    Best MJ generation method?

    Gonna rub my temples now because you are not listening to the math. :( Brb.

    Best MJ generation method?

    They are a bad design for such. Spending time at the crafting table is not fun. If you're going to have power mods that do this they should be more like how boilers work: a fair amount of investment for big payouts. It can be made perpetual, but it's hard work. IC2 has a fundamentally bad...

    Yes. Your ForgeModLoader log.

    Best MJ generation method?

    It depends on how you cost them, but your adv solars are dirt cheap given that they're effectively free, infinite, unmaintained power forever that is just a block you plop down. It represents the very worst aspects of IC2 power system design exemplified in a single block so as to not murder the...

    Best MJ generation method?

    That should be the equivalent of three or four maxed out liquid boilers. Instead it's the equivalent of dozens. Efficiency is not the problem. Okay but it is not working "correctly" in that it takes a relative proportion of EU and turns it into a reasonable sum of MJ. And doing that...

    Best MJ generation method?

    Yes, because PowerConverters are essentially broken. All hail PC, but the thing is that EU production and consumption doesn't scale linearly but MJ does. PowerConverters uses a fixed conversion rate that is good on the low end, but utterly breaks at scale. He'd have to do quite a bit of work to...

    Best MJ generation method?

    Minefactory reloaded biogens are exceptionally good in 1.5.1, even if you don't exploit the bugs. They're quite middle-tier, but only really high-end steam systems easily eclipse them.

    Transport liquids without chunk loaders?

    Yeah but this seems like evading the "no chunkloader" policy. If quarries are forbidden then...

    Make sure your ram and permgen space are upped! People forget they have to do this for FTB too!

    Transport liquids without chunk loaders?

    This is not always true. It really depends on what's in the chunks. As we've seen before, just loading a single chunk that interacts with nearby chunks can stress the server more than just keeping those chunks loaded all the time.

    IC2 is slowly dying out ?

    Remember that one time when Oceanographers and have pretty much always known what it was? Like forever. And have explained it over and over? And no one listens? Good times.

    Transport liquids without chunk loaders?

    They do. But you can stand on one end and load a group of them up to the brim, then go back to your base and they'll be waiting for you.

    Risk not the wrath of my wife. She is dangerous.

    Transport liquids without chunk loaders?

    Your server is actually making things worse by banning chunk loaders because what you're going to do is assassinate the tickrate trying to get those chunks loaded. Stop playing there; they're being wrong.

    Yeah that'll fail too. See my google plus banner. You're gonna need science yet undiscovered.

    My beard cannot be tamed by mere surgical steel. And yeah, my wife made a skin for me and it uses the outer layer segment for my beard. It gives it simply lovely volume. ;)

    Episode 10 is out. I make an RFID door, make a basic smelting factory, and fart around more. Really this is ep9 part 2, but EPISODE 10 sounds impressive. Episode here.

    GregTech Thread?

    Them bees. Those new Ars bee frames are "hella op" to give Way those bees so early. He did it without any infrastructure at all.
