    Seeking: Getting Started Guides

    I small guide using different configs would be good, such as a intro mining setup, a regular farm or tree farm setup, or a base defense setup, etc.

    Seeking: BuildCraft Gates & Pipe Wires guides

    Hey all, We are looking for some guides covering the function and usage of BuildCraft's gates and wires. Some example guides would be: Normal Gates vs Autarchic Gates. AND vs OR Gates. Comparing the different kinds of gates (Regular, Iron, Gold, Diamond). Useful examples of gates and/or pipe...

    Buildcraft quarry (What is best way to power it???)

    Although only one is needed, two Combustion Engines using Fuel can fully power a quarry (each engine produces 5 MJ/t running on Fuel). Magmatic Engines produce 4 MJ/t and are also suitable. Stirling Engines can power a quarry, but at only 1 MJ/t each, you'd need multiple to get the quarry going...

    Mindcrack vs Direwolf20s Server Opinions

    Equivalent Exchange, REI's Minimap, and Inventory Tweaks were recently added to the DW20 pack. (http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/direwolf20-pack.4829/)

    Iron Tanks - Adjacent?

    I think technically it's possible, but to do any extraction, you'd have to rebuild the tank back up again.

    When the updated FTB pack is released will you try to "recover" things from your old save file?

    Definitely starting a new world. It's actually fun to start fresh and punch a few trees. Allows me to take what experience I've learned and refine them in how I'm going start out this time.

    Seeking: Getting Started Guides

    I have to add that to please keep your guides simple, objective, and straightforward. When someone needs help, they want it easy to read, brief, and to the point. We are not storytelling and the extra 'fluff' makes it 'tldr.' For example, this is too much extra material: It can instead be...

    Here is some information: http://railcraft.wikispaces.com/Feed+Station+%28Device%29 Very useful device, however it knows no limits and will keep feeding and feeding to encourage breeding and breeding.

    Red Power 2 News

    I am glad for the news update. Good to have a timeframe on things, even if final dates are not given.

    Wiki Links....

    Right now, we're working on the 'This is X' and 'This is how X works,' so that people get a firm basis on each machine or item. We do have some examples to demonstrate how GUIs are configured or how to work a specific machine. Eventually I think we may have some sample optimal machine automation...

    Help with hooking up my quarry

    To my knowledge, redstone engines can no longer power a quarry through chaining. You have to use a stirling engine or better. Two combustion engines fully power a quarry, as do two biogas engines, though in my testing, using more than two of those engines will actually make it mine faster...

    Thaumcraft 3 in FTB Pack 1?

    Awesome, I'd love an all-in-one pack. At least then we could pick and choose which mods in there we want to delve into.

    How to reset Railcraft Iron Tank

    Good to know. I'm glad that Iron Tanks retain the fluid when I want to resize it, but didn't know at one point it 'lost' the fluid.

    EE3

    Agreed, I felt like EE2 was too easy. It was too easy to "make" a lot of diamonds, or ender pearls, or glowstone, or whatever else I needed on the spot. Once I started in FTB, it was much more challenging. I have to be more careful where and when I use my resources, what machine or step I will...

    Factorization barrels with Builcraft pipes

    Hmmm interesting. Definitely something I'm going to try next, since currently we have an old-fashioned loop sorting system, at least until Logistics Pipes comes out.
