    Pretty sure they never did.

    The most underused starting strategies?

    What? No vanilla items there. The turtle is ComputerCraft, and the quartz grindstone is Applied Energistics.

    How does one go about getting started with the Universal Electricity mods? I've started on the Resonant Rise modpack, and I want to explore UE, never having touched it before. I don't really have the faintest idea of where to start, though.

    Is there anyway to break into a personal safe?

    If you have Twilight Forest, go catch yourself a Naga and see if that can break it. It can break bedrock, so it might be able to.

    The most underused starting strategies?

    I've just started a Resonant Rise game. I'm trying to get the TC Smeltery up and running at the moment, to find out how it works. I think the first actual tech tree I'll go down is probably UE, as I've never used it before.

    Note also that the information given here for the Arcane Furnace is (I believe) for Thaumcraft 2, and as such is completely and totally wrong for the Thaumcraft 3 Infernal Furnace that's in the FTB packs.

    Not quite. If you have enough energy, you can overclock an IC2 Electric furnace to one operation per tick. That does take a stonking amount of energy, though.

    Best way to create thaumium

    How is it quicker? You have another crafting step. Mine's one step :P

    Best way to create thaumium

    Still more expensive than my method - using thaumium doesn't use up phials.

    Factorization routers.

    Best way to create thaumium

    Best and cleanest way to do it? Thaumium and iron. Thaumium has more praecantatio on it than it takes to make it - if memory serves, one iron and four thaumium make five thaumium. It's a bit slow, but it's very clean. Note I could be slightly wrong on the exact ratios. It's definitely possible...

    Resonant Rise

    So I got it to the point where it's loading into Minecraft, but it won't generate a world. Here's the crash report (warning, long): https://www.dropbox.com/s/92zdc8zjk75myl5/MultiMC_Report_06-20-2013_13-15-59.txt

    Try shift-right click on the top face. Yes, GregTech machines are needlessly finicky about how you pick them up.

    Finished ThaumCraft. Now What?

    I was going to try automating TC production - had a few ideas as to how to do it - but then we changed servers. I might still get around to it at some point.

    ...I was killing them with a grinder. That's profoundly irritating behaviour. I want to automate everything, dammit!

    Do Wither skellies spanwed by the MFR auto spawner not drop skulls? I've probably ground through a couple of hundred of them by now, and no skulls to be seen.

    Design advice?

    Building with something other than the snow bricks might be useful, as they can't be microblocked or turned into slabs or stairs. Trouble is, I can't find any light coloured blocks I like. Sandstone doesn't fit the aesthetic, and I find marble very ugly. Stone's darker than I'd like ideally, but...

    Calm down, there was one post between your question and your reminder. The board moves at the speed it moves at, nagging just pisses people off. Anyway, I'm pretty sure that disabling GT won't break saves. What it will do is to remove any GT blocks or items in the world - they'll just cease...

    Design advice?

    I'm playing on a server with friends. We're in a very snowy biome, and we're trying to make our buildings fit an Alpine village theme, not looking too out of place. Our main machine building is pretty much just a big cube at the moment, though. I want to make it look like a Swiss...

    How can you automate the MFR Auto-Enchanter? Trying to feed books into it. A router carries on shoving books into it even when the top slot is full, which destroys the books at a rate of knots. A hopper on top causes crashes. I can't regulate the router using gates because the gate apparently...
