    Rare Mystcraft Symbols?

    I'm not really sure, sorry. I think they're available, but I haven't yet delved into age diving yet.

    Need some tips!

    The most immediately obvious advice is to start using Redpower microblocks.

    [DW20 pack] Nifty multi-mod blaze loop

    Pahimar did say something cryptic at some point (I think it was in the MC forum thread) that the Blaze Rod dupe trick wasn't going to work with his finished system. I'm not sure how he plans to manage that.

    ~Ultimate Pack~

    There's a big difference from setbacks to ETA estimates, miscommunication between team members, and Slowpoke101 misleading people about the mod creator of Ars Magica's willingness to give permission once compatibility is fully settled. There has to be at least some interest in there from the mod...

    Pulverizer is better than Macerator In GregTec

    4 Copper, 4 Tin, and 9 Iron (11 if you go with the Induction Smelter instead) is not cheaper than 2 Gold, and you can get straight to mining for the metals rather than spend time hunting for rubber after an unlucky spawn. That's the starting costs for ore processing with the default recipes, not...

    Ars Magic help

    When I looked at the Ars Magica thread about this, it seemed like the incompatibility issue is a type that a simple config change can't fix. My recommendation is to just keep an eye on the Ars Magica thread on the Minecraft forums and wait for the maker to state he's got it fixed.

    Forestry & RP 101

    I love how elegantly simple that is. I'm eagerly anticipating a segment on a multistory Peat Form.

    Pulverizer is better than Macerator In GregTec

    Oh, right, something I forgot to mention earlier. For the basic metal ores, the Induction Smelter trumps the Pulverizer. Both are needed to actually put the Rich Slag to use, but going with the Induction Smelter first pays out more in the long-run.

    What is going to happen to FTB once the MOD-API is done?

    People will still use mod packs because, unlike picking through a huge list of all mods, mod packs are (hopefully) intelligently put together and consist of mods that compliment each other, manage to keep out of each others' way, and create a more cohesive experience. A balance-tested and...

    Pulverizer is better than Macerator In GregTec

    GregTech gives it that capability, from what I can tell, so considering it's supposed to be a hardmode mod... take that up with Greg. I'm assuming you're using the Mindcrack pack and not your own installation. Thermal Expansion has options in its config for alternative crafting recipes for the...

    disabling NotEnoughItems

    Go into your inventory screen and click on the Options button at the lower left. You can change its mode there, or disable it.

    [Direwolf20 v2] Where to find copper and tin

    I saved this list from another thread, but as I did so for personal use, I didn't copy down the name of the person that assembled it...: Copper: 40-75 Iron: 20-40 (+0-63) Lead: 20-40 Silver: 15-35 Tin: 25-50 Diamonds: 0-16 Gold: 0-32 Ruby: 0-32 Sapphire: 0-32 Apatite: 16-88 Emerald: 4-32 Coal...

    Two platinum == Limitless iridium

    Firstly, I wasn't making a comment on commonality, I was making a comment on the nature of being "limitless" with a basic comparison. Any of the other ores would have worked; don't get hung up on Iron. Secondly, Greg could have ignored the Ore Dictionary for his Platinum, as I pointed out. He...

    Mystcraft grief potential

    Tell me your secrets. I must learn such strange sorcery. It would help ever so much on my own hardcore attempts.

    Two platinum == Limitless iridium

    That's only as "limitless" in the way Iron Ore in the ground is. That's actually finite, and while it is practically limitless, you have to keep hunting more, and more, and more ore down, and sacrifice what could have been more Iron, or Copper, or Silver, or Lead, or Tin in order to get more of...

    ~Ultimate Pack~

    Direwolf's videos and Slowpoke's streams seem to indicate that Slowpoke and the creator of Ars Magica are in communication, the mod creator is working on Forge compatibility, and it sounds like getting everything playing nicely with each other is the actual remaining limiter.

    T1 Steam Engines - TE or RC?

    Most efficient? The Hobbyist Steam Engines by far. It seems to me you'd have to use a Boiler to get anything more solid-fuel efficient. Hobbyist Steam Engines only reach a top speed of 1.6 MJ/t whereas the TE Steam Engines get 2 MJ/t, and the Hobbyist Steam Engine is a just a little bit slow...

    Suggest Mods for FTB Here

    I think Scapegoat4 is referring to Corn and Hanequin(sp?), which are both from Xycraft.

    Help With Geothermal Generators

    Is your MFE pointed toward the cables or away from them? Where's the dot?

    Pipe juncture woes

    Is there a pipe running from the back of your tank, or can tanks actually feed directly into a boiler like that?
