    How do YOU farm trees?

    You know what you need to get rid of those awkward timers and wire? Immibis's Infinitubes. They are amazing for that sort of work. You can even do regulator-like stuff; but remotely. Add the mod today! Also, how do you actually get the top of the trees? Did you change the MFR config to go up...

    RC transportation - Uses

    I wish there was a version/config of enderchests that allowed chest-to-pouch, but not chest-to-chest. I'd much rather "play it straight" with respect to space and time save in the case of personal inventory.

    MFR Rubber tree Saplings grow into Oak trees?

    Just FYI, I had a problem with item conflicts that caused something very much like this. Sometimes they're hard to spot amidst the damn GregTech spam as ForgeOreDictionary flips out into the console.

    install Equivalent Exchange 2

    But in all seriousness, you just run old server images. It's not hard to make an EE2 server and if all you have is EE2 it will work fine. Minefold still maintains tekkit classic servers if you wanna go back there with a free-to-play 1 button server setup. I have one I visit every now and then...

    RC transportation - Uses

    One under-used aspect of railcraft transport is the IC2 carts. They are fairly inexpensive ways to move HV and LV current around. Another big use is for moving things between systems within a single factory. Railcraft's item movement is entirely "safe" in that it'll never overflow, and it can...

    AE ate my diamonds :(

    I think recently the system changed so that eventually jobs time out and the system knows to stop retrying. Because it's definitely the case that I've abused the most recent f and g builds w.r.t. incorrectly using Factorization packagers (hopin' to save on quartz, yo!) with ME interfaces and...

    Not using IC2 in a game.

    Why not just swap in the Universal Electricity pack for IC2+GT+Gravi? It works with well with MPS, and it's a little known fact that the Mekanism energy cubes can emit MJ which AE can understand. So you can power pretty much any MJ machine directly with UE using Energy Cubes (and pellets) as an...

    AE ate my diamonds :(

    We've been using AE nonstop and exclusively on AdvancingCraft since pre-ultimate without issues. We've had server crashes and other problems, yet I've seen no evidence of any misbehavior (nor has anyone noticed item lossage). I've got an AE network that has a new trunk line long enough to...

    Creating EU through Infernal Furnace EXP

    You should see DoctorOr's advancingcraft base. You gain about a level per 40 seconds standing within 100m of it. That's how stupid-out-of-control his edenic bees are.

    Some help with routers

    Do the turtles show up in the machine filtered router? I'm not actually sure if they count as inventories for the purpose of this.

    Creating EU through Infernal Furnace EXP

    Not a big deal. I can do the same thing with an empty, dark room and some buckets of water.

    Steam Boilers vs IC2 EU generators.

    You're doing this with redwoods, right?

    FTB vs MultiMC

    I am pretty sure this is false. The client library is what specifies the capabilities required. I also don't know what you are actually talking about. I am pretty sure no one's minecraft is ending up entirely in software mode due to a driver issue.

    EU to MJ?? *Direwolf20 modpack*

    Electrical engines are better than the alternatives. Make T2 circuit boards and add efficiency and boost I.

    How do I turn off the hardmode advanaced solar panel recipe?

    If you're going to cheat, why pretend you aren't cheating? Just spawn it in. I promise it will not affect your score.

    FTB vs MultiMC

    Please. Please. Please. Do not spread radically incorrect information like this. Java is perfectly capable of a variety of hardware accelerate graphics tasks. Minecraft does use them. To the OP: MultiMC doesn't automatically increase your permgem space or max memory allocations; you need to...

    MFR - Bioreactor. Values?

    I've never seen anyone actually pull this off. The problem I had was that the reactor ran so fast that it'd just munch all the fuel before diversity had time to accumulate when I had vanilla plants and a tree farm. I had infinite and available fertilizer; it didn't make that system...

    Extra Large Multifarm--Best Use?

    A single 1-chunk steve's carts farm will easily outproduce that with 0 inputs and run forever if you set it up right and build it with the right engines. It also costs less. The most awkward part is waiting for the cart assembler and making sure you can produce rails. Of course, most people...

    MFR - Bioreactor. Values?

    I feel like I've had this discussion before. The farms work well if they can produce more power than they take to run. The only way I've seen this work is using the solid fuel output from the MFR farms or using very big trees with the con figs tuned for large height to maximize sapling output...

    What Mods keep Chunks loaded?

    Active portals do keep the chunk they're occupying loaded. Just that chunk. Tesseracts explicitly do not.
