    My Buildcraft Quarry doesn't use Silktouch?

    Quarrry Plus does need an enchant mover block. You might be thinking of Reika's mods, which just require clicking with an enchanted book (or at least they used to, haven't done it in a while.)

    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    Out of curiosity, anyone have any tips for someone who'd like to at least try Gregtech, but absolutely hates the ore generation? Walking 3000 blocks and spending multiple hours trying to find tin (which is what happened in the world I made today) just isn't my cup of tea, especially since it...

    [1.7.10] Intro2Mods [Very Lite][For Uplifting Noobs]

    You might want to consider that getting a tree farm with Thaumcraft requires quite a lot of investment. It's not even possible until you've got an infusion altar going. Given that a tree farm is one of the first things people want, not having an easier way to access it might be a problem.

    Mod Feedback ChromatiCraft questions and suggestions

    Do the structures generate in created ages? I'm also using Realistic World Gen and had intended to use RFTools to access Rainbow Forests (though I did find an area of Rainbow Forest in the overworld that was about 9X9, but it was in the middle of a river, so no trees, etc...this was after...

    Auto-craft as items enter m.e. network?

    Nope. None of those were things at the time. And I don't know if it works in AE2 but an export bus set to always craft pointed into an interface (with optional redstone control via level emitter) was far and away the best way to do this in AE in 1.5.2. But these posts are from 1.4.7 (notice...

    Those little things that irk you about Minecraft

    Rotarycraft does take advantage of mod added resources with alternate recipes, though, which is really nice. I never use gold where I could use copper or electrum or HSLA Steel where I can use tin ( (because seriously, what am I supposed to do with all this copper and silver if I don't have...

    Epidemia's build journal

    That house you made for Witchery is freaking amazing.

    botania

    Hmm...does it destroy wrong color wool? I've not unlocked Elven knowledge in my current world, and it appears to require that. If it doesn't, I'll just drop all the wool, and pick up whatever doesn't get used. Also, no MFR, so I'll be using a Progressive Automation animal farmer thing (I've...

    [Solved] Cursed Earth doing zilch

    Those are whay I usually use. You've got to put covers on them if you're outside, though, as conduits don't block the sky.

    botania

    There's a chromatic wool one (I usually just stick with endoflames, never needed more)? Hmmm...go go cascading colorer!

    You forgot to mention sticking a skeleton spawner in a cardboard box, taking it to the nether, and setting up a wither skeleton spawner (which is what I did to fill my soul shard.) Much quicker than relying on random wither skeletons spawning.

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    I learned that grass can apparently grow under lava. I'd dug out a hole, put in a lava bucket, and when I took it out later, there was grass at the bottom of the hole. It was either insanely lucky timing with a grass spread, or the grass spread while the hole had lava in it.

    botania

    You can config it in game, too. Honestly it's not a big deal. Get a mana pool and an endoflame out of the first set you craft, never worry about mana again. I've seen a Botania tree farm involving hopper hocks, exoflames, endoflames, those flowers that will place things (I forget what they're...

    Research for Avaritia: Tell me about your excessive resources

    You can, of course, change them to a different type of flower with gendustry (it's how I had end bees running in Agrarian Skies, since I got them as a quest reward and never went to the end) which is really nice.

    FTB Horizons: Daybreaker Discussion

    Gotta be honest, I didn't do any of the tutorial stuff in the book. I did the quests because, hey, free stuff, but other than that I just read through the book, usually while waiting for things to process (I was worried about losing stuff that had been made through vortex infusion.) I've gotta...

    The Sash of the Angel's...Heels I think it is...does up to 3 block step assist, and if you push into a taller wall it will charge up and step you up to the top (with no limit I'm aware of). Honestly, I kind of feel like the battle suit is too good, especially since it's not all that pricy (at...

    I really wish the Immersive Engineering Crusher had some sort of GUI. I had about 13k coal ore that I dropped into it (it had the best ore->coal ratio if I didn't want to break it all by hand), it's 2 days later, and it's still spitting out coal. I'd really like to know how close to done it is...

    Aura Cascade - Feedback and discussion

    Can I just say thank you for finally giving me a use for arrows? Mob farms always generate thousands of the things, but I've never really found much use for them before. Projectile Aura Pumps + Dispenser + Timer makes me happy...as long as I don't walk in front of it. :)

    Thaumcraft. The best and worst mod in existence.

    I've only ever been really deep into Thaumcraft once, but I always at least get started on it. I really like the wands and caps, the armor is neat without being overpowered (I still want Fortress boots, though) and aesthetically it's hard to beat outside of mods that are specifically aesthetic...

    So...if anyone's interested, Geko's Lasers seem to not work on the Ender Dragon and the crystals that heal it (at least with Hardcore Ender Expansion installed.) Made my fight with the Ender Dragon...interesting, to say the least (since you get knocked back almost every time you get near the...
