The MafiaScum Minecraft Thread - AllTheMods 9!!! - NEW Vanilla?

[Lycanfire]

Guess I'll hop on the modded server bandwagon

I've only used texture packs as mods (john smith master race) but this should be interesting.

haha wow my laptop gets 1fps with this mod.

going to have to wait until i can send my desktop to the shop to be repaired

[Nexus]

getting incompatible server mods thing.

i tried reinstalling the server pack on the different things so as it is fine and i can't work it.

can you do a step by step guide of installing it again? I am using the curse client....

[EspeciallyTheLies]

There was an update to the pack recently so use the FTB launcher and select

version 1.5.1

of the pack.

Lycan - try adding BetterFPS to the mods folder (you can find it at here). That helped a lot for me.

[EspeciallyTheLies]

When I get back to school after spring break (Tuesday, March 14), we will update the pack as it contains several bug fixes.

[aphix]

I feel like a god in this new pack. And I haven't even really did anything cool. Just running around with the dark armor from Ender IO. Empower III in everything but IV in boots because they go through lots of power. Jump III and Glide and what not is installed. Working on maxing it for fun. A drill with speed II and a 3x3 and fortune augment digs so fast I'd be scared to do speed III. A 16m rf battery to run everything with! The item repairer is OP. Although it takes a ton of RF to repair things no materials needed(it's slow). Learning how to do redstone again. This time how insulated redstone conduits work. They are amazing.

I think that's it. I've been playing non stop for a few days. So I probably well have a few more days before I quit until next server again.

MODDED SERVER UPDATE

The pack has been updated. We are now using Direwolf20 1.10 pack, version 1.8.1 (for mc 1.10.2). This update can be obtained from either the Curse client or the FTB client. Please post if you run into issues or have questions.

Most recent changelog can be found here (YAY thermal expansion!)

[davesaz]

Any apparent improvement in the lag?

[EspeciallyTheLies]

i dunno honestly - i never experienced it that bad and when i was on this afternoon testing everything seemed fine BUT cofh tps showed 50% in OW so.... i wouldn't be surprised if some automation at my place or yes' is the culprit.

[davesaz]

The update seems to have reset any FTB team designations.
This would presumably reset any chunk loading due to FTB, and for me the lag is gone.
So I'd say I agree on the likely culprit being some automation that is running.

[davesaz]

A spot check now shows normal spawning rates too.
Yes's spawner maybe, if he was using the team chunkloader to keep it going?

[EspeciallyTheLies]

i changed the view distance on server settings - that usually seems to fix the spawning issue but probably a combination of both. grinders always drop out spawns

[davesaz]

Changed it in which direction?

[fuzzybutternut]

I forgot this site existed.

[EspeciallyTheLies]

Changed it in which direction?

from 6 to 9.

[Maestro]

yo, y'all should probably enable flying on a server with a lot of different ways do the flying thing

also, thar is some painfully constant micro-lag thar... is dis why server = ded?

[fuzzybutternut]

Yes. The lag is bad. I think it's better now but it's still bad.

[Maestro]

so bad Klaz didn't wanna play on Mafiacraft anymore lol

bye Felicia~~~

[davesaz]

Best guess the lag is something that is calculating display stuff on the server side instead of client. It's definitely a CPU based problem, at 100% all the time with memory usage in the 50-75% range.

I went from my place to one which seems to be M and Klaz, and lag improved. Going from there to ETL's it got worse. Going N from ETL's it recovered slowly.
The lag at my place is less than ETL's place. I didn't have (much) lag last week, don't know what would cause that.
I have not checked back to find out if things have recovered overnight once I was away and not causing chunks to be active.

I'm thinking about either dialing back Forestry butterflies, or seeing if the animations in ExtraUtils can be turned off in the server config. We don't want to actually disable EU2 given it is how some of us have flight. The first thing that pops into view when approaching ETL is the water mill stack for GP, and her place and mine both have butterflies.

Another thing that might help is reducing the frequency of server saves. It's something like 2-5 minutes right now and there is a huge pause when it saves. The tradeoff there is more rollback if there is a crash that doesn't save.

One more thing that could help is changing the Java garbage collection parameters. But I don't know how to get access to the shell script that launches a server, where the parameters would need to be put.

[davesaz]

The lag should be substantially less now. Don't know if it's completely gone. Dialing back butterflies and killing the existing ones seems to have done it.

[EspeciallyTheLies]

I HAVE DISCOVERED THE CAUSE OF THE LAG

FORESTRY

It's very existence in the pack causes lag spikes and severe lag - no idea why, but tested out in SSP and pre-removal it was horrendous. Took it out and suddenly everything was very smooth and good FPS (for my laptop).

Also I may or may not be working on a new custom pack for SP7/MC 1.11.2

[Nexus]

Could we maybe do another quest modpack? I really enjoyed the one we did with the magical crops and stuff.

Oh like a special event-type server? Like agrarian skies or that other one. I know Yes was messing around with the latest skyblock pack. I'll check it out. We could maybe do that while I work on the new one.

[Nexus]

Yeah. Like regrowth or agrarian.

[Xevei]

I've been playing Craft of the Titans - it's pretty awesome. Very tough mobs but very well fleshed out quests (tons). It's definitely a challenge to play

[Aeronaut]

Hi there, wondering if you guys still accept new people?
