Ooh! Craters I'm familiar with :( Like how big of a crater? If I put it deep underground surrounded by obsidian maybe? What if I build it up around y200 near the top of my grape vines that I forgot to put fence and string supports for? I think I've got around 4 stacks of plutonium ore...

Oh, that's another thing I was going to ask about in here since I now have a double chest full of uranite, plutonium, and uranium 232 ore (i only killed myself with radiation poisoning once to get it too!). Are the IC2 nukes viable energy producers in InfiTech2? Big Reactors are cool and all...

Speaking of Thaumcraft. Has anyone tried storing essentia in AE2 ME cells designed for this? I'm having a bit of issues trying to figure out how to interface this. Do you point an ME export bus at your almbelic to withdraw the essence or do you have to still use warded jars? How about...

One of the first things we do after slaying the Ender Dragon is to set up a "ender ender" as low as possible a ways away from the main End island to spawn enderman at a high rate. Usually it's just a bunch of spawn pads with vines normalizing the drop distance to a killing pad. This is how we...

Albeit I'm playing on an old version of the pack, but Dimensional Anchors take no fuel at all in the version I play on. Jayson stated he thought it's silly to require fuel source just to keep a few chunks loaded so fuel use was disabled in the config. Would need someone on a current version to...

Ok, the item cannon seems to work great for sending Ender Quarry loot home, but I was thinking of making another ender quarry and setting it up in the nether :P

Is there a limit to how far an OpenBlocks item cannon can fire items? Are there any other methods to transport items across dimensions other than magic mirrors?

I still go caving because I enjoy it. I don't like mining out entire veins, so quarry :)

Yeah, I haven't noticed any particular pattern to where the various shards generate. It seems to be fairly random. Caving is a good way to find them. When I run my Ender Quarry I usually end up with stacks of all shard types regardless of the biome.

Yes, that as well. Although I think it does matter where you locate the spawner. Aren't the rules for spawning wither skeletons fairly strict in relation to nether fortress location? I had a powered eIO spawner running with wither skeletons for some time (prior to having cursed earth...

Cursed earth spawns mobs whenever the chunk is loaded. Player distance and render range are irrelevant, in SMP at least. I'm certain it works because we are using it now. The previous vanilla spawner with pistons and pressure plates required the player to be in render range. So we'd just afk...

While it may be possible to extract the inscriber form, in the long run due to the number of chips you'll need to create it may be better to make 4 assembly machines and dedicate one to each type of circuit, and another assembly machine to combine circuits together (no form)

Cursed earth causes mobs to spawn at a very high rate and disregards some of the standard rules of mob spawning ( player can be close). We get around the despawning problem by putting a Dimensional Anchor(chunk loader) there so that the spawner/farm is always running. Nether Fortress always...

I probably used the wrong acronym. By MFR I mean Forestry MultiFarm. For zombie Pigman farm we burrowed up to the top of the nether and found a thin spot in the bedrock and threw enderpearls to get above the bedrock. Then we built above bedrock pigman farms. At first it was just simple...

A few things I've found helpful: Anything enderIO seems really good. I use the SAG Mill to process my yellowrite ore, coal ore, and diamond ore. I also sometimes use it for redstone ore if I'm in a hurry and don't want to wait to go through the entire GT ore processing chain. The eIO alloy...

Yeah, apatite is sort of a pain to locate. I found my first vein of it in the nether. That vein lasted through hundreds of hours of MFR farm operation. I've since found 2 more veins in the overworld, both while flying around mountains/extreme hills. I always refer back to this...

Melting glass in a fluid extractor requires 40 EU/t to extract, which means you need a MV extractor to get molten glass. If you're trying to make tubes for an MFR farm at the LV era level I'd suggest looking into building a Thermonic Fabricator and running it off 3 EnderIO Stirling Engines...

Don't feel too bad. 3 separate people did this on our server. I made it 16 bronze plated blast furnaces in before I realized what I was doing.

I started breeding bees more seriously now that I've been able to produce clay bees with somewhat more reliability. I am curious about a few things regarding beekeeping. Is it worth it to build Alvearies? I've got about 5 stacks of royal jelly now and about 6 apiaries of Imperial bees...

We're on an older version of the modpack. Probably a versioning thing. Also you might have binnie's enabled.
