    Weren't BC Hoppers removed when the Vanilla ones were added?

    Bigest oil gyser you have Seen/used

    If it works like Saltpeter spawner blocks, and my gut instinct tells me that they do (CovertJaguar is developing for both RC and BC), then yes, they can be moved by Portal/Gravity Gun. Still, it is rather cheaty... I'd just build a Desert mining age for the increased Oil spawn, set a Mining...

    OR, do Solars, and simply use Electric Engines for your MJ power needs. Nuclear is renewable, sort of. With an efficient enough setup and breeders, you can make more EU per piece of Uranium than it takes to make Uranium with UU-Matter, and at that point, you just keep it going. Oil -> Fuel is...

    On the topic of Silverwood Trees and Nodes... To speed up the process, do a lot of transmuting on the node you want to convert over to pure, before merging the Pure node with it. The thing is, it's not the max size of the node that's taken into account with the merge, but the current size. So...

    Are there many of us?

    Of the mods on minecraftforum that i've seen that track their downloads, the most popular ones have 20~30k downloads, so, definitely more people than a basketball court that play modded Minecraft. If we are willing to concede that most players that want to play modded minecraft WON'T want to...

    TConstruct Problem Please HELP !

    Uhm, Copper and Aluminium are not Vanilla as well, but are supported. My guess is it'll be added, eventually. Especially with Forge Dictionary and all intercommunication between the more popular modders.

    How to drain liquid DNA from iron tank?

    Normally i wouldn't advocate cheating in any way, but, wouldn't it then be easier to spawn in an appropriate amount of Liquid DNA when the change occurs? You know... Write down the amount, then spawn in enough capsules to get to that, then delete the capsules from the world. If you're in a...

    What is your ExtraBiomesXL/Biomes O' Plenty Biome?

    EXBL: Marshlands - Like swamps, but better to build in. BOP: That one that has ash all over and dirt that catches you on fire. Ash is useful as shit. So much coal!

    Would you like to see a Modded Super Hostile Map?

    Actually, with Command Blocks and restricted crafting, EE3 can be a very interesting thing to put in a modpack such as this. For instance: disable minium shard drops from mobs, and now you CAN'T craft a minium stone. But then, you put some minium stones with 10 uses left in them hidden away in...

    Dartcraft: One of the most overpowered mods of our time

    Early Game Flight: True, but it's a severely limited form of flight, more useful to escape dangerous situations than to get from point A to point B. Too little flight time. Fortune: Manual mining isn't everyone's cup of tea, and building a mob trap and enchantment table gets you Fortune III...

    Alternative to wireless redstone or Redpower?

    I'm not the best at vanilla Redstone, but when put adjacent to an inventory, they detect the amount of items present in that inventory, and output a signal strength that is proportional to the amount of items inside in proportion to the available space, so the more items it detects, the bigger...

    Soul Shards for power

    Easy to explain. They don't care about the player to spawn, but they do care about the player in regards to despawn timer. If there's no player in however many amount of blocks next to the T4/5, mobs despawn much faster. This was done after unattended T4/5's murdered many a server and the whine...

    Mining well nerfs.....

    This is a good thing. It doesn't actually nerf the Mining Well, only puts it in the same ballpark as the quarry. They can still be used in frame mining machines just as well as they had been before, it will only require more power - the same amount of power as a fully powered quarry, only it...

    Thoughts on MFR

    I wish every mod could be as beautiful like Thaumcraft is... For all it's flaws, the Arcane Bore is simply amazing looking. Big disco-like magic laser that harvests blocks like it's nobodies business? Sign me up.

    eye level at Y 12, gets you Y 11, 12, and 13, or Y level 13, gets you 12, 13, 14. Both share somewhat the same concentration of diamonds, but eye level at Y 13 almost guarantees you won't find major lava lakes or waterfalls above your head. Although eye level at Y 12 will get you more Lapis and...
