I know it helps at least somewhat, but I don't know how well they stack. I've just used Charged, turned my volume off, and built my quarry completely underground. Scorched Earth degrades stone and possibly metal, even underground. In a world with 64 Scorched, I kept running into individual...

Which plants for the planters depends on whether or not you use MFR Fertilizer. If you do, mushrooms and Natura's cherry and ghostwood trees in the corners of a 9x9 Planter will give you LOTS of fuel sources. Using just one square of each and Fertilizer will give you more than you can use...

I think Omicron means that whenever he needs something that needs a different source of power he builds it instead of simply hooking it up to his current system. So if he was currently using IC2 and needed a Rolling Maching for RC tanks, he enjoys creating a small MJ power source to run it as...

Roses and dandilions (four each), cocoa, netherwart, pumpkins (requires autocrafting for seeds), and melons (requires finding the seeds, then placing and breaking melons, then autocrafting for seeds) are the base plants that work here. Though placing two Crops between plants crossbreeds them...

I managed to get eight Generators working without running out of plants with just the unbred plants. The biggest surplus was pumpkin seeds. By a huge amount. I had more than a stack of seeds in my AE storage while having the two stacks in the Reactor. While having less than a stack of...

I originally used crops to get redstone. When that didn't work (the plants usually give no crop when harvested, without breeding, and are extremely difficult to get) I started using them for stickweed. Renewable sticky resin without resorting to tapping trees? Yes please. And it's now...

Back in 1.4.7 I made an oil world with lots of charged pages to counter the oil's instability. Then I built a ceiling to block the lightning. And turned my sound off. Don't know about now, but the Mushroom Island Edge page, when used with flat, only built up to level 6, leaving over fifty...

I wanted to check how much crossbreeding I would have to do with IC2's Crops to run a Bioreactor without running out of fuels. It turns out none at all. There are eight different IC2 plants that can power a Reactor, though one has a duplicate and one requires outside processing. Six of those...

Mushrooms planted using a MFR Planter can be MFR Fertilized (no idea about ones normally placed). I've done that to feed a max-efficiency Bioreactor, and both mushrooms were my biggest surplus by far. And I only planted one square of each mushroom in a 9x9 (Planter's internal filter to give...

Make a chisel from Tinker's Construct. Use that on most vanilla stones to change it a bit, like stone into stone bricks. Or put some stone into a smeltery for seared stone.

I used to make an old Forestry peat farm as my first energy producer, powered by itself. Then followed by a tree farm for wood, not charcoal. The newer Multifarms require so much more resources that they're a later-game machine. I haven't used peat since the old farms were removed :(

Nothing too unusual compared to some here, but I'm in the process of building seven 5x5 (minus center square for water) farms with IC2 Crops to feed a Bioreactor. That's six dyes and netherwart. I'm wondering how much breeding, if any, it will require. Though seven types should be rather...

I think the mulch goes into the bottom of the Fermenter.

The advanced solars require UU matter to make. The compact solars do not. Not to mention that the compact solars are an older mod.

One, make sure it's facing the correct way. There's usually an animated side when powered up, that's the operational side. The opposite side usually has a black spot on it. Two, the Upgrades increase the RADIUS of the machines. Planters, Harvesters, and Fertilizers are 3x3, which means a...

It takes work to get a good supply, but IC2 Crops can be used for a source of red and yellow dye. Although there's no way to make them grow instantly, and it's a lot of work to make fast growing ones, MFR Harvesters work with them. And there's no need to replant Crops. You can also get...

One thing to note is that the more pages there are, the harder it is to get specific pages. When playing without BoP and Twilight Forest I can find the non-biome pages fairly quickly. With those mods active I end up spending hours running in one direction in a Mystcraft age searching for the...

I think I've narrowed it down to ChickenChunks. Disabled it, started a new world, and flew around three different jungles. I still lagged a bit in them but nothing like what I have been, where my game practically shut down within minutes and no GL ERROR. Any idea if a config could fix this...

Yes, but WHICH other mods? Maybe someone's making their own modpack. Or maybe they just learned about modding and tried whatever mod they added first, without knowing what mod packs are? (Note that the latter is what happened to me, before I learned about FTB.) Not to mention that other...

Then I misunderstood what was going on, thanks. I never tried flying that high except on accident, and thought 256 was a hard cap in the game.
