Welp I done goofed at technic, jumped down a pump hole and died, yet that's not the problem. Y'see I'm stupid so I jumped down again with rubber boots and survived, then I found that pumps stop you from digging while in the same block as them, leaving me stuck.Literally got stuck there for almost forever, had to delete the map in the end.

Ouch...I look forward to getting to the Engine Room of the airship, though, like I said, it's going to be a while before I go back there at all. Death does not appeal to me.In the meantime, I'm trying to distract myself with adventures while my Energy Condenser makes two more Klein Star Spheres so I can actually start in on making my Gem Armor. I've got everything but the KSO for the boots.

Bah, the complications are half the fun for me in Technic.If I can get another sample of the Alchemist's Explosive, I may make a cannon specifically designed to fire it. As it requires an explosion to trigger the explosive, it's going to have to use a double-fuel setup - one fuel block to set off the explosive, and then the normal fuel amount to launch it. It will also absolutely have to be a long-range cannon, unless I want to kill myself with it.I've also discovered that the Siege Castle I found is not a true Siege Castle, as it lacks an underground element - instead, it floats above the plains with stone and dirt dangling from the bottom of it. Cool, but less treasure-filled than a proper Siege Castle.

Incorrect. The Alchemist's Explosive is from Millenaire, and is obtained in one of the final Creation Quest missions in the service of the Alchemist Vif-argent. Used properly, it can blow a hole clear through the bedrock - to complete the mission for which that is required, you then have to look into the void. The easiest way to do that is to take a Mo Creatures Black Pegasus and just fly around in the gaping hole through the world.

I likewise would love to see the Dragon go down under the merciless pressure applied by a pogo stick. In both absurdity and awesomeness, it easily tops using a Weapons moderator cannon on an Eldritch Tree (which was mainly funny because the tree, still living, dropped into the crater, ending up with only a bit of the top above ground).

Pogo sticks are now lethal weapons. You heard it here first, folks.Speaking of Eldritch things, the Thaumcraft monoliths seem to be different in this version to the one I've tried before...I've found one monolith on its own, but then I found another that was made up of almost four (the last is missing a piece or two) with a little platform in the center...and seems to be making cthulu mind noises when I'm around it.The ones I've used in the newer thaumcraft were mostly vaults that could be unlocked, with some sort of energy generation to effect to them. How do these older ones work? Can't seem to find much information...Edit: And theres yet another single one nearby.

The Ancient Obelisks in Thaumcraft are different from the Eldritch Monoliths in Thaumcraft 2, yes. The thing in the center of the clusters of four is an Obsidian Altar, upon which you can, if you like, place a Vis Condenser to draw energy from the air and produce Vis Crystals. Obviously, the more obelisks you have around it, the faster it will produce the Crystals. I have mine empty into an Ender Chest so I can dump them into my Crucible when I need fast fuel for various acts of Lovecraftian thaumaturgy.I'm using the Obelisks and an Altar to decorate my basement. The obelisks are positioned around the room, in the walls, offset by one into the floor. The Altar is in the center, with my Transmutation Tablet upon it. When black lightning arcs to the Altar from every obelisk in the room, it's really quite nice.CAUTION: Use a Destruction Catalyst to dismantle the Obelisks from the top down, one block at a time, unless you want them to blow up in your face. Re-assemble them from the ground up, in the proper order, unless, again, you actually want an explosion.---Speaking of Thaumcraft stuff, I am beginning to experiment with symbols and runes. I have a tower at the top of my house which will serve as the central hub for my Void Symbol portal network, and further research may lead me to use more symbols for various applications around my house.

I'm going start work on a tower, actually. Preferably made of marble, it'll serve as a nice place incase my walls are ever breached by baddies.Am I the only person who finds the Transmutation Table most useful for mass producing building supplies and making food?

^ I made tons of marble when I was constructing my home with the tablet, and for rubber wood and copper to make cables, so no. I've moved onto the condenser for food, though.

I use the Tablet for quick procurement of needed goods, and for popping a low-charge Klein Star Sphere in there while the Condenser is busy. Lately I've been making Diamond Blocks on it, and feeding them into the Condenser - though I stopped that and decided to just wait things out a bit.My tower, like 90% of my house, is obsidian. No roof, but a bit of floating glowstone over it. Each of the four arches will eventually connect to a different portal network. As my walls cannot be breached*, my tower runs less on defense principles and more on Rule of Cool.*Cannot be breached by mobs. Were I to set a nuke off by the wall, the wall would crumble.

At the moment my mighty marble stone tower is basically just practicality. When the time comes, I'll make an obsidian fortress of doom. Obsidian and basalt, actually.

Trust me, if you're waiting for post-1.3 stable Technic, you're going be waiting a long time. 1.3 is throwing the modding community into fits, due to the massive changes in the code and all. It's going be a while before all the mods in Technic update. I put it somewhere in October.

So I figured you peeps may want to see my world and all that, so I took some pictures for you guys. Linked for those who have shoddy connections.[Pic] [Pic]We start at my geothermal storage center. It needs to be reinforced against ogre attacks at the moment, but it does its job well so far. Recently hit a massive lava pool, so that's why it's all filled up.[Pic]My nether portal. Not much exciting.[Pic]Geothermal hotline.[Pic]The gates to my fortress.[Pic]This is where I live, pretty cool. There's several layers, so as to ward off ogres.[Pic] [Pic]There's a lot going on here. To the left, we have my recycling system. My mining with a destruction catalyst gives me a lot of cobble, so I stick it in here. The recycler has five overclocker upgrades, so as to keep up with the cobble stream. The pipe pulling cobble from the chest has two redstone engines tied to it, when I get a better energy storage device I'll increase it to three and stick more overclocker upgrades on the recycler. Redstone engines never blow up when powering something, so I can safely run them in the red. Hidden next to the recycler is an extractor, then from there we have three induction furnaces and three macerators. I hope to upgrade to six one day so I can do full cooking batches at once. The macerators have five overclocker upgrades each. Off to the righthand corner we have a LV solar panel powering a compressor.[Pic]The recycling system. I turned off the minimap so you guys could get a better look. Pretty basic stuff, the scrap goes to an autobench, the scrap boxes go to a dispenser, which shoots into an obsidian pipe and into the chests. I pop down every now and then to grab stuff and shove it into my antimatter relay.[Pic]A close up of the solar panel. I am totally the greenest villian ever.[Pic]This is where I live live. Not much, just a chest full of junk over there with a bed and workbench over to the left.[Pic] [Pic]My storage room with a transmutation tablet. Loooots of stuff.[Pic] [Pic]My antimatter relay. It's four Mark II energy collectors tied around the Mark II relay, constantly lit by the jacks ontop of them, giving them full power day and night. No clue how much it produces, but I think it's about one eighth of my Drei.Alrighty, I think that's it.

How would I go about setting up a Walls match?I want to make my own map, because everyone's seen the original and that makes it boring. It probably wouldn't have a clock display so as to avoid lag, probably something simple like an hourglass hooked up to a non-display clock.:w:

I've no idea whatsoever.What I do know is that I'm presently in love with my Thaumic home defense system. It's a bit rudimentary - just a Lapis symbol (push mobs away) and an Ice symbol (slow them down), but I've hooked both of them up to nodes attached to Thaumium Crucibles, so they can pack a bit more punch, and the Lapis symbol has just pushed a passing scorpion up a tree and is holding it in the tree.

Well, I just got done conquering two siege castles/towers (one was a fort, one was a tower), got some absolutely amazing loot out of it. Mostly diamond blocks, but lots of iron, gold, disks, etc. Pretty cool really. This was all due to an exploration quest to get an ender pearl, something I have not yet gotten.

I stumbled into an obsidian maze somewhere to the west recently. The entrance was some sort of sphinx-ish head. Very nearly starved to death down there because I forgot to stock up on food, until I found a zombie spawner. There was some explosion effect occuring periodically but couldn't find the cause. Came back later with my Diamond Pickaxe in an attempt to find the cause, accidentally tunneled through the floor when I wasn't paying attention and dropped into a chamber with a lava pool and some demon hound, with what looked like fire silverfish around the area. Had to rebound the monsters fireballs back at it until it finally died, at which point the chamber began to fill with lava. Thankfully a staircase had generated behind me leading back to the surface, along with a chest that had 42 diamonds and a golden apple. Used the Obsidian I harvested earlier to pretty up the area around the altar and obelisks nearby.Theres also some sort of fortress near the area, but I haven't gone near it yet.

Ah yes, I have a sphinx maze as well. Haven't beaten it yet, but I imagine with my nanoarmor, I'm more than a match for the boss.I'm currently just derping around and making an obsidian/basalt pillar chamber, possibly to use as a storage chamber for obelisks in the future. Right now I have a pretty little chamber beneath my house with four obelisks and a pedestal.

I on the otherhand took the easy route; I tunneled in, and used the invincibility that is the nanosuit to kill the ****beast and survive for several minutes submerged in lava trying to find a way out.If the nanosuit is this OP, I can't even imagine what the quantumsuit is like.

Meanwhile in the world of Hack/Mine I recently collected a wand that has a poison effect, along with total damage 10-12 and a defense of 23 of my total stats so far, that and I'm exploring the wilds of a mushroom biome I found right after spawning.

Is there a way to increase the amount of Vis in a given area? I tried moving some obelisks closer to my home for the sake of convenience, but it no longer seems my condenser is collecting Vis from them. This puzzles me because the area around my home has always had Thaumic monsters spawn around it, even before I started making Thaumic items. I know you can manipulate the amount of vis in an area in Thaumcraft 2, but I'm not sure about the old version...
