    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    Will that option to reset The End work on a server? I don't know what a Temple Caller is... And we're pretty much in the same place, I'm making my HSS Coils today. Yesterday, I mined the last ore vein that was on my "must-have" list of materials (Neodymium), so yeah now it's time to change...

    Pretty sure no pipe is used for "Level 1" (controller level). Here's how I know... Every time I use my Miner, I place it atop the first layer of ores I'm preparing to mine. And, me being me, quite a few time I get the Miner all set up, whack it with my Hammer to start it up, and I see ores...

    What happens to my Large Diesel Engine if its running and the Battery Buffer attached to the output is full and the power has nowhere to go? Will it blow up? Will it stop and wait for the batteries to drop? Or will it just keep on running and wasting fuel but nothing else bad will happen...

    I'm gonna call BS on "The Ender" sword from EnderIO whose tooltip states "increased skull drops". I just went thru one whole sword, killing probably 300-400 Endermen with ZERO head drops. I read elsewhere that putting Looting III on the sword will increase head drops, so at least I earned...

    Ender IO has lamps that say they light up a large area, in fact I've been working on Ender IO all day and that's partly the reason why. Sick of working in the dark all the time with the bats. LOL Haven't made any yet tho to try em. Since I'm on the subject... have any of you used a Power...

    With the Demonic bee involved, I suspect the breeding must take place in the Nether, altho that's not normal for a Lapis bee... but then again this isn't a normal modpack (thank goodness for that!). Haven't done bees yet so I don't know for sure, but you didn't mention biome which is why I'm...

    My Advanced Miner II got me 712 stacks of Crushed Redstone Ore (because it pulverizes into 10 crushed ores insead of the usual 2), which means I now have to process almost 50,000 crushed ores. Wow. Since I know I cannot possibly ever use 712 stacks of Redstone Dusts, what should I do here...

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    Yeah, that was my initial plan, but reading your post makes me re-visit it, because 10 Bedrockium Drums (taking up a gigantic 10 blocks of space LOL) seems a much better idea than my ten full-size steel Railcraft tanks which takes up a 3x3 chunk by 10-blocks-tall volume of space. Talk about a...

    Yeah, my Distillation Towers processing Heavy Oil puts out so many of the tiny hydrated coal dusts I just have no clue what to do with them all. My first thought was to do what you did, turn them all into diamonds... but I soon realized I don't have enough Flint... and then I realized I don't...

    I almost forgot what I came here for... LOL I just macerated a stray Cobaltite Ore that was lying around in a chest, and to my surprise the dust didn't stack with all my other Cobalt dusts... sure enough, the recipe changed, adding Arsenic as well. So my question: What is Arsenic used for...

    Yeah good point, Pyure's preference for the SAG Mill means we have to mine the blocks by hand, in order to avoid the automatic Pulverizing done by the Advanced Miner II. I've really grown fond of my Miner II, she's a beauty. :D But yeah it's not that difficult by hand - Ruby, for instance...

    I'm on modpack v3.2.18 and the current is v3.2.19.1 so I'm not far behind altho you're certainly correct to wonder about me. :) It's great to know there will indeed be a use for Aluminium, and as you probably suspected, I have not started on Galacticraft yet. But it's been on my mind now that...

    Good point, I did forget about the Advanced Circuits you don't need with that Platinum recipe, and that certainly changes the equation somewhat... but still not enough to make it a "good" recipe in my humble opinion. But not all recipes are equal, and perhaps that recipe does help those who DO...

    There are only two Overworld ore veins I haven't found yet. One is Platinum (thus my conservative views on that material at the moment), and the other (oddly) is Lapis Lazuli. And yet, despite no Lapis, I had already mined enough of it just from random small ores to make 64 Lapotron Crystals...

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    Thanks for the tip. Yes, I did see that but I judged it to be a terrible recipe. :) I'd rather not use up Platinum, and also, you only get one Lapotron Crystal from each Exquisite sapphire. If you hammer the Exquisite into two Flawless Sapphires, you can make two Lapotron Crystals. That...

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    Related to my last post, I discovered the recipe for Lapotron Crystals that uses a Flawless Blue Sapphire and quarried a vein to take advantage of that recipe. Very handy indeed. But now I'm wondering what to do with all the non-useful products of the Sifting Machine? I turn all Exquisite...

    It is def awesome, I filled four of the 100 million EU Lapotron Orbs (IV level battery) in less than an hour and it only used around 1 million mb of Nitro-Diesel out of my full railcraft steel tank (which holds 20 times that much). It's an absolute game-changer for me since I've been running...

    Edit: resolved Also, I wasn't gonna post my other question but since I'm here... can the Oxygen Input Hatch for the Large Diesel Engine go on the top, next to the Muffler? Or does it have to be located on the sides?

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    I've had my eye on teleporters since I finally am ready (almost) to run my spiffy shiny new Large Diesel Engine with oxygen feed for a sweet 6144 EU/t (3 amps of EV, basically) and could probably afford the power cost to run teleporters. I'm not sure I understand the edit - are you saying the...

    Whoa, what? (checks NEI) Alrighty then! :D Second question, for anybody to answer... my Oil Drilling Rig began pumping Heavy Oil at 704 mb/cycle, and it's now down to 480 mb/cycle. If it's your well, when do you stop, pick it up and move somewhere else? At what mb/cycle? I've filled...
