Made a mistake, the void thaumaturges robes is where I seem to be stuck.
Have made a void metal sword and chestplate, tried scanning. At a loss.
I finally figured it out after a few days of fruitless googling and a lot of standing around headscratching ingame. Seemed to be 2 things, the grinning devil faceplate...pretty positive that was stopping me from getting the eldritch revelation (that was where I was stuck) the other was possibly not enough warp. I used the console command to give myself ridiculous amounts of warp, started getting the really bad events but still no revelation. Took my helmet off, went and fought some guardians and boom.
So my advice is don't craft that grinning devil faceplate, just suck it up and deal with those warp events.
Hey guys, one more question from the Thaumcraft noob.
I can't craft a hungry chest. I've tried every kind of wood trapdoor, and greatwood planks, and the damn thing won't craft. Halp?
Do you have any other mods that make changes to the trapdoors? That might mess with things. Other than that, make sure you've actually completed the research for the hungry chest as ldogsuggested.
So, uh, this is what happens when you dump over 30k of essentia into a crucible and dump the whole thing at once. Anyone care to find where the gold tick marks on the thaumometer display are?
It was so bad at one point that the peaks of the dioptera were solid at the top from being completely maxed out. Not gonna lie it's kinda awesome.
Dragnier - I don't think so?? I'll double check and get back to you guys. But I'm pretty sure I just have TC and things like a minimap mod and other mods that don't affect the game much.

I love all of this. Also, nice try hiding behind the word "magical", I see you there :3
I did this in the nether back in TC 5.0.0. I had a purple hell.
Question, will the new untyped vis be purple, or white like the ballanced shard? Since untyped vis is just magic, would we see the return of praecantatio?

I feel like it would be represented the same way as the meter for an aura totem is filled when you give it a balanced shard: a tube of rainbow.
It would be awesome to have a polar opposite to flux/warp so we could directly combat it and maybe even have two differing paths to "ultimate thaumaturgy" so to speak. If flux/warp is the imbalance of vis, the opposite should be balance. I don't know how that could be handled, but that sounds kind of like where Azanor may have been headed anyway just based on the changes in this iteration of the mod. Of course, I could be reading way too much into it.
However, I'm just glad Azanor is continuing the mod despite all the hurdles thrown in the way. This is by far one of my favorite mods of all time. I think that if the mod continues to develop along the current path and manages to find just the right balance between complexity, resource gathering, ease of use, utility, and "wow" factor from the visual aspects; it will be even more awesome than it currently is.
If I had anything to critique about the current state of the mod, it would be the way resource gathering ramps up super quickly. While there are things to do at various stages of the game, most of the content is towards the end of the mod and focuses on having already gotten through a fair amount of vanilla minecraft first. If there were a way to spread out the content so that it was a somewhat more gradual progression that complimented the vanilla side slightly better, I think that would be something that would help improve the mod in future iterations.
In any case, hats off to you Azanor for creating such an interesting and entertaining mod!
Why limit it to two?
I actually like to have "warp" as an ever present threat, whatever path you take.
Do you mean like having more than two ultimate paths or one? I personally think there should be six different paths for each primal vis type (like messing with the void and eldritch for pertitio which is what we have now, doing things with the nether and demons for ignis, etc.).

I play only with the top notch mods only, which instantly excludes orespawn and lucky blocks.

I agree with your critique, there should be some things you can do at the beginning. The other thing you brought up reminds me of something codebracker said about if there were to be a path all about order it would have something similar to warp but having various different effects (like freezing water, slowing down the world around you, not being able to travel to other dimensions, etc.).

The warp and flux mechanics are Azanor's way of melding Lovecraftian lore into Minecraft. The Eldritch is the Cosmic, knowledge of which is too much for mortal minds to handle and ultimately beaks them. Think of the dungeon as the dream of a Great One.

Flux isn't exactly an "evil" mechanic that needs balanced by a "good" mechanic. Flux is more like a magical pollution. So that means the polar opposite of flux would be the aura in it's natural state.
And warp, well that's not exactly evil by itself as well. Is a madman considered evil simply because his mind doesn't work in the same way as ours do (or in this case, knows more then a mortal should)?
If you really think about it, there's pretty much already a "good" and "evil" mechanic. It's just Thaumcraft only measures the "evil".

Due to my snarky and sarcastic personality I can easily be seen as a jerk. If I've offended you in any way it was likely unintended.
Hey guys, one more question from the Thaumcraft noob.

1. make sure it's in an Arcane Worktable.
2. Use greatwood planks for the actual planks. (though it seems you've done that, so good job)
3. The default trapdoor should be oak.

I was doing all this. Oak trapdoors wouldn't work but I tried every type anyway. Any other suggestions?
Are you using a wand with enough vis to craft it?
Just give us a screenshot.
Stupid question, you do have the research completed right?
Other than what other people have told you to check, that's all I can think.of.

Auric - 250/500 vis wands and both are charged.

Dragnier ended up being right. I had RP Craft installed (totally forgot!) and taking the mod out proved effective. Thanks for the help again, friends.
