    Am I the only one who uses bronze armour?

    I've never seen anyone use it even though its a really good early-game armour. It lasts at least as long as iron, gives the same amount of protection as diamond, and isn't exactly expensive. Its more expensive now after the forestry bronze nerf but its still a hell of a lot cheaper than diamond...

    Nuclear Bomb Resistance Testing

    I should add nuclear reactor explosions are actually more powerful than nukes (oddly, considering how much cheaper they are to make). They have an explosive power of 45, with 35 for nukes. You should probably test them as well.

    ultimate solar helmet

    Yes! Who needs solar when you can produce 5440eu/t with a single reactor! (If you want to see how you should check out this thread on the IC2 forums, there's some interesting stuff on there). By the way, geothermal would be fine if it wasn't for that damn nether:mad:.

    Rubber tree farming

    Why did they have to change the farms in the 1st place? The only real difference now is they're more complicated to set up (although this could be due to the lack of any decent guides). I know the new farms are more expensive, but its not hard to change the cost of a certain item.

    Problems with my rotary macerator.

    The gap behind the induction furnace, compressor + extractor is a row of copper cable.

    Problems with my rotary macerator.

    I had a lever, guess I should have mentioned that (although it should be obvious).

    Problems with my rotary macerator.

    Just now I upgraded my macerator to a rotary macerator. For some reason, it isn't getting enough power, except it is. Even though the 512eu/t my MFSU puts out is more than enough energy to keep my machines running (in theory), for some reason the rpm of my rotary macerator goes up for a bit when...

    Good base designs?

    Does anyone know a good way to design a base? I don't mean the material its made out of, but rather its shape. I'm tired of giant cubes (i'm not a very creative person). I'm on the mindcrack pack if it matters.

    Mining laser doesn't make any noise?

    A soung bug? But hasn't it been like this for ages? It hasn't made any sound for as long as I can remember. I only remembered to post something about it just now.

    Mining laser doesn't make any noise?

    As the title says, my mining laser isn't making any sound when I fire it. I've looked through the configs to if there's anything that disables it, but i've found nothing. Can anyone help?

    Help with forestry multifarm

    Ok so I'm trying to make a (manual) combined wheat and rubber farm, on the largest configuration, but it won't work. I've got a gearbox connected to a bunch of engines so its got plenty of power, i've got some aqueous accumulators giving it water via a valve, and i've got hatches to...

    Question regarding AESUs

    Can you? How do you do that? I've never seen this mentioned anywhere else. EDIT: You heard wrong, it says on the gregtech wiki there's only one IDSU network, like with vanilla ender chests.

    Question regarding AESUs

    Are you being sarcastic? For your information i've been playing on the mindcrack pack since shortly after it was released, and the beta pack for even longer (When the mindcrack pack came out I didn't want to abandon my world so I just gave myself the stuff with NEI). I haven't got much else to...

    Question regarding AESUs

    Except IDSUs share their power, so you can't have more than 1b eu with them. AESUs on the other hand... And yes, I got them legit (seriously, with this fusion reactor making iridium is cake).

    Question regarding AESUs

    Ok so I just built over 1000 AESUs to store the power comign from my fusion reactor. However, there's a problem: I would like to set their outputs tp 2048eu/t so the power will flow between them as fast as possible, but changing it on each one manually is a royal pain in the arse. Is there a way...

    Epic Fail stories

    Had a sorting machine connected to my quarry via a chest. Spent ages trying to get it to work... several hours later, realised the machine was the wrong way round :confused:.

    How to fill in walls?

    Here's the situation: my quarry has just finished digging its hole (full-size), and I want to turn the hole its made into my new basement. However, I don't like the idea of going around and filling in the floor/walls with block of my choice by hand. Is there a way to do it automatically?

    Fusion reactor

    I've got ~50 AESUs ready just for it (I think by the time you can get a fusion reactor things like energy storage are a non-issue).

    Fusion reactor

    I assume the lack of any response means that no-one uses fusion reactors (understandable considering their cost), but it means that i'm alone in this venture :(. I have seen guides regarding fusion reactors but they were all made before the reactors were updated.
