currently I don't see the point of having differently colored ores (and they glow in an annoying way). how about just one type and if needed recolor them with dyes. as for those tanks: for water or similar simple liquids, a railcraft tank is too expensive. but for the more expensive liquids...

just as a weird question: did anyone ask notch, if he allows that someone mods his game? no? why do modders want the right to choose wether someone can mod their mod or not... modding several mods in a modpack offers great opportunities to balance them together and to mix techtrees. but it...

the only problem I see so far at adding it: there was this problem when twilight forest was added to the direwolf20-pack, it demanded age9, which is already occupied by mystcraft, if someone starts exploring books. so, the same thing could happen if a new mod demands 15 different worlds. the...

sometimes (I experienced that once or twice) the multiblock structure just doesn't form without reason. then the only way is: break a part down and assemble it again. the easiest way to see if the multiblock structure forms is: watch the glass-tank blocks. after inserting the last block, they...

I once played on a server, where I had worldedit-access. fun-method to mine: take the wooden axe and mark an area (not to big). expand it into the ground. and then replace stone, gravel and dirt with air. and suddenly all the nice ore blocks were floating in the open mineshaft. if that isn't OP...

that's the point I was afraid of. it needs to be rebalanced for ftb/mindcrack, else it kills the balance like mekanismn did it with platinum....

the IC2 energy system works a bit in another way: the energy consumer (or storage) requests energy and then the energy generator sends energy to the requester. for example, if you have 3 MFSUs and a geothermal generator, the MFSUs request energy till they all are full. when the geothermal...

okay, the answer to that question is a bit buried: the best setup for a long running boiler is one with 36 boiler blocks. if you don't care about space and iron, go for LP boilers, they heat up faster. the note regarding those combustion engines: every other boiler than the 36HP is...

I for example wanted GT and started with mindcrack (actually, I wanted twilight forest too), just to find out, they don't have mystcraft in the pack. after a little research, I just moved the mystcraft file into the mindcrack modfolder. and it worked very well. at todays situation, I just...

this could be a new must have as a mod. the neatest part is (in my opinion) that it interacts very well with other mods. since I play around with GT in mindcrack, I would like to see some sort of preference system. like for example glass fiber cables can be crafted through various recipes, but...

since GT already adds a lot of chemical compounds and FTB is a set of modpack that takes care of how mods interact, I think it would be a neat idea if those two mods interact too. especially that it's not suddenly possible to squeeze tons of iridium out of cobblestone, or something like this.

I read a week ago or so, that checkerboard-worlds are great bee ages. you get 2 alternating biomes every chunk, and those biomes are free to choose. so something hot and dry and something medium-cool and humid should do the trick. I once found a world that even had 4 biomes in checkerboard, one...

may I ask about different fuels? I'm thinking of setting up a boiler, and setting it's fuel supply up by using a treefarm is just a bit weird/OP currently I think of lithium as the basic fuel, since it is virtually infinite (every red rock biome contains tons of it). the other idea is...

there is an easy test to see if that happens. write down the size of your world. log in, let it run. never move to unexplored areas. log out, write down the new size of the world. did it change? especially, is it larger now?

I never tested that, but I read that a nuclear reactor + railcraft loaders/unloaders make a pretty good automated breeder. those loaders/unloaders should be capable of running a standard reactor too. as long as there are no free spaces where uranium cells shouldn't go. with their filters, you...

just a weird idea: would it be possible to adjust sealevel? once it was set to 64 because the world height was 128. but now the world is 256 high, and sealevel is still at 64. I love to dig around, the deeper the better... if the sealevel is at 100 or 128, it still leaves a lot of space for...

is the tunnelbore still sending items through the enderchest? if yes: who cares, where that thing is. if no: you made something wrong and even if you know the place where it is right now, there might not be anything you can do for it. the only thing I can think of, which would really...

one simple tip, when you want to set up higher tier energy storage systems: ruby can act as a replacement for diamond in the energy crystal recipe and those blue sapphires act as a replacement in the lapotron recipe. this way, MFEs and MFSUs are way cheaper and you can even craft the nano...

@egor66: or even worse, if the admin gets angry, he could ban the player. there are enough possibilities for a setup that allows the player to move large amounts of items around. the only thing with those carts is: if the player needs to travel ~1000 blocks, that means 63 chunks distance...

but on the other hand, you can set up thermopiles. just build them, and they generate endlessly energy. without the need of sunlight or fuel. they even don't consume the lava which is required close to the thermopile.
