    Does anyone know what the area of effect of the Tree of Transformation is?

    First experiences with modpacks

    Use an advanced turtle excavation program that mines out every third layer, picking out the ores from above and below Build base right above Suffer massive rendering lag from all the exposed blocks p.s. is there anything like the Filler that doesn get stuck on fluids or mobs?

    FTB Master Configs

    I'd be interested to see how the configs are managed. Is it all manual, or do you use scripts to sync the IDs across the various versions of the configs? I use Perl to apply my config customisations, so I can update MF2, run a script, and all the extra mods and config changes get added and...

    FTB Master Configs

    That's important to remember - when a mod pack is first released, it gets a copy of all the configs, even for mods that it doesn't include. Those unused configs are never updated! So when you do add a mod, the config you have is old and may not work. CMIIW.

    FTB - Curse Update

    If you're talking about the modders, MCP, Forge, Modjam, etc. then absolutely yes. But to be perfectly honest I don't see what's so great about the wider "community". Yes there are some great people here, a lot of great people, but there's also a lot of "you should be giving me even more free...

    Looks like something is messed up in your post. Try again.

    Should be ok. Is the chalk sign rotating? The white beam indicates that you have hit it with a crystal wrench, which is used to link the nexus to something like a battery of a crafting altar. Maybe that is stopping it from auto-feeding that machine at the bottom of the shot? What is it?

    It should go to machines like the Essence Refiner and Arcane Reconstructor automatically if they are close. The Light Nexus should show white glows arcing over, and the Dark Nexus should have a scary purple beam. On a related note, what are the negative effects of using a Dark Nexus to power...

    Thank you RWTema - I love Ender Quarry

    I think it's a wonderful design decision that the cheapest TE3 ducts are the more efficient opaque ones, and if you want the extra aesthetics (and CPU/bandwidth cost) of items being rendered then you have to pay a cost for it. A lot of people will just stick with the cheaper items, especially if...

    Yes, I got an infernal queen and a comb from my EQ in the nether.

    Oh, that's AE's search mode. There's options to sync with NEI, try the icons down the left side of the interface.

    Have you disabled NEI? Are the items showing up when you type in the search box, or is the search box even showing? Try pressing O, or clicking on the Options button when you open your inventory and enabling NEI.

    Ah, I get it now! When I first read this, I thought "why would the quarry be replacing bedrock with stone?" D'oh! OK, I'll have a look down at bedrock and see if there's a raggedy load of stone.

    morph and direwolf20 pack

    It's in Direwolf20's pack because he wants it for his LP. So what if it's alpha? It's stable, it works (apart from a few mod mobs that don't work), it's fun. OP is a matter of opinion. Can servers disable morphing in config? If so, no problem.

    FTB - Curse Update

    Ok, people, lets look at this another way. Sure, we're all happy with FTB the way it is, and we'd all be delighted if Slowpoke continued to bleed himself dry paying for hosting and pleading with volunteers to help him run this huge and demanding (in more than one sense) operation. That isn't...

    FTB Launcher getting removed by Norton

    It's something that rhymes with "kit"... I've used F-Secure for a few years now and am extremely happy with it.

    Thank you RWTema - I love Ender Quarry

    Everything but dirt. What's the alternative? You have to pick a single block that it doesn't mine, and that it replaces everything with, for simplicity and perfirmance. Smooth stone is a possible candidate, I suppose, the only substantive reason I can see againt it is that retro ore gen replaces...

    FTB - Curse Update

    I very much doubt whether your Minecraft forum posting privileges have anything to do with your ability to run the Curse client.

    Thank you RWTema - I love Ender Quarry

    I think it is supposed to stop if the attached chest is full. Not tried it myself though. It leaves them as they are. It ignores them. One thing that I have found to watch out for is block updates causing flow - I used a few stacks of sponges to explore under the lava in the nether looking for...
