    Nominations for Forum Moderators

    I would like to thank everyone for the idea that I'd be a good mod for this forum. However, I'd like to de-nominate myself. I'm pretty busy with my own projects. Besides, if I were a mod I'd have to turn off my ignore list and that'd depress me way too much. Still, just being nominated is...

    Whats Better?

    Just FYI, the only way I ever 1-shot witches at melee range was with dashing attacks with TiCo longswords or damage amped TiCo battleaxes. So you CAN reach that threshold and one shot the most aggravatingmob in the game.

    How to add GT to FTBUnleashed?

    Yeah BR is fun. You need to amp up the power to make it worthwhile tho. We use a powerProductionMultiplier of 8.0.. It's not bad, but I don't think many people use it. I should.

    How to add GT to FTBUnleashed?

    So um. We're big fans of Mekanism and Atomic Science. I know Shneekey has played with that too. You might also wanna look at Engineer's Toolbox which I think does a better job doing gregtech-is-3.09+ custom assembled machines.

    Whats Better?

    If you want to max out raw damage, TiCo axes are under-appreciated with SecretOfManaAlloy battleaxes coming in at a whopping 9.5 hearts of damage per hit at base. Which is, like, whoah.

    UE Question

    The reason energy conversion taxes are tricky to implement is that different power systems use different scaling curves So it can be very difficult to avoid creating weird effects like power loops.

    UE Question

    0.6.1.80. We're trying to get to the point where industrial steam engines are not a silly option. They are easier to build, so that's something in their favor. Until you have AE.

    UE Question

    Trust me when I say reactors are still insanely powerful. It's actually turbines we're nerfing. They have a sliding scale of fuel consumption which ends in '1 steam per tick to maintain max RPM'. This ends up meaning that if you add turbines piecewise to the system and never turn off the reactor...

    UE Question

    Oh also: Mek cubes are very small storage compared to their counterparts in other mods. A basic mek cube isn't even quite as good as a battery box. So it's not a huge deal. You can do experiments yourself too, pretty easily. Just fire up an RR instance (see my sig for the link) and tweak the...

    UE Question

    No, but universal cable brings its own problems. The way it works is that it takes the power in the system and traverses it in order of what things were added. At each consumer it tries to meet the consumer's entire demand that tick. It then takes the rest and keeps going. This means that a...

    so the new 152 packs... I took RP2 for granted.

    This is definitely a bug. It matures after you pick it. Like berries. For T1 tools, the "handle modifier" is what you're looking for in the book. It is multiplied with the head durability. You usually use wood to start because it's the cheapest material with 1x durability. Otherwise the...

    UE Question

    Hah never say never to power overdraw when you have a growing AE network :D Voltage issues can also be a pain.

    Why do people alway ask for IGN ids?

    Ah, but cotton doesn't need to be replanted and grows faster. It also gives you a wool discount. I found myself producing more stuff faster.

    so the new 152 packs... I took RP2 for granted.

    Use quartz if you're desperate. Those tools are pretty good. Once you get tinker's going, my very first tools are a flint pick+wood handle+stone binding pickaxe, and a similar shove. Flint has a speed of 5.5 and throwing a cobble binding on there makes it have Stonebound, so it gets faster...

    UE Question

    So this is something near and dear to me. My advice is to reconfigure it, and we're preparing a set of compat recommendations with Calclavia. You can see the current values we're working with here, and this will remain updated with our experiments. This will be refined further over time, but...

    Seed oil, Ways to farm it?

    Sorta depends on where you are in the tech tree. Golems are way cheaper if you've researched.

    What is your ExtraBiomesXL/Biomes O' Plenty Biome?

    Mystic Forest. Because I mean... witches, am I right? BS hidden in the spoiler.

    FTBUnleashed. First Impressions.

    I can attest to the fact that this is true. Still crazy.

    A replacement for frames!

    Uhhh, Calclavia pushed a demo video that is unimpressive. let me see if I can gin something up for you. There is this world eating mobile AE death star powered by fusion that RedBoss and I concocted. We're sort of daring each other to build it. It's cool how you made it worse.
