I just put a couple redstone energy cells in the output line from the steam engines attached to the boiler. Once they are full shut it off and you will have lots of MJ unless you are running something huge. Just turn it on once in a while to refill the batteries. Sure it uses more fuel to...

When using the redstone conduits when it connects to each machine you can hit that pipe with the wrench to switch the power on and off, so as long as you can see the connection you can fine-tune power for each machine. You can also do this at the redstone battery connection to turn off a whole...

That is true, I guess you are supposed to set up a tree farm with the logs going into a furnace and pump that charcoal into a steam boiler. Endless energy that won't explode. I've been running the boiler until two redstone batteries are full and then it lasts me for several days (real time)...

It doesn't seem to drain when there isn't a recipe showing in the grid. Also if you use redstone conduits you can hit the connection with a wrench and switch it so the power goes out of it while you aren't using it. Then hit it again when you want it to get power.

Java 6 works fine. Why not try it? In less than 5 minutes you will have a definitive answer for your machine, I have not tried Windows 8. I can tell you on Windows 7 I am using Java 6 with no issues at all. If I use Java 7 my crappy video drivers crash within seconds so I had to downgrade...

I found one in the overworld so they definitely exist there.

That is excellent news. Thanks.

That is nonesense. If you are going to standardize your configs, and you already have a pack released then why would you not USE those configs and standardize around them! Too many people found out the beta pack was going to be abandoned after putting a lot of time into it. Beta does not...

Maybe the vanilla ones do, but in the magic pack I had to put a world anchor in because my quarry that goes to a blue ender chest overflowed because my receiving ender chest was not in a loaded chunk.

The lightning wand is my new best friend! Sure it doesn't do massive damage but it makes me laugh everytime I electrocute a mob. Seems to have a lot of shots in it too, I've been using it for a couple of days and it is only down to half charge.

I don't think there is a down side to having a guide. After all if you want to have the fun learning yourself then just DON'T read the guide!

This is exactly what I've been thinking. So we have standardized IDs, ready to add in packs without issues, they already know the IDs of RP2 anyway since it has been in closed testing. What exactly is the benefit of not updating other modpacks that have major bugfixes?

IC2 1.110 for Minecraft 1.4.5 has been released so you can rest easy. http://forum.industrial-craft.net/index.php?page=Thread&threadID=8534

If you are on a top end gaming computer on single player, then no it won't make a noticable difference. However the ramdisk is faster than all other drives by an order of magnitude since it is as fast as your RAM. There is the huge caveat that a power loss means the loss of your data, but...

I found this problem as well with the blank profile. It happens when you change from wired to wireless since the encryption seems to be based on MAC address. As bad an idea as that is, it is worse since when you go back to the original MAC address the login is still corrupted. Also, why...

Minecraft benefits a LOT from a ramdisk. I have no idea why someone would claim otherwise. If you are running single player then the ramdisk on your own computer is an excellent solution to speed up disk access and since the entire map is dynamic and chunk loading/unloading is resource...

I saw that too. It also contained a ban list and I wondered who would be banned if I added it, but it was empty. :p

I have updated the launcher all the way and reinstalled and the user config gets corrupted on a regular basis. Often (but not always) after a crash.
