I've been testing the mod. The wrench seems to be working for me, but the essence system was a headache to figure out. Especially since some other mod created slabs that look like blocks and I grabbed them without looking close enough. . . and kept building nexus and altar out of slabs without knowing it.
I also couldn't get a crafting altar to work underground. I still didn't solve that one.
When you build other machines do they draw from the nexus? I've had some of them not need the wrench to start drawing nexus power. The essence refiner was one of them if I recall. I was shocked to find that it drained my white nexus dry without asking, stopping my spell creation, yet again. The essence refiner can also be right-clicked with a crystal wrench to get a beam of light and a magetec staff to measure.
I haven't had an issue related to building it underground yet.
Are you using:
12 stairs
38 blocks
1 crafting altar
1 lever
1 book stand
5 cap blocks
It's also best to have two nexi, one for your machines and one for your crafting in this case.
Actually in my home I have close to 7 light nexi, but I suppose that's what happens when you make tons of gateways, and live in your own natura redwood forest.
Thanks Plisko1
I made a video demonstrating the issue so that people can see for themselves, and possibly catch me doing something wrong so that I can fix it.
That's the version we use on the server and it works fine, he may need to update his required forge version.
EDIT: just realized you are in 1.6.2, so last forge version before the migration to 1.6.4 was the one you are using, I'm not really sure it is effectively tested for 1.6.2 however.
Thanks Plisko1

My server uses forge build 944 and has no issue with linking power. I noticed i had to try a few times initially before i saw the beam of light from the mana battery. not sure if it was me or the server.
Whenever I have aspell that requires essence I put tons of essence under my essence nexus and it eats it all up I make sure that I have put down at least 10 source blocks as it would require but then I pull the lever for energy and it doesnt work
Just one question that popped in my mind right now and don't know if has been asked or not.. Are you using railcraft? It's really a wild guess, but prehaps hidden blocks from railcraft are interfering, somehow.
No, I've been trying it modless (other than AM2) with fresh installs of the client and server for forge, using the 1.6.2 version AM2 recommends, the 1.6.4 version that AM2 recommends, as well as the most up to date version of forge. Same result on every one, right clicking the rune has no effect
I am also using the most up to date version of java 64 bit.
I don't really know what else to do at this point, but thank you all for the replies and trying to help. Ill keep an eye on the mod for now and try again if there is an update
are you running it completely clean no texture packs?
Yea, completely fresh installs.
However I do have another update. I found a workaround, that allows me and anyone else with this problem to continue using the mod. I made another video with a walkthrough on how to accomplish this. Basically you are just going to give yourself fully charged mana batteries, and run off of that.
Sorry to bother, I guess you already discussed it but I can't find an answer in the topic... Is there some way to disable the dryads? They're very buggy and causing a lot of lag on my map... I see that in the config there is a section for that, but it's empty. Help...? They are invading the world... XD

I will experiment more with the underground altar. It was my first one and I checked and double checked the design, but that was before I discovered that "slab" problem I mentioned earlier. I thought I built the exact same one above ground, though, which worked. I'll mess around now that I know it is supposed to work.

Another thing I noticed recently is that I experienced some longish lag between using the crystal wand and getting the beam of light. It took a good 5 or 6 seconds for the beam to start. By then I had clicked again, which turned it off before it appeared. It also looked as if the beam sprite was sideways so I could barely make it out. It may have been just an isolated glitch. . but sometimes it is the stupid stuff that confounds us the most. I don't recall the wand not waving, though.
IMO ForgeCraft players are NOT representative of the average player, and from the few DW20 video's I have seen I have to wonder how some of these people managed to get onto what essentially is the community beta server. Personally, I go at things like a demon when I'm learning them and ultimately end up breaking them or abusing their mechanics.. then I report what I find.
They're there to test out the mods... They're the mod developers, and most of them are actually really good with most of the mods. I don't know what you've seen, but the only problems I've seen them have, including when they're livestreaming the server, is when something new is released, or they haven't tried a mod before, so they obviously wouldn't know much about it.
Eeeeeehhhhh... you might want to start tinkering with the other setting, since i think some spells require light and dark essence...
You can specify what type of essence you want the battery to hold.
Also, I did try clicking then just waiting to see if it was delayed. gave it a good slow 10 count before click on something else. that did manage to make the conductor light up when i selected it, but it still wouldnt transfer any essence to the crafting station. So far the battery is the only thing that will do it.
Have you tried linking a nexus directly to the crafting altar block? As far as I'm aware, the conduits don't store any essence so you wouldn't see anything happen by linking it to one of them. It also only seems to work (for me at least) when the structure is actually requesting power as part of spell creation. I've also found that the wrench not having an animation when used on the nexi doesn't impair its functionality and that the beam doesn't always appear when using it (may have something to do with the graphics settings, I go for pretty much rock bottom on those so that I can use a reasonable render distance)
I tried to put this mod on my server, because it looks frekin' awesome... but somehow the server don't wants to load the mod in any way... nothing appears in the server console and none of the items er existent.
In Singleplayer with alle the other mods everything is kay.
Anyone had this trouble too? Or is it just me?
might wanna post a forge log even servers have forge logs.
Also Mithion very nice mod you have here I do have one beef the Arcane Compendium text could use some spaces to make it easier to read lol all I see atm is a wallotext with no spaces

Curse PremiumMy server uses forge build 944 and has no issue with linking power. I noticed i had to try a few times initially before i saw the beam of light from the mana battery. not sure if it was me or the server.
If you don't have perms to use the command on a server, just go to single player and do it.

I know you can move stuff but can you make it just not how at all?

Wipe them out. All of them.
