    Rising Resonance Let's Play (Resonant Rise Modpack)

    For the third episode the sound was pretty low :X If you put placeable blocks in the hotbar slot to the right of your Tinker's Construct pickaxe (such as cobble or torches) you can right click while holding the pickaxe to place them. This should help you a bit while mining since you won't...

    Fast smelting without IC2?

    If you use Mekanism there are smeltery blocks that can smelt 3, 5, and 7 blocks at a time respectively and can be upgraded for speed increases.

    Run a HP boiler for Hours or even days with 0 automation of fueling!!

    One, I didn't create it, two I never said it was horribly complex, but for those that might be unfamiliar with the systems they might take a while to set it up properly so they don't get backed up or anything. You do have the right solution if I am reading how you have it correctly though...

    Run a HP boiler for Hours or even days with 0 automation of fueling!!

    That's one way of doing it but if not set up properly you'll end up with tons of planks being burned and none available for crafting. Yes, there are ways to accept X amount of planks into your system and then burn the rest, I'm just stating if you don't do it right you'll find yourself short on...

    Mod Pack Update

    And sadly no matter how much you say and emphasize it people still don't know how to read. Hopefully 0.5's download won't encounter the same problems as .3 and .4, but other than that I wanna see what all has been fixed and added, as well as how stable its becoming.

    Pollution Mod -- Modders Needed!

    Except a lot of people use steam boilers and last I checked nuclear waste was a pollutant.

    Pollution Mod -- Modders Needed!

    Before the mention of the other stuff I was actually gonna put forward air filters myself. In Galacticraft there's a system where you can plant trees on other planets so you can extract oxygen from them. The pollution and ventilation system could work similar in that you could use the vents to...

    Gold Conductive Pipes Exploding Problem

    How I read it when energy gets put into the framework it has a 5% loss, any energy transferred within the network is lossless (so no energy loss from going conduit > energy cell > conduit), and it's not clarified if there will be loss when it exits the framework system (such as conduits >...

    Small mods to accompany Millenaire

    To add on to Tinker's Construct, yes it does double ore, and you can directly make blocks of metal instead of just ingots if you're smelting a lot at once. The lava usage isn't horrible, but I do recommend having a large source to work with. A single lava tank holds 4 buckets of lava (I think...

    Run a HP boiler for Hours or even days with 0 automation of fueling!!

    If turtle can use the blocks as fuel that would make it pretty darn useful as well tbh. There are systems where the blocks could help save energy and be more server friendly than the alternatives as well. Longer lasting fuel doesn't need to be replaced as often, thus lowering how many times it...

    The Ultimate Tinkers Construct Tools

    Rapier was nerfed a bit to be in line with other weapons. It also ignores enemy armor. It can't do massive damage as well as ignore armor otherwise people would only use it and nothing else.

    The Ultimate Tinkers Construct Tools

    For this to work put the block you want to place to the right of the pick on the hotbar. It seems to work with any placeable block (only tried torches and cobble after stumbling upon this function).

    FTB Mod Discussion: Greg-Tech

    Oh I know about that recipe and chose to ignore it due to how expensive it is, as you have said. Convenience can only be so expensive before people resort to not nearly as costly inconvenient things. Also, I too have those same fears regarding the matches :X Except needing the blast furnace...

    Methane still a good boiler fuel?

    Guessing you mean Redwood from EBXL, cause in the beta Natura's massive redwoods can't be farmed with MFR yet. Anyway, why an 11x11? I've found that larger farms tend to be slower due to how MFR's harvester seeks blocks to harvest.

    FTB Mod Discussion: Greg-Tech

    That was actually my main complaint. Using lava and wood it took me 30 minutes to light a nether portal (cause I wasn't sure how to get it working right and the tutorial vids conflicted with each other -_-). Making the flint and steel change without the alternative is like shooting a horse...

    Run a HP boiler for Hours or even days with 0 automation of fueling!!

    There are several questions that arise from your advert. How many single pieces of an item are compressed into a single block? How many IDs are taken by the mod? Are all of the blocks equivalent to the power produced by the parts used to create them? Will this be updated for all of the mod packs...

    FTB Mod Discussion: Greg-Tech

    Greg said he was planning on adding one time use matches so you don't need steel to go to the Nether, villagers should still be able to trade flint and steel, steel ingots can be gotten from chests, Ars Magica has spells to ignite nether portals, if you get those desert flowers (I believe...

    Why is my quarry not working?

    Guessing mining turtles. One thing to note is you should probably have cleared the trees and whatnot before setting down the quarry as it'll spend time and energy to clear blocks that it will just destroy rather than harvest.

    Quarry Sorting

    Another side-note, in the 1.5.2 packs extra utilities adds new cobblestone storage blocks that can get massive. You can do normal cobble in a 3x3, then do the output in another 3x3, etc. up to a point where you have 43,046,721 cobble compressed into a single block. With that mod I think...

    Mod Pack Update

    If they don't show up as a material to make tools then they most likely cannot be made in TConstruct's smelter. Steel isn't actually in the mod yet is supported, so that most likely means silver and lead aren't meant to be supported and let's be realistic - silver and lead are both very soft...
