    I'm sorry to sound impatient, but...

    I think we will all be thankful of America's big guns if North Korea take it too far, and start nuking from orbit. Big guns and a twitchy trigger finger would be very helpful there.

    Mod/Item/Stuff Ideas

    Wait - you mentioned you had both soul shards and MFR installed? Wouldn't it have been easier to set up a basic MFR finder hooked up to either a zombie soul shard, or just a regular zombie spawned found in a dungeon, and then use that mob essessence in the mob spawned thing from MFR with a witch...

    I'm sorry to sound impatient, but...

    I know that Greg (German however) always misspelt acquired, and has had this reported to him various times, particularly in the description if you obtain his meta-tile entity thing by accident somehow, like with NEI telling you what a block is before it has loaded. What's annoying is that people...

    Steel Dust, what is it good for?

    Everyone to their own I guess. Steel is pretty common as dungeon loot anyway, so early game it's not that hard to find either, particularly for armour. Isn't alumite really good and cheap? It is made potentially with 4 oak logs, some Alumin(i)um and some iron or something? In a big construct...

    Pump isn't sucking up lava? weird color thing that comes from pump

    Yup, the mining wells pipe is diagonally striped black and yellow, and us intangible, however this mining pipe is solid, which is a good way to test if you we're using a texture pack. Didn't you see the name of the item when you selected it in your hand?

    Steel Dust, what is it good for?

    If configured correctly, GregTech makes the steel dust only smeltae in an industrial blast furnace. This should always be so, steel was balanced for this point in the tech tree, and changing that breaks progression. The rail craft blast furnace requires nether fortress access, so often I skip it...

    We should be able to ride in pipes.

    Why did "Punpunpun" remind me of "PonPonPon"? Geez that was a disturbing video. Let's not forget about some other GregTech machines such as the Assembly machine "natnif36 does not come pre-assembled" Or the wiremill, which could be something similar to the above post about Mary's lamb. The...

    How to spawn a Legend Oak Tree?

    Guess what happens when you chop one down with TreeCapitator or similar? The server was lagging like hell for 2 days. Don't touch big wood kids.

    Pump isn't sucking up lava? weird color thing that comes from pump

    Your link seems to be invalid, which may prevent help being given. I would help I could see what to help with :/ If you are trying to output into a tesseract or something, check that it's configured correctly and set to send only, and no-one is mistaking my using that frequency for something else.

    Yup Lambert, wrong, for us at least. I was at a spelling competition once, guess what the final word was? Yup. Aluminium, guess who had been reading too much American things? Me.

    Stop mobs spawning over a large area (DW20)

    Remember that with Redpower one can make diet covers, and AFAIK one can even make Grass covers with Immibis stuff. So perhaps using these may be useful? Also you mentioned ripping up and replacing the floor, a Wand of Equal trade is your friend here. Remember that NEI apes you to see exactly...

    I'm sorry to sound impatient, but...

    Yes, yes everyone digs at Soaryn's "Aluminum" spelling (apparently Apple too) yet this is actually a valid American spelling. A few years ago one would write "Supher" yet nowadays it's been americanised into "Sulfer", so don't be surprised if Aluminium changes also. Honestly though, from what...

    Too much coal

    Personally, I spend all my coal on windmills. Many think that they are useless power generation, however loom up SpawnXs windmill engineering, and you will see how they are actually the most powerful green gen, by far. It takes a LOT of coal to set these up with GregTech. I set up a either...

    Automatic Crafting Table MKII

    I haven't touched that block much since 1.2.5, however the C button seems to clear whatever recipe is in the table, I haven't touch any of the other settings. Perhaps it's something to do with how the inventory is sided? Edit: Did some research, the OD button stands for ore-Dictionary, and...

    Favorite way to start MJ

    The main reason that many people use the hobbyist steam engine over the TE engine is due to seeing other people using it, however when run for an extended period of time, it is considerably more efficient in terms of fuel used - power generated. However, for short runs, the TE engines wins due...

    Automating Implosion Compressor with AE

    Yes, automating this without the router is remarkable simple, simply place an export bus set to move single item/craft on the side of the machine. Next, change the pattern to 1 iridium alloy ingot = 1 Iridium plate. Then place an import bus on a different side. This will work as the system will...

    Minium Stone Crafting in AE

    During my experience, the MAC does damage minium stones when crafting. However t does behave strangely when crafting with items that take damage, even its own quartz knife, and if there are multiple stones/knives in the system, it will always use the least damaged one when crafting.

    Auto feeding IC2 generators...

    However, placing an export bus directly under each generator would be very costly as an option. Connecting the export bus to a router, set to put items into the bottom, would be cheaper, both energy and resource wise. This solution would also be more easily expandable by simply adding more...

    Steel Dust, what is it good for?

    Steel dust is added by by GregTech, to prevent mods such as Traincraft making steel extemely easy to obtain, and therefore Steel dust is given instead as a result. The steel dust must be smelted in an Industrial Blast furnace therefore making this machine nessessary for progression. You could...
