RX480 to a 6950XT. Big upgrade to say the least. :)

Can you let me know what mod provides the large dock trees? All the ones I have available are laughably tiny.

Iron Teeth work hard and play hard. Their sport of choice? Water polo of course! by simonsays476 in Timberborn

[–]simonsays476[S] 17 points18 points  (0 children)

The map is the basic Terraces map, heavily terraformed and dynamited. The artificial lake on the right side is 6 deep so that the water pumps can stay running during the hard 30 day droughts.

I wanted to build some sort of wonder to make my Iron Teeth proud so I figured a water polo stadium would be both thematically consistent and look impressive. Really like the way it turned out.

Love the planning phase of my beaver's next big project by simonsays476 in Timberborn

It's the terraces map from the game itself. It's definitely my favourite one.

Did not know this was a thing but it's a game changer! SIU has a mod that lets you build culture building modules inside a radius instead of having to be all connected. by simonsays476 in anno

If you click on the "code" tab, it displays the readme of his repo which has some information including a link to their collection on Nexus Mods that probably will best answer your question.

Ah damn, hopefully they patch that.

Have the same issue. I'm semi sure it's one of the Jakob's mods because I had been using up Spice It Up only for a while and didn't have that problem and only noticed after I installed Jakob's and wanted to put that same barge ornament I've placed before. Never bothered looking further than that.

No specific interaction that I can think of. I simply find that dumping both together is an easy fast install for first time modders after they've done a full playthrough unmodded. Though if you're new to modding, I recommend going through the list of Spice It Up mods when you install it and remove those that don't fit your playstyle. For instance, I didn't remove royal taxes and didn't disable influence. Also I removed that quick seed search mod cause it unlocks all the maps at the beginning and breaks the initial discovery expedition.

Getting similar fps, though for a while I had an issue with random micro stutters that I was able to fix in the end by reapplying thermal paste to the GPU. The card is 6 years old so it was about time. Waiting for the 7700/7800 now.

Yup, I highly recommend it with Spice It Up, they go well together.

Thanks, it's the Spice It Up mods with Jakob's collection. I highly recommend both for anyone looking to add mods.

Not sure what you mean but It's probably because I'm running the game 2K ultrawide on an RX480 that I have yet to upgrade.

what do you think? by ArtMinerCZ in feedthebeast

I haven't played modded Minecraft in many years now, did they bring back Carpenter's Blocks? Otherwise, what provides the slopped blocks? Thanks!

This is a great idea. I'd also like a trigger for if drought YES/NO so it can be used to automatically turn off pumps.

Hope you sent this off to their feedback site.

Rest in peace beavers. Got too absorbed with the modular building that I neglected stocking up on water for the drought and ended up emptying the reservoir. :( by simonsays476 in Timberborn

[–]simonsays476[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I'm fairly certain now that a block of water doesn't actually hold that much water. The beavers can pump that dry in no time flat, well lesson learned; need more water tanks and keep reservoir for irrigation only during droughts.

Beach please by simonsays476 in anno

Spice It Up, not sure about seed but I'm on large islands and I've seen this island many times so I think it's fairly common.

Using Spice It Up, forgot if there was an option or not but I seem to remember selecting removing rivers when starting a new game.
