    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Is it possible to add uranium to the MFR laser miner? And if so, how?

    First ME Encoded Patterns

    Make more patterns. From then on, I make a pattern of everything I build that I might want more of. It is quite nice to make a Q suit or Ultimate solar panel with one click. It actually takes less time with NEI to make all the patterns you need than to actually craft it yourself. It is also...

    Tinkers Construct smeltery questions.

    It is so easy to automate the smeltery. I ran a line of rednet cable above the faucets. I used the redstone clock block that is in unleashed for a timer. I used a vanilla hopper under each casting table/basin. I pointed the hopper all the same way and they feed each other down each side to a...

    Doing some research in the newest IC2_Exp build[138]

    I like the revamp of IC2. It really was old and untouched for so long. The multi tiered leveling they have added is nice. Having to make a few tools at the beginning and then being able to replace them with a machine later is good progression. By the time you have power, making the machines...

    Stopping the constant on-off with an MFSU

    There is a block called a storage monitor in unleashed. It is under teh Advanced Power Management mod tab in NEI. You make it and a link card. Click the link card on your mfsu and put it in the storage monitor. You set a max and min value in the gui and it outputs redstone signal. For instance...

    Steam through Tesseracts

    A LP36 boiler makes 360 mb/t of steam. Liquiducts have somewhere around 100 mb/t. I have seen it listed from 100-160 and not sure which is true. That is just their output, their throughput is almost unlimited. So 4 connections on the boiler and 4 connections to a single tesseract should be fine...

    Compact on-site fuel refinery

    Ain't that the truth. I tried to run them on one line of redstone energy conduit and needed multiple connections just to get the energy to them they needed.

    Greg Tech opinion discussions go here

    Purposely and knowingly distributing software that will cause a crash is the definition of malicious code. It was not an accident or an unintended conflict. You were not informed it was there. This is no different than anything else you download that has something hidden in it that is there for...

    Greg Tech opinion discussions go here

    Greg added code to crash a game that I payed real money for. Prior to this, he had a stupid message popping up. The message was annoying, but writing malicious code is illegal. If someone really wanted to, Greg could be charged in the US under federal laws relating to distributing malicious...

    can i make ethanol with creosote oil?

    Creosote will burn in a liquid boiler too, I used the creosote I had saved up from making steel and coal coke for my 1st power setup to start my new boiler and save biofuel til it was hot. The GT semi fluid generator gives 8 EU/t from it as well.

    Cargo Manager and Buildcraft Pipes

    the colors on the cargo manager should match the side that is facing the tracks for all the slots. Are you trying to pull directly form the manager? or do you have the cargo distributor under it? Using the distributor allows you tell which side of it inputs/outputs and pipes pull from them with...

    Nuclear Reactor problem

    Glad that worked cus i was truly at a loss. Then I remebered they had that issue on one of the early forgecraft servers when boilers and steam were still fairly new. Steam didn't work well with them since the steam turbines only put out 100 EU. They worked much better outputting EU directly. In...

    Nuclear Reactor problem

    There is a config somewhere that makes reactors output steam instead of EU. Not sure if it is in IC2 config or if it is something railcraft adds. Not sure how it would have gotten changed, but I can't really think of anything else. Your setup looks right.

    Redpower Replacements

    Everything I see for 1.6 says your current world won't work and many servers will run FTB 1.4.7 versions until there is an update. I'm staying on 1.4.7 since that is what the server I play on runs like a lot of people. I'd rather wait for every mod to be ready and implemented on forgecraft for...

    Redpower Replacements

    You accuse me of trying to start a flame war, of which my 36 year old self has no want or intention of doing. Isn't starting another RP2 thread instead of using the search function the real culprit?

    Redpower Replacements

    I am not a RP2 fanboy, I just really like the mod as part of FTB. It's a good thing to explore the other mods. I find that many of the things I would like to do are impossible with just a single mod. I think my automation and sorting is running on about 10 different mods working together.

    Lighting for my Base

    factorization Wrath lamps light a 21x21x30 area evenly. The only issue I know of with them is you can't use them for tree farms. Something with how they light and the way the tree checks for room to grow makes trees not grow.

    Oil Ocean - Mystcraft. Is it possible?

    If oil ages are so useless, why did they decide to add oil biomes to buildcraft in the latest version? I use fuel in my boilers and it is much simpler than making biofuel conventionally. I haven't tried the MFR way, but it seems good. Of course my fuel source is refined bees with the fast...

    Redpower Replacements

    Here's an idea. Why not learn the meaning of patience. Redpower isn't the only mod not 1.5 ready. And Elo says she is working on it. Who needs a replacement when you can have the original

    Do you think IC2 is dead?

    Loved it. Made me laugh a few times and think back. I honestly would have read an even longer version.
