Do you have one which works? If you do, please share, I've been after one.

**Corpsesarefun**

Moderncraft should work?

I'd sacrifice guns for no lag and a decent render distance any day, spout makes me run on the lowest settings possible. :(

I think thats a general consensus, I underestimated how many poorly setup computers would be logging in and things have been dead the last few days. What gets me is people that have the issues just simply refuse to just not use guns and login with the normal client and have no issues.

**Tyranid Horde**

I logged in not so long ago and no one was there... I think most people want to play with other people when it comes to zombie survivals like that. Do you still hear the guns when you don't have the mods on?

**Grundz**

no

**Wyrmalla**

=/ The guns are a nice addition, but need to be beefed, and I seem to be the only one getting increased performance with Spoutcraft. I don't know if there's particular hardware specifications for it, but I'm running on a computer that's six years old now (and was only half decent then), so I don't exactly know what the issue is. 25 fps with a high res texture pack seems alright to me. 0.o

Here's the thing with guns
They have penetration, alot of it, basically they pick an angle, and everything in the bullets way gets hit.

1 zombie takes 4 shotgun shells, OMG this thing sucks!
35 zombies take 4 shotgun shells. OMG OVERPOWERED!

guns are more of a utility, you have more firepower than is available to someone without guns, but you really need to gather up ammo and your primary weapon should still be a sword or bow.
Any other way and you have people who are running normal minecraft crying.

**SagesStone**

Yeah, the only gun I bothered carrying most of the time was the shotgun for the knock back.

**RaptorsTalon**

How about enchanted bows/swords instead of guns?
Plenty of different powers on those things.

**4oursword**

Also, why can't we enchant?

**Corpsesarefun**

You can if you find an enchanting table.

are you guys still getting that error when you try to enchant? thats one thing I cant test on my own, I'll doublecheck the permissions tree

Also I cant do enchanted items in chests, the reason is the way the item ID is generated is rather complex (ID#+value for enchant+value for strength of enchant) and the chest loot system doesn't use ID's it uses item names :(

Certainly not working here. Comes up with "You were not granted Sharpness!" or whichever one it is.

**Grundz**

when you get a chance login and try it 4 it should work now

**Tyranid Horde**

I can't connect to the server. :/

**Grundz**

**Grundz**
