    Is it possible to use new Vanilla launcher for FTB (1.5.2)?

    You can create a new profile and go into the settings. As Minecraft version select the Forge version you installed, any Java runtime parameters you need and pick the directory you want. Launch MC one time and it will create the directory with the Config and Mods folders in it. (Pre 1.6 it will...

    Mystcraft world quarries and power?

    Dense Ores makes a huge difference in how many (vanilla) resources you get from your quarry. You can add some instabilities yourself to avoid things like meteors, decay or crumble. My standard mining age: Extreme Hills, Flat, Dense Ores, 3x Charged, 3x Scorched. The quarry is always set up...

    Cross dimension item transport

    EnderIO The Dimensional Transceiver can transport energy or liquids. There are config settings, what energy loss you want (percent reduction like TE or a fixed cost per Transceiver node or none at all). Transferring liquids costs energy per bucket, also adjustable in the config. Or you can...

    How best to get Ender Pearls in 1.6 ?

    The challenge is to get the first couple pearls to get into the End. After that you are right, you can easily farm them as much as you want.

    What's your 1.6 modlist?

    Pretty much the FTB Unleashed pack. Not included: Thaumcraft, Dartcraft, Thermal Expansion (obviously), Logistic Pipes, Power Converters, some smaller mods Added: Mekanism, Atomic Science, EnderIO, Project:Red Lots of fun and also looks really stable, it hasn't crashed in ages.

    Thermal Expansion Status

    FTB Unleashed loads what, around 100 mods? Can you list please 5 core mods, that don't have at least a stable Dev version for testing available? I guess, it's just irritating to read something like "there is 0 replacement for conduits and energy cells", when the last pages were listing...

    Thermal Expansion Status

    1. Install Minecraft 1.6.2/1.6.4 2. Add the mods that are listed here as alternatives 3. Test the builds that you are concerned about 4. If it doesn't work, try to find another solution with the mods you have 5. AFTER that, if it still doesn't work, start complaining

    (Mekanism) Teach me the basics?

    The most basic energy source is a vanilla furnace, connected with a cable to your Mekanism machines. If you found some Osmium and Gold already, you can skip it and build a Wind Mill first. Reservoir->Electrolytic Separator->Hydrogen Generator is a very effective energy source. The Separator...

    1.7.x Packs Yet!? [Mindcrack/DW20/Ultimate/Lite/Horizons/Monster/Unleashed/Unhinged/Tech/Magic/etc]

    The same modder (Samrg474) who did the unofficial MFR conversion, made also a 1.6.x version of PowerConverters and Power Crystal's Core. https://samrg474.ci.cloudbees.com/job/PowerConverters/ https://samrg474.ci.cloudbees.com/job/PCC/

    FTB Unleashed Mob Spawner

    Extra Utilities' Cursed Earth spawner would also be an option.

    Simple Skelly farm question

    Hypnotized has a really good design for this in his FTB Unleashed series. Fast forward to 20:00mins to see it in action. In a later video he replaced the obsidian pipes for collecting the items with additional Conveyor Belts and an MFR Item Collector.

    Soulshard mod Question

    How far away were the creepers from the soul cage? I tend to build 9x5x9 spawners and if the mobs don't get killed fast enough, then the spawner does slow down.

    Soulshard mod Question

    The spawning algorithm is the same as for the vanilla spawners. It checks a 17x9x17 area centered around the soul cage and won't spawn additional mobs, if there are 6 or more mobs of the same type are already in this area. If you can't kill them fast enough, then the easiest workaround is...

    Missing items!

    No problem. :) But since you are already looking at the configs: The 1.5.2 version added a lot of @#$#4 stuff, that you might not want if you are used to 1.4.7 GregTech. Maybe take a look through the configs and disable things like "WoodNeedsSaw" (or something in these lines), the decreased...

    Missing items!

    Yes. I think the file name was gregtechmod311.zip and it needs to be copied from the Unhinged\Mods into the Unleashed\Mods folder. If you click then the "Edit " button in the FTB launcher, you should see gregtech on the left side as one of the active mods.

    Thermal Expansion Status

    True. But the reason for this is most likely, that everybody looks differently at these mods. RP2 for me was an elegant way to do all the redstone controls and the redstone logic. And then to make everything pretty by hiding it behind microblocks. You were then probably more into the machines...

    Thermal Expansion Status

    And I completely agree with you. :) But the point is, in today's modding world there is not much left of TE, that can't be part of another "work of beauty". Mekanism offers an amazing lineup of machines, easy to start with but also scalable (at a price) to a point where you can build a...

    Thermal Expansion Status

    Lots of mods have Furnaces and Macerators that work as well or better than the TE version. EnderIO has the Reservoir, that acts as infinite water source. Same functionality as the Aqueous Accumulator. XACT is a small mod that adds an awesome project table. ... And apparently it turns the vanilla...

    Missing items!

    The easiest would probably be to download the FTB Unhinged pack and then copy the gregtech.zip from Unhinged into the Unleashed mod folder. This way you can be sure that there are no issues with the GregTech version or the config settings.

    How to write a stable Mystcraft age?

    Don't forget the Single Biome page. :) Depending on the Mystcraft version you also might want to specify the materials for your world. Especially in 1.5.2 it would generate some goofy stuff otherwise. Savanna Biome / Single Biome / Stone Block / Water Block / Flat / Normal Lighting / yadda
