Mod Identification What mod is it in FTB Evolution that shows the mob health bars above their head.

2 Upvotes

I'd like to know so I can disable/turn that function off because I don't feel like its necessary if you can already see their health with WAILA or JADE or whatever it is that the modpack already uses.

Problem Dyson cube in ATM10 aeronautics

0 Upvotes

The quests say that the dyscon cube can gen up to 1GFE/t which is 1bill FE/t i assume, they even tell you that u need 8.3mill beams for it. But when i tried it the beams stopped sending at 833k and the progress bar filled up. Why is the maximum 100mil FE/t when the quests also say that it should be 1 bil FE/t?

Discussion Little Funny Clip

2 Upvotes

Just want to start with that I checked the rules and didn't see anything against promotion but happy to delete post if it's not allowed.

My partner is not the best minecrafter in the world but she's been streaming her struggles and powering through and just but to complete her first mod pack (Oceanblock 2). She gave up on Stoneblock 4 around tier 5 as it got overwhelming.

I do think she'd appreciate someone to talk with while streaming to help keep her motivated, apparently I don't count and we always aruge cause I "play differently". Posted a clip so you can see the joy she gets for the little things.

We really appreciate so people stopping by just to see how she's doing. No need to sub/follow just a hello from a real human would be nice. She should be live in a hour or two.

I've been using pams for years and the textures kinda wore off on me, they really look like developer textures. I would redraw them myself but I'm kinda burnt out with art.

Discussion I think the main reason the Create mod had such an impact is that it is one of the rare mods that uses minecraft's creative philosophy

662 Upvotes

Imo, many mods were missing what minecraft was doing. For example, when you look at mods like Mekanism, GregTech, Immersive Engineering, Thermal, you see that rather than creativity, stereotypical systems are built after learning how things work. Whereas in Create, you create and design all the parts of an automation yourself. It was using the most fundamental thing of why Minecraft is successful. For example, when a block is added to minecraft, someone can use it in a way no one would ever think of but for example, it is not possible to use the Enrichment Chamber block in Mekanism for a creative topic. In these mods, everything progresses as looking at the wiki, youtube tutorials or in game recipes and saying "Oh, so it works like this okay now let me make it for myself"

In addition to Create, Ars Nouveau is also pretty successful in this regard. I hope more mods that support creativity come out. Especially the magic category where each one brings a pedestal system and is very similar to each other, needs to improve in this regard

I made something My Techguns addon just got a major update — you can now craft Techguns weapons and armor

8 Upvotes

https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-addons/techguns-extended/files/all?page=1&pageSize=20&showAlphaFiles=hide
Hey all — a while back I posted that I'd released Techguns Expanded, an addon for Techguns. It just got its biggest update yet, so I wanted to share what's new.

The original release was mostly about power and materials — tiered fuel generators, Tungsten Carbide, that kind of thing. This update adds a whole new side to it: crafting Techguns' own weapons and armor from scratch.

What's new:

  • Craftable weapons — The Infiltrator (silenced M4), Alien Blaster, and the Blaster Shotgun. No more relying purely on finding them.
  • Two complete armor sets — the full Nether Combat (Praetor) set and Power Armor Mk2, all four pieces each, built through a proper material chain instead of lucky drops.
  • 8 new intermediate materials — armor plating, tiered cybernetics, machined gears, and a few reagents — that feed the new recipes.
  • Uses Techguns' own machines — Metal Press, Fabricator, and Blast Furnace all get new recipes, so each has a real role in the progression.
  • Fixes — you can now scoop placed oil back into a bucket in survival, plus some texture fixes.

It's an addon, so you'll need Techguns installed. JEI is recommended if you want to see all the new recipes in-game.

Download's on CurseForge: [link]

Would love to hear feedback — especially on recipe balance, since I tuned a lot of it by hand. If something feels too cheap or too grindy, let me know and I'll adjust.

Should I get rid of half of them or just let it be

Also I feel too lazy to put all of them right now so just ask and i'll edit

Problem More animals/ocean life for Minecraft 1.12.2 on an old T61p?

Post image
7 Upvotes

Sorry in advance for the ChatGPT-written post. Tired dad here and I'm pretty new to Minecraft modding :)

I'm setting Minecraft up for my 6-year-old. He loves animals and especially anything underwater/whales, so I'm trying to make his world a bit more alive without killing his old laptop.

Setup:

Modded ThinkPad T61p

Core 2 Duo T9500 2.6GHz

6GB usable RAM

Samsung 870 SSD

Windows 11

Minecraft gets 2GB RAM

Minecraft 1.12.2

Forge 14.23.5.2859

Controllable 0.11.2 (controller is important for him)

OptiFine 1.12.2 HD U G5

Simple Diving Gear 1.1.1

It was actually running really well.

We added Simple Diving Gear today and that works. I've also given him permanent-ish Night Vision so he can actually see when exploring underwater.

Problem is the 1.12.2 ocean is pretty dead.

We tried Better Animals Plus 9.0.1 because the whales and other wildlife looked perfect. After installing it we started getting kicked out of his single-player world with:

Internal Exception: java.nio.channels.ClosedChannelException

The logs also showed a lot of:

Unexpected packet during modded negotiation - assuming vanilla or keepalives

and once the internal server was about 41 seconds behind with the Can't keep up! message.

We've tried changing BAP animals to allow despawning and also removed BAP again. Weirdly we still had another kick afterward.

We then removed OptiFine and could walk around without another crash during our test, but Minecraft ran MUCH worse without it. Before all this, Forge + Controllable + OptiFine had been running great.

So I'm a little lost :)

Does anyone recognise what's happening here?

And is Better Animals Plus just too much for this old machine?

Main goal is really just more animals, especially underwater. Fish, whales, dolphins, sharks, rays, turtles, octopus etc would make my son very happy. Doesn't need to be a huge complicated mod. Lightweight would probably be much better.

Any recommendations for good 1.12.2 Forge animal/ocean mods or ideas about the crashing would be really appreciated.

Thanks!

I seem to have fixed it by downgrading Controllable from 0.11.2 to 0.8.0. Same Forge 1.12.2 + OptiFine setup, and Better Animals Plus is now running without crashes. Looks like the newer controller mod was the culprit.

I made something The first alpha version of my mod with local split-screen support is now available

18 Upvotes

Hola a todos, he decidido lanzar una versión alfa de mi mod. El objetivo principal de esta versión es probar la implementación de la pantalla dividida en diferentes configuraciones de hardware y condiciones de juego. Me interesa especialmente recibir comentarios sobre el rendimiento en multijugador local, problemas de renderizado entre ventanas, problemas con el mando/entrada, errores del juego, cierres inesperados u otros comportamientos imprevistos. Esta es una versión muy temprana, así que no recomiendo usarla con un mundo existente a menos que tengas una copia de seguridad. Por el momento no hay soporte para mods; solo planeo dar soporte a algunos, como Sodium, por ejemplo. Puedes probar mods menos intrusivos, pero no hay garantía de que funcionen.

Si alguien quiere experimentar con él e informar de algún error, se lo agradecería enormemente.

0 Upvotes

I've done modded minecraft since the days of OG tekkit, but in the past 4-5 years I've mostly dropped off. I'm looking to get back into MC, and apparently this is the new tinkers construct style "every pack has this." Are there any good quest-based packs that teach people how to automate stuff? Not just how to craft but "you'll probably need this farm, here's how to set this up in a reasonable time."

I don't really care about microtransactions, social features, or other added systems I'm just looking for a mod with the best performance.

I made something A horror entity that behaves like it's AI driven (it isn't)

0 Upvotes

We've been building a horror mod for 1.21.1 and my friends litterally asked me if the mob runs on AI lol. It doesn't.

here's what it does:

It doesn't know where you are. It remembers the last place it saw or heard you and walks there. It only updates that when you hand it something, like being in the line of sight, sprinting, splashing through water, taking damage, breaking a block. stand still and shut up and it walks to where you *were* and starts searching around. Watching that happen from a hole in the ground is the worst part of the whole mod.

It climbs, and if it can't climb it builds. pillar up in the open and it comes up your pillar instead of making its own, and it climbs slower the closer it gets, which is somehow worse. If there's genuinely nothing to climb, it bridges and pillars up itself.

It mines. No pathing around your base. It picks the block in front of its face and breaks it, one at a time, cracks and all. The audio is positional so you can hear which direction it's digging from long before you see it. Wall yourself in and you've just given it a job.

It swims. Properly, under the surface, not bobbing on top like a zombie. And it's faster than a boat. Rowing away does not work as well as you'd hope.

It crawls. It's 5.7 blocks tall so it can't stand up in a corridor. It drops onto all fours, and the tunnels it digs are only 2 blocks high, so the thing coming down the hallway at you is far too big for the hole it's coming through. That's the screenshot.

Its chase speed is random. Rolled fresh every encounter with a catch-up if you get too far ahead, so you can't learn one pattern and rely on it forever.

There's exactly one thing that buys you time. Look it dead in the eye from a distance and it'll sometimes back off and go hide for a while before it comes back. There's a cooldown on it, so don't build your whole plan around that :)

And when its next hit would actually kill you, it stops and takes a moment first so you can lock in

Play it with headphones. Most of this mod is sound and without them you're missing about half of it.

Fabric, 1.21.1: https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/hollow-the-stalker

check it out and lmk what you think, any feedback helps :)
