Discussion on Potential YC Modpack

Cool! But the server is just lame-old survival, so make it more "Touhou-esque."

I want this modpack

But FTB does not like me

[Zero]

Hello!
Have you tried using the Quiverbow mod? It adds various guns with .... interesting ammo like potatoes, seeds, gold (a certain shrine maiden would love this, and besides, more uses for gold!) and whatnot.
And, it adds no new blocks/mobs! Just bits and parts from vanilla blocks.

[Redleaf64]

Yeah, thats what I was worried about. It doesn't seem to update.

[Remilia Scarlet]

Latest version is for 1.5 so we wouldn't have been able to include it anyway :P

[Redleaf64]

I suddenly realized I have forgotten to recommend the most important mod ever... MOB TALKER!

[Remilia Scarlet]

I'll test it myself once I get home. If all goes well, I'll load it in the next version of the pack.

I'm assuming FTB has a either a modified forge or are extending forge to either streamline/prioritize some of the loading mechanics. They likely throw in some JVM args as well so Java doesn't crumple under the 100+ mods most of the packs have lol

I tested it and sure, it makes a HUGE difference. Even NEI recipe lookup is faster. My guess is that FTB does this automatically. I'd dafinetively say that you could add those mods now. *wink wink*

[WriggleRid3r]

Ok good cuz they're too useful for me to give up ^^;;

ik but I prefer using mb.

Wriggle, trust me it's not idconflicts. Also even if it were, forge gives you a list of idconflicts.

For those having random crashes and whatnot even after adding

-Xms1024M -Xmx2048M

try also adding

-XX:MaxPermSize=128M

as well to the list of JVM arguments. That seemed to cure my random crashes pretty nicely. (For those curious, it just gives Java more space to store "permanent" stuff that are never deallocated. "PermSize"="Permanent Size")

Instead of using 1024M and 2046M, you can just use 1G and 2G.

[WriggleRid3r]

There might be block id collision between Advanced Machine and other mods. If they do collide and overlap, the game will crash, so to not let that happen we might need to go to config and change the four advanced machine block id into something else

[Remilia Scarlet]

Very possible, actually. Seems increasing permsize helps with packs that have a lot of mods as well (which makes sense when you think about it)


I'll probably release an updated version maybe next week once we get more testing done.

@Remi

So hat's what PermSize is, maybe I can finally get rid of those TE crashes.
