    1.8: what is holding you back?

    While I can't attest to this personally, as I've yet to play 1.8 as I do not touch vanilla, putting each dimension in its own thread, if that is truly what has happened, is a huge step in the right direction. While it might not be as noticeable for SSP, on servers this could increase the...

    Wait...what? Shit, I need to pay more attention, then. I forget, does it work with alloying, too?

    Wait...you can use a reservoir to make boosted shards? Could it be done with alloys, too? If so, happy friggin day, I no longer need that floodgate!

    If you've got a quarry, I assume you're talking Buildcraft, so you could use a floodgate. Just cordon off the top of the area with something like dirt that you can easily remove later, then plop the floodgate down and feed it water. Let it alone for a while (for such a big hole, probably an...

    I was wondering what was doing that...not that I'm complaining, mind you, I quite prefer the new End, but I was curious as to what was doing it in my pack. Figured it was either that or DE.

    If memory serves, the typical environmental temperature is around 30C. Getting to 0C either requires high altitudes or cold biomes. Also, lack of insulation can cause heat to leak into the environment.

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    Okay, that's actually pretty brilliant. Combine that with tile accelerators, and you can farm stacks of livingwood/rock with ease. Neat!

    1.8: what is holding you back?

    Still, though, if its got most of it, that's better than most other solutions out there. If nothin else, it'd probably provide an interesting way to do ME storage without the ME.

    1.8: what is holding you back?

    Never got around to playing with it, but if it can do better than walls of drawers or chests and has some of the neat facilities like centralized access and persistent crafting, then it'd be a strong contender, if nothing else.

    1.8: what is holding you back?

    I am relatively familiar with it, and while very convenient, it doesn't allow me to manipulate (input, output, and view) contents all in one place. I can do I/O in the controller (out via piping), but I can't actually view and grab my items manually like I can in AE. I do use it, but there are...

    I think the OB sprinkler uses bonemeal effects, which doesn't work on some crops.

    1.8: what is holding you back?

    I seriously hope so, or something comes along that does what it used to do. Sorry, but I absolutely hate chests with a passion. "there AE2 for 1.8.9, But hasn't been released yet" -- CitiesXL2815

    1.8: what is holding you back?

    Queer, I'm seeing a post on an issue from on the AE2 GitHub (dated about three weeks ago) that seems to indicate the exact opposite.

    Wait, there's not going to be an AE for 1.8? ...Mind if I ask why, exactly?

    Yeaaaah, feel ya there. Kinda helps that I'm anal enough to do it by nature, but still. Been watching a lot of SG-1 lately, so I keep reading things in Jack O'Neill's voice.

    Ya know, for some reason, I find reading Reika's changelogs to be oddly...calming. I've no idea why.

    Ooh, I like that one, I'll have to mark it. Though, I've never really gotten the hang of exchanger-based reactors...I'm never sure exactly how many exchangers I really need, nor how many boilers they can operate.

    Mine are usually a 3x3x4 put above Y-128 to take advantage of some slight environmental cooling. Even in deserts, they're good with two rows of boilers, but they do run a little warm. Single one of those setups give you enough steam for an HP turbine with a little extra, its quite handy.
