    [1.7.10] Shattered

    IE Coal Coke won't work in the Railcraft Blast Furnace. doh, tough cave spider got me while I was looting smeltery parts from a chisel ruin. World gone. :p Lol, fallen knight got me in a new world and I noticed that I dropped a loot bag. Couple tips: Instead of spending 8 planks on a storage...

    My tanks are acacia, but I doubt that matters. WAILA works for me for the tanks but I copied the various bits of WAILA over from another pack.

    The speed with which a Railcraft tank will accumulate water depends on the biome. As far as keeping up with an agricraft tank it doesn't keep up with the tank, it keeps up with however many sprinklers you have hanging off of it, right? I've got a railcraft tank feeding an agricraft tank with no...

    [1.7.10] Shattered

    I setup a blue slime source block to flow downhill hoping I'd get a slime out of it now and then. No slimes but lots of squids, some of which dropped lootbags. Might be worth making a farm of that type at the very start just for the loot bags. The squids flow to the end of the water and...

    Protip: Don't watch a movie on another monitor while playing hardcore mode. Died of thirst about 3m from 4 water tanks. doh. How do you fill camel pack now? Used to be water bottles in a crafting table with the pack but I don't see that recipe in NEI and it doesn't seem to work in any...

    OK, moving right along with that clay recipe for the squeezer. Have 3 water tanks, a coke oven, and a field of humus. Time to do some agricraft cross-breeding to get some crop variety. Going to be painful without a watering can. Might do some more railcraft tanks and think about a sprinkler...

    [1.7.10] Shattered

    Playing on Hardcore, third world I tried is pretty good. Have 2 water tanks, shelter, food farm, basic ticon tools. Cannot find clay deposit anywhere. Not sure how people are starving in the first few days. Don't jump. Don't run. Don't fight. Don't mine/chop anything that isn't mission...

    It is hardmode Gregtech. Lots of microcrafting. Lots of manual labor pre-LV. Not significantly different than Infitech---they're both hard mode GT after all---when it comes to grind. If you liked infitech2 you'll like this pack.

    It works great. To make it work quickest in my experience put a block of wood in front of the portal, put the lava one block over and down so it flows underneath the wood, then place dirt block on every other face of the wood block except the side where the portal forms so that if it does catch...

    You could just use a bucket of lava and a block of wood to light the Nether portal.

    You don't get charcoal by smelting wood in GT, so no, no charcoal. Be nice if iguanatweaks would let you throw a weapon in the smeltery to recover the metals.

    Looks like oil has changed a lot since the last time I used diesels. Used to be able to do that LV-era, looks like I need the Distillation Tower multiblock and MV now?

    If you're desperate you can process it with a hammer in a crafting table and then drop the impure dust into a cauldron with water in it. NOTE: You can drop entire stacks at a time. Don't do what I did and throw it in 1 dust at a time and have to fill up that cauldron too many times before...

    Did a few runs with the EBF. Time to come up with a better power source so I can run it full time. Guess tree farm into charcoal/ethanol into large boiler/diesel gen is the next logical step. Last time I did this I used Thaumcraft tree farms and a ludicrous number of coke ovens.

    The power of the healing axe is mine! I rush it in any pack where hunger overhaul can be a pain. I ended up crafting most of the food but I think you could eventually find all of it in dungeon chest loot.

    Maple Syrup? no recipe in NEI, don't get any as drops when cutting down maple trees(oh wait, wrong maple trees, these are natura). Looks like Pam's has them too, can make a sapling if I already had the syrup but I don't so I suppose it means I search the overworld for a pam's maple tree...

    Yeah, I've gone through about 50 of them, drop rate on rice isn't that hot. I'll just work on other things while they spread out again.

    How do I get rice seed? Working on the healing axe quest and the only way I can find to get rice is water gardens.

    Time for some logic quest doesn't accept casings made in the alloy smelter, only if you make them in crafting table with a hammer, FYI.
