Oh, sorry - yes davroe, I did. It has been brought to my attention that Thaumcraft was updated and contains a bit more research now.....you'll all get what you already researched, but the new stuff you'll have to get on your own.
abusing how? most of the op'd options like more ores bring corruption into the world. I AFK'd mien for 2 reallife hours and the entire age was completely eaten by the decay rate. it isn't sustainable to abuse for logn periods of time.
yes, if you try to do wacky combos, like applying a single-biome world and large-biomes (requires 3 or more) it makes your world unstable and throws in some decay blocks, that eventually overrun everything. Other things like simply choosing "more ores" auto-add these blocks as well, to censor it being to OPed.
normal things though like making a world of your favorite biome, or leaving out all snowy biomes from a world will be allowed and able to flourish.
Hmmm...interesting...looking into Mystcraft now.
I'm seriously considering just going for the Modpack kit option, izak and I will talk about this. Maybe a QT is in order?
Also, Maru, spoil that gargantuan img up thar. Did you make that? I'm impressed.

I disagree entirely. In my opinion, we're playing what Minecraft could be in 20 years if Mojang started catering to some very obscure ideas. It's just that we have the opportunity to do this now because of the amazing Modding community built around and encouraged by this incredible gaming environment.

It's just that Minecraft has so much potential. You are likely not yet disillusioned with the vanilla game, which is totally fine, but I've been playing for 2+ years. The mods add whole new content and sets of rules, and just when you've "completed" one, there are a hundred more to try. And then you go back to the vanilla version to enjoy its simplicity, and the cycle begins again.

I don't know. It seems to me that the more mods you add to the game, the less time you spend actually building stuff.
The vanilla server has so many awesome buildings (the mazes, izak's caves, spawn town, the many different castles)... I've yet to see what has been built of AWESOME in the modded server...
(Or maybe this is a reverse-psychology attempt at getting you guys to post more pictures )
-Ultimate Solar Helmet is from GraviSuite, not Advanced Solars
-Compact Solars isn't really that bad actually, I wouldn't mind it
-Mystcraft is amazingly awesome
-Advanced Machines isn't nearly as awesome as I though (mostly it juts adds the same stuff as Compact Solars :S)
So yeah, I think I'm in favour of a switch now. Still also in favour of a brand new world, but some kind of starter kit would be nice. M, PM me about what you had in mind?
