    Why do people like Thermal Expansion so much?

    Tinker's Construct Weapon/Tools - Simple and to the point.

    My favorite hammer is Thaumic Plate = +1 modifier Cobalt Plate and Head = fastest speed materials (if no thaumcraft then I use 2 cobalt plates) Manyulyn rod = high durability I add Auto Repair and stack redstone on the rest of the modifiers This gives me 27 - 33 mining speed (depending on...

    I've never had an issue with the item ducts keeping up.

    MFR codes harvesters to auto output to itemducts pipes and other inventories. Quarries are not coded that way. That works. Very well too.

    http://forum.feed-the-beast.com/threads/spacetoad-is-back-to-modding.38095/page-6#post-520348 thats one of many spots where people have been complaining. Including this thread. And of course Team CoFH wouldn't.. or at least I have never seen them do anything like that... I tend to trust people...

    Thermal Expansion 3.0!!! No More Beta! Thanks KL!

    And if BC was a closed source mod without an energy API for people to hook into I would agree with the analogy. Thats why people don't do converters for Factorization. Neptunepink has made it clear by not making an energy API that he doesn't want people messing with his energy system. But an...

    Thermal Expansion 3.0!!! No More Beta! Thanks KL!

    Conduits are the transformer basically. And the issue most people complaining seem to be upset about is that TE3 doesn't allow BC or Eu to directly power its machines. But none of the mods that add transformers allow the other energy system to directly power their machines. None of them. Try...

    TE makes steel.... 1 iron 4 coal or 2 pulverized coal in an induction smelter if you have steel on and no steel mod available.

    What Would Make MFR Balanced?

    Btw Ticon tools are way unbalanced compared to vanilla. And IC2 laser drils... zomg OP. And immibis's liquid xp.. good heavens dude thats incredibly unbalanced compared to vanilla enchanting. And we probably shouldn't look too closely at bees that can give you every resource in the game, or...

    Thermal Expansion 3.0!!! No More Beta! Thanks KL!

    And again why is no one yelling about Rotarycraft adding all the power types but only using its own power for machines? Why is it only wrong for TE3 to be using its own power for its machines and converting its power to be used for other mods machines? Rotarycraft, Railcraft, Forestry all add...

    Why do people like Thermal Expansion so much?

    As a start I am not the type player that likes to make a machine to make a machine that makes a machine that makes a part for an item that makes a machine that does what I need. With that in mind for me TE3 is intuitive , easy to use, does what I need without having the feel of moving too fast...

    Thermal Expansion 3.0!!! No More Beta! Thanks KL!

    Except the BC team already adds 2 MJ - EU converters and a EU- MJ converter without allowing EU to directly power their machines. So if its ok for them to add a conversion to another power network but not allow that power network to run their machines why is not ok for TE3 to do the same? Is it...

    Thermal Expansion 3.0!!! No More Beta! Thanks KL!

    I don't understand the whole BC thing. Railcraft adds a steam turbine which outputs 200 EU/t . Forestry adds an Electric Engine that converts EU to MJ, and a Biogenerator that makes EU directly.... Last I checked I can't hook up a solar panel to a rolling machine and expect it to function. Or...

    Why do people like Thermal Expansion so much?

    Cause I am a lazy moderator and missed him in the search for mod devs to give banners to.. and he didn't poke me and go "I wants my banner"

    What Would Make MFR Balanced?

    Thats why I think balance should be left to configs. A player can change the configs to increase difficulty the way feels best to them. Admittedly I am biased but thats what I did with MF2. Its the whole point of MF2 is balancing a set of mods using configs. Blood Magic currently sticks out a...

    Why don't people like IC2 anymore?

    It took me 6 hours to get to having a compresser, macerator, metal former and extractor and powering them.. with me already having all the materials I needed. Just making all the parts. And I had a full AE setup with autocrafting... I had to program way too many tiny components. I like...
