It wouldn't make sense for those doors to have handles that can't be used. The iron door doesn't have handles and requires redstone to use, so i was thinking of that.

Is there a way to download a recipe-less version of the latest update? There used to be one (I think, and I'd like to have the latest update recipe-less)

Thanks, I used all of the sound blocks, there are only 16. Yes that is a map I have been working on for awhile. Plynth

The mod for moving blocks around is Pistronics - Modular Pistons.

1 tiny little question:

How goes the battle with the particle blocks or the smaller containers? Hope all is well. Thanks

Also would it be possible to make the Xblocks or some of them breakable with an axe or something while in Adventure Mode?

Some of the recipes show up and some don't. Like for instance some of the lights don't show up nor do the bridge parts and alot of other recipes don't show up for me either. I am using 1.7.10-1.1.3 of you're mod.

Is there a place for recipes? The blocks show up in NEI but not recipes and blocks nor recipes show up in craftguide. Thanks for any help.

Dude.. I think I just filled the cup.

Oh my face. This is amazing. Do want! Glow paint wouldn't happened to be on that list of good stuff would it? Or the custom liquids? (By the way, how did progress making all the goo pump properly through pipes turn out? Is it fixed for 1.7?)

Is it my imagination, or is green fire more burny than regular fire.

I'm building a narrow pathway/staircase up my mountain, and I'm burning trees down as I go (burning is much more therapeutic than just removing) and I am using the green flint and steel, to differentiate between my tree-burning fire and the many campfires/fireplaces.

And I reckon the green fire is faster and more complete in its destruction - it does not leave rogue leaf blocks like normal fire does.

Maybe its cos green is my favourite colour, and I like to play with it more. Then again, should bushfire logistics personnel be so delighted with burning trees? BWAAHAAHAAA!!!!!

A bug with the API makes certain blocks render blue at night.

Particles 'n' stuff.

Bright particles in the dark.


Added cinders to the camp fire and cinders with puffy smoke to the brazier.

Is there going to be a 1.7.2 version? Most of the mods I have on my server are still 1.7.2 so can't update yet.

Quote from MindKrafter »
Will release an update with the new blocks later tonight. The update will also contain a few bug-fixes that I have come across, most of which I sneaked into the original upload a few days ago.

* Fixed wrong sound for Cloth Pavers.
* Fixed no lightning bolt when attacking with DiamondSword09.
* Changed GlowGrass back to a full block.
* Added DIYCoral blocks to DIYDecorations. 8 x regular, 8 x glow.
* Added CandleHolder, Candelabra, Chandelier and Brazier to DIYXtras. Brazier works the same as the Campfire and the candle blocks can be activated with the zippo/torchsnuffer.

First thing: I gave FastCraft a go and it works beautifully, especially in the players surrounding area at start up. What an excellent little mod. It also confirms to me that Crafty's problems with NEI lag aren't coming from NEI (unless she has another mod interfering with it). The lag and fps drop I was having are clearly solved by FastCraft and/or Optifine. BTW, as you weren't sure - it works wit OF A4 Ultra.

You would wager correctly. I do like to do my research.
Yes, SEUS is definitely a hungry mother. There are times that I think another shader will do, but I just love the overall look of SEUS. Other's seem to get one or two effects spot on (for me) but fall short on other effects, whereas SEUS seems to get everything right (except no god rays but I think you can turn them on), but you can pay the price with an fps hit.


Here's a quick run down, based purely on my opinion. All were set in the same location, with the ChromaHill x128 resource pack, and I only count what comes as standard in the pack, using a combo of qualities. No config settings have been altered:

Mr Meep's: Decent fps, big god rays but they are rough looking, crappy surface water, nice underwater with wobbly effect, colours are average, banding around the sun, dodgy/flickering shadows at sunset.

Sildur's Vibrant: Colours are nice and bright, water surface is okay but boring and 'linear', underwater is too clear, excellent god rays, distance blur looks bad and is way too harsh, fps is average, night time is nice and dark but ight sky is a blurry mess.

SEUS: Excellent lighting, bright but realistic colours, dark nights (especially in forests), excellent surface water, excellent underwater but no effects, optimised for Nvidia (yeah) but fps still takes a decent hit.

Super Shaders: Bright and colourful, nice god rays, nice surface water, underwater is too clear but there is a wobbly effect, average fps, dark nights.

Choco's: Excellent god rays, bright colours, average surface water, excellent underwater, night is okay but maybe a little too bright, average to decent fps.

Ziipzaaps: Terrible fps, surface water is average, underwater is excellent, excellent god rays, night is too bright it's almost like a dull day.

I should also add that I find Choco's, and it's variants, to be a bit too orange with torch/lamp lighting, but then I do go for a more modern look. SEUS has this 'problem' as well but it's not as bad. But that's mainly down to what I want, not the shader.

I have done a bit of .fsh/.vsh tweaking in the past, mainly to change the light colour and enable/disable features. I got most of that from the shaders thread. Beyond that I tend to leave it alone and go with the standard setup.
But if you decide to go with SEUS, I do have a link to a page that shows you how do things like parallax textures (excellent but very intensive - not for me), proper bump/specular for when it rains (recommended but you really need Chroma Hills x128 for this), visible rain and some other stuff. Tells you exactly what to change and where.
One quick tip I can give is that I always go for a view distance of 16/far with Optifine. I found that just lowering down to 14 gave me an fps jump of 10 fps, but without really affecting the view much. Might be useful for you too.

Hope this helps you.
