With 16Gb total, you should be able to give the server more and it should run stable but unless you're hosting an end of the world gala, I wouldn't worry about it. 2-3GB should be fine for 5-10 people, at least. If you have a larger population, add allocate more.

Are you saying that it threw an error when you had the mill set to 4094 or when it was set to 4095? Also, I believe the problem may occur because of where you guys are downloading the bukkit port from. I got mine at http://minecraft.maeyanie.com/ which is what the forestry wiki links to. 1.4.8.6 is fine, I had problems trying to run rev2.

http://caliblog.de/2012_08_07/sywt-add-forestry-to-tekkit-3-1/ When I installed it yesterday, the mill id was fine but I checked it anyway. It should be 4094. The client-side NEI plugin should work fine if you get the right one. I mention it here: http://forums.technicpack.net/threads/cant-install-foresty.21889/#post-167657

Normal server console should show the seed when it's "Preparing start region..." I believe.

Old quad cores...hmmm... I'm wondering if you might have an old q6600 in there like my old rig. That'd be pretty funny, ha-ha. Yeah, if you post up hardware specs and what OS you intend to run and how you configure it, I'll take a guess at it. Personally, if it's just some old pig you're sacrificing, I'm sure there are a ton of people on here or online that could recommend a featherweight Linux distro you could boot up to run a server. I dual-boot into Ubuntu but I hear Mint and [i forgot] are also good lightweight Linux distros that aren't too hard to set up for a server. I would do some research on how to set up the partitions and scratch and such though, might make it easier to manage everything in the long run.

5Mb/s tested or that's what your cable company bills you for? If you want an accurate estimate (BTW, if you link the specs and note changes that are different in BIOS or CPU-Z, that also helps a lot), it'd help if we knew your MB make and model, bus speeds, RAM speed, timings, type of HDD or SSD, OS, if the machine is virtualized, etc. Off the top of my head, a low overhead 3Gb dedicated server with 4Gb total with your internet specs should support 4-5 people with no problems...if it happens to be an old windows computer running everything through Windows networking stacks, anti-viruses, firewalls, and HDDs that run 5200RPM and filled with crap, not so much. Overall, it should be fine but if you're making it a dedicated server, you'd probably want to configure and set it up as a dedicated server and have it serve no other purpose (at least then you can get the best software to keep that baby purring). I guess if the processor has several threads you can set the affinity of other programs to run on those threads and throw java on its own physical thread but now we're just splitting hairs. Either way, you're probably fine. Test it out and tweak it if you can or need to make it better. Um...no. I stated that when you travel to another world you may lose functionality in the transmutation table or some of the other people on your server might. This problem occurred in other versions of Mystcraft and EE and in Vanilla MC server with those mods installed. You can use Mystcraft just fine but expect to restart your server if you want to use the transmutation table (sometimes). Sometimes the problem doesn't occur and sometimes it fixes itself but more often than not, it does occur.

Yes, you have to use the Forge version of Mystcraft for it to work. I played it tonight for about 4-6 hours with my GF and noted the following: As suspected, hopping into another age does breaks the transmutation table requiring a server restart (in order to learn or transmute objects). I host my server on the same computer I play on and when I entered an age, there was a serious lag spike for about ~5 seconds or so when generating the new world (for myself and for my girlfriend). The two of us exploring worlds produced no noticeable lag after the initial age generation. I also noted, it's a great idea to check and ensure I've remembered to craft a linking book before age hopping, ha-ha. Otherwise, the server runs great with just the two of us. @Dodge, 10-15 and 2-3 is a very big difference in terms of the server's workload. If you're only running with 2-3, test it with 2-3 (if you really want to stress test it, try 4-5, maybe). If anyone is trying to host it on a high population server, good luck to them but I only play with a few people so it works well for me.

I installed it into the modpack.jar client-side. It wouldn't load right when I tried to load it from the mods folder. Yeah, the only reason I went through this is because my GF and I wanted to play together. ;p

I was going to do another write up like I did with this ( http://forums.technicpack.net/threads/how-to-create-and-use-a-block-id-dump.10289/ ) but I simply can't take another 4 hours of my day doing a Barney-style, by-the-numbers explanation. However, I'll do my best to do a quick write up here that could, at the very least, provide a good starting point for you guys. Note: I just got Tekkit to work with Mystcraft (and Forestry) and it was relatively easy. Because this thread is dedicated to Mystcraft, I'll just explain what I did. I would like to point out that I simply loaded in and test to see if Mystcraft was working and if I'd get any immediate crashes. I have not tested this long-term nor have I tested it's interaction with mods like EE2 (on vanilla servers, age hopping often disabled the trans table until a server restart). If this breaks your stuff, corrupts your world, or sets your house on fire, it's not my problem. Change your stuff at your own risk. What I did: 1. Grab the port here: Topic']http://www.mcportcentral.co.za/index.php?topic=3541.0"]Topic%20Bukkit%20Ports%20Listing 2. Do a block id dump and an item id dump on Tekkit client (use the writeup above if you don't know what you're doing). 3. Install Mystcraft Client 0.9.1.02 Forge version into the modpack.jar. 4. Run, generate config file, crash, change block and item ids in the new mystcraft_config.txt file. Here are the contents of my current Mystcraft config file: # Configuration file # Generated on 8/19/12 4:46 PM #################### # block #################### block { block.bookstand.id=131 block.crystal.id=168 block.linkmodifier.id=4090 block.linkportal.id=182 block.receptacle.id=184 block.starfissure.id=180 block.unstable.id=149 block.writingdesk.id=132 } #################### # entity #################### entity { entity.book.id=219 entity.falling.id=218 } #################### # general #################### general { options.ageid.minimum=50 options.decay=true options.platform.blockid=1 options.renderlabels=true } #################### # item #################### item { item.agebook.id=200 item.linkbook.id=201 item.notebook.id=203 item.writingdesk.id=202 } #################### # packet #################### packet { packet.activate.id=137 packet.agedata.id=135 packet.falling.id=133 packet.openwindow.id=134 packet.tileentity.id=136 } #################### # texture #################### texture { block.crystal.texture=175 block.unstable.texture=167 } 5. Run and test. 6. Install bukkit port into the tekkit.jar 7. Run, generate config file, crash, change block and item ids in the new mystcraft_config.txt file. 8. Ensure the "Block" area matches the client config. Contents of my Mystcraft server config file: # Configuration file # Generated on 8/19/12 4:47 PM #################### # block #################### block { block.bookstand.id=131 block.crystal.id=168 block.linkmodifier.id=4090 block.linkportal.id=182 block.receptacle.id=184 block.starfissure.id=180 block.unstable.id=149 block.writingdesk.id=132 } #################### # entity #################### entity { entity.book.id=219 entity.falling.id=218 } #################### # general #################### general { options.ageid.minimum=50 options.decay=true options.platform.blockid=1 options.renderlabels=true } #################### # item #################### item { item.agebook.id=200 item.linkbook.id=201 item.notebook.id=203 item.writingdesk.id=202 } #################### # packet #################### packet { packet.activate.id=137 packet.agedata.id=135 packet.falling.id=133 packet.openwindow.id=134 packet.tileentity.id=136 } #################### # texture #################### texture { block.crystal.texture=175 block.unstable.texture=167 } 9. Run and test server and client together. 10. On my test, everything showed up in NEI and could be crafted except the Linkbook Stand which doesn't show up in NEI, is craftable, and Unnamed. I also didn't test long enough to find and test anything related to crystals and crystal portals. Once someone tests it, please report back. Experiment with it and post if you run into bugs or crashes (just so I don't do what you did and wreck my world ;p). If you run into some issues, I can try and help. @OP, if you want, copy my post into your original post (using the edit function) so people trying to do the same thing can check this out. I would only recommend doing this after a few people tested it and it worked. Also, I'd appreciate it if you'd credit me but mostly I just want people to be able to find this information when searching rather than starting useless threads. Personally, after I got the client working, I was going to attempt to create a self-modified vanilla server to run Mystcraft and every mod in Tekkit...thank God I tried to do this first. I'll be testing this later tonight in-depth. If I run into any major problems, I'll post.

Don't start with that kind of attitude. It means you didn't read the rules, did something stupid and/or received enough warnings. As long as you stay out of trouble, it'll go away in a couple weeks as long as you remain a useful member of society (this one).

Probably because it wasn't a substantive post and just an opinion without any additional information for the OP and didn't meet the criteria of funny or amusing as outlined here: http://forums.technicpack.net/threads/board-rules-and-guidelines.3918/ That's just my guess, I'm not one of the moderators. Personally, I agree with you that anyone trying to run a server should do a bit more research than just unzipping a file and asking the most basic questions on the forums but just because they don't know doesn't mean they shouldn't try...they should just do some research first.

Dude, did you even go through my link above to the TP forum on this website? Someone already compiled a TP for Tekkit if you're trying to use Sphax. If you're trying to create another one, go and make it.

Step 1. Get bukkit port server-side. Step 2. Instal client of the same version. Step 3. Ensure all configs match up and don't conflict with other mods. Step 4. Troubleshoot (have fun with that).

One, maps go here: http://forums.technicpack.net/forums/get-lost-grotto.41/ Two, You can't copyright the map. The "terms" of your "license" conflict...and it's poorly formatted. Ask for this to be moved to the proper sub-forum (linked above) and remove that Copyright crap at the bottom because it doesn't apply. For future reference: http://www.copyright.gov/circs/circ01.pdf

You're right. Anyway, if push ever came to shove, [the videos] would provide a great addition to the counter.

Frivolous suits and PR campaigns against Tekkit that have no basis in truth would be slanderous or libelous. For example, her demeaning all staff and essentially making a lot of stuff up and referring to everyone as children and such would be likely be libelous as the demean the status of or defame the web site and its staff unless they are based in truth. I'm just waiting for someone to start demanding birth certificates to prove it untrue. This was my favorite part: http://youtu.be/OS695MSEHvY?t=2m48s Funniest thing about this thread and user is that until she decided to begin this crusade, she was essentially an anonymous member of an online forum. Her choice to publicize and attempt to exploit this common event for the sake of filing a frivolous suit is the only way any actual defamation of her character could have occurred. I wonder if the Tekkit team can petition to have the videos removed for libel as she's guilty of that herself by all the assumptions she makes in her tireless campaign for attention.

That's right. Mystcraft is not Bukkit compatible. I just searched again and found this: Mystcraft 0.9.1.02 davboecki Download http://binarymage.com/ Needs to go into the craftbukkit jar. Only works with MCPC-176. Here: http://mcportcentral.co.za/wiki/index.php?title=Ports_for_1.2.5 If any of you guys want to give it a shot, report back with your methods.

From the pictures, it looks great! I wouldn't mind taking a stroll through once you post the link. Side note, this thread should really belong here: http://forums.technicpack.net/forums/get-lost-grotto.41/ Also, once you've set up the file, just highlight the text you want to link to the file's URL and click the chain at the top. A box opens up and you put the url in and click ok. Sometimes the box doesn't open all the way immediately, I find that a quick scroll often does the trick to bring the rest up. (In case you weren't familiar with it).

If it's your Java Path go here: http://condor.depaul.edu/slytinen/instructions/setupj2sewin7.html For 64 bit systems, it should be "C:\Program Files\Java\jdk1.7.0_03\bin" or something to that affect. Check your Program Files folder and the Java directory for the exact directory. FYI, it'd probably be easier to just re-install Java7 and try again. If that doesn't fix it, abandon all hope here and go post a proper bug report in the proper forum (the bug forum).

You can, it'll just take some work.

No. Mystcraft isn't Bukkit compatible which is what the Tekkit server package is built on. If you want to play Mystcraft with a Tekkit client (+ mystcraft), you'd have to create a vanilla server that includes everything (you want) in Tekkit (install everything into the server.jar and mods folders). You wouldn't be able to use plugins and such though. Also, mystcraft sometimes makes EE2 act funky (like disabling the alchemy table after going to a new age; a server restart fixes it). I got the Forge version of Mystcraft 0.9.1.02 to work with Tekkit 3.1.2 (client and server). Information on how is located at the bottom of page 1 of this thread.

Have you tried re-downloading the launcher? I just opened mine and it showed up fine.
