    How many play Vanilla?

    Though, for me that would defeat all the communal purpose. Once you start adding those mods, it becomes increasing viable to SSP in an SMP world, rather than rely on each other. Trading, etc. Not one person has the time to build all the farms required for all the things. Etho has taken 3 years...

    How many play Vanilla?

    Well, I use a lot of barrels/chests, just with storage buses. Eventually you waste so much time without it, that you could've built a whole other base. .

    How many play Vanilla?

    Ahh, yes... Minimap. Though, you don't mind the 5000 double chests and one block mining 100 000 blocks for a project?

    How many play Vanilla?

    Ahh, I was thinking about "what would make me play vanilla". The very least would be those two. I don't really need anything else. Storage and no 3x3 tools make me shudder about building and item management in vanilla. The thing I like about vanilla is community building. Everyone goes and...

    How many play Vanilla?

    How many of you guys play vanilla regularly? If so, compare it to your FTB hours. Also, for those whom don't play vanilla... If vanilla had TiCo & AE (and that's it), would you play it then?

    The Magmatic Engine

    Some people just like to build, but want the survival experience. Some people are just not that tech-savvy, so this is an easy way for them to get some tech. Some people just want to see the nether a safer place, so they drain it all of its hazardous red goop. Me? I prefer feeding culinary...

    AE2 Controller Optimization.

    I think AX2's intention was to make people use more subsystems. I was going to make separate processes (managed by their own AE system) talk to others via storage buses. Barrels, and a general chest. My main AE system would contain all the drives, but would have access to the inventories of...

    AE2 Controller Optimization.

    Yeah, I had just realized that. Hmmm, I'll actually have to make this and play around with optimizing it. I guess 32x8 channels is more than sufficient. You can draw out the channels required for the P2P channels from the middle. You don't have to have dense cables attached to your controllers...

    AE2 Controller Optimization.

    Hmm very insightful. So in this case, you are only using the 8 sides that you can see, per side of the cube? I see that each of the two visible sides have an 8-channel cable pulling out of there. Is what you're saying, with the drive area, that you are running a dense cable because you are...

    AE2 Controller Optimization.

    Ah, thanks for that. Keep forgetting that everything is multiparts. Is that how you have transferred your channels semi-long distances, throughout your base? i.e. instead of running dense cable everywhere, you branch off and can run 8x32 channels, off of a regular cable, by using 8xP2P tunnels...

    How do you fuel your Blood Powers?

    Witches on graveyard soil, with a regen ritual nearby. They last forever, after running the MFR machine for a bit, some 100-200 accumulate while ticking every Well of Suffering pulse. I wanted to automate this process, but AS don't have no CC.

    AE2 Controller Optimization.

    With a 3x3x3, is it only possible to get one of the 6 inward facing faces? Can you show me this setup.

    AE2 Controller Optimization.

    Ah, did not know about P2P functionality with dense cables. And for everybody else, how do you attach dense cables to the center-most controller in a 3x3 controller...

    AE2 Controller Optimization.

    A couple facts: Each side of the controller can handle up to 32 channels Additional channels can be added to network via placing additional controllers adjacent to current controller (with a few structure rules) Dense lines from each side must be completely independent of another, or else the...

    Flux Upgrade Problems

    Ahh. I just added thaumium rods. All that's left are for Backpacks & BetterStorage to be updated to 1.7.10 and it'll taste just like Monster.

    Not sure what this server is at. Were there any major TiCo changes?
