    About Thermal expansion 1.6.4

    The only thing I use IC2 for at this point is making diamonds from coal. Aside from that I don't touch anything in the entire mod. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    Dumb Tricks - Dumb/OP Mod Interactions Edition

    Lovely mod interaction: Geostrata regen/saturation crystals on either side of a Blood Magic blood altar. Surround the altar with self sacrifice runes and fly through Blood Magic in no time. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    About Optifine

    This might be true for you. It is not true for everyone. I cannot run FTB on my laptop without optifine. It's basically unplayable due to lag spikes. I won't say optifine gets rid of them completely...but with optifine it's more like one lag spike every ten minutes instead of ten seconds of...

    The Ultimate Tinkers Construct Tools

    It really seems like it would make more sense for the capacitor used to affect the amount of flux the tool can store. Like maybe with potato you would only get 50k, but with the highest tier one you would get like 600k. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    Monster and Ore Generation.

    I love the crystals. I've dropped a regen crystal and a saturation crystal right next to my blood altar. It took me a few hours and I'm already within striking distance of a tier 4 altar. I just need some weak blood shards to make the bloodstone and I'm there. The runes were crazy easy to make...

    Nether Woes - a couple of questions.

    ...except earth shards. Every FTB map I've ever played, I've had earth shards for DAYS. I'm seriously drowning in them. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    What do you think is the best mod pack?

    Monster has both. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    Name this structure?

    There's also a redstone lamp and a block of redstone in the roof. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    Direwolf 20: 1.6.4 {PUBLIC BETA} Crash issues

    Right, and I'm willing to bet your computer is about a thousand times better than my laptop. Optifine isn't made for you; it's made for me. And people like me *need* optifine to make this game playable. Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk

    Direwolf 20: 1.6.4 {PUBLIC BETA} Crash issues

    The only issue I'm having with Optifine is I can't install it with FTB. Whether that's a problem with Optifine specifically, and interaction between Optifine and one/more mods, or one/more mods crashing the game because of seeing Optifine, I don't know. I just wish it worked. If the problem is...

    Direwolf 20: 1.6.4 {PUBLIC BETA} Crash issues

    I'm unconcerned with "don't report the crash." I'm more concerned with the game being playable.

    Direwolf 20: 1.6.4 {PUBLIC BETA} Crash issues

    There may or may not be "problems" with Optifine, but to say it's no longer required could not possibly be further from the truth for many of us. Without Optifine, Minecraft (including all packs of FTB) is pretty much completely unplayable for me due to massive, insane, and perpetual lag spikes...

    Protip: Take off your armor when you aren't using it.

    I ran into my first skeleton in a MPS last night. It was initially terrifying...but I actually had little to no trouble taking him out. I think what they are spawning with its just a basic MPS with no upgrades, so the skeleton is effectively "naked but looking scary." Sent from my...

    Force engines only running with redstone?

    You would only need slight modifications to your current setup to use all four sides of the conduit. Dump the redstone blocks; you can transmit a redstone signal more cheaply with rednet cable or even just vanilla redstone wire/torches/repeaters. Alternate your liquiducts to compactly supply...

    How to trim out any EU related mods in Unleashed? (and play unleashed more generally)

    When it comes time for me to start a new game on Unleashed, I do: 1. Run until I find sheep for wool. 2. Make bed, gather food, temp shelter. 3. Basic mining for early supplies, mainly looking for iron, aluminum, and copper. 4. Smelt 3 iron, make a bucket, hunt for lava. 5. Gather enough clay...

    JVM Arguments for Modded Minecraft (Updated 12/30/13)

    I am aware of that. I posted because someone suggested using 8, and so I figured people would like to have some idea of whether or not it runs. Which, it doesn't. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2

    JVM Arguments for Modded Minecraft (Updated 12/30/13)

    I have a build of Java 8 on my Linux machine, and I cannot load FTB at all if I use it. It fails to even start the JVM. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2

    How to trim out any EU related mods in Unleashed? (and play unleashed more generally)

    Well now I'm really sad. I tested this out tonight. One steel dust smelted to 2 steel ingots in both a powered furnace and a vanilla furnace. In the smeltery...it totally smelts into only 1 steel ingot. Looks like I've been shorting myself a bunch of steel! Curse you mDiyo! ;)

    How to trim out any EU related mods in Unleashed? (and play unleashed more generally)

    I know how to craft it, I just wasn't sure if you needed a smeltery to actually smelt the dust. I also don't recall getting 2 ingots from the dust; if that is part of Mekanism then maybe smelting in a vanilla furnace is also. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2

    How to trim out any EU related mods in Unleashed? (and play unleashed more generally)

    I could have sworn you needed either a smeltery or a blast furnace to smelt the steel dust. I could be mistaken. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using Tapatalk 2
