My alter is made out of quartz and emeralds and when I throw and blank rune in nothing happens, it just sits there. Please help!
Um. and you put the magic wall and crafting alter block?
The only thing I can really think of is
A: you didn't put in the spell book(probably not)
B: The spell you made is too 'complicated' for the alter and you need to make a better one.
That said, I would really like a 'conjure block' spell. It would work kinda like the 'place block' spell, but you won't need to have the blocks in your inventory, and the blocks will not drop anything when broken. They also disappear over time
Has anyone had an issue with AM2 machines unlinking? they seem to unlink and dump all power they have, including batteries if you have left the chunk for too long
So there's two things. First, the Particle Emitter. It's awesome, but unfortunately, I can't set it to any type except the default, plant. I already have one plant particle emitter, I don't need more. But no matter which other type I set it to, it changes back to plant as soon as I exit the GUI. The other settings all seem to work fine. The action setting doesn't seem to do anything though.
Second, every single time I've rejoined the server, I've come back to find all my machines, conduits, obelisks, gateways, and whatnot, have all been disconnected, as well as drained of all three types of Etherium. I have to constantly reconnect them (and refill, in the case of Obelisks).
Playing on Yogscast Complete 1.6.4 server with Ars Magica 2 version 1.2.0.022.
1) The bug is well-known and will be fixed in the future, but I've not found any workarounds.
2) This bug is also well-known and will be fixed in the future. However, I'm happy to say there is a workaround. Just drain all of the Etherium into mana batteries and log off with them in your inventory. Yes, it's tedious, but at least then your only issue is having to place the battery and link the machines up.
Just as a quick update after the AMA - I have created a post for the modding tutorials I will be doing, so if you're interested in learning how to mod, pop on by and get your suggestions in!
can anyone answer me how to craft Essence Nexus?? Thanks!
Are you still in AM2 1.12 or in AM2 1.2? There's a huge difference between the versions. In the first, it's a 5x5 area, with two stone bricks stacked on each other at each corner, with chiseled stone bricks to cap them off, and blue chalk in the middle of the area.
In AM2 1.2, you have an Obelisk that you create instead.
A week later now that you've asked. ETAs are taboo in the coding community because things can easily go wrong.
Be patient. It will be out when it's out.
Nothing wrong with giving status updates. Expecting people not to ask when a mod they love will be available, isn't very realistic. Especially those with servers that depend on said mod. While they can't possibly give us a date, they could let us know how it's progressing every so often.
Enthusiasm from the public for a mod seems like a good thing to have (especially with patreon in the mix), and that's the only reason people are curious about updates. They LIKE the mod. Being popular is sooo hard.

And the thing is that Mithion does, in fact, give updates quite frequently. If we haven't heard from him in a little bit, it's because he's hard at work on trying to get Ars Magica to 1.7.2. Twitter is unfortunately our friend here, as was his AMA this past Sunday. The only problem was that for whatever reason, that VOD never got made, so it ended up being a private party.
I appreciate enthusiasm. I don't appreciate people pestering a mod author to update. If I have mixed up the two in the past, it is simply because I see far too many of the latter.
Quote from MoridinIshamael»Twitter is unfortunately our friend here, as was his AMA this past Sunday.
Ohh! I have him on twitter, but I missed his AMA! I looked around for it, but couldn't find it, would you happen to have a link? I'd love to read it. Thanks :3!
Quote from TheBeFezzed»I cant for the life of me make a spell. every time i go to add a component it just wont add it . its my 1st time using the mod and im using it in conjunction with the yogpack mod pack . does anyone know what the issue is?
You are using either Self, Projectile, or Touch as your first component right? The spells have a sentence structure like language does, so you have to specify what you want to hit in what manner, with how much force, etc by using the spell shapes.
ie. Self -> Regeneration or Touch -> Dig is an both excellent beginner spells.
Edit: Does anyone else hate the new forums formatting as much as I do? Had to redo this post 3 times ._.

Sadly, there's no transcript of the AMA, and due to an error on Mithion/Twitch's part, the AMA has been lost to the sands of time. If there's anything you want answered that was asked about during that AMA, I'll do my best to find the answer.
Things I remember offhand:
Mithion mostly has to wait on AnimationAPI to be updated to 1.7.10 to update AM2 to that version.
Minalien has offered to at least make a forked version of the API to help.
Gateways were checked on and seemed to be working, though Mithion's computer was being a butt about letting him stream it.
Flickers are tiny elementals. (Not sure if this is known or not)
In the future, we'll possibly get to see glimpses of the Flickers' elemental worlds (sans Fire and Ender due to those dimensions already existing as the Nether and the End respectively).
Also in the future, a possible joke dimension because of me making a bad joke during the AMA. (It involves a 9x9 cobble building... your guess is as good as anyone else's).
Anything else, if you ask it, I'll try to remember it

Ohh no! That's a shame it got lost D: But thanks so much! That's an awesome chunk of info, and now I'm even more excited! xD Much appreciated! <3
So I'm Renovating my tower when I notice none of my stuff essence in them, I go to link everything back up but for some reason it says no path can be found. It was all working Before but now my Obelisk won't connect to anything save for the first conduit in range, after that nothing.

Fall into the hands of sorrow
Drawn by the darkest bay
Walk into the pit of silence
I am the one calling your name

Well that's embarrassing, I did make a mistake there, thank you for pointing it out. With this in mind, a screenshot of the altar would help out.

Yes, the mod creator has been working on 1.7.2 for a while.

Both, 1.7 stuff isn't out yet.

You've obviously missed all of his posts here on this thread then.
