derp I need to read things better.

anywho I found a spot that should be suitable for my needs, 2 nearby villages with at least 2 close siverwood trees. there is also a "dark nexus" looking thing nearby that is a dark node from what I have accidentally found out in my single player adventures.

Annoyingly, tomorrow I'm off on holiday to some dump with no internet access. So by the time I'm back, all of the spots I'm after will have been nicked.

For the record, I want a breeding population of Roseters. So if you set up shop in a Garden Biome and want to go on a genocidal purge, please leave two so I can buy them laters.

There's certainly a large variety of biomes now. Map looks like a patchwork quilt.

you can also build off of the natura clouds or gather them and make a cloud city!

In preparation for the server going live this evening (and before you're all too eager to play than to read something), please read the list of bugs in the first post here, so you know to avoid them:
http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/ftb-unleashed-modpack-bug-reports.26729/

Most of the bugs only hurt yourself (like losing resources). However, a couple of the crash ones (like putting spring water or poison water in a tank) can leave the server in a state where it needs to be MCedited to fix it. So please don't do it. To do it from ignorance/accident is one thing, but if I find someone doing it on purpose, they will be banned.

On server issues, what did you decide to go with for the mining age to alleviate that ...issue? As I'll woefully concede, I was the main cause of lag at certain points due to ...being an self involved idiot, I'll be acting a bit more mature this time around. I'll be on my best behavior (...or at least not as bad) and do my best not to find some other marvelous ways to kill the server this time around. =P

The mining age? What issue? The mining age is the same. Unless you meant the cave age. I changed the cave age to a desert so there aren't any thaumcraft goodies on the surface. Redpower isn't there to spam the cave age with marble either this time.

The diggy place. ...Its hot here.

Tah. ^^

And 90% done, time to procrastinate with a quick view over.

Including stairs down to the more industrialised part of it... well if I had to build that part and it wasn't on superflat.

Looks good! Reminds me I have quite a bit to do

I like the towels

Okay from the map the spawn area looks fantastic, as do the initial patchwork of Biomes. Really nice work Dark. I'm really looking forward to playing this!

Are those giant balls of Glowstone floating about in the Nexus?

Thanks! It looks a bit better in game when you can actually see all the blocks in the structure.

Those are giant glowstone spheres in the nexus, because why not? They're suspended over a void, so it's more dangerous than the nether There are also more spheres that are not shown, but unfortunately the current release version of Dynmap has a bug showing nether quartz.

Looks could so am i going to the nether?

Wait was the old server deleted?

Backed up for download. There's a link a few pages back.

Is there a new server?

...That's what the previous few dozen pages of this thread have been about. Darkinnit's planning on releasing it tonight, but you'd need to get his input to confirm that. =P

Ok so we are doing a new server because 1.6.2 is out and is built for modding and we need to get a new launcher, correct?

The new server's on the 1.5 update, as that's the latest one and should remain consistent for a decent enough period (presumably the same amount of time as the previous one existed). A Ftb update for 1.6.2 won't be out for a good while, so it was decided to patch to 1.5 rather than stick with the current server for whatever reason. The new launcher doesn't really effect things I don't think, its background changes that are the issue, but again I pay little attention to anything outside the vanilla patches, so Darkinnit's your guy for such questions.

Though on that note I think that that topic was covered in the FAQ Darkinnit wrote up a while ago (check his articles).

Well I'm not specifically asking you wyrm, it just your the only one so far lurking in the thread.

It will be Minecraft 1.5. You need to use the same FTB launcher you use to launch Ultimate.

I'm just finalising some things and hope to whitelist you all at 8pm (in less than an hour).

If you want to get ready before then:
(If you have already played Unleashed, you can skip the first three steps.)

Download the Feed the Beast client and log in to it with your Minecraft account

Select the Unleashed v1.1.1 modpack and click Launch

Once you get to the Minecraft main menu, quit the game.

Start the launcher again and click “Edit Mod Pack”

Select “Biomes O’ Plenty”, “Hats” and “HatStand” and click "Enable”. Leave "EnchantingPlus", "DeathTimer-Beta", "NetherOres", "vending" and "PowerConverters" disabled.

Click Launch

Click Multiplayer, Add Server, and enter: ftb.darkinnit.com:25585

Once the server goes live, you should be ready to go!

8:00 Players Whitelisted

8:15 Twilight Forest Nuked

8:16 Darkinnit posts a picture of a crying Native American again. ^^'

n0t_u's pre-design makes me feel like i have been playing minecraft wrong all this time.


i am trying to break away from my blocky medieval castles to something better looking so i am trying my hand at medieval castles with... CIRCLES!

i will have to take some screen shots of my single player area as i think it is pretty sweet.

i found a large mountain that is mostly hollow that i built stairs into, the stairs lead into a tunnel. The tunnel dumpes out at a river so i added a gate and drawbridge to an NPC village.

i am thinking of making my mountain enterance hidden by having a waterfall spill over the front when the gate is down.

Nukes are still disabled.

The only other nerfs/changes are:
Mystcraft: Book binder, link modifier & inkwell disabled. (Linking books are in a community chest until they fix the trade station bug).
Portal Gun: Moon shot does not suck blocks
Biomes O Plenty: puddles do not form during rain (because it messes up the landscape and they never disappear)
VoxelMap: Mob radar is disabled. Cave mode is disabled except for the nether.

If I haven't mentioned a nerf, it's because it isn't nerfed.

YEAHHHHHHHHHHHH

No nerfs agianst the minium stone.
<(' . ')<
>(' . ')>
Chachacha

Server's rebooting! Here we go...

Typically I'm reinstalling everything right now...

First death on the server!

The NPC village and surrounding lands around 650, 650 are mine. Developments will be up in the next few hours.

I hereby claim this area for an ongoing project!
