Hey guys, new episode of Let's Play Blightfall is out. Episode 5! Keeping up with this daily schedule for this Let's Play is really fun. I'm loooving Blightfall.
So I take a few viewer suggestions in this episode, like making some basic wooden armor until I can manage to get iron armor. I also found some Silver, which lets me advance to the hard-metal mining level Even with my new-found noob-armor, I still kick the bucket for the second time in today's episode. Whoops. Shouldn't have picked on an Enderman. But I did come back and finish him off for an ender pearl
Anyway, I hope that if anyone is watching this series from the forums thread, you are greatly enjoying it Without further ado, I present...
NOOO! He was so YOUNG!!

Have not been finding a lot of bugs or blemishes but a few notes
the machines reward bag for upgrade modules for MFR machines (disappointing reward category) you get 5-6 upgrades pieces all of different material, when I saw what I got my response was, cool I’ll need those and now I don’t have to use rare materials for the higher tier upgrade, I was fairly happy with the reward)
I’ve been noticing on servers, a lot of people can’t find old journals, or untranslated pages for the translation quest/ tabula rasa, they can’t find any because others have got to places first and now there are none left, is there a way they can obtain these which is renewable? Otherwise they will need to beg other players to give them an unused research note from other players.
If you’re in the desert and find a vanilla pyramid (there is one) you can use the TNT blocks in the trap at the bottom, merge with a slime ball, now you have SDX TNT and you can jump to the top of the tech tree with blast mining. Oh and some cool loot in the chest to boot, not really precisely a bug but I thought you could get extremely lucky with this. It’s also fairly close to Gamma bio dome, a whole lot of early game exploiting could happen with it.

The server owners should should probably create a CustomNPCs NPC that will stand at those locations and give out those items only once to each player. Same thing for Ethereal Bloom locations, shimmerleaf, some of the hidden areas, etc.
Anyway I don't think I would play Blightfall on a server, personally, but if I were setting up a server for it that's what I would have done - added Custom NPCs to my server's map to hand those things out to players. Anything less might mean the server owners didn't really think about what the gameplay experience would be for the 10th person to join the server.
@Talonos, can the NPC wand still be obtained with a /give in creative mode? If not, maybe you should give some way for server owners to make sure that the quests don't become incomplete-able for anyone after the first few players.

i have played the modpack for about a week now , and now I'm stuck. LITERALY stuck. i have compleated all available quests , even cleaned the whole world but the paranormalist is only 32% completed (i did the totem of dawn task) and the xenobiologist is only 58% (i tested in creative mod and spawned every monster available)(i got to the translator and 25 fabrics missions)
This mod is really best played by one player, or a group of them working together on a team. there are a handful of things that only really benefirt the first person/group that makes it to a given location. Competition can result in everyone failing.
I think the best bet would be to move cloth and translation scraps to Tainted Villager drops.
Journal Entries, exrtra blooms, Botania Flowers, the ships helm, could all be moved to hidden quests that are activated/rewarded when you go to a specific location
...Have you done any fiddling around with the sunflower seeds in harvestcraft? I can't seem to plant them. I've tried everything I can think of.
There will be a crafting recipe in the upcoming patch that will re-activate a disabled crafting recipe to turn Sunflower Seeds into Sunflower Seed (which you can plant). This was just an oversight when disabling most of Pam's Harvestcraft (so as not to spam up NEI inventory).

I like this idea, but it kind of ruins the immersion of finding something in the world and it unlocking the quests (like mystical flowers unlocking the botania quest line, instead of getting flowers from a quest you unlock on-location). I would think it's better for server owners to think ahead about the gameplay and make modifications to their version of the map.
As I suggested, the server owners (if they cared!) could spawn in their own CustomNPCs which could give those items on their server, without having to change the whole mod-pack to satisfy some server-goers (when the game is really best played solo or with friends as you suggest)

I have 8 Promethium ingots in my smeltery, but when I try to use it to make a pickaxe head by right clicking on the drain, it does not work. I think I have enough metal in there, so am I doing something wrong?

you also need a gold or aluminum brass pick axe cast sitting on a casting table, and a seared faucet needs to be connected to the drain
2nd while you can use the smeltry to make a promethium pick axe, its not the only way to make a promethium pick axe, you can use 3 promethium plus 2 stick in a regular crafting table to make the pick axe the instructors quest is asking for

Heyo, Episode 4 is now out I know it took along time but hey, I was inspired to make it! Having a lot of fun with it... Taking it step-by-step this time around and learning!
OK, so I've seen the spotlights and love the idea of this pack. I went to install it, and although it took a while, I eventually got to the "Installing Minecraft" portion. However, at this point, the console gave out a bunch of errors and it cancelled the install. I've tried redownloading, making sure my administrator wasn't blocking the relevant sites, but to no avail. The console is saying something about not being able to access a site. Any help would be much appreciated! I can post the log if need be. Thanks in advance.
collected taint materials for reputation(xeno) and vitium (para)
got the cloth , didnt bring me anywhere
translated all six translateable items and read then (the grimoire gave ignis and perdito reaserch points)
got any botania flower i have found and made an endoflame
took control of the ship of the flying city
killed the tainted hero and the tainted king
made the dawn machine and gave it all 10 aspects
got over 2 stacks of blooms
killed lots of tainted stuff , eldrich guardians , and mind spiders
finished the instructor , supplier , geologist , scout , colonist , engineer , black market and dark one (green text stating that i finished all the quests in them)
para 32% , xeno 58%
btw.
i play by myself and had extreme luck
also , it was tons of fun
i tried in a test world using the editing book , and didnt see anything besides everything ive done
Is it possible to get Blaze Rods or Nether Wart anywhere on the map? I am at the Hyper-Beacon room infiltration quest, and I am having trouble finding a good way since apparently all of the quests either require lots of Thaumcraft stuff of which I have no experience or ores that i would have to mine for days before I got them.
I may have found a bit of a bug in 2.1.0, with Pam's HarvestCraft. Not sure if it's a modpack/config bug or a bug in the version of Pam's HarvestCraft used in this modpack.
There is supposed to be a recipe for Salt using Fresh Water and a Pot. That recipe does not seem to be working for me, meaning I rapidly ran out of salt, as mining doesn't really keep up with my food needs. With whatever mod it is that's forcing me to eat different foods (or they lose efficacy), it's getting difficult to find new foods to eat as so many recipes call for salt (such as anything requiring dough, butter, or salt itself).
Was this recipe intentionally removed? If not, any idea of a fix for this missing recipe?
has anyone been able to find terrestrial Nether quartz, I have been stripe mining the desert and I've come across, pockets of air in the ground, but no terrestrial Nether quartz, I looked in the NEI list and the block is not present in the list for any type of stone. since its not on the NEI list I don't think its just my map, strange, thou because it was in previous updates.
Edit, ok it was just a problem for the server I was on. shucks, no sharp weapons for me
...directly under the silverwood trees, meaning it is a teeny tiny magic forest biome.

The materials books announce discovery of signalum as "dignalum".
I saw some other typos somewhere but I can't remember where.

If I leave an awkward silence in a conversation, I'm probably introducing myself.

You need to collect some tainted goo or Taint Tendrils, there are some quests in the Xenobiologist for that.

Go to the Tundra Cave and pick up one of the flowers, then open up the Paranormalist tab. There should be some quests there.
