    Is Rotarycraft stupidly difficult or am I the stupid one?

    Gear junctions are probably least game-mechanically appealing block in mod. They look simple, but don't work as you'd expect from knowledge of real-life mechanics. You have to do a lot of right-clicking to adjust them right, and then SHIFT right click and adjust split ratios. If you want equal...

    Few of my favourite things

    Forgot about that too. Red Power had a lot of neat stuff, but that wires that neatly lie along the wall and don't obstruct movement, and looks so nicely and orderly - awesome. Now thare are bajilion mods with wires, but they all ugly IC2-like ones.

    How? Make a channel? Clay bucket needs furnace too.

    Crash Landing, help, venting and discussion!

    Not working for me:( And lack of cobble is pretty severe for me. I only sieved 6 cobble for furnace on third night, and I'm already out of water and jerkies give only half of the leg.

    How do you feel about AE2?

    Dunno if seed recharging works in flowing water too. In that case, there are ways.

    I walled pyrotheum off with dust to stop creepers exploding.

    Oh, yes, mine too. So many uses for it - building, mining, probably something else too. I love Portable Hole too.

    Any advice for how to clear up creepers after the first night, so I can collect meat and bones in peace?

    How do you feel about AE2?

    It's first one, 3rd to seventh add 4 sides per block. So, maximum number of channels in one network is (7*4+2)*32 = 960.

    Few of my favourite things

    Which elements/items/mechanics in mods do you find particularly appealing? Some of mine: 1. Extra Utilities' Ender Quarry and Pump. Less lag is good! 2. Extra Utilities' builder Wand and it's cousins from other mods that make building things easier. Actually, a lot of stuff from XU would...

    How do you feel about AE2?

    Are channels that big of an issue? As far as I understand, you can get 128 channels per 1 ME Controller block. Expensive part is making and powering all that wires.

    Thanks, but how is it different/better than Unstable?

    Brightest block in modded Minecraft?

    I can't remember which mod is it, but there was a solid-white regardless of lighting block somewhere. Also, blazing pyrotheum from Thermal Expansion 3 is very sun-like.

    How do you feel about AE2?

    My personal biggest problem with AE2 is that by the time I can actually make that sprawling autocrafting-everyting AE2 system, I have run out of things to do in this particular world and it's time to move on.

    Which is the funnest modpack you have played?

    What's so great about TPPI?

    Necessities for every mod pack (almost)

    Going through Thaumcraft research in every mod pack? Meh.

    Titbits from 1.7.10 mods

    I'm not sure I'm happy that each mod tries to have complete tech tree. Devs essentially duplicate each other's work, and I'm confused on how I am supposed to play them. Should I use one mod and remove others? Should I have several and use simplest/cheapest option for particular task (such as...

    Efficient Ore Production?

    Isn't MFR BioGen more efective?

    How do you feel about AE2?

    To be honest, I'm not even sure automating things with AE2 worth it, unless if you consider process of doing it a reward in itself. Initial processing and sorting can be done with simpler mods such as EnderIO. Crafting can be done nearly instantly with NEI and AE work bench interface. Bulk...

    How do you feel about AE2?

    It's manageable. I had a little bit problem with powering the network, but it's because 1.7 was still young and I barely had any power sources other than EnderIO solars. Use crystal growth accelerator thingie.
