    1001 things to do in modded minecraft

    Can I tell the Endermen to stay off my lawn instead? The one time I spent a ton of time terraforming a massive hill for my base to sit on top of, I kept getting holes in my lawn because the Endermen kept stealing my grass blocks (I even set up Magnum Torches all around the place, and still had...

    Infinity Evolved 2.4.2 Terrible FPS when inside, or looking at, my base?

    Just use Immersive Engineering wires to convert between RF and EU. No need to get power converters.

    Infinity Evolved 2.4.2 Terrible FPS when inside, or looking at, my base?

    Lighting updates in Minecraft tend to be a huge issue. I had a base go from 90 fps to 8 when I set up a system that had machines constantly turning on and off (granted, it was like 30 machines), with all the associated lighting updates. I know you said you removed all the machines and whatnot...

    Maximum Cows per chunk? :)))

    Back in 1.5 I had a cow farm with over 300 cows because I was trying to keep up with an MFR Fertilizer, but i was going through sewage faster than the cows were producing it. Getting anywhere near them absolutely murdered my frames, though.

    You can, and it would be your only option. But you definitely want at least one metal former. The metal press is incredibly slow, and can't make the massive amounts of wires needed. I'd use the metal press for gears, as it's better for automation than a smeltery (no worries about accidentally...

    Personally, if I could get the skyblock recipes in regular infinity evolved, I'd probably be playing that. Regular Infinity Evolved got boring because it was too easy to get everything, but Expert mode was a little too hardcore for me (read as "I got bored after hand mining 20 stacks of iron")...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    I believe so, but casting channels are...glitchy. I wanted to set up a purely aesthetic thing where stuff flowed through casting channels to get to casting basins, and fluid would go missing somewhere along the channels. Not a lot, but enough that I would end up short of casting full blocks...

    Same, and for the ones that don't work with compacting drawers (draconium, mainly) I'm just having logistics pipes craft it.

    Hardened fluiducts require 2 Hardened Lumium glass and one Hardened/Lumium/Fused Quartz. As for the redstone ore...I'm on 1.1.0, and the 1 block of redstone plus a piece of stone in the induction smelter recipe is still listed. So is the diamond block plus stone. Try reloading your recipes maybe?

    Thanks so much. This worked perfectly. Set my y to 256, managed to get my jetpack turned on before I hit my platform, and all is now well. No more trying to scan Reinforced Obsidian for me. :)

    I'm in search of Skyblock power options

    No problem. Until the last couple days I hadn't built one before either, but I spent a decent chunk of time researching to find out how to best poduce plutonium, so I sort of understand them now (from what I gathered, the mechanics are so arcane it takes a while to completely understand them.)

    I'm in search of Skyblock power options

    Uranium, as I understand it, always takes the same amount of time to deplete. Mox takes half that time (which is why I was planning on switching once I'd used up all the quad cells I'd already crafted.) The only real way, therefore, to increase your production, is to spam more reactors. I had...

    Awesome, thanks. I'll have to give that a try (the second one, that is. I can definitely handle a basic progam and find the save folder. :) )

    I'm in search of Skyblock power options

    I was using the setup in this post before my world became unplayable (because of a bug between Ender IO and Thaumcraft, apparently, the reactors were working great.) Generates 28 tiny plutonium per run (which is one more than the other safe setups I found) and doesn't require any replacement of...

    Agh...my world just broke. I was running around scanning things trying to get more ordo, and when I was walking over to my wither box, as soon as my thaumometer was pointed at reinforced obsidian I crashed....and when I loaded in, I crashed again, since I was still looking at reinforced...

    Capture a guardian in a soul vial and powered spawner them? Possibly they work with safari nets as well, but I've never tried.

    Yep, I've got a powered spawner dropping skellies through witch water, just don't have auto-killing yet. I set it up right before I quit for the night, and I just wanted to test that the skeletons were falling far enough that they didn't just end up swimming in the witch water (a problem I had...

    FTB Infinity Skyblock 1.7.10 Help, Venting and Discussion Thread

    Well, if the nether existed, I'd do my normal route of setting up an Ender IO powered spawner with skeletons in the nether, with a beheading scythe in an autonomous activator. With max beheading and fortune 3, it generates several hundred heads per hour. I suppose I could probably set it up in...

    FTB Infinity Skyblock 1.7.10 Help, Venting and Discussion Thread

    Yeah, I saw that earlier, and the math didn't make any sense to me. I'm not used to Draconic Evolution (I've mostly played self-built packs centered around either Rotarycraft or Mekanism in 1.7), so I forgot that it's fortunable, I was thinking of it being like iron. I might switch back over...

    I need more power. I've got 32 8X culinary gens and I have periods where I'm draining my Vibrant capacitor bank. I'm producing plutonium via UU matter, being powered by 8 IC2 reactors generating 420 EU each (7 quad rods per) and 4 resonant solar panels, so hopefully Big Reactors isn't too far...
