind of agree with them :/

**4oursword**

I think ATG has a lot to do with the server not being that much fun to build on.
I think a custom Modpack would be a good idea in the future, but what exactly makes FTB unplayable in your eyes?

**Melissia**

The lag it produces, both server and computer. Far more than vanilla minecraft or any other previous modpack, Monster is, well, a Monster.

**4oursword**

Would DW20 fix that?

So what mods would we all deem a requirement (for this custom pack)?

**Absolutionis**

Can't ATG simply be turned off?

TiC, Modular Powersuits, AE, anything that adds more liquids. No Gregtech.

**Ramos Asura**

iirc, ATG is disabled on newer versions of monster... might fix our problem with that solution.

**cptprice0330**

turning off ATG will corrupt the world unfortunatly

I don't know about the lag issues i was more meaning the selection of mods for DW20, however it is kept more up to date, and thus has more fixes for memory leaks etc

**4oursword**

It can indeed.

I assume a new modpack would need a complete reset rather than any item transfers being possible. Could be wrong.

I think I would need Thermal Expansion, Railcraft, IndustrialCraft, Tinker's Construct, Openblocks, Applied Energistics, Iron Chests, ExtraUtilities, and Magic Crops.

I would also like to add MrCrayfish's Furniture Mod. I like that one.

**Melissia**

My mandatories, in order:
Industrialcraft 2 + expansion
Tinker's Construct
Iron Chest
OpenBlocks
Extra Utilities

Things That Would Be Nice To Have:
The new portal mod (saw Price setting one up, looks awesome).
Big Reactors
Chisel
Blood Magic
Thaumcraft
Thaumic Tinkerer

(waaaay down below the bottom of the list)

Advanced Energistics

**Grey Templar**

I agree with the above, and would add BiomesOPlenty to the "nice to have" category.

**blood lance**

Include forestry in that and I'd play. I love bees.

**Melissia**

Heh.

Which basically means something like Direwolf20's thing with a few added mods at this rate. Hopefully that'd be less laggy than Monster anyway.

**4oursword**

I also think MFR and Reliquary are important, although MFR much more so.

I'm not seeing much on that list that DW20 is missing beyond magical crops, reliquary, and the furniture one (which is in no way essential and doesn't add that much)

Well yeah, but seeing as we were packing things up to jump to a new world anyways, this isnt an issue.

Yeah, DW20 has most of what we need. I could do without magical crops myself, but I understand others love 'em.

What do you need from Reliquary?

**Anvildude**

Some people just love guns. Heh.

Here's a question: How does the Twilight Forest affect stability and runability? Because that's a mod that doesn't really add anything that changes up gameplay- just different blocks, but it has the cross-dimensional stuff going on.

**Ramos Asura**

really doesnt do much else than adding an additional dimension, so no more taxing on a system than the Nether, really.

**Absolutionis**

Speaking of fancy special blocks, I notice a lot of people on the server using Chisel blocks. The DW20 pack doesn't have Chisel.

**Melissia**

Yeah, that sucks, but I'm okay with not having chisel.

**4oursword**

I like a lot of what Reliquary has to offer, like Alkahestry, but yeaaaah, it's mostly the Hunter's Handgun. According to X3n0 it's based on Hellsing, which is awesome. Has to be said that Twilight Forest is just an old classic which has been in modpacks since pre-tekkit, which i think contributes to it's appeal.

I would like to suggest that Mystcraft be omitted from the pack. While ages are cool, the Deep Dark is a mining age and the fast travel feels out of place with Minecraft.

Did anyone say Ender Storage already?
