    Why 1.5.1 hoppers rule, a pictoral

    Look at the link in my sig for how you can use them when you're just starting out.

    1.5.1 Beta Pack: Are U Looking Forward To It?

    I use multi-mc and a lot of work in my terminal. I've softlinked my client build to my multimc "instances" folder so I can do rapid testing on the client side. I use git for version control.

    Why 1.5.1 hoppers rule, a pictoral

    Yeah I am excited about them too. You may have seen in my videos they make trivial automation trivial. And actually, DoctorOr, it can be useful. TE's output consistently beats Vanilla's output slurpage for me. This lets you do some funny things like have overflow valves on TE pipelines. I...

    Let me see if I can help you out there.

    Am I the only one who cringes......

    You're map resetting and not going to 1.5.1? Seems like throwing work into the void.

    Not you, don't worry. No offense intended!

    1.5.1 Beta Pack: Are U Looking Forward To It?

    It is not a small amount of work, I agree.

    And also, with MFR you can indeed do that. Burn wood for IC2 generators to make oil. It's not tremendously energy positive w/out a bunch of tricks, but as an energy storage mechanism it works quite well. Of course, now Greg and Calclavia are working to make AtomicScience work with IC2 stuff...

    FTB - Didja know?

    There are more fun and multi-purpose ways to get infinite xp in minecraft though. Like a dark room with piston floors. :)

    I was making wool with organics and bones, and mutating dyes. What minechem could really use is an awesome, stable API.

    1.5.1 Beta Pack: Are U Looking Forward To It?

    I am already playing 1.5.1 and basically every mod has gotten way better. You should be looking forward to it. You should also hope that FTB decides to expand on the world generation mods. Even if they don't pick BoP over EBXL, several new options are opening up in worldgen and Underground...

    Eloraam has not disappeared. (random half related topics)

    Note that as Ars Magica comes into play you can literally generate any base metal in infinite quantity using only Ars Magica and vanilla mechanics. And get this: that feature well-known, well-understood, extensible via configuration, and intentional! I've been dorking around with Minechem and...

    Eloraam has not disappeared. (random half related topics)

    Time: you should pay attention as it passes. When are you going to just put that troll on ignore and have a better forum experience? Basically everything Gregtech does to vanilla IC2 is for the better. Vanilla IC2 has been locked in stasis for so long it's practically ossified (unless we're...

    Auto ore processing useing RedPower, IndustrialCraft, and BuildCraft

    Not sure what you're not sure about. :) But if you wanna see what I'm talking about with 1.5 features, you could imagine the crushers in this video at this offset shows me setting up hoppers for a 2 machine pairing. You could easily do a lot more with just a little bit of thought (I deliberately...

    Ladders!

    Weird because I saw a setup using them doing this. I wonder if they were not the RP2 variety...

    Auto ore processing useing RedPower, IndustrialCraft, and BuildCraft

    If you feel the need for more discussion, just ask "Ore processing with new content in 1.5.1" and ask about early ore processing and how the new stuff we're seeing will change it. Watch my video before you do, tho.

    Applied Energistics and Boilers

    King Lemming may hate you for this use, but it's a good solution and I like it. The only other clean way with 0 recurring cost and no perilous danger to your server is via routers.

    Am I the only one who cringes......

    Yeah I resisted that goofy railcraft time-waster as well. Even though it is insanely cheap to make steel that way.

    I heartily endorse this. So much. Block breakers and turtles work.

    Don't do it. I did and stopped logging into AC it was so demoralizing. See my halfway-finished home and play the soundtrack from Shadow of the Colossus for an example of how I feel.
