    Best Biofuel/Ethanol setup for Unleashed?

    500mB is still better than a lot of common saplings.

    Which do you prefer? Unleashed or Unhinged

    One of those packs not only has GregTech, but also has barely any mods that disturb his Gloriousbalance. So I guess the choice is obvious. [edit] Although the inclusion of Dim. Doors in that feels a bit weird to me. Not that I'm complaining, as I love that mod.

    Fun With Unstable Ingots

    You can just turn the light off in Eplus's config, you know.

    Any Point to Strengthened Glass?

    Yes, they can. Just craft 8 around any dye. As for saltpeter, it's supposed to generate everywhere under a few layers of sand on desert biomes.

    Biomes O Plenty = Great but no IC2 Rubber

    Are you playing Unleashed? If so, MFR's rubber can be used for all IC2 recipes, and it's considerably better to farm.

    Best Biofuel/Ethanol setup for Unleashed?

    Feed as many seeds/saplings/crops as you can to a MFR bio-reactor, then send the output to a MFR unifier (you don't even need pipes, just place them side-by-side). Then, extract the ethanol from the unifier. Force saplings from Dartcraft (incoming controversy!) also generate a ton of biomass, if...

    Best fertilizer for MFR?

    You obviously need more cows, and larger sewers. Forestry's fertilizer is a nice option if you hate cows because of how much of it you can get from a single stack of apatite.

    Dartcraft, why even?

    Know why macerators/pulverizers exist in mods and not in vanilla? Because it's a completely different game. Modded MC usually needs a considerable higher amount of metals in order to do anything, and that's why IC2 started the trend. Really, IC2 alone uses so much iron it'd be rather tedious if...

    Best Non-lava power source for FTB pack Unleashed

    There aren't really that many options in IC2, which makes me wonder why such a popular mod hasn't ever gotten a popular "more engines" sub mod or something. GT doesn't count. The best option in my opinion is MFR Biofuel. Make a 9x9 MFR farm with wheat, cocoa, nether wart, any tree (Natura's...

    Upgrade Core's - Dartcraft.

    Did. That's no longer the case as of version 0.1.13.

    Dartcraft, why even?

    In the end, I guess it all boils down to "you're wasting less time on these tasks. You shouldn't be allowed to do that"

    Dartcraft, why even?

    I still believe that nobody knows more about the balance of a mod than their creator. All these "OP" things about Dartcraft are contained in itself and have little to no relation to any other mod, or the fact that it's present in such a huge pack. Take the enchantment system you mentioned, for...

    Dartcraft, why even?

    What else are you going to do, then? Keep complaining until the author decides his ideas are wrong, yours are right, and removes everything that makes his mod interesting? Seeing how much cross-mod interaction Dartcraft has, it's clear that it was made with having multiple mods in mind, so...

    Lepidopterology, Is this gonna be another Extra Bees-like mod?

    Hopefully not until they get some use or it becomes clear what they're useful for. Apparently they drop pollen on the ground, crowd up near rivers in enormous clusters, suffocate in walls, and that's it.

    Dartcraft, why even?

    Once again: you can ignore all of those. If you feel they're way too easy, use another option. I made a comparison with GregTech earlier because Dartcraft doesn't force a billion "hard mode" recipes on you, instead it gives you the option to go for an easier (and subjectively more fun) route...

    Dartcraft, why even?

    And those are all things that make the mod unique and loved by its fans. If you strip it of everything new it offers, it's going to just end up a generic mod with overpriced things nobody will bother making. What should be done here, instead of nerfing everything and their mothers, is adding the...

    Dartcraft, why even?

    Because it's a good mod and it's fun. Why else? The difference between the "OP" Dartcraft and the "manly mod for manly people such as me" GregTech is that one of them doesn't force itself down your throat.

    What is/were the reason's people don't like xycraft?

    If any of you ever used Steve's Carts for mining, you would have another reason to hate those crystals. Also, if my previous post wasn't clear enough: those crystals render ALL the time, apparently in all loaded chunks (or on all visible chunks, at leaast), no matter how deep they're hidden...

    About Dartcraft.

    If cheats are on, just type /dartcraftishard. Seriously. Another good cheat is /ineedatrunkfullofdartcraftjunk, which will give you everything from that mod so you can experiment all you want. All the cheats can be found on the MCF thread posted above. [edit] ah, misread the topic. Oops...

    What is/were the reason's people don't like xycraft?

    The crystals. If you're on a 1.4.7 pack, just make yourself a quick x-ray system (TNT/glowstone through the head) and you'll see why. There's also how they damage everything they touch, so tough luck if you mined a diamond that just happened to be right above one of them! At least it looks like...
