    Redpower Timer Alternative

    Yea, didn't think of just mixing a pulser with repeaters to delay the signal. Guess that comes with wanting to over-engineer everything - you tend to miss the easiest solutions :P

    Having a silly problem with a Tinkers Construct tool...

    Def looks like bronze to me as well. Also, the auto-repair only repairs dur if the tool isn't completely broken. If it's completely broken no matter how high the dur goes you still need to repair it with an ingot.

    Having a silly problem with a Tinkers Construct tool...

    Pics would indeed help, though another method would be to compare the speed of the tool where available, as well as damage and if it has any extra attributes (such as reinforced). That said, moss does make it hard to tell.

    Redpower Timer Alternative

    I've never actually seen a vanilla timer built only on redstone so I wouldn't know how that would work. The only problem with a water clock is the entities disappear after 5 minutes, hence a loop that would prevent it from disappearing would be one to work with. Or use a computer. I think...

    Redpower Timer Alternative

    This talk of timers reminded me of the old water clocks you could make. This probably wouldn't be too hard to imitate using droppers and obsidian pipes, but would definitely take up more space than a simple timer. Another interesting setup might be a timer based on the new drawbridges from...

    The future of FTB Modpacks pt 2

    The only mod that seems to be removed from ngt appears to be the mod that added the different nether portals so the worlds should port fine if the configs don't change too much. I would suggest starting a new world though since extra trees was added to extra bees to create Binnie's mods...

    New Mod Packs ***Released***

    It has been stated by those working with the modpacks that there isn't any planned forward compatibility. Part of this is due to the new liquid code forge is going to be using in 1.6 that will delete liquids in tanks, part of it is new world gen, and another part is we don't know what mods will...

    New Mod Packs ***Released***

    That's what I'm referencing from your post. I was just saying no, even if they were compatible (which the mods are, just not the mod authors) they would not have been nor will ever be put in the same pack by FTB. In my first post I explicitly said by FTB as well.

    New Mod Packs ***Released***

    Well yea, but you were saying they would be put in the same pack if they were compatible. If we're to believe the mod author's for now they are compatible as of now, but they don't want each other's mods put together.

    New Mod Packs ***Released***

    No, GT and TiC will never be in the same modpack from FTB ever again at mDiyo's request.

    New Mod Packs ***Released***

    Well the first step to new modpacks generally tends to be updating the launcher Airship, but don't get too excited.

    Benefit of silktouch with no gregtech?

    From the looks of it that's what it seems to be since for Lapis it gives a chance at lapis dust and it adds the recipes to the rock crusher as well.

    FTB Mod Discussion: Greg-Tech

    So explain to me again why it was a good idea for DerelleBot (was DerailBot taken?) to necro a thread that was nearly 2 months old and then for people to continue holding a conversation in this thread relating to events that happened within the last week, long after this poll was effectively...

    Benefit of silktouch with no gregtech?

    Yea, which is why I found it odd when the pulverization recipe was different when I loaded up ngt since I don't understand why the pulv recipe would change between the two versions. Only other thing I can think of is another mod I added changed the pulv recipe when I was using it but that...

    Benefit of silktouch with no gregtech?

    That's odd, in .8wgt pulverizing it gave 10 redstone and a 10% chance for glowstone, but in ngt it's just 8 redstone.

    Benefit of silktouch with no gregtech?

    IT would depend on the ore and if it had alternative outputs when pulverized. Personally I would prefer to pulverize redstone for the chance of glowstone than just fortune redstone since redstone is very easy to get and doesn't require going to the nether, but then I try putting nether trips off...

    Benefit of silktouch with no gregtech?

    With Extra Utils you can craft cobble in a 3x3 grid to compress it as well, and that's in the beta packs as well as the new ones. Personally though I plan on setting up an auto-packager system for my cobble.

    New Mod Packs ***Released***

    Question, for the Unleashed pack will MFR rubber trees spawn or only IC2?
  19. D

    Benefit of silktouch with no gregtech?

    When mining with a hammer you'll definitely want to use silktouch since just the cobble can fill your bags in minutes. Also, if you pulverize redstone you have a chance at glowstone.

    New Mod Packs ***Released***

    Personally I'm just glad to see that Unleashed should be up soon™, I just hope that it's up before I go to bed~
