    Seeking block/texture advice for flooring [aesthetics]

    Iron scaffolding doesn't look anywhere as cool in default texture pack though. For lights, why not go for the IC2 ones (luminators)? They look quite nice on industrial style.

    Factorization processing. Is it worth it? Also, a concept.

    I have never played around with factorization (yet), but doesn't the crystalizer processes up to 5 stacks at once? Or was I mislead and it's 5 items at once? In the first case, it would mean 5 stacks of precessing at once, putting down the time per item to very little time per item (less...

    Fast Transport

    We gave you no less than 8 different possibilities. If you still don't like any of them for what you want, then why not convert your pathways to waterways and use a boat system? It can go pretty fast if setup correctly.

    Fast Transport

    ice? Depending on your surroundings, aerial faith plates could be a way too.

    router question

    There is actually the 1.0.2 that is 1.4.7 last version, but until it is pushed to "recommended", I don't think I will bother, because that usually means that there are problems worked on.

    router question

    Ah, this question... The answer is simple, and one that nobody really wants. The fact that it puts the same amount in your barrels and in your chest is "working as intended", sadly. I first thought that a "thoroughness upgrade" would solve that, but no. If you search a bit on this forum...

    IC2 is slowly dying out ?

    IC( and IC2) was one of the first "industrial" mods, and it grew quite a lot in the first months from its creation. While the mod basically introduced maceration, and gave a whole new power system, it has seen very few evolutions in the last year. Other mods have made vast improvements on the...

    House Ideas

    My current house was wrecked to pieces, so showing would not be of any help, but I found a concept that makes my bases feel a lot better than the default boxes we all do sometimes. I try to find mountains, and carve a stairway from the bottom to the top, but taking turns for every floors, so...

    why can't I make a lapis blocks?

    Sadly, I did, but really... Ok, next time I won't bother even posting, because obviously NEI is either buggy for him or he doesn't want to know how it works.

    [q]How to get imperial bees?

    I tend to prefer using the percentages from the bees wiki, because it gives me way more basis Like imperial giving the comb with 20% chance, where the majestic has a 30% chance. It also helps to be noted that dripping combs give actually quite few "honey drop" item, the main product from it...

    I did bee math! (Now with more usability!)

    Ok, so the main point for your math was that every bee tick, they would produce 2 combs and 1 silk. Seeing as your math isn't technically wrong, shouldn't we think the other way around? I assume that either your base numbers are wrong, or that you assumed a "always 4 frames" situation. For...

    [q]How to get imperial bees?

    If you are going for alviaries, you would need quite big sums of wax, so having a bee that produces honey and wax is not bad at all. After a very short while, what I missed to really launch alviary production was wax, by a very large margin, followed by honey, because my production for the two...

    Can you automate a quartz grindstone?

    Wait, turtle tools that break? That gives a way to recycle old turtles by "removing" their tools and putting other ones on it. As long as the durability is at least that of the tool, it's not bad.

    i think i have a wisp problem....

    Oh, these images are so pretty. Too bad that they hurt like hell when in large numbers, because it would be really nice to live in a place with nice lights like them.

    [q]How to get imperial bees?

    Rocky is actually not the best base for bees, as they have that nasty 1x drones. You need to check that trait too when making your pure, because breeding is way harder when your queen only produces 1 drone. One could say that enough breeding to make a pure would also get rid of the trait, but...

    [q]How to get imperial bees?

    He is asking how to purify, not how to breed pures. Purifying is when you start with non-pure bees. But yeah, always have a couple of pure for the species you need, they will produce new drones for you if they have traits that produce 2x or more (most species, except mineral ones and some...

    [q]How to get imperial bees?

    2 possibilities: First is if you have pure drones of the species, you breed the queen for several generations with those pure drones. Keep using pure drones until your princess is pure. Second is when you just bred a new species, and have both a princess and a drone with at least 1 of the...
