Why am I not surprised...

Anyways FTB seems pretty nice from playing around with it some, but the difficulty of finding information on most of the mod changes right now keeps it from being fully usable on the [H] server for the time being I think.

I would wait until all of the main FTB mods get implemented as well, especially RedPower 2.

Otherwise, then you get missing worldgen and you kinda have to start over.

Yep right now me and zexx are just goofing around in Mystcraft worlds. We're gonna ahve to restrict those pretty heavily.
 
If the lag is my fault I am sorry, I will look at my setup and see if I can figure out what is gunking it up. I do not have any thing moving around any more, well nothing in built craft pipes

is the server down?
 
Performance. Some of them are super laggy it seems like.

My guess would be skyblock realms would be the worst. The video I saw had lots of sand/gravel falling down on those maps from world generation.

It might not be your fault Find. The reason why I mentioned buildcraft pipes is because they have a tendency to get clogged and eject items on to the ground. For this reason the RedPower pneumatic tubes are much much better for item transportation. They don't get clogged and overall are much better for lag purposes. However well used buildcraft pipes won't cause lag any more so than RP tubes.

Most of the lag in tekkit servers seems to come from poorly made or malfunctioning systems that are somehow creating a very large number of entities and not cleaning them up fast enough.
 
FTB would be the better route to go. It's endorsed by all of the mod authors and they are actively working with each other to make sure their mods work together. Tekkit is just a random mix of mods all thrown together by a third party.

Good way seems to be increase stack sizes in filters. Instead of sending 20304 of something one by one send them in 5s/10s or stacks. :D
 
Give who time? FTB isn't planning on working with bukkit cause that's the only reason it has the mods that it does. Bukkit holds tekkit back.
 
I don't know what plugins you guys use (haven't been on the [H]ardCraft server in a loooong time, stopped playing Minecraft altogether awhile back) but I can't really think of much in the way of plugins that you might need in addition to FTB. You've got minimap, waypoints, NEI, cart stuff, etc. Maybe some permissions stuff, but in the future you will be able to easily add/remove mods using the FTB launcher. Basically it seems like it will develop into a unified modding platform for Minecraft. Hell, one or two Mojang employees even play on the ForgeCraft FTB test server.

Personally I'm super excited for the FTB modpack to get a non-beta release. I think I'll start playing again significantly when it comes out.
 
Well we have plugins that disable certain items that could become a problem not just entire mods. The dynmap is a neat feature. /home /spawn /anything almost lol

Any kind of security feature what so ever, gone.

Don't get me wrong I think the pack is cool, hell not many know that as of 1.3.2 ALL the mods have to be SMP compatible. Remember better than wolves mod? The one that a lot of people thought was great but was single player only? yeah that's SMP now too. That's why FTB is a neat pack and why it's a good and bad thing it doesn't support bukkit.

90% of the mods in the pack probably wouldn't be possible if it used bukkit, but since most people didn't host vanilla MC servers, you don't see many if any real admin oriented mods to support said server.
 
I'll agree with you there G1... Until Bukkit gets updated to support certain mods or another security replacement comes along the [H] server is pretty limited in what you guys can put on it.
 
where you been DP? no minecraft love lately?

A week or two ago "the weather" damaged some stuff or something, so the connections been not good. It stays on for short durations in you mess with it, longest it's been on was like an hour or something but usually its 5-15 minutes. Apparently they are fixing it, and are sending some parts or something...

I haven't played anything online for aaages it seems! hopefully they fix it soon...(will just swap ISPs if it takes much longer! :D

The speed ranges from 102kbits/s to 60000 too...:confused: My diamond chests are probably overflowed by now :D

i could go empty them :D

where is your home?
 
:D. I got a job. They are working me a bunch because of the holiday season. We are south of spawn, look for the windmill solar tower.

DGerry is nursing a shoulder injury and he says it hurts him to play any WASD games.

I just realized I've been on this forum almost 12 years.

You can hear it from the other side of the map! :D

Just keep going south until your ears no longer work, then you're about 1 mile from the tower of noise! :p

Change the keys to ESDF? :(:D

Still think we should send a rescue party. How is he going to fend off bears and stuff...
 
Not sure if it's just me but I can't seem to log on to the server.

Some huge long error starting with "Connection Lost" and then "error: java.io.IOException: Server returned HTTP response code: 503 for URL: <this url is outrageously long and won't fit even if I have the game full screen>"

And nevermind, apparently that's a minecraft.net problem. (edit) off to go blow shit up in single player with nukes for the time being then. (/edit)

DP, when your internet gets figured out, we should recreate the sheep farm.

With automation!

it's semi fixed... just the speed is really crappy but disconnects are down to every few hours or so... Hopefully it improves soon. :D
 
I think the lack of players is going to be a continuing problem, unless we want to open the server to the public which is just a recipe for disaster.

Basically almost all of the people who regularly play on the server have reached endgame (myself included) and yes it's much easier to work on large projects but it's less fun because you're basically in creative mode, and most people have their large project that they've either mostly finished or haven't had time to. I have way more red matter than I'll ever need as well, short of building an RM block fortress :D

I still have yet to try FTB but I think that would be the logical progression assuming they can get a final release out and plan to continually update. The current version of EE, even with collectors disabled, still makes it way too easy to progress in the game, and I believe FTB makes a lot of things more difficult which would slow progression and in turn keep players around for longer.
 
Well, like I said before, the new EE looks to be way different and much less overpowered.

I'll probably be interested in playing on the server if/when FTB gets to a stable place in terms of mods and worldgen. Mostly waiting for EE and RedPower right now, maybe Thaumcraft if they end up adding that.
