    [1.6.4] Material Energy^3 [JamPacked] [HQM] [CTM] [Beta]

    Newest version on FTB is listed at 1.0.4, forum says 1.4.5 is FTB way behind? I have also installed a fresh FTB and redownloaded ME^4 several times and the textures on the loading screen are broken.

    Help with what I should do?

    18) Grav / Quantum Suit 18-a) Did a canon ball run... Dense ores FTW :) 19) Futz with Villagers and filled my workshop with them with a derpa moment, then they all killed themselves with another. 20) Beekeeping breeding a pure strain of imperial and industrial, (9 of each now), full automation...

    Help with what I should do?

    I enjoyed things in my (only in my head) logical order: 1) basic workshop 2) Peat Farm / Tree Farm 3) Boiler (BC power) 4) Gates and automation for my Boiler (yay no more babysitting) 5) MystCraft exploration (looking for crystals) 6) IC2 power gen (Geo system @ 240 Eu/t) 7) HovelDepot (fully...

    yeah, I know... But I already did that for my oil derrick, gotta do some new fancier thing now :) Besides a UFO thingy floating around sucking up resources is all the rage. :)

    Magic Pack

    Thanks, will wait for RP to update the server. I guess it also is missing IC2, so it would definately break things.

    Help with hooking up my quarry

    I use a liquid transposer / Enderchest to recycle cans of fuel to my quarry's 2 combustion engines. A slight waste of power, but they work so efficiently it burns little fuel in a maxed size quarry. I use the same can transport system to move oil from my oil rig to my refineries at my main...

    Magic Pack

    Will the Magic Pack Nuke my existing map? Or can I seemlessly update without losing things?

    Upgrades in IC2

    I am running it at 8 OCs, 2 PUs, and 2 TUs at 512.. the issue is that if I can't stack the Upgrades past 4 pieces per stack I can't get 9 on a device as the 9th requires both a Power Storage upgrade and transformer upgrade to function correctly. (only 4 upgrade slots). I realize another...

    Upgrades in IC2

    After blowing up my workshop with an errant cable placement (bloody mess, GT crap blows up HUGE), I rebuilt the workshop, but have found I am unable to stack any upgrade past 4... this is becoming an issue as my recycler is now receiving (I recently build a trash processor to make slabs) more...

    What're your favorite new discoveries in FTB?

    My favorite so far ( and likely getting nerfed in my next server install )... Cannon Ball Runs.. Gear up, grab a laser and outrun the corruption/lag in a dense ore Age... what fun. Want more fun, play it Russian Roulette style with no more than enchanted diamond armor/potions (HAHA GL). The...

    Geothermal Generator + The Nether

    I got both crystal age, and dense ores within 40 ages... maybe I was lucky. Now I'm just trying to find out how to exploit Pandara! :)

    Geothermal Generator + The Nether

    The way I do it: Railcart liquid loader and unloaders, pump, mystcraft portals set the unloader to hold until empty and watch it fill your tank :) works like a charm but requires you find a crystal age

    Fusion Reactor insanity...

    Sciguy is right, but you actually just have to remove it from teh server mods folder, even if the clients have it installed they can play, and I beleive even craft the old recipes (just nei is messed up). At worst, they just remove the mod (its what I ended up doing). Once my friends and I are...

    Launcher Suggestions

    One last thing (I promise). Another stopgap to limit bandwidth if its not already being done is to limit the update check to once a day or hour or X-time, so each launcher is only checking for an update infrequently. This again will help manage bandwidth usage. Yes XML file is small, but if...

    Launcher Suggestions

    Hello Punny! XML is great, same great taste just a different format. But possibly the XML file is hosted at the same location as the mod pack downloads themselves. So when the server is slammed with say 4-8K people downloading the pack, the XML files get lost in the meltdown. If the XML...

    Windows .jar Auto-updating Mods.

    I don't know if its that drastic, when they all use FML to load properly. The FTB folks have alot of sway with FML and these mod loaders and could suggest a unified update checks to run through a module of FML or of their own making, which could then be disabled the same way vanilla elements...

    Windows .exe Changing Memory Allocation

    What's sad is the only 32bit java that's ever been installed was installed when I first installed windows, and it should have been removed when I installed 64bit(?) at least one would think. So it seems I have a 32bit installer auto updating and fubaring the 64bit install that I want it to use...

    Windows .exe Changing Memory Allocation

    I notice the 32bit java.. but its 64bit installed on my computer. I notice every time java updates, I lose the ability to set the memory, but once I manually re-install 64bit java despite its objections it solves that issue, but not other lock ups. Now that you noticed that and brought it to...

    Windows .jar Auto-updating Mods.

    With the mod pack being a static release, they should add code to disable version checking in the individual mods to eliminate the issue.

    Launcher Suggestions

    Some launcher suggestions that may be worth considering. 1) Build in a bittorrent client for the distribution of the mod pack files, or package launcher with mod pack through a torrent. This will ease the bandwidth demands of what I guess is at least 120GB in the last week by distributing it...
