For mass leaves, a MFR harvester is 1 way. but you have to move it all the time. I usually make a TiC hatchet with a steel head (or better). This will 1-shot leaves and use 0 durability. so you stand in an area. hold the mouse button down and spin. All the leaves vanish within your 5 block...

number of cores makes no difference with minecraft. in the desktop world, Intel GHz are faster than AMD GHz -- so a 4Ghz Intel chip will run faster than a 4Ghz AMD chip, but of course the AMD chip will cost less. You get what you pay for.

Simple UNTESTED program I whipped up local width=20 local depth=20 turtle.select(1) turtle.refuel(1) turtle.up() turtle.select(2) for a=1,2 do for x=1,width do while turtle.getFuleLevel() < 1 turtle.select(1) turtle.refuel(1) turtle.select(2) end...

if your buying a brand-name server from Dell or HP or somebody. Prices start around $2k and go UP from there $5k - $15k - $300k So if money is an issue -- your better off building a dedicated machine. DZCreeper posted a good parts list. But I would go for a faster CPU like this one...

The only trouble we ran into was the xps needed to copy some of the books. A mob grinder or automated xp generator is required.

How will this deal with ores added by other mods? copper? tin? lead? silver? dark iron? aluminum? starillite? and so on ... Same question for other types of stone? marble, basalt, quarried stone? Having things 'gated' by skill or perk is a good way to encourage progression, but you have to...

I found the bibliocraft stuff works best in a multiplayer server where you have a central enchanting room. People bring in their enchanted books to the "library" and have a chance to copy existing books to get the exact enchants they want. Since you can copy the books.. once you get an...

Defense from what? on a PvP-like server that might mean something. But from zombies, creepers and other mobs? ... The MOST I will do is a lava moat. But once I have Ghast tears for a magnum torch, its a moot point.

The parts look good on both systems except for the PSU on the first one. Never heard of that brand. They could be great, or they could be utter crap, I dunno. If you want to save some $$, get the 650watt version of the Seasonic PSU and put that in the first system. What kind of case are you...

I also like optifine for the extra visual effects Clear water No Fog Turn off smoke particles only (so i can fly around as a blaze and still see). The extra FPS is a nice bonus, but not required as I can get 60fps+ without it.

If its just pure finances - you can buy a LOT of electricity for $10 a month (unless your power cost per MW are super high). I understand not being able to keep it on all the time for "various reasons". Some make sense, some do not. I run my PC 24/7 until it gets too hot in the summer, and...

so if your java arguments are blank in the launcher, then something else is adding them. sometimes this can come from an environment variable "JAVA_OPTIONS" check if you have this. Start Menu -> Computer (right click), pick properties -> Advanced system settings -> Advanced tab (usually 3rd...

I usually use a magnum torch (or 2) around my base to stop mobs from spawning. Not sure what mod this is from, but there is an "inverted lamp" available in lots of colors. I put those in a grid across my floor for lights. Since they are flat, they blend in nicely with most floors. But...

When i was first getting to know twilight forest - I found one of those minotaur dungeons and set a turtle to start excavating it. Seeing as this was going to take a while I figured i would just float and play chunkloader while I was afk. This way no mobs would attack. Forgot I was in blaze...

my biggest beef is with the AE terminal updating while Im trying to pull something out. So I windup with a stack of something I dont want.

AE2 looks like it can be a lot of fun. For everyone complaining about the meteors ... A solution has already been provided -- the compass. From what I read, everyone is assuming the plates will be inside a chest in the meteor and the compass will point you to the chest. Which is fine until...

A different option, is to use the TE compression dynamo with ethanol. Take saplings from your tree farm, run them through a fermenter to get the green biomass, put the biomass in a still to get the orange ethanol. Feed that into compression dynamo. Take apples from your tree farm, put them in...

my usual progression: Vanilla startup: punch tree, crafting table, wood pick, find a hillside, dig in. Make a chest, furnace, torches. find food: plant seeds, or kill off the local wildlife. Then I go mining for iron ore. The goal is to get 36 iron ores. While mining collect 12 each: sand...

If you give java "too much" ram then it will lag your game when it runs garbage collection. the garbage collection has to scan ALL of the memory you gave java, so the more memory you give it, the longer the scan will take. Set your texture pack to vanilla and try 3g WITHOUT optifine. Another...

if you break the cable nexto your ME controller and re-place it. does that fix it? Also check your chunk loaders. ive seen some wierdness when cables and pipes cross from a loaded chunk to a unloaded chunk.
