EagleHawkman Posted March 10, 2014 Posted March 10, 2014 PLEASE put Mekanism back in, rotarycraft just isn't the same. I miss my enrichment chambers and solar panels already

I miss my enrichment chambers and solar panels already Ok, PLEASE STICK WITH ROTARYCRAFT! Im sorry, I was being a hypocrite after 3.0 not working. I really, really, like it. Oh, just a question, why isn't galacticraft mars installed? Just wondering. Keep up the good work!
Jacob843 Posted March 11, 2014 Posted March 11, 2014 Awesome! Is there any ETA on a recommended version?

Moderators Munaus Posted March 11, 2014 Moderators Posted March 11, 2014 The pack won't start, once again, for me. Does it download at all or does it crash during download? If you have error during download, please post in Bug Reports, you may have something on your computer that interrupts it. Does download work fine but when clicking the "Create World" it crashes or turn to white screen? Please provide the log in this thread. Preferably a link from pastebin.com so this thread doesn't get cluttered with a mile long log.
ImCoolYeah105 Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Perhaps I am missing something... Is there a way to convert rotary craft power into something compatible with other UE mods? Currently, rotary craft, galactic raft, and atomic science houses the only means of energy generation, (unless I'm doing something horribly wrong with resonant induction, but I did exactly what the wiki says). Rotary craft as far as I can tell has no compatibility. Galacticraft only works with itself as well. Atomic science though, does. However, you need power to run the machines necessary to create fuel, no fuel no generation. This means no charging power armor, no missiles, no atomic science, no mad science, etc. This is turning into a rotary craft modpack and becoming less of the good old voltz I'm still holding my position that you should readd mekanism. I see no practical reason for not. It isn't buggy, it's open source, and it's amazing. You can keep rotary craft if you want, but it still lacks basic compatibility.
Selmak Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 Well, backed up my world, upgraded to 3.0.0b. Placed a Compressor (no idea what that's supposed to do in this version) right-clicked it to see if it had a panel, boom, game shuts down. :/
EagleHawkman Posted March 12, 2014 Posted March 12, 2014 On my computer, the game launches fine. But on my friends, it immediately crashes after it launches. It doesn't even get to the mojang logo. My computer is a mac pro, and my friends is a imac. Hope you can fix this!

I too was crashing but after I updated java it was fine.
SinsShade Posted March 13, 2014 Posted March 13, 2014 Please add mekanism back they have a 1.6.4 and 1.6 mod update please add back...It just doesnt feel like voltz anymore more like tekkit

Preferably a link from pastebin.com so this thread doesn't get cluttered with a mile long log. It downloads fine but as the game won't launch. I think it may just be my antivirus so I hope this will be fixed soon. Same thing happened to me for 3.0.0
CodeBleu Posted March 17, 2014 Posted March 17, 2014 Not that this is a democratic process, but I second the motion to bring Mekanism back. I miss it very, very much.
einstein5 Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 3 Really good arguments to bring back mekanism: 1st it is from U.E. , its almos bug free, and Voltz is based on U.E 2nd Many servers would have to reset their maps becaus all tre ores all the processing units and almos all the bases invested a lot of time and resources in getting this materials this might make amny servers not to upgrade to the new voltz versione(including mine , because i made a oppinion vote and all said the don't want a server reset) 3rd it's a really nice made mod and it''s just awsome , you can keep rotary craft but we really would like mekanism ... It really makes voltz feel voltz , not tekkit with the ICBM mod..... So please bring it back ... It's not hard for you to do it and it would really make thinks easyer....
einstein5 Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 P.S , at least could you make a small versione (something like 3.0.0.c.M , "M" comes from mekanism) so that all are happy?
einstein5 Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 IF not could you at least tell us that you won't?
Skuli Posted March 18, 2014 Author Posted March 18, 2014 Mekanism won't be back in Voltz as far as I know. Resonant Induction and Rotarycraft are some excellent mods, please take the time to learn and love them!
einstein5 Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Ok.... But could you make us a small pleasure : Just make a versione ( 3.0.0.M) where you add mekanism , so that servers can choose what kind of voltz they want to play .... Is it so hard to make us so a small favor? There is enough place for rotary craft and mekanism.... Botha are awsome.. But voltz wouldn't be voltz witout this almos core mods of U.E
Jacob843 Posted March 18, 2014 Posted March 18, 2014 Mekanism won't be back in Voltz as far as I know. Resonant Induction and Rotarycraft are some excellent mods, please take the time to learn and love them! My players and I understand this, but a reason would be nice. Have permissions been revoked or is it because it is too buggy for a production build?
einstein5 Posted March 19, 2014 Posted March 19, 2014 I've made some tests with rotary craft .... It went horrible wrong.... Why in the world isn't working to supply rotary craft stuff with U.E energy..... The bronze and steel in roatary craft is much expensiver in this mod and it makes almost impossible to make an particle accelerator in survival.... I've tryed to charge my power armor in it and it didn't work .... Rotary craft is just not compatible wth E.U.... But you can let it but it makes our lives harder.... At least add mekanism to it. Rotary craft is cool but we need mekanism too.It makes our Voltz experience much easier. You'll make almost impossible to have and fulmination generator , and fusion reactor (a big one) or an particle accelerator in voltz...
ImCoolYeah105 Posted March 21, 2014 Posted March 21, 2014 (edited) Ok. So I've done some investigation and it turns out resonant induction is compatible with most mods. However, this still leaves the fact that it is NOT compatible with rotary craft. You have 2 different power systems in one pack, and it just doesn't work. Upon studying rotary craft I found that's it's basically a ripoff of mine factory, except mine factory is more functional (in my opinion). Also, Power armor is still incompatible. There is no way to energize it, survival or creative. Walking around with an inv full of batteries doesn't even work anymore. So, these are my 2 complaints: Make the base machine mod compatible with the rest of the power systems, and make a way to charge power armor. Edited March 22, 2014 by ImCoolYeah105 EagleHawkman 1
EagleHawkman Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 What I wish for: Mekanism What I realistically want: Better mod compatibility and better ways to make early game energy.
EagleHawkman Posted March 22, 2014 Posted March 22, 2014 If you want to put Mekanism back in, sign this petition and show you're serious about it. This is for the good of voltz, and it should be done. http://www.thepetitionsite.com/872/765/227/the-voltzians-petition-for-readding-mekanism/
Sylph2 Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 I tried rotarycraft and its very fun stuff, its a totaly different energy system, BUT its not voltz anymore with it. The energy system is so much different then any other mods we seen that you should made a new modpack for it. Thermal expansion, mekanism and rotarycraft are three "core" mod and in my head they are exclusive to one another.
