    Redpower Lags Client

    Are any of you experiencing fps drops in this thread also using barrels? Because for me, the barrels are the culprit in my base, not my redpower tubes or relays. I went from like 80 barrels to 150, and my fps started to drop pretty low after that.

    Help with FTB bukkit servers

    keepcalm is also working on some Forge mods that emulate bukkit functionalities, and a newer bukkitforge version http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/index.php/topic,3254.0.html I haven't tried to see how well it works yet

    I did a few lighting tests today. An Aluminium Torch lights as much as Glowstone or a Firefly (which is, about one square or so more than a regular torch). One interesting note however, was that the Soul Shard's Soul Crystal (not yet a craftable block) put out even more light that that...

    The secret is out: FTB is really Technic!

    This is getting out of hand. The title really is attracting trouble.

    I did just finished a comparison with the standard IC2 Reinforced Stone, and the results are about the same, with the stone protecting slightly less, but not by much, barely makes a difference. Edit: as a side note, Thaumcraft 3's totems are also very nuclear resistant

    Just did a test in creative for the shields. Mindcrack 8.0.1 Test 1 Setup: A 2x2x2 pile of nukes surrounded by a 6x6x6 Xychorium Shields hollow cube (single layer) with a lever + wire to activate them all at the same time. Results: Shields hold perfectly. Test 2 Setup: A nuclear reactor...

    The secret is out: FTB is really Technic!

    I think it would be better if the name was the same in both places anyway. Voltz is a catchy name.

    I am thinking: how much light do they actually emit compared to a torch? I never really checked as I tend to use wrath lamps, glowstone, glowstone lamps or redpower inverted lamps for my lighting needs. I will have to check that and compare.

    Forestry Tree Breeding.

    I want to breed the trees too, but having to get the right bees to properly (aka fast) breed the trees is a pain that I didnt really want to go through.

    For now, you can use the blocks as such: Mobs don't spawn on Xychorium blocks (nifty) Xychorium Plates are explosion resistant (tnt, creeper) Xychorium Shields are explosion resistant (nuclear) Aluminium torches that have a better radius than the regular ones Popcorn gives a short duration...

    Pack updates and new packs

    Tip: if the server or your install loaded your map even once while the mods were not installed properly, it will wipe out all your modded blocks and you will have to restore from your backup afterward. It doesn't matter if you got it to work after that, your map is already altered. You must get...

    Using crystal core to draw nodes to my Laboratory

    Yes. You need to break it and re-craft it. You should get back a good portion of the components, but not all.

    Emerald pipes

    Thanks for the link. From the picture in there, they seem to still need an engine to pump the items. *sigh* Having them being able to filter stuff though is nice.

    Emerald pipes

    So, I head they are supposed to be a sort of advanced wooden pipe. Anybody know how to use them yet? Buildcraft site didn't say much.

    Filler problems

    I thought the patch notes said the builder was disabled, not the filler?

    Filler problems

    Does the area you try to fill include bedrock blocks? They could potentially block/interfere with the filler since they are unmovable. Although I am not a filler expert, never really used it. Otherwise I am not sure, maybe there's a size limit in the latest versions?

    New Forestry wiki??

    Its new for version 2.0, so its a pretty new feature for everybody. I look forward to using them. You build a 3x3x3 structure (there's also alternative sizes like 3x4, 3x5, 4x4 and 5x5) using the new block, and it becomes a MultiBlock farm that can grow/harvest 4 different types of produce at...
