quest progress reset

[sand yarrow]

what do you mean with "switch between builds"?

[ruby pagoda]

I changed the launcher folder location to another one to play on a different modpack, and when I switched back everything got reset 🙁

[sand yarrow]

well - that sounds like an issue with your launcher
I'm using PRISM and I can install multiple modpacks in parallel - and they each have their own folder with their own quest progress

I can't tell you where the quest progress is stored - my guess is somewhere in the save folder as NBT data - so opening a save with a different quest config might corrupt or destroy the saves progress

[ruby pagoda]

Could this be related to changing the nickname?

[sand yarrow]

also possible - as each player has their own quest progress

[ruby pagoda]

You don’t happen to know where the NBT quest data is stored, so I could find out my old nickname? I just don’t remember it anymore

[sand yarrow]

as I just told you - I don't know

you might need to ask the FTB quests github or see if they have a discord

[ruby pagoda]

Maybe

By the way, while playing the modpack, I didn’t figure out where to get Blazing Copper — the recipes only show processing things I don’t have yet.

[sand yarrow]

never heard of blazing copper

[ruby pagoda]

5 sec

[sand yarrow]

can't read any of that

[ruby pagoda]

Annealed copper

Just a translator

[sand yarrow]

ahh that - you need a arc furnace for that

[ruby pagoda]

5 sec

For crafting, you need resistors, and they are made from annealed copper.

[fringe garden]

shouldn't be as its stored against uuid not username 🤔

[fringe garden]

.minecraft/saves/<your save>/ftbquests/<uuid>.snbt

where <your save> is the name of your save and <uuid> is the uuid of your minecraft account

[sand yarrow]

you need to look through multiple recipes - there are easier & more expensive, and cheaper but more complex recipes

[ruby pagoda]

But they aren’t there — only smelting items made from annealed copper.

[sand yarrow]

for the resistor!

[ruby pagoda]

The arc furnace is made from resistors.

[ruby pagoda]

thx bro

[sand yarrow]

…

[fringe garden]

theres about 10 different recipes for resistors

iirc half uses copper and the other half used annealed copper

[ruby pagoda]

Ah, got it, thanks a lot!

[fringe garden]

the dusts are charcoal carbon and coal

np

i dont actually see a recipe with annealed 🤔

ah the assembler recipes can use it

[ruby pagoda]

The wires were probably crafted from it — I might have mixed something up.

Is there a wiki for this modpack?

[fringe garden]

only really the quests

there is a wiki for GTM but its about pack or addon development stuff not the actual content

[ruby pagoda]

Are there ways to upload the modpack to a server? My laptop is a bit weak, and I want to offload the load to a server.

[fringe garden]

there is a serverpack, the current one on curseforge is broken, but there is one on github that works https://github.com/GregTechCEu/GregTech-Modern-Community-Pack/tree/1bf83abc1d3c0db473d96b1eae9519eda857dd0d/serverpack

[ruby pagoda]

thx!

[ruby pagoda]

Thank so much! I was able to restore quests everything and craft the resistors!

[fringe garden]

nice

[ruby pagoda]

Could you tell me how to use a server pack? I haven't figured it out.

[fringe garden]

download it off of curseforge

run the start.sh/start.ps1 depending on if you are on windows or linux

[ruby pagoda]

[fringe garden]

oh no, lemme have a look

are you using linux or windows on your server

[fringe garden]

i typoed the git tag sorry

lemme quickly fix

should be fixed 👍

[ruby pagoda]

windows

[ruby pagoda]

?

[fringe garden]

the tag is supposted to be v1.14.1 but i typoed it as v.1.14.1 when making the release

its fixed now though

[ruby pagoda]

Please send me the download link for the latest version, I can't find it on GitHub lol.

[fringe garden]

the github link here should have it

[ruby pagoda]

oh

I tried that, it didn’t help

[fringe garden]

whats the error? and have you tried again?

the script asks github for a specific tag, which didnt initally exist but now does

and i can confirm the script works for me

(or the linux one does atleast :p)

[ruby pagoda]

yes, error code 1(((

[fringe garden]

whats the whole output, the error code doesnt really tell us anything apart from that it didnt work

i dont see any issues just reading start.ps1

[ruby pagoda]

I don’t know what to do, it only shows error code 1 and nothing else.

[fringe garden]

screenshot?

wait nvm i forgot you can install powershell on linux

this is thoroughly cursed lmao

[fringe garden]

i tested the powershell script and it works fine

do you have the correct version of powershell installed? im not to sure on the specifics but i think the script needs a newer version than what windows ships with by default

see the README_WINDOWS.md file in the serverpack zip

[ruby pagoda]

bro

[ruby pagoda]

As soon as I started recording the error on video, it started working… Not the first time this has happened lol.

[fringe garden]

lmao

[ruby pagoda]

Thanks anyway

[fringe garden]

np

[ruby pagoda]

What is the core here?

[fringe garden]

wdym core

[ruby pagoda]

"core" = the main part of the server, the base file (like server.jar) that everything else runs on

[fringe garden]

uh

check what start.sh or start.bat do

[ruby pagoda]

Server.jar is required for hosting(((((((

[fringe garden]

im not too sure

i think its not asctually as simple as just a jar file

and instead forge ships with a massive set of arguments in libraries/net/minecraftforge/forge/1.20.1-47.3.6/ that set up the class path and invokes bootstraplauncher

which is what start.ps1/start.sh starts

doesnt seem like forge ships the server as just a jar file anymore (like they did on 1.12)

and instead give you a run.sh which does what the installer script does if you have it installed

[ruby pagoda]

Then what should I do?

[fringe garden]

ask your host provider if its an mc specific one

idk

[ruby pagoda]

It literally says “Minecraft hosting” there.

[fringe garden]

yeah

ask them about it

[ruby pagoda]

Where can I get tin alloy?

[fringe garden]

read the qb? use jei?
