[Klazam]

can't connect to 5.2.0
is FTB fucking up again?

you need to delete the folder and re download.

backup SSP saves first

[izakthegoomba]

...and config... and screenshots... and minimap folder... and servers.dat... and basically anything else that it's possible you shouldn't just randomly throw away when you want to re-install mods.

I just manually added the latest version of Twilight Forest. That seemed to work for me. Is there anything else that changed?

basically: delete InstaMods, and Mods, and Configs, and CoreMods folders.

thats the safest bet.

BUT KEEP REI'S MINIMAP FOLDER WITHIN MODS FOLDER

Don't touch my crestoate oil.
I'm using that >:(

[Maestro]

Maru, why're you using Creosote?

[Rhinox]

Just took a backup of the /world folder for FTB. Up to 956mb already. Transfer took me almost exactly 15 minutes to the second. No one was on FTB the entire time the transfer was being performed so it should be a good backup.

UGLY IS UGLY.

MAke an effort to make things look presentable if you're building a railway


don't throw down HUNDREDS OF RAILS EVERYWHERE on dirt and call it a day.

Also: I chose the location of my base because it is ridiculously pretty, overlooking a river in an Autumn Forest biome. I haven't built anything overground yet because I want to make sure I get it right when I do build (except that I've laid out where I want to put my farms to make sure they won't ruin the view -- but I still might move them underground and replant that area with Autumn Forest trees.)

Basically what I'm saying is that a railway line is unlikely to be sympathetic to the landscape, so if you want to build one up to my place, perhaps come round the back where it borders onto a Savannah biome and leave the Autumn Forest untouched. Alternatively, just leave me out of it for now, and I'll link myself into the railway network at a later date.

(or we could just use portals and save the trouble of making railways look nice...)

Railways look awesome if done well. I wish we had Traincraft in the Direwolf20 pack because the trains it adds are absolutely amazing! Proper full sized trains you can ride in! I'm just concerned about a railway cutting being carved straight through my front garden without any consultation.

Ok, so back to the vanilla server for a moment: Minecraft 1.5 has just been pushed to the launchers. Presumalby we want to wait until Bukkit/LWC/Optifine/other important stuff is updated, like usual?

1. I am doing my absolute best to not touch the landscape in any way, and if you look at the (unfinished) line leading from M's to izak and further it takes some crazy paths because of it.
2. I don't yet have a waypoint at your location so idk where you live.
3 I can leave you to connect to it at some later point if you want.

Do me a favor and (you and or clammy) hold off doing anything within my area. I'm ok with the rail leading up to my area (once it looks better) but any rail inside the area I consider my "compound" I'd like to handle myself eventually when I get to that point.

I made a couple pictures from the dynmap just to point out what I mean.

My general area in relation to spawn:


Zoomed in. Right now my house/bed is on the small island to the left. The triangle shape enclosure to the right is the start of my main base where I will build all my primary farms and machines and what not. I plan to expand to the right into the forest indefinitely as needed. On the coast just above my small house island I have so far planned to build my warehouse there. I may change my mind and incorporate it into my base structure but I haven't made up my mind yet. Basically, I'm happy if you guys just terminate the rail at the pink dot on the map (up on the cliff is fine for now, no need to bridge over the road to ground level), and I'll work on if/how to interconnect my individual base structures from there. Based on the dirt pillar near where I'm planning my warehouse I think you guys are intending to bridge over my bay. Please don't I'm really looking forward to developing that whole bay area myself as part of my base.


Thanks guys!

Maru, I flat-out refused to play with that eye-sore of a railroad, and as I said on IRC, I subsequently destroyed all parts of it near my/tasty/Klazam's house. It looked SO BAD that there was no way you'd be able to make it look decent without completely redoing it anyway - you carved a hole through MY hill, threw down rails where I'M planning having my Thaumlab, built a 1 block DIRT BRIDGE over Tasty's river valley, and the attempt at an overpass by mist's house was a failure.

Do it right the first time or don't do it at all - and I don't want ANY of it near my house anyway

YOU don't know where I'm going to build near my house because even I'm not sure yet, as soon as I get my basement figured out (and hopefully my lag/crash issues as well) I'll be deciding that, so please do what Rhinox says for anybody who asks - and that would include me

AND I MIGHT ADD I destroyed the parts that went near Spawn too, izak would've had a conniption

please don't do that again without it being fixed/prettified before anybody else sees it

better planning would be recommended to - you took neither the fastest nor the smartest route to each destination so it was obvious you were just slapping down rails

I didn't touch anything past mist's house or in the immediate area of the bridge the Clammy started
(WHICH BY THE WAY, did NOT require a Gravichestplate - at least if we're talking about the same place. it's like 5 blocks above a river past my house near a Fir Forest...?)

this p much sums up why i keep to myself. Anyways I have a double-chest full of LEGIT rails if anyone feels like doing something that won't get yelled at.

[Maruchan]

better yet i'll just trash it and we can all use portals from the portal hub since they are faster anyways.

if anyone wants a free chest of rails for personal use PM me

THATS how all of the railroad was going to look like. things like this, beautifully built. and then along the route to far away places he had ideas for like little abandoned mining settlements on the side of a mountain with a cart on a redpower circuit going around a loop of track back and forth.

So yes, when I made it it looked ugly, because I have 0 creative sense and everything I have ever made relatively decent in minecraft has been a copy or a collaboration of a bunch of other designs, so of course my basic concept looked ugly as fuck. I was going to get clammy to make it all look good.

It would be worth looking at the railcraft posts. They're intended for railway supports and the way they join together is pretty cool. The railcraft concrete blocks work well with the stone posts too.

that requires freetime. i spent sleeptime throwing down rails instead of sleeping.
