hi it's dember. my life has settled down enough for me to fuck around playing modpacks to see what some more of them are like.
you know what i can say about forge is that life in the village 3 is pretty good. it's okay. it's not bad. it made some UI decisions that i disagree with (JEI............. GIVE ME BACK THE RECIPE BOOK BUTTON. I WANT TO CLICK FEWER TIMES) but the quality of life kind of owns. i keep acquiring bundles by accident.
this, however, IS the only pack i've met that can handle me. at least there's one (1). I think some maybe exist for Fabric but I'm enjoying not having to care for 5 minutes since I have Strong Computer now.
might be doing Holidays Tech Support for the server while I set up VSCodium for my minecrafn't game projects. happy dember... play lots of games!!

what do I even do. I think it would be okay to remove wildlife and disable or HEAVILY nerf spawning for most of the mythic mounts... I've been trying to figure out whether the "I can't find this texture :(" thing was a problem iris was causing, because CLEARLY the texture EXISTS because the mobs render just fine; something's just weird in the pipeline somewhere; & that turned out not to have been the case, so maybe I have to check like. sodium indium and entity culling... also I've been getting that "tried to access a block entity before it was created" thing again; I forget who was doing that last time but I know I solved it. so I'll have to see about that, too.
#this would all be SO MUCH EASIER if there was a REAL ISSUE TRACKER and NOT JUST A CURSEFORGE PAGE AND DISCORD#bro i do not want to join your discord i want you to have an active github account and a wiki#rbstext#rbserver

I'd sacrifice wildlife to get rid of these lag spikes but mythic mounts has GOT to stay but I am SO mad about the lag spikes. so mad. I have a strong computer now this is Literally not my fault and yet it has been made my problem
#rbstext#rbserver#also the big turtles literally will not spawn because for some reason they keep trying to do it RIGHT when the chunks are loading#and because there are unloaded chunks 'near' them they get scared and won't do it#I'm going 😑 about it all

mysteriously running into outofmemoryerrors while developing 1.18.2 modpack... I'm inclined to blame wildlife since it seems to be confusing the fuck out of the renderer and that's the only other error I've been seeing in the console but what if it's something stupid again!!

also seeing that ask made me decide to spend an evening running some bighuge forge modpacks just to see how it went & the good news is that New Computer can run stuff like that pretty much no problem and the even better news is that like. I really really truly have no reason to ever do it again...... simply not a modpacks person. even Bliss (which I LOVE the concept of!! love it!!) was kind of underwhelming to actually play.
I will probably still check out some fabric packs at some point for curiosity's sake. and to Learn, probably. BUT!! I am so fucking picky. I'm so picky. I'm so picky. and I STILL don't understand why JEI/REI are treated like god's gift to modded mc enjoyers and not some kind of begrudgèd necessary evil
#THEY ARE JUST AN UGLY BANDAID ON STUFF MODDERS DON'T WANT TO SPEND TIME DESIGNING AROUND#THAT'S IT THAT'S ALL THEY ARE. I'M NOT MAD AT THEM ABOUT IT I THINK IT'S GREAT TO HAVE THAT OPTION#like i ALSO have limited free time!! and priorities!!#but omfg!!! how is 'click on a text field so i can type in the name of an item and then click some more stuff#on a different part of the screen' 'JUST to put the RECIPE in my CRAFTING TABLE INTERFACE'... ..ANYTHING. HOW IS THAT GOOD.#that's BANANAS to me. it's AWFUL. there's EXTREMELY spotty documentation on how even to make a recipe unlock#with fabric modding!! which is also NUTS to me!! who wants to EVER individually place stuff in crafting slots!!!#better recipe book dev is genuinely the only motherfucker who can handle me.#like they weren't kidding that recipe book is better. than REI. in every way#rbstext

also the other day I saw someone ask what kind of computer they need to run minecraft w/ HD texture packs and it made me want to document my Computer Building Process so bad.. if minmaxing real life is A Hobby to you then YOU TOO can spend like a year learning how to build PCs and run Linux largely for the purpose of having a computer that can run MC and do other stuff at the same time. you can even do it for fewer dollars than I did, I bet. but I do not think everyone enjoys minmaxing real life so I think it's maybe possible that someone could benefit from me saying things about how I picked components and stuff... maybe !!?
#the THING ABOUT IT is that benchmarks and what have you tend to ignore minecraft in favor of like. literally any other popular game#presumably because it's kind of an oddball wrt performance for SEVERAL REASONS#1. java 2. mojank 3. arbitrary resource consumption bc mods / resource packs#u know. so you have to Infer Things. which is kind of like learning to look into a crystal ball or something if you're starting close to 0#you gotta unfocus your eyes.. you gotta google stupid things. look on many different subreddits.#ignore one paragraph of a review and take the next one to heart. etc#nothing but 'single thread performance' and 'ray tracing' for company.#what if i dont care about ray tracing ! what then huh. & then of course a lot of MC-centric advice is outdated or About Forge#but i at least have SOME rules of thumb now and a little lived experience to back em up which is neat#rbstext

ok so stairs and slabs are pretty easy. & in fact apparently got easier after the tutorials I was following came out? bc that guy had to extend classes and I Did Not. Thank You Fabric Access Wideners.
also I realized that for glazed terracotta stairs. you would think I'd need to do some weirdo shit to work around extending 2 classes at once but actually ? what the hell does glazed terracotta have that stairs don't. stairs already have the facing-esque behaviors I care about. I'd rather have the textures Look Good Alone than connect to each other the same way the ones on the full blocks do; they'll stand out as a focal point better. and like... not have WAY too much going on. placing stairs is already such a nightmare half the time. & if I want them to not be pulled by pistons I can just copy and paste that part.. it's fine
it will maybe be an annoying amount of Pixel Art Work but I at least have my general workflow for textures set up since I was testing out "double slabs are visibly separate like smooth stone" with the plain terracotta. so. !
having THAT thought made me also think that as long as I'm doing weird stuff with the glazed Shapes I may as well have the slabs be one-off patterns too ? it would be cool to have the sides look completely different. something you could use to Outline Stuff. & if you doubleslab them you get .. maybe something centered where the Predominant Colors are switched around compared to the normal full block, or something. MUCH to think about
#rbsmods#hi i got a computer that can actually run stuff & now I'm slowly re-acclimating to modding#so I'm starting simple. WELL not that flowers arent simple to me at this point but#building blocks are needed on my server so building blocks i will create

ohhh dope they're putting in message reporting. awesome. minecraft servers definitely didn't already have tools in place to locate and ban scumbags. we were just waiting on exalted merciful michael soft to implement the thing that made the entirety of social media, where it actually unironically has some justification for existing, bad. neat
