I was not motivated enough to finish T3 or T4. Next time I play I will cheat the book rather than running around and scan all over again, even so it is easier after reading what should be done. I found it too boring move those symbols, craft more ink and combine primal aspects all over again...

I do not think people dislike BC, after all we all love filler, quarry, gates and assembly table. I did not have any issue with BC pipes. Personally I think it is something special to stand and watch how stream of resources from a quarry goes thru sorting system based on BC pipes. It symbolizes...

This is very interesting point. If we look at moded minecraft we can notice that general vector of mods points to the reduction of grinding. For instance vein miner and morph both enable quick start in the game and you can hardly find streamers without those modes. Plus after moving from...

[/offtop] Are you sure you have seen latest FTB packs? There are so many modern alternatives: boring machines, Arcane bores, MFFS/AE, MFR lasers, Steve's cars, Magic trees, and probably a bunch of alternatives from magic based mods which I am not aware of. Finally, you can always place Quarry+...

In Monster pack you can think about end game things. For instance with AE spatial pylons you can take your base as a memory card:) and then build flying base with MFFS. You can wonder around in various ages-dimensions with a base in the pocket. You can live without base following way of magic.

Rotary Craft skeleton spawner can give you all bones you might dream about, if you use MFR grinder you can feed essence to AutoSpawner so you can have even more bones.

I do not like IC2 because I could not find any use of it in the current Monster pack. Lack of gravichest and advanced solar simply cannot justify the need of alternative power supply grid. Nuclear reactors with current output and amount of babysitting are rather useless. TE offers wide service...

I copied my saves from Horizon to Technical and then to Monster. Not everything was fine, but at least I did not need to build all from the scratch, plus I copied a bunch of modes from Technical and Horizon into Monster.

I am an engineer, believe me I know the difference between complex and tedious :) If you have safe base then install Somnia mod, you can run such long lasting tests in matter of minutes:)

It only seems like. Nothing is complex, it is just adding a few extra gear boxes and shaft junctions:) The most challenging part is generate the first bucket of lubricant or fuel. Mechanical power is equivalent to EU voltage - rad/s and current - torque. Gear boxes are transformers and shafts...

Well, Modular power suite is OP, because you can rut and fly quickly, but apparently this is only one way to battle Nether with infernal mobs:) Autospawner from MFR is OP because annihilate the price of mob drops:) Laser drill from MFR is OP because you do not need to run with pickaxe any...

When you will build your first macerator or pulverizer normal people will run Quarry+ and Rotarary Craft Extractors for building Ballistic Missile for own Moon base or MFFS flying base:) You can Enjoy tedious grinding to get your basic machines by hoping in one day to get quarry, whereas, others...

This is only your opinion. In mod pack such as Monster this is the most exiting side of minecraft to build crazy complicated systems that involve components from multiple modes. If following your logic then AE integration with production machines is also cheating:)

Maxing all, i.e. 2MW output power.

I use two Pneumatic engines to feed one cross junction with subsequent 1:8 gear box (speed) then bevel gear and this is all. 10 Dynamos and 1 Aquious accumulator from TE keep the system running smoothly.

This is equivalent 11 Dynamos from TE or Biofuel generators (absolutely free fuel if you have right collection of farms delivering 9 kinds of bio matter) from MFR:) You spent more fuel to collect seeds. I found the best way to use RC machines to feed them via pneumatic engines. Simple and easy...

I really like the mess with power system between the mods:) This is absolutely amusing! Half day of straggling with explosive pipes led to unexpected result. To supply power for complete base including all machines from RC one needs only 1 (one)!!! Hydrokinectic engine! I needed 240 dynamos...

The ultimate goal is to attach transition planes under/around the flying base and mine/wood collection when you need to:) Strong boxes allows to pack even the most complicated base into one inventory. I did not look into modular force filed mode apparently they can allow doing so. Then it would...

Yes. After trying to place all TE machines I found that after taking off all conduits are disconnected. I decided that is not a high price after all for the flying base:) After placing AE atop of all the complete ship simply disappear after taking off:) crash was following. In such was my dream...

I played with Horizon and TechWorld2 and now looking forward for long play with Monster, finally what I was waiting became reality. Thanks a lot for another great Pack! 0. TE is fantastic mode that getting better and better. I really do not understand those steel recepies coming back.... it...
