Anyone else having issues with Mystcraft?  I just had another crash when traveling to a new world, Minecraft ran out of memory!  Lost my inventory, but I was thoughtful enough to save it via NEI first.
FAKEDIT: NEI didn't remember my inventory :<  Luckily EE makes it almost trivial, so I'll just cheat in my alchemy bag, my klein, and a few fuel thingies to just reproduce it all.

Also: Make that explosive with Equivalent Exchange, combining TNT and Mobius Fuel.  Travel to the nether.  Gather ALL the Nether Ores!  For real, I'm going to make a flying base that drops this crazy TNT now, it's super-productive.

I'm also going to (try to) use Mystcraft to produce a superflat prairie, preferably in eternal noon or dusk, hopefully with some pleasant colored sky/fog/clouds/etc.  Then make a nice vehicle with frames, to simply go along the terrain.  Turns out that muskets are a LOT of fun.  I'm going Wild West Gentleman style now, and gonna build myself a little craft outfitted with equivalent exhcange items that would produce ammo, along with a chest and spare muskets, to repair them during use and use a spare, so you never have to stop killing.

Blunderbusses shred at close range. Suck a lot harder at 5 or more blocks, at least how I could tell.

Muskets are still my favorite though.

I'm trying the SkyBlock survival map with the Technic pack. Plan is, I develop my little floating island into a "hub" and strip-mine alternate Mystcraft Ages for the fancy stuff. True, it's not quite the spirit of the map, but c'mon! A mostly-artificial island floating in an endless void seems like the perfect place to connect worlds together.

The blunderbuss is a shotgun.  Not really, but in game they are.  Fires some 7-8 projectiles in a fairly wide cone.  Reloads a bit faster than a musket, but has exceptionally short range.  It'd be useful against a ghast of a zombie pigman horde.  But in the overworld, a musket will pretty much do you better, especially as you can attach a bayonet.  Cannot figure out how to use a cannon, I expect there's some hotkeys involved.

Also worth noting: Alchemical Bags make excellent crash insurance.
1: Use NEI to save your inventory.
2: Get an alchemical bag, dump all your stuff in it.  All of it.  Except the bag itself, no quantum bagception please.
3: Stash the bag.
4: Use NEI to load your inventory.
5: Go crash the game.
6: When you respawn with no items, find your bag and retrieve all your stuff.

NINJA: In that case, I wouldn't call it the skyblock challenge.  Still an interesting idea, but it's certainly not the challenge :P

I can and have done the challenge on non-modded games :P
This one is just for fun and because it's somewhat thematically appropriate.

   This is one of those "not breaking the rules" moments that exist because the designer did not plan for what you are doing or they would have made a rule.

So it seems I accidentally put my canteen in my wheelbarrow and didn't notice... and then I got really thirsty... so right before going to sleep I go to take a swig from my canteen and... end up snorting a line of low-grade meth.

Really not seeing what the problem is here. As stated, I'm using this map because I like the whole "floating island in an endless void" idea, and I'd still need to follow the challenge up until I get the required materials for the Mystcraft books. I'm intentionally not following the entire challenge because I have other, non-modded saves to do that with.

Have you played the Myst series? Because you have no idea how right you are  :D

I have not, actually. Heard things about it, but the whole pixel-hunt wander around solving puzzles genre doesn't hold much appeal to me.

That was me, using transparent text underneath which explained that I was joking :P

So I started up a new technic world, and this startled me (I haven't kept up with mo'creatures updates).
Spoiler (click to show/hide)
It... seemed to be neutral, though I GTFO when I saw it flapping its wings and flying, though it only moved up and down, not at me.

Also, I thought the new zombie horses were pretty neat.

No, that was the texture. It had red eyes.
