  1. Are you sure that the server you're trying to connect to also updated?
  2. HAA HAA HAA HAA HAA. HAA HAA HAA HAA HAA. I don't get why people liked Persona 4 over persona 3. Seems to me that 3 let you connect to people on a much deeper level.
  3. That too. Essentially, if you see something that starts with Shin Megami Tensei, you can pretty much assume that it'll be fun. EDIT: somebody just proved me wrong. Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner: Raidou Kuzunoha vs the Soulless Army was, in fact, not very fun.
  4. I'm not seeing anything particularly compelling there. PCSX2 gives better visual performance than that on Final Fantasy X, via software smoothing and whatnot. That and the fact that the final fantasy team is very fond of talking about (and making small pieces of) HD remakes of previous games.
  5. Up Your Arsenal was the best IMO. The robot butler was one of the best characters in video games for that whole decade. I'm just going to weigh in here and say that i hated Kingdom hearts. The idea of a crossover game was bad enough, but when they practically took a dump on established character personalities, it turned into a travesty. Couple that with clumsy gameplay in the first entry and you have a recipe for a "kiddy game" without enough substance for older gamers.
  6. unfortunately, there probably wont be an HD remake, mostly because of the laughing scene in luca. That scene turned off so many potential players it's not even funny.
  7. Well, it's not action or adventure, but it is horror, a bit. My absolute favorite has always been Shin Megami Tensei: Nocturne. It's a turn based JRPG, but it's pretty far from the standard fare in that regard. It's kinda like pokemon on a combination of steroids and acid. It manages to avoid a lot of RPG tropes, as well. the combat system, while turn based, is a little more in depth than "i take my turn, then you take your turn" Each side has a number of "Press icons" determined by the number of characters on their side. Each press icon give you the ability to do one action, but critical hits, exploited weaknesses, and waiting only take up half of one icon. two icons are taken when you miss or hit an enemy with something they are resistant to. Your whole turn disappears if you hit them with something they reflect. Remaining half-icons can be used if they are full icons, except that they can't be split. That means that if you plan properly, you can take 8 actions in one turn. And if you don't plan properly, you run the risk of giving away your entire turn. EDIT: Oh, also, the game begins with the end of the universe, so there's that.
  8. So, here's the thing, buddy. If people are determined to be pirates, Platform is NOT the most effective way to do it, because of the way our launcher handles passwords and logins. Here's the workflow for pirating minecraft via platform: 1) Pirate minecraft 2) make a modpack 3) upload modpack with cracked minecraft included, as well as a valid lastlogin file 4) get your legit account pirated because you're an idiot. Here's the workflow for pirating minecraft without platform: 1) download a cracked client And you're done. So, no. Nobody is using platform to pirate minecraft by design. Possibly by accident, because they don't understand how platform works, but at its worst, that just means we need clearer instructions on what to do when you upload things to platform.
  9. The report button is not for asking questions. It is for notifying moderators of inappropriate content. Don't do it again.
  10. They do, and me being wrong is always a possibility. As i said, im not particularly well informed about bukkit. But last i heard, bukkit itself was no more.
  11. That's a rather sticky issue. Some things run just fine under forgebukkit or whatever, but some do not. I'm not particularly knowledgeable about that, but i'm sure they have an IRC channel you could ask around in. Bukkit is gone. No longer updated because they went off to join mojang. This was a particularly productive choice because.... uh.... Well, they've made a lot of improvements to... uhmmmm... Well, bukkit's gone.
  12. The API isn't going to change the way mods work, it's just going to make MAKING them easier. So, yes. It's worth switching, if only to take advantaga of some newer, really fun mods. Nope. You don't mod Tekkit, you mod minecraft, and add those mods to tekkit. The API for minecraft will fix that (if it ever comes out), and some bigger mods include APIs for doing things with their mods. Not quite. We have Platform now, which allows anyone to make a modpack, regardless of server status, and publish it in our index. The benefit of installing a premade modpack is that all the mods and configs will be the same, but that information is given via the launcher and the modpack publisher. Their server doesn't actually push anything.
  13. go into creative, lay down a bunch of quarries, and give them an excessive amount of power. Then check for emeralds.
  14. funny that you should mention that. I've been considering moving on to another picture of Spider Jerusalem.
  15. I like the one where all the mods get hate mail. I'm sure they all love that, very much!
  16. You could delete Redpower World, which is the mod that spawns them. You wont lose any logic or tube stuff, but you will lose the gems.
  17. Well, you could try going on IRC and asking around at #plusplus. They might have some help for you.
  18. Did you try removing millenaire? It might not even be that, but it would be good to know.
  19. I remember having problems like that with millenaire. Try deleting the millenaire files from Sigma, and see if that gives you a significant speed boost. If it does, i'll fiddle with my install and see if i can suss out any settings that might help (just in case you want to keep millenaire)
  20. we aren't promoting anything. It's an index. Saying that we promote these packs is like saying that google promotes the piratebay, because the piratebay is indexed by google. If mod developers want to be pissed off about permissions, technic is not the direction they should be shouting. Find out where the pack that's breaking your permissions is, and shout at the people who are doing it. News flash: People have been creating packs, and wanting to create packs, ever since modding minecraft became a thing. All we did was make the tools for ANYONE to publish a pack, and leave the permissions policing where it belongs. Let me make this absolutely clear: All platform does is tell the launcher where to download a pack from, and how to put it together with minecraft. Modmakers may have absolutely legitimate claims, and those claims should absolutely be brought to the people who those claims are against. We aren't hosting anything for anyone. We aren't telling people to go make packs without permissions.
  21. Platform is just an index. You could stuff anything into a zip and tell platform it's a modpack. YOU still need to host it. It's akin to the torrent argument. Does it get used for piracy? undoubtedly. Are there plenty of legitimate uses for it? Also, undoubtedly. Are some people going to misuse it? Of course. Almost everything that's useful gets misused, but that isn't an indictment of the thing itself. As you can tell by the list of modpacks that have already sprung up, there's no reasonable way to police all the new packs even if we wanted to. The process would also be the same as for torrents. If you want to complain, you complain first to the people hosting the file, and if that doesn't work, you complain to their hosting service, who makes the decision about whether your complaints are valid enough to intervene with with their clients files. An open index is not responsible for all of the content listed on its index.
  22. You can tell the general problem area, because it has to be an area that's currently loaded when the crash happens. That means that it should be within a certain number of chunks to your character, which MCEdit will tell you.
  23. Guys, guys, guys. Use the edit button. There no reason to multipost that often.
  24. You should stop in the IRC channel. If you're lucky you can catch SCT doing SCT-stuff. But yeah, the launcher is totally open source, so if you can read the code, feel free to check it out, fork, copy, use whatever.
