Oh that's fine and all, it's just that for a while you were sick, then said you'd get it done, and then nothing for about a week so I was actually a bit worried something might've happened :O

Yay, the latest dev builds of TC are in RC3 right now. Hopefully with it being updated we'll see Wyld come out of the rock he hid under and get 0.9 out :p Seriously though, where has he been :O

Well when I see one they stick out like a sore thumb, but I've only found the magic bees hives (which aren't even in nei) when using BoP and haven't seen a single Extra Bees hive unless I turn it off completely (BoP still spawns the nether in a "normal" world). This could just be luck, but the...

Ok, how rare are the nether bee hives supposed to be and what are good ways to look for them?

Um wow, just messed around a bit with the reactor turbines and O_o. Each large reactor turbine can outproduce 18 industrial steam engines in power, but a single boiler can easily supply the steam for 9 of them. That's makes them overwhelmingly efficient in power production since they require...

It mines out a 3x3 area, has more durability, and can achieve higher speeds with just stone and flint because of stonebound. For stonebound only the flint would count, but you can get a hammer made of stone with flint plates and it will reach 9 mining speed before it breaks (you'll mostly use...

Well yea, you want to get iron as you're looking for diamonds. MY main point was get a hammer so you can clear much more land while looking for the diamonds, not to forgo looking for everything else to get iron. Personally I recommend using silk touch on the tools though since your bags will...

Or if you're using Tinker's Construct rush a completed smelter with a casting basin, a bucket, and 18 iron ore, make a tool station after getting the 4 iron blocks, build a hammer, and then do what bigglesworth said. The time it takes to get a full smelter and the iron is vastly offset by the...

18 - it's 720 steam at 40 steam per engine.

If it's a weapon it gets looting, if it's a tool it gets fortune, and in the dev builds if it can be used as either it gets both.

You can't increase your weight tolerance but you can counteract the weight gains using stuff like the sprint assist. That said it won't help with flight.

The config for it might be different in that mod pack. What everyone seems to be missing is that it's a mine shaft so close to diamond level. Due to how ores spawn in caves there's a higher chance for diamonds to show up in the mine shafts than if you just mine through solid rock.

FTFY Seriously though it is important to know that it would be a lower viscosity since liquids (or gases) with lower viscosities than water flow more freely while higher viscosity liquids (like honey or oil) kinda stick and don't flow as easily. Of course that's more for real life since...

I like the sounds of the machines but they're way too loud, especially when you're playing at night with people sleeping :P

Yup, that's why I'm only using it temporarily in place of transformers. I plan on using mostly conduits for the machines I can once I get to em. Having my vertical shaft go through 3 caves, an abandoned mine, and ending next to two lava pools kinda makes expanding my mine take a bit longer...

Well, it's a good thing I checked in a test world first... It seems the other bonus of the universal bale is it acts like a transformer so by using it you can avoid having IC2 machines go boom. For now I'll use those until I get some actual transformers though since it seems a bit too easy :X

By mix and matching. The rule of thumb mDiyo came up with is if it costs 8 pieces it's a "head" and if it costs 3 it's a "rod." Material bonuses are added no matter the piece, so obsidian bindings will give reinforced 3, for example. As I mentioned earlier (probably in a diff thread though)...

Not the right aluminum. There's aluminum from TC and then there's aluminum from Gregtech which you usually get from centrifuging stuff. You'll need the latter.

Wow, either I got extremely lucky or cassiterite from Gt needs to be toned down a bit. Found one vein that I'm still working on and I'm nearly at 2 stacks of the stuff. With this one vein I'll be set on tin for a long time to come -_- Edit: I gave up mining it all up after a little over 2...

At the very least they don't draw 32 mj/t worth of power from the energy cube when all the machines are idle :P Also, already having to deal with radiation in my mines under my house cause of all the ore. I decided not to take any chances and stash the uranium by itself in a chest away from...
