Why can't we just use Vanilla tools?

Eh, fine I can enable them. I don't understand the problem with TC tools but I'm no tyrant and I understand that new things are scary I guess.

I don't mind them myself, However you decide wether you wish to enforce that rule or not.
Perhaps enabling the first tier of vanilla tools, then make it harder to get metal tools?
Also, i realized.. with TC, you could make cactus tools?

Edit: Is gregtech going to be in? If so, are you going to be a troll and enable the recipes, but not the new items?

Ye gods, I sure hope not.
besides, isn't that a tech-based mod?

[forsaken1111]

OK, count me back in.

TC really isn't that bad. It's a pain for the first half-hour or so, but then you can set up your stations and learn how to use it.

Not even a half hour. While testing I popped in in survival mode and made all of the required tool stations within 10 minutes, had a set of bone/flint tools within 30.

But its fine, I've re-enabled them. Doing some final test work then I have to update the configs in the client pack.

I don't use them because I dislike them and want them to die in a fire.

Right but why do you dislike them? In most ways they're exactly the same as vanilla but have a better repair system. Having vanilla tools fucks up the planned tier progression I had in. In fact I'm just removing TC if we're enabling vanilla tools as it serves no real purpose.

Now I have to know why. Is it because they're overpowered, you don't like the sprites, or what?

They don't mesh well with the style of the techmod/techy magic mod culture set up. They come straight out of an adventure game, and I don't like how they fit in. In the name of progression, I would use them anyway, though.

I enjoy TC because I can make a flint knife with a bone handle within the first day of playing and it makes a very good weapon and can be thrown.

Its not really a big deal though. I've made the change, TC is out. I'm not forcing people to play with mods they hate that much. Almost done now.

D:
whyyyy?

With that said, I guess I can accept a game without TC.. :/
Also, I think it's only a small minority of people who hate it.. I think..

Is dartcraft in? It's 50/50 tech/magic. It's fairly advanced for magic, but some of the stuff with it is downright magical. See: Speed 8 Drills.

[Elephant Parade]

Noooo! I love TC! Oh well. Why not leave it in? People don't have to use it.

[forsaken1111]

Okay how about I leave TC in with default settings and let you decide which tools to use? It still screws up my planned tiers but I can work around it.

God no. I thought about it but dartcraft is so fucking unbalanced its unbelievable when there are no other tech mods. Maybe (long maybe) later on when we unlock some of the magical mods and such, but definitely not from the start.

You could try to restrict what tools/weapons to use in the first few tiers?

The first challenge will restrict you all to nonmetal tools. In fact you can't use metal in crafting for any reason. The ONLY exception to this is finding a metal tool already made in a dungeon chest or something. You can use anything you find from exploring.

Again this is on the honor system. Don't cheat.

Hang on guys, some last minute issues with mismatched IDs. If you're one of the few who grabbed the link already you'll need to redownload once I post that its ready.

[Mephisto]

The pack also doesn't have Biomes O Plenty in it. I copied it from the other server's configs.

It does now. You guys grabbed it early. Which was my fault really.

Okay, now its ready. Link is below in the install instructions.

Rules:
1. Do not be a dick. Seriously. Behave yourselves. This is a cooperative server. PVP will be disabled. The focus here is to build stuff together and cooperate, explore, etc.
2. Do not mess with someone else's stuff without permission. This includes something they are building, or chests in their house.
3. You must live in the city with everyone else. Make yourself a house or something. Don't run several thousand blocks away and play like a hermit. You may as well be in singleplayer if you're doing that.
4. Abide by the challenges and restrictions.

This server is based around light roleplaying and mutual cooperation. At the start, we will essentially be playing vanilla Minecraft with a few tweaks and light mods added. I will post various goals for us to achieve, and as these goals are reached I will unlock or add new mods and change various rules. We will be eventually unlocking a variety of magic based mods and challenges will revolve around building a large sprawling town/city.

Current Challenge: Hold Back the Night!

You've arrived in a hostile world and need a place to settle. Choose your location carefully as this will be your home from here on out.

Restrictions: You may not use metals for crafting in any way. No metal tools. Do not build a smeltery. No metal buckets (I added clay buckets for a reason!) If you build a furnace, you can only use it for cooking food and charcoal.

You may use any items you find from exploration, including metal tools, but you may not craft them.

Requirements to progress:

Choose a site.
Build a camp fire.
Build at least 3 dwellings around the camp fire, each with a bedroom and living room.
Have enough beds to allow everyone to sleep.
Establish a stockpile chest with 10 units of edible food per person. (Edible food is non-raw non-rotten meat or any sort of food crop such as apples or potatoes)

Spoiler: RPCraft Install Instructions (click to show/hide)

5. Click Play

This will download and install mineCraft, usually to the C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\.mineCraft folder. Once this is done and you are on the mineCraft's main menu, exit the game and close the launcher. (If you want it installed somewhere else, you can change that in the profile before clicking play)

6. Navigate to the C:\Users\USERNAME\AppData\Roaming\.mineCraft folder. Easiest way to do this is to type %appdata% in the run programs window, or into the address bar above any explorer window.
7. Download the client pack here: http://bit.ly/19sLHWq

Inside you should find several folders and a servers.dat file

8. Extract all files/folders in the client pack to the .mineCraft folder. If asked whether you want to overwrite files, say yes.
9. Run the mineCraft.exe launcher again.
10. In the bottom left where it says your username, click Edit Profile
11. Next to "Use Version:" is a dropdown. Click it and choose "Release 1.6.2-Forge9.10.1.871" then save the profile. (It may be at the bottom of the list)
12. Click Play
13. Click Multiplayer
14. Click RPCraft server (should already be added, if not the address is muse.dyndns.tv:25562)
15. Click Join Server
