    Pumping Steam to Big Reactors' Turbines

    I did some testing on throughput using fluiducts and transfer nodes today. Here's what I found: With fluiducts and steam, on the output face of a reactor, you only need one connection, but on the input face of a turbine, you need many connections. Each fluiduct connection on the turbine can...

    TTKami - Having Issues with Celestial Travel

    Hold the pearl on your hotbar and shift-right click on the gateway to link it. Now you can use the wand focus.

    Removing TileEntities?

    I know you may not use MCPC, but if you do, I found a useful plugin called ConsoleMessagesFilter. It allows you to specify filters that prevent messages from appearing in the console. I have one other idea which may or may not work. Try putting GasCraft back in and restart the server. Then...

    How to produce massive RF?

    I haven't had any issues specifically with RiM. Some things mess up, like portal frames and wireless redstone receivers, but I don't know for sure it's RiM's fault. I really like the ability to control the carriage directly with a computer, and without the need for inchworm drives. But with...

    Automatic tree farm - breaking leaves automatically

    I believe the mod Random Things alters leaf decay to a much faster rate.

    Ooops... MFFS Broke My Server

    Cool. Now get a mod to handle regular backups!

    How do you sort/store your stuff (Monster)

    I really prefer to see things in pipes as well, but every time I go with a pipes or tubes setup my base ends up becoming a video-card-eating lag monster. I tend to stick with AE now just for playability. The portability is nice for moving bases, too. Shove everything into 10 disks and carry...

    My Megafactory Pictures

    Wow. I'm going to delete my world now.

    Why am I getting this weird block lag on MP FTB? (DW20 1.0.4)

    I'm going to disagree with most everyone here and say I think it's client lag. You see how his recording drops frames every time he places a block? Either his processor or his video card is struggling with the scene. I'm willing to bet that if you turn on the lag-o-meter and press F3...

    Generating an ID List.

    In-game, open NEI's settings menu and find the button for ID dumps. Can't remember the specific name, but it'll let you choose to dump all unused ID's.

    New Rig (Can it play FTB?)

    I would disagree. If you have 189 mods, you're going to need RAM badly. And an i5 with comparable single-threaded performance would cost more than another 4 GB of RAM.

    New Rig (Can it play FTB?)

    I recently built a mini server using an i3-4340. It's a great processor - don't dismiss it just because it's an i3. It is faster in single-threaded applications than some i5's, and remember that Minecraft is currently a single-threaded application. I would refer you to this graph, keeping in...

    GTX 570 Crashing Issue

    Do you have Optifine? There's a documented glitch with Multi-Core chunk loading that may be the cause, if you have it.

    Lag that shouldn't be happening server side...?

    Can you provide your mod list?

    AE's ME Controller constantly disconnecting from the rest of the system.

    I found that P2P tunnels caused this 100% of the time in one of my bases, chunkloaded or not, if I left the area for any amount of time. I also concur with Racemol's suggestion - ensure again that every single piece of your network is chunkloaded.

    Biofuel the Stoo42 way... DW20 public beta SMP

    I may take inspiration from this someday. Regarding covering up the holes that your Buildcraft pipes make in the floor, have a look at facades.

    [Dw20 1.6.4] - Automatic Emerald Factory

    Do they only take damage if there is fluid in the smeltery? I always get the damage sound effects when I step into an empty one.

    Applied Energistics or Logistic Pipes for auto crafting.

    That's cool. I may use that, thanks.

    Applied Energistics or Logistic Pipes for auto crafting.

    I have to disagree on this one. Satellite pipes allow one to direct specific items of a crafting recipe into a separate face. The only two solutions I know of for AE that are only-AE (not using other mods), are to set up a sub-network with storage buses for a machine that needs multiple...

    Applied Energistics or Logistic Pipes for auto crafting.

    If your processor is fast, Logistics Pipes is a fun alternative to AE. But keep in mind that LP is very, very hard on the frame rate. I've got an i5 at 4.2 GHz and a Geforce 780, and my (half-LP, half-AE) base drops me to 25 fps. That's without any LP autocrafting - just storage. I recall...
