    Which magic mod to get started in?

    Aye, that is a little annoying, at times. Though, honestly, I feel the content by and far outweighs the occasional annoyance. Hell, it'd be worth it just for the tile accelerators alone. And the cool blocks. I will admit that it really helps if you know some basic code and read thru the...

    Which magic mod to get started in?

    Mind if I ask why? Mostly just curious, because its about the only magic mod I can play for more than 20 minutes without getting bored.

    1.8: what is holding you back?

    This is a debate, basically, over static linking vs dynamic linking. The problem with static linking is that, when you change the static library, you need to push updates to everything that depends on it. While for someone like McJty, who only has a handful of mods, this isn't a huge problem...

    Which magic mod to get started in?

    If the option of adding ChromatiCraft is out, then I'd probably have to vote Blood Magic. The problem I have with the others is that, by default, the barrier for entry into actual content is annoyingly long. If you do things right, your barrier for entry into BM is some food and vanilla...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    If memory serves, you can finagle some P2P thingies to infinitely expand your network while only using a total of 1 channel on the cable connected to your controller. I honestly don't remember how that works, but its the basic principle behind the Soaryn Drive.

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    Okay, that's easily the fanciest thing I've ever heard. Especially if you have it automated with visible piping so you can watch your molten metals whisk by. OOH! Use ExtraCells' fluid storage buses and a set of big, clear tanks to store your metals in molten form, using liquid crafting and...

    ChromatiCraft has an ability that puts you up to 30 health, methinks.

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    Rediscovered the late Troika's Temple of Elemental Evil. Tacked on Circle of Eight because the base game just doesn't have enough in it. I've forgotten just how effing brutal the random encounters can be. Sending a duo of sea hags backed up by 3-4 koapacinths and the same number of water...

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    Think that's crazy? Try it with maxed out (256x) ChromatiCraft tile accelerators. You can absolutely wreck through the EMC generation, then.

    I Derp, You Derp, We all Derp, What's your's?

    Just a wind turbine. Its enough to push it to one-tick operational speed, and that needs a bigger-than-normal pool of water to feed it. A 4x4x1 seems to be working relatively well, and a 5x5x1 would likely be ideal. Don't have enough infrastructure (not even up to making ethanol, yet) for the...

    I Derp, You Derp, We all Derp, What's your's?

    Forgot that a 3x3x1 pool isn't enough for a fast-operating RoC pump. Nearly caused disaster, since I'm using the water to power RoC steam engines, which do NOT take kindly to running dry. Put a couple of Ender IO reservoirs on my main water reservoir to act as a stopgap in case that happens again.

    MineTweaker/ModTweaker - A help and suggestions thread.

    AHA! I got it, thanks to a little decompilation work, I found out what I was doing wrong! The version of IE I'm working with doesn't have an addRecipe() method for the arc furnace that takes a string argument! I can now smelt flakes in the arc furnace! SUCK IT! For those among us who are...

    Honestly, I don't know how MT scripts index things, though on a second look, it does appear wrong. I'll try correcting it and see what it gives me. Hopefully, it works frigging logically.

    Self-Sustaining Closed-Loop Lava Turbine Generator

    With enough resources, the setup can theoretically scale infinitely, all you have to worry about is actually building the things and/or making room. Just dupe the setup a few times and you've got enough power for most reasonable uses. Just note that you're gonna need a LOT of liquid nitrogen...

    MineTweaker/ModTweaker - A help and suggestions thread.

    Aah, thankee. I'll fire up Minecraft and give that a go. Hopefully, that's what I flubbed up and not accidentally adding a gating material to the list. [ETA] Getting this, now: With this: mods.immersiveengineering.ArcFurnace.addRecipe( output, flake, null, 100, 512, [], "RotaryCraft...

    Mod Feedback ChromatiCraft questions and suggestions

    Define "farming." Do you mean simply pulling it from anywhere without having to mine it yourself, or making them renewable like wheat? I know the former is possible, the latter, however...dunno if that's possible or not.
