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.

He's trying to say because they are similiar blocks, just have 1 block that can toggle acting like a dropper and a dispenser. This wouldn't remove anything

Please Remember to +1 if you like the idea! it really means a lot!
Overview of the Blue Potato
Crafted with Lapis, and restores hearts rather than hunger. It is also eaten shorter than regular food (I am not sure how long the eating animation takes, if anyone knows, please tell me )
How to Craft
My idea for this is to craft it with Lapis! 3 foods so far are crafted with Gold (Gold Apple, Gold Carrot, Glistening Melon) So why not add to the not very useful, Lapis! My idea at the moment is 8 Lapis Surrounding any Potato, but if you have any better idea's make sure to comment! When you craft it, the blue potato just looks like that, a blue potato.
Now, how does it work?
As i said in the overview, it restores health not hunger! i'm thinking 4 hearts For Cooked Potato, 2.5 For Uncooked/Poisonous. This would be useful for PvP and it is not OP (I hope) as it costs lapis to create! Or anytime when your low and can't afford to wait for automatic regen just eat a blue potato! I see myself using this a bunch. If your thinking "Why not regen using a gold apple, an item already in Minecraft?" Golden Apples still take time for regeneration, and only regenerate 2 hearts (Talking about Regular Gold apples, not "God Apples") and the main point of them for me are the 2 extra hearts. And God Apples are A LOT more exspensive, so this is in the middle.
Poisonous Potatoes: So if when crafting the Blue Potato, you use a Poisonous Potato instead of Cooked/UnCooked you get a Poisonous Blue Potato. When Eaten this gives you Nausea 1 for 20 Seconds (Unsure about the effect!)
The Whole Poison Potato Part Was Dinotrex37's Idea, thank you for that!
I was also thinking, what if you used the Blue Poisonous Potato to make one of the unobtainable potions, the Nausea Potion! The basic potion would last 1 Min. Add Redstone for 2:30 Min and Glowstone for Nausea 2.
Feedback!
Please tell me below if you like it/don't like it, have ideas to improve it, or anything!

I love it Gryphons are amazing!
How about a weapon for someone to use against them?
like a big fire torch that has long range to hit gryphons with
and about wild gryphons, what if when you kill them you get a gryphon wing, maybe used to make the anti-gryphon weapon?

Chapter 1 : The Beginning
Me and Joseph think it's coming, the end. No one in town believes us. We know that on the last day of January, the end barrier will be broken. We've studied it. We are thinking about going in. Finding how the Ender people, or Endermen have been escaping. I have seen them, so has He. I went out in the snow a few days ago to get bones or rotten flesh, they have stolen all our food. rotten flesh tastes horrible, but it helps. The bones can grow or melons or wheat, but not for very long. I picked up My chipped stone sword and my leather chestplate and charged out. I was slaying a zombie when a skeleton shot me. I was confused for a second or two but then i realized it. I was falling. I hit the bottom and was knocked out.
Guess that's all i have for now, Crispin.
Chapter 2 : The Pit
Jan 18th, 1974
It's me, Crispin again. I can tell you the rest of my story now. So i got up a few hours later, i think.. And i started to crawl through. It was some sort of..mob base? i could hear silverfish crawl around in the blocks near me as i go to the other side. It had, different types of mobs. i mean, they are Zombies. Creepers and Skeletons, but they just stared at me. They weren't hostile. I heard them hiss and growl about Me, and then a 2 skeleton's who were riding spiders came up to either side of me, and started to drag me along, This hideout was where the mobs geared up. I saw a whole line-up of skeletons doing traget training and zombies who were practicing how to rip open a person head. Kind of disgusting... My leather armour was ripped up and my stone sword has hanging on my pocket, i don't think they see it though. After a few minutes of being dragged we reached a big room. The spiders opened the doors and we walked in. There was stairs up to a platform where a throne was. Sitting on the throne was an enderman with a gold staff and an enderpearl on top. He had a different item in his other hand, but it looked almost the same as an enderpearl he threw it above me without saying a word and it cracked in the air. Then it froze. Then he locked his purple eyes on me and i panicked. I quickly got my sword any slashed the skeleton to my left.
this might become a story if you guys like it. it'll become more action packed later, but it's my first Minecraft fan-fic and would like opinions.
thanks!

thats what i was wondering. so the only thing that will affect "regular" players is the map height increase?
