Hmm... does anyone have a portal to alfheim (from botania) set up yet? Turns out 8 Thermalilies generate too much mana for a normal one to handle...

I have a temporary portal to alfheim set up next to the large tree north of spawn (across the lake).

It sometimes closes even if its mana pools are full. It usually happens if i use the mystcraft portal book close by; the area stays chunk loaded and the portal does not close if i just log off for a bit. Is that to be expected?

Edit: It seems it doesn't really close in those situations. It's just missing the active portal textures. Weird.

I'll probably wait a bit before starting the invasion, though, in case anyone else wants to see it be activated and raid the buildings as they spawn.

Did you start the invasion yet? If not let me know when

Don't worry dark, I haven't started it yet.

EDIT: See next post

Thought I should post some actual times rather than the vague "maybe in this many hours?" I posted earlier (for when I'll begin the daemon invasion)

I'm unsure what timezone the "Who's Online?" page of your site, Dark, is using but I should be on around 9PM on the 17th and 18th its time (maybe a bit earlier or later, depending on when I wake up since that's around 7AM the day after my time) and be on throughout a 12-14 hour period after (not all that time, mind you, but I'll hop on the server in that period if I'm bored and have nothing else I have to do).

I want to do it ~9AM, 17th but if but if anyone would rather me do it the next day, I'll wait (though it seems more people are online 9AM Sat than 9AM Sun, so it is probably the better time).

The demon invasion has begun!
Well, it actually began about 10 hours ago, but we now have a little community of evil demons

If you're looking to upgrade your altar to T6/get the T6 orb/make some T6 spells or are just looking to check it out, there's a book next to the Nether Portal at the Overworld spawn.
Make sure you have good armour as the demons hit hard (even with their ranged attack) and I'd recommend some form of flight, as the book is on one of the spheres in the air (there are some elevators install but I'm unsure if the one on the ground has been destroyed by the ritual or not.

Special note to anyone playing on the server and taking advantage of the new ability to change your Minecraft username.

It will cause you to lose your Baubles and Thaumcraft knowledge, and also if you have any Thermal Expansion kit set to private will no longer be accessible to you.

Let me know if you change your name and want this stuff back and I'll make the necessary changes server side.

I assume this only applies to the Mojang-name-change and not just /nick

Hey guys, I'm looking to come back to Direwolf, But I'm looking at bunking with someone or staying with others for a bit before striking out on my own, would appreciate some help with either Thaumcraft or Witchery.

Correct

There's a fair amount of a Thaumcraft setup at spawn in the black tower that you're welcome to use, just don't use the two aura nodes in the white tower yet, I'm slowly building them up to be a good wand recharge station in future. I haven't done anything Witchery around spawn yet though, but feel free to pick an unoccupied spot and set something up.

I actually wandered off, and found of all things, A bunch of Crimson Clerics recharging a totem...

How much longer will this version be up? We've switched versions and servers a bunch of times.

I see that version 1.1.1 of the Direwolf20 pack has been made recommended, so I'll see how soon I can update the server to that release.

I've got no immediate plans to change the pack to anything else at present.

I might try to get back on to build stuff. been laying low on MC for a couple months now.

I've now updated the server to the 1.1.1 version of the modpack. Major updates to several mods, plus the new Thermal Dynamics mod (Itemducts etc)

Huh. When I logged on, all my tools were missing again . I guess since they were in the belt they didn't 'transfer over?

Also someone destroyed all the doorand killed all the villagers in our place?

There's possibly been a change to the belt in the update. I'll restore the items. I also owe you some villagers and doors, as I culled the village when investigating a lack of hostile mob spawns. It turned out to be an issue with King Slimes spawning excessively in chunkloaded slime islands.
There's now another issue with hostile mob spawns since the update, but it's unrelated.

Ah, thank yhou.

I've restored the villagers. You might want to re-check your belt though, everything appears to be there already. Maybe the keybinding got reset? I have mine set to i, but have to press Shift+i for it to work for some reason.

Also try opening a chest inventory after switching the hotbar to force an inventory sync, in case it is an inventory de-sync issue.

Thanks, I'll try that.

I've just updated the server to version 1.2.1 of the Direwolf20 modpack.

Does anyone know the most efficent way to change from RF to EU now? Thinking it might actually be pneumaticcraft...

Want to use photovoltaics and a big reactor to power powered armor in n0t_u's underwater home, since I'm doing the techy stuff for her.

At least as far as Big Reactors goes, it'll output directly to RF. I usually like running it to an EnderIO Capacitor for this. Energetic Infusers from TE are good for this too.

As far as EU, Prolly Pneumaticraft, yeah. They took away energy Bridges a while ago :/

Yeah, I'm aware. It was a dumb decision by the developers.

I still don't see why you're so set on mono-power. The resources and time you're spending to convert one to the other could probably just be used to double your energy systems regardless.

I thought someone said the MFR energy cable automatically converted the power types. I haven't tested it though.

They used to, unsure if they still do.

That said, MFR cables can be... tricky. They don't always connect properly with certain blocks (from memory they had trouble connecting with the old TE power conduits).

Did a basic test, works for me:

Thanks I'll use that.

Also, I'm claiming this for later use:

We ran in to a Forgotten Sentinel/Factorization Colossus, but it became invisible and unable to be interacted with even after doing a relaunch of our entire client. Any ideas?

This is all I found:

Hammer (or FZDS, for FactoriZation Dimensional Slices) is a WIP engine upgrade for Minecraft that gives it the ability to move and rotate chunks arbitrarily. It is used to implement the Colossi and the Twisting Block, with more things to come. Unfortunately there are some bugs that happen with Optifine & bukkit/spigot/cauldron right now, and I'm not really able to fix them. However there will also be bugs with other mods, so please let me know about them. Hammer can be disabled by editing hammerChannels.cfg.

Aghhhhhhhhh so I've a bit of a problem...


was helping Iustis with power (and was just on my way to deliver a wireless charger) and then made the bad decision to go through my old linkbook to the mining age. Its how I used to get to spawn. Dropped me off right next to my mining pits.

I dunno if its been a while or what, but soon as I tried to jump dimensions I crashed, so now Im locked in a loop ><
Cant load the world now :/


dark could I get a location reset?

And Iustis- sorry I could get you the charger! D:


EDIT:::

Scratch that.... guess it needed to be loaded a few times. Working now!
