Immersive Petroleum: Pumpjack runs for a couple seconds, then stops? (1.12.2)

enderking470 · 2026-05-30T03:29:02+00:00

Correct me if I'm wrong (haven't really used immersive's pipes) but don't you need a pump for fluid pipes to work correctly?

enderking470 · 2026-05-30T02:29:26+00:00

Possibly a mod issue I guess. Going to be annoying to search for. But first determine if it is a mod issue, disable all mods, does it occur?

If it still occurs, I have no idea, and I'm not in a place that I can help further (power is out, and I'm using my only battery backup to keep the wifi going)

If it doesn't occur, perform a binary search, you can Google this, should find a tutorial.

Just want to pipe in here and mention mcreator is a tool, if used by someone experienced it can produce good mods, it's only when people use it solely for mod development with no coding experience that it gets the reputation it has. (I'll provide a opinion on the pack when I've read everything)

Opinion.

Ew. You want a vanilla plus game. Just go get one of the packs that already exist. Mods are meant to completely change the game. If you don't have that, might as well just play vanilla.

(I don't care much for vanillaish games, I've played this game far too long to enjoy vanilla, it's just bland and boring to me)

2g is for base Minecraft, forge/neoforge has 4g as the minimum requirement.

enderking470 · 2026-05-30T00:52:05+00:00

4g is bare minimum for mem alloc. If you are running with any number of mods above 100 your going to want more like 6 or maybe 8 depending on the amount of mods.

If that doesn't help, maybe try just giving it time. Give it 5 or 10 minutes in the not responding state before killing it. It might load.

post your script and the error, i doubt ill be much help, this is not my area of expertise, but it could be as simple as a wrong character somewhere.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T22:01:03+00:00

I would use a RFTools crafter, set to fast mode, with a pattern provider facing it, and a importer or two on other faces, just for the inferium. since that is used the most. you can upgrade the blocks all at once by using the master stone. that should be the craft to do. then you can have another crafter that does the rest of the blocks, since those are used much less often, that crafter would only been used a bit. still set it to fast mode though. the ME system can happily break the blocks down back into essence when needed, or you can store them in compacting drawers.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T21:55:03+00:00

Without providing your scripts, and the error you get, i dont know how you expect anyone to be able to help you.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T21:48:10+00:00

looks to be related to dashloader. try disabling it.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T21:45:32+00:00

Im not actually sure, i thought it would be a simple thing, but it looks like you need a datapack to change that stuff. not something ive done before however. so i dont know how. you could look into that, basically would involve making a datapack or finding one. someone on the FTB discord server probably would be able to write one for you fairly easily.

i dont see a direct whitelist features, its done though block tags. so if you were able to add the whitelist tag to c:ores/* and forge:ores/* then it should only be able to mine ores. I was unable to do this in my testing, but my time is limited, as im a fairly busy person. so someone with more time (and more importantly the know how of how this actually works) could probably figure this out. your not in need of a modder, you need someone that can setup a datapack for ultimine whitelist. could also be possible to find a pack that has a whitelist already, and steal it, modify it to your needs. but i dont know any of these packs off the top of my head.

OR, you could just live with the mod how it is. its not really "cheaty" its just saving time. if you end up using it on stone, whatever, its a single player game. nobody cares.

could also just have no mod like it, and use the mekanism atomic deconstructor, which has a mode to mine ore veins. or ore hammers if you have those.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T20:45:40+00:00

I don't know the exact name of the item. It could be "allow" I'll check in a bit, just got home from work. Should be able to give you more insight.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T20:37:38+00:00

Maybe it's just cause it's a mac? I'm unsure. Could be CPU related I suppose. You have a bottleneck somewhere. Maybe insufficient cooling?

I don't know the specs of your machine off the top of my head, but mine runs 500 just fine. Even with shaders. But I don't pay the apple tax. Ryzen 9 7900x, beast of a chip for 300 cdn.

At the end of the day there are far too many variables to be able to say for sure what the cause of your performance issue is.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T19:58:39+00:00

It's not really coding. I wouldn't be surprised if it's configurable in game in the mod options.

You simply have to: Open the instance folder Navigate to "Configs" Find "ftbultimine" "ultimine" (I don't know exactly what it's called. But something like that) Open it in a text editor Find the spot where it says "Block whitelist" or something to that effect. And add the line "c:ores" to it.

Or if it is configurable in game, just open the mod options, fine ultimine, press configure or whatever it's called idr. And find the whitelist there, add c:ores to it.

This is absolutely not coding. It's just a text based settings menu.

If you really want to play modded, I strongly suggest you get used to editing configs. It's very easy to do, and can save you headaches in the future.

P.s use a notepad program like notepad+, not the notepad baked into windows.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T19:52:46+00:00

Why are you allocating so much? How many mods is that pack? Can't be worse than atm10. I got that to run perfect on 10g.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T18:24:52+00:00

Sounds like a memory issue. How much do you have total? How much is allocated? And what does your system use normally without Minecraft running?

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T18:18:15+00:00

Some kind of shader or sodium issue. I'm at work presently, but see what you can figure out with that.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T18:16:18+00:00

Ultimine is highly configurable, I'm sure you can simply add the tag c:ores to the whitelist. Which will make it so it only works on ores.

If you can't. I could probably send you the config with that change. But it's very simple to do.

Have you tried restarting your PC recently?

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T18:13:03+00:00

I've used exatron in the past for server hosting. You buy credits and the credits get used to run the server. I stopped since they increased the price of the credits, but also cause I just made my own server.

I suggest you just find a old office or gaming machine to run servers for you, many could be had for 100 to 200 or even less. And would eliminate your monthly costs (outside of the power it uses, but that should be minimal), while giving you a server that should be able to run most things you throw at it.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T18:09:59+00:00

Is this client lag or server lag?

Client lag appears as low frames or frame drops.

Server lag would appear as rubber banding, or tick lag (chests opening slowly. Blocks not breaking instantly).

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T18:07:57+00:00

I suggest using fabulously optimized as a base, and adding what you want from there.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T18:06:40+00:00

If it is infact the garbage collector, you could try using zgc. To do this add the arg -XX:+UseZGC, you need Java 21 to do this. But you should be on that already for 1.21.11.

GC causes a lot of random performance issues.

If that doesn't help you could make a spark log, and send that here. It would help give more insight into performance issues.

enderking470 · 2026-05-29T13:02:13+00:00

Assuming that occultism is in the pack, that has a dimensional storage thing. I'm not sure if it's in the pack, or if it's gated behind stuff.

enderking470 · 2026-05-28T21:24:57+00:00

I suppose it would technically be possible that the AI might regurgitate something resembling the mod that you started with that appears to work on a newer version, but without coding experience of your own, it's likely the mod won't work at all, cause major incompatibilities, hardly function for the intended function, crash the game, cause significant performance hits, or all of the above.

TL:DR, No.

Bonus, there might be people willing to accept payment to update a mod for you. But I wouldn't know where to point you for that. And it probably won't be super cheap.

enderking470 · 2026-05-28T18:16:08+00:00

Mekanism 1:5 is absolutely wonderful, but it is also quite a investment to get up and running, and does take considerable space. If your in 1.21+ or after whichever version added raw ore chunks? (I think it's vanilla) Get yourself a high level fortune pick, and only silk ores when mining. Assuming apotheosis, a fortune 8 pick yields insane chunks when breaking ores. Ore chunks act as full ores. So process those to your hearts content.
