non-redstoner solves a problem that was actually never a problem by using minimal amounts of redstone
basically it’s a launcher that just launches you into the sky if you don’t have that many rockets and also equips you with several things:
netherite boots enchanted with depth strider III and soul speed III
an enchanted golden apple
a singular rocket
an elytra
and a level 2 potion of swiftness
below you can find some images and descriptions detailing how the mechanisms work.
the mechanism at the top of the bubble elevator is simple enough (i dont know redstone so if i can build it anyone can). It’s a tripwire hook to detect when you rise from the water, an observer that outputs a redstone signal when the string is triggered and a sticky piston with a slime block attached to launch you from the water.
i built the corridor because i felt like it and it could definitely be lengthened if you needed to travel a great distance and then fly somewhere. The pods in the side contain dolphins for the dolphins grace boost effect.
and finally we have the equipper, underneath the pressure plate there’s some redstone that outputs a signal to the dispensers on top. Do note that the rockets are dispensed from a dropper and not a dispenser because otherwise the dispenser would dispense a live firework and you would die.
And that’s how i solved a problem that actually was never a problem in the first place with minimal redstone knowledge lmao

So, I decided I wanted to check out this modpack that had looked interesting, so I go and download the curseforge app (cause modpacks are kind of a pain to launch without a launcher... as in I'm not sure how you even do it)
Dear god, which a fucking monster. They've got fucking ads running all over the fucking place
Instadeleted it, you do no get to serve me ads under any circumstances, if you do fuck you, I'm not using you. You're not a website, you're an app, and if you're pounding me with ads regardless of what I'm doing, then I don't think you're secure (and even if you are fuck you)
So I've had to track down an alternative one called uh... GDLauncher. Can't say for sure, but so far seems much much better... seems like an opensource launcher that's just a launcher and that's it
Not that any of you play modpacks so not that this matters, but that curseforge shit was just so bad I had to complain

Any advice for setting up prism launcher? It is. Being difficult. And telling me I need java? Which I have? Ack?
it’s been a WHILE since I set up prism on my own machine, but some generic “you’re having Java problems” notes:
start by running java -version on your command line to make sure you have an install of Java in your PATH. what COULD be happening is that you have a Java install, but don’t have it in your PATH so prism can’t find it, or you think you have an install but don’t.
note here that Minecraft Java edition DOES come bundled with the Java version it needs, but that prism isn’t always able to recognize that; you will need a Java install generically for your machine as well.
if you’re getting a Java error while launching the game, you may have the wrong version of Java. Minecraft 1.18+ uses Java 17, rather than Java 8 or 11, and you’ll need to go to oracle’s website and install the latest version of Java 17 for your computer.
alternately, you may have your Java install on a path prism doesn’t recognize—find the Java install and tell prism where it is!
alternately alternately, you could be me and have no less than four different Java versions installed on your machine in order to perform a variety of tasks (look Java 8 is still REALLY POPULAR in the work world). make sure prism is pointing to the correct install.
also I know oracle’s website is terrible, this is because oracle sucks.
don’t know if any of these will solve your problem, but I wish you luck!

Server Essentials
Minecraft version: Java, 1.20.1.
Modpack: All The Mods: No Frills, V0.1.14.
System Requirements: No Frills is designed to be easier on your system than the full ATM modpack. I've allocated 8GB of RAM to the process, and I've never had any problems. If you're having trouble with lag, the folks on the All The Mods Discord have plenty of information on optimizing your system, and I've got a few tips myself.
Launcher: I'm pretty sure any modded launcher will work. I personally use Prism Launcher.
Server Address: thewertsearch.ddns.net. Remember to DM me your Minecraft username, so I can add you to the server's whitelist!
Rules: Aside from the obvious (no spam, no bigotry, etc), the only big rule is 'don't discuss Homestuck'. Even if we kept things non-spoilery, it'd be too easy for something to slip through the cracks!
Griefing and PvP policy: Only if everyone involved is alright with it. If y'all want to have a war, go nuts!
Schedule: I try to go live at least once a week, usually on Sunday evenings. Next game should be September 15th!
If anyone has any technical questions about setting up the pack, configuring the launcher, or understanding how the modded mechanics work, don't hesitate to ask! I'll probably add a FAQ to this post if there are a lot of questions.
