    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    I lack the appeal of Rube Goldberg machines. But hey if you enjoy them, go ahead. For me its fun because it makes you need 'more'. My players used hand mining with TiC tools. So... no power needs. Ive said it 100 times here I think... one guy ran his base off of one multifarm on the...

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    The really telling evidence is that the TPPI pack is repeatedly referenced to being ultimate, AND the pack is basically similar to all other FTB packs... and has gregtech. Its really the main difference, and every thread about it has lots of discussion about gregtech specifically. And to be...

    http://en.reddit.com/r/feedthebeast/comments/1urhx3/whats_your_favorite_modpack/ Highest voting was for ultimate. It wasnt a huge thread, but this was just a blunt question asking the same thing people have done in conversations there for months. Or did you mean the thread about TPPI? Ill...

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    After spending waaaaaay too much time thinking about game balance, I would just say two things: 1: EE3 is really the biggest issue in game balance of any mod. EVER. Remove it, and most of the newer packs I think will be a lot more fun to play. Turtles are second. The new packs are better...

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    I see your point but you are also missing mine. By extending the game out, my friend would have fun for a longer amount of time. In the 4 months it would take him to get to End game with the set of mods we used, we could then try all new mods. But the way the packs are now, he would get bored...

    Why don't people like IC2 anymore?

    Sounds to me like you need an RPG and not a tech mod game. Why not remove the tech mods and put in twilight forest and other RPG mods? I see your point. As long as an MFE has one single pixel on it other than the dot for power, ill be happy. :) or did they get rid of mfes? lol

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    O Rly? There are plenty of people who want to play a harder pack. They jsut arent as vocal.. or they have quit without ever even realizing that things could be changed. The guy who got me into playing played for a year and didnt see the power creep that was happening. When he started he...

    Ill just use an autotext program to put "its my opinion that" at the start of every sentence I make so you don't get your feelings hurt. Would that help?

    Thanks. I found minetweaker but if i install it like a mod, wont all the players have access to it too? Also in case you know this... I downloaded MCedit to change the spaawn point of my world. I download the world folder from my server so I can change it... and MCedit doesn't see the...

    Why don't people like IC2 anymore?

    I thought they were trying to keep the original feel of ic2, which i liked. Im sure if they just scrapped the whole look and went with an entirely new design, there would be a 15 page thread here on why ic2 textures should have stayed more like the original. ;)

    How do you disable a single item in a mod? I read somewhere that you set the ID to zero, but now I can't find anything. It this how to do it?

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    yes we need more people telling me my ideas are not possible 'within the greater ecosystem of all of modded minecraft!' but im setting up magicfarm2 right now, adding ic2, gregtech, railcraft, etc. enabling all gregtech recipes. Guess it wasnt impossible after all.

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    No, there's a difference. Notice a shit ton of people here said they disagreed with my opinion and I just replied with my own? He is telling me NOT to voice my own opinion. Big difference.

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    Easy or hard is subjective. Its easier than I would like a mod to be. Ive listed off plenty of things to back up my opinion, but I its my own opinion. Now if you don't mind, I wont tell you not to voice yours... don't tell me not to voice mine. That's fair, isn't it?

    Why don't people like IC2 anymore?

    After reading this I realized that while I had no big problems with gregtech I also had a lot of ic2 experience before trying it. When I first got started, losing a cable or a generator to an explosion was not really a big deal... losing an expensive piece of gregtech equipment is though, and...

    Why don't people like IC2 anymore?

    Well just installed IC2 exp and have to say that one thing people should ALL be happy about is the awesome textures on the machines now. As long as I have played, people have complained about the IC2 textures and now they are awesome. :)

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    yeah i was wrong on the steel recipe anyway. Funny one of my players spent 5 years playing everquest, he credits WoW with ruining game balance and making MMOs too easy. Mostly im not even concerned about tiny balance arguments. its easy to get into them but really, Ultimate pack was really...

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    Its somewhere i saw, my mistake thinking TE3 added the same recipe. I missed that it was an induction smelter recipe. Still, its another thing that most people relied on railcraft for that is now handled by TE3. Item pipes, now can make steel. Ive read mod authors on minecraftforum.net posts...

    Ahh, I thoguht it was the crafting recipe i saw, that was UE. With induction smelter it is more balanced. My mistake.

    Is Ore processing and sorting disappearing?

    Except railcraft requires getting blaze rods. In another post you said getting to the nether is hardly a thing... do you play on Easy difficulty? Because I normally play on Hard and I dont see anyone hitting a nether fortress on Hard in 5 minutes of play. Youre just trying to dismiss an...
