Minecraft

[late robin]

minecolonies is also in the pack, so u can do that whole run a village to generate resources / defenses as well - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=irl3EMpEQ0I

[mild sorrel]

I have always tried to get into MineColonies but usually it requires a bulk of resources to actually get going

fun mod, just lot of micro-managing

Also, is the world-gen staying on release, just getting wiped? maybe ill start planning a base location

[mild sorrel]

is there 'keep-inventory' on? or no gravestones on death?

[graceful flare]

oh wow, thats pretty nice

i haven't died yet so idk what our deaths look like, i think there is a gravemod of some kind tho

And no i think the world is being wiped after full release of the server, just to keep things fair i think

[mild sorrel]

I know things will get wiped, but wasnt sure if there will be a whole new world-gen or not. I started exploring to see where to start building if world will stay the same

[graceful flare]

oh i see

that is a good question. Is it a good seed?

actually i suppose that question is relative

[mild sorrel]

spawn area is in a snowy biome and i dont really like/care for the snowy/icy biomes. If you go out west, there is more 'grassy' biomes

and maybe north, i didnt go that far

[late robin]

keep inv is enabled, however the gravestones are in your inventory when u respawn.

there is some mechanic where spirits spawn or something. idk, but its some mod that changes things where dying can be useful for something magical

[late robin]

if u guys got a seed, lmk.
I have yet to start working on world gen, focusing on fixing recipes and working out any memory leaks rn.

probably will start the world-gen around thursday

then do some custom additions to it on monday.

I like to make custom items and hide them in the world.

[mild sorrel]

idk why im excited to play again, my little time has been consumed playing a WoW pserver lol

[graceful flare]

omg, thank you so much for fixing all this stuff man. I know its more for you to actually have an easier time running the server, but the amount of effort you putting in is wonderous.

Whats your OnlyCavs?

😂 😉

[mild sorrel]

I dont have a seed but i can explore some worlds for one

Sweets really putting in the effort for the 2-week MC phase

@upbeat jetty i hopped on the Arcane server. Still looks about the same as last time haha. I kind of miss the big project

[upbeat jetty]

Yeah I was on there the other day and showed some of the newer people there and they want to rent out shops and plots to sell on. Might be a good way to fund it.

They keep adding a bunch of funny random shit and it’s getting less and less vanilla which I’m not a huge fan of. And the economy is not the best tbh.

[mild sorrel]

Yeaaa. I hate all the custom items they have. I could care less but doesnt really make the economy all that great (some builders with Inf. Blocks, sure) but kind of makes trading pointless almost

The sword i got though, basically unlimited flight sorta

[inner shore]

the only reason i still go on it is because we spent so much time on it

but budd is right its starting to get cartoonish

[late robin]

https://only.troopers.7cav.us/sweetwater

[graceful flare]

Hot 😉 😂

[marble bobcat]

Is there an official server for the cav? Or am I mistaken

[mild sorrel]

No official server. Just the spontaneous cycle of hosting a server

[graceful flare]

so looks like automation will be a big thing in this pack (of course) im just wanting to know now, are we collaborating in a world group effort? because oh my goodness me, this will be monumental for a group of 5 let alone 1 person

also, since you guys have looked into the pack yet, what are your thoughts so far? I quite like this pack, many interesting things but i am finding it easy to get overburdened and distracted from all sorts of amazing stuff in the world and to craft

[mild sorrel]

We can probably collaborate on some parts. It takes maybe a month for a regular person to get ATM star

There is a bunch of mods that dont really pertain to the ATM star so you can play it however

[marble bobcat]

If I made a server with a custom pack...
Would anyone play it?
What mods

I was thinking 1.21.1

[late robin]

If u make one, let us know so we can pin ur server info in the thread pins. but there is no such thing as official "7th Cavalry" Minecraft server. since none of them will have approval by the organization as a mandated game we maintain resources on.

My Minecraft instance is running on a dedicated server I'm renting, and I believe others are doing something similar to that effect.
I am setting up an ATM 10 server, which I intend to have available for play on SEP 19th.

@graceful flare
I setup a bluemap instance if u want to check out the current world seed I'm looking at using.
https://map.sw386.us/

Its also whats currently on the server if u want to look at it in game.
@mild sorrel lmk if that looks more appealing than last. (I only gen'd 5,000 block radius to get an idea)

[mild sorrel]

5k block radius should be plenty enough. There is /rtp for random exploration too anyways so that falls within 3-5k i think

[marble bobcat]

@late robin could i speak to you in dms?

[late robin]

just dm

[graceful flare]

Lemme take a look.

Yeah I like it. I wish there was more wild looking variety of biomes. Almost looks like vanilla biomes with a handful of the mod ones splashed in. But maybe this pov is deceiving too

[graceful flare]

I was looking at all the stuff that goes into making one. I am man enough to admit. Im out of my element with that level of crafting

[mild sorrel]

I think the map can be deceiving, there is a lot of mix of biomes though

[late robin]

the random flying islands are interesting

but yeah, probably jumping into the server and looking would give a better picture, some mods dont work well for textures on Bluemap. I mainly use it as a 3d map to get an idea of what it looks like, or to see what ppl are working on.

you also got like 6 different dimensions to use as a base as well. one being specific to magic

im gonna try a different one rn

[late robin]

hmm, look like this one starts with desert at 0,0
gonna let it bake another 500 chunks and see how it looks.

[wise mirage]

you chillin in the desert and you see that

wyd

[mild sorrel]

Going inside

[late robin]

walk like an egyptian

[graceful flare]

https://tenor.com/view/homelander-gif-4442548120011315856

fr! Um so i just made a "powerful" sword, that is intended for PvP I only figured this out after I created it.

and wasted my super duper Diamond enchanted sword

im sad, but also F that mods swords, Mahou Tsukai, idk what it offers for its other "top tier" sword, but i aint ever doing that again.

waste of sword and effort

had to kill the ender dragon, whilst battling it you embue the sword in the dragons breath to upgrade the sword, and it made it terrible with what i had before.

also a desert spawn wouldn't be the great, the Pyramid is great n all, but I think we all need basics off the rip in order to get a healthy start. Just my opinion though

[mild sorrel]

Mahou mod has a whole questline to upgrade the sword. It goes through a whole path and eventually it does become an OP sword i believe. Just takes time

[late robin]

looking like its gonna take all weekend to generate the overworld + nether + Twilight dims

I think I'm sticking with this seed tho, it has all the biomes within a 5k block radius, other one was missing a few.

I'll be extending the overworld to about 15000 blocks, nether to 3000 blocks and Twilight to 3000 blocks.

and ill be pleading with you guys to not use the portals for the end, nether or twilight forest.

I got /warp for those.

trying to avoid worldgen due to coordinate scaling and where u pick your homebase.
on a positive note, it means u got instant access to those dims at the start.

At this point, I'll just be wiping player data when SEP 19th comes around

so you guys can look for a base spot now

[upbeat jetty]

I’ll come play

[mild sorrel]

Lameeeee. Now i wont have a nice portal room to make lol

Least that is kind of nice. The End portal i always dread trying to find

[graceful flare]

yeah apparently there are two seperate swords, and the one I made was special for PVP stuff.

the other one I should have gone for is for mobs and the ultimate sword

[graceful flare]

it isnt as hard as one might think, thankfully i didnt need to travel 2k plus to find a portal

So we can probe for a base, just dont wanna start anything since it'll get wiped. Right?

Ok so whats the game plan then? Do we all wanna work towards the star as a group?

Since there FTB teams n such, I think a lot of stuff can be co-progressed on

[mild sorrel]

You can do solo or teams to co-progress. Or do solo but still collaborate

I dont care, i generally do solo to do stuff at my own pace but i dont mind people doing things like making Reactors or AE2 storage because im never at that point

Or always get sidetracked when i start building those things

[graceful flare]

fr!

I wouldn't mind teaming with someone or like you said, doing it seperate but collabing

I dont mind AE2 its just tedious is all, but I like the end result of easy storage

[mild sorrel]

I just never get autocrafting set up properly to make the processors and etc for me

[graceful flare]

i havent done so before either so, maybe thi swould be a good time to give it a go

[late robin]

there is a distinct difference for what you can do,

##############
A.
Use FTB Teams and have said ppl join your team.

• Any achievements are shared across the team, but the first one to claim gets the reward.
• You can progress through the questline quicker, but also will be dealing with situations where the other players in your team either complete things too quickly, and progress to where you miss out on several progression steps.
  Or you have teammates that are too slow, and you are causing them not to be able to enjoy the progression.
• Rapid Gameplay.

###############
B.
Don't use the FTB Teams,

• Use the in-server market and sell/buy or barter for items you would like that the others may have or supply them with it.
• Allow people to use your machines / resources for their own gains, and expect them to do so as well.
• You will be the only one who can deal with the quest line progress.
• Slower Gameplay.

I am adding a time = money system on the game where the server pays out x amount per x time. you can use that to buy certain items that help early base setup. and or sell items in mid/endgame to gain enough for extremely tedious items to grind for.

you'll also be able to setup a shop and sell/buy things through it while offline. (aka sign shops)

[graceful flare]

Yeah I think option B can work well, because its not like we cant just hand a item over to gain progression either

Option A of course would require people to be on a even pacing, because others are faster than some people. Ive been slowly working my way through various parts of the world and dimensions exploring. Most of my time has been away from base, on exploration missions searching for specific Items and then coming home with a gold backpack full of stuff

[late robin]

alright, fyi on the shop signs, incase u never used them before.
to setup a shop, you place a sign on a barrel or chest..

The sign has 4 lines from top to bottom.
line 1 will require either [buy] or [sell]
line 2 and 3 are for whatever u describe the item to be.
line 4 is the price, it has to be a decimal but no more than a hundredth place.
so,
1 = Incorrect (Must be a decimal)
1.2 = Correct
1.23 = Correct
1.001 = Incorrect (cannot be thousandth or higher decimal point's)

Example sign:

1 - [buy]
2 - AE2 
3 - x64 Fluix Dust
4 - 15.00

^ When you right-click this sign, you will buy AE2: x64 Fluix Dust for $15.00, if chest has it in inventory.

When you are setting up the shop, it operates per inventory slot,
if the slot has a full stack of items in slot 1, then it will sell/buy in stacks.
make sure to indicate how much of an item you are selling/buying so it works appropriately.

If you are setting up [sell] signs, and you don't have enough funds in your wallet, it will refuse anyone who tries to sell to your shop.

[late robin]

alright, full map has been generated for ATM10 server

https://map.sw386.us

finished around 0200 Eastern this morning

if u guys need more than 15,000 blocks in any direction... ima choke u

[graceful flare]

Me 3 hours in, Meh I still can't find anywhere i wanna build my base.

1 hour after, Oh look a place that is perfect for my base! 18000 blocks from spawn

[mild sorrel]

Highly doubt ill go anywhere over 2-3k blocks from spawn for a base. Unless world-gen is REALLY that bad in providing something decent

(insert Minecraft Far Lands)

[late robin]

main thing is to allow u guys to explore without causing blocklag

for looting / raiding strongholds...etc

also make it harder for you guys to find my world-edit POI's ive hidden

[graceful flare]

Fr tho! If its terrible then sure, but i agree i wont be going stupid far away from spawn i dont think

[graceful flare]

how hard are we talking? Like remove a single block in a specific place to find a atomic dissassembler or something like that?

[late robin]

like one bad step and you cause a chain reaction of 128 nuclear devices.

[mild sorrel]

https://tenor.com/view/uh-oh-oh-no-fire-flames-bald-gif-17885369

[late robin]

[Thrawn.N] Has chosen to PRESS the red button labeled "DO NOT PRESS"
1,258,192 sq block area has been obliterated in the north.

You didn't pass the Science Skill check to disarm the Megaton bomb in Megaton City.

https://tenor.com/view/indiana-jones-nuclear-explosion-nuclear-kingdom-of-the-crystal-skull-explosion-gif-25107922

[graceful flare]

FR! thats the kinda forbidden access I wanna see. Complete doomsday scenario. Or if the mod had it, like a series of Redmatter bombs detonating. Then its a race not for the ATM star, but for Antimatter bombs.

https://tenor.com/view/trump-everythings-fine-its-okay-okay-gif-7645437

[late robin]

random server chat:
[SERVER] Rolling d20 perception check for Thrawn.N

your minecraft experience will be evaluated by DnD 3.5e rules

[late robin]

all fun, till someone logs back in to find their base ravaged by cataclysmic heat death of the primary star.

now that I think about it, that would be an awesome mod idea,
you got 30 days to gather and tech up enough to bunker up before the primary star collapses and shatters the planet into a skyblock type of landscape.
then you'll need to rebuild and get far enough tech to travel to a barren planet with underground ice that you need to globally heat up to create breathable atmosphere.

[graceful flare]

Chat is he cooking? 😁

That is actually a really fun idea, imagine all of us seperated too, and having to work our way to one another to collab on working towards a new world

the real challenge would be arrive to a barren planet and needing to terraform it

[late robin]

extreme version of project ozone

[mild sorrel]

Are waystones marked on the dynamic map with an information icon? or are those your "hidden POIs" you were talking about

oh i see in the settings, waystones markers

might go out west when we play, lot of interesting biomes and structures out that way

[graceful flare]

Hey you cant just copy my idea 😂

[mild sorrel]

its the best looking area since we get spawned in middle of desert, ocean, and random floating cliffs lol

guess i could try looking out east

[graceful flare]

I like the awesome looking floating island snakey Tower looking thingys

[upbeat jetty]

Fine

I’ll come play

Ip?

Nvm found it

[graceful flare]

The server for prayer data will delete before we all start playing. To keep an even playing field. As it is now we start on the 19th

[upbeat jetty]

Got it; so not worth it to start now. Just get on on the 19th?

[mild sorrel]

it will start on the 19th yea

you can explore and get a feel for things in the meantime, it will just wipe

[graceful flare]

ok so once again I have a severe setback in my play test of the pack.

PSA. Never under any circumstances die in, near or on the mobgrinders from the Mob Utilites mod. Because it destroys your grave and everything you had in your grave is now gone

[mild sorrel]

that is definitely interesting

[graceful flare]

so after some research, you can. Recover your inventory, with commands even after logging out of the session (in theory should work in MP too)

[late robin]

wiping player data, map stays the same, so technically u can early start a base if u are inclined

[graceful flare]

so i actually recovered my lost items, most of which are hard to replace items as of now

[late robin]

keep inventory will be on as a gamerule

its default off, but i like it on cause I dont care to grind

[graceful flare]

oh sweet! so i can rush head long into danger not knowing if itll kill me or not

fr, like the grind is ok if you dont end up losing it all in a bad judgement call or fluke interaction

[late robin]

sure, u dont keep your XP or magic tho, probably a penalty there

[graceful flare]

good point.

i was working on a mob farm that would address that very issue, of needing XP

but also some recipes require liquid XP so im working on trying to do just that

[late robin]

mob griefing = off
keep inv = on
playertotalsleep% = 15%
elytra/flight check = disabled

[graceful flare]

what does the last one mean?

[late robin]

probably gonna set the limit of forceloaded chunks per player to 25

last one is that annoying kick if going too fast

its too keep people from overloading the server with chunkgen cause they are zipping across the server at a really fast rate (usually flying elytra with rocket boosters or something)

but i pregen, so its no problem

but yeah if you guys want to AFK farm with machines, try to keep them within chunks so you dont need to go over your limit of 25

if u build it across 2 chunks or more, then ur gonna limit yourself.

[graceful flare]

Oh yeah. Good one to turn off!

So should farm constructions be based in chunks then? For server friendly reliability and function?

[late robin]

well, forced-chunkloading is just so that the server keeps that 1 chunk loaded even when no one is on the server.

so if its something like power gen, or something u need to keep running all the time, force chunk load it

[graceful flare]

Oh ok. And we'll have access to 25 per player?

[late robin]

when u claim land through the FTB claims interface, if u right click on a chunk, it force loads it

[graceful flare]

Gotcha

[late robin]

left click claims it

if your machine or mass of machines goes over 1 chunk, when it could all fit within 1, you're just wasting space.

I see people building multi-block machines across the line on two chunks, and its just sad to me.

it also helps, if the machine is on one chunk when troubleshooting cause if the server is chugging, I can just turn off that chunk to see if its the problem or not.

• I did enable pastebin/wget access for computercraft

so if u guys want to use premade scripts online, u can do so with the computercraft mod

[mild sorrel]

The gravestone mod is nice since you dont really “lose” items per-say, but i see why keep-inv is nice too

I dont care either way. Im used to the cycle of death in MC lol

[mild sorrel]

1 more day peeps, then the gates of hell/Minecraft open

kind of excited, sadly overburdened with homework this week

[graceful flare]

yeah im working evening runs tomorrow and working a few hours on Saturday

[late robin]

Working on expanding the nether rn

I'm probably gonna finish up tomorrow around noon.

I know I missed a few recipes we like to have from previous games we've done. But I'm going to leave it to you guys to ask for it if u feel it would help QoL

The modpack kubejs file is massive and hard to track what was something they intended vs oversight

[graceful flare]

We'll keep any eye out

perhaps the ATM star needs some modifications 😂 compressed nether stars sounds diabolical

[mild sorrel]

Hostile Neural Networks makes it automatically farm Wither and then there are nether star seeds in Mys.Argriculture, so ways to farm it

just needs a lot of energy to make it fast

[graceful flare]

gotcha, i was thinking of the network, but i forgotten that Mystical Agriculture had them too

[mild sorrel]

i dont really think there is any recipe adjustments we need unless there is something really weird or needed

i think Mystical Argiculture should have them

[late robin]

yeah, was more along the line of, rotten flesh -> leather, or other garbag items being useful in someway

[mild sorrel]

Release day, woo lol

[graceful flare]

Is the server up yet or should we wait until evening?

[graceful flare]

@late robin

[late robin]

@mild sorrel @graceful flare @flat thunder @upbeat jetty

ATM 10 Server is good 2 go. enjoy

[late robin]

got my starter base going

[mild sorrel]

hopefully will have time to play later

[late robin]

Alright I got the following to start out as early rush,

- 4x Iron Farm blocks --> generates 4-6 iron ingots a minute and costs nothing to run.
- 1x coal generator for power,
- 1x mekanism heat generator for trickle power
- 1x mekanism basic energy cube,  as a starter capacitor.
- 1x primative alloy smelter (ender-io) for getting early steel ingots.
- 1x mekanism basic fluid tank for lava.
- 1x Obsidian Iron Furnace for fast smelting+coal efficiency
- 1x kitchen sink for infinte water source in 1x1x1.
- 1x Atomic Reconstructor, for converting rotten flesh into leather.

Hardest part so far is I didnt want to make an elaborate tunnel, so I focused killing endermen in the end for ender pearls to make elevators to allow me quicker access to bedrock for infinity dust.

for the iron farms to work, u need to kidnap a villager per farm block

but rightnow, I got a sustainable iron ingot generator and lots of leather to make backpacks armor and otherwise.

[vital flame]

This open to the public as well? I'm an old member. Like gotta dig into the old milpacs archive to find me old

[late robin]

its a public server, the whitelist is on, but to keep out bots.
in order to be whitelisted, you need to join the server -- get kicked, then try joining again, it adds you to the whitelist on the first try.
info is in this threads pins, -- ATM 10 modpack.

[vital flame]

Sweet. I've got another server I play on with my family but they've got a lot of block restrictions

You guys working together or all separately?

[late robin]

I think we decided to help each out by providing materials that others lack while in progression. since most of us have are varied in either "I wanna speed run this shit" and "I want to take my time and make something pretty" unless u use the team system ingame, your quest/tech progression will be your own.

theres a bunch of forks in the paths where its easy to specialize, and since u need a little of every single mod in the pack to produce the "end game" you have to either do all the mods or have someone supply you with what u didnt do.

Its a quest progression pack, so make sure to check the quest tab when u play if ur unfamilar with ATM modpack progression.

[vital flame]

Nice. I've been playing ATM packs since 7 so I'm relatively familiar. I'm playing 10 on the other server already. I tend to focus on tech and resource generation (bees specifically)

[late robin]

unless it was restricted by devs, there isn't anything removed on this server. all the typical dimensions have been pre-generated up to at least 3000 block radius, and I dont mind you guys cheesing the system if u find exploits, just dont go nuts and try to crash the server with something overly outrageous.

there is a online webmap https://map.sw386.us/
if u want to look around first

overworld is called "Sweetwaters world" on there, Saltwater i think is the deep dark or something... i forget.

[vital flame]

Good to know. Some of the restrictions make sense. Limited storage busses. No weapons, armor, or other NBT items in digital storage. Gimping mystical ag. Things that keep you from corrupting your chunk or lagging the server. However they also disable the fun things like the draconic evolution reactor

[mild sorrel]

havent been able to jump on the server yet, homework and husband duties sucking away my fun time

[vital flame]

I'm gonna be right in that same boat. Full time job, wife, toddler, and another due any day. Gonna have a week or so off once the little one is here tho so gonna put some hours in

[late robin]

yep, which is why I'll keep it running till new years at the earliest.

then go by activity past then

[graceful flare]

If you wouldn't mind Sweetwater. My bf would like to join the server. He would mainly just be on to help me out with building, since I am mid at it. His username is Seris1013 I think

[late robin]

server automatically adds to whitelist on first try, it kicks u on first try, but u can join on second attempt.

[late robin]

its it time simba

[mild sorrel]

Tried to join from my laptop but it froze up. Might try bumping the ram once more

[wary spire]

finally getting around to joining the new server

[mild sorrel]

i am planning to hop on tonight hopefully. Still havent officially joined 🙁

[late robin]

work suxs

[mild sorrel]

https://tenor.com/view/blink182-work-sucks-all-the-small-things-gif-4891814

[vital flame]

It still on 4.10 or did you guys update it?

[mild sorrel]

staying 4.10

[mild sorrel]

Made the frame of my house, dug a basement to use for storage. Made an atomic reconstructor (which was a waste of time) and started my mining tunnel

Not bad for about 2 hours haha. Questline and mods are much different than i remember, like Silent Gear mod got a huge upgrade to make a foundry now instead of just converting tools and etc

[late robin]

@graceful flare I never got back with you on the enchantments, did that config change fix it, or were u still having difficulty with apothiosis?

[graceful flare]

So the enchantments are ok i believe. But it's the anvil when combining or adding enchants that are ridiculously high in value. And yet in my single player world. Those same combinations cost maybe 5 - 15 enchant levels. Im talking about a sword with like 6 enchantments and you combine it with another sword to get 8 enchants total on your new sword from anvil combining

[late robin]

vanilla anvil?
@graceful flare

trying to figure which mod is in charge of it

[graceful flare]

correct

like assume you need 57 lvls of XP for the enchant, but instead it was telling me like 5 - 15 in my singleplayer

[mild sorrel]

Made 3 iron farms, got a village breeder chain going, did some mining and exploring but not much progress otherwise i feel like

made 2x iron generators and iron furnaces (converted to Factory) so another step haha, not sure which mod to focus on

[late robin]

I litterally didnt touch anything with enchantments from the default server files, so im floored why its different

i'll load up a singleplayer game to generate the configs and run diff on them to see where its at

[graceful flare]

You'll get up to our status soon enough. Its really the key common/ hard to get minerals and mob drops that will really allow you to progress quicker at,this stage

[mild sorrel]

I just need a chest piece to progress my world tier lol. I forgot to make one tonight

[late robin]

that and the ultimine, makes early mining a breeze

[graceful flare]

Just run a dry test run on it as a control maybe. Im also confused on it. I'll look again tomorrow to triple confirm what I am saying

[mild sorrel]

I hate that osmium requires a diamond pick in this pack

I sorta get it. Just annoying that its new this time

[late robin]

I keep hearing that bees are OP for ATM10

[graceful flare]

What mod is that. With the world tiers?

[mild sorrel]

World haven(?) or something haven

[mild sorrel]

I tried bees in the last modpack with another group. Took some time for me to get the basics of it

[graceful flare]

Oh god. I can stand bees in forestry since automating was a bitch in tekkit 2 from my account.

[late robin]

sounds like a magic mod

i disdain magic

[mild sorrel]

Oh wait

[graceful flare]

Ok

[mild sorrel]

I think its under Apotheosis

[graceful flare]

Hmm something to look into tomorrow.

[mild sorrel]

World tiers. It should spawn random mini bosses and increases rarity drops

[graceful flare]

Im maining mystical agriculture for my resource needs.

[mild sorrel]

I should build a better base maybe lol

[graceful flare]

Yeah once you have yourself adequate liebensraum then you'll be peachy with progression.

I think I'll have to expand at some point. But for now, im standing tall.

Speaking of you'll have to see my base sometime. And Sweet you'll have to see the improvements made.

[late robin]

restarting the server rn

when u get back on, check again for me

no rush, i wont be able to touch it till after work tomorrow

i spent too much time getting the turtle swarm to cut a 3x24 chunk area for the factory floor.

I got 3x ore processing, and working on 5x

--
Also thrawn, if u got another account for your partner, I think it gives you extra land claims, if u need more space than default.

just need them to join your team

[mild sorrel]

Thrawn's base: nice island hopping, big base being built, nice place.
Sweetwater's base: giant canyon with machines and random island in the center, WIP
D'Amico's base: fucking square wooden frame

also idk if its just too many biomes or what, but this worldgen is so desert-y and i struggled to find a decent place to start building haha

[graceful flare]

i did actually have him join the team, but because he couldnt access my land otherwise

[graceful flare]

still it did give you a lot of room to work with though

[graceful flare]

fr, but at least there is large swaths of non desert land, plus if we need to excavate large swaths of the world, the desert makes the perfect candidate for such efforts

my biggest issue is, we are going to have a fuck of a time finding an Ancient city, because even in base minecraft. It is a momumental and mostly lucky effort to find one.

unless there is some sort of device that can point the way to one that I am unaware of

[mild sorrel]

there is some tools to help find one, there is something massive underground under my base per my minimap, idk what it is

but going to gear up and make the journey

[graceful flare]

i think its a labyrinth of some kind maybe like a advanced dungeon for basic MC mobs

unless there is something even deeper?

[mild sorrel]

not the one directly under my base that you saw, something in deepslate level

Natures Compass is the cheapest tool to try and find an ancient city, not 100% accurate but find deep dark to try pointing in the direct

otherwise, idk if its in ATM10, Ars Nouv has a tablet you can configure to find an ancient city i think

[graceful flare]

yeah i did do that in my singleplayer, and let me tell you that even in creative it took me hours and at some point i just used commands to find one. because it was finding tiny patches of deep dark but with nothing more to find

[graceful flare]

something to look into perhaps. I think the ancient city though should be a combined arms effort in finding and utilizing its loot

because its hard enough on our own. The biggest thing is who can gather the Allthemodium ore and process it best and use it first for the dimension to go mine for it

[graceful flare]

is it a race to 5x processing?

[late robin]

Bruh u went from Sahara to the Gobi, any other direction would be snow or mixed swamp

Did no one look at blue map?

[mild sorrel]

i like my little retreat now, i got plenty of ideas

i forgot the coords i wrote down after i found my new spot. i kind of like my current spot better

[late robin]

https://map.sw386.us/#sutek:0:0:0:1500:0:0:0:0:perspective

If u claimed land it shows on there

As well as others

[mild sorrel]

this was before the wipe, i was pre-planning but i did see the claims which was cool

i use the map plenty when trying to find some things

[late robin]

Yeah the wipe was only player data

[mild sorrel]

oh well, im happy with where i am

going to try setting up the streaming stuff to try gaming from my laptop, did not fare well when just running ATM10 on it lol

[late robin]

Map is 15,000 x 15,000 blocks

[mild sorrel]

its silly because i didnt want to stray too far away from others... but there is /tpa and waystones so i guess it really doesnt matter

[late robin]

Yeah and /warp

[mild sorrel]

i like to imagine we are closer lol

[late robin]

For the end, nether and twilight

And the player market

Which someone would sell some sand to me

[mild sorrel]

i can sell sand, did you mention other methods of making $$ on the server?

[late robin]

Yeah, every hour it gives out money, I've yet to ensure that works

[mild sorrel]

idk if a notification shows in chat about it or not, least i didnt see anything

[graceful flare]

Um yeah I can confirm the every hour you get money scheme does not work.

Also yeah we all setup fairly far from one another. But we have half a dozen ways to reach one another physically and by wireless or teleportation methods.

But at least local and regional resources aren't an issue however

[late robin]

It's not setup yet

I messed up on it and it was subtracting

So I've yet to work on it

[graceful flare]

thats alright, Ill wait for my back pay btw 😂 jk

[graceful flare]

@late robin @mild sorrel what mod allows for the Hoe to plant seeds immediately after you make farm land?

because I think we should try and disable that mod or the feature of the hoe planting seeds. because it deletes seeds when it sows

[late robin]

no idea, just added the $ script

[graceful flare]

i saw that, up to 15 now

[late robin]

might be utilitarian mod

#Hoe Planting

> Plant seeds as you hoe the ground in the same action. Any seeds in your offhand or on your hotbar will be planted as soon as you till the soil.

[graceful flare]

That looks like it. Yeah they dont mention that even highly prized and expensive seeds can be lost when planting like that.

Any way to disable it? Or are we gonna leave it alone for now.

Also I found and looted an ancient city. Which puts our overall efforts further ahead.

Next time. I think i am gonna work on allthemodium ore and vibranium ore

[late robin]

#Enable Hoe planting module
hoePlantingEnabled = false

Ok, I disabled it for server side settings, restarting server.
no idea if there is a client side config or not.

some of the QoL mods only work on clients and me changing settings on the server wont make a difference

so if it still exists, u might need to change it on your config file.

[graceful flare]

Ok I'll have to test it tomorrow

Worse case I have to change it client side. And even then not thr worst thingm

I can farm Nethrite now.

[late robin]

wow, ur mid early game so far.

[graceful flare]

Well i am crediting my play test of the modpack for allowing me to progress this quickly.

However, it will be machinery and automation of certain processes that will prove a real hurdle for me.

If yall want something farmed, I can of course farm it for you. For a price.

Actually thats a good point. Something like my mineral farms. Could be something for the shop eh?

[late robin]

https://tenor.com/view/tegridy-farms-sign-randy-marsh-south-park-tegridy-farms-put-up-a-sign-gif-19488221

[graceful flare]

No fr! Like I can pretty much farm anything. Just not all at once atm

[late robin]

I'm sure if u put something thats a pain to make/get in a shop, someone will buy it

whole reason I wanted shops available, is cause I want a way to trade magic stuff I hate doing.

for machine stuff

[mild sorrel]

my playtime on the server is like, 3 hours maybe haha. And i spent a good 1-2 hours just messing getting my base started

[mild sorrel]

Found an underground village at like y=-21 apparently, interesting place

[graceful flare]

very interesting find

[graceful flare]

i dont much understand Magics either

[mild sorrel]

Worked from home and got to play a bunch. Dont feel like i did a lot but i did haha

Upgraded my base some, got started in Powah and Mekanism. Got Tier 1 seeds from Mystical, going to work on Tier 2 soon. Got botany hoppers for my seeds

[graceful flare]

did Powah come from an older Nuclear Power mod? Because i almost swear there was something similar, just the ores are giving me a hint of an idea of what mod i am thinking of

[mild sorrel]

Dont remember. Lot of mods that are whole new mods or replacing older ones. Like this version of Silent Gear is basically replacing Tinkers Construct

[graceful flare]

That's exactly what i thought to myself too

[graceful flare]

Um so the Mobgrinders from the Mobgrinder utilities mod, they arent working. Are they disabled or something?

I was building a mob farm, but the grinders are for some reason not working, they worked fine in singleplayer

@late robin

[late robin]

I'm starting to think their server.zip has different configs from the client download, we keep running into (this works in SP)

also
Darshenaflame the Sticky was slain by Thrawn7th using [Panzerkampfwagen V]

[late robin]

the masher? gonna need more details on which machines ur using.

[graceful flare]

Yes the mob masher

[late robin]

[graceful flare]

https://tenor.com/view/shrek-gingerbread-man-gif-24729374

ok so it would appear i have been the one to progress the most so far. I will say when it comes to one material

I will just allow it to be given away simply because it is extremely difficult to obtain and locate

took me about 3-4 hours to find

Unobtainium smithing template

i will need to synthesise a few more for myself and armour, but after that its something ill be willing to hand out for no charge (despite our economy should be used) because let me tell you, the amount of evokers I just had to fight to get even 1 template, is nothing short of extraordinary. Getting to the other solar systems in the Extra Planets mod, is easier than what I just went through

[late robin]

lol

I'm close to getting it myself, just keep getting stalled by other games / real life.

[graceful flare]

huh? far as i can tell you have played like maybe 12 hrs total?

[graceful flare]

also I think I am reaching a point where i am going to need expert help lol

I have access to pretty much majority of materials needed for whatever projects come to mind, but how best to use those resources.... is another question all together lol

[mild sorrel]

Might pull an all nighter to play tonight, maybe bad idea if j got work in the morning haha

Only got a couple hours and barely got machines and power

[graceful flare]

ye, i might take a day break from the server, so that way I can come back in with a more refreshed and refurbished mind

[mild sorrel]

@late robin - Good news, got Moonlight and Sunshine working on my laptop and gaming PC. I need to figure out the resolution when RDP on my laptop since its blurry. Also need to configure WoL, for some reason its enabled on my PC BIOS but guess i need to install an app to send that magic packet

[late robin]

https://github.com/moonlight-stream/moonlight-docs/wiki/WOL-(Wake-On-LAN)

[mild sorrel]

So tried a WoL app but not sure why my PC wont wake. Not sure if network config issue with router or something else

[late robin]

its on moonlight

id check and see if maybe u need to reserve the ip for dhcp lease.

[mild sorrel]

Maybe. I think its set to automatic with default settings

I gotta double check

[late robin]

basic, on router if mac exists assign this ip XXX.XXX.XXX.XXX

[late robin]

or u can be me, and just not turn it off / suspend

I run server stuff on my gaming pc anyways.

[mild sorrel]

if i had more time to game i would maybe, hard to do homework and watch the baby lol

[flat thunder]

Yeah. That's what I do usually, just not turn off.

All though WoL could be working better on new rig.

[mild sorrel]

Maybe I am thinking of this the wrong way, do I need to assign a public IP for Static NAT on my router if its just going through my local network? Apparently my Verizon Fios router requires a public IP, maybe reserve the IP thru Verizon

[flat thunder]

So what exactly you're trying to do here?

It just can be that you're under a Carrier-Grade NAT. Try internet hosting tool tester first

[mild sorrel]

I got my gaming PC upstairs, thats connected via ethernet cable. My laptop is downstairs so if i just want to game but cant go upstairs, just trying to wake my PC up

im probably making it overcomplicated but just wanted to test it out lol

[late robin]

It's through the lan, so cg-nat and nat shouldn't be a concern here, do u not own the router for wifi/lan your connected to?

[mild sorrel]

its one of those standard routers the company gives you, idk if that really makes a difference

[late robin]

Ur the one trying for a cybersec degree right

[mild sorrel]

Yup lol

[graceful flare]

😂

Someone here is concerned and I cant tell who it is 😂

[mild sorrel]

Well to be fair, depends what sector of Cybersecurity im going to

[still pilot]

-concern-

[late robin]

https://tenor.com/view/smug-smug-mode-jeremy-clarkson-top-gear-clarkson-gif-2297505076468265763

[mild sorrel]

Played a bit on the server but lost track of what path i was taking... lol

think i need to buff up my gear and weapon before taking on ancient city

[late robin]

trying to figure how to powah reactor works, has slots for redstone, carbon and coolant. no idea where the uranite is added to it.

[graceful flare]

yeah that's what i did, but inbetween that, I built some basic power and ore processing setups as well as base room for later building

[graceful flare]

maybe as a rod that goes in and out? Also how much power gen do you acutally need? Ive found so far my green power setups from mekanism being more than sufficient for my purposes

[mild sorrel]

I think i just need to dig out a bunch more space for my base. Got started with Ars Nouv to do the ritual to find a structure. But i just have a basic osmium sword, so time to get into Silent Gears foundry

[graceful flare]

Fair game now! I know nothing about Ars Nouv

[dire spade]

Do we have a cav minecraft server?

If not i could make one

[mild sorrel]

Sweetwater is hosting a modpack (ATM10) server. Really just 3-5 of us playing but its open to others

[late robin]

if it is, the manual is kinda crap for not detailing it, might just go to big reactors...
what u mean by green power mekanism?

[mild sorrel]

Did you manage to figure it out? I forgot the GUI layout for Powah reactors, but pretty sure Uranite goes in the center or above redstone

[flat thunder]

https://www.twitch.tv/kurtjmac On a side note related to MC

14 years old Series of going to Far Lands is about to finish.

[graceful flare]

Renewable power. Windmills and solar panels. The upgraded solar panels are really nice. They make a sound that is just 👌

[graceful flare]

Im assuming you have or are going to Google what to do with that.

Im eyeing up Big reactors if I can obtain the Yellorium needed for it. Resources are no longer an issue. Since I have so much inferium

[mild sorrel]

Just found my ancient city, destroyed a vase and a Stalker spawned, thought I almost had him but he just literally sucked me close and insta killed me

[late robin]

that buzz?

nothx

[graceful flare]

That just means it's harnessing the power of the sun with vigor

[graceful flare]

I am using the jetpack from Mekanism. In the vector mode which takes a little getting used to. You can fly around like a Mandalorian and evade and combat the Ancient city with much higher survival rates than without

[mild sorrel]

I got an Irons jetpack. Super fast flight. But i wasnt expecting it to pwn me so badly. Now i know for next time

I normally try to stealth-fly around for chests and mine the shriekers

[graceful flare]

I know how they function as of like 10 yrs ago. But not how they do in this pack. How are they?

[graceful flare]

Yeah not much stealth with a jetting jet pack lol unless you land early enough to not be detected.

Also not the worst idea to have an efficiency silk touched hoe.

[mild sorrel]

Upgrading them is nice. Just takes a bunch of redstone i feel like. The flight is pretty fast horizontally. Vertically its like climbing a latter maybe

[graceful flare]

You'll want some of every type of sculk item

[mild sorrel]

I just wanted to get my waystone down in there first. I gotta work on a mass inventory system, then go back

[graceful flare]

As many as you can and im assuming you saved something so you can return at will? Never a bad idea to retreat when overwhelmed

[graceful flare]

Never heard of it. Im still lagging in computer storage

[mild sorrel]

Waystone, its like free teleport

I just have sophisticated chests still. Debating investing time and energy into Refined Storage or AE2

[graceful flare]

Oh no i know what those are. Most helpful they are

[graceful flare]

I think AE2 offers better long term production scale ideas. But im already sinking myself into it so might as well

[mild sorrel]

True. Might go that route

[graceful flare]

But i am not the mass automating type. Im such a noob with it and its more setup than results it feels like sometimes

[wise mirage]

already

?

the end of an era

the last classic minecraft youtuber does his goal

i saw him doing it way back in '13

[mild sorrel]

I vaguely recall following news about him. What was he trying to achieve now? Just walking to Far Lands?

[wise mirage]

basically

he started in the early minecraft days

picked at it off and on

walk to the farlands and raise money for charity along the way

he wasnt the first to do it, but he is the most prolific

[mild sorrel]

I was about to say, I know plenty others have done it but I know his name carried some weight with charity and etc

[dire spade]

Can u perchance have him send me the server ip

[mild sorrel]

All info is pinned to channel

The first time you join, it may look like you are kicked/disconnected but it adds you to the whitelist. Just reconnect after and you should be in

[dire spade]

Thanks bro

[mild sorrel]

So i believe the people on the server is just Sweetwater, Thrawn (+1), White, Rozhkov, and myself?

curious to see how many actually play

[scarlet night]

Been meaning to get back into MC

I'll try to get on some time but I'm EU so you might not see me around when you guys are on

[graceful flare]

I've been wondering where yall are at. I've been on and making progress. Slowly

Finally dabbling into computerised storage

[mild sorrel]

Been busy with school and work

Might hop on a bit tonight

[late robin]

being crushed by corporate monolith of draconic life balance policy

I hop on around 3am on a weekend.

[mild sorrel]

playing right now, made 2 basic solar panels with Powah for passive energy, going to upgrade energy storage but working towards AE2 storage now

[mild sorrel]

Hows everyones progress coming along

[random ridge]

whats the cav server IP?

[mild sorrel]

Pinned in channel messages

[late robin]

I did say that its gonna be up till at least new years, I predicted long times of inactivity due to horrible work schedules over the holidays.

[mild sorrel]

My work load during holiday usually drops or stretches since most users will be on vacation and etc. Plus semester should be over with starting December

[graceful flare]

yeah my bf is having a rough time with college too, especially since he is working a regular job on top of that

also this computerized storage, barebones as it is a setup my god! It has made life so easy now, no more rummaging through chests or running back n forth for items

i dunno how to get really advanced with the computers from AE2 but I think even just for storage and crafting it works pretty well in qol base improvements

[mild sorrel]

once you craft a few 4k drives (even 1ks work for small items) you can store a bunch of stuff, which i like AE2 for storing all the random junk and not bulky items

for bulk storage, i use Drawers since they are extremely cheap and scale easily to increase the amount you can store in them. Like woods, stones, etc that easily get to be over 2k

[graceful flare]

eh im using it for bulk too, but the odd junk items certain things arent going into the computer, I have them in netherite chests. because they are just a waste of precious computer space

[mild sorrel]

I do store certain items, like those with durability or unique tags, into chests so i can easily find them but not waste space. Gems, tools/weps, armor, accessories

i think stuff like saddles which are non-stackable, don't take up item count space in disk storage

[graceful flare]

You're correct. I think they take up the one slot but stack in the machine

Otherwise there would be some qol frustrations i think.

Also I am doing that as well with my tools and irregular items. Along with the stranger magical items or book/ scrolls.

[mild sorrel]

Working on Apotheosis enchanting, got myself like 12 Hellshelves and Library of Alexandria to store enchantments

got my mob farm running so time to stack exp and spam enchantment books lol

[graceful flare]

How did you get a mob farm working? I couldn't get spawners to work.

Actually no i lie. I couldn't get the mob utilities grinders working.

Also I am just now realizing how much more work I have ahead of myself for getting the star.

Like every single major mod in this is a player into the star. Im trynna figure out what I can and cant automate, but also how do I prevent myself from producing too much of something too.

[mild sorrel]

I got like, no automation or progress in this modpack lmao. I got into the Mining dimension but have not put a single quarry down

I used a simple mob farm, using cursed earth surrounded by tinted glass(?) from Mob Utils, with 2 fans blowing into a corner that contains a mob crusher(?), the big spiny grinder thing. Use an ender vaccum to suck up items and exp, dump into chest and storage tank

[graceful flare]

yeah the big spinny grinder thing, for some reason did not function when i was placing it down

[mild sorrel]

did you activate it with redstone/lever?

[graceful flare]

it requires redstone? in my singleplayer it did not require it

[mild sorrel]

uhm, far as i know it requires it

maybe in MP it does to reduce lag

[graceful flare]

interesting, ill have to try it with redstone then

[late robin]

make sure to utilize AE2 auto-crafting, its powerful and looks like it plugs into most mods

pro-tip, automate the AE2 components first, that way u can expand the system as needed without the tedium

[mild sorrel]

Never got into autocrafting so gotta figure that out. I know you need like cpu block, autocrafter, and a pattern maker

[late robin]

if it requires a specific machine, lets say alloy smelter, u make a pattern for the input ingrediant for each input bus u attached to the side of the block, and make a pattern for the export bus for t he end result if all 3 are input..

or sometimes it best to not do so, and just set the machine to redstone activation, and have its own resource loop outside the AE2 system, only exporting the end result item with a pattern on a redstone trigger.

[graceful flare]

If you'd like i could give you one of the stopping block crafting mats for making a digital miner!

[graceful flare]

I think if I can get a walk through of a setup example I could certainly learn that better than from a tutorial. However. I think the tutorials are gonna be what save me.

For me AE2s auto crafting is the most intimidating part of the mod itself.

[mild sorrel]

I havent really had time to play too much to really progress at times. I just get sidetracked easily, like making AE2 storage system and dabbling in other mods lol

Maybe today or tomorrow ill try playing

[graceful flare]

Lmk if you need mats for AE2 in particular the crystals

I have seeds for em but a boat load of essence too

[late robin]

i'll be on tomorrow, have a bit of time to myself somehow....
crap, shouldn't have said it aloud.

[graceful flare]

dont say it too loud perhaps?

[mild sorrel]

got my ATM pick, so no more need for mending enchant, going to really expand out my base now to put AE2 on 1 floor, then machinery below that and make some auto-crafting and whatnot

[mild sorrel]

I do need to work on reforging some armor, like diamond armor to give some decent buffs

[graceful flare]

I've been watching JaviHerobrine tutorials for some things from mekanism and now AE2. The way he explains and goes step by step, is by far the best thing I could have come across.

I feel like most of the time a tutorial is just a bunch of nonsense shoved into the middle of it or taking too long to come to the point of the tutorial. He gets on that tutorials dick right away and starts going hard! 😂 if you'll pardon the word play.

[mild sorrel]

Its nice when some people do a good job starting from scratch of a mod and progress through it (if it has progression), otherwise im watching a video of random mod mumbo-jumbo

[graceful flare]

question, any idea what blocks that are in the pack that could be explosion resistant?

for scale, something to at least tame the explosive power of a potential nuclear fission reactor failing

radiation is not preventable of course

[mild sorrel]

Welp, spent some time trying to get AE2 autocrafting (got basic components) but didnt actually make patterns yet, forget how inscriber autocraft works so ill have to research that

got my Builder quarry running in the Mining dim now, so free ores and whatnot

[graceful flare]

Builder quarry? I tried looking for that and got lost so I have a digital miner now

But also with me synthesising multiple things from the mystical agri. Its easier for mass crafting of ingots

Idk where Im going next in my projects. Too many to count. But I think nuclear fission and steam power are my next big project.

[mild sorrel]

Its the RFTools Builder. Then you use a quarry card with filter to mine ores. Ive used it in atm9 since it can be pretty powerful/quick

I should work on my Mystical Agr at some point, make a room dedicated to just farming all the seeds available. Or at least the worthwhile ones

[graceful flare]

Yeah because I think you can make all the basic and advanced materials

[mild sorrel]

I had all of the Tier 1 seeds and placed them in Botany hopper pots, i just didnt have space to place more. But now that im expanding my base finally

[graceful flare]

I've been using garden cloches for my seeds, but maybe i should swap since I think the botany pots dont use power, but wouldnt they be slower? since they aren't growing at an accelerated rate?

[mild sorrel]

Idk about grow speeds, but botany pots require no power. You can use the essence farmland blocks for faster speeds; higher tier = faster

i just set them and forget them, then store in an upgraded barrel so just set-n-forget

[graceful flare]

gotcha, amazingly the grid of cloche's im running barely take tons of power and needs a water supply but I might keep it as such, since tbh i find it kinda fun to invest the time to setup and seeing such a splendid array of gardens working hard

I will say, you are doing it the better way. Which is cheaper and probably better lasting

I should setup barrels but ive been too lazy to do so, i got those boys in chests still. Was gonna setup like a ME chest system to store them in droves, but idk if that is the right move either.

Would i be able to visit your base with you offline? So i can just look at yer Autocrafting setup for AE2?

[mild sorrel]

I would say drawers, use like 2x1 and then upgrades to store more but sophisticated barrels can do just about the same with an actual UI. Just cheaper the way I started out

You should be able to, I got a ladder opening on my roof and you can go down to take a look. I just got a random mess of stuff going around right now lol

I dont really got autocrafting set up yet, just 2 pattern providers, 2 assemblers, then 1 crafting block with 2 CPUs

[graceful flare]

oh ok, i should just commit and setup one in a creative world just to get an idea of what i need for it

but more tutorials too hehehe

actually now that I think of it, we haven't seen one another's bases in a while, would be nice to see the progression of the fellow players

[mild sorrel]

i need to do the same, make a creative world to mess with autocrafting. I know the basis of setting up the autocrafting blocks and CPU, just need to work on import/export stuff and whatnot

i need to put a roof on my home lol

[graceful flare]

yeah that is my builder's block rn, is the import export stuff. like I think i understand it, but at the same time. how the hell does it work with modded machinery

[mild sorrel]

Is there a handy guide/video or something to show how to autocraft processors? Trying to understand the logic of using storage, import/export buses and filtering. Trying to figure out how if I want 10 logic processors, I need 10 logic presses (when it should only need/use 1)

[mild sorrel]

Tried following this video but still kind of confused on the 'logic' or concept with buses. Not heavily knowledgable about AE2 like channels and subnets but got some learning done. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NXgvBsDqUSA

[mild sorrel]

Okay, I tried to replicate what he did in this video but somehow its still not crafting the processors. I dont understand wtf he is doing or why its not properly crafting the secondary ingredients for the whole processor

Nevermind, tweaked it myself and got it working now. Time to figure out how to automate the chargers and reaction chamber

[late robin]

you're just using storage bus to indicate which item it inserts

easier to design if you subnet / offload the logic into a basic I/O system and have the output go back into the AE2 system after its done.

instead of storage bus for each machine, just one on a container, and use mekanism pipe or something with filtering for each item needed in the process. so only need 1 storage bus for input and 1 for output

[mild sorrel]

I managed to find a method/setup that works for a compact processor subnet. I ended up not filtering in the storage buses like the guy did in his video, works just fine. For some reason, when i replicated it, nothing would go in or out

I could probably improve it but ehh... works for now

[late robin]

filtering on AE also adds a quantity measure

which is only good for making automated supply generation

such as, I always want 15,000 ingots of iron in inventory. if less. start the machines to process the ore.

[mild sorrel]

im just learning how to do all this so i aint there yet haha. But watching some vids to get better knowledge

and expanding my base to build more machines. Need better power gen

[late robin]

as for the autocrafting CPU's, its how many items it can handle in buffer.

so 1 crafting cpu = 18-32 items pending creation in buffer capacity.

if u make a request for like 192 items, its going to take 3-4 cycles to run through that cpu before it will finish.

[mild sorrel]

This is what i set up so far

[late robin]

the more cpu the more items u can create at once.

[mild sorrel]

4k crafting storage with 2 CPUs, then 2x 1k crafting storage with 2 CPUs each

[late robin]

so yeah, if ur autocrafting from something like copper+zinc+gold+wood+stone and their is 12 steps in the process to get to the final result.
Thats around 38,000 or 38k worth of cpu ticks for it to complete the crafting process

each cpu being 1k, 38 would be needed for it to make it within 1s

[graceful flare]

Or else with 1k cpu strength it would be 38 seconds to get that one item from the 12 crafting steps to the final product?

[mild sorrel]

Im basically not paying attention to the goal of making the ATM star lol, just slowly progressing at my own pace in increments

[graceful flare]

You kinda have to. There is so much you could do and must do in order to acquire the star its kinda mind boggling

[mild sorrel]

Plus learning all the different mods in the pack and getting used to them. Im not in any rush haha

[graceful flare]

exactly!

Also this is my fairly safe and reliable setup for my fission reactor, and steam turbine power production

[mild sorrel]

Looks pretty nice. I like how you built it away from your base lmao

[graceful flare]

I can run the reactor at full speed and quickly generate all the steam and radioactive waste I need for further processing

[graceful flare]

well i wanted to make sure if the reactor went boom, my main base wouldnt be irradiated for hours n hours IRL time

that would hinder me too much

i am working towards, a mekasuit from Mekanism

[mild sorrel]

Cant remember if the Mekanism reactors is a huge aftermath or not if it exploded

[graceful flare]

um the explosion is mid, but for a large scale one it would be devastating

even the small one I have would tear a good chunk out of the building i made for this

but its the radiation that would be a major issue

5x5 chunks worth of irradiated air

if it went kaboom

[graceful flare]

Welp it was only a matter of time, I have had my first Radioactive leak, from breaking a barrel no less. Thankfully it was a small amount that has poisoned the air for around an 1 n half IRL being mostly lethal for the time being.

[mild sorrel]

How come my jetpack doesnt recharge in other dimensions outside the Overworld, unless i turn it on and off?

Also fun fact, the Dova Bee in The Other dimension... basically insta-death and insta-broke all my rare reforged armor...

[graceful flare]

oh? Interesting, I have unobtainium armour which is unbreakable so that is probably why I didn't face that issue

Also yes, that bee is a cheating bastard!

[mild sorrel]

I gotta work on upgrading my armor sadly, been lacking in the 'combat' department

[graceful flare]

I tested to see what it would do to me and found out with my jaw dropped in shock

[graceful flare]

yeah its a constant uphill until unobtainium, but even then, you aren't entirely invincible the stupid Dungeon bosses from i cant remember which mod, still one shot me so 🤷‍♂️

[graceful flare]

I am finally beginning the journey to understanding AE2's autocrafting.

Its a miracle I am actually starting to figure it out finally, @mild sorrel I have discovered that if you're crafting setup is missing a part of the process, whether that be an incorrect setup or perhaps the crafting cell itself is in the wrong place or perhaps the machine doesnt have what it needs (inscriber press plate) You would have to cancel the order and start again once you correct your current issue that is holding up the system. In other words, trial and error at first if its having hickups with making an item.

[mild sorrel]

Trial and error was my biggest thing, especially having to cancel any previous crafting requests

[graceful flare]

yeah i didnt realize I had to do that at first, I just figured that out... Thanks google

[mild sorrel]

Quite the learning curve outside the simple "assember + pattern provider" to make assemble items together. When it starts to involve other machines, then it becomes tricky

[graceful flare]

also Im hating this stupid flat world I have to test it out, because it wont stop going to night, also the rain is somehow persistent in a world that is just several layers of dirt n bedrock 🫠

[graceful flare]

I have discovered that the advanced pattern provider is essential to more advanced machines like mekanism

but automating that, will be quite the task

also I have to drastically upgrade my storage system I think, but problem is I have some 4k's holding like 12k worth of some items 😬

[mild sorrel]

automation processor crafting is a huge heal, i can easily craft high storage disks at this point

but i use drawers for my bulk storage, along with 1-2 sophisticated chests for other stuff

[graceful flare]

yeah im debating what it use for my essence farm.

[mild sorrel]

I would like to autocraft my essence, so i dont have to manually convert it. There should be an autocrafting setup, just need to find one

[graceful flare]

that would be a good first project after the initial automation of AE2 items I think

[mild sorrel]

it can be done outside the AE2 system/network, so i dont have to monitor it or feed input to craft, just does it automatically like an auto-crafting table. Just simple I/O from 1 storage or another or whatnot

[late robin]

Yeah, much easier if u can just have it supply resources and use xnet or other mods to do the process, especially when u need clocks or sequence signals to add or change things based on variance or intermittent material availability.

[mild sorrel]

Got myself some vibranium ore, just need the templates to upgrade. Reforged some of my gear at least but got 2 mythic weps i think. I just need to find a a way to get a lot of exp quickly... lol

killing Ender Dragon but need Ghast Tears to do it 🙁

[graceful flare]

i can get you some if you'd like, I dont remember if they are hard to find or not though

actually no they arent too bad, Find a Bastion and raid the suspicious soul sand with a brush

However!!!! I will say getting unobtainium isnt the hard part, The smithing template for it however... is monumentally difficult. There is a dungeon in The Other Dimension you have to find, but just look it up and see how interesting it gets even with the most advanced obtainable armour at this juncture in the playthrough. You will understand why I will be more than willing to make copies of it and give it away

[mild sorrel]

The quest details where to find the templates but I remember the unobtainium template being a PITA to find. I managed to find it in a ATM9 playthrough but yea... i am surprised jetpacks work in The Other dimension? thought it wasnt allowed

Have you also reforged any of your weps/tools/armor?

[graceful flare]

no, ive only been upgrading my armour through enchantments overtime and with the next tier of metal to obtain. Right now, I have unobtainium everything save for my paxel. But i was eyeing up for a Mekasuit from Mekanism, but alas I need a grand scale production for that to happen faster than days IRL worth of effort with the current setup and even this setup would drain my power to nothing real quick

[mild sorrel]

You can do reforging + enchantments on gear, so you get like double the stats

which helps for things like, reduced damage, giving brief effects to you when hit, etc

[graceful flare]

hmm, I haven't really had a need for it yet. I wasn't too sure the work put in would be worth the effort. Ive been focusing on one major project at a time. I feel like this Silent Gear mod would take my attention away from setting up my farm rn, but It might be worth looking into

[mild sorrel]

Its not Silent Gear, but that itself has drasically changed since ATM9 and early ATM10 days. This is just taking gems from loot, making them into dust for a Salvaging table to breakdown all those reforged gears and items

[graceful flare]

unless you'd be willing to work on it for me, I don't understand all that I need tbh Plus Im afraid of just dumping my current armour out for a whole new set

[mild sorrel]

If i got time later I could talk/show you through

[graceful flare]

thats why I tried to track for a mekasuit

ok

assuming either of us are on!

it is the 31st after all 😉

[mild sorrel]

its fairly easy if you kill those 'mini-boss' spawns in the world that get announced and that gong ring lol

[graceful flare]

oh god that mod!

yes I do have a fair amount of those resources I think somewhere in my computer. So hopefull that isnt a problem, once we get started. Plus I am more than willing to give away stuff too, (whoops to the economy idea for the server! Lol)

[graceful flare]

some of them are still potent enough to kill me horribly

[mild sorrel]

i think gems take up 1 space, so they cant/dont stack like saddles or whatnot

[graceful flare]

but yeah I think that would be fun to collab on something or at least chat about it. Maybe in VC since we'd be the first on the server to do so. Plus I really wanna show my base off, and maybe if there is X or Y get some feedback on what could be improved.

oh gotcha, maybe upgrades to hold more?

[mild sorrel]

Maybe, i think its because you can have grays, greens, blues, purple gems of the same stats but they are different itemIDs or tags

so when you have like 25+ gems, they arent the same

[graceful flare]

Oh so you can stack? Just not the same items? Like you could stack stats?

[mild sorrel]

Cant stack gems, far as I know. In the AE2 storage, i have no clue either

you could stack like-gems, so 2 green cuts with the same stats but there are so many, hard to tell

[graceful flare]

Ahh yes... When I next log in I should have a majority of basic and advanced resources!

[graceful flare]

gotcha, well in the mean time its not hard to find a dungeon and loot it for the "rarer" items of armour or tools now. Since we are in the late age for that mod

[mild sorrel]

Barely had time to sit down and game this weekend, possibly tonight I can hop on to show you a bit

[graceful flare]

Ok

[mild sorrel]

You know how much power consumption this takes? Forget how much RF/tick each cloche consumes

might make a floor dedicated to all the Mystical Agr. seeds just to hold onto them for whatever lol. I basically just need to craft all the seeds

[graceful flare]

Um no i dont have exact figured but a few windmills and like 5 or 6 solar gens are sufficient for this farm

[mild sorrel]

Also recent interesting update from Minecraft: https://www.minecraft.net/en-us/article/removing-obfuscation-in-java-edition

[graceful flare]

Yeah I wonder if they will like this.

I can well imaginec they would. Since it'll make modding, in theory easier to do

[graceful flare]

How's it coming boys?

Im expecting to log back in and have certain, resource deficiencies solved

[olive estuary]

So I have decided to try and dabble with minecraft as I never really got into it, but my idea is to have a solar panel farm! 😁

[mild sorrel]

Ooh have you joined the server? Its quite a lot to learn if you never played but we can definitely help out

[olive estuary]

Yup I joined the server!

[mild sorrel]

Awesome. This modpack is very overwhelming if you never really played Minecraft. But just ask questions in here if you need to

[late robin]

an fyi.
If you believe the server (sw386) to be slow or chugging, you guys can have it restart by typing !restart in game chat.

I think in January I'll be closing the Minecraft server down and replacing it with a stationeers instance due to a lot of updates I've been interested in,
last stationeers server we hosted went well for about a month, before we miscalculated the smelter pressure and ended up exploding half the base and all our oxygen.
https://store.steampowered.com/app/544550/Stationeers/

And whenever the next Project Zomboid update (B25 or whatever) happens, probably that too.

[graceful flare]

Im gonna be honest. Completely your decision to do whatever with the server. But progress with everyone, including myself is slow and time consuming. That said there would be a lot of progress lost if we closed it too soon.

Idek how I am going to make the star yet, and not to insult anyone here. I am the most far forward in progress to the star. But my limited knowledge with certain mods has slowed me down. And acquiring various bits just to make one part of the star has been slow going. Im still working at it.

Its just there is so much in this gorgeous pack I know for a fact, those who are playing will be at least a few months more possibly.

[mild sorrel]

I would be playing more if i wasnt bogged down with my college semester and dad life. Ive been having fun but obviously im a bit more slow paced. Course its Sweetwaters server and thought maybe more people would be playing, but i think its mainly just Thrawn and me

Im fine with whatever, i just cant play often, especially on my laptop so that hinders me lol

[neat verge]

I am on and have been playing but way far behind everyone else.

I do have stationeers tho only very little

[late robin]

Janurary is 2 months away technically

We've been at it since 19th of September, so roughly about the same time left as when we started

furthermore, I can just partition it off to another server if u guys are still playing on it

[graceful flare]

Ok. Also haven't seen you on it much. Did you find yourself overwhelmed?

[late robin]

yeah, with real life work

[graceful flare]

oof, what do you do for work. Isn't it something like big shot IT?

[late robin]

I make sure people get their email

Its mostlly standards and legal holds. like compliance with ITAR or dealing with requirements by USSC/USDoJ/DISA

If you get subpoena, I'm the guy that makes sure the 5+ years of emails u sent and recieved is stored and available for investigation.

[mild sorrel]

Sweetwater has a sweet job haha

My group at work supports and works on our Exchange servers for an air-gap network. Then our unclassified network

[graceful flare]

eh that is quite the job, i can imagine it pays decently. given how its your ass if something went missing

[late robin]

lmk if u guys experience any difference in performance, rn the server has been moved to another location, but the address/connection is the same. so for your purpose nothing has changed, and u dont need to do anything different.

just checking if I can migrate things to different regions without it being noticable.

if this works, I wont need to think about closing the minecraft server.

[graceful flare]

I'll let you know

[graceful flare]

@late robin i have not noticed any issues. In fact I think its running a bit smoother today.

Yesterday I had a few moments where I thought a restart would be handy. But im assuming overnight you restarted it at some point

[late robin]

nope

but thats cool, its actually in France than germany, tho the proxy is germany.

[mild sorrel]

Interesting

[graceful flare]

goddamn, for being all the way over there it is running smooth as butter

[graceful flare]

https://tenor.com/view/richtofen-evil-laughter-callof-duty-black-ops3-gif-19778099

Finally! The Mekasuit is mine!

And i am finally beginning to understand (somewhat) the basics and intermediate auto crafting systems.

[mild sorrel]

think i hit a roadblock as to what i want to do or work on now 😒

drawing blanks when trying to focus on my next big thing

[graceful flare]

Well let's think. Power, resource gathering, and or personally gear improvements

Just to name a few

[mild sorrel]

Yeaaa. I think j just get overwhelmed. I should focus on power gen and AE2 a bjt

[graceful flare]

yeah focus small bits at a time, its what I ended up doing and it worked out well

[mild sorrel]

Maybe draw up plans and break it down. I think the biggest is finishing my house and making space for everything

Draft where i want to put things and etc

[graceful flare]

yeah after i got to a certain point with progress, I reassessed my situation. Living conditions, space for machinery or whatever, storage issues, and spaces for buildings. And yes I think at some point soon or when you feel ready, take some time to just build what you want or need. I tried to future proof myself a month n some ago with the building you were at yesterday, however I am finding I may need to yet again expand the base into more more more

I am thinking of maybe instead of tearing the roof off and going up with building height, I might actually do something really fun like Balloon/ Floating island type stuff for a major expansionary project

[mild sorrel]

That would be really cool and interesting

I think i enjoy building mostly, so that may be my struggle to design something cool while trying to plan for future mod space

[graceful flare]

if you'd like I could lend a hand or even maybe some ideas

i am not a pro builder in any shape or form, but thought the idea of another person giving input or creativeness would be helpful

Too often I see people make underground bases and call it good. Seems tacky and samey from many other previous playthroughs

[mild sorrel]

Might just do what you do, make some signs with projects/ideas haha

[olive estuary]

Please tell me the server is not survival 😂

[mild sorrel]

ATM10 survival?

[olive estuary]

I know some are like survival and when you try to build you get attacked by monsters.

[late robin]

We got 128 block radius anti-mob spawn torches

And u can buy them from admin shop

Or craft them

[mild sorrel]

Yes it is survival but there are plenty of things to keep you safe, like Sweetwater mentioned

If you need help, I can hop on now and get you started

[mild sorrel]

Welp, made some minor progress but some at least. Finished building my house, moved my Ars magic area, expanded out some downstairs to build mass barrels of hopper botany pots to farm all the MysArg seeds

just need to make more insanium to turn into farmland to grow faster, but otherwise some progress lol

[graceful flare]

I might be able to help with that. Are you doing 1 of a seed type? Or are you doing multiples?

[mild sorrel]

Just 1 of each seed type for now. I got 2x Inferium Seeds growing right now but could expand this if i wanted

might grind out the MysArg modpack line, give or take

Might work on Powah next or Mekanism, making some power gen and then start up HNN

[graceful flare]

Yeah I used up a few more of my Cloches to speed up production of Inferium for insanium essence

Hopefully I have plenty now to make some real progress with that goal. Im deciding still as to what to do next though.

[mild sorrel]

I got an iron barrel with gold stack upgrade and compression upgrade, so it turns them into inferium blocks to store more + easily convert more with Master Infusion crystal

[mild sorrel]

You using CurseForge to launch the game? Or a different launcher

[neat verge]

If first time just try agian

That's the white list setting

[mild sorrel]

That or if Mojang login services are acting up, just restart the modpack launcher and try again

[olive estuary]

I am logging through the xbox game pass

[mild sorrel]

Maybe try re-signing back into your Microsoft account and try joining again

[mild sorrel]

Upgraded my armor, sword, and pick to Vibanium. Looted The Other villages for bunch of stuff, got a whole lot of enchants stored up now, upgraded my power gen some

[graceful flare]

yeah the Other has so many enchanted books its crazy

the piglich house thingy I found has soo many

[mild sorrel]

No kidding. I have an apoth enchantment setup but it doesnt give me the standard enchants like i thought, so might have to make a separate vanilla one for that

Trying to decide what next to work on

[graceful flare]

haven't put the time in for apothic enchanting yet, but then again I dont believe I need it now

[mild sorrel]

It helps with some stuff, like more damage or looting/fortune. which seems like it doesnt matter more late game but ehh

Just added bonuses haha. Its tough when you have reforged gear that gives some insane stats too. I reached Pinnacle tier

[graceful flare]

the looting and fortune is definitely something I am relying on still if I need loot from mobs, or ores for processing

[mild sorrel]

Might work on progressing Mekanism for the first time. I was progressing in Powah today but gotta make blazing crystals

Plus trying to close out the early questlines like starter tips and whatnot

[olive estuary]

Still not sure what I am doing wrong or if I needed to be added but even on my phone it wont let me connect 😆

[late robin]

well there's ur problem

its a JAVA Edition modpack

not the Microsoft C+ version of minecraft that xbox / phone uses.

modpack -> https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/all-the-mods-10/files/6921534

[olive estuary]

Ok so I was able to get NeoForge up and running in mincraft with the 21.1.203 version. @late robin do I need to download the ATM10 mods you linked?

[mild sorrel]

If you download and install CurseForge, you can easily install mods and modpacks from this application. Then change settings in CurseForge to use the Game Pass (Open Curseforge > settings gear > Game Specific: Minecraft > Launcher Type: change from Classic to “Microsoft Store”)

that should work? Never played with Game Pass so not entirely sure how it works, never used NeoForge either

[olive estuary]

I have the mod but it is saying I still need it.

[neat verge]

Are you on the wrong very of mod pack?

Ver

[late robin]

Check the channel pin 📍

Version we are running and whitelist details are listed. At work rn, otherwise I'd just send u the exact details... But hard to with phone and bad wifi

[olive estuary]

Yay I was able to finally get it to work!

[mild sorrel]

Wooooo finally

[mild sorrel]

Killed 3 withers with Essence Weapon and Mystical Enlightenment 4 but no damn cognizant dust...

[graceful flare]

it took me a few attempts just at lvl 4/5 enchantment with Mystical Enlightenment

[mild sorrel]

Yeaa. I need to farm more wither skulls. Guess ill need to make and progress HNN

[graceful flare]

I have one going, I have to get it automatic at some point here

[mild sorrel]

Going to be off work all week but got a lot of schoolwork to do since semester is wrapping up, hoping to spend some time playing. Hit another mental roadblock with what i want to work on

ideally Mekanism and reactors, then autocrafting with AE2 or just progress the mod's questline

[graceful flare]

I think a powerful power source then autocrafting, as that'll make doing anything else that much easier to achieve

[mild sorrel]

I had been trying to focus on grinding out the MysArg questline, minus getting all the seeds. Usually it progresses quick when you make a couple seeds as they usually reward you with other seeds

i havent really been progressing to ATM star but i guess i should start considering that, or creative items

[graceful flare]

yeah i didnt realize it did that until too late into producing all the seeds

[graceful flare]

creative items wouldnt be as hard which is actually crazy to say

like a creative energy cube is doable just difficult

[mild sorrel]

i cant remember if i need to find the Ender Dragon anymore or not. I upgraded my jetpack to Diamond, so it has 5m FE stored and goes super fast now. I need to explore The End for unobtainium, get the upgrade template, and just finish out that set of armor and tools + sword

made myself a supremium axe with enchants on it, just need Awakened tier for MysArg now]

[neat verge]

Been searching for the atm metals in deep but unable to find any

[mild sorrel]

You trying to find like Allthemodium ore in Deepslate/Deep dark?

IIRC, the Allthemodium ore only spawns in deep dark or shulk areas, and it will appear next to open-air and emits a small glow

[neat verge]

Yup and I have searched all over

Even went thru portal

[mild sorrel]

What portal you go through?

[neat verge]

In the ancient city in deep dark

[mild sorrel]

You shouldnt need to go through the portal, honestly didnt know there was one or where it leads

ATM ore should be visible around the ancient city but if you need help, I can give a potion of ATMsight

[neat verge]

Have nvgogles

[neat verge]

@late robin unable to join server just disconnects

nm i am in

[late robin]

might have been the 23:59 UTC Restart

[mild sorrel]

Just realized im not even getting nether stars from killing the wither... i think my sword is bugged or something

or something else is going on, but ive killed like 20+ withers and no star or dust

idk what is wrong with this sword but now imma have to test it in a singleplayer world

[graceful flare]

Yeah test it out because I was getting them with my kills. However I did use unobtanium instead of mystical agri I think for weapons

[mild sorrel]

My vibanium sword drops nether stars on kills. Idk, weird af

[graceful flare]

But the mystical one doesnt?

[mild sorrel]

Nope

Supremium sword

[late robin]

only this?

only this -- doesnt allow for nether star/dust drops?

[graceful flare]

yeah i was busy last night and didnt see this, yeah the Supremium sword I think can get you that weird item from killing them with the special enchantment/ enhancement, but otherwise it forgoes getting a more stars, but its a means to an end

[mild sorrel]

Thats all i can tell so far

I have the right weapon and enchantment for the cognizant dust drop. But the wither drops nothing at all when i kill it with my Mystical Agr sword

[mild sorrel]

i am soooooo fucking dumb...

i realized why it was not working...

i forgot that Knowledge of the Ages enchantment converts all drops to exp

[olive estuary]

Is there a way to teleport to our home plot by plugging in the cordinates so we are not running around the map trying to find our home?

[mild sorrel]

You do do /set home and then do /home to teleport back. There is also waystones you can use to freely teleport between waystones

[olive estuary]

Thank you!

[neat verge]

You can also do /back to last position you die or /home from

[mild sorrel]

Managed to get full set of Unobtainium armor, sword, pickaxe. Reforged my armor with Mythic (orange) prefixes but thats just temporary. I hateeeeeee the dungeon in The Other... and the ancient pyramid

[mild sorrel]

that path is down (for now), just need to figure out about grinding out Mekanism or maybe Modern Indust

[graceful flare]

yeah that dungeon, was awful to do

died a few times to achieve the result and even then i had to try and cheese and corner myself in a room

[mild sorrel]

I only survived if i kept moving around, my armor and wep basically kept me alive and one-shot most mobs. But it literally just floods with evokers and i cant see shit with those vexes and fangs. Idk how anyone is expected to roam through there

[graceful flare]

yeah i did that too, just locked myself in one of those two story rooms and tried desperately to kill the evokers fast

[mild sorrel]

so Mekasuit comes after Unobtainium, maybe ill look to getting Quantum stuff (infinite armor and attack?)

i should probably set up an automated crafting system for my Mystical essence... just compacting it all from a botany hopper pot in a chest

but obviously going to need expanded power gen and power cables to get to Quantum

[late robin]

Ya'll got any good screenshots of the base?

been curious how its been going, feel like I'm staring at a snowglobe from the outside looking at this channel.

[mild sorrel]

I will try taking some tomorrow, mine hasnt really progressed much i feel like

[late robin]

gonna be doing some updates for the operating system on the box

just a fyi, incase there is issues

[graceful flare]

sounds good

[ashen lintel]

i would join a world if anyone's down to play modded on pc

[mild sorrel]

New Minecraft 2-week phase??? 🤔 🤔

@late robin is the ATM10 server still up actually? Lol

[late robin]

kinda

its suspended cause im moving stuff to a new box

[mild sorrel]

thats fine, i was curious since we kind of took break at the start of December

then we trailed off with potential of shutting server off or maybe new 2-week phase lol

[spring flare]

haha

[graceful flare]

I put a solid two months into it. I got frustrated with how dang grindy it was getting. Especially for the star. I couldn't imagine how much more work id need to do just to streamline for one item in it.

[ashen lintel]

It's so worth it tho when you get the star! 🥹😆

[graceful flare]

i know it man, it was getting to the point though where i was looking up everything for the next steps because of mods ive never used in my life! But also it was overwhelming me mentally, If we were a unified group i think i would have looked at it differently

But I am proud that I did do a lot that ive never done before, i got into end stage Mekanism and that was fun, my next project for that would have been automatiion of the nuclear reactor stuff from it.

[mild sorrel]

My struggle was getting constantly side-tracked by everything when I tried to focus or just being like "ehh, maybe ill do X or maybe Y today" then just going down a different path

plus being content at a certain point with some of the mods, like "do i really need a huge automated ore processor for minimal gain?" or "i dont really use a lot of energy yet so dont waste time making this or that reactor"

[ashen lintel]

yeah i get that, you really do need more than one person to work towards the stars! sorry to sound like i was brushing off the amount of work, time and energy it takes!

[ashen lintel]

this...there's so much to do in that game, you just wanna do everything! think we'd need to set up one goal a day, and work together to see it through. maybe that would take the work load off one person and make it more enjoyable?

[dire spade]

So what mods are being run here

[ashen lintel]

tried finding a list

[dire spade]

One sec I jist almost cut off my finger

[ashen lintel]

omg careful!

[dire spade]

Ok im back

[ashen lintel]

can we post links here?

[dire spade]

Yea

As long as its not malicious

[ashen lintel]

https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/all-the-mods-10

this is the modpack

[dire spade]

Oh I've played this

I usually use modrinth tho

[ashen lintel]

yea

[mild sorrel]

Sweetwater has an ATM10 server but it was just Sweets, Thrawn, and me. There were maybe 2-3 others as well sporadically

[dire spade]

Oh ill show up after my sp tonight

[mild sorrel]

But server is currently in a transition (box being moved)

[ashen lintel]

i'm open to whatever site too

[mild sorrel]

But if someone else stands up a server im down to join

[dire spade]

I have a raspberry pi i could run a McDonald's server of

[graceful flare]

i found myself doing that often in the beginning especially

[graceful flare]

no you weren't i think, but that is the point of this pack at least i think

Hey yall i got a radical proposal. Sevtech Ages? 😂

[ashen lintel]

i've been wanting to play this one for a long time!

[graceful flare]

its a really fun one, but can be absolutely painful too if RNG world gen doesnt work in your favour or if its a struggle at points

[ashen lintel]

i haven't yet, been wanting to find people to play it with!

[graceful flare]

it is absolutely a good pack for group play! end game gets really tough from what i remember but it ends with the modpack reaching to the stars

[mild sorrel]

Gregtech New Horizon?

[ashen lintel]

I watch Captainsparklez and X33N's playthroughs, and sevtech is one of my favs

[ashen lintel]

i've not seen this one, gonna look it up

[mild sorrel]

Let me give you a hint. It took a months for someone to speed run the modpack i think

[ashen lintel]

dang! months haha!

[mild sorrel]

Or sorry, maybe normal playthrough completely dedicated to completely the pack is be between 2000-5000 hours apparently

[ashen lintel]

i like the looks of this one!

how are we gonna settle on one? 😆

[dire spade]

Bro what

Why

HOW

full on game atp

[mild sorrel]

Its super grindy is all

[dire spade]

The only mods I rlly play on Minecraft is timeless and classic zero and all the create mods

[graceful flare]

i am not sure how much grind i wanna do again, if its like trynna get the star. id ask we look again

[mild sorrel]

Nobody wants to play GTNH unless they are really dedicated lol. I threw it out as a joke

[graceful flare]

oh i see

ive never played on those packs before tbh

[mild sorrel]

It can be fun when you first start but yeah, super grindy

[graceful flare]

maybe it isnt as bad if we worked together?

i would love to do something like that in this case

if we agreed on a pack first 😂

[mild sorrel]

😂

[late robin]

like asking my wife whats for diiner, wtf is this finding a modpack

[mild sorrel]

I mean if people really wanna play GTNH, i wont say no. Somehow we revived the MC chat so now we gotta decide, its the same routine haha

[graceful flare]

Sevtech ages is a good one. But the main issue. Is people can kinda progress pass their friends in a playthrough fast if it isn't paced or restricted much

[late robin]

https://tenor.com/view/so-pissed-im-work-mad-gif-23416426

what are the modpacks suggested?

other than GTNH

u fkin monster

[mild sorrel]

SevTech so far but imma make a list of modpacks for people to vote on

[late robin]

I aint doing no 4-6 year expedition

[graceful flare]

Thats it! I think its simple. We can play blightfall from Technic. The old one

[mild sorrel]

Not even if it involved real-time space exploration?

[late robin]

real-time? lol ok dude

ok we got

sevtach ages
blightfall

???

[graceful flare]

Blightfall was a joke. That pack is so old. I question if it would run at all

[late robin]

1.9 packs are the best dude

[mild sorrel]

Love me some Tekkit and Technic original

[late robin]

back to the past, wouldnt be a bad 2-4 week timesink, give us time to think of a real modpack for challenge --- hard bump with elbow to D'Amico

[mild sorrel]

RLcraft

If you want a difficulty adjustment

[late robin]

are u actually wanting RLcraft.... bro

[mild sorrel]

Nah no

I played that a day, fucking hated it.

[late robin]

any old pack suggestions?

[graceful flare]

Oh i thought it was like 1.4 or something like that

[late robin]

theres a lot of modpacs released within the last 6 months that are for versions of minecraft when technic came out

ppl like the classics, specially some of the mods back when

[graceful flare]

I didnt mind trying out RLcraft. I changed the item pick up feature though because that was just annoying. I wasn't about to change how I picked up items

[late robin]

thats a joke pack

[graceful flare]

There are some many classic packs i wpulndt mind visiting again. Some of em are kitchen sink ones too. Questionable stability for some.

[late robin]

seriously, only do it if u feel like you need to punish yourself

look for the re-makes of them too

[graceful flare]

Time has aged some of the packs because of the java program updates

[late robin]

like technic classic redux or something

[graceful flare]

I was playing the 1.7.10 pack recently. And then dropped it off my radar after going back to base. To find for some reason my steam dynamos were empty from full stacks of coal and a leadstone jetpack disappeared into thin air.

Could make it interesting and do like a war pack or something. Where like we agree to gather n build for like a week or two. Then have batlle at a agreed upon time

[mild sorrel]

Thrawn looking like this modpack lol

Fabri's Frontiers, BetterMC (BMC5 or 4), Homestead - just listing random types of modpacks that might appeal to others

outside the kitchensink packs or age-progression ideas. Again idc what others choose or whatnot, im down for the phase

[late robin]

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ygZ4dhJEBsk&t=262s

could just do tank tussle

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b6imLkIIO-E&feature=youtu.be

[graceful flare]

perhaps some time to think on this!?

[late robin]

throwing this out there...
https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/cabin

Yeah, keep tossing in suggestions, I'm sure someone will pop in and say they already got X server going and to join it.

but if we collect and think on it over the week, probably something nice will come of it.

[ashen lintel]

what have you's decided on?

any chance we can find a modpack where we all can be fairies? 😆

[graceful flare]

you know what, truest opinion of mine. Sevtech Ages does sound kinda fun.

[ashen lintel]

I second this!

[late robin]

sounds good, dont be mad if u can figure out the drums

@ashen lintel @graceful flare I'm throwing the zip file for the server files on there now

u guys can play with it in about 5-15 minutes give or take

and if u change ur mind on it, just pop in with another suggestion

[late robin]

Sevtech Ages 1.12.2 Modpack

• Modpack Version 3.2.3 (December 2021)
• Curseforge Download -> https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/modpacks/sevtech-ages/files/3569915
• Also available on Prism or ATLauncher.
• Java version 8 is required for this pack Its an old pack, so Java 16, 21, and 23 will not work.

SevTech: Ages is a massive modpack packed with content and progression. This pack focuses on providing the player a long term progression experience with purpose. SevTech introduces a number of mechanics never before done such as: hiding ore until unlocked, dynamically hidden items and recipes based on progress, new mobs appear as you progress further, and much more! The modpack uses the vanilla advancement system to guide the player along while still allowing an open, sandbox experience. As you progress through the hundreds of custom advancements you will unlock new "ages" which will show you new mods to work through.

SevTech aims to introduce many mods not frequently used while altering some more widely known mods. The pack also features a ton of custom mods for the best player experience.

You'll start your first world with nothing. No map or HWYLA and only a handful of items and recipes. As you progress, you will unlock those features, thousands of items and blocks, and much more. Your goal is to follow through the advancement system from the stone age all the way into space!

Server Details

Please keep in mind that the initial start of the server is not ideal to join, Typically a process of world generation followed by optimizing the JVM parameters to how the game runs ensures fun and lag free gameplay.

THIS IS NOT THE CASE You will be joining in a raw, un optimized server that has done no tweaking for this modpack.
Server Address: amp.sw386.us:25566
Password: N/A
Whitelist will be added at a later time, (Join the game, get kicked by server and rejoin to play.)

[graceful flare]

wow that was fast! 😂

think ill raincheck on starting today, gonna be a couple of days probably before i can play anything. Got my Eye surgery tomorrow

and ill be gone in a hour or so for the day 😭

[late robin]

no biggie, my vacation / bday starts next week, so I'm kinda holding off myself.

[mild sorrel]

Big snow storm today. Might hop on tonight

[late robin]

I wonder if u can quest share on this one

if so, we could just all be in the same team, I doubt we gonna get crazy far, even with all of us in the same group.

[graceful flare]

yeah there is team progression which is pretty neat. So say we all play for a few hours, then some log off and get on later. they will get updated advancements when they log in.

Only thing is idk if the group leader needs to be on or if it is just a matter of being in a team

[late robin]

had to turn off online-mode, since the old auth server on that pack doesnt exist

dont be hack'n

[graceful flare]

Wait huh?

[graceful flare]

https://borg286.github.io/sevtech/

This is a little tips n tricks guide for Sevtech. Really handy info in here for a lot of early and mid game

Also should we agree on a date to all log on together? I know Sweetwater said he'd have the longest wait time because of something. But I thought it was a good idea. Especially if we are gonna collab

[mild sorrel]

Im down. I might be able to make it work

[graceful flare]

Cool. Is your schedule usually busy? I forget what it is you do!

I thought it was college or something like that

[mild sorrel]

Im working full-time during the week but im back in college for my Masters

[graceful flare]

Thats right. I thought there was a reason you had a sharper lack of free time for some reason.

[mild sorrel]

Sadly yeaaa

[graceful flare]

Big oof. How long do you got? Til completion?

[mild sorrel]

Spring 2027

[graceful flare]

Oof. Gonna be a long year

[mild sorrel]

Ehh, on the fast track right now. 3 courses this semster, 2 in Fall and 2 in my last Spring

[graceful flare]

oh that's not too bad but going for a masters degree i can't imagine the courses are easy despite having only 3 this semester.

my BF is going for a accounting degree, but he is doing 5 this semester whilst working a full job and partly at long horn steak house for some extra money to pay for college

he refuses to accept my help financially on college paying but im here if he needed it

[mild sorrel]

Its not so so bad, definitely more intense/demanding than undergrad classes but its nice to feel some challenge to the classes. As long as they arent super strict with requirements in a way

[graceful flare]

yeah fr! some of these professors my bf has to put up with, it is a wonder how they even have a job at the Univerity, because of how stupid or inept they are at the most simplistic of things for their class(es).

[graceful flare]

if no one has started yet today is the day I am ready to go

lmk

[mild sorrel]

I can try to pop on later if the server is ready to go

[mild sorrel]

should we re-pin this and remove the ATM10 server deets?

[late robin]

@graceful flare @mental obsidian I'm on holiday all next week, so let me know when to pop in to join. I'll be at home doing mostly nothing, as I like to do.

[mental obsidian]

@mild sorrel Papa, the block people are calling you.

[mild sorrel]

That was not the ping notification i thought id see…

[late robin]

oh boy, ima about to change your name

[mental obsidian]

xD

It's funny because you actually can.

Also, it's fun that we are the same rank now.

[mild sorrel]
