    disable world-invading?

    playing the DW20 pack, I have basically been unable to get away from the stupid things. no matter where I go, there is always some visible on the minimap (but out of loading range) ive considered cheating in a ton of those ethereal blooms and frying the closest one to where I set up.

    So this whole Gregtech thing.

    that works, and its what i do. its really not much i change, just some of the hard recipies, plates needed, and the vanilla nerfs. . . . at least until he takes away those config options.

    How would you change IC2

    Crops: agreed, but its hard to attract someone w/ fancy crops when even a vanilla potato farm the size of one you get in a village is enough to let you keep a stack on you at all times. Power transmission: you are describing a GT superconducting cable quite well. however, by the time youre using...

    So this whole Gregtech thing.

    this. I love GT as it is in the ultimate, and even unhinged pack, but I do believe he has messed with far too much. mainly the insane material costs imposed on other mods, the very steep ramp to get into the mod (and even IC2) due to high materials cost for even basic machines, and changes to...

    close enough for me.

    and redpower returns! I would like frames back, but the re-addition of the logic and blocks is awesome. ill settle for "eventually"

    Preferred ore doubler of choice?

    its roughly a 5x multiplier for the extractor. and yea, its slow. at least until you direct-drive a gas turbine to it. then its fairly fast. despite its slowness, its probably a key first component due to the sheer volume of steel needed by the mod.

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    still worth it. especially if in a pack with IC/GT. iridium isn't a stupidly scarce resource anymore.

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    better get cracking on those engines then. only tech mods here are TE and rotarycraft, so those are your only options. for RF power, stick to TE engines. for ore multiplying, RC has everything beat. average of 5x multiplier once you get the thing up and running. VERY iron hungry though.

    rotary craft has a few ways for auto-mining. similar to the RC tunnel bore but a fair bit more expensive/setup intensive. besides, huge processing multiplier! you can keep your silly 2x and 3x processing systems. iridium is rare no more! its really "the" tech mod in this pack. ive been following...

    Why no new launcher.

    well, that will help. on the communications subject, an actual twitter feed high on the main page only for status updates would go a long way for me. thanks for the update slow.

    source of all evil

    I was working on another build, a small-middling outpost set in a wasteland biome. I was inspired to put this together, to sort of explain the wasteland biome and why the fort was there. using Ultimate because I needed redpower for the first build. ill update this thread with more...

    With the return of taint, thaumcraft is now full of !!FUN!!

    im referencing DW20 here, but one of his relatively recent videos showed planting silverwoods to generate pure nodes worked to slow/stop taint. and now that you can move nodes relatively easily, you can stock up on pure-node-in-a-jar to deal with either the biome or. . . problematic cruicible/...

    A mod idea...

    I just found this, and I have to say it sounds interesting. ill follow this.

    barrels hold 64 stacks at a time of a single item. 1024 if you need true mass storage of a single item like cobble. if you need mass storage of various items, such as tools, junk ores, semi-processed materials, and finished products, slap down an AE system. 1 64K drive can store an entire max...

    More efficient/completely safe nuclear reactor setups?

    to guys talking condensators: this is for designs that don't turn into nuclear warheads when your computer decides to hiccup at the wrong time. no condensators please. only running costs should be the materials for double/quad cells if used. if I want a totally ridiculous power output, ill put...

    Forum update 7/11/13

    popping back in again, the changes are amazing. thanks. a little nitpick: I still wish the quote boxes were a different shade of red, but I can live with the current.

    how do I make and use a drying rack? I got unlucky and have no cows within 300 blocks of where ive set up.

    Forum update 7/11/13

    the light grey border accent needs to be a bit darker. as it is its nearly indistinguishable from the white text fields. this would also make the gamevox logo stand out better. the delineation between main text and signature could be clearer/darker. same problem as above: it blends in too well...

    fastest way to pump items

    quarry doesn't eject into interfaces. you will need one pipe segment between it and the interface or you have the item spew. tesseracts are good.
