    Looks like we have a replacement for Xycraft Fabricators

    I don't really like using that and instead just make lots of picks. Lots of upgraded picks -> lots of broken picks -> lots of extra force shards -> lots of extra picks -> lots of experience -> level 7 tome in not much time. Adding to that, once you get to level 6 for sturdy, your tools will...

    Gregtech & the omniwrench

    ...Can the GraviGun pick up Greg's machines?

    Gregtech & the omniwrench

    Balancing those mods "by default" that way would make them quite unbalanced, actually -- they're balanced for vanilla, most of the time. It should be your job to get things working the way you want if you have a billion mods installed, which is why config files are an important part of mod...

    Gregtech & the omniwrench

    I just wonder who thought that having a 30% chance of losing your machines when trying to dismantle them was a good thing. Thankfully no other (popular) mod has that "feature". GT doesn't count. Explosionsexplosions

    Automated tree farms for BoP trees?

    Natura trees (like the ones you mentioned) are already working with MFR planters if you have the latest versions of both mods. And oh god the sapling rate is insane. Hello Biorreactor

    MPS Support Thread

    At least now the axe module checks if things around the blocks it breaks are actually trees before destroying them. Or so the changelog at the Jenkins says.

    Buildings made of purely Xycraft decorative blocks?

    It's always party time when you live in a Xycraft house.

    Doesn't EE3 add the Minium Shard drop to every hostile mob, though? Which is hardcoded to never drop if a turtle does the killing job? If that's possible, I don't see how it wouldn't be possible for the same to happen to those bags. Wrong, they are only that strong if you have bees producing...

    Remember that boring old nether?

    As of a somewhat recent NO version, mining Nether ores with a Silk Touch pick prevents them from exploding. Pigs still get angry, though... and I just realized you didn't say anything about explosions. Oops. Anyway, ranged mining (as in IC2's mining Laser/TC3's Wand fo Excavation) also seem to...

    Remember that boring old nether?

    Looks like the next BoP version will have Nether additions as well. Doesn't look like it's too compatible with Natura's Nether stuff, though, but he says that he'll talk to mDiyo about it.

    A lot of oil spawned in my world.

    Didn't you check the changelog for BuldCraft 3.6.0? That's intended. Some sort of oil biome. Draining as much oil as you can and building a base where the (intersected) oil spawns were seems fun.

    Fast smelting without IC2?

    Well, having all powered furnaces in the world isn't going to help much when I need to smelt exactly 2 pieces of cobblestone instantly because I'm in a hurry, for whatever reason. I do see how having more things is more efficient in the long run or in the case of automation, though. As for...

    [FTB Ultimate] Centrifuge Extractor - How fast is it? What is M/S exactly?

    The numbers in the Advanced Machine GUIs are just arbitrary values to indicate how fast things will be processed. All you need to know is that when they aren't going up anymore (if you have a redstone signal applied to them) they're at maximum efficiency, which can then be overclocked by...

    Dartcraft

    I've been in love with this mod ever since I found it thanks to DW20, but I guess it would be better if it wasn't added to FTB because the "OH MY GOD WHERE'S MY BALANCE" people would get mad. In italics. It's amazingly fun, though.

    Fast smelting without IC2?

    It's about as fast as a normal furnace, the only difference being that it smelts 9 items at once (and plays this steamy sound).

    Fast smelting without IC2?

    Is there any other modded way to smelt items as fast as possible without using an Induction/overclocked Electric Furnace? The only other option I can think about at the moment is the Infernal Furnace from TC3, as long as it has three Arcane Bellows.

    The Ultimate Tinkers Construct Tools

    Rapier's strength lies in how fast you can attack with it. Just mash that mouse button and you'll see. That said, I'm more fond of the bigger numbers that come from a longsword. And even fonder of the enormous numbers that come out of a Force Sword with 5 bat claws.

    The Ultimate Tinkers Construct Tools

    Manyulylyuynylun everything, paper binding is about the best you can get. Other good options are Cobalt for speed, or an Obsidian binding for a slight increase in durability. I find stonebound kind of useless if you want to have a durable pick.

    Recommended world restarts in 1.6.

    I just saw Mead crafting a DSU in his most recent video, so yeah they do.

    Recommended world restarts in 1.6.

    The only RP2 thing that has no replacement yet are the frames, anyway. Which makes me wonder why, exactly, nobody else has ever tried to make anything like them. Ugocraft doesn't count.
