    can anyone tell me how to Increase my frame rates?

    Can we have some more information? What mod pack are you using? How long have you been playing this world? Is it just that world or any world? Do you play SMP or SSP? Do you have OptiFine installed?

    Question about Chestnut and Walnut Trees.

    @LittleMike (Because I am a forum noob and don't know how to quote) I leave a gap of 4-5 between the trees. Unfortunately I have no idea what the 10% is. I had assumed, probably wrongly, that if a mutated leaf occurs, that there is a 10% chance it will be a purebred mutation. I would be...

    Question about Chestnut and Walnut Trees.

    @LittleMike I should state that I am by no means an expert. I only dabbled in tree breeding initially to explore some vague interest I had, but as a result of my approach I think it made it a LOT easier for me. I made my way to Walnut (which I wanted for seed oil) very quickly. The approach...

    Question about Chestnut and Walnut Trees.

    There is a very useful page here that looks at the different tree traits worth a read: http://ftbwiki.org/Arboriculture And also, if you want spoilers on how to get certain tress as well as a 101 on tree breeding, you can look at this page: http://ftbwiki.org/Tree_Breeding or this one...

    Question about Chestnut and Walnut Trees.

    They can be bonemealed, but it only works on one of the saplings. I seem to remember ie being the northwest one in the 2x2. However, I am far to stupid to work that out, so I just spam bonemeal on all of them one by one untill it grows. ... Beaten by the Doctor

    What do you do, when your server is down

    If my server was down, my first reaction would be to be dissapointed with myself, since I host it locally for a few friends and family. But when I am not playing, which is probably more interesting, what I do depends on how much time I have before the wife starts making household chore...

    How can I safely use combustion engines and redstone energy cells?

    I am hoping that you wont need a wooden pipe to export from REC and you will just be able to connect to gold/diamond etc. Edited because I saw Vovk's post and realised I was an idiot...

    How can I safely use combustion engines and redstone energy cells?

    It looks like when I get round to updating that I will be going back to BC pipes. Thanks for the link, a good read.

    How can I safely use combustion engines and redstone energy cells?

    Apologies, I should have stated, I am currently playing on 1.5.2. I am an optermist, so I am sorta holding out to find out what Eloraam brings to the table and whether or not this will be included i any future packs. (I know there are replacements, I will move on eventually but I think...

    How can I safely use combustion engines and redstone energy cells?

    Unfortunately my work block images but I am looking forward to seeing the design when I get home. I must be making another mistake then if energy conduits dispose of excess energy because mine keep blowing up. Can anyone confirm the amounts on the following: The output of Xycraft Water block...

    How can I safely use combustion engines and redstone energy cells?

    I think the safer assumption is to assume "I" am doing something wrong, my knowledge is limited. I was under the impression that a combustion engine will explode if there is no where for the MJ to go. I don't currently have a single BC pipe, only redstone energy conduits and redstone energy...

    How can I safely use combustion engines and redstone energy cells?

    Thanks both for replying, Morgs, I am not au fait with RS Nor latches and others of their ilk, but i'll do some research to see if I can set one up tonight to see how that works in my setup. Thanks for the tip. Freakscar, unfortunately, as I said, because of the banks of engines being next...

    How can I safely use combustion engines and redstone energy cells?

    Thank you for your quick responce but I have considered these things before. In my current setup, I have a single redstone signal running through the centre of banks of four engines so that one switch can turn them all off. At the front of the engines is the conduit and on the remaining two...

    How can I safely use combustion engines and redstone energy cells?

    Hi all, Apologies if this has been answered before or is obvious to many but my forum searches haven't turned up an answer for me. I luckily found two VERY large oil spawns near my base and subsequentially have a significant amount of fuel available to me, as a result I wanted to try to use...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Hi all, hopefully a quick question... If a Buildcraft gate is touching multiple machines (The same type of machines) does it recognize all of them or just picks one at random? If I give you the scenario it might help explain it better.. g = gate c = combustion engine c cgc c If I set...

    Feed The Beast - Redpower and 1.5.x

    This is an odd statement... your posts suggest otherwise... "Eloraam's inability to continue working on Redpower 2" "she hasn't fixed several glaring issues with Redpower" "What is so dammed difficult about..." "her illogical, reclusive approach to the situation" "The rate of which she updates...

    Hello mate, Just wanted to drop you a note to say I loved your post on The Final Word on Steam Boiler Efficiency, it had some excellent information but most importantly you presented it in a clear and easy to understand format. Now... if I could just get you to post on every area of FTB I am...

    [Ultimate 1.0.2] EE3 minium Stone Recipes Broken?

    I know it is probably a very simple question to most but I have never edited any of the mods in FTB. I would also like to know how to downgrade a single mod.
