    Bug Wither Skeleton Autospawing? - Partially Solved

    I can't explain why they have stopped working. All I can do is suggest an alternate way of spawning them. Use some sort of block placer or even AE formation planes to physically place the blocks that form the Wither. You just need to place them high above the area you are killing them in so they...

    Connecting Railcraft Tanks to AE2 ME Networks

    I doubt you can connect the P2P directly to the tank. The way the P2P connector figures out what it's type will be is from what it connects to. Use a pipe that can auto extract from the tanks between the tank and P2P. The connector should then realize it's a fluid P2P. Your output P2p...

    Connecting Railcraft Tanks to AE2 ME Networks

    I would suggest anyone who hasn't spent much time playing with P2P network, play with them and learn how they work. They work for almost everything. I like using them for keeping cabling jobs under control. One ME cable going to an area that is carrying power, fluid, and items is much easier and...

    Large RF throughput systems

    Thermal Expansion Tesseracts work the same as Ender IO Dimensional transceivers, but they are lossless and have infinite throughput. Another option many people forget about is Applied Energistics. It can transfer RF and EU power using P2P tunnels. Simply place a P2P tunnel on your network...

    Wither farming?

    Formation planes work just fine. That is what I am using to place the sand and skulls.

    Wither farming?

    Like the poster above me said, it only picks up items on the ground. It can't pull them out of a chest. You will also need more WIU's to make it reach to the edges of a spawning area. You may need more speed upgrades, depending on how fast you spawn the withers so the items one wither drops...

    Wither farming?

    An Extra utilites transfer node wiht world interaction upgrades can be placed below the floor of the killing room and will pick up the items through blocks. My current setup uses AE formation planes to place the soul sand and skulls. It is around 20 blocks above the killing room to protect it...

    Big Reactor Steam Turbines and Thaumcraft Arcane Lamps

    I have an arcane lamp over each of my turbines to light up the rooms they are in. It hasn't caused any issues. I am playing Infinity, so don't think it would be any difference in the DW20 pack.

    Lets See Some Bases! Give Us a Tour!

    I always use the terrain when I build. I have to agree that completely flat towns look odd. The big building on the left is my power plant. When I built it, the only thing on the island was my base building(the basalt brick/dark oak slab roof up near the church) The rest of the island was...

    Lets See Some Bases! Give Us a Tour!

    Been playing this Infinity world for a few months now off and on. Found what seemed like a large island, until I started filling it up. Currently doing some terraforming to add a few "acres". Here's what I have so far. Some building are just decorative, but most are set up with different mods in...

    A Question about the Minefactory Reloaded Planter and Harvester

    You shouldn't need the planter. MFR harvester should only harvest the top of the sugar cane. The harvester also works with plants that you right click to harvest such as Agricraft and Pam's Harvestcraft. You can use just vanilla sugar cane, but if you have agricraft and breed sugar cane to it's...

    Mod Mechanics you like/don't like

    Growing AE2 crystals is annoying. AE2 addons mod takes care of this with a crystal growth chamber. No water or dropping items. Having to move a manager from Steve's Factory Manager and losing your program. Fortunately, Steve's addons adds a program copier. Thaumcraft crucible crafting...

    Gameplay issues with Daybreaker

    Storage drawers. The mod adds a drawer controller. You make a wall of the drawers and you can then pipe items into the controller and it puts the items where they belong. The compacting drawers are also nice. Throw metal in them and they allow you to pull out ingots, blocks, or nuggets. (They...

    Automatic Inscribers

    This is my setup using Ender IO and AE. AE only exports materials and imports the final product. Ender IO handles everything in between. A ME interface has the recipes for each logic circuit and drops the item into the chest. The recipes are simple. 1 diamond, 1 gold, or 1 quartz = the...

    FTB Horizons: Daybreaker Discussion

    The crusher from Mekanism. Upgrading it to the 7 slot factory version with speed upgrades should do that. Make sure to put the energy upgrades too or the RF cost is way to high to be worth the speed.

    FTB Horizons: Daybreaker Discussion

    My infused one is making somewhere around 12k RF/t. Getting it to work was a real challenge. I must have built 10-20 of them over the course of several days in my test world to try different sizes and play with timing. So completely worth it though. I have a Mekanism induction coil that is...

    FTB Horizons: Daybreaker Discussion

    I loved them until I realized how lossy they are. I realized later I could have changed the config, but I had a RF Entangler from Quantum flux by then. Once you have those, running wires long distance is over. Now I just put down an energy cube at each machine area with an exciter to power each...

    FTB Horizons: Daybreaker Discussion

    You have to stand where the water wheel goes when you place the dynamo. They seem to be one sided. Also power can only come out of the top of them. As for getting power out, you can place an IE LV, MV, or HV connector on an energy cube and connect it to the dynamo. What I did to save running...

    What cool little thing have you discovered today?

    I found an interesting use for Mekanism lasers. The laser can break blocks. When fired through the Laser Tractor Beam, it collects the items it breaks. It can be used for mining or farming. Here's a little sugar can farm I made using them. Just add a timer to the laser and it would be automated...

    FTB Horizons: Daybreaker Discussion

    Player API mod needs to be added to the pack to fix being able to go to the Extra utilities dimensions(Deep Dark, Last Millenium). After some research, it seems the Galacticraft gives the extra slots(space gear) by creating a fake player. This causes problems with EU dimensions. Simply adding...
