Re: Nausea's too intense [SPOILERS]

I understand. I guess I'm just overly sensitive to it (I also find the Quake FoV nauseating, for example). The moment I notice it I begin to get nauseous. The laptop's recovered now, so no problems there. Just finished watching Vioki's latest stream, so I have some ideas now for remotely toggling th...

Re: Nausea's too intense

I haven't worked out every cause of it, which might be part of my problem, but I guess its my desire to not be spoiled conflicting with my inability to experiment for myself. I don't know what/how to avoid, I guess. I also have to expose myself to it early game for... Grinding netherrack, when inser...

Re: Nausea's too intense

I take it from the response my point wasn't very clear. The nausea swirling goes beyond being an unfun debuff into an actually deliberating visual effect for me. I can't look at the swirling screen without become nauseous myself. While normally I'd congratulate a game on such a level of immersion, I...

Nausea's too intense [SPOILERS]

This is technically a vanilla issue (I think Nausea's vanilla?), but because of reasons it's become a lot more noticeable.

I was merely progressing through the tech tree when something happened and I got the nausea debuff. I... lost a laptop. And my lunch.

Mushroom Islands feel useless

We came across a Mushroom Island recently, to much rejoicing. Then... did nothing with it. We could of set up a base there, but we already have a sufficient mushroom farm. We thought we could bypass a bit of trading and harvest some Mycelium, but then we remembered that requires Silk Touch. Ultimate...

Re: Early-game mushroom farming?

Personally I use a variant of the ol' "Stick 'em in your tunnrls" approach.

My tunnels are 3 high and 2 wide, but then I remove the blocks either side on the floor, before covering the floor in half-slabs. Voila, pitch darkness, perfect for growing shrooms.

Re: D&D style games

As less of a game and more of a thought experiment, you could always stat up an Exalted character and run it through your favourite game/tv show/movie.
Of course, you're basically just story telling rather than playing a game, but it can be full of fun "what if?" situations.

I mean technically you could have chest minecarts, and fill them externally, but that feels against the spirit of the challenge.

So my new base is in a small mountain spire. Today I walk outside my base and five spiders fall on me and die.

Re: [1.5.2][GUIDE] How-to install BTW w/ MCLauncher & MCPatc

MCPatcher is a mod installer like MultiMC. It allows not only simple swap-in installs of mods, but also mods that patch in specific code. So no, you wouldn't load BTW into the jar by hand, you'd use MCPatcher to load BTW in the jar and then also use it to install a few other mods that come with MCP...

Gloom Night Question

Does Gloom only affect the player, or does it affect mobs too?
I ask because every night my base has been assaulted by spiders that climb onto the roof... except tonight. The only difference? Tonight's a gloom night.
I think they might of been eaten by the darkness...

Re: Monetized Mods

An interesting point that I saw: Each game sets the percentage for its mods. Presumably that means that you could have a game that gives all the money to the modders.
