Fixing common problems
2. The ModLoader has to be first in the mods list, use the button Up to move it to first position. ModLoader is not needed if Forge 4.0 or newer is installed.
3. Then come (if you need them) ModLoaderMP and Forge.
4. Then come the rest of the mods and last comes OptiFine. Only one OptiFine edition may be active as they overwrite each other.
5. Do not forget to start with a clean minecraft.jar. If it is already modified or patched, then some mods may not work correctly.
6. A mod should appear either in the internal or the external mod list, but not in both at the same time.
7. Mods which have status "No mods found" needs to be repackaged to be used. The mod ZIP file usually have a folder "put_in_minecraft_jar" or similar which contains one or more files like "acx.class". The contents of this folder have to be zipped in a separate ZIP file and added as an internal mod. This solution works with almost all problematic mods.
8. If you get an error "No accelerated mode found" or "Bad OpenGL drivers" you may try running Minecraft with less memory. Go to "Setup -> Advanced", enter 256 in the field Memory and test again. This helps with some integrated graphics cards.

Then don’t make it. People are stupid if they don’t take the content of the thread into consideration.
How do you put “though” into something?
How do you “though” of ways?
How do you know? Are you a modder? *digs through posts* No, I don’t see your own mod thread.
Go on.
Okay…
It should be a different damage value, not a different ID.
Please tell me how you can get Silk Touch and Fortune on a pickaxe at the same time.
…
Exactly. You can’t.
USELESS (due to above statement)
How about a damage value? (As
statedasked before.)Why?
By what means? You won’t be able to pick it up again without Silk Touch?
Also, the extended ellipsis is not necessary. I don’t care if it’s for dramatic effect, you’re only suggesting here.
Again, extended ellipsis is unnecessary.
One of the pre-releases.
Then give us a banner! Then!
Yes, make the “picked up spawner” a damage value instead of an ID.
Wow, please elaborate instead of being vague.

Another issue with suggestions is the fact that I’ve seen a lot of suggestions shot down because someone posted either “L0L SUGG3STED B4 USE SEARCH FUNCTION N0PE SUPP0RT” or “L4WL TOO VAGU3 I DOES NOT SUPP0RT”. I really don’t get why these people think it’s so relevant.

…Okay, can somebody please tell me this guy is being really really sarcastic.…Well, why?I can see why. It’s ridiculous how much time I have to spend getting used to looking at two screens with my peripheral vision.It’s their opinion.Don’t come to the conclusion that their reason is “nothing” if you got a few “bad ones” or none at all.Think? You either come, or not. It’s one of the decisions that you truly know or not.Actually, it [b]is[/i] a [i]happy[/i] game if it has no guns, reason being that their government switched over to communism and banned guns so people wouldn’t die with a single shot.“Gay” is not prohibited around MCF.
On the other hand, if you use [i]actual[/i] profanity words like sh…What games? I’m pretty sure you’re lying if you say they said sports were “gay”.Pokemon is a sport?
…Okay, maybe I should reply to posts that know how to use modifiers in English…You most likely deserved it for being a Nintendo fanboy, as I can see here.Opinions, opinions. You’ll have to learn to not care about it, otherwise your life will be pretty rough.No comment?
…
Good.Hopefully not being a Nintendo fanboy.Dedicated gamers? First you say “gamers” without any adjectives applied, and now you say “hardcore”.If you don’t meet, what’s the point of it if you created it?Oh, “[b][i]a[/i][/b]” list, not “the”. I get why you don’t meet the requirements, you didn’t create it.If everyone talks about it being good, and I go search it on Google (and avoid all the My Little Pony porn along the way) and see footage of it and think it’s good, I’m definitely buying it.Saying that you like it is lying?[CITATION NEEDED]For the fun, and waiting for my YouTube video to finish uploading in 205 mins.So if I don’t enjoy it I immediately get shot off the list? That’s some nice logic there. I’ll remember to quote it for an essay I have.I wish I could play Mother and Mother 3 without emulation. (One of the reasons why Nintendo sucks.)Define “roots of gaming”.If I’m getting 1-2 frames at the menu, I’m definitely going to judge it before I play it.Opinions affect your test score. This is a flawed school district.Bfore I was playing the game, I got 1-3 frames at the menu. That is personal experience. But I have to play it. You just contradicted your arguments.
And, if others say it’s bad for good reasons, I may as well not buy it and waste the—what, um, $69.99?—for it.I [b]am[/b] in my childhood right now (age 11), so yes.Good, that hopefully should land me at a C-minus.Games that don’t cost 59.99 USD or whatever. $10 games like Terraria are the ones I play, because of price.I’m gonna get a D on this test for not spending $60 I could use for something more productive, like—okaylet’ssee—buying a gun and shooting people at my local Target down the street.I’m forced to judge a disc by its box if it is $50. My parent doesn’t have a job right now.Yes, the good calm attitude does it!
…I’m still not happy about that D.This can go on your profile page, so we can get rid of off-topic from your post.I don’t know how to show “respetful”.If it doesn’t cost a lot of money, sure.

Generalizing — selected 12 year olds’ way of discussing on a forum
>> Tips:
>> * The 12 year old/s will most likely toss away criticism as “insults”.
>> >> * The 12 year old/s will not use the report button if they think it is an insult.

I really would like to see where you end up with not accepting criticism in life. Hopefully by the time you’re 18, you’ll realize it is important, but it probably will be too late.
As for me — I really don’t care about helping other friends, or standing up to bullies. I’d rather stay out of it, especially the friends part. In elementary school, I had a friend. We considered each other best friends. (If you read a lot of my posts you’d know who I was referring to by now already.) Then I gave him my address, and he would come over to my house every single day, on average probably. I was excited at first, but then every day the excitement lessened and lessened till I told him not to come anymore, but every day (on average, probably) he would. Then at school he started to call me names and stuff. I kept quiet because, me being the stupid 4th grader, I didn’t know any better.
Then every day he came over, he would ask me to get on the computer, and then I let him. Then he kept hogging it too long I wanted him to just go home already. Then I started to not let him, then he threatened to switch the power in the extension cord to off. Then I figured out a loophole and let him flip the switch off, saying that by doing that he turned it off, making him getting on useless.
When I came over to his house, he never let me on the computer. And when he did, it would be for 5 minutes at most. He just hogged the rest of the time, and I just went home. Every day, it was like that. Either his house, or mine, it was just stupid. I stopped going over to his, but he kept going to mine, and I really wanted to PK Love Ω his face off the surface area of the earth.
But finally my mom found a nice home in Poway after my dad died (and we had the funeral), then we moved there and he has only came over once since it is 35 mins away. When he did, it was the same old thing.
TL;DR Friends will be [PROFANITY] sometimes. And when I asked to be someone’s friend at elementary school, they just said “no”. My new middle school wasn’t like the elementary one, though.You never complained to me about that when I was doing this.
