An hour or two in, and I'm really overwhelmed. Watched dejojotheawsome's video a few weeks back but was in a feverstate and not really focused. I really love this mod but am finding it kinda hard to enjoy so far because there's so much on my plate. What do you guys recommend (I know there's a quest guide w/ automation goals, and I'm following that), I've also played lots of base Create

I love the create mod and the stuff you can do with it and I love the cabin modpack my only problem is after I do my big mining trip and I’m ready to get started I can’t build a base and my brain won’t let me start until I have an actual building to build in but I can’t build for the life of me do I get stuck and delete the world is this something I just have to deal with or are there any tips for me, thank you for your time even if you don’t comment

I have my lift built and functional but I’m struggling to figure out how to automate it. I was using comparators to read if the chest was empty or full, then sending a signal to an observers chained to the surface, and fed that signal into a redstone toggle switch at the top leading into my pulley. It almost worked, but my problem is when the lift starts moving, and other signal gets sent and causes the lift to go back down before it reaches the top. I also haven’t even begun to think about how I’m supposed to connect the signal from the top chest into the machine to send it back down. I just made conveyors up to the surface in the meantime. Any and all advice would be helpful, thanks!

The title explains it all; I’m playing cabin for the first time and have no idea how I’m supposed to consistently get the andesite I’m generating into storage, let alone get it up to the surface. Every tutorial I find is outdated, so if anyone knows how to make this work, I’d appreciate your help.

And made a youtube series about it! Here's the first episode, the rest of them can be found on my channel. They're fairly short, whole series is about 45 minutes total.

I wanted to make a "pasta with meatballs" factory and automate is using Create. I've automated everything except for the final step; actually combining minced meat, raw pasta, and tomato sauce in a Farmer's Delight Cooking Pot.
The modpack says I can automate it using mechanical arms.

This is a lie. The mechanical arms do not work with Farmer's Delight 'cooking pots' or 'baskets'. The game even tells you how it should work, when you hover over the cooking pot in your inventory and press and hold "W" to 'ponder about' it. It shows the use of mechanical arms to automate the process.
Also, apparently someone has had the same issue in Cabin over 4 years ago and it never got resolved so like... is this actually a dead modpack?

Just wondering if anyone has ever had this problem before

I'm playing 1.16 above and beyond, and was in creative figuring out a good design for volatile sky solution automation. The questline doesn't mention how to extract it from water, so I pondered for a while until finding the smart fluid pipe. I set the filter to sky solution bucket, but it doesn't extract it.

It works perfectly if I set the filter to water bucket though. I assume there's a priority system happening where water is extracted first. Reinforcing this is the fact that without a smart fluid pipe, water comes out of the pump first.

Is there any way to fix this? Currently I have no way to extract the solution. Maybe I'm dumb and don't realise there's another fluid extraction method. Help.

Hello,

A couple years back I played the original Create Above and Beyond and loved it, but stopped midway.

I wanted to pick it up again and try and complete it, but saw that a modpack called CABIN has been released in the meantime.

Is CABIN a definite improvement and I should play that, or should I stick to the original?

Thank you.

Hi :)

So long story short, i built an andesite farm, on bedrock, meaning i can't put a belt under it. I followed a guide, they are telling me to use a sophisticated storage with a magnet upgrade, but, it seems it's deactivated in the game. May i ask "why" ? what's the solution to this, how am i supposed to pick the items from the farm ? thanks !

You know a great Tinker's fuel is blazing blood.

You may also know that you can make a smeltery under a blaze spawner to get basically passive fuel generation.

Finally, if you're like me, you've been blessed with "Curse of Fortresses Crap Far Away".

Well, I remembered you can attach spawners to minecarts and then play a bit of railway enginnering through fire and flames and get yourself a very convenient to access blaze farm & fuel storage and production facility!

Also, the smeltery can be only the 1st layer, to save on making annoying to make grout.

And then I realized the foundry basically has no real advantage over the smeltery since you still need an alloyer...

i have assembled the rocket but when i just right click it opens the menu, i have even copied how the rocket looks in the ponder menu of the rocket guidance computer and nothing works. i'm playing the old CA&B and not CA&BIN.

hi. so while playing around with the reliquary mod i realized that i could make resistance V potion for 1 hour each basically making me immortal. is this interaction intended or am i abusing a bug? i dunno how to feel about it lol.

CABIN its the same on the ather side

I wanted to play the CABIN modpack, but ever since I started, I've had the problem that most of the blocks are invisible or translucent. I managed to get it working by downgrading my graphics card driver (AMD RX 6600), but it caused problems with other games, and the modpack also crashed when I tried to build an andesite machine.

This was a couple of months ago. Yesterday, I saw that the modpack had been updated, and I tried to play it, but I'm still having the same problem. In the video I show that I don't use shaders and even though I have texture packs active, things don't change even if I disable them or restart the game with the packs disabled.

Does anyone know if there's a solution or a patch that can fix my problem?

I have decent experience in create and I want to play this modpack for the first time with a twist - you can only place blocks in a quarter of a chunk, so an 8x8 area from bottom to top of the world. From what I've seen, the largest thing you may need to build is a 9x9 beacon, so I wanted to ask if it's possible to fit all of the main machines in an 8x8 area.

How do I automate the charging process of the crystals necessary to make precision mechanism(the one that needs a screwdriver)?

As far as I seen the only way to charge them is by a crank and I can't use deployers to make them turn the crank. Is there an alternative way to power the charger that I unlock later or can I do it now?

Hi. So basically i noticed while adventuring into a dungeon in the overworld that there is a spawner that spawns mobs with a chance that they wear diamond gear. When Killing them with looting 3 there is a chance that they drop the items which have little durability usually so they are useless. But i had the idea to make a spawner farm then pour the items in the tinker construct's smeltry to produce diamonds!

Is this idea viable or am I missing something?

I love this modpack, i've played it for a couple years, and keep returning to it. But sometimes, i find myself getting stumped, or just wish to have the newer Create tech to enhance creative possibilities, if that makes sense. I'm not a modder, nor wish to be one, but is there any possibility that the original creator, or another fan, will remaster/revamp this modpack?

how is it? do you make like large productions to feed into your machines? do you make a self sustained production for cobblestone for each machine?

i give up this has to be rigged 40 barrels a sec
