IMO for a long time the 4 redstone engines are more than enough. You would really need to use a lot of lava for 4 redstone engines not to be enough.

Has anyone used this yet for their own power supply?

This is a quick tutorial on how to do my favorite Power setup. It's pretty awesome because you can get tons of power with no effort and once you run out you simply move the pump.

First things first: Server IP: XoXCraft.com Rules: 1. No Griefing 2. No Stealing 3. No racism or any other disrespect against other players, especially staff Banned Items/Mods: Equivalent Exchange: I have decided to ban EE because in my opinion it makes the game WAY to easy. There is also a problem with many of the tools in EE bypassing grief protections. If you don't know what EE is, it's the mod with Condenders, Collectors, Relays, Transmutation Tablets, etc. Balkans Weapons: This mod was removed because we are a server without PvP and all ranged weapons in this mod bypass PvP checks so I had to remove it. Mining Laser: The mining laser is banned because it bypasses grief and PvP protection. Nukes: Nukes are banned in general but if you have a legitimate reason to use one, just ask! Major Plugins: BOSEconomy, Towny, LWC, CoreProtect, AutoRank. What is this server all about? This is a friendly, 24/h Survival Server. The goal on here is to play together, mine, and get as advnanced as possible. There is no PvP and you can be sure that if you get griefed, it will be fixed. If you got enough money you can make a town, maybe invite some friends and trade with other towns.

I still need help with this.

So you overwrite all the mods and config? Not a viable option for me since I don't use all mods and all config are configured not-standard.

Update: Found the problem. It's the Iron Shovel. Just crafted one --> Disconnect. I joined back, picked the Iron Shovel up --> java.util.zip.ZipException: Not in GZIP format Anyone? Any ideas?

Update: It happened to one of my chests for the first time, which lets me know more about it. I have not changed any items in that chest recently. It just randomly happened after a while.

Title: java.util.zip.ZipException: Not in GZIP format Version: 3.1.2 OS: Server = Debian Squeeze 4.0 Java Version: java version "1.7.0_05" Java SE Runtime Environment (build 1.7.0_05-b06) Java HotSpot 64-Bit Server VM (build 23.1-b03, mixed mode) Description of Problem: I have no idea what is causing this, but more and more people on my server are having a certain problem. When they open certain chests it will kick them displaying this message "java.util.zip.ZipException: Not in GZIP format". I have figured out that this has to do with some items, because if they break the chests and pick up the items it will then kick them and will then not let them reconnect until I either delete their player file, or remove the item by editing their player file. I have not found a single item yet that would cause this, for me it happened with some stone tool, once it was removed I could join back. For a different player it was an iron shovel ( i think, some iron tool ) . This might be related, on my other server, after using an alchemical tome on my tablet, it would then, once, I reach a certain emc amount ( somewhere between 100 and 500 ) it would apparently display and item that caused the same error, ( java.util.zip.ZipException: Not in GZIP format ). Only way I could fix this was by deleting my _tablet file so it wouldn't display that item anymore every time I open the tablet.

Thank you, this is a helpful reply.

Should I get version 1.8 or the newest one?

I see, awesome. Thanks for all the help guys.

Well, nolagg supossedly also group items together and keeps items per chuck to a certain limit and things like that. But I guess I will do that.

Thank you very much, good Sir. I will see if it helped in a few hours when more people are online. I changed the network update setting from 10 to 20 for now. Since it's a network setting I think it will be fine since I'm running on legit 1gbps. If you think I should set it higher though, please let me know.

I think those are disabled. What do you mean by using craftbukkit ++ build 75 . How would I go about doing that? And also any more suggestions about the cores? I really only have tekkit running at the moment so it seems logical to me that this would reduce the load on the cores and let tekkit have the best perfomance possible. Also, any other tips?

Well since I currently literally only have the server running I thought I would try playing around with the cores. As for the plugins: As for the mods. No idea, I just have regular tekkit, I think all mods or enabled, just much of EE not craftable.

Please explain to me better this would not make it run more smoothly. As you said, the HTT would have a 2nd thread running on that core, and that 2nd thread wouldn't help minecraft, it would just use potential processing power, I didn't dissable all cores, I disabled half, so the theoretically the server could be running one core, and everything else on the other. As for what's overloading my server. Can you help me find out what it is?

This is both a question, something useful, and also me asking for help. Am I right in assuming that if I a) disable Hyperthreading on my server and disable other cores of the quad core it will let tekkit run better? Since minecraft only uses 1 core, this way that one core wont have a 2nd thread running and won't get heated up from the other cores. Tekkit is literally the only thing running on my server btw. Also, I kinda need help, On my 32GB, 3.4GHz server it starts being overloaded with only 25 people on. I now disabled HT in the attempt to make it a bit better but I still have to wait and see if it will help.
