What mod?

What mod?

Explain this.

Toxicjungle serb never
What are you trying to accomplish?

...

I keep wanting to get into tech mods but I keep losing interest in the early game.

What do.

Force yourself to play for the whole hour it takes to get to end-game with mods tech mods you adhd bastard

Either gather a shitton of prime materials early on, build something nice so you hesitate when you want to delete that world orskip early game

That looks super comfy

Not him, but the first one's Abyssalcraft.

>Abyssalcraft
Is the 1.7.10 version any good?

Deleet this NOW

t. Not Reika

Wait what mod adds the great old ones?

What do you mean what mod?
Building a canal so I don't have to go around that peninsula every time.
lol there are a ton of ducks around that part. Even more now because I keep throwing their eggs around.

What mod is the pump and pipes from?

looks like IE pump and pipes
Buildcraft Flood Gate

>pumps
Buildcraft, Thermal Expansion
>pipes
Immersive Engineering

I've only played it on 1.10.2. I think there is a 1.7.10 version, just taking a look through the Curse comments to see if-
>1.7 support ended 9 months ago. - Shinoow, Mar 14 2017
well then.

...

what mod?

That's why I'm asking if it's good. No idea what's been added since then.

Are there any (good) finite water mods for 1.7.10?

are there any texturepacks that would mesh well with faithful32? I wanna keep close to vanilla but I really don't like some of the textures (water, lava, most items,)

...

Briggly benis skies 4

>Dragondildolution
>JABBA
>Blood Magic

Short answer is that a ton has been added. There was a lot of stuff that was very bare-bones even in the 1.10.2 ver when I was using it about a year ago. I saw huge changes coming in during my world's run, Abyssal Wasteland had a complete revamp, new mechanics, etc. If 1.7.10's not gonna have any of that, I'm not sure I'd want to bother with it when there's so much other good stuff for 1.7.10.

Most populated server where i can be a jew and trade items with other players?

there are also chemtrails, swastigas and many words in the sky

Holy shit it's been so long since I last used Highlands that I completely forgot about how it changes oregen a bit for a few biomes. Best biome mod.

enjoyo

>that swastika

1.7.10 mods for more interesting livestock/animal husbandry/herding?

Hey /mcg/, I've finally accepted that I really only enjoy the building aspect of this game, using it as a glorified voxel editor. Since MC isn't very well suited to this, what with its general lack of blocks and creative mode's lack of large-scale editing tools (world edit + voxelsniper is pretty much required if you want to do any kind of terrain sculpting), I was wondering if there were any games / programs better for just building a voxel world. Should I just learn some generic 3D modeling software?

you could try asking /agdg/, they should have resources for learning level design

Realistic Livestock mod
Better Builder Wand, World Edit, Conquest is a great mod for building medieval things.

how could I go about making the villagers from mca spawn in their own villages? For personal reasons, I don't want them to replace vanilla villagers,

>For personal reasons, I don't want them to replace vanilla villagers,

Please tell. MCA villagers do the same shit vanilla villagers do.

I just like the idea of having multiple species having their own villages. I don't know, just makes it more cozy for me.

I get better FPS with RTG and Quark's realistic terrain option. Is there something inefficient about vanilla terrain generation?

Have you checked the configs?

Yeah, there's an option to not replace villagers, but none to actually spawn in their own villages.

>Realistic Livestock mod
As solid as the concept is, it seems like it's run by complete morons. How stable is it?

Is there a mod for 1.12.2 that I can install and use to disable swamp biomes?

das rayciss

Just try it

>just try it
>15 hours in you get a world corrupting bug

>Not having backups
It's still in development so don't expect much but it does seem to work ok for me at least. If you are not convinced then just don't try it.

>It's still in development so don't expect much but it does seem to work ok for me at least.
You could have just said that instead of being a smarmy cunt.

I like being a smarmy cunt to people that want to be spoonfed so hard.

>Asking if anyone has had trouble with a mod is asking to be spoonfed
Are you actually retarded, or just pretending?

You are the one that thinks saying you to try things yourself is somehow being a smarmy cunt

>rain keeps cucking my comfy ecofriendly solar power system

>implying you aren't destroying the environment with your lithium mining and silicon refining

I want to go the other way. Any suggestions for cartoonishly evil Captain Planet villain tier energy generation? NuclearCraft obviously. I've also found an "Ecology Mod" that creates pollution but it's memeversion only.

holy shit Unity I love you but what in the loving fuck is up with your textures for the 1.8 stones how did you manage to make them look even worse

When the fuck is Flaxbeard's Steampowered getting updated? REEEEEEEEEEEEEE

Is there any way to edit the Recurrent Complex structures as text files or something? Because that's why I like Ruins so much.

ok what's the hottest modpack everyones playing rn? QUICK IM BORED AAAAAAAAA

How "unkosher" is it to remake dead mods?

I want to have a mod like Cogs of the Machine or something in 1.10.2 with immersive engineering and shit ( 9minecraft.net/cogs-of-the-machine-mod/ ) but both this and Flaxbeard's Steam Powered Mod are fucking dead

fuck you mekanism you would have fit in my pack's progression perfectly but FUCKING FORGE MULTIBLOAT

There is a reason they're both dead. Tech mods are a nightmare to make.

>old versions of 1.7.10 dragonapi and rotarycraft aren't publicly available to test if my performance issues are a recent phenomenon
why

How about you don't play the furry MAWPC shit then?

I've played a lot of the typical tech shit and rotarycraft just looks interesting and unique to me.

Just play Immersive Engineering

That's part of the typical tech shit I mentioned.

>rotarycraft
>MAWPC
Okay I get that you don't like Reika, but don't be fucking retarded.

>all the best stuff from Immersive Engineering has been added in versions for Minecraft 1.8 and later
>Better with Mods starts at 1.9
>the good Thaumcraft, Flaxbeard's and a bunch of other shit are 1.7.10 only

REEEEEEEEE

Holy shit Tinkers' Defense is bloated as shit and this guy's code is fucking awful. It's gonna take ages to clean this mess up.

I wish that TiCon didn't make a lot of tools obsolete, like the Immersive Engineering drill being made basically useless because hammers exist, and all other mod's methods of ore duplication not worth using because the smeltry does it basically for free

How crazy would it be to make a modpack without TiCon?

You could always just gut out the parts of TCon you don't like with minetweaker.

>How crazy would it be to make a modpack without TiCon?
Not at all, I'm currently playing without it and I'm having fun.

what is that huge dam-looking thing? looks neat as hell

I'm literally working on Toxic Jungle Serb atm. Sorry im like the slowest human bean on earth. If I want to change the recipe of something with Crafttweaker, do i need to first subtract the original recipe and then add the new recipe? Or will adding the new just automatically override the old?

Still looking for a modder to finish my abandoned simple addon blocks for TJSerb, though I haven't stooped to reddit, I probably should.

Also acquainting myself closer with actual Immersive Engineering mechanics so I can more closely balance things, as I realized earlier this week, I don't actually know as much about IE as I thought I did.

Also, does anyone know how I can use a custom sky texture without optifine? Or has optifine been fixed to work with IE pipes so they don't disappear anymore?

>Or will adding the new just automatically override the old?
Nope, you'll just get two recipes for that item so you need to remove the one you don't want first.

...

>How "unkosher" is it to remake dead mods?
Everyone does it. Just don't rip it outright - we really don't meed to clone existing mods 1:1, give it your own touch - and you'll be fine.

Any burning opinions or less-obvious additions I may be overlooking?

Hopper Ducts

I haven't gotten a chance to update the serblist entry, but if you're trying to get on Frogserb, download the latest pack from the etherpad link.

>tfw vanillafag and trying tech mods for the first time

Holy shit how deep can this autism hole go.

dead game

comfy page

What do I build and where do I do it?

im a vanillafag with small builds and im afraid to take the plunge

but i want to engineer HELP

install buildcraft

What blocks do you need? If they're just simple blocks, I could help.

Immersive Engineering has nice aesthethics the machines look great and are easy to setup and has a complete ingame manual

I remember when I first watched Direwolf doing things back on 1.2.5. It was something like HOLY SHIT LOOK AT THAT ORE BEING AUTOMATED and DEAR FUCKING FUCK THAT MACHINE MOVES?!
Oh if only I could have that much enjoyment in life again.

I thought the thread died.

>Recommending "LMAO JUST KEEP STRIP MINING IRON FOR DAYS BEFORE YOU GET ANY COOL SHIT" Engineering as a first tech mod.

STOP.
Pic related is babbies first tech mod.

No, IC2 is babby's first tech mod.
IC2 Classic that is.

This. Literally tubes and cubes.

I would build something like this.

>implying mekanism isn't also tubes and cubes.

youtube.com/watch?v=ALB0PdyEDiU
How much you wanna bet Mojang will do a fraction of the work compared to what these faggots did?

I do like C. Looks pretty classic.

Mek is cubes that look good.
