    Railcraft 9x9x8 tank

    Larger storage with a reasonable cost is never OP!

    A rough collection of responses: RC Iron Tanks fit into low-ceiling buildings better. It's important to note how much space is used with a higher count of wooden waterproof pipes and resources used making more autarchic iron AND gates. It's rather selfish to expect people to have complete...

    Help me with Austere bees please

    Huh. Looks like they moved it from the default comb to the specialty. What speed do you have on them? Their default is Slowest and that could be why.

    Did you remember to put frames in your apiary?

    Best way to mine?

    And if modifying the configs is highly unlikely? For the sake of all those who can't control the configs of the SMP server they play on, I can't accept "just add them to the list" as a viable solution. So, once again, are IC2 Miners working properly with all the mod ores? I've been completely...

    Best way to mine?

    Are IC2 Miners working properly with all the mod ores? I've been completely avoiding the IC2 Miner for a while now due to that and now you have me curious as to whether it's properly grabbing everything or not.

    What does YOUR Power Room look like?

    Hmm... interesting... I never thought of using cacti instead of reeds.

    GregTech

    After thinking the mod over, it seems like the best way to progress with GregTech is to never stop building resource allocation and take advantage of exponential gains. Unfortunately, pursuing that gameplay style could be detrimental to SMP servers or disallowed on some servers. The main reason...

    The best way to ascend/descend multiple levels?

    Aerial Faith Plates can be placed on walls and ceilings. Except, the ones placed on the ceiling in Beta A can trap you.

    Whether to grind through it or not is one decision. Whether to destroy the gameplay of everyone else on the server to achieve it is another. :x When you actually get the Matter Fabricator with those configs, you'll quickly realize that it'll still be faster to mine for the Iridium.

    Best way to get from Point 'A' to 'B'?

    3. IC2 Quantum Leggings on Ice 4. Chained Aerial Faith Plates (lol) 5. IC2 Quantum Leggings + Boots 6. High-speed Rails 7. Jetpack + Speed Potions 8. Rails IMO. Edit: Dedicated portal in there somewhere for SSP.

    Ranged Weapons

    Seems like the scepters need to completely run out of charges before the recharge recipes work. Edit: And they won't break when they run out.

    [1.4.2] Attempting to make a quarry..

    Sounds like your AA is in a diff chunk that isn't always loaded. How many engines? Edit: And what pipes?

    100% effective in SSP only.

    My opinion of it changed twice. At first, I thought it was stupid, because it did all sorts of weird crap rather cryptic. After learning it, I thought it was kind of neat. Now, after grinding through over 4 stacks of Iridium, uuugggghhh. I'm tired and giving up on it. There's nothing neat...

    Penultimate Rubber Tree Harvesting Serious Debate Thread for Serious

    Depends on how many skeletons I had to thrash up castlevania-style. I don't overtap at all, since it burns through regular treetap durability pretty fast. But, if a rubber tree has less than two rubber spots on it, I usually cut it down and replant (with bone meal).

    GregTech is a challenge... but it's not a fun challenge.

    GregTech's changes and Ore Gen

    Right. If they updated FTB, we would have more Tin and Copper. Then if we updated again and ended up with the nerfed Bronze output, Tin and Copper would once again be scarce. I'm trying to make sure the FTB devs acknowledge the change GregTech did. Whether or not they know about it is still a...

    GregTech's changes and Ore Gen

    It's very bad. I'm on my third run-through of SMP progression, each time so far up to Matter Fab. I've been short on Tin every time, avoiding cans/cells, extracting EVERY extra cell I get from the Indy Cent, and using buckets wherever possible. STILL short on Tin. This third run, I currently...
