SPEAKING OF 5.1 PACKS!
Direwolf just made his go live.

To get it, go to FTB launcher, private packs, then code Direwolf20_1_5.

Aren't we at 1.6?

[frostshotgg]

1.6 just came out a couple weeks ago unless my sense of time is gone. Almost nothing is updated.

[frostshotgg]

It was a trick. A scheme, a ruse, a flimflam. A lie, a deceit, a misnomer. A bluff, a cheat, a con. A feint, a hoax, a fraud. A plot and a ploy, a subterfuge and a swindle, an illusion and an invention.

I was so tempted to use a thesaurus there.

So I've been gifted Minecraft lately (tyvm Kagus.) and am wondering..

Are all the mods listed in the OP workable in the latest (1.6.5 I think?) version?

[frostshotgg]

Lord no. In fact, you'd be hard pressed to find more than 5 or so.

[forsaken1111]

Forge Multipart is cool.

If you want a good modpack and don't want to spend days juggling mods around to make them all work like I do (and I blame my goddamn desire to mod everything... it makes me spend more time juggling mods than actually playing) then check this modpack: http://www.feed-the-beast.com/

P.S. Huh, it looks like it is for 1.5.2... Sorry.

Just found out that the chunk loading modules of MiscPeripherals don't work as wireless routers any more which has non-trivially broken a load of my turtle programs.

[Skyrunner]

Do immibis's dimensional anchors or Railcraft's chunk loaders work?

[MagmaMcFry]

I guess it would still break those programs, since it looks like Vattic needs those turtles to keep themselves loaded while moving.

[Vattic]

I have Railcraft installed, but it's chunk loaders will only be so useful. Previously the chunk loading modules for turtles also functioned as wireless routers. A few of my programs rely on the turtle being able to both load chunks and use gps. I can write gps use out, but I'm not confident about it being able to carry on after server restarts and similar. I might be able to replace the chunk loader with a modem and get another turtle with chunk loader to follow it around, but once again it makes it less fail safe.

Had a lot of fun playing a base-building Capture The Flag game, using the new Torch Levers mod, though it's more of a "Tools To Build Clever Traps/Dungeons/Mechanisms" mod at this point:

Linko: Torch Levers Mod [MC 1.6.2] [Forge]

Redstone Spike Traps that have debilitating effects, Illusion Blocks that you can phase through, and advanced redstone doodads with clever and unique new functions: Redstone Levers that act as a T-Flip-Flop (they alternate when the block they're on is powered), Redstone Buttons that emit a 1-tick pulse either when pressed or the block they're on is powered, disguised bookcase and brick buttons, and of course the titular Torch Lever (It's a lever, but it looks like a torch).

We built bases in creative mode in 5 minute segments between each round, when we entered into Adventure Mode and tried to storm the enemy base, and get their flag back to our own. By the end of the game, we had a map full of hidden spike pits, bridges with illusionary pitfalls, false entrances, hidden doors, automated arrow traps, redstone combination locks, and all sorts of stuff, made from simple parts. It was crazy fun.

I've spent ages searching, but I can't find any nice FTB Direwolf20 1.5.2 servers. Can anyone recommend a good server? Preferably one without tons of banned items or ridiculously small griefprotection claim sizes.

[Deon]

I'm pretty sure that the latest Direwolf20 build has quite a few errors, they even mentioned it in news.

[Sarzael]

What the hell? The forums ate my post and only left Wha out of the original message! Wordivore forums are evil!

Sooo, second attempt:
You know what would be cool? Dwarf Fortress mod.
The idea would be that when you for example click to mine something, you dont mine it, but send one of your seven starting dwarves who has a pickaxe to mine it. You would have a menu from where you can choose the different designations, and you would be able to look at NPCs and enable/disable their labors.

But, even though this would be cool, it would be a hellish work, since:
A) Npcs, there are tons of em.
B) Random stuff generator, i dont think will be easy.
C) Would be incompatible with pretty much everything due to changes.
