I like it. i tried with 1.5.2 and haven't encountered any problems with it yet(In case anyone is wondering if it is 1.5.2 compatible).

Anvils are not meant to be used on every tool you want to repair. The cost is so high because one they can be named and two they can retain and even enhance enchantments, meaning that you can keep the same unbreaking 3 efficiency 5 fortune 3 pickaxe for as long as you can keep repairing it. The point is not for repairing gold shovels, you can do that with 2 gold shovels in your crafting table. It needs to be expensive because of the value of the enchantments.

I chose gold shovel for it's high speed/low durability

A feature that I was excited about was the newly added anvil. I tried it using a gold shovel and some ingots. I was very disappointed.

Cost to make a shovel: 1 ingot
Cost to fully repair a shovel: 4 ingots AND 4 levels
Cost to rename the shovel "Piece O' Crap": 5 levels
Cost to fully repair "Piece O' Crap" using an anvil: 4 ingots AND 8 levels

I'm glad I did this in Creative instead of wasting stuff in Survival.

I just joined this server and I like what I see.

"Anvil block has been tweaked (it’s cheaper to create, minor visual changes, and you can repair tools using wood/ingots/diamonds)"

Diamonds need to be renewable, but still hard to get.

Ugh, what is the point of this? Artificial difficulty at its finest (that's a bad thing).

This did not deserve a bump or a thread.

If you don't like it, click something else instead of bumping it.

This is not harder, it's just impossible.

It's a lot easier now.

This could be made in 5 minutes, tops. Post stuff that hasn't been done a thousand times before.

I never said this was a realistic pack and I never saw this done before. I searched.

I fixed the snapshot textures. Hope I got all of them.

It now supports the weekly snapshots. Enjoy.

I have a problem, I can mine Amethyst with a Copper Pickaxe, I do have the Level Up! mod but I have no skill in mining what so ever, So im not sure if its the Level Up! mod or this.

I mined amethyst with a cobalt pick and i didn't have the level up! mod.

that way, someone will be there to collect it.
