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

    Ok, so I feel pretty dumb and I'd just like to share so someone else doesn't make the same dumb thing. I was upset that rocky bees weren't in the modpack. I finally looked at bees in NEI and realized that clay bees are what I want. I've been struggling with bees for weeks. Damnit.

    Transfer nodes appear to only be available once you've built a QED. I was looking at these last night (now that I have a functional QED). Are there any advantages of a transfer node over using the various EnderIO conduits? I couldn't think of any at first thought, but it's sort of new to me.

    Is there an alternative to cauldron then, beyond going whitelist for the server?

    I don't even know why. The guy who runs our server is in charge of such things, not me. His only comment on updating at all was from a few days ago: "Currently pulling the server files to see if updating is possible. Not to get any hopes up, with bukkit still on DMCA, cauldron isn't being...

    Oh, right I guess I should mention that our server is still on like 2.0.10 :( Heh

    I'm attempting to add night vision to a dark helm after energizing it. I've added other things to the dark helm (spectacles, goggles of revealing, capacitors), but I can't get it to take a Potion of Night Vision. I've tried both the standard Potion of Night Vision (3:00) and the extended, it...

    I use RailCraft iron tanks for my steam buffer, creosote storage, fuel storage, oxygen storage, and more. I'll continue to use this type of storage for a while, at least until I can reliably make bedrockium. And even then I'll still use the RC tank for steam buffer due to the availability of...

    Sweet! I upgraded my cobblestone JABBA to a cobalt level because, well once you get past diamond why not. But yeah, I don't think I will ever run out of apples. I'm turning apples into hootch. I've got a 5x5x7 RC iron tank of hootcch. I'm burning hootch in 6 eIO combustion generators to...

    Do JABBA barrels with void upgrade actually function properly if connected via EnderIO item conduit? For creosote, do you have too much creosote or not enough RC boilers? :P I was starting to look into liquid storage in ME, but I think storing all that oxygen in a liquid storage bus would be...

    - Wood and stone tools are available through vanilla recipes so you can get started down the GT path. All other higher tier tools, except for diamond, require GT recipes. - Ender Quarry is not an easy route for a quick miner. You can only craft it with a QED, which is NOT easy to get.

    Now that I'm on the cusp of building a QED I've realized that my most scarce resource is cobblestone (for bedrockium). Rock crusher is one way to alleviate this issue to automate cobblestone creation. Any others? I wanted to set up a BC Quarry, but there's some goofy permissions stuff going...

    Yeah, Ender Quarry is QED. We're not quite there yet :P

    I set up a BC quarry and fed it around 120RF/t (prior to a creeper sneaking up on me and destroying all my generators). But while the quarry was working it deployed itself and the mining drill started moving around. It gave the appearance that it was thinking about breaking a block, but no...

    The eIO tank is portable and maintains its liquid when moved. You can also fill buckets easily from it both through the interface and by right-clicking. I have one set up right next to my cauldron for easier dust washing in the steam age. The pressurized version isn't needed early on as it...

    Yep, if you want to put your steam machines flush against the wall like that you will be blocking the steam output port. Right-click the top with a gregtech wrench to change the output (so the dot is on the top of your forge hammer). Otherwise the device will only work for 1 cycle and stop...

    Curses, foiled again. So the next thought would be a magic mirror with a collection golem on the other side, but I believe those are fairly slow throughput. I suppose I could create a miniature AE2 network at the quarry site with a couple of 4k storage drives and connect that up, then just...

    Thoughts on the best way to power a BC Quarry? All the documentation I found on it says it takes MJ, which I imagine is not true anymore. If it's RF I could toss some eIO stirling generators or a combustion generator powered by hootch. If it's EU, I don't honestly know the best way to provide...

    Oof. Sounds like something to mess with in a SP test world, I guess.

    Only a year of lost college? :P Some days I regret dropping out of a top engineering school due to playing text games, but overall I'm pretty happy with where I'm at in life. Yeah, I think for an active reactor I'll buffer water through an iron tank that's sourced from at least 2 eIO...

    Nice going :) I did get some cyanite from SAG mill processing, but unfortunately most of my yellorium got processed by other methods due to my son seeing ore and just smelting it \o/ We've resolved that issue now though with a long talking-to. So a 5x5x5 active cooled reactor outputing to...
