Oh man, do I feel dumb! It says "Effect: EFFECT_WITHER" and that all the brightness levels are set to 1.0

I will try making another dimension, this time without such a harmful environment. I owe you that dollar! (Logging into paypal now).

It is very rare to actually get that effect at random. You were unlucky :-)

In any case, in the future you can add an 'effect none' dimlet (which is craftable) to avoid these kinds of problems.

every time we die in or make a new dimension our server like locks up and after rebooting some times it stays created and others it dosn't

any ideas would be great

That's a bit vague. Making a new dimension is very hard for a server (that's also true for Mystcraft) but dieing in a dimension shouldn't be. But this is very vague. I would really need some more information here. Do you have a crashlog or anything?

it doesn't crash per say just lags everything out for 10-15 mins or so. i understand the dimension building takes a while but the death thing was wierd . it was an unpowered one at the time that's why i died we had 1 dimention that never was created after 1 hour i killed the thing and reset it

most everything works great tho ^^

Is there a Way to delete the dimensions from your dialing device ?

If you mean delete a dimension completely (not only from dialing device) then yes. Use /rftdim safedel <id> and if that's not enough /rfttp cleanup.

Don't forget to remove the dimension directory too.

New release of RFTools (2.80) with the following changes:

2.80:

• First remove config/rftools/main.cfg to get new and changed settings and also fix a config bug. Also read the warning below on the screen support.
• Dimension related changes:
• The 'frozen dimension' option is now default. It can still be disabled if this causes problems.
• Reduced mining fatique from 4 to 2 if the player is using a Phased Field Generator to make sure he can get his or her grave back.
• If a dimension is unpowered no animals or mobs will spawn. This prevents a problem where for some obscure reason a frozen/unpowered dimension caused massive amounts of squid to spawn.
• Fixed celestial bodies in a world where time is frozen. They would all be at the same fixed spot. This is now randomized better so all bodies will appear on a random spot. The dominant sun and moon will still be at the expected spot however.
• When generating liquids for orbs and liquid orbs you are now always guaranteed to get one liquid.
• Fixed a potential problem with liquid orbs not having a valid liquid which would causes crashes during chunk generation.
• To avoid the problem of being unable to get your items back in a frozen dimension the Phased Field Generator will from now on revive all entities around the player in a certain radius (default 5). This will allow the player to dig the grave, pick up entities and so on. Mobs will also become active but it is not possible to cheat with this as the player cannot attack anything in a dimension without power (a PFG does not help with that) while the mobs can.


• Teleportation related changes:
• Added a new 'Dial Once' option to the dialing device. With this option you can dial a transmitter to a receiver. Upon first teleport from that transmitter the dial will be removed so that other players cannot follow. This is useful to be able to dial from a public place to a private receiver and make sure noone can follow you.
• It is now possible to mark receivers as favorite in the dialing device. This is remembered per player.
• In the dialer you can now also filter out all receivers/destinations that are not marked as favorite. This option is remembered per dialer.
• Implemented a new 'simple dialer' block. This block can react to a redstone signal and based on that dial or interrupt a single connection. This is especially useful in combination with the wireless redstone and interactive screen support (see later).


• Screen related changes:
• Screen modules can now be interactive! The first interactive module is the 'Button' module. This module will react to the player left-clicking and can send out a wireless redstone signal. It can be used in 'push' or in 'toggle' mode. To use the 'Button' module you have to sneak-right click on a redstone receiver. The first time this is done with a module this will create a new channel and set this to the module. It will also copy that channel on the receiver so the redstone receiver will get redstone signals from the button.
• To support this the screen is now a proper multiblock. You still have to use the wrench to toggle between large/transparent/normal modes but if you go to large mode invisible blocks will be used (this is needed to register mouse clicks for interactive screens). If you use any existing large screens in your world it is recommended that you sneak-hit that screen with a wrench 4 times to get the proper multiblocks there. This only has to be done once.
• The large screen now has a proper rendering box which means it will no longer disappear if it is at the border of your display.


• Environmental controller related changes:
• Implemented the night vision module for the environmental controller.
• Implemented the water breathing module for the environmental controller.
• Made sure that an active environmental controller with modules in it always consumes a minimum amount of RF. Configurable and set to 5 by default.


• Varia:
• Improved the visual appearance of widget lists (as used in the dialer and storage scanner and various other RFTools blocks) so that the selection bar no longer goes over the border. Looks a lot cleaner that way.
• Fixed a bug where clicking an empty ChoiceLabel would crash the game. This could happen if the player puts an uninitialized machine information module in a screen and then uses the UI on the choice label.
• Made the crafter a bit more robust in case of mod updates where some recipes no longer work or resulting items are different. In this case it will simply ignore the recipe.
• Fixed a bug with the Energy Extractor getting the wrong value from the wrong config field.
• Big cleanup and simplification of the code to setup the screen module GUI.

Is there any way to craft the normal terrain dimlet and/or increase my chances of getting it from the researcher by editing the config? I'm using a modpack that adds a lot of liquids and it seems like thats drastically decreasing my chances of getting any terrain modifier at all.

Also would it be possible to get the energy module to register the draconic evolution energy core?

At this moment it is not yet possible to construct terrain dimlets (besides void and normal) so for now you'll just have to get lucky I'm afraid.

The energy module does work with the draconic evolution energy core provided you have a recent enough version of RFTools *and* Draconic Evolution. But as I remember you actually have to target not the core itself but what you're getting energy out. At least I think. Never used it myself.

Just tried using the energy module to monitor the energy pylons. After I inserted the module in the screen I got kicked from the server I was hosting, the server itself did not crash however. Attempting to load it up in single player results in the world being closed. Oddly enough I can still load the world and the exit menu comes up, but as soon as I close the exit menu the world gets shut down.

Hmm. What version of DE?

Hmm. What version of DE?

Yeah, that was the problem actually. Just checked and noticed I was a few version behind. It appears to be working perfectly now

I'm using this Mod in my Modpack called Ages of Earth. Hope to get it as a third party pack in FTB

Nice! Thanks for letting me know.

Ok, something is wrong with the first post and I can't seem to edit it anymore. I'll try to get things sorted.

Thanks for this mod. Endergenic generators are awesome. I don't know why more people aren't using them. I hope you keep the technical theme in the future.

I do know. They are complicated :-)

Glad you like them though. And I just noticed your post in the endergenic thread. Great job!

Does anybody know the combination of dimlets to create ender oceans or domes of ender fluid?

To create oceans you will need the dimlet for the liquid ender and then put it before whatever terrain modifier you have for the dimension. You will also obviously need the ocean biome dimlet and a controller.

We here at RF tools have been working too solve one of the world's greatest problems and that is the lack of resources. In our endeavor to find a renewable source of resources we have heard many rumors some involving demensional doors, others involving a place called the nether, a few involved a dimension known as the end, but the most promising ones have been about a group of mages who call their practice mystcraft.

In studying these mages we have discovered that through their magic as they are able to create a book linking this world with another one. We found this a very promising lead to having infinite resources but we have heard stories of mages who barely come back alive who tell about the very fabric of existence being torn apart there.

After studying some of their unstable dimensions we believe that dimension itself is not unstable but their connection to the world is unstable. Those books with which they teleport cannot carry enough energy with it to keep the portal open properly to these rarer but more profitable dimensions. With all this information we have decided to try to create our own worlds using energy instead of magic.

After countless hours of trial and error we were able to reproduce a dimension similar to the mystcraft mages but we have been unable to control how the dimension is created like they are able to do. We have begun to search for a way to control how the dimensions spawns but with extra recources we are getting from quarrying out the other dimensions we believe we should be able to find an answer to this problem soon.

Through objects that's our researchers have dubbed dimmlets we are now able to control how it is formed. With our new found ability to control the dimension we have confirmed our suspisions that the mystcraft mages unstable dimensions is caused their connection to those dimensions. We have crated dimensions similar to theirs in density of resources but with no instability. This has been accomplished by pumping a great deal of power into the portal.

We had an accident the other day and lost a researcher in a dimension when the power wasnt sufficient to keep the portal open. We went in to recover his research materials but with being unable to provide enough power the portal fully we descided to give a rescue team a portable power sorce to open a portal enough for them to pass through but they cannot stay long as the portal they create is not very strong. They succeeded in recovering the materials but the researcher was nowhere to be seen. The rescue team that was sent in said that while in there they moved very slowly like their bodies didnt have the strength to move properly. It has been hypothesized that our bodies are somehow linked to the strength of the portal we used to enter that dimensions the weaker the portal the weaker we are and if that portal were to go down then so would we.

What is the name of the RFTools loot table?

I've added Loot Bags mod to my instance I want to add RFTools loot to the bags

This is the first time I hear of the word 'loot table'. I just add unknown dimlets to chests. That's all.
