    Draining partial ingots.

    Thats my case too. I wish blank casts could be resmelted (even at a loss!) Whats special with cobalt compared to iron? (ive not used any of the special ores yet) Just in case, to make a pick head cast: 1) make a STONE pick head in the part crafter 2) place stone pick head in the casting...

    accidentally "upgrading" a machine with refined iron plates...

    Thank you! What are they used for? I mean, the texture changed, but the machine is not exactly "hidden"...

    Draining partial ingots.

    Well, ingame documentation is good, but i'd rather have a complete wiki than incomplete ingame books (BTW, i wish the books where just one, i ALWAYS open the wrong one lol)

    Draining partial ingots.

    I found the mod completely awesome, but really needs documentation. For example its not explained how to get casts. I wasted a lot of metal crafting blank casts because i didnt even thought of placing a stone piece in the table, it was mentioned nowhere... And the casts cant even be smelted...

    accidentally "upgrading" a machine with refined iron plates...

    I accidentally right-clicked a machine with a refined iron plate, its texture changed and now i cant open the machine from the plated side... What is this used for? Is there any way to remove this "upgrade"? Tried wrenching the machine and the faces and nothing happened. Im using the 1.5.2...

    ore distribution in 1.5.2 beta pack w/greg

    yeah, shortly after my second post i found out about the hammer and now in rather fine :) Its an awesome tool, but i still havent mastered the art of combining materials to best advantage (i made my hammer first all-stone and then all-iron) The slime rod would have added durability to it...

    ore distribution in 1.5.2 beta pack w/greg

    Heya! Ive been mining in the beta pack w/greg for like a couple hours now, at level 11 since im in need of diamonds. Ive not been able to find a single one, and ive noticed very few redston, almost no gold, etc. Has the ore distribution changed for this pack? im using the recommended version.

    Limit eu/t usage

    a batbox -> power converter -> quarry will give around 12MJ (not sure on the exact conversion rate). an LV transformer will give around 4 times that (so will an MFE tho) wich is around the exact amount a quarry should need to run full power i think.

    Latest 1.6 IC2 Changes indicated IC2 Miner is becoming a better option.

    Is the miner properly configured in FTB to grab all valuables? Or does it leave behind other mod's good stuff like thaumcraft shards or greg ores?

    Portal Guns

    Are you guys sure the moon portal will eat worlds? I always thought it had a radious of effect for that reason. Zisteau used it to make a huge "rough looking" space underground for his base in mindcrack.

    Discovery-> Automating scented panelling with AE (easy!)

    That would mean processing <= production, which is a big no-no for me :)

    Discovery-> Automating scented panelling with AE (easy!)

    In that case a material will be replaced in the slot as soon as it runs out. If you run out of pollen for example the slot will be filled with wax or something and the system will get stuck.

    Discovery-> Automating scented panelling with AE (easy!)

    All my base is chunkloaded tho (every single piece of cable). You mean crafting operations dont have a timeout? Also, shouldnt the network be able to craft more than 1 thing at a time if it has more than 1 crafting CPU? (i have 2 atm)

    Discovery-> Automating scented panelling with AE (easy!)

    The issue for me was that the export bus always filled the carpenter with wax, and didnt input the materials in the proper proportion. After having that system running for a night ive found that if you dont have the resources for a full craft itll still input the items it does have, and then...

    Surplus Energy

    Imput all your spare energy into oil fabricators or similar and store the liquid in wax capsules in your AE network for when the world order collapses.

    Discovery-> Automating scented panelling with AE (easy!)

    Heya! Last like 5 iterations of Ultimate ive been using interfaces with redpower sorting machines to input proper proportions into the carpenter in order to craft scented panelling. Today i tried something different and it turned out well so i thought i would share: 1) Place an interface...

    Managing liquids with AE

    My idea is to use AE for everything, like putting the cells in the boilers and probably use a xytank to easily fill the capsules (or maybe a liquid transposer). The central location for the tank can be avoided with tesseracts, but i still kinda hate having a huge colored cube just outside my...
