    AE2 Old school Jabba wall still a thing?

    Yes. The reverse is also true - the barrel wall doesn't need subnetting (well, doesn't need one subnet per 8 devices) if you're not stingy with controllers.

    [1.7.10] Material Energy^4

    No, it won't work. All the quests and reward bags that reference Fluxed Crystals will be broken, for example.

    AE2 Old school Jabba wall still a thing?

    I wouldn't say the only way; the normal way, you need one dense cable per 32 barrels. A 5x5x5 controller seems typical; you can get over 5000 barrels out of that (didn't calculate the exact number). But most people aren't going to have anywhere near that many barrels, so they're not going to...

    [1.7.10] Material Energy^4

    Fluxed Crystals (in the 1.0 version) made a change that makes it count as an entirely different mod with entirely different blocks. So Forge sees that you removed a mod (which you had blocks from) and added a new mod with new blocks (that happen to have exactly the same names and textures, but...

    Easy way to automate AE2 Inscribers?

    I seriously don't get why people have a problem with inscribers. Here's the simplest setup I can think of: Throw down 7 inscribers, one for each recipe. Put the plates in. Export ingredients and import results on the appropriate sides (matches the GUI). Put level emitters on the 4 inscribers...

    Easy way to automate AE2 Inscribers?

    Just use export busses to keep redstone and printed silicon in the middle and bottom slots. Then use an interface with a pattern to say that 1 calculation circuit -> 1 calculation processor, on the top. Then use an import bus to pull it out. Don't put the redstone or printed silicon in the...

    Ae2 derping

    Set the pattern terminal to processing pattern mode, by clicking the crafting table icon.

    [1.7.10] Material Energy^4

    If you update to the latest fluxed crystals, all Fluxed Crystals stuff will disappear, which will probably screw up quests. Use this fixed version I made specifically for ME^4, which should be compatible.

    New Big Reactors simulator

    Download. Requires Java 8. Here's another Big Reactors simulator, because the online one is very laggy, at least for me. It also supports more block types. Here's a screenshot. Currently missing features: A control rod slider Mod pack selection (for non-default configs)

    Game Changer or No?

    I should probably post this here: http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/mcdt-minecraft-forge-plugin-for-eclipse.85139

    What theme of packs would you like in 1.8

    They've specifically said that was to show off Visual Studio's addon capabilities, not to support modding in any way.

    What would YOU change about BuildCraft?

    Just to be extra-annoying, replace the coal ore with the water, and fill in caves with water, maybe? That way it's more of a last resort thing that "uses up" that area (like a quarry for oil, although quarries aren't a last resort). You'd probably want to run it far away from civilization. On...

    What would YOU change about BuildCraft?

    I seem to recall a bug back from vanilla 1.4 or earlier where items near the edge of the loaded area wouldn't tick, so wouldn't increment their despawn time counter, but pipes in the same area would still spit out items. That's the only issue I've actually experienced with item entities causing...

    What would YOU change about BuildCraft?

    The pipes look a bit too gradient-y, IMO. And I still think 32x textures are a bad default. (Fine in 32x texture packs, but out-of-place in vanilla Minecraft)

    Mod Feedback Thermal Series Design/Feedback

    Don't fluiducts already teleport liquids across a long distance? They just take a few seconds to completely drain before they can carry a different fluid.

    Ways for trading on bigger SMP servers.

    IMO a barter system is more Minecrafty, and runs into less problems with changing prices. Resources are naturally fixed to each other; maybe one machine is worth 20 iron ingots (or a range of 15-25 depending on the buyer and seller). But credits would change their value all the time, and people...

    AE2 automation question and an existing sorting system

    AE2 doesn't quite work that way. It's more like this: "I want a piece of Cobble!" -Pulls piece of Cobble from Barrel "I want a piece of Sand!" -Pulls another piece of Cobble from Barrel, Cobble goes into Pulverizer and becomes Sand "I want a piece of Glass!" -Makes a piece of sand if there...

    What theme of packs would you like in 1.8

    I'm not seeing how any of the points in the OP are related to 1.8.

    If you could add one thing to any mod...?

    Re SSD's, does it really matter? You can have 320 storage cells connected to one side of an ME controller, and most people have tons of unused sides.That's plenty of room already. You can even make it occupy only one channel through most of your network, with a pair of P2P tunnels...

    If you could add one thing to any mod...?

    And it shouldn't have any export configuration slots, both to avoid accidentally making the normal one obsolete, and to save room in the GUI.
