    Request Custom Ore Generation configs idea

    I'm just adding to the Nether, not substituting there. Basically making it the go to place for materials. Thanks for the heads up though, that would have been confusing. Well, so far:) It's all a big experiment, and has a lot of tweaking to go. ( Especially since ProjE is still so buggy. RIP...

    Request Custom Ore Generation configs idea

    You just saved me a fair bit of effort, so thank you:) While what I'm doing is completely different ( I'm actually removing all ores from the overworld, and assigning ProjE values to everything, as well as generations in the Nether. ), this just provided an excellent springboard. Cheers!

    Problems adding Reika's mods in 1.7.10?

    The forge log is what you want. 90% or more of the time, the error is found there. Most crashes even print out the same info there. There are quite a few possible problems, and if you're using the current mods from reika ( 4a and 4d ), then you will need to update several other mods. As...

    FTB not allocating more memory

    You don't need to worry about the nvidia setting to use your graphics card because you don't have an integrated GPU. Also, you can't just expect to get the same performance as someone else without comparing hardware. If they have a CPU that's 3 times faster than yours, then they're going to get...

    Some questions about setting up a HTGR from Reactorcraft

    Yes there is. It's something like a blue fluorite and a book. You can check NEI for either handbook or reactorcraft and you'll find it. However, much like the RoC book, it is more about the basic information such as power requirements, and fuels. More detailed information you still have to...

    Some questions about setting up a HTGR from Reactorcraft

    Cores can transfer heat through each other as well, so the extra exchangers don't do anything at all. So, something like: CCCCC CCCCC CCXCC CCCCC CCCCC would be much better. You only need to add heat exchangers if you can not get rid of the heat as fast as it is being made.

    Some questions about setting up a HTGR from Reactorcraft

    The problem is not enough heat produced. Adding co2 heat exchangers doesn't help this, but adding more cores does.

    Some questions about setting up a HTGR from Reactorcraft

    I did wonder. ( Hence not stating it as fact. ) Updated my post accordingly.

    Some questions about setting up a HTGR from Reactorcraft

    V4 is out, so y'all might want to try it out now. Heads up though: Word is the retro-gen is currently enabled by default. Make sure retrogen is not enabled as it's not entirely ready yet. ( As always, you should also do a backup before updating. ) If no one else has tried by sunday, I might be...

    Minimum Suggested Specs For Direwolf 20?

    NP, but I still think staying even in the 40-50 range is asking a bit much for 1.7.10. I can get well over 100, then plummet down to like 10. It's rather crazy, even before you build anything:( Perhaps updating the Forge versions and all of the mods might help. ( Modpacks are often well behind...

    Minimum Suggested Specs For Direwolf 20?

    Install Fastcraft. That should help quite a bit. Also, make sure you don't give java more than 4GB. With my DW20 pack, I actually use 2.75. A clean 60fps is actually really hard to hit on 1.7.10 modpacks. It's a huge mess. You're better off just not worrying about it, else you could spend...

    Some questions about setting up a HTGR from Reactorcraft

    I'm pretty sure it caps out at 67MW, and would be about 6.25 times faster than 16MW. Anything less than 8MW, and over 67MW, you should build more centrifuges. From 8 to 67MW you get more than double the speed for only doubling the power. Also note that the speed increases only happen at...

    A better PC for Minecraft, what to get?

    I haven't done it in quite awhile, but when I did SLI it was often a headache. I still see it a fair bit in forums as the source of problems for games. I don't recommend it, unless you plan to do high resolution gaming. ( 2560x1600 at a minimum, though a 970 could handle that very well too, so...

    A better PC for Minecraft, what to get?

    D'oh. Early morning math error. Yea, 15 years old. I also find it funny that you list WoW as modern, exactly why I had to ask:) Judging by the DA:I you mean latest versions of the other 2 as well, which are very current. Everything I have read/seen on the 4690k is indeed positive. ( I don't...

    A better PC for Minecraft, what to get?

    When you say modern games, can you be more specific? I ask because the 2 games you mention are MC, and Everquest ( which recently had its 25th anniversary, and is from 1999 ). Also, what about upcoming games? If you just want to play less graphically intense games up to fairly recently, quad...

    Is Rotarycraft really useful in Monster?

    A heads up: The extractor does not do a set 5 times ore multiplication. It has 4 stages, each with a certain chance to double ores. So, if you stick 1 iron ore in there, you can get very unlucky and get 1 iron out. Or, you can get very lucky and get 16. Also, the average ores you get vary based...

    Reactorcraft Fusion Reactor Experiments

    Update: With 8 injectors, I expected somewhere around 34 HPTs worth of steam. I haven't gotten it entirely stabilized ( that could take an entire day, just for a side experiment ), but it's only running about 26 HPTs. That's pretty far below. Part of the problem is likely the way I am running 8...

    Reactorcraft Fusion Reactor Experiments

    Well, he's "ambivalent" about it:) He approves of the creative use, but doesn't like that a lot of it is built more around the way it is coded than intended. He also doesn't like that it seems to yield the same power as a properly built reactor. Any variation allowing 2 tokamaks to be...

    Reactorcraft Fusion Reactor Experiments

    I'm pretty sure that would be rather trivial. I think you could even use the basic design, then simply line up extra injectors with the current ones, from outside. ( Plasma doesn't interact with anything, so all of the power generation infrastructure shouldn't get in the way. ) Now, it should...

    Reactorcraft Fusion Reactor Experiments

    The core stuff is indeed pretty sensitive, hence having to understand a bit of the code to make the above designs. Once you know what it's trying to do though, some modification becomes apparent. I'm currently trying to think of a way to do a double reactor, but that's surprisingly difficult...
