Oh, he is calm. Who on earth are you again?

The chrome thing is a setting in the options. For a lot of people it's set not to ask. And no, antivirus/antimalware on the system probably won't do any such thing.

No, that's sort of the point of the exploit, to run without any user interaction besides visiting the malicious site.

I'm not disputing their power, but their use has a few gotchas that make them pretty annoying to use, especially if you're working in eclipse. For example, lets say you got a method signature wrong. In the old FML, this would have been a compile time error, and eclipse would have kindly pointed this out to you. Now it's a runtime error, for that's when the annotation is evaluated. Additionally, there's no easy way to check what the signature should be like you could if it was overriding a hook. There's no good way to tell anything at all about what the annotation expects, in fact, until it pukes stack all over the console. Edit: and as ever, there doesn't seem to be any documentation.

Er, that's javascript. Similar name, different beast. This site has instructions to disable java in your particular browser. http://www.geek.com/articles/chips/how-to-disable-java-on-everything-20120828/

Hmm, cool little mod. Is the sky dimension stable these days? I seem to remember it having quite a few issues. I wonder how it works with technic world gen, specifically redpower world stuff.

Not at the moment. Perhaps in the next release, but if so, I'll add some way to check that.

It works similarly to cactus, but only for the top of the block, and it deals 1 heart of damage per attack, adding "fuel" to it's internal storage based on the type of mob. It will store the "fuel" if it doesn't have any work to do.

Anyway, as I'm working on the next release, I'll probably make it consume the lava, giving a fairly large amount of operations. Then the baby chickens might actually be the more efficient method.

That all depends on your definition of bad, I suppose. I mean, even if there was lava on the map, think of all the effort it would take to go fetch some of it!

The bit on metadata is a little wonky at the moment. Specifically, you still need to register a metadata block, and setRequiresSelfNotify() isn't absolutely required.

So, two more pages... Sleep is awesome, by the way. Now, even aside from the idea of closed source in java being as fragile a concept as it is, I can accept that point of view. However, putting aside even the right to study, copy and modify(the first, second and third bits of copyleft), there's the right to use the software(the zero-th bit), which is more what I was asking about. Put another way, how does this developer differentiate between someone downloading from his site or thread and installing his mod themselves vs using the technic launcher to install?

He doesn't have to answer if he doesn't want to. I would also be satisfied by a "None of you business". I'm not going to say I'm not starting shit, since apparently that's not a valid answer, but I will say that's not the intent of the question. It's just a position I've never understood and was hoping that someone who held that opinion might be able to clarify. Not trying to change his mind, just asking for his opinion, one(admittedly small time) coder to another.

You do have a habit of saying what's on you mind without giving a proverbial fuck. Apparently it has rubbed slowpoke the wrong way. C'est la vie. As to my two cents, I'm something of a fan of copyleft. This is somewhat aimed at covert, as they're here and might feel inclined to answer but I've never quite understood the desire to control how your code is used. I mean, you're distributing it yourself for free in the first place, and your license thingy on the MCForum thread says that one is allowed to distribute a modified railcraft cfg file. What's the motivation for requiring permission to include your mod in a pack, whose only modification is to the cfg?

Ah, that does make things slightly clearer. Xylord, go for it. Now that they've done THE GREAT CODE REDESIGN IN THE SKY, things should be stable for a while. Even when they introduce the official modding API, creating you own block class will stay the same. And of course, there's the possibility that the API won't be that nice and everyone will keep using forge anyway. :P

Ok, progress is being made, though it's like trying to swim through molasses, seems like. Everything appears to be similar to how it used to be, but changed so as to be completely unintuitive. There's a page on the forge wiki that I'm finding helpful. http://www.minecraftforge.net/wiki/Tutorials/Upgrading_To_Forge_for_1.3.1 It should be much the same for 1.3.2. So far the most confusing bit is the sided proxy. I have the feeling it could be really powerful, but I'm having trouble wrapping my head around it. Anyway, I've got the glass and panes working. Haven't started on the furnace yet, but into the breach we go friends.

Well, there's not really any config setting for that, I don't think, so yes, you're going to have to change the source code. Offhand, you could make it hold less EU, or make each hit take more EU off, either of which would make it deplete faster.

I'm in the process of trying to work through things myself, mainly by trying to bring my StainedGlass stuff up to date. I can already say: fuck annotations. If I manage to get things working, I'll post what I know.

There is not currently any multiplayer version of TC. Whether anyone supports this idea or not is fairly moot, at the moment.

To start with, this isn't the correct forum to ask how to add mods. Try in technic general. In fact, I think there are several threads there already on the topic. Second, we have NEI(Not Enough Items) already. It's better than TMI. Third, that button has no effect at the moment. It did in the past, might in the future, but not in the present.

Alright, who's taking odds that the new guy is our friend the cheese? If you're not, I apologize, but I've become a little paranoid about this, and you're newness, making a beeline straight to this thread and speech patterns aren't helping my paranoia much.

Can you post a picture for reference? I haven't been keeping up with the beta stuff.

can't tell if trolling or just really dense. Either way, this is hillarious.

You... you're pretty bad at the whole socialism thing, you know?

Hmm, I think posting here and being amused is a more productive use of my time than trying to "fix" someone else' codebase. I have been down that road. I know where it ends.
