The answer to "why?" is very apparent to me, because minecraft's spawning system totally sucks and this is one way that building a zoo could be a fun and challenging project. The only thing keeping me from downloading it is that the only mod its compatible with is mocreatures. Add atmosmobs to the list then we will talk.
Davey, Im still struggling to get a good highlands MSC config going on and Id like to ask you a question.
Do any of them despawn? If so, would it be a good idea to set those creatures as monsters or ambients? Im thinking small things like frogs and dragonflies.
I'll look into it. Sorry, but I'm busy this week. Haven't be able to put out another beta update.
It looks like for some reason it can't recognize the TF biomes. That's really weird.
maybe for the same reason they dont show up in mystcraft books. Anyway, Im still kinda waiting to see if anyone will clue me in on how they are having such epic sucess with this mod. As I said before no matter what settings I choose, when it comes to the game finally deciding what creatures to spawn and where it almost always spams the same creature with hardly any hint of variety. Say I want 3 types of creature to spawn with an equal chance?
Unfortunately atomic only has VERY outdated versions not slightly recent ones on his site. So I guess we will just have to wait around and face his wrath for spamming this thread with whines and complaints.
Currently using Optifine D3 and Forge #524, modded with Dynamic Lights, Twilight Forest, and Thaumcraft 3.
While playing on single player, I noticed that ALL GUI textures are missing, showing only "Missing Texture" in the background. I am using the Default Texture pack and have experienced this problem many times before while using Forge #490(?) and Optifine C3. I did some poking around and researched the issue (Forge forums point at Optifine) and have tested for myself by removing Optifine from my selection of mods. Once removed, the textures return...
While it does still run and functions as it should, the missing textures on all GUI puts a massive damper on actually playing Minecraft.
A bugfix for this would be greatly appreciated.
I posted my own workaround to this bug a few pages back. At least I think its the same bug, you havent said anything about crashing when exiting the game. But I bet you have mipmaps enabled. Just open the thaumcraft zip and find the file burst.png and resize it to half.
I looked on the wiki list of texture packs with support for this mod and didn't see Dokucraft; without looking through the rest of this thread, can someone tell me if one has been made that isn't on that wiki or if someone would make one?
Theres one for John Smith, it should go nicely with Dokucraft or most any 32x pack.
yeah I just started playing around with the imprinter,rejector and armbot, all three are very cool. I like that the imprinter can also be used as an autocrafter. Ive been wanting a cohesive experience since I started dabbling with tech mods (instead of a bunch of completely different systems) so thanks for all the hard work.
Yep. In fact, I bet if you disable OF temporarily, and play vanilla minecraft for a bit, it will look very very bad, because you're used to OF's improvements. Am I right?
I added some BOP biomes to it manually since it never made any. I still cannot find any structures and I put in a lot of them. Does anyone confirm it to be working with BOP?
It worked for me back when I was still using BOP. Then again, it was working in highlands biomes too up until the last update.
Well, I dont see anything about Syntacraft on the UE wiki. Im curious as to what the goal of the mod is. That it adds new ways to make building blocks is definitely a step in the right direction if you ask me. One of the major downfalls of all of these tech mods is that they give you tons of high tech machines but leave you in the middle ages in terms of building material. Iron blocks are too expensive. I hope you consider adding new industrial styled decorative blocks that require at least some metal in the manufacture.
Excuse me for poking at you a little here, but I do have one question... If you spec'ed out your computer and had 92 FPS running vanilla... why would you need Optifine? It's made for the more low-to-mid range computers that will hardly see more than 20 FPS.
I dont use optifine to increase performance. I use it make the game look better. Mipmaps, HD textures, clear water and better grass goes a long way to making Minecraft look awesome.
Dude, this is the BEST biome mod I have ever seen. 8O
Hell yeah! And its way underappreciated. People dont even know what they are missing here. I know when I first saw the thread I thought "why do I need even more biomes?" At the time I was using both extrabiomes and biomes o plenty which totaled up to nearly 100 biomes...that should tell you how desperate I was to get some halfway decent looking worlds, especially around the spawn area which 9 times out of ten was crap. What I didnt understand then is this mod isnt anything like those others. Its not so much about the biomes as it is about amazing terrain generation. Now I cant choose which awesome location within walking distance of my spawn site on any random seed to start building on. Doubters, you simply MUST try this mod. Support the author so he continues development of this amazing project!
Sorry davey. i used to make mods for morrowind and I often was frustrated with the lack of feedback sometimes. I havent actually had a chance to play this mod much yet, Ive spent way too much time trying to configure MSC to work with highlands biomes, (now theres a mod that also deserves more attention) the only things Ive managed to get to spawn with a reasonable frequency and variation is your atmosmobs fish-which might I add is something Ive wanted to happen since 1.2.5. I plan to do the same with primitive mobs.

While it has new trees, (the best designed minecraft trees Ive seen yet) they are made of the default blocks.
