    Best way to produce seeds

    What kind of seeds? If you want just normal seeds, using a deployer/block breaker system that automatically plants seeds, bonemeals, and then harvests over a single block of tilled soil can get you a lot quickly and basically for free. What are you going to do with the seeds? If you're using...

    Quarry vs. hand digging

    I assume that by tunnel bores, he means RP2 frame bores. I can't imagine anyone using tunnel bores for mining.

    Quarry vs. hand digging

    I've never actually crafted a quarry before; caving is just too fun. I also don't like the giant holes left by quarrys.

    Gregtech Appreciation Thread

    Is the plate bending machine recipe not just four pistons, two compressors, two circuits, and a conveyor module? Was it recently changed? I don't think even Greg would make an item that is literally impossible to craft.

    I don't think the plate bending machine requires aluminum plates.

    I am also grateful for the renewable Forestry fertilizer recipe added by Gregtech that lets run my multifarms off enderpearls and water.

    Remember that boring old nether?

    I like my nether nice and desolate thank you very much. Although, nether biomes for variations of desolate would be nice.

    Gregtech Appreciation Thread

    Hey, I personally wouldn't use them, but maybe someone just really likes MJ and doesn't use Power Converters. Could you help go over some of the other points in my post? I think they are fair but I'm not really sure what the consensus is. I made this thread in response to that other thread...

    Gregtech Appreciation Thread

    50% of this forum seems to be hate about Gregtech, so I decided I would create a little thread to outline the things that I like about that under appreciated mod. First of all, I have to say that the industrial grinder is one of my favorite things in any mod. It makes lots of pretty dust for...

    How to do anything with Thorium Dust?

    The OP was asking how to create thorium ingots and in turn, cells.

    How to do anything with Thorium Dust?

    In NEI, if you press "U" while hovering over an item, it will show you all the recipes that use that item. If you hover over an item and press "R", it will show you the recipe for that item.

    That's not a Gregtech nerf, take a look at the extra bees wiki.

    I just realized that with TF installed, you can uncraft slimeballs for propolis and string for silk wisps.

    What mods add Diamond Nuggets and Dense Bronze Plate?

    Do you mean dense copper plate? If so, that's added by industrialcraft 2

    Renewable Forestry Fertilizer

    I'm confused, the OP's idea has nothing to do with industrialcraft fertilizer. He is proposing to use two potassium cells + two nitrogen cells + three compressed air cells for 20 saltpeter dust recipe to get infinite saltpeter, and then using the saltpeter + 2 dirt + 2 sand recipe for infinite...

    I Want All the Liquids!

    So, whenever I start a new map, I like to set a goal for myself to collect large amounts of random pretty things. In the past, I've collected dusts, nuggets, and honeycombs. I've recently started a new world and I've decided that I would fill iron tanks with every single fluid in the Mindcrack...

    You need to use wooden conductive pipes to remove MJ from engines. You seem to be fairly mid-late game so I'd suggest using steam power. I'd also recommend using redstone energy conduits instead of conductive pipes, if you can spare the resources.

    It'd help to know what your resource and energy capabilites currently are, as well as any regulations on your server that might interfere with things, primarily nether lava pumping. Steam engines do not overheat and a steam boiler fairly easy to obtain, but keeping it constantly fueled will...

    The fastest way to fill a redstone energy cell is by using engines that produce the most MJ per tick. :p Bluelectric engines have the highest potential MJ per tick of 32 but they consume a rediculous amout of bluetricity. Electrical engines give off 2 MJ per tick but can be upgraded to...
