    [1.7.10][LISTED] InfiTech 2 Modpack v3.2.21 [HQM][GregTech balanced hard-mode modpack]

    I haven't made a cobalt level. Sounds like a lot. How much is that ? It depends upon how much of the followning you'll be doing: diamond/emerald dusts into their gems Galacticraft plates bedrockium drums But, since you have that much, I'd go ahead and setup a couple of LV Assemblers...

    If you've researched Duplication, you can use a nearly identical setup (charcoal and cobblestone in) to turn 1 gunpowder into 2. Use the eIO input/output (full duplex) mode to cycle your gunpowder back into the alchemical construct to make more.

    AE2 works, but is arguably the most expensive (by far) autocrafting solution in this pack and - ironically - by the time you have such an AE2 auto-crafting system, you're probably not making too many more GT machines. @Dentvar What @Xavion said. Most mods implement damage using vanilla NBT...

    Cobalt pickaxes are Level 3, as are Thaumcraft shard pickaxes (no Thaumcraft required !), as are Thaumium (very little Thaumcraft required). All of these are early-game Level 3 pickaxes.

    Heh heh. I've always wanted to breed fish, too. Just never got around to it. At least they look cool. Each species of fish has a different shape, unlike bees. I think Mariculture has more fishy/water sounds, too. Bees don't even buzz.

    Yes !! Here's what I do: 1. Enable Binnie's for the Acclimitizer 2. Stick Max. Fert. Princess and Drone (ex. Wintry or Majestic) into Acclimitizer with Ice Blocks, water wax capsules, and lava wax capsules, and let run 3. Stick back in with just sand and let run 4. Take finished Princess and...

    There are indeed Redstone veins. They are relatively easy to find in the Nether, and harder to find in the Overworld. Finding Redstone in the Overworld is about as frustrating/long as finding Tin. Do you have flight yet ?

    If you have Demonic, you have Glowstone and Lava. You can centrifuge lava in an MV centrifuge to get gold, copper, tin, and tungsten. You don't have to let your centrifuges run all the time, but let them run overnight and you'll be doing good for those metals. You'll need either repair those...

    Blue Mahoe has the best sappiness in this pack, i.e. the best biomass rating per sapling. You will be net positive with Blue Mahoe if you do everything else right. The problem with straight Blue Mahoe is the trees take forever to mature (hint : try breeding in some Apple Oak maturity), they are...

    Yeah, I don't even bother with the GC containers except for Oxygen, which I need to wear on my back. For the fuel, I used ExUt drums and piped fuel in and out using eIO fluid conduits. One drum will hold enough fuel for many launches.

    @Dlur100 Forestry is HARD mode in this pack. Most packs use Forestry EASY or NORMAL. In HARD, all energy costs are increased 4x and Ethanol energy from Ethanol is reduced. To even *break even*, you're going to have to have the most efficient machine setup possible, which is: Forestry Fermenter...

    Well, you know, some of just are just born natural MC players. I still can't drink milk without spilling it. And, bathrooms scare me.

    Keep your hammers simple. Just stone hammers should work fine.

    Thaumcraft Alchemical Construct - faster automation possible?

    You severely misunderstand. Look at my picture. One tube per essentia. Don't try to put multiple through same tube.

    Thaumcraft Alchemical Construct - faster automation possible?

    + = Not enough suction. TC4 suction is affected by distance. Either move your storage directly adjacent to constructs or your producers directly adjacent.

    Thaumcraft Alchemical Construct - faster automation possible?

    There's your problem. You want the most difference between the essentia producer and the consumer. Hence, eliminate the middle storage and pipe straight into the construct. Here's my setup: Charcoal in the alchemical furnaces could not keep my construct fed fast enough. I had to use alumentum...

    Build yourself a 9x9x8 RC Steel tank. Holds >20,000 buckets of steam. Depending upon how you're making steam, you can setup BC Gates to turn your steam producers on or off as needed.

    I've heard rumors of a whisper of perhaps someone possibly finding some in the End...maybe. Last world, I used bees, but will try asteroids this time around.
