    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Direwolf20 1.2.smth (haven't updated to the latest). It's one version below the latest pack, but all other NEI recipes work just fine, so I don't know if that is the problem...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Anyone know why AE2 recipes don't show in NEI? I know some things like the fluix crystals don't have a "recipe" but I can't even see how to craft the ME controller...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Can someone help me to get started with thaumcraft reseach? I try to scan simple items, but I frequently run into "you need to learn about life" (not exact message) but I have no idea what items I need to scan for the life aspect. In short, can someone tell me what items I should scan to...

    Tree farming

    I considered getting a turbine, and I likely will once I get enough blutonium *whatever those blue ingots are* (not really willing to directly convert yellorium via the yellorium + sand recipe), but my farm itself is sort of struggling to produce enough wood/charcoal to keep the three boilers on...

    Tree farming

    There are a variety of mods that allow for automated farming, and from one of my previous threads, I found out that a fair number of people rely on tree farms for power (it was the 3rd most popular option). Currently, my setup involves a 10x10 MFR oak tree farm (using a single planter and...

    What mod are those slanted blocks from? *the blocks used in the ramps and such*

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    So, I'm aware that there is a config file somewhere that allows new ores to be generated in already-generated chunks. NOTE: by "new" I mean ores that are from a mod that was added to the world after some chunk had been generated, ie. if I added Magic Crops, essence ore would be able to spawn in...

    Need to find a mineshaft/dungeon

    So, I've been looking all over the place for a mineshaft or a dungeon (of which I have found a grand total of 0) in hope of finding a Division Sigil so I get some cursed earth (partly because I want a proper general mob grinder, partly because I've never used one before). I went out and found a...

    How do YOU generate power?

    1) How on earth are you getting enough blaze rods to have a surplus of power from them? What are you using to spawn them? (I'm assuming you are not using Ender IO...) 2) Is it actually possible to get a surplus of energy from a lava fabricator? It takes 200,000 RF for a single bucket... and I...

    Oganizational systems

    To OP, I completely get what you mean with the "model train" analogy. I personally love Logistics Pipes, and used to use it to sort/organize/automate EVERYTHING. I really like the way it uses modules for different things, rather than blocks for different things, and one of my favorite things...

    Thermal Foundation makes blazes drop sulfur instead of blaze rods

    Actually, killing blazes with water DID give blaze rods at some point, though I don't remember exactly what version of MC that was. My guess is FTB Ultimate/Unleashed, round the time of MC 1.5.2 and 1.4.7. I know this to be a fact, as I myself built a spawner using a Tier 5 Soul Shards spawner...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Ah yeah, forgot that barrels are funny like that, thanks :) ALSO, may seem like a silly question, but how do you put an upgrade (ender quarry) into the quarry? My quarry is currently mining, and right-clicking with the upgrade just gives me mining info, shift right-clicking doesn't work either...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    How can I extract items from a Factorization barrel? Is it from the bottom? (I have an Ender IO item conduit on the top, and inserting items works fine, but it seems like the in/out option does not work on the top)

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Does anyone know what the actual power costs are for the spawner and grinder from Draconic Evolution? (Can't find proper values on wikis - I ask because I want to know if they are better to use then Ender IO Spawner + MFR grinder)

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    I'm not trying to get xp, I have enough from mining. I'm just trying to get my blaze rods... Well, is it possible to change the type of a powered spawner? Or only broken spawners?

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    I don't know for sure, but I think it is, because I watched around 15 blazes die, and I got 5 sulphur, 0 blaze rods... Can water turn blaze rods into sulphur? Is that a thing?!

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    Ok, so I JUST built a blaze farm (using powered spawner) that kills the blazes with water (classic blaze farm). However, I am not getting any blaze rods, only sulphur. Is there some change that makes it so that a player must kill a blaze to get a blaze rod??

    How do YOU generate power?

    I thought the forestry mutliblock farm was pretty cool until I found out every plant required fertilizer... I gave up on that cause I didn't have a quarry and couldn't reliably produce fertilizer. ALSO, 1) Is it normal that I have found 0 salt peter ore?? (after having mined quite a bit and...

    Ask a simple question, get a simple answer

    So, I noticed that in 1.7.10, in the NEI screen, MFR blocks display power usage as X RF/WK. Is that the same as RF/t or is WK something completely different? Cause quite frankly, harvesters requiring 240 RF/t seems way too much...

    Doesn't that take you to the end portal? I'm talking about those mine-like thing with the corridors (abandoned mines?)
