Stylez 160 Posted October 31, 2012 Report Share Posted October 31, 2012 We're considering using the Feed The Beast modpack for the SMP server instead of a custom pack. We're definitely not sticking with Tekkit and FTB has all of the mods we were planning to use in our custom server setup and they're all Bukkit ports. Here's the current mod list: Buildcraft 3 Railcraft Forestry Steve's carts Portal gun Ender storage Redpower EE3 NEI Extra BiomesXL Tubestuff Secret rooms Greg's lighting Industrialcraft Computer Craft Wireless redstone Mystcraft Rei's Minimap Iron chests Let me know what you guys think! The launcher is available right now but it's not quite ready with all the 1.4 mods. Also there's no server version available yet as far as I know. Edit: I know it's similar to Tekkit, but FTB actually has the mod creators permission to include their mods so we don't have to worry about mods getting pulled. Plus... Forestry!

Gr8ful 55 Posted November 7, 2012 Report Share Posted November 7, 2012 Not to mention as well as finishing the mod list; they plan to port it all to Bukkit. May be a few more weeks until it's labeled "ready". I've had a test server running tonight with myself, Skuddles, and IIV_NATHAN_VII playing. It's going to be a pretty good experience with plenty for everyone. In the latest update, they've added Twilight Forest to the pack. With or without Bukkit, it's going to be a lot of fun. Needless to say, if it isn't ported to Bukkit, a whitelist may be in order. But I'm pretty confident that it will be ported. Link to post Share on other sites

Jasenty 18 Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 Eh yah got a point. Might as well wait, cant be too much longer. And Brian, we'd probably just spawn in a notebook from NEI.

You can escape the poison-like effects by going underground. As you stumble through ages their attributes get added to your notebook. Once you write a stable age using a writing desk and a notebook you won't have instability. Although writing a stable age can be tricky. I'm not sure how we're going to deal with this on the server, but like Jasenty said we may just have notebooks that are pre-filled for making ages because I don't want everyone to clog the server with hundreds of unused ages. I think we can limit ages but at the same time I don't think you can remove your ages and it takes quite a few ages to get useful symbols for writing a good custom age.

Jasenty 18 Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 Stylez, just spawn in a Notebook from NEI. It comes with all the symbols pre-discovered. And from there, just practice good world making skills. By this, only choose things you think you'll need. Dont choose extra biomes than what your biome controller can hold. Dont throw in those symbols like Extra Ores, those are guaranteed to cause instability. And when you first visit your newly created age, go back, and look at the Book. If there are new symbols you didnt add, more than likely it has instability. Link to post Share on other sites
Gizmo 11 Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 it works!!!! awesome nice one!! There was an issue with the mac launcher not downloading the minecraft files.. It got fixed in beta version 3.1 though TheBrian666 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Stylez 160 Posted November 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 FTB is launched but unfortunately their Bukkit developer bailed (due to lack of help from Bukkit) so FTB does not have Bukkit support on the server which is sort of a big deal. That means no Bukkit plugins (permissions, protections, rollbacks, etc etc). They weren't using Bukkit ported mods they were using a Bukkit plugin for Forge which is a brand new way of doing things. So, we may have to put a custom Bukkit build together instead of using FTB because running a vanilla server isn't feasible for a public server. TheBrian666 and Gr8ful 2 Link to post Share on other sites
Gr8ful 55 Posted November 10, 2012 Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 That sounds fine with me. You working on putting ported mods together yet? Link to post Share on other sites
Stylez 160 Posted November 10, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 10, 2012 (edited) I'm doing a little reading here and it seems that Forge mod Bukkit ports for all intents and purposes seem dead (I'm only on the first page of that thread). So this leaves us with running a whitelisted FTB server which would pretty much be vanilla with no protection or admin plugins, permissions, etc. Then we have to cross our fingers and hope that people get to writing Bukkit-like server management plugins for "vanilla Forge". I'm gonna keep researching and see how plausible that is - so far I know that DynMap (the Bukkit mapping plugin) has been ported to run on Forge so that gives me hope. But yeah, basically how Forge uses a new univeral SSP/SMP single build, Bukkit does not and makes them largely incompatible. Thus each time Forge or Bukkit is updated requires a shit ton of work to re-port mods. At least that's what I'm gathering from the situation. CPW was trying to make Bukkit a plugin for Forge but that project is now dead because it's too much work when Bukkit gets updated and they won't help him out with the porting. Edit: Here are some Forge server mods... Edited November 10, 2012 by Stylez Added link to server mods Link to post Share on other sites

Stylez 160 Posted November 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted November 15, 2012 ??? WHAT WHY ?? If you're talking about the 1.2.5 stuff it's just so you can play the original FTB map while waiting for the new stuff to be updated and released. FTB launcher is a lot like MutliMC where you can have multiple instances of Minecraft at the same time. In other news, there is a port of the Bukkit "Essentials" mod being created for Forge - "ForgeEssentials." I don't really have any info other than what I saw on IRC so no ETA - we'll whitelist for now if RP2 ever gets updated. All the configs are there for RP2 so I'm no so concerned about block ID conflicts anymore but I almost think it's a deal breaker to not have RP2 worldgen in the overworld.

The latest versions of Forge actually fix that bug since Mojang can't. lol The fact that the bug is still there in 1.4.5 means we'll see a 1.4.6... or is 1.4.5 even out?

I'll re-evaluate when RP2 comes out and FTB is updated and stabilized to the point they're not removing mods from the pack and corrupting worlds. Also hoping to see more Bukkit-like mods ported to Forge. I'm also working on projects in Second Life and don't have time to devote to a finnicky SMP server right now.

Jasenty 18 Posted December 13, 2012 Report Share Posted December 13, 2012 Elo doesnt talk. She telepathically communicated this message to Slow and he posted it for everyone to see. Elo is mute, across the board, online and offline. Link to post Share on other sites
Humbleness51 1 Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 I dont see the need really to switch to ftb i mean it doesnt even have equivalent exchange and i dont think tekkit is going to be shut down by the modders any time soon because of the attention that it has brung to the individual mods. It doesnt even have optifine and again, equivalent exchange is a huge deal (at least to me) Link to post Share on other sites
Jasenty 18 Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 EE wouldnt be on this server considering the theme of what Stylez is going for. FTB has mods that are constantly being updated by mod authors/devs. I swear, everytime I log into the FTB launcher, there is an update. When I logged into Tekkit, there was no update. There hasnt been an update for it in months. Therefor, the wiser option to chose is FTB. If you want EE and TC2, try the mod pack in the launcher itself called Magic World or something.

Humbleness51 1 Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 Well i guess it would be nice to try something new considering ive done pretty much everything in technic so far. Link to post Share on other sites
Gr8ful 55 Posted December 14, 2012 Report Share Posted December 14, 2012 The main reason I think we are moving away from Tekkit is the fact that they never had proper permissions from the mod authors to use their mods in the pack. FTB has full support of the mod authors and as Jasenty pointed out, FTB seems to consistently update. FTB has several different packs to choose from, including the "Magic" pack which contains Equivalent Exchange as well as other magic type mods; i.e Twilight Forest, Mystcraft, Thaumcraft, etc. Jasenty 1 Link to post Share on other sites
