    FTB Unhinged or Unleashed?

    Ender pouch + corresponding chest hooked up to home sorting system (Doesn't everyone use them these days)? As Santa said, you could always add GT to the unleashed pack. Though to be honest, its more trouble than its probably worth. I like GT but for me adding it to the unleashed pack is an...

    Whats Better?

    Well, I just found something interesting. A manyullyn battleaxe with paper rod + binding, electric + maxed nether quartz is listed as doing 9.5 hearts of damage, yet damage indicators says it can do 10.5 hearts. Sure enough, it can 1-shot skeletons, spiders and creepers (not zombies though...

    How to add GT to FTBUnleashed?

    Well now that I think about it, GT only adds a bunch of machines to do stuff more efficiently. I'll miss the plutonium/thorium, grinder and distillation tower, but I suppose I can make do. I guess by 'something similar', I mean a mod that adds a bunch of machines in a similar vein to GT...

    How to add GT to FTBUnleashed?

    Oh. Maybe this won't be as simple as I anticipated. Oh well. Looks like i'll have to learn to live without plutonium. At least I won't have to trawl through the bloody configs anymore. EDIT: Since i'm going without GT, are there any mods that do something similar (preferably without the...

    How to add GT to FTBUnleashed?

    I was about to start using FTBUnleashed since it has a bunch of cool mods until I noticed there's no GT. This is a major bummer for me. Is there an easy way to add it? Since i'm not computer savvy enough to follow written instructions (unless its written in a way simple enough for 3 year olds to...

    Whats Better?

    Unless it got updated recently, both of these are wrong. Nanpo saber does 10 hearts of damage, versus 7-10.5 for a sharpness IV diamond sword. A nano saber also has infinite durability since it consumes EU (I wish it had a bigger internal storage though). It also doesn't set enemies on fire. A...

    I heard you liked Iridium

    Nope. These ones only generate 1 eu/t. (If they really contained that much iridium the roof would collapse from the weight).

    Would you like to see a Modded Super Hostile Map?

    I have thought about how good of an idea this is on multiple occasions, though I've never actioned on it because A: I have absolutely no idea how to make a map and B: IC2 is my favourite mod. Quantum armour might make it slightly easy. A good mod for this might be Xeno's reliquary: a bunch of...

    Cables Energy Loss?

    This. The loss is rounded up, not down, meaning you wouldn't lose any eu at all until 40 blocks have passed. This means you can get rid of any luss by placing a transformer every 39 blocks; this resets the loss 'counter' and you lose nothing (it also used to happen with mixed wire types, though...

    Periodic videos make some great chemistry vids - nice to see there's one on everyone's favourite metal :)

    Steam Engine help.

    An easier solution would be to simply place the engines directly next to the boiler. Then there's no limit to the amount of steam that can flow between them.

    Help with thermals generators

    Depends. If fps lag isn't an issue then a BC pump is better. But if you want to avoid fps lag then use the advanced pump (it eliminates flowing lava blocks, getting rid of most of the related fps lag). By the way its added by gregtech not IC2 ;)

    Help with thermals generators

    Depends on what version you're using. In 1.4.7 they cause chunk resets when used with chunk loaders. Tesseracts don't have this issue.

    Help with ghast spawner

    The permanent one. Isn't that the one you're supposed to use? EDIT: Weird. I just gave it some mob essence and it worked. I thought you didn't need it in this version?

    More efficient/completely safe nuclear reactor setups?

    It also has hardly any running costs (well, with an industrial grinder anyway. Then thorium is as cheap as chips).

    Help with ghast spawner

    So i'm trying to spawn ghasts with an MFR spawner so I can make the elusive galgadorian drill. I've got it powered up and everything but it doesn't spawn anything. What gives? Before you ask, yes i've given them enough room and no, I don't need mob essence (still in 1.4.7).

    Gregtech Rubies

    Maybe Greg anticipated people putting them in eternal storm mystcraft ages. If you want it in the overworld, just fire 2 storm shots from the xeno's handgun to make a thunderstorm.

    Gregtech Rubies

    This is correct - a GT lightning rod doesn't get 'struck' by lightning, it just has a random chance of producing energy during a thunderstorm (or even during rain if its really tall). As for gathering chrome, when you have a quarry, 1800 redstone isn't really a lot. Though you may prefer to...

    In which ED has Less Metal Than Before When ED had More Metal than ED has Now

    Mutator Configs?

    Technically you only need 1 mutator if you use nether stars, but they're annoying to gather in large quantities. You need 2 mutators with uranium (a waste IMO), and 3 mutators with ender eyes. Just remember: if bee nerfs get you down, just use the imprinter.
