    is there a way in Ultimate to turn IC2 sounds back on? I miss the sounds of the machines running...

    Tour of the Daimyo Institute (Mindcrack Pack)

    Yeah he must have mistyped. The imgur notes say "ic2 turbine" but it's sphax textures so I can't tell just by looking. He has the old fusion reactor so they can't be gregtech turbines. And looking at the pics a second time is more impressive that the first. Amazing.

    Tour of the Daimyo Institute (Mindcrack Pack)

    Im in ultimate, no steam turbines that I can see...? Ill do more digging, I thought they were new. Still curious about the steam turbines, I thought to have a base that clean and neat, you had to give up on automating everything...

    Tour of the Daimyo Institute (Mindcrack Pack)

    That is seriously amazing. 2 questions if you don't mind: how are gregtech steam turbines existing with redpower in there? Or was that not redpower stuff I saw? Also how did you automate things like centrifuges and hide all the wires? One images shows 8 of them on a wall, 4 stacked on top of...

    Was ethanol nerfed?

    I assume if someone actually goes through all the time and effort to craft one, they know what they are getting into and are likely to enjoy it. You're telling me you learned how to make THE most expensive machine there is, and didn't know it would give you 64k eu/t? And you didn't look on a...

    Was ethanol nerfed?

    Honest question: what is an example of creative things you have done with MFR? NOt being snide, I hear arguments like this tossed around all the time, and I'm curious to hear real world (kind of) examples showing why MFR is better. would you humor me to give an example of what you are saying...

    Was ethanol nerfed?

    Now THERE is a straw man. I never said their opinion reflected all players. My argument is that harder play is not a niche - a statement red boss can't back up at all either by the way. If forge craft is not a change in reaction to what they hear in the community it's something that will...

    Where is the straw man? What ad hominem? I didn't attack you at all.

    Was ethanol nerfed?

    Id argue with the changes to forge craft 3, possibly those older mods aren't niche at all. No computercraft, no TE, no ender storage. The web page I saw even called it "hard". Kinda funny that the idea of the game being hard is laughed at here but apparently the people on forge craft think it...

    Was ethanol nerfed?

    It seems the mod devs and community are split, some want things more manual and nerfed, others like things more automatic and buffed. BC, forestry, railcraft, SC2, IC2 all seem to be going the nerf route, MFR, TE, Dartcraft, are doing the buff route. Do i dare say the older mods are moving...

    If you lose your thaumonomicon in Thaumcraft3, do you hvae to start reseaching everything all over?

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Well now its working. The reaction requires 32,000 Eu/t... this means 16 plasma generators. I just made more injectors and put injectors in every available spot. I had 21K helium plasma cells stored up to turn my tungsten into iridium. Maybe i over did it, but i didnt think MFSUs would work... i...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    ANyone done the iridium reaction in a gregtech fusion reactor? I have 16 plasma generators set up to 16 energy injectors, to give the 32K eu/t needed to keep the reaction going... but the computer just shows a constant, slow loss of power... then it gets down to nothing, and the reaction stops...

    FTB - It´s to easy, how to make it hard?

    Im a fan of gregtech but have not played the newest versions. If it works the way you say, then Id have to agree with others that he has gone too far. I like explosions... when i screw up. Random explosions... not so fun. 8 Hand tools? yeah sounds excessive.

    Forgecraft 3 Question (not asking to join btw!)

    Someone on Reddit told me Forestry is set to 'normal' and not 'easy' which is the default. harder to breed bees and trees apparently? I didn't know forestry had different difficulty modes.

    FTB - It´s to easy, how to make it hard?

    Id like to see machines break down and require some sort of repair kit to get working again, something that is consumed so it uses up resources.

    Forgecraft 3 Question (not asking to join btw!)

    So this is the mods direwolf will be playing? Pretty interesting that there is no computercraft in it. No mining well rigs etc. is there a way to get a quick overview of what config changes they made?

    FTB - It´s to easy, how to make it hard?

    This is a good point, probably better to remove EE3. i think the problem is when you start making tesseracts a stack at a time, it gets a little crazy. Using them within your base is when things get a little ridiculous, iMO. But also, moving items around without teleporting is bad for...

    FTB - It´s to easy, how to make it hard?

    Actually if you go to other sites like reddit an read comments there, it is the opposite of this forum. Lots of people talk about OP mods and want harder mods. Don't claim to speak for everyone, if people weren't asking for harder mods there wouldn't be so much arguing on this forum. Notice...

    http://www.reddit.com/r/feedthebeast/comments/1nxozh/with_the_discussions_of_x_mod_is_or_isnt/ Ok, an argument with no name calling. This quote above was a post on reddit about power creep with these mods. This comment/quote is basically what is going on here. People want it quickly, so...
