    enableWorldGenOreTin=false

    Yes, i did that in the TE config file, previous to generating the world. you can also change it and then create a new mining age.

    Mucking with Ore spawn configs

    What i did is make copper and tin spawn from the bottom of the map (to enable TBMs), and increased the amount proportionately so the "density" is the same, but there is lower. Example: If tin spawned from 20 to 40 (20 blocks) and i change it to 30 blocks (50% increase) i would change the...

    enableWorldGenOreTin=false

    Personally i just changed the configs to make tin and copper a bit more abundant and spawn at lower levels. i feel the default config simply makes tunnel bores useless and forces you to either use a top-down quarry, or a BC quarry/IC2 miner. I like TBM :) The FTB team manually balanced...

    Multiple Quartz Crystal IDs?

    I think theyr part of xycraft and have no use yet. Also, i think they come in different variations depending on either the amount or the orientation they spawn with... i think quarries when they break them preserve one of those pieces of info making them unstackable. I havent tested this...

    When 1.5 comes out..

    While you are correct (clientCPU + serverCPU > oldCPU) the new system allows multi-core computers (practically all computers now) to run the server and the client on different cores, actually improving the performance on most systems.

    How do you break a dimensionally upgraded barrel?

    Blue, how do you connect a relay directly to a voidpipe? Ive always had to use a backwards transposer>air block->obs pipe->void pipe. Even thought of equipping my TBM with a lava source to instanly get rid of the items...

    How do you break a dimensionally upgraded barrel?

    How do you break a dimensionally upgraded barrel without crashing thre server in the process? Im planning on making a barrel-based TBM, with dimensional upgrades for the dirt and cobble, and while i dont care much for the barrels i would like the upgrades back... Is there any way to recover...

    Beekeeping Guide. Yay or nay?

    Hey, just a suggestion: It would be cool if instead of a guide you made a wiki perhaps? Wikis can be edited by whoever you choose, and they have searching capabilities, linking, etc. A guide is a document that explain hows to do things, but your actually giving info about the bees and their...

    Buildcraft quarry efficiency at high speed?

    Hello! The new BC quarry can go really fast if provided with tons of power, i think it can take like 50 or 100MJ/t. my question would be if its efficient while running at those speeds... Imagine i have 2 identical quarries with a full redstone cell each, if i set one cell to emit 10MJ and the...

    What am I missing? (lava pumping station)

    You can place the enderchest right next to the liquid transposer and itll deposit the full cells in the chest automatically.

    Restarting a full Igneous Extruder?

    I think the extruder will periodically check if it can output the cobble to the second machine and do it on its own.

    [MystCraft] Getting stuck in an age

    If your stuck in an age that has the required elements to craft new books and such you can keep random-jumping until you find an age with a fissure.

    Favorite biome

    Hello! My favorite biome in FTB atm is the meadows one. Its a very flat, very green surface with lots of grass, a few trees, and just about everything good i can think of with no annoying hills that need to be flattened. My permanent bases are generally located in a stable perma-day age made...

    Direwolf's or Mindcrack?

    Hello! The main difference (besides a couple differences in mods) is that the mindcrack pack is designed to be the hardest possible modded experience (adds a TON of complexity/difficulty/challenge/tedium via gregtech). DW20 pack is designed to his linking, and includes the mods in the...

    Redpower MJ engine info?

    Hello! Where could i find some info on the new RP MJ engine? Ive heard they regulate their output to the MJ requested by the network, and that they do consume a ton of bluetricity to produce, but i would like additional info. How many MJ are produced connecting an engine to a single solar...

    I think coolant is supposed to be a valid liquid.

    Suggestion for the "mod pack updates" section

    I realize this would be extra load, but it would be awesome if in each "pack updated" post it was included the changelogs (or at least the links to the changelogs) of the mods that have them. For exmaple yesterday/today the DW20 was updated, and about 15 mods where updated to newer versions...
