I used single use batteries to fill the bronze jackhammer. I guess it is faster than the stone pickaxe, but still takes way longer to break stone than it would with any normal pickaxe with the harder stone option off. I thought the whole purpose of having the jackhammers was to get past the long...

Thanks ! I have another qustion now, I managed to make a Bronze Jackhammer, but it still doesnt seem to be getting through stone very fast at all (I have harder stone on in GT config) is there a way to modify block break speeds for certain tools or am I doin something wrong ?

I just got my first few bronze machines and I am trying to set up the boiler. I have some buildcraft liquid pipes pumping in water to the small coal boiler from the right, and steam going out the top to another BC pipe to some tanks for storage, but after I got it going, it started trying to...

I was hoping to either find (or start) a thread like Lets See Some Bases, with lots of pics. Good for getting ideas and inspiration, except for this one, maybe focus more on the insides too. I want some new ideas and I really like seeing how everyone else sets stuff up. It would just be cool to...

Holy %$3@ just...wow...effing wow...This looks amazing !

I saw some WIP mods that I would really like to try when they are finished. One is called Steampunkery. The other is Magitech. Both look like they will be awesome. I think if you do a pack like this right, it will be fun

I wish I could code, i wanted to uuse gregtechs coal/charcoal dusts to be what drops from ores or what you get from cooking logs so that you had to put them together to actually get coal/char making it more expensive/harder to get...

Well the server is private, its just my 3 of my friends, one of whom runs it off her computer. If it weren't for that Im sure she'd let others join. BUT that being said, we intend to start a real server in the near future. We plan to rent one from a pro site and have the same mods/play style...

Thanks guys. All your tips have helped. Playing this way is definitely a new challenge, but its also like a whole new game, we are really enjoying it so far. I wasn't aware you can prospect with Hammers, so that is helping. Donkeys and wooden rails are pretty useful now, which is one thing we...

I posted a thread for ideas to make a harcore server a few weeks ago. A few friends and I did managed to do just that. But now that we have started, we are realizing that we may have made things too hard maybe. I was hoping someone who has tangled with GregTech's hard mode before could give me...

The idea that you can just make anything you want and alter everything around you is at the core of the vanilla game, then you can take that and turn it into any kind of game you want, but WITH the ability to still change any and everything around you. I think that is amazing. I like playing...

I have no idea if I CAN quit. I haven't wanted to yet, so just never tried. Honestly, when I get my new comp, if I could just play Minecraft all day long, I think I would. Of course, I say that now...Really though, I really enjoy it, and I think it's pretty cool I can still enjoy something that...

I've just never seen a single game that could be an FPS shooter one minute but an economic strategy sim the next. Not to mention a bazillion other things. it literally is infinite I think. Like a few zillion games in one. No wonder we're all addicted to it. I eat sleep and breathe Minecraft...

So...I was attempting to explain Minecraft to a friend who has never played it, even though I was unaware sucha person existed until now. (I know sucha isn't a real word, bugger off) And I found myself trying to say things like "It doesn't even matter WHAT kind of games you like normally, you...

I have been told alot that building your own system is cheaper and always gives you a better machine. Before I commit to that idea though, I wanted to ask exactly what that process involves as I have never done it. I am guessing I order all the parts and just put them where they go in the...

Am I the only one who cant stand having WAILA on ALL the time ? I like having it, and of course it is very useful when you have a ton of mods. But I see that most LPers have it on ALL the time, and I assume the majority of people must too. I on the other hand, have it OFF until I need it. And...

Hey, what does pepper spray do ?

You know, since my laptop died, I have realized that navigating the internet in search of a gaming computer is a fools errand. At least in the sense that you will NOT end up fully satisfied no matter what. I have learned alot, but I will never be able to get the absolute best deal, or even...

I did notice that macs are more expensive but in general are kind of nicer. I was also told that I need 64 bit windows and 64 bit java for it if I want to use more than 1gb of RAM, BUT with a Mac, it didnt matter (???) or something. Is that true ? I wanted to get a really good quad core 8gb ram...

The white stone from Random Things was more of what I was thinking. Drinking a potion takes too long. And with tons of new mobs and regen turned off, I was just wanting something to fill in the gap between spawning WITH ONLY FOUR HEARTS, and the point where you can make potions. Not to mention...
