Assuming that is what you are supposed to do, some recipes will require certain conditions

like an obelisk nearby; can't remember if time of day affects it or not;

to be created in the infuser. If none exists, I recall it pulling in vis, but not getting anywhere, with the vis vanishing with a hissing noise.

There is no condition like that for the arcane furnace.

Well I'm confused now, because

I put a fire crystal, a furnace, and an iron block into the infuser. I tried placing the infuser both directly next to the crucible, and via pipes, and the vis flowed to the infuser, and the crucible was quite full. I don't get why I couldn't make an arcane furnace. This was on the second to latest technic pack.

AFAIK recipe is wrong, it uses an iron bar, not a block.

They may have changed it to a block for later versions, but the one you're using probably needs a bar. Haven't tried making one yet in 1.2.5.

Nope, the recipe is a block like he says (at least when I did it earlier this version and the last version), its possible that you are using a old version, and thus the recipe is incorrect, but if so, the vis shouldn't start flowing.

Yes, that's what I said.

Well the yogbox has thaumcraft 2, so I'm good. I have a question though. I dug a mineshaft, and am finding nothing but tainted crystals. Is that a sign that I should get out of there? That the air is already filled with taint?

And do crystals suck vis/taint out of the air? Will growing tain crystals and breaking them suck the taint out of the air?

[Seriyu]

I believe vis crystals encourage natural growth of Vis in the local area, so I would think Taint crystals encourage natural growth of taint. With that said haivng a single taint crystal growing in your crystal farm probably won't turn your home into a hideous purple tumor, especially if you have a bunch of other crystals in it.

Also even though you're finding a ton of taint crystals, chances are there are even more non taint crystals hanging around in the chunk. It's hard to say anything for sure, but I would bet you're probably safe for now.

[Micro102]

Hrm, I thought that crystals grew by feeding off vis and resupplied it when it was getting low.

[lemon10]

Yeah, vis/taint crystals make more vis/taint in the area.
However the amount is pretty unnoticeable (unless you are making a massive crystal farm probably).

As for taint, its not really a threat even if you are in it (and even then only if its a massive patch), it can create some rather dangerous monsters if you don't have armor on or lack weapons, but its really not that bad.

Aaaaarg even the yogbox version of thaumcraft 2 isn't letting me make an arcane enchanter. I suck at and hate uploading pics so I will just explain it.

Crucible with plenty of vis in it, next to the infuser, with a fiery vis crystal, a block of iron, and a furnace.

I have also tried connecting the infuser to a vis tank full of vis, and via pipe. The vis was flowing through the pipe and wasn't blocked up with taint.

Someone help!

you have researched the thaumic enchanter right?

[Micro102]

I was told it didn't need to be researched.

   I have now uploaded my fifth video for my current Minecraft lets play. I don't know if the next video will be up in the next few days though seeing as I am now in the last week of this semester of college so exams are the disease and studying is my cure.

Video is here

[lemon10]

The arcane furnace (what he is probably talking about since he was talking about it a page or so ago) doesn't need to be researched.

The thaumic enchanter does.

Micro: Sorry about you sucking at uploading screenshots, but it sounds like that is the only way we will be able to figure out what your problem is, since it sounds like you are doing nearly everything right (but you probably have a single thing wrong).

[Micro102]

Well I just successfully made enchanted wood, so everything is connected correctly. Since the furnace + iron block + fiery crystal isn't working I guess I'm just going to have to cheat in an arcane furnace/enchanter.

Ok the recipe is an iron ingot, not a block. I don't know what that didn't work the first time I tried it, or why none of the technic mods are fully updated with thaumcraft 2, but problem solved!

I was playing Yogbox too. It uses Thaumcraft 2, but not the latest version (2.0.2 which is the version compatible with Minecraft 1.2.3) which uses an iron bar. The latest is 2.1.3b and it requires an iron block.

I've since switched to Minecraft with the mods manually downloaded and added via MultiMC. I think some mods are holding Yogbox back, such as MineColony.

EDIT: Why doesn't anybody listen to me...?

[Corai]

UCreepingBro? Is epic. Updated to the most recent as well. I loved mass-genociding Steves with my creeper-armies.

[Seriyu]

Thaumcraft just has a great setting, I've gotta say. I'm not sure how, what with not ext or plot or anything but every time I load it up it feels wrong if I don't make a huge wizard tower, preferably with pipes sticking out of it and winding between floors wildly.

EDIT: Wow, I found diamonds before I found coal in this world. Thank you strategically placed ravine.

EDIT2: Oh hey, mine diamond, creeper slides in on a water flow and explodes, which sends everything I own into the lava nearby. WELP.

I'm using this battle tower as my base..... If I only knew to not kill the boss with all those items still in the chests
