Might be a bug? I know one other person on my server has asked me how to get it because they didnt get it from the Wither as well

torpid trail
#

If fire destroys it, that might be the case, the field i was fighting it was full of fire from it's projectiles.... i used it to float up to stab it lmao

#

Hello! Is this the best channel to discuss MCE2? Just found it on CurseForge

#

Really excited to try this, MCE was one of my favorite packs

frozen dome
#

#🏮-mce-general is fine

west dome
#

An MCE channel, to discuss MCE2? 🤨

I hope MCE2 gets its own, because that's going to be so confusing

not wrong, but it is what it is now shrug

torpid trail
#

Im new to rats so idk if Im missing something. My rat is fishing but doesnt take the loot to the chest aaaigned with the stick

#

Am i missing anything? Same with the gardener upgrade

misty ingot
#

is the demonic eye opnly a chance drop

#

not guarantee?

bold forge
misty ingot
#

yes

bold forge
#

it currently is due to an error

#

but it is supposed to be guaranteed

misty ingot
#

rip

bold forge
#

we will probably push a hotfix within the next few days to fix it

#

if you're on singleplayer, you can fix it manually

#

or on server, if you have access to the server's files, you can

misty ingot
#

my friend runs the server i play on what would he have to do

torpid trail
misty ingot
#

Got it fixed it was set to .1 not 1

trail heron
#

the money we get from quests is curently useless as there is no shop yet?

grand raptor
#

Correct

vale vault
#

Can be used for the fast travel to spawn repeatable quest but yea otherwise SAVE YOUR COINS

#

Do we have an eta on first iteration of shop yet?

#

Hope it’s locked behind a quest or maybe even a physical block for immersion lol, like a computer that you one day delivery from a rat plane lol

frozen dome
vale vault
#

How much to fast track it emp, what is your price x.x HOW MUCH COFFEE

bold forge
#

but i guess you could give me 5 dollars and complain

#

i know how much some of you want the goddamn shop

vale vault
#

I’m not going to complain who do you take me forrrr

#

Il wait patiently… just in the corner, over your shoulder, all the time 👀

torpid trail
#

Am I screwed if Ive been picking up the coins lol

bold forge
#

they are saved

#

they have been the entire time

#

all of the framework to make them exist and be accessible by code has been there the whole time

#

you can see how many you have with /ec checkbalance eternalcurrencies:coins

torpid trail
#

Oo ok nice, I was worried cuz the coin achievedment showed 0

bold forge
#

and iirc i programmed it so it doesn't take any and all coins you currently have, unlike FTB Money did

#

so your coins can't get stuck in quest purgatory

#

it will only work if you have that much money in your balance

torpid trail
#

Big brain

hollow crow
#

Tbh the reason why I need minimap is because I need to stay away from dragons at all time

#

Since Im basically a starter

tepid geyser
#

I may be wrong, but i think they only start spawning a couple thousand block from spawn, so if you're a starter you're probably somewhat safe for now

ornate swallow
#

there's a 1500 block safety radius for dragon spawns iirc

frozen dome
#

it's actually 2500

sacred atlas
#

my first dragon was 17k block away 💀

#

I got geoty mobs attacking my base every 5 secs any tips?

#

whats the best way to find a woodland mansion so i can get this vizier out of the way, is it actually just randomly fly around and hope luck is in your favor

maiden vine
#

Pretty much. I think there MIGHT be an Ars ritual to locate strcutures

green sand
#

They sell woodland mansion maps

vale vault
#

Tablets of cupidity if you get super lucky and locates a structure instead of a spawner… tho with the sheer amounts of spawners it’s been hard lol

#

Also might be misremembering but I’m pretty sure woodland mansions aren’t just in dark forests any more, they have different variants in different biomes so flying around and seeing a footing roof blob on a map of a solid wood color is a telling sign

signal wraith
#

goety boss

vale vault
#

Ooooo

#

Also just saw the sneak peak can’t believe we getting a cobble on crossover o.o wonder if we can put dragons into them

hybrid path
#

I assume since dragons and the trex were banned from the soul vials in the last update this is that solution so you can still carry them with you

#

But dragons do already have the horns

real whale
#

is there now way to process nether rack? im tryna make mass blaze cakes

maiden vine
#

I recommend get an infinite lava source (10k blocks with create) and send that to mechanical drying basins to get magma blocks to send those into another mechanical drying basins to get nether rack

vale vault
#

So that would be sick for a more consistent one where I don’t need to right click again the fame dragon unless I want to track it down again lol

wide lichen
misty ingot
#

I can ask my friend but I think he just looked for key words like ignis and the demonic eye item

wide lichen
#

well by what exactly I mean its obvious the .1 was changed to 1 but my server admin is struggling to find where exactly to make that change

wide lichen
#

I think I found it now, for everyone curious to find it and fix it for their server (term for discord search: Demonic Eye Ignis)
in the configurableextramobdrops folder there is a file called mobdropconfig, in that file under Ignis the ID: "endrem:nether_eye" is set to a drop chance of 0.1 when it should be 1.0

misty ingot

does claiming gen between dimensions?

dusk crow
#

why wont power go into the task screen?

lethal sail
#

anybody figured out neutronite yet?

small flare
#

Just noticing that the fire orb of doesn't upgrade the ignis spellbook properly

#

All the others seem to work just fine

bold forge
#

lol

#

gotta be cataclysm spellbooks doing things in a questionable manner :v

small flare
#

I'd like it if they'd have their spell books would do things in a non questionable manner. I'm trying to become the ultimate Firelord

bold forge
#

check if their other spellbooks have the same problem

#

if they do it's probably cause the modifiers are using the same UUID as the school upgrades, which seems like a big dumb thing

small flare
#

I also noticed that if you try to upgrade the Ignis armor with upgrade orbs already applied to the Elytra Ignis armor it will flat out crash the game sending you back to the menu and cause weird visual errors like transmorg items not showing or functioning properly or certain blocks not showing like the anvil itself and the test dummies

bold forge
#

yeah their armor has some rendering issues atm for some reason

#

it might have something to do with duplicate renders when it comes the fusion anvil

small flare
#

Gotcha

bold forge
#

unless that has a preview on the right like smithing

#

not sure, never used it

broken dew
bold forge
#

their spellbooks actually seem to be implemented reasonably in the source code

small flare
#

Seems to happen with the others two but only when using an orb of the same type

#

For context the base number for the spell power increase on their books is 30%

bold forge
#

there's no overlapping UUIDs in reality

#

so it could be something else, like irons' softcap system being set off

small flare
#

I was thinking something similar but the Cataclysm armors are allowed to reach 35% through upgrade orbs

#

does anyone have power generation advice? im trying to use thermal magmatic dynamos with blazing blood but that doesnt seem like a long term option

#

Hey, does anyone have an awesome world seed to share? I'm wanting to restart to play "for real" after messing around for a while

#

I'm especially interested in green areas (as opposed to snow, desert, etc.) with a good area for building, and vicinity to warm ocean. Maybe someone has something like that.

misty ingot
#

this dragon has an invisible aoe how do i even dodge it

tepid geyser
#

should hold you over nicely until you can make a gas gen from mekanism

vale vault
#

Hey quick question, so I built my base in the warm ocean (like it’s in those arching pillars and almost stone rainbows) and I’m making floating islands and different pyres n stuff, but certain materials keep getting sandy or piles of sand ontop of them and it’s kinda annoying, any recommendations to stop immersive weathering in an area or should I just use different materials that don’t have weather versions?

fiery birch
tepid geyser
#

i have a single generator and it can go up to 60kfe/t when the network is processing ores, but if you're post ender dragon you can use it as a temporary solution until you have turbines online

fiery birch
#

perfect thank you!

#

you rock

small flare
#

Was the Lich removed from the pack as a whole?

#

or just the requirement to fight him

bold forge
#

just the necessity of fighting it

small flare
#

Thank you

#

Is the obsidian heart actually only obtainable through loot chests?

bold forge
#

no, it's dropped from a BOMD boss in The End

#

the Obsidilith to be particular

small flare
#

Thank you again

west dome
#

I'm bummed that Apotheosis isn't in this, even a severely toned down version for balance. Why was it left out?

#

WOW, Tinker's has gotten so much cooler since I last played with it. I'm so glad it's in this pack!

#

Lately I had been partial to Silent Gear and its addons, but this works well

vagrant warren
bold forge
#

apoth would need to be so toned down that it would arguably create disappointment from some

#

i believe it would anyway

#

same case as Draconic in MCE1

west dome
#

I'm excited the Enchantment Library is in this, thanks for telling me. The recipe is insanely easy, though; far more so than in Apotheosis which is a bit of a challenge. Is there a plan to gate it a bit more behind some more challenging progress?

west dome
bold forge
#

it would have been in the same situation

west dome
small flare
#

I still hope someday we'll see the Enchantment Table Buildup portion included, it was just fun having to math out/build it up

#

Gives the table a lil more P'zaz and imo it's a fun thing to work out up while when playing something with adventure progression like this

west dome
#

Is a Cursed Armor going to spawn for every single chest I open? It's been 10 in a row so far

Does wood decay on water?

prisma atlas
#

Does anyone know what those Efficiency debuffs on Accessories do?

#

I'm not sure what efficiency is being debuffed

bold forge
#

affect the potency of the accessory's effect

#

you can see that there's text in its description which is the same color as the efficiency modifier

prisma atlas

#

yes

#

Perfect thanks!

frozen dome

and you can craft multiple of the same together to improve efficiency

ae2 exporting of fluid is too slow even with 4 accel cards. is there an alternative to exporting a ton of fluid outside of quantum entanglaporter? or am i missing something? primarily trying to find an alternative to the sink thats effective and efficient for the amount of mass production we have?

hybrid path
waxen shore
#

negative. just outputting a ton of water from our me into a ton of machines. (massive brine farm / gas productions.) we have an entanglaporter hooked to a massive pump farm but have also reached a chokepoint with that output. wondering if there is anything that can rival the sink in uncapped output. or am i setting up a second water output through yet another entanglaporter.

hybrid path
#

if you need unlimited water to put in machines putting a goety haunted jug with integrated dynamics pipes is fast and endless

#

thats how me and a friend made singularities so if the pipes and blocks work together maybe that can help

has anyone else had problems force chunk loading in another dim (sakura) and its not actually force chunk loading it? i already have ftbchunk force load to always but its still not working.

prisma atlas
#

Has anyone come across colorful blocky dragons?

#

And if so are they dangerous?

#

I set up a base in a meadow and suddenly I'm surrounded by these massive dragon-looking things that jump out of the water

frozen dome
#

are they swimming? do you mean these ones?

vale vault
#

~~Sea serpents about to obliterate mind and body really quick if they aren’t /~~

real whale
#

what are my options for a chunk loader in the nether?

frozen dome
#

oh, right, "massive". then it's not those ones in the image ratlaugh

vale vault
#

maybe they are secretly a rat and its all about perspective size, i think thats a perfectly respectably sized mob >.<

real whale
#

I cant seem to use FTB to claim chunks in the nether?

prisma atlas
# frozen dome are they swimming? do you mean these ones?

Sorry just saw this. I think it's part of the Candy Cavity. Not sure how rare that biome is, but I just happened to set up my base directly above it, and now there are multiple giant dragon-looking things randomly popping up out of nowhere.

#

They are not the mobs in the image you sent

#

Also, side question, but does the Light buff from Corail Tombstone, which reduces the damage from undead mobs, work on things like bosses, Kobolds, The Ancient Remnant, etc.? I'm not sure how far that buff goes or if it's mainly for skeletons and zombies.

vale vault
#

Not sure how modding works that well or tags but it wouldn’t surprise me if it’s a tag or something so creators can say it’s undead (like how smite works on most modded undead mobs)

#

So anything considered undead modding or otherwise would be effected by that buff

small flare
#

This question is for the devs and such but is there supposed to be a Candy Cavity DIM or did I stumble into something I wasn't meant to be in

frozen dome
#

dim? as in dimension? no, but a big cave

misty ingot
#

What’s needed for sharing health for your rat?

small flare
#

Mustve been a bug then, would explain the normal fish being on the world but when when I fell to the moon from a friends space station, I fell into a Candy Cavity world

hybrid path
#

how do you fight ignis more then once, there is only one ignited revenant and it seems they do not respawn?

compact spruce
#

there should be two revenants, and you're intended to find more structures

vale vault
#

But no that’s crazy bug tho I bet, but maybe would be awesome if all the Alex caves being turned into demensions versions similar to the bosses?

#

(Conspiracy theories I got no idea)

#

Also crazy question but what yall think is best method for getting netherite only in overworld or non nether gated demensions?

half pike
#

the ancient factories. they always spawn with 4 ancient debris

vale vault
#

o.O thank you il def start searching o.O

half pike
#

Craft an eye of the mech, will make your search a whole hell of lot easier, as the factories only spawn underground(and on the server I play on, under the ocean).

Also, the room with the ancient debris is hidden to the right if the Harbringer boss(who is powered down and won't move when you enter the arena)

fallen yarrow
#

a change in config for sophisticated storage wouldnt go unappreciated more so for the stack upgrade limits in a given storage having that at higher than 2 would be nice

tepid geyser
#

genuine question: what situation are you in where you need more than 2 stack upgrades? is moving to the next tier of upgrade not an option?
or maybe moving some of the bulk items to storage drawers since those can hold a lot more upgrades

fallen yarrow
#

i have a ss in general that would answer that, i can put it here if you like

tepid geyser
#

ye just saw it, might want to look at a voiding upgrade instead lmao

#

that being said you can easily solve this with storage drawers, you can fit a whole bunch of them per drawer, and each emerald upgrade will multiply the current max stack limit by 32

fallen yarrow
#

that is true i did forget about that

tepid geyser
#

fix one insane number with another insane number, fun game of chicken

fallen yarrow
#

it only holds 458k

#

imma try a dank

tepid geyser
#

that's odd, i'm pretty sure i got a drawer to hold a few hundred million items before, can't check from work tho ._.

fallen yarrow
#

i have moved to dank number 7

#

stack size of 2.1 billion

green sand
tepid geyser
#

still at work ._.
i've not been able to get the hose to actually say anything about recognising it as infinite in this pack, but it still treats it as one

green sand
#

does it look like the corners get pulled but it all is treated as infinite?

tepid geyser
#

nope, it's just a normal flat square of lava

green sand
#

hmm, im having an issue where the corners get pulled into the hose and ive had to shut off the system before it pulls all the source blocks

tepid geyser
#

and you're certain it's at least 100 blocks deep right?
easy to lose a layer here and there

green sand
#

yeah i double checked

tepid geyser
#

also, just checking off the obvious things, the hose needs to be all the way to the bottom of the pool

green sand
#

hmm lemme sink to the bottom and double check that

tepid geyser
#

if the bottom is flat you just need to make sure you roll it out until it stops moving, but making sure doesn't hurt ye

green sand
#

looks like the hose reaches the bottom

tepid geyser
#

odd, if it's still not working by the time i'm home i'll ping you and we can see about troubleshooting it

green sand
#

awesome ty!

#

i'll let it run just in case it might just be an oddity and see if maybe it was just being weird

tepid geyser
green sand
tepid geyser
#

this is how i have it, 10x10 lava source blocks on layer 63 with the hole going down to -44 and the pulley touching the bottom

green sand
#

hmm, maybe my issue is i have my pulley in the center

tepid geyser
#

(also i don't know if this is the right place for long running troubleshooting so feel free to move it somewhere else or message me directly if that's better)

prisma atlas
#

Question for the devs...I'm not sure if this is a vanilla Minecraft thing or not, but your weapon's durability depletes by one PER MOB HIT, so I just had an enchanted iron sword with mending at full durability break almost instantaneously because I swiped multiple mobs in my farm.

#

Is this something that can be looked at? It's actually insane how fast items break, including diamond. I've resorted to using wooden swords at my mob farm because they break in three hits and I don't want to waste durability on higher-tier items.

tepid geyser
#

according to the minecraft wiki that's a vanilla thing, you can use unbreaking to reduce the chance of durability going down
alternatively you can use an unbreakable sword, powered or tinker (still needs repairing unless you make it unbreakable or powered)

prisma atlas
tepid geyser
#

as far as i can see each mob hit counts as 1 use in vanilla yes, a basic iron sword has like 250 durability tho, how many mobs are we talking about here that it would break that fast?

prisma atlas
tepid geyser
#

i'm surprised entity cramming wasn't doing the job then lol, but ye in that case each swing would do 30-40 durability without unbreaking i think

prisma atlas
#

Well thanks, it's insane that this is a thing though lol

vale vault
#

I mean you are swinging a sword at like superhuman speed through dozens of feet worth of flesh, bone, and armor, that would damage any tool pretty quickly lmao, but yea that is crazy, maybe make sure you are chewing the mobs up through spikes or fall damage so you don’t have to hit any multiple times

prisma atlas
#

Is there anything in MCE2 similar to the Slime Sling to get around faster?

compact spruce
#

the slinging mechanic still exists, it's just a modifier now

fiery jackal
prisma atlas
#

Is Corail Tombstone bugged in MCE2? I have the Treasure Seeker perked maxed out to obtain drops at 100% but I rarely get any still

frozen dome
#

it might only be a 100% chance increase not 100% as in "every time"

#

I just ran into The Goose and I regret my decision to have walked into its territory

#

anyone know why i cant break certain block like cobble and containment jars? anyone have this issue? the only thing that had changed was becoming a vampire hunter

vale vault

#

Was wondering how to reset them since once they hit max level I tried doing the reset level option but it’s still at max just with lower stats now :c

#

Like it doesn’t gain experience anymore sadlyyy

prisma atlas
#

I found a potential bug. I was killed by an Illager Pikeman (which I believe just spawned randomly with a small raiding party) from behind a glass pane and two blocks away. I was sitting in a chair afk and it was able to kill me through the glass barrier. There were no holes at all and there was a table in between the glass and chair, so realistically this should not have killed me

yeah i know its supposed to be hostile but im not sure as to whats the correct approach to the dimension is.
is it supposed to be all sneaky? well tough luck a vulture just beacons your location to everyone
is it supposed then to be a all hell let loose and try surviving all the mobs? then when do you mine?
all that and me not finding any osmium makes this a really awful experience

I followed other ppls advice and went all the way to the top before mining, if you light up your own tunnels it's pretty peaceful

does compact machines chunk loading not work currently? ive tried chunkloading both the chunk the machine is in and the machine itself while inside it through FTB yet no matter what how I try it doesnt seem to work

Could be my luck again but did anyone else have trouble finding the structure for the rat baron and Flying dutchrat?

#

I see that theyre objects to spawn them can be mad as a work around but I was hoping to find their "arenas"

#

Flying Dutchrat is a floating ship made of translucent green wooden blocks in the air. cant miss it.

#

Rat Baron is a landing stripway made of black and white blocks on the ground.

I'm not convinced Chunk Loading works at all, I've got 7 chunks force loaded and even when I'm online and leave the area I think they unload.

Not great for this PITA nether Lava Train I spent forever setting up Sadge

Vanilla or Ars chunk loading are still options

If ftb is being goofy, and also that one wireless power mod I think has a chunk loader

Oh yeah, the one from ender IO too

untold pilot
#

Yeah, I'm not a fan of it either, I hate having things I set up to be reliably on when I'm playing blink out of existence because there's something that unloading the stuff I specifically went out of my way to make sure was loaded
It was worse when I had my base inside compact machines, they wouldn't even stay loaded while I was online

how can we know our current money balance

I find it really weird that the quests say to melt the blazes in the smeltery but there is a blaze that teleports out causing issues. Wondering if those jolt blazes should have been black listed. Anyway I read about the ichor and going to go that method.

#

Any way to make iron spells stay longer? Or only way is to use potions?

fiery jackal

#

It wouldn't surprise me if iron golem are blocked. As for crocs there might be a health limit. Which means the more health the mob has the more energy it needs. And those might exceed the limit

ornate swallow
#

iirc iron golems are just default blocked by enderio spawners

prisma atlas
#

Does anyone know if the Slayer cloak works on boss mobs, and also what’s the HP threshold that monsters need to be at in order to install-kill them with the cloak?

small flare
#

If so I believe the potion is one option but if im not mistaken, increasing the rarity/level of the spell as well as increasing your spell power should do the trick

#

Holy or General spell power should work

trail heron
#

@small flare I made a oakskin lvl 4 but I lasts only 32 seconds, I hoped to make it a minute at least

small flare
#

My bad, Oakskin*. I believe mine is somewhere close to 1 minute or over so it should be possible i could better let you know when I get home but if im not mistaken duration values and strength values almost all go up with general spell power% and school spell power%

#

Try wearing iron spells book armor, using the upgrade orbs on your choice of armor/spell book or using the right modifiers on any tinkeres tool/armor

#

Has anyone run into annoying issues with the farmers hut in minecolonies?

#

The one im dealing with right now is that im trying to get my farmer to plant Durum wheat in my jungle village, first he doesnt really obey the field size restrictions and then he also just tills the earth but doesnt plant the wheat

#

Ive tried to get him to plant carrots and garlic too but i just get the same results

minecolonies seems to behave really stupid in this pack and I hope for it to get removed

#

oh shit

frozen dome
#

there are more, he likes that it's "different" and enables other playstyles and such

#

which is true to be fair

fallow plinth
#

I feel like it's a big blob of bloat and fits better in a pack centered around it

frozen dome
#

I would agree with that

fallow plinth
#

not saying I dislike it

frozen dome
#

it's like... when you like the mod then you would play a pack just for it. if you don't you would just never use it, it's a thing on its own, not really integrated.
and on servers it might even be banned

#

it's not that I dislike it, but it feels so bad in a pack with so many other and "better" options

#

it's like... I wouldn't try to play skyblock in MCE2 as well you know

#

but the idea of it is pretty cool and I kinda want to play around with it at some point. I just can't really imagine doing that in MCE2

fallow plinth
#

same
its also a huge mod and I would rather have 2 more tech mods in its place

I like minecolonies but you kinda have to view it as a fishtank

though to be fair, I'm not even sure there are any other good tech mods? but I'm not an expert, but from MCE1 I mostly remember Thermal, EnderIO, Mek, Nuclearcraft

fallow plinth
#

Like I expected much more of Thermal and EnderIO, and now I feel like these mods have been subpar since 1.12.
there's a leftover config for IF which I would love to see personally with all it can do
never really got into Nuclearcraft but I remember it having some cool stuff, heck even AA even though the stuff was all around the place

#

magic mods have really taken over in terms of quality and content compared to 1.12. which I really enjoy

it just might take a while, but afaik the idea is to make planets unique and interesting, yeah

topaz geyser

hopefully space stations become more useful too

maybe a cheaper rocket that can travel between planetary orbits, then we can take landers down

of course that's more on ad astra's end than mce's, but yknow

I mean ive had people who decide to make rats their source of power generation, resource generation and combat, same with magic, and I feel like its the same for minecolonies

#

Ive always just been of the mind set that my main joy with MCE is that it has a lot of fun directions to explore into and if eel thats exactly what minecolonies brings to the table on its own

#

Right now im trying to figure out ways to integrate rats and minecolonies into a nice island civilization within ratlantis. Sort of bring a real Neo-Ratlanteans vibe to the dimension

#

Different sort of rat guards to defend the town and then just have some rats that work there and live in their own homes for fun

also a random skele spawned that like just is frozen and these two gaurd villagers have tried tro damage it for like a solid 10 min lmao

Doesn't that require a drop from a boss in the end? No way is that less expensive lol

small flare
#

Personally I'd rather fight that boss 20 times than try to automate getting netherite to build I think it's 16 or 20 netherite blocks

compact spruce
#

You don't actually need netherite for it, you can just use crying obsidian and gilded blackstone

#

And the boss itself isn't hard, it's more the fact that it's end gated

frozen dome
#

that's not true

#

crying/gilded is the same category

#

as is netherite blocks and ancient debris itself

compact spruce
#

unless it was changed recently, the categories mean nothing and you can just build the whole thing out of one material

frozen dome
#

I doubt that very much, because Emper would have surely checked that before making the ponder

#

but I can easily test that tomorrow, I finally have lots of crying obsidian

bold forge
#

i didn't check the goddamn code and all the tags

#

i checked the curse page info which was apparently wrong :v

#

the ponder is updated to reflect this information in the upcoming patch

frozen dome
#

seriously? 😂 that's absolutely crazy

#

though actually it's still nether locked that way (well mostly), but at least it's affordable at all, which is great news

small flare

Massive news infact

maiden vine
#

There's even a tag for brazier materials, so in thoery you could add or remove some, right?

Imagine if you needed only enderium blocks for it 😛

im going to hold off from exploring the end for a while but would skiping expert and going right to master cause any problems? or would is also activate all expert mode mobs

#

only took around 250 days and let me tell you, yoinking the gamma gun from space cowboy and farming the amythest grabs they spawn has been a life saver, amythest bloom armour was amazing, also heartstop, guybrush until it almost broke and then firedragon blood sword has been amazing... shoulvd edone the desert boss first tho imo since the weapons (and spells) you get would have helped soooo much with other bosses damage wise

#

overall awesome to see how doable it was and not saying it should nesserily be a 'challenge' in the quest packs but was def a fun experience, and honestly I want to go as long as possible like this since not having easy acces to blazes and glowstone, quartz and other nether materials has made me find some unique ways of getting it, and finnally figuring out the pale eye and fighting scylia (levathian is too powerful for me x.x, plus got super lucky geting the mech eye from a black market container even tho i think its not technically nether gated)

Can more performance mods be added in the next update? Since MCE2 is a huge Modpack, performance mods are very needed. One of them is Entity Culling. I think it can greatly increase the performance. There's also Badoptimizations, DoesPotatoTick and others

bold forge
inland hull
#

Ok, thanks

inland hull
#

Oh, btw, I just added a few performance mods to the pack myself and my fps increased significantly( also important to mention that I play MCE2 with 68 extra mods, so it is heavier for me). I went from average 70 FPS with Photon shaders to average 100 and no stutters with these performance mods: Entity Culling, AI improvements, Fastworkbench, FastFurnace, Cull Leaves, DoesPotatoTick, FastBoot and Badoptimizations. I know testing is required, but I'm just saying these mods actually help a ton, especially for low-end PCs.

i cant create a superflat, does anyone know how to fix this?

prisma atlas

So this is odd,
I was in my HC world, and I mined an ore in the Nether with vein miner. I had a Totem of Undying. The ore exploded, and I'm assuming all of the ore did as well, and it says I died but my totem still went off. The game then immediately crashed?
Has anyone else experienced this?
I'm not sure how I still died with the totem
It's like the game bugged out and killed me first before the totem went off

that's interesting, post the text with the crashlog in #🦝mce2-client-questions-and-issues

the folder is called simplebackups afaik

plush jay
prisma atlas
#

I could be wrong but based on how I moved it was a crazy amount of damage and I was far away

prisma atlas
#

The only difference is that with vein mine you seem to take the explosion damage from every explosion all at once whereas normal mining you seem to take the damage every tick. I’m assuming that’s because the individual blocks are exploding with normal mining but not with vein mine.

plush jay
#

dont think its bugged, i believe it's to do with you mining it so fast, each block acts like its own block of tnt, and setting off one creates a chain reaction

#

on a side not making a few ore blocks could be good for trolling a few ppl

whole dawn
#

stibinite (prolly misspelled but its the green nether ore) is easy to mine, if you do it one piece at a time. the first piece you mine primes the other pieces in direct contact with it so if you hit those they detonate. Its tell is that the 'dark' part of the ore is now lit up kinda like redstone but not as obvious. if you mine a non-primed ore block, near the primed ones, it'll deactivate them and instead prime the ones in direct contact with that new location you just mined. it took me getting exploded twice to figure it out

vale vault

Oh really so it’s like, a mining puzzle? I never knew that even in of mce lmao, I just took the risk with each one and took the damage in stride (or death)

I've been thinking of the creeper milk mod, and I've got a few ideas on expanding it.

  1. One bucket of creeper milk + four bamboo + four string makes four dynamite. Throwable and does area damage, but not strong enough to destroy blocks.
  2. Putting creeper milk in a cauldron and waiting turns it into cheese. These cheese blocks work the same as TNT but are not affected by gravity when activated.
  3. If rats exist in the world, creeper cheese blocks also work as pest control. Rats will go to the cheese and eat some of it before exploding. Don't know how many rats it would take to completely eat a cheese block though.

yeah there's some weird behavior going on with the Min Dependencies option for quests. that depends on a quest that requires any 12 of the 16 possible eyes, but said quest only seems to recognize completion when you have all its dependencies done, even though it should only need any 12 of them

#

i'm not sure if it's just min dependencies acting up, or if it's a combination of nonlinear quest progression and min dependencies behaving weird together.
