Nether seems a bit more... dangerous

[Stone Rhino]

Folks moving through the nether have noted how much more... problematic it is to move about the nether. New mobs are living in the nether, but these are not the problem.

Lava keeps spawning these psudo-source blocks that cannot be removed with a bucket and its faster flowing than water. Random, but very frequent lava source blocks spread about, making things even more difficult to navigate.

This a Tekkit change in one of the mods or a core minecraft change?

It's an old bug in Vanilla that didn't get fixed until 1.5.2. There's a special list of little fixer mods that you can apply to your older builds and servers, over in Modder's Market

Ah, which particular part is the bug though? The speed, or the fact that its difficult to remove from griefed areas?

[Lethosos]

The lava not decaying properly. There's a link to a bug report in that thread that explains why.

[Teraku]

Could you post a link, please? I always like to know a bug's cause, but the lava not decaying properly has left me stumped for ages as to why it happens.

Thanks.

I put those files in modpack.jar insted of minecraft.jar?

[Teraku]

Yes.

[Stone Rhino]

Ah, nice to see someone's found a way around that. Question, would this be server side or client side?

[Teraku]

I don't even know if this can be installed into a server. But it's definitely not client-side unless you're playing Single Player.
