custompro98 Posted March 10, 2012 Posted March 10, 2012 So, I've been looking for any Strongholds on my portal and have even been using the eye of ender. I followed the eye to where it stopped and....no stronghold? Are strongholds and the end supported in tekkit? Quote
thebird Posted March 11, 2012 Posted March 11, 2012 Did you check underground? That is where I have found them in the past and the Minecraft wiki states that they occur underground. I haven't looked for one yet on my Tekkit server but they should be there. Source: http://www.minecraftwiki.net/wiki/Strongholds Quote
custompro98 Posted March 13, 2012 Author Posted March 13, 2012 yeah, i followedi tall the way till it stopped made a cavern and searched and searched...no luck. then someone else used hte eye of ender and it led somewhere completely different, go figure. we've found it now Quote
Pilchard123 Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 The eye of ender doesn't always travel all the way to the stronghold. If it helps, the entrance will always be within a ring that is 640 to 1152 blocks from (0,0). If you find one, you can find the other three, as they will be 120 degrees around (0,0) from the entrance to the first you found. With a bit of trigonometry-fu, you can work out the lines that you need to search. Quote

Pilchard123 Posted March 13, 2012 Posted March 13, 2012 Addendum to my previous post: Eyes of Ender will show the direction to the nearest End Portal, not the nearest stronghold entrance. That may have been why you couldn't find it to begin with. Quote
Nogitsune Posted March 14, 2012 Posted March 14, 2012 I actually had this problem today and wiped out an entire island with a destruction catalyst (set to its lowest to avoid eating the thing) and spent three hours before giving up when I found nothing but a giant hole with nothing but bedrock at the bottom.
