    GregTech Has Gone Too far

    Seriously, why do people even still bother with solars that aren't the ultra OP ones? An decent sized MFR tree farm chopping 2x2 trees will provide enough wood for hundreds of generators, or (even better) dozens of 36hp boilers which, along with power converters, can create far more eu than you...

    Is there a machine in FTB 1.5.2 with GT that farms trees?

    True. But even without those, you're still producing tons of fuel for boilers with little cost. Yes, I have noticed efficiency>fun for most people.

    Massive ressource income?

    Why would we be bored in 1.6 if all we do is hoard resources? For pure speed, a galgadorian drill wins hands down. It can mine 1 block per tick and is fairly easy to fully automate (no need to move it around when its done since it goes forever). Sure, the 191 diamonds is a lot, but with a...

    Is there a machine in FTB 1.5.2 with GT that farms trees?

    A few worlds ago, I had a 25x25 farm that farmed EBXL redwood trees, with a bunch of lilypads of fertility underneath it. The amount of wood was sufficient to keep about 25 36hp boilers going (probably more actually, though that particular world was on my laptop, meaning it was rather laggy. It...

    About Xeno's potions...

    How do you use them? I assume you drink them like the vanilla potions, but holding the right mouse button does nothing.

    Steam production

    Contrary to popular belief neither planks nor sawmills have been nerfed, this was confirmed by KL himself in a thread from a while ago. I don't know for sure if a single smallest multifarm can power a 36hp boiler, though I'd imagine it probably can. Be sure to build up a large supply of planks...

    I'm pretty sure thats not his 'old' mindset, he'll always be a turtle addict. As for tree farming, MFR farms are outrageously good.

    Greg's done it again.

    Well, yeah. I understand why you would not like Greg or his tech, which is fine. I wasn't trying to insult you or anything, I just thought you overreacted a bit with your post.

    Weird xytank glitch

    I'm using the 1.4.7 ultimate pack, version 1.1.2.

    Weird xytank glitch

    Well, the glitch has gone now, but when it was still here the oil was invisible from every angle, including when it was wholly on the screen.

    Greg could just make his sawmill give 8 planks per log, though it seems a bit much. What else can he do though?

    Weird xytank glitch

    Anyone else seen this before? I never have. I wonder if this also affects RC tanks.

    Greg's done it again.

    Maybe someone should make a Greg addon which does exactly this, making things realistic. Could be fun, you never know ;) While Greg needs to give people a reason to use his sawmill, it needs to be a reason that doesn't also apply to the TE sawmill o_O By the way Poppy, I think this is the...

    Greg's done it again.

    Actually, when you make a fuss over essentially nothing (all its doing is making the crafting of iron tools more realistic with only a slightly increased cost), you're the childish one.

    Tungsten

    Tungsten plates can be used in manufacturing advanced alloys. Using them along with aluminium plates gives 6 mixed metal ingots per tungsten. You also use them to make plasma generators if you're squashing small atoms together to make bigger ones for energy production.

    Boiler trouble

    Goddammit, I feel like an idiot now. Why couldn't PowerCrystals have made them look less similar? Thanks I guess.

    Boiler trouble

    1 I don't get what you mean by powered/unpowered conduits. 2 It doesn't make any difference with power converters which colour you use - the first boiler is using the blue connector and works fine. I tried changing it to orange on the second boiler and that didn't make any difference.

    Boiler trouble

    Currently I have 2 36hp boilers running on fuel. The first one (the one on the left) is running fine, but the second one isn't producing any power. I'm using power converters to turn the steam into MJ more cheaply than a bunch of engines, but it says that the output is limited, even though its...

    What do you do, when your server is down

    Nothing. I don't have a server to call home :( (I wouldn't play well on a server anyway).
